Chapter 243: Comrade Sun Hongyi's Dilemma
Sun Ruirui needed to consider Comrade Sun Hongyi's feelings, so she didn't insist on going to Sandzhou Beast Academy to study.
Comrade Sun was relieved, thinking he had successfully persuaded his niece.
Of course, the truth, or rather, Sun Ruirui's true thoughts, were known only to herself.
Through the shared Vitality Orb, the little girl gained the life force of the Imperial Potential Rank Companion Beast, the Tide Sea Spirit, allowing her to safely pass through this crisis and successfully awaken the extremely terrifying Beast Taming Talent, the Ocean Catastrophe.
With great gains, there was inevitably significant consumption.
It was evident that after completely awakening her Beast Taming Talent, the Golden Orb that emerged from Sun Ruirui had become noticeably duller, losing the luster it had when it was first expelled.
Jin Yu retrieved her Vitality Orb, and her condition visibly deteriorated.
The consumption was indeed enormous.
There was nothing that could be done about it.
Fortunately, the Golden Orb had only suffered from excessive consumption and had not sustained any other damage. With some nurturing, it should recover.
"Brother Qian, Jin Yu..." The little girl glanced at Jin Yu and then spoke with some embarrassment.
Li Qian understood Sun Ruirui's intention and smiled, waving his hand dismissively, "It's fine. My main purpose for coming to Zhonghai City was to understand the Evolution Path from Golden Pearl Bud to Tide Sea Spirit."
"Now, the evolution method has been grasped, and moreover..." He deliberately glanced at Comrade Sun as he spoke, then continued, "the evolution defect has been compensated, which is already the greatest gain for me."
The implied meaning of Li Qian's words was crystal clear.
Comrade Sun couldn't help but twitch his mouth upon hearing this.
What does that mean?
You're mocking me again! If it weren't for the fact that you saved my niece, I would have kicked you out long ago.
But for some reason, as he silently mocked, he also felt a bit of heartburn.
After researching for so many years, he had never found this defect, yet Li Qian had only just come into contact with it for a short time and had already made up for it.
The new generation surpasses the old; am I going to be left behind and crushed?
Comrade Sun had mixed feelings, while on the other side, Sun Ruirui still felt guilty towards Li Qian, "But Jin Yu is your Companion Beast."
As she spoke, she focused her gaze on Jin Feng, "Why don't you take Jin Feng with you?"
To rescue herself, Jin Yu had already completed the contract.
Returning it to Li Qian was basically impossible.
However, Jin Feng, after evolving, had not yet formed a contract with a Beastmaster, so exchanging it with Li Qian was still possible.
This was the most genuine thought in the little girl's mind at that moment.
Upon hearing this, Li Qian smiled and shook his head, "Never mind, I've already grasped the evolution method, and I can evolve as many Tide Sea Spirits as I want."
Without pausing, he continued, "Most importantly, Jin Feng and Jin Yu have lived here for many years and are already accustomed to it. I don't want them to leave their familiar surroundings."
The value of a single Imperial Potential Rank Tide Sea Spirit was self-evident.
However, for Li Qian, since he had already mastered the evolution method, it wasn't that hard to come by.
Additionally, his Mental Strength level had not yet reached the Overlord Rank.
Even if he achieved a breakthrough, there would still be many potential candidates for contracts, like Xiao Hui...
Therefore, he genuinely lacked the energy to cultivate another Companion Beast.
Since that's the case, it's better to just leave it at the Red Bridge Estate and stay by Xiao Yatou's side.
Oh right, before leaving, there's something I need to tell you.
Just as he was about to leave, Li Qian suddenly remembered something. With a peculiar smile, he waved at Jin Yu, "Jin Yu, come here."
Facing the person who helped him complete his evolution, Jin Yu didn't hesitate and walked straight over.
Li Qian asked Jin Yu to lower his body, whispered something in his ear, and finally asked for confirmation, "Promise me, can you?"
"Wuuu..."
Jin Yu let out a unique cry of the Tide Sea Spirit, like a mournful wail, and then nodded heavily, indicating that he would definitely keep it a secret.
After giving his instructions, Li Qian prepared to leave. However, just as he lifted his foot, two Skyway Flycars sped by at low altitude.
The Skyway Flycars came to a stop, and five young men and women in uniforms stepped out.
"What happened here? Who called the Public Security Bureau?" The leader, a young man, asked.
"It was me. Did you see that person?" Li Qian raised his hand and then pointed to a spot in front, "A heretic of the Ancient Deity Sect, this scene was caused by him."
To avoid going to the Public Security Bureau to record a statement, he even mentioned a revered elder, "Oh right, Elder Li Sheng from the Teleportation Center knows everything. In fact, we were able to escape unharmed thanks to his timely rescue."
Li Qian's implication was very clear.
The fact that Elder Li Sheng came to rescue them personally at least proved that their relationship was not shallow.
"Alright, we'll take him back first." The young man, after hearing Li Qian's words, pointed to Liao Bo, who had turned into a pile of mud, and instructed, "Take him away."
"Someone who gets things done..." Li Qian couldn't help but mutter under his breath when the young man didn't ask him to give a statement.
Not long after, the five of them left the scene with Liao Bo, who was still unconscious.
...
After the Public Security Bureau left, Li Qian didn't stay long either. Soon, he also departed from the Red Bridge Estate.
Not long after Li Qian left, Old Sun fell into a daze.
He kept flipping through various documents, muttering to himself.
"Where did the problem occur?"
"What is the flaw?"
His words were like a self-interrogation, but as he thought further, he couldn't find the answer.
The main reason Li Qian was so condescending in front of him was that he had completed the research on the evolution from Golden Pearl Bud to Tide Sea Spirit, filling in the missing piece.
This was the source of his newfound confidence.
Old Sun was well aware that to straighten his back again, he had to find this evolutionary flaw and make up for the shortcomings.
Otherwise, the next time he met that kid, he might be ridiculed again.
In the end, unable to figure out the answer, he had no choice but to turn his attention to Jin Feng and Jin Yu, who had already evolved...
Perhaps Ah Hai, who also knew about the evolution, had some information.
Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate and headed straight for the little cove in the northeastern corner.
Ever since the evolution, Jin Yu, who had already been contracted by Sunirui, and Jin Feng also resided here.
