19: Extraordinary level, Fiery Ice Lion

Xie Ning's evolution naturally wouldn't fail just like that.

In the Lu Family's backyard at this moment, everyone was staring intently at the Ice Lion inside the Formation's halo, which was roaring in pain.

"Ice Snow..."

Lu Bingyun gritted her teeth, her hands clenched white, her face filled with worry. She wanted to ask Xie Ning something, but seeing his focused expression, she didn't dare to disturb him, fearing she would affect the Ice Lion's evolution.

Mo Yu, who was standing nearby, recovered from her shock and asked, "Great God, is this the Aberrant Evolution?"

"That's right." Xie Ning nodded.

Mo Yu asked again, "But, but won't this be too risky? Even healthy Demon Tamers Beasts might not survive an Aberrant Evolution, let alone this dying Ice Lion?"

She knew Xie Ning's Breeder techniques were superior to her own, but she couldn't understand why he would do this.

"What do you think Aberrant Evolution is?" Xie Ning shook his head, and without waiting for Mo Yu's answer, he continued, "Aberrant Evolution is elusive yet truly exists, and some of the conditions for Aberration are bizarre.

Aberration is destined to be unique and cannot be viewed with common sense. Speaking of which, if this Ice Lion hadn't been poisoned by Poison Flame, it really wouldn't have had the chance to enjoy this kind of Aberration."

"So that's how it is..." Mo Yu seemed thoughtful, yet also enlightened.

Xie Ning's words were not only answering Mo Yu but also meant for the three members of the Lu Family, lest they worry too much.

Sure enough, upon hearing Xie Ning's words, they felt slightly relieved. Lu Bingyun also relaxed and looked at Xie Ning with curiosity.

It was hard to imagine that this cheerful boy in front of her had actually confessed his feelings to her just a few days ago, although his behavior at the time was very strange... it seemed he also had a Demon Tamer Beast battle agreement with Li Zhi. What should be done about that?

Naturally, Xie Ning didn't know what Lu Bingyun was thinking. At this moment, he was still surprised by what he had just said.

He could confirm that his previous understanding of Breeders was limited to textbooks. Even after getting the System, he only knew that evolution happened, but not why or how.

Recalling carefully, he realized that this information seemed to have been acquired after evolving the Supersonic Mantis.

Does he gain Demon Tamer Beast Knowledge every time he performs an evolution?

Thinking this, he became even more expectant of the Ice Lion's evolution.

At this moment, the Ice Lion's evolution reached a critical point. The Formation shone brightly, and faintly, Ice Elements gathered from all directions, causing the temperature in the backyard to drop sharply.

Just as the backyard became covered in a thick layer of frost, Lu Yimin suddenly frowned and shouted, "Step back quickly!"

Before everyone could react to what was happening, a Gigantic Eagle appeared, and then a strong wind swept everyone rapidly backward, stopping only at the doorway connecting the backyard to the corridor.

Boom!

Like the roar of rising flames, the frost that had just covered the entire backyard suddenly ignited, burning away all the green grass, leaving only the Formation and the Ice Lion within it.

Xie Ning, bringing Mo Yu with him, bowed to Lu Yimin and said, "Thank you, Uncle Lu, for taking action. This time, I was careless."

"It's nothing," Lu Yimin nodded, then looked toward the Ice Lion with curiosity in his eyes. "I didn't expect this evolution to have such an Unusual Phenomenon."

Time passed minute by minute.

Finally, half an hour later.

[Ding! Evolution successful! Ice Lion (Excellent) Aberrant Evolved into Flowing Fire Ice Lion (Transcendent Level)! Gained evolution value * 25]

[Ding! First time evolving a Transcendent Level Yao Beast. Reward: evolution value * 1000, Elementary Mental Enhancement Potion * 1, Random Beast Taming Skill scroll * 1.]

Excellent. The evolution value consumed to unlock the Ice Lion's Aberration direction was not only half recovered but also increased by 1000, not to mention the two other rewards.

At this moment, the evolutionary halo gradually dissipated, and a brand-new lion stepped out of the light. First, a paw burning with Ice-Blue Flames emerged, followed by the other paw, and then a massive lion head that was snow-white but adorned with blue markings. On its enormous skull, two large eyes shone brightly, displaying great majesty, and its forehead was topped with a glittering Ice Crystal.

When its entire body walked out, people noticed that besides its four limbs, the tip of its tail was also burning with Ice-Blue Flames. The burning of these flames carried no heat whatsoever; instead, it made the surroundings even colder.

This lion was two meters tall and over four meters long, clearly a Massive Creature.

Seeing the appearance of this lion, Mo Yu gasped. It was the first time she had seen a Demon Tamers Beast whose completed evolution was so stunning. When she looked at Xie Ning again, her eyes were filled with admiration.

So a powerful Breeder really could help a Demon Tamers Beast achieve a Heaven-Defying Change of Fate!

Lu Yimin and his wife were also overjoyed to see the brand-new Demon Tamers Beast. Lu Yimin managed to nod calmly, but Huang Qiuwan was beaming with happiness, truly delighted for her daughter. She could naturally tell that Ice Snow's current state was much stronger than before.

"Ice Snow..." Lu Bingyun rushed over to the lion in a few quick steps. The lion also lowered its head and gently rubbed against Lu Bingyun, emitting a soft growl.

During the time it suffered, it felt the heartache of its master. Therefore, even though its Rank after evolution was far higher than Lu Bingyun's, it remained as obedient as ever.

Lu Bingyun felt its response, and tears streamed down her face. She continuously murmured, "This is wonderful, truly wonderful!"

After reading the attributes of the Flowing Fire Ice Lion, Xie Ning nodded in satisfaction. He then walked forward, passed the crowd surrounding the Flowing Fire Ice Lion, went to the location of the former Formation, took out a bottle, and collected the crimson liquid in the depression on the ground.

This liquid was precisely the Poison Flame that had been forced out of its body.

"Great God, you're amazing! Transcendent Level! This Demon Tamers Beast can grow at least to Silver Rank in the future! You not only healed its injuries but also raised its grade!" Mo Yu looked at Xie Ning with shining eyes, excitedly waving her hands up and down without realizing it.

Xie Ning smiled and said, "It's nothing. Since I promised Chairman Lin, I naturally have to do a good job."

"Haha~ You're too modest," Mo Yu said, energized as if she'd been injected with chicken blood. "If Grandpa Lin knew about your treatment results, he'd probably be so shocked he'd fall right off his chair."

"Xie Ning."

Lu Bingyun had wiped away her tears by now. She came up to Xie Ning and bowed to him. "Thank you for putting aside past grievances, helping me heal Ice Snow, and allowing it to successfully Breakthrough to the Transcendent Level. If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

"You're welcome. After all, you helped me too."

Xie Ning awkwardly rubbed his nose. He was quite grateful to Lu Bingyun; if she hadn't called the Director back then and stopped his duel with Li Zhi, Little Mantis would probably have died.

Lu Yimin and his wife also walked over.

"Young Friend Xie, thank you for your hard work this time. This Bank Card contains the payment for your treatment; please accept it." Lu Yimin took out a Bank Card and handed it to Xie Ning. "Also, don't rush off at noon, you and Mo Yu girl. Let your Aunt make some of her Specialty Dishes for you."

Huang Qiuwan clapped her hands happily, held Mo Yu's hand, and said to the two of them, "That's right, Little Xie, Little Mo, you absolutely must eat before you leave. My girl has never invited classmates home to eat before, and since you're graduating soon, consider this meal a gathering among classmates."

Xie Ning and Mo Yu exchanged a look and said, "Then we will impose on you."

"It's no imposition at all, no imposition." Lu Bingyun gently waved her hand.
