103: Contract, Black Qilin [modification has been made before, one more]
“Oh, by the way, Son, how many days has it been since you contracted your Beast?”
Li Yao thought for a moment, then calculated carefully. Tomorrow would be exactly one month.
“Tomorrow, I can contract my second Beast.”
Currently, Li Yao had obtained seven Beast slots, but he only occupied the first one.
There was no other way; the Contract Power within his body needed time to buffer.
Besides Li Yao and his family, who else could contract a second Beast in such a short time?
“Since that’s the case, I’ll arrange for you to contract a Beast tomorrow.”
“The two Ink Kirin at home are probably getting impatient.”
He hadn't forgotten that he had gotten two Radiant-level Ink Kirin for Li Yao.
“Um, Dad, actually, one of the Ink Kirin has already been contracted by Xiao Mei.”
Li Zun: ???
“You rebellious Son! Your Dad finally managed to catch a Kirin for you, and you actually gave it to Xiao Mei to contract!”
Just as Li Zun was about to make a move, Li Yao immediately ran behind Yang Qian.
“Mom! Quickly, explain it to him!”
Yang Qian looked at the two father and Son bickering and smiled helplessly.
“Alright, husband, just let our Son off the hook.”
Soon, Yang Qian began to explain to Li Zun why the Ink Kirin had been contracted.
“So, it was because of Xiao Mei that you discovered the truth about the Blazing Fire Monkey?”
“Yes, Dad, if it weren’t for that, we really wouldn’t have discovered that the Blazing Fire Monkey was actually a Demon Clan member planted on our Blue Star.”
“Hmph! I’ll let you off this time!”
Li Zun glanced at Li Yao, then snorted, his voice clearly a little proud.
Li Yao didn't pay much attention to it.
“Alright, get ready. After you contract this Ink Kirin tomorrow, come with me into space.”
“Into space?”
“Yes, if you're not there, what if something unexpected happens?”
Li Yao didn't refuse and nodded in agreement.
After all, Beast Breeders must be present during a Beast's evolution to respond to any sudden situations.
Only they can clearly identify the problem quickly if there's an issue with the evolution.
The evolution of the Nine Nether Phoenix into an Undead Nether Phoenix would likely be extremely perilous.
After all, this was an evolution into a Mythic-grade Beast.
At the same time, Li Zun also needed to set up some things to prevent the secret from being exposed due to the overly powerful Qi when the Nine Nether Phoenix evolved into an Undead Nether Phoenix.
Early the next morning.
Li Yao arrived in the Beast Area.
The remaining Ink Kirin was currently enjoying the caresses from the Young Miss maids.
“Ink Kirin, come, it’s time to contract!”
Upon hearing this, the Ink Kirin, who was enjoying the caresses, immediately had its eyes light up.
Was it its turn to be contracted?
Finally, it could follow its master!
Although, when it wasn't contracted, as Li Yao's reserve contracted Beast, it was treated like an ancestor.
But ever since its sister was summoned away, it had been a little worried.
Worried that one day it would also be directly contracted away.
However, with Li Yao personally coming to contract it today, it meant that from now on, it would be a Beast with a master!
And not a strange beast!
The Ink Kirin was very satisfied and deeply moved.
“Proceed with the contract.”
Due to inheriting Yuan Hong’s skill, Li Yao also obtained a weakened version of the Indestructible Vajra Body.
Therefore, to draw blood, he could only use high-quality treasures.
For example, when Li Chengfeng left, he prepared a Radiant-level dagger for Li Yao.
This dagger was extremely sharp, capable of easily piercing almost any armor.
Even the Star Battle Armor was almost penetrated.
This showed how powerful the dagger was.
This was Li Chengfeng’s work, and his first masterpiece in crafting a Radiant-level treasure.
Unfortunately, only its sharpness reached the Brilliant Level; as for skills, it only had one.
Indestructible.
However, this Indestructible skill could only be applied to Radiant-level items.
When encountering Mythic-grade treasures, it would be somewhat ineffective.
He took out this dagger, named Phoenix Blade, which Li Chengfeng had named after the last character of his own name.
There was also a Phoenix head on the hilt of the dagger.
Signifying that it was a Phoenix Blade.
Unfortunately, with only one skill, it was considered at the bottom among Radiant-level treasures.
However, because it was personally crafted, even if it were released, it would be highly sought after by many.
Li Yao, holding the Phoenix Blade, easily cut his finger.
It must be said, Uncle Li Chengfeng was truly a good person; he gave him two Radiant-level treasures just as a greeting gift and a farewell gift.
If this were to be known, he would probably be envied, jealous, and hated by others.
Looking at his easily cut finger, Li Yao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
“It’s great to have an uncle who is full of treasures.”
With that, Li Yao smeared the blood from his finger onto the Ink Kirin’s head.
Because the Ink Kirin was already prepared, after responding, the Ink Kirin successfully established a connection with Li Yao.
At the same time, the Beast Watch also displayed the Ink Kirin’s head.
This meant that the Ink Kirin had successfully become Li Yao’s second Beast!
Beside them, Yuan Hong also walked over.
【Young Lord, is this my second companion?】
“Yes, it is our second companion.”
Li Yao adjusted the watch to the Ink Kirin’s avatar, then slapped it.
Along with the appearance of a summoning array, the Ink Kirin reappeared in front of Li Yao.
Species: Ink Kirin
Quality: Brilliant
Strength: Soldier-Level Five
Skills: Profound Water Power, Dark Protection...
Hidden Evolution Plans: Yin and Yang Kirin...
Five-Colored Kirin...
...
“It’s done, Ink Kirin. From now on, you are our companion.”
Li Yao patted the Ink Kirin’s one-meter-tall body, nodding with satisfaction.
And the Ink Kirin also raised its head, indicating its great happiness.
Finally, the last bit of unease in its heart was gone.
After all, if it weren't contracted, who knew if it would be summoned away by someone named Wang Damei again?
For its own identity, status, and safety, it had been on tenterhooks every day.
“Son, how are you prepared?”
Just then, Li Zun walked over.
Upon seeing the Ink Kirin standing in front of Li Yao, he asked with a puzzled expression.
“The contract is complete, but if I want a third Beast, I’ll have to wait until next month.”
The Contract Power in his body needed a month to buffer.
Otherwise, Li Yao would have filled all seven contract slots, no matter what.
“Oh, you’ve already advanced to Saint-Grade One, not bad.”
“It seems you haven’t been slacking off during my absence.”
