Chapter 297: Chapter 297

Aside from Reputation Points, the recent rewards for the five Doorway Affairs are presented before you.

One Flame Fire Stick Magical Artifact.

One Cyan Ox Banner Magical Artifact.

[Two-Star - Resource Optimization].

[Two-Star - Critical Strike].

[Two-Star - Beast Tamer Upgrade].

[Two-Star - Array Master Upgrade].

Among them, the Flame Fire Stick and Cyan Ox Banner are Tier Two High-Grade Spiritual Artifacts.

This level of artifact is of little use to Lu Yuanshan’s three siblings, who are equipped with better Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts.

So, they can only be stored in the sect, available for disciples to exchange.

The [Two-Star - Critical Strike] can be saved for future battles when needed.

As for [Two-Star - Beast Tamer Upgrade].

This one doesn’t need any thought; it definitely needs to be used.

But whom to use it for, Lu Ping initially intended to further enhance Lu Xuelian’s Beast Taming Mastery.

However, upon reflection, a second Beast Tamer has already emerged within the Cyan Mountain Sect.

This person is precisely Liu Shiyao.

Since the relocation of Cloud Stepping Beasts onto the Little Cold Mountain Spirit Vein for cultivation, Lu Xuelian now mostly stays at Little Cold Mountain.

The Three-Eyed Spirit Fish Swarm at Yanyang Lake, currently taken care of solely by Liu Shiyao, worries Lu Ping that she might not handle it well.

Lu Xuelian’s Beast Taming Mastery should be left for her to explore and improve herself.

This time, let’s first enhance Liu Shiyao.

Lu Ping has paid attention to Liu Shiyao for some time, and she left a good impression on him; she is a very well-behaved and loyal little girl to the Cyan Mountain Sect.

After all, due to the presence of his Consciousness Body, Lu Ping can monitor each sect disciple’s situation and living habits daily.

Since it’s her first time getting Liu Shiyao’s Beast Taming Mastery improved, Lu Ping thought it prudent to send a communication in advance to notify her.

"Liu Shiyao, I will enhance your Beast Taming Mastery."

With a simple notification, Lu Ping did not reveal his identity.

He immediately triggered [Two-Star - Beast Tamer Upgrade] and used it on Liu Shiyao.

In just a moment, the effect was completed.

At Yanyang Lake, Liu Shiyao squatted by the shore, watching the Three-eyed Spirit Fish in the lake with great interest, captivated by the newly introduced species.

It was her first time seeing such a species of Spirit Fish, feeling quite fresh.

"Having three eyes is really strange."

"Compared to Cyan-tailed Spirit Fish, I’m not sure about proper cultivation..."

With one hand resting on her chin, Liu Shiyao muttered to herself.

At this moment, her mind suddenly flooded with vast amounts of knowledge.

This knowledge appeared in waves, encompassing Tier One Lower Grade to Tier One Middle Grade Beast Taming knowledge points.

Like a branding, all these knowledge points engraved into Liu Shiyao’s mind, making them impossible to forget.

Feeling the strange occurrence in her mind with numerous knowledge points emerging, Liu Shiyao exclaimed in surprise, feeling somewhat dazed.

The nature of these knowledge points was clear to her.

She distinctly realized that her Beast Taming Mastery had suddenly elevated to the Tier One Middle Grade level.

Amid surprise and doubt, she was bewildered and found it unbelievable.

"What’s happened to me?"

Touching her head, Liu Shiyao kept recalling the vast Beast Taming knowledge suddenly entering her mind, unsure of its origin.

She wondered why it appeared.

Why it appeared in her.

"For no reason, why would I receive something akin to inheritance?"

"Compared to Lu Xuelian, you’re calmer and didn’t get scared."

At this moment, Lu Ping’s voice echoed again in Liu Shiyao’s mind.

Just as she heard Lu Ping’s communication, Liu Shiyao was pondering what it was about, but because of the flood of knowledge in her mind, she stopped questioning who the Communication Bearer was.

Now, hearing Lu Ping’s communication again, Liu Shiyao was startled.

Initially resting her chin in one hand and squatting by the shore, she leapt up and looked around in shock.

Her inquiry revealed nothing but emptiness around her.

At Yanyang Lake, it was very quiet, with only her there.

"No need to panic, I did it out of goodwill, simply enhancing your Beast Taming Mastery, which only yields benefits to you."

Liu Ping communicated calmly.

"Enhanced my Beast Taming Mastery?"

Liu Shiyao opened her mouth, indeed realizing it was true.

She quickly reacted, initially not caring about who Lu Ping was, with an excited face shouted.

"Thank you, Senior!!"

This "Thank you, Senior" startled Lu Ping.

At this moment, Lu Ping was already hovering beside Liu Shiyao.

He purposefully came to Yanyang Lake, near Liu Shiyao, observing her demeanor.

Just like when he first upgraded Lu Xuelian, Lu Ping had done the same.

Without coming and explaining once, the little girl might be pretty confused.

Liu Shiyao would certainly be puzzled about why she received the infusion of Beast Taming knowledge and suddenly climbed to Tier One Middle Grade Beast Tamer level.

Now, with the explanations complete, he initially anticipated that Liu Shiyao, like Lu Xuelian back then, would be puzzled for a while before inquiring about his specific identity.

Unexpectedly, now came a "Thank you, Senior."

At least she knows how to be grateful.

"Mm." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝙣𝙚𝙩

Lu Ping refrained from speaking more, responding with a word before preparing to leave.

"Senior, may I ask who you are?"

Just as Lu Ping turned, communication came again.

Liu Shiyao was curious about Lu Ping’s identity and wanted to know.

If there’s an opportunity in the future, she would certainly go and repay him, offering formal appreciation.

Sweeping her gaze around, unable to spot Lu Ping’s figure, she asked in transmission.

But Liu Shiyao wasn’t foolish.

With a thought, she could suspect that her Beast Taming Mastery enhancement was probably done by a Cyan Mountain Sect ancestor.

More specifically, it might be Lu Ping, Elder Lu.

Rumor has it Elder Lu is in Secluded Cultivation, yet there hasn’t been news of coming out, but that doesn’t mean Elder Lu hasn’t emerged.

Enhancing her Beast Taming Mastery, only a Cultivator possessing such miraculous methods might be at least a Golden Core Ancestor.

Within Cyan Mountain Sect, the Sect Leader and other Foundation Establishment Cultivators seem to lack such ability, and their voices are familiar to Liu Shiyao.

Hearing Lu Ping’s unfamiliar voice for the first time, she gradually associated it with Lu Ping.

Lu Ping had no intention of being open about his identity in response to Liu Shiyao’s inquiry.

For now, it’s not convenient to disclose the "awakening" matter.

"Who I am doesn’t matter. You only need to know that I’m helping you."

"Liu Shiyao, currently Lu Xuelian resides at Little Cold Mountain Spirit Vein, focusing on cultivating Cloud Stepping Beasts. The Cyan-tailed Spirit Fish and Three-eyed Spirit Fish, as well as White Jade Bee at this Yanyang Lake, are temporarily under your care."

"The contributions you make to the sect will be reciprocated in the future."
