Chapter 294: Aunt Han Ke
Chapter 294: Aunt Han Ke
Upon learning the truth, Li Qian couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, but upon further reflection, it was quite normal for such a situation to occur.
Previously, although Li Qian had demonstrated exceptional breeding talent and had successfully bred powerful companion beasts like the Green Scaled Dragon and the Frostfire Maggot, the Imperial and Overlord potentials were ultimately worlds apart.
Being able to research the evolutionary methods of Overlord-potential companion beasts didn't mean one could do the same for Imperial-potential beasts, and it was understandable that Iron Lao didn't hold out much hope.
With a bitter smile, he spread his hands and looked at Irina beside him, "Well, you might not know about my situation. My temporary emblem has already been taken away by our instructor."
"Now, I can't even leave Cloudsky City, so I might not be able to go with you to see Iron Lao for the time being."
In his heart, Li Qian was quite willing to meet Iron Lao, as it had been a while since they last saw each other.
However, it seemed a bit difficult.
Upon hearing this, Irina smiled lightly, unconcerned, "Come with me, don't worry about that. Even if you don't, as long as I want to bring someone into the Dimensional Plane, I can do it, even if it's an ordinary person who hasn't awakened their Beast Space."
Li Qian fell silent upon hearing this. Indeed, some people could make others feel inferior.
This incident also made Li Qian realize that the Beastmaster Association and the Federal Government likely granted considerable power to Beastmasters with stronger abilities.
Of course, if Li Qian didn't agree and didn't want to go, Irina couldn't force him.
This was Cloudsky City, after all!
With a Legendary Beastmaster stationed here, no one would dare cause trouble.
The two stood there without taking immediate action. After a while, seeing that Irina still hadn't moved, a puzzled look appeared on Li Qian's face, "Why are we still waiting here? Aren't we going to Feihe City?"
Irina pointed in a certain direction, her voice calm and unhurried, "We still need to wait. I'll introduce you to someone."
Li Qian's face remained expressionless, but his eyes revealed a hint of confusion.
At this moment, who else would be going to Feihe City with him and Irina?
Soon, he thought of a possibility—perhaps it was one of the essential conditions for evolution... the Beastmaster who could use the Life Rain skill.
Li Qian stopped his wild thoughts and remained silent, patiently waiting without showing any signs of impatience.
After about five minutes, a graceful figure appeared at the street corner in front of them.
Looking at the woman who had appeared at the street corner, Li Qian couldn't help but glance at Irina beside him, his eyes filled with curiosity.
As he looked at the woman who had suddenly appeared before him, a ridiculous thought popped into Li Qian's mind, but he quickly suppressed it.
How could that be possible?! But looking at the woman who was around thirty years old, definitely not over forty based on her appearance, and seeing the resemblance between her and Irina, which was about seventy to eighty percent, Li Qian couldn't help but make some connections.
The woman approached with a smile, her movements graceful and unhurried.
When the woman reached his side, Li Qian! What's up?" he finally couldn't hold back and asked.
Regarding his absurd thought, he ultimately didn't voice it, keeping it to himself. What if he guessed wrong? It would be embarrassing.
In response to Li Qian's question, the woman didn't speak, maintaining her elegant posture. Irina stepped forward and stood beside the woman, both facing Li Qian. She slowly said, "Let me introduce you to my mother, Han Ke!"
Upon hearing Irina's introduction, Li Qian's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
Before this, he had already guessed the result, but he couldn't bring himself to believe it. Now, with confirmation, he felt like his entire worldview was about to be subverted.
He looked at Irina's mother, Han Ke, the elegant woman before him, and couldn't help but question, "Wait, you're saying this lady is your mother?"
Irina glanced at Li Qian for calling her mother that, and coldly warned, "Don't take advantage of me!"
"Hello, Li Qian. I've heard a lot about you." The elegant woman, Han Ke, greeted him.
"You've heard of me?" Li Qian was left bewildered by her words.
"I'm also a teacher at Shazhou Beastmaster University." Han Ke smiled faintly and explained, "I've heard that the Cultivation Academy spent a huge price to recruit a top-tier cultivation genius. Now it seems that the reputation is well-deserved. At such a young age, he can research the evolution method from Golden Bud Seedling to Tidal Sea Spirit."
In this regard, Han Ke's shock was genuine. When she first heard the news, she was indeed very surprised.
"It's mainly the research of Professor Sun Hongyi from Zhonghai Beastmaster University." Li Qian humbly stated, "I was just lucky. I found a small deficiency in the evolution and made up for it."
After a brief conversation with Ms. Han Ke, Li Qian quickly changed the subject. Taking advantage of her inattention, he secretly asked Irina, "She's really your mother. Are you sure you want to match her with Old Man Tie? Isn't this a bit mismatched?"
Hearing this, Irina glanced at her mother and then nodded in agreement, "They do look a bit mismatched, but they're actually not that far apart in age."
"Not that far apart in age?" Li Qian's mouth formed an "O" shape, as if he had heard something unbelievable. He couldn't help but add in his mind, 'I think they could be father and daughter.'
Li Qian took the opportunity to talk to Irina while Ms. Han Ke wasn't paying attention, but the latter heard it clearly.
With a smile on her face, she redeemed Old Man Tie a little, "Actually, Brother Ruhua was quite handsome when he was young."
"Look."
As she spoke, she showed her phone, and on it was a photo of a young man in his twenties, with a bright smile on his face.
From this young man, Li Qian vaguely saw a hint of Old Man Tie's shadow.
Looking at the photo on the phone, Li Qian couldn't help but sigh after a moment, "What has he been through these years?"
Ms. Han Ke's face showed a hint of anticipation, and she guessed, "If his strength level can break through to the Imperial Rank, his appearance should improve."
Her words reminded Li Qian, who immediately asked, "Ms. Han Ke, may I ask what your strength level is?"
Since her real age was similar to Old Man Tie's, and the situation before him was very different from what he had imagined, the reason was likely only one... Her strength was far beyond his imagination.
Ms. Han Ke didn't speak, but Irina spoke on her behalf, explaining, "My mother's strength has reached the middle stage of the Imperial Rank."
Hearing this, Li Qian couldn't help but mutter, "No wonder Old Man Tie felt ashamed."
At this moment, he understood Old Man Tie a little!
