Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

Only two Azure Lotus Carp possessed King-level potential, with the vast majority having Overlord-level potential, and even one with Lord-level potential.

It was the only one with Lord-level potential in the entire place.

Li Cunxu guessed that the overall potential of the Azure Lotus Carp was inferior to that of the Sacred Lotus Carp, likely due to the loss of the Azure Lotus Eye.

If not looking at talent or potential, then one could only look at personality.

Compared to the Sacred Lotus Carp that approached him at the pond, Li Cunxu was more inclined towards those that didn't approach.

Because those were more proud and confident, believing they could achieve success and great accomplishments without Li Cunxu.

Li Shihuo watched the Sacred Lotus Carp's attentive behavior towards Li Cunxu, his eyes overflowing with envy.

If only the Sacred Lotus Carp would treat him like that!

"Are there any variant Sacred Lotus Carp or Azure Lotus Carp?"

Li Cunxu suddenly asked, interrupting Li Shihuo's thoughts.

Li Shihuo was startled, his first thought being that Li Shiji's infiltration of the family was so strong that he even knew about the secret variant Sacred Lotus Carp.

That variant Sacred Lotus Carp had long been reserved by the young patriarch and could not be given to Li Cunxu.

Li Cunxu was destined to be a member of a separate branch of the family, while the young patriarch was the cornerstone of the main family. The importance of each was obvious.

Li Shihuo chuckled awkwardly, "Variants, yes, definitely, but they are very rare. For example, the Sacred Lotus Carp of our ancestor Li Ye was a variant. Alas! The number of Sacred Lotus Carp is too small, and the probability of variants appearing is too low."

In fact, it didn't matter if Li Shihuo told Li Cunxu, as Li Cunxu wouldn't want it anyway.

The color of the variant Sacred Lotus Carp was dull gray, compared to the normal Sacred Lotus Carp with its golden scales, the variant Sacred Lotus Carp was simply too ugly.

One was a dazzling gold, the other a dirty white-gray.

The variant Sacred Lotus Carp looked like a low-end version of the Sacred Lotus Carp.

When choosing a pet, appearance is also a reason for selection.

When raising a pet, it must be handsome or beautiful.

During his observation, Li Cunxu noticed a very special Sacred Lotus Carp.

It was hiding under a lotus leaf, moving up and down. Li Cunxu initially thought it was doing *that*, engaging in shameless Teddy dog behavior, but after closer observation, he realized he was mistaken.

It wasn't doing *that*; it was doing sit-ups.

Li Cunxu pointed to the Sacred Lotus Carp busy doing sit-ups and asked, "Has it always been so disciplined?"

Li Shihuo couldn't answer, as he wasn't a manager of the Sacred Lotus Pond.

Sacred Lotus Carp are very intelligent pets. They receive inheritance from their bloodline before they are born. They can be said to be born knowing, so they don't need management.

Moreover, letting people manage them would only raise concerns about insider theft.

After all, the massive profits from the dragon pets and sacred beasts in the two ponds could overwhelm anyone's mind.

The Sacred Lotus Armor Dragon, hidden on the ceiling of the pavilion, moved, but it didn't attract anyone's attention because it remained invisible.

The Sacred Lotus Armor Dragon transformed into a very handsome uncle.

Li Shihuo was shocked to see the visitor and bowed slightly, respectfully saying, "Greetings, Hidden King."

Li Cunxu was somewhat puzzled.

Li Shihuo explained, "This Hidden King is…"

The Hidden King waved his hand to stop him.

"No need for introductions. I'm just an old fellow who loves to hide."

"I'm here to answer your question just now. That Sacred Lotus Carp has always been so disciplined."

Impossible.

Dragons are inherently arrogant and lazy creatures.

When dragons get lazy, they can sleep for a hundred or a thousand years…

The Hidden King said, "Its parents died at the hands of the Blood God's Chosen. It wants revenge, hence its hard work."

The Hidden King embellished the cause of death; they did die at the hands of the Blood God's Chosen, but they were eaten.

The scene of its parents being eaten into the Blood God's Chosen's mouth appeared in its bloodline inheritance, making this Sacred Lotus Carp very resentful and very hardworking.

The Hidden King continued, "This little guy is really good. I recommend you contract it."

"Okay, then I'll contract it."

Li Cunxu really liked this disciplined and hardworking Sacred Lotus Carp. One must know that disciplined and hardworking creatures are very rare among dragon pets.

As for hatred?

Hatred is not good; it easily makes people biased, but it is also a motivation to become stronger.

As for the enemy, the Blood God's Chosen?

That's not a problem. As long as he grows up, as long as he is in the human race's camp for one day, he will eventually face the evil god's Chosen.

Moreover, he still has the old president's two life-saving jades.

By offering the life-saving jade, the Blood God's Chosen is definitely unable to kill him.

The newest and fastest novels are at 69shu ba!

As for whether a life-saving jade can kill the Blood God's Chosen?

It can.

Relying solely on the power inside the life-saving jade can definitely not destroy a Blood God's Chosen.

But it can't stand the power in the life-saving jade being used for the 'Old President Summoning Technique', summoning the old president's true form to the battlefield.

In the game's plot, Li Cunxu had seen this scene and understood why the evil god's Chosen only dared to do things secretly and fled at the slightest sign of trouble.

They were scared by the life-saving jade's summoning of the old president's showy operation.

Seeing that Li Cunxu was very sensible, the Hidden King gave him a gift.

Li Shihuo initially didn't care, thinking it was just an ordinary Radiant Sacred Lotus from the Sacred Lotus Pond, but upon closer inspection, it was extraordinary.

"This… this is a Radiant Mother Lotus."

Radiant Mother Lotus, a Lord-level resource, can breed a large number of Radiant Sacred Lotuses.

With a Radiant Mother Lotus, there's no need to worry about Radiant Sacred Lotuses.

Radiant Sacred Lotuses bloom twice a year, each time producing twelve seeds, with each seed having a one in fifty chance of producing a Radiant Sacred Lotus.

Radiant Mother Lotuses bloom three times a year, each time producing twenty-four seeds, with each seed having a 100% chance of producing a Radiant Sacred Lotus.

In order to cultivate the bonds between disciples and the family, to make the connections between them closer, and to prevent disciples who contract with Sacred Lotus Carp from defecting from the family, Radiant Mother Lotuses are not allowed to be bought or sold. Only the best food for Sacred Lotus Carp, Radiant Sacred Lotuses, can be bought, unless you break through to King-level, then you will be given a Radiant Mother Lotus.

Li Shihuo wanted to stop him, but he didn't know how to say it.

The Hidden King has a noble status, being the pet of the previous, previous, previous patriarch, with a fiery temper. When he gets angry, even the current patriarch and the previous patriarch can only obediently take the scolding.

Li Shihuo vaguely guessed the answer to why the Hidden King did this.

That disciplined Sacred Lotus Carp is likely a descendant of the Hidden King.

The Hidden King said, "What is your mutated Sacred Lotus Eye called?"

"Blood Lotus Eye."

"When your Blood Lotus Eye transforms the Sacred Lotus Carp into a Blood Lotus Carp, use the Blood Lotus Carp's blood to smear the entire body of the Radiant Mother Lotus. In a few days, the Radiant Mother Lotus will mutate, turning into Blood Lotus, the most suitable food for Blood Lotus Carp."

After the Hidden King finished explaining, he disappeared without a trace.

Li Cunxu stepped into the Sacred Lotus Pond, and Sacred Lotus Carp crowded in front of Li Cunxu, with large, sparkling eyes staring at Li Cunxu, as if saying, don't listen to what that old thing Hidden King said, choose me, choose me, I'm more excellent than that disciplined Sacred Lotus Carp.

Li Cunxu said softly, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I already have a choice."

Sigh!

The Sacred Lotus Carp scattered in a hubbub.

Some slapped the water surface with their tails, splashing water to express their dissatisfaction, while others spat at Li Cunxu.

Li Cunxu put up a water ball, laughing and crying as he blocked them.
