Beasts: Only I Can See the Hidden Evolution Path

Chapter 9: Gaining a New “Older Sister,” Making the Real Sister Jealous!



"You little handsome guy, if you’re not a beast doctor, don’t make wild claims~"

 

"Miss Qin, don’t listen to this kid’s nonsense," Luo Sanniang interjected.

 

Then, she leaned closer to Xiao Xingyu and whispered, "Silly boy, this person is the daughter of the president of the Cangqiong Guild. If you mess up the medicine and worsen the Three-Tailed Thunder Fox’s condition, you’ll be in big trouble!"

 

Xiao Xingyu smiled and said nothing; he had absolute confidence in his medical skills.

 

Qin Yanran stared at Xiao Xingyu and asked, "Are you sure you can cure my Lulu?"

 

Xiao Xingyu nodded.

 

"Okay then, I’ll trust you once. Let’s get the medicine."

 

Qin Yanran herself didn’t know why she felt a natural affinity towards Xiao Xingyu upon meeting him for the first time, making her instinctively choose to believe in this young man. Of course, it was also because she had spent a lot of money hiring several beast doctors, yet they hadn’t been able to cure the Three-Tailed Thunder Fox’s illness.

 

This time, encountering Xiao Xingyu, she decided to take a gamble.

 

"Sanniang, please prepare the medicine according to my prescription."

 

Luo Sanniang took out a pen and paper.

 

"One Ancestral Soul Flower, crushed and soaked in boiling water."

 

"Add a bottle of lightning attribute catalyst."

 

"Then add a complete water attribute magical beast crystal core and wait for it to dissolve."

 

"And the last step..."

 

Xiao Xingyu listed several ingredients and instructions, and Luo Sanniang wrote everything down, quickly preparing the medicine. The beast shop had everything they needed, and the preparation process only took a few minutes.

 

"Lulu, open your mouth."

 

Qin Yanran poured the prepared potion into the Three-Tailed Thunder Fox's mouth.

 

After taking the medicine, within a minute, the uncontrolled electricity on its body gradually diminished.

 

Its fierce gaze softened, and the three frayed tails slowly lowered.

 

Seeing this scene, Qin Yanran was overjoyed.

 

"Lulu, you’re better!"

 

The Three-Tailed Thunder Fox’s true nature was gentle; it obediently lay beside Qin Yanran, extending its tongue to lick her hand.

 

Next, it walked over to Xiao Xingyu, slightly bowed its head, and lifted its front paw in a gesture of gratitude.

 

Xiao Xingyu reached out and patted the Three-Tailed Thunder Fox’s head.

 

The fox squinted its eyes, looking very content.

 

Luo Sanniang was dumbfounded.

 

"This is incredible; this kid is truly a miracle doctor!"

 

Qin Yanran stepped in front of Xiao Xingyu, revealing a sweet smile.

 

"Thank you, little brother, for curing my Lulu's illness."

 

"You’re too kind, sister."

 

"What’s your name?"

 

"My name is Xiao Xingyu."

 

"I’m Qin Yanran. From now on, we’re friends—no, I’ll be your older sister!"

 

Qin Yanran’s bold personality led her to suddenly hug Xiao Xingyu.

 

He felt his head enveloped by something soft, nearly causing him to nosebleed.

 

"This woman is truly generous..."

 

"Little brother Xingyu, from now on, I’ll be your sister, and no one in Longyin City will dare to bully you!"

 

Xiao Xingyu weakly replied, "But I have a real sister."

 

"So what if you have a real sister? It’s perfectly reasonable for me to be your big sister!"

 

Xiao Xingyu, handsome and skilled in medicine, naturally attracted Qin Yanran’s favor, leading her to readily adopt him as her "younger brother."

 

Luo Sanniang chimed in, "Little handsome guy, being recognized by Miss Qin as her younger brother is quite a fortune!"

 

After that, Qin Yanran and Xiao Xingyu chatted, and upon learning that he had come from a small city to attend Qinglong Academy, she regarded him with even more admiration.

 

"You’re exceptionally talented and skilled in medicine; I’m quite proud to have you as my younger brother!"

 

"By the way, what did you come to the beast shop for?"

 

Qin Yanran got back to the point.

 

Before Xiao Xingyu could speak, Luo Sanniang jumped in.

 

"Miss Qin, little handsome guy came to buy fire attribute nutrients."

 

"But he’s from a small city and doesn’t have enough money, so..."

 

Luo Sanniang's interjection was more than just a response—it was practically a divine assist!

 

Qin Yanran pulled out her bank card and slapped it on the counter.

 

"Sanniang, there’s 500,000 in this card. Get your best quality fire attribute nutrients!"

 

"Of course, Miss Qin!"

 

Luo Sanniang dashed to the back warehouse, and a few minutes later, she returned, holding five fire attribute nutrients.

 

The quality of the nutrients varied, and so did the prices.

 

These were the highest quality fire attribute nutrients in the store, each priced at 100,000.

 

After packing the five fire attribute nutrients, Qin Yanran handed them to Xiao Xingyu.

 

"Sister, this isn’t appropriate..."

 

"Xingyu, you’re my younger brother now, and it’s only right for your sister to spend money on you!"

 

"Well, then I can only reluctantly accept it. Thank you, sister."

 

Xiao Xingyu feigned reluctance, but his actions were quicker than his words.

 

Luo Sanniang muttered from the side, "What a 'reluctant acceptance'!"

 

After receiving the gift from Qin Yanran, Xiao Xingyu mused internally.

 

"It seems this is the value of medicine; it can expand connections and help meet more influential people." 

 

Xiao Xingyu's Demon Eye could see through the status of magical beasts and......and he could also analyze treatment prescriptions.

 

This meant that in addition to being a beast master, he had also awakened the profession of a beast doctor.

 

Every beast master guild would eagerly need composite talents like Xiao Xingyu.

 

**Family Apartment.**

 

Xiao Ruoxue sat at the dining table, her expression uneasy.

 

The table was set with a sumptuous spread of four dishes and a soup, but the warmth was gradually fading.

 

"The food is getting cold; why hasn't Xiao Yu come back yet..."

 

Just as Xiao Ruoxue was about to go out to look for her brother, the door opened.

 

"Hey, Sis, I'm back!"

 

"You little rascal, why are you only back now? The food is almost cold; I’ll go heat it up for you!"

 

"It’s fine; I like it cold!" 

 

After sitting down, Xiao Xingyu picked up his chopsticks and began to eat ravenously.

 

Xiao Ruoxue rested her chin on her hands, watching him with a kind gaze.

 

"Silly boy, slow down; don’t choke."

 

Suddenly, Xiao Ruoxue frowned, her nose twitching as she caught a whiff of a woman’s fragrance lingering on Xiao Xingyu.

 

"Xiao Yu, did you go out on a date?"

 

"Sis, don’t say that! I just went to the beast shop and bought five high-quality fire attribute nutrients for Blackwind's advancement."

 

Xiao Ruoxue glanced at the backpack Xiao Xingyu had brought back.

 

"Those high-quality fire attribute nutrients aren’t cheap! Together, they must cost at least several hundred thousand. Where did you get the money?"

 

When it came to this, Xiao Xingyu had to tell the truth.

 

"Funny story, I helped a female beast master heal her beast's illness. Her name is Qin Yanran."

 

"When she was happy, she recognized me as her younger brother."

 

"The money for the fire attribute nutrients was paid by her."

 

"I’m still hungry; can you serve me another bowl of rice?"

 

"Sis, you..."

 

Xiao Xingyu's eating motion suddenly halted, and he trembled slightly.

 

"Sis, don’t look at me like that; I’m scared~"

 

Normally gentle and kind, Xiao Ruoxue always had a smile for her brother.

 

But at this moment, her gaze was as cold as ice.

 

"Well, Xiao Xingyu, you’ve recognized an older sister outside. What position does that leave me?"

 

"But you’re my biological sister; she’s just my 'older sister.'"

 

The atmosphere became tense, and Xiao Xingyu tried to change the subject.

 

"Sis, I’m hungry; can you get me another bowl of rice~"

 

"Oh, hungry? How about letting your 'older sister' serve you instead?"

 

"Sis~"

 

"Don’t call me that; I’m not your sister anymore. Your sister’s name is Qin Yanran now~"

 

Xiao Ruoxue threw off her apron and returned to her bedroom, locking the door behind her, the air thick with jealousy.

 

Xiao Xingyu was at a loss, laughing and crying at the same time.

 

"I just recognized an older sister; why do I feel like I’ve been caught cheating in a marriage?"
