“Fei, wait for me here.”

The old man quickly walked into the wine cellar.

“Alright,” he said. Shen Fei lay his head on the bar counter, waiting patiently.

“Found it, it’s here!”

As soon as the bartender finished speaking, a small box with a lock was placed in front of Shen Fei.

The small box was squarish and had a plain appearance. There was even a thick layer of dust on top of it.

“What is this?” Shen Fei looked at the small box in front of him with a puzzled expression.

“Good stuff! Very good stuff!”

The old man casually pushed a few bottles of wine on the table aside and blew away the dust on the box.

“It took me a lot of effort to find this… Now, I’ll give it to you!”

Shen Fei laughed and pushed the box back. “Sir, you always take such good care of me. You should keep this for yourself.”

The old man in front of him was an old acquaintance of his grandfather.

Although he did not have much money, when his family was in dire straits when Shen Fei was younger, he would occasionally send some food for the boy to eat.

Being so concerned about his family’s affairs was also his way of showing kindness.

“There’s no need to be so polite. I told you to accept it, so accept it!” The old man raised his brows and shoved the box into Shen Fei’s arms.

Shen Fei nodded slightly. “Then, I’ll do as you say.”

Since it would be rude to turn it down, he had no other reason not to accept it. He did not know what was in the box, so he thought he might as well open it and take a look.

Shen Fei turned the small key in the lock and was about to open it…

“Don’t open it!” The old man bellowed and reached out to hold the box down.

At that moment, the people around him cast curious looks at the old man.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. Everyone, please continue your drinking, continue your drinking.”

What exactly was in the box that would make the usually careless old man so cautious?

The old man vigilantly checked their surroundings. He then moved closer to Shen Fei’s ear and said in a low voice, “This box was given to me by your grandfather. I was never willing to use it. Now, if you want to see what’s inside, bring it home first!”

No wonder he was acting so strange just now. This box most likely contained a rare treasure. It would be terrible if outsiders found out.

“Then I’ll go home first.” Shen Fei quickly tucked the box into his pocket, picked up the wine and left the pub in a hurry.

Looking at Shen Fei’s back, the old man looked at the photograph he kept nearby of him and Shen Fei’s grandfather when he was younger. He slowly sighed and started wiping the glass in his hand.

“Old friend, I’ve done everything I can this time. I won’t be able to help your family much from now on. I hope that you can protect them from where you are.”

…

“Dad, I’m back.”

Back in the Shen family’s mansion, Shen Fei pushed the door open. He was gone quite a while, but his father was still lying in the same position, not moving at all.

“Zzzz…”

Shen Fei walked over to him with a bottle of wine. Just as he got a little closer, that familiar smell of alcohol made his throat tighten. The smell made him want to vomit every time it hit his senses.

‘I’m always the one cleaning up the mess. When is he going to clean up the mess himself? He doesn’t go out to work and only knows how to drink at home every day!’

Shen Fei could not bring himself to care anymore. He threw the bottle of wine on the ground in disgust and returned to his room.

‘Let him clean it up himself later!’

Compared to cleaning, training the Flame Owl was more important.

…

“Flame Owl!”

“Hoot, hoot!”

The fiery red Flame Owl immediately came out of the pocket realm and stood firmly on the table.

“Huh?”

The Flame Owl in front of him had completely changed its appearance compared to when it had just signed the contract.

The feathers all over its body changed from a mysterious blue to a fiery red.

Moreover, its overall mental state seemed to be much better.

‘Could it be that the Flame Owl would turn blue when it was in a bad state? This is quite convenient for checking its status.’

“Hoot, hoot!”

The Flame Owl took the initiative to move forward and obediently rubbed against Shen Fei’s hand.

The moment the flame eating owl touched Shen Fei, a robotic voice immediately popped up in Shen Fei’s mind.

[Talent detected. A Page-rank spirit beast, Flame Owl, is ready to evolve into a Baron-rank spirit beast?]

‘As expected!’

As long as he encountered a spirit beast that could evolve, his talent would automatically prompt him in his mind.

It was quite convenient.

“Evolve!”

As soon as his voice fell, the Flame Owl in front of him emitted a faint white smoke.

“Hoot, hoot!”

The Flame Owl spread its wings, and in an instant, the entire spirit beast was covered in white light. The temperature in the room was getting higher and higher.

‘It’s getting a little hot…’

Shen Fei wiped the sweat from his forehead and reached his hand to open the door for some air.

The moment he touched the doorknob, he felt a sharp pain in his fingertips.

‘It’s too hot!’

If he had known that it would be so hot during its evolution, he would have gone to the courtyard to let it evolve.

Shen Fei wrapped his scalded hand and quietly waited for the evolution to complete.

Very quickly, the light of faded. The Flame Owl that was floating in the air also slowly landed on the charred table.

[Flame Owl]

[Rank: Baron, Low grade]

[HP: 99]

[Attack: 186]

[Defense: 99]

[Spirit: 125]

[Speed: 180]

[Special skill: Ring of Fire (Summons a ring of fire with extremely high temperature, firmly protecting the Beastmaster and itself. After receiving a certain amount of damage, the Ring of Fire will automatically explode, causing a high amount of damage to the surrounding enemies.)]

[Special skill: Blazing Charge (The owl’s body will be engulfed in flames that are as hot as magma, and will charge at the enemy, ignoring everything else.)]

“Hoot, hoot!”

Compared to before, the Flame Owl’s body had become more slender, and the feathers on its wings and tail were slowly burning like flames.

It raised its head arrogantly, and the aura of supremacy from the Phoenix Bloodline had begun to show its edge.

“Come here.”

Shen Fei beckoned to the Flame Owl.

“Hoot, hoot!”

The Flame Owl happily jumped onto Shen Fei’s shoulder and docilely rubbed against his neck.

After the evolution, not only would the strength of the spirit beast increase, but the loyalty of the spirit beast to its master would also increase.

Shen Fei touched the Flame Owl’s slender neck.

[A Baron-rank spirit beast that can continue to evolve has been detected. Do you wish to proceed?]

‘It can continue to evolve?!’ Shen Fei suddenly felt a little excited. ‘In other words, I can evolve the Flame Owl from Page to Emperor in a day? The SSS-class talent is so good!’

“Evolve!”

[Evolution failed! The same spirit beast can only evolve once a day! The higher the rank, the longer the cooldown time! Please wait patiently, transmigrator.]

‘F*ck!’

To think that he had such high expectations, only to be slapped with a cooldown time!

Shen Fei rubbed his temples in distress.

‘Why didn’t you tell me about this sooner?’

“Hoot?”

The Flame Owl lowered its head and curiously looked at the box in Shen Fei’s pocket. It stretched out its head and picked up the box.

“Ah, don’t touch that.” Shen Fei hurriedly took the box away.

He wondered what kind of treasure was hidden inside the box that his grandfather had left his friend. It was better to open it now.

Shen Fei reached out his hand and opened the mechanical lock on the box. With a “click”, the box opened a crack.

A refreshing medicinal fragrance emitted from the box. Inside the box, there were two black pills wrapped in a layer of yellow wax paper.

“What is this?”
