You were given the ability to tame beasts, not to become a god-level breeder.

Unlike last time, Jiang Fan stayed in the Lotus God's territory for a very short time this time.

Feeling no weakness, I quickly stood up and looked towards the Lotus Fairy Pond.

The lotus pond was shimmering with light and color, and exuded an ethereal aura.

A phantom image of a lotus flower slowly emerged, then transformed into a delicate, beautifully sculpted little girl with a bun hairstyle.

When Zhuang Zhenyu and Li Gou saw this scene, their eyes reddened and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

The lotus fairy floated down to the shore, her body solidified, looking just like a real human little girl.

"Xiaoyu, how come you look older than your mom and dad?"

Lotus Fairy walked up to Zhuang Zhenyu and looked up at him.

He reached out to touch Zhuang Zhenyu's deeply lined cheeks.

In her memory, Zhuang Zhenyu was a man with smooth skin, whose voice made her fists itch.

And now.

Only the old man's face in front of him could vaguely make out what Xiaoyu used to look like.

Zhuang Zhenyu looked at her and saw that her appearance was unchanged; she was still the same Shouchao Sister from eighty years ago, just as he remembered her.

Tears streamed uncontrollably from the corners of my eyes.

He bent down, lowered his head, and felt the warmth of Lotus Fairy's small hand, a touch of family.

The warm sunshine illuminated the faces of the old and the young, and the breeze that stirred the lotus flowers in the Lotus Fairy Pond made everyone feel even warmer.

Seeing this, Zhu Huoyan, who was standing on the periphery, whispered to Fang Cunxing, "This is outrageous! Master actually dropped a little pearl. What's the relationship between this Lotus Fairy and Master?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Cunxing froze and looked up at the sky.

"Junior brother, why aren't you saying anything?"

"Master...the weather is nice today."

Zhu Huoyan wanted to say something more, but suddenly felt a death stare from Ji Gui.

"I guess I did a good deed."

Jiang Fan looked at the reunion of the siblings, whose appearances were vastly different, and gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

Without him, the Lotus Fairy's evolved form might never have been discovered.

The Lotus Fairy would have no chance of being resurrected, so naturally the heartwarming scene of their reunion in the human world today would not have occurred.

"Ahem, Sister Shouchao, do you still remember me?"

Li Gou coughed twice, walked to Zhuang Zhenyu's side, and squatted down.

He wasn't particularly sad; he just felt a sense of wonder.

An old friend from eighty years ago, still unchanged when seen again eighty years later.

of course.

Li Gou was even more curious about what Lotus Fairy would look like when she grew up.

Back when they were in the underground air-raid shelter, Zhuang Shouchao grew up instantly when he became Lotus Fairy.

But the body also became towering, and only two pairs of super-large, white, jade-like feet could be seen.

"Who are you?"

Lotus Fairy looked at Li Gou and frowned.

Zhuang Zhenyu straightened up, his eyes fixed on Li Gou, and a surge of energy flowed within his right foot.

This kick is going to be crazy.

"Li Gou, your brother's childhood friend, from the same neighborhood. Our parents both worked at the Spiritual Energy Restoration and Control Bureau eighty years ago."

"I don't remember." Lotus Fairy shook her head.

"I sent you ten boxes of Little Raccoon instant noodles back then!"

Li Gou suddenly had an idea and his eyes lit up.

"Oh, it's you!"

"I remember you, but you've grown old, even older than Xiaoyu."

Lotus Fairy pointed at Li Gou, and then remembered that there was indeed such a person as Li Gou.

The child who provided me with the most food and drink back then.

However, like Zhuang Zhenyu, he has gone from being a child to an old man, and his appearance is difficult to recognize in a short period of time.

then.

Jiang Fan felt that he hadn't blinked either.

Then Li Gou reached out and wiped his face.

Immediately afterwards, Li Gou's appearance changed.

The wrinkles on my face disappeared, and my skin became as soft and smooth as a baby's.

With sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, his jet-black hair grew from the top of his head at a visible speed, all the way to his waist.

In the blink of an eye.

Li Gou transformed from a frail old man into a vibrant young man.

If Jiang Fan hadn't witnessed it all with his own eyes, he truly wouldn't have been able to reconcile the image of the young man before him with that of Li Gou and Li Diantang.

"And now?"

Li Gou made a dashing head-flipping motion, bent over and reached out his hand, his laughter magnetic.

"Now I can see a bit of what he looked like when he was a child."

Lotus Fairy saw Zhuang Zhenyu's right foot begin to strike with great force, but she also answered Li Gou's question truthfully.

boom!

Zhuang Zhenyu's powerful kick, like kicking a ball, sent Li Gou flying high into the air.

Flying into the distant sky, Jiang Fan and the others could only see a small black dot.

Li Gou's shouts still echoed in the air: "I will come back again!"

"Sister Shouchao, can Hemu be resurrected?"

Zhuang Zhenyu glanced at Ji Gui, who seemed hesitant to speak, and then brought up the matter himself.

"Okay, give me the lotus seedlings."

Under normal circumstances, after the Lotus Fairy is resurrected, her strength will quickly recover to the divine level, at which point she can directly resurrect people through the Lotus Divine Realm.

However, this is an abnormal situation. Lotus Fairy's strength is restricted by Jiang Fan, and she can only recover to the eighth level of Black Iron Rank, and cannot be directly resurrected.

The soul brought out from the Lotus Divine Realm cannot exist in the world forever. The best way is to prepare a small lotus seed and let Hemu become a lotus demon.

Whether it can continue to evolve remains to be seen and requires further research.

Ji Gui had no objection to this; the best outcome would be for He Mu to be resurrected.

"Xiao Ji, come here quickly." Zhuang Zhenyu waved his hand hurriedly.

Ji Gui bent down and handed the small lotus seed to Lotus Fairy, his voice tense: "Thank you, Aunt."

"It's no trouble at all."

Lotus Fairy waved her hand, picked up the small lotus seed, and jumped back into the Lotus Fairy Pond.

After a while.

The Lotus Fairy returned to shore, and a cracking sound echoed from the Lotus Fairy Pond.

A lotus fairy stood up from the bottom of the pond. Surprisingly, unlike ordinary lotus fairies, the lotus fairy in which He Mu's soul resided did not have empty eyes, but rather the eyes of a living person!

"Sister Shouchao, you're amazing! You brought someone back to life!"

Li Gou returned at some unknown time, seemingly afraid of being kicked by Zhuang Zhenyu's right foot, his appearance reverting to the well-known old man.

Upon seeing this, they immediately began to praise it.

"Hemu!"

Their eyes met, and Ji Gui looked at the little lotus demon. From those familiar eyes, he sensed that it was He Mu!

The scene I had been longing for had actually come true!

"Senior Brother Ji, don't be in such a hurry!"

"Sister-in-law... Sister Hemu, don't worry!"

Seeing that the man and the lotus fairy were about to run, Jiang Fan quickly ran to the middle and shouted.

Calling her "sister-in-law" feels weird, since so many of my fellow students have partners and wives.

How should I greet them when I see them in the future?

It's fine if there's only one sister-in-law, but what if there are multiple of them?

Eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law... sixtieth sister-in-law?

and so.

Just call me "sister".

"Senior brother and his wife have reunited, junior brother, what are you doing?!"

Zhu Huoyan jumped out and accused Jiang Fan of being ignorant.

Zhuang Zhenyu, Li Gou, and the others looked at Jiang Fan, waiting for his explanation.

"The lotus fairy before the lotus fairy evolved was a lotus fairy that grew eyes after its withering and flourishing talent was specially triggered."

"Currently, Sister Hemu has grown eyes, and one of the necessary conditions for the Lotus Fairy's evolution is that the Lotus Fairy and its dependent object must simultaneously touch the mud at the bottom of the Lotus Fairy Pond. How about having Senior Brother Ji go into the Lotus Fairy Pond and give it a try?"

Jiang Fan said.

"feasible."

"Hemu is special; it might just evolve."

Zhuang Zhenyu and Li Gou nodded at the same time.

"No wonder my junior brother was accepted as a disciple by our master as soon as he entered university."

"While I was still preparing to cry, he thought of letting Sister Hemu try the possibility of evolution."

Zhu Huoyan shook his head and sighed.

Fang Cunxing's expression was complicated. Even though he didn't say it, he had to admit in his heart that his junior brother was cut out to be a trainer!

then.

He Mu remained in the Lotus Fairy Pool, and Ji Gui's figure flashed as he entered the Lotus Fairy Pool.

The moment his feet touched the mud at the bottom of the pond.

An invisible aura emerged from the Lotus Fairy Pool, and He Mu's body emitted an evolutionary beam of light unique to the Lotus Fairy.

"It really works!"

"This is the Lotus Fairy's second evolution path!"

"Impressive, junior brother!"

Zhuang Zhenyu and Li Gou were moved, Zhu Huoyan and Fang Cunxing exclaimed in surprise, and Ji Gui stared with his mouth slightly open at the evolving He Mu in the pillar of light.
