Chapter 101: Lin Jin Needs The Dragon Blood Pill
Yang Jie beca the center of attention upon arrival at the hall.
Zu Can leaned over to Lin Jin and mumbled, “What’s so good about him? He’s just born with better looks.”
Lin Jin agreed with this so he nodded vigorously.
This was evidently a man’s envy, jealousy, and hatred.
“Appraiser Lin, you’ve honored our Zu family with such significant assistance today so you absolutely must co and be a guest at our place. The Zu family is ready to welco you with all carpets rolled out,” Zu Tianhong said sincerely.
The man was the Zu family’s patriarch and his age was considered a generation above Lin Jin’s. Yet, Zu Tianhong’s behavior was surprisingly humble.
Because Lin Jin was genuinely skilled.
Not only was he competent, but Zu Tianhong could also tell that Lin Jin had a limitless future awaiting him.
As the lord of a prominent household, he couldn’t possibly miss out on such a talented man. If they could get along with Lin Jin, it would bring only advantages to his Zu family.
It wasn’t appropriate to reject such an offer this ti around. Moreover, it was a personal invitation from Lord Zu Tianhong so Lin Jin nodded in agreent.
Although he managed to pick only one pet beast for the Zu family in this auction, this one creature was enough to overpower all of the Zu family’s current pet beasts.
Just the thought of this boa being a Rank 2 from the get-go and advancing into Rank 3 within a year made Zu Tianhong feel ten years younger.
After leaving the auction hall, Zu Can suddenly recall sothing. He went over to his father and asked, “Father, should we call Yingying back?”
Zu Tianhong was first stunned before nodding. “Of course we have to. That Yang Jie is currently at the height of his success and I heard he’s already engaged to a woman. Even if he wasn’t, with his haughtiness, he’d never set his sights on our Zu family. Yingying is just fooling around blindly. But Appraiser Lin has only just begun his road to success. His future is limitless.”
“I think we share the sa idea, father!” Zu Can grinned. When he saw Lin Jin co outside, he imdiately sealed his lips.
anwhile, Lin Jin wanted to bring Lu Xiaoyun along. However, despite Lu Xiaoyun’s straightforward personality, she was a clever and sensible girl. Since the Zu family was trying to show Lin Jin gratitude, it was inappropriate for her to tag along.
“Master Lin, I still have to wait for my brother,” she rejected indirectly.
Realizing what she was doing, Lin Jin didn’t press for her to follow him. He bid her farewell before leaving with the Zu father and son.
The Zu family showed considerable hospitality during dinner and even ordered their subordinates to bring over many gifts. Lin Jin wasn’t able to refuse them, or else he’d risk being seen as discourteous.
By the ti Lin Jin got ho, he realized that his mountain of gifts included a stack of money.
Counting the money, he was surprised to find a thousand taels.
Since Lin Jin helped the Zu family pick out such a promising pet beast, they couldn’t let him work for free. Fearing that Lin Jin might reject them if they offered it outright, they ca up with the idea of hiding the money among the gifts.
Lin Jin smiled to himself. The other party was going through such lengths and if he returned the money now, that would make him the unreasonable one.
Furthermore, he was in need of so cash right now.
So even if he kept it, he could do it with peace of mind.
It was currently late at night. Having napped in the afternoon, even with the influence of alcohol, Lin Jin found himself unable to fall asleep.
Xiao Huo was lying in the yard moon-bathing while Goldy perched on the rooftop, lifting his head up pompously, staring at god-knows-what. The shadow wolf, on the other hand, was still sound-asleep in the beast pen.
After so thought, Lin Jin took out his needles and used the pulse-seeking technique to perform acupuncture on himself, forcing out the alcohol toxins.
The deeper he studied, the more he realized how amazing this ‘pulse-seeking technique’ was. Even the ‘coiled wire needle’ he learned today was suitable for both offense and defense, enabling him to kill without leaving a trace.
To put it simply, even without Xiao Huo by his side, Lin Jin would be able to stand up against enemies or beasts with this needling technique.
The silver needles pierced into his flesh. Regulating his spirit energy, Lin Jin opened his mouth and huffed out a breath of alcoholic air that turned into a cloud of pure ethanol.
Lin Jin felt much better after that as toxins in the human system did give way to discomfort.
Turning over to glance at Xiao Huo, since he had ti to spare, Lin Jin used the coiled wire needle to perform pricking-blood therapy on Xiao Huo, helping the little guy regulate his veins.
Xiao Huo was an average pet beast without any hidden bloodline, nor was he a rare beast. However, he was far superior to most pets beasts right now.
He was a Rank 3 beast.
Generally speaking, achieving Rank 2 for a fla wolf beast like Xiao Huo was imnsely tough and Rank 3 would be his limit. Advancing further was basically impossible.
However, Lin Jin possessed the Museum of Deadly Beasts and it stated that Xiao Huo still had advancent potential. Even if he didn’t, Lin Jin would try everything to increase his potential so that Xiao Huo could evolve.
And enlarging his spirit veins by performing acupuncture daily was one of the thods.
This ti, after piercing Xiao Huo’s acupoints, the little guy showed so visible changes.
Not only has his aura improved, but an additional advancent thod also appeared inside the museum’s description.
Lin Jin’s eyes imdiately lit up upon discovering the new information.
It was another perfect evolution thod.
Lin Jin knew better than anyone the wonders of a perfect evolution. It was thanks to this evolution variant that allowed Xiao Huo to skip from Rank 1 to Rank 3, transforming him completely.
Of course, a perfect evolution wasn’t easy. Back then, they required a fire spirit crystal and six sun beast soul pills, all of which were near-impossible to obtain. Lin Jin was only able to get them because of the museum as well as a dash of good luck.
And after experiencing the many advantages brought on by a perfect evolution, it spoiled Lin Jin. He planned to have every upcoming evolution of Xiao Huo’s be a perfect one.
If a perfect evolution thod didn’t appear, he would wait for it.
And obviously, his patience didn’t go to waste.
After continuously regulating and strengthening Xiao Huo’s spirit veins with the pulse-seeking technique, a perfect evolution thod finally appeared in the latest evaluation.
Lin Jin studied it at once.
The perfect evolution this ti around required incredibly unique items, as expected.
First, he had to completely master the ‘coiled wire needle’ technique and Lin Jin was rely at the beginning stage. There was still a long journey ahead until he could be said to have ‘mastered’ the technique.
Next, various rare dicinal ingredients and a fire spirit crystal were needed.
Lin Jin was already ntally prepared, but the last item, a ‘dragon blood pill’ flustered him.
After careful research, Lin Jin found out that a dragon blood pill was made from the essence of a dragon’s blood, pelletized by specialized alchemists. It had the magical effect of transforming a pet beast and enhancing its bloodline.
Lin Jin knew that the key factor here was the ‘enhancing bloodline’ part.
Bloodlines were vital in pet beasts and among the various bloodlines out there, a dragon’s blood was undoubtedly at the top of its class. The dragon blood pill requirent in this particular perfect evolution was rather broad. In other words, no matter the grade, any dragon blood pill would do.
Problem was, from where and how was Lin Jin supposed to get one?
The next morning, after freshening up, Lin Jin brought Xiao Huo and Goldy to the Beast Appraisal Association.
At the sight of Lin Jin, the guards at the gate imdiately greeted him with a smile, treating him with great respect as if yesterday’s incident never happened at all.
All the apprentices who passed by would proactively approach and greet him. So, who were a distance away would deliberately jog over to greet him respectfully.
It was also worth noting that quite a few female apprentices approached him with admiration in their eyes.
It seed that news of what happened yesterday had already spread around the association.
