My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

"Come out, Mingtong."

As the light faded, a small, snow-white beast appeared before everyone.

The pet named Mingtong resembled a small fox, with a crystal-clear vertical pupil on its forehead, which was staring intently at the Spirit Curse Snake.

Xia Yu recognized it.

This is an appraised pet. It has almost no combat ability, but its vertical pupil can see through the potential and aptitude of most pets.

Chapter 24 Snake's Departure from Home

"Ming Tong, have it appraised."

A soft blue light shone from the vertical pupil on Ming Tong's forehead, and a thin ray of light shot out, enveloping the spirit snake.

The cursed snake tilted its head, but did not dodge.

Immediately, a faint halo appeared on its dark purple scales.

Ming Tong's vertical pupils flickered violently.

The blue light went from soft to blinding, and the entire identification beam began to tremble.

The little fox's body trembled, and fine beads of sweat appeared on its forehead.

Immediately, the luster of the identification beam also slowly turned golden.

"This is..."

Zhou Zhengming's expression changed.

He had seen Mingtong react this way before, but very rarely.

For ordinary pets, the identification results take a maximum of three seconds.

The vertical pupils of Mingtong will display different colors depending on the race level.

White light is low-level, green light is mid-level, blue light is high-level, purple light is extraordinary, orange light is the overlord, and red light is a calamity.

And gold... is the Immortal level.

Zhou Zhengming let out a deep breath.

Although, due to his good manners, he did not show any disdain after entering the room.

But deep down, he didn't believe that such an ordinary roadside pet shop could produce a top-tier pet with an immortal-level species.

But now the facts are undeniable, leaving him no choice but to acknowledge them.

The spirit snake let out a "whoosh," having no concept of the golden light.

It turned its head to look at Xia Yu, its eyes filled with "When will this end? I want to go back to sleep."

Xia Yu smiled slightly.

The snake involved didn't seem as agitated as the bystanders.

Over there, Ming Tong's vertical pupils gradually lost their light, and she turned around and nodded to Zhou Zhengming.

"It is indeed of the Immortal level."

Zhou Zhengming pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, concealing the complex expression on his face.

He turned his head and said softly, "Miss, there's no problem."

Lin Sisi didn't seem surprised at all.

Whether it was the previously "provocative" skill tutorial, the magical energy cube, or the spirit snake beating up the baby fire lizard that I just witnessed.

They had already subtly told her that there was nothing wrong with the cards.

This appraisal is just to put my wallet at home at ease.

"transfer."

She handed the black card to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu took the black card, his heart involuntarily racing a few beats per minute.

Fifteen million...

This was a huge sum of money that he had never touched in his past or present life.

Okay, let alone touching it, Xia Yu wouldn't even dare to dream of winning the lottery with that amount in his dreams.

And now, this money is about to arrive, and my assets will take off immediately!

He pulled out a POS machine from under the counter. Although it was an old relic left by his great-aunt, it was still fully functional.

"drop"

Xia Yu placed the card into the card slot, and the sound of the card being swiped was crisp and pleasant.

Then, he entered the amount and handed it to Lin Sisi.

Lin Sisi pressed the password.

"Ding~"

A text message notification sound came from my phone.

Xia Yu swiped to unlock his phone, and the message that 15 million had been transferred into his bank account left him momentarily dazed.

He had truly transformed from a pet shop owner on the verge of bankruptcy into a multi-millionaire.

Xia Yu lowered his head, staring at the balance on his phone screen, the corners of his mouth curving upwards wider and wider.

No, you can't laugh.

It's unprofessional to grin in front of clients.

Xia Yu quickly put away his phone and coughed twice: "Ahem, the money has arrived. It's been a pleasure doing business with you."

He turned to look at the Spirit Serpent, preparing to hand it over to Lin Sisi.

The Cursed Serpent seemed to realize something.

It tilted its head and looked at Xia Yu for a few seconds, then at Lin Sisi, and then back at Xia Yu.

The languor in his heterochromatic eyes gradually faded, replaced by unease.

"Waaah..."

The cursed snake suddenly bit Xia Yu's clothes.

Xia Yu was taken aback.

He looked down at the little snake that was biting his clothes and refusing to let go, and his eyes gradually softened.

The Spirit Serpent has been following him ever since it hatched from its pet egg yesterday.

Although we haven't spent much time together, it's normal to feel reluctant to part with it suddenly.

However, there's nothing that can be done; Xia Yu runs a pet shop, and these kinds of partings will probably happen frequently in the future.

"Snake."

Xia Yu crouched down, his voice softening, "Give in."

"woo"

The cursed snake bit even tighter into the hem of Xia Yu's clothes, its tail coiled around his wrist, refusing to let go no matter what.

Lady Xueling stood aside, quietly watching the scene unfold, without stepping forward.

Lin Sisi didn't say anything, she just waited quietly.

She knew that this moment belonged to Xia Yu and the Spirit Curse Serpent.

"obedient."

Xia Yu reached out and placed his palm on the icy head of the spirit snake, gently stroking it.

"Following the Beastmaster, you can see a wider world. She will give you the best resources, the strongest opponents, and an infinitely possible future. These are things you cannot achieve here."

The Spirit Curse Serpent looked up at him, its heterochromatic pupils reflecting Xia Yu's face.

"You will become very strong."

Xia Yu said softly, "Besides, it's not like we'll never see each other again. Your Beast Tamer is a regular customer of our shop, right, Sisi?"

Lin Sisi nodded and said, "Yes, I promise you, I will take you home to see Manager Xia often in the future."

"Waaah..."

Perhaps it's the inherent desire for strength within the pet, or perhaps it's the double guarantee from Xia Yu and Lin Sisi.

The serpent loosened its grip on the hem of her garment.

It slowly slid off Xia Yu's wrist and landed on the counter.

"Go."

Xia Yu stood up and took a half step back. "Your beast tamer is waiting for you."

The cursed serpent finally moved.

It slid off the counter and swam close to the ground towards Lin Sisi.

Lin Sisi squatted down and extended her palm.

The spirit snake lingered in her palm for a moment, then turned back to look at Xia Yu one last time, as if bidding a final farewell.

Then it lowered its head, letting Lin Sisi pick it up.

Lin Sisi closed her eyes, and a pale blue light emanated from her body.

The fluctuations from the opening of the Beast Taming Space rippled through the air, filling it with a warm energy.

The cursed serpent offered no resistance.

Its body transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into Lin Sisi's beast-taming space.

As the light faded, the store became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Lin Sisi opened her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them.
