The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles - Chapter 555

Chapter 555: Chapter 286: Spiritual Pet Zhi Lei_1
Lin Yi sat by the tea table, listened quietly. With his judgment, he was confident that this Lightning Mink couple would not abandon their young casually.

The male Lightning Mink continued to project his Divine Intent, it clearly relayed the couple’s story to Zhi Ling inside the Spirit Pet Column.

“Without any Lightning Mink Bloodline, it means it cannot cultivate, and only lives the life of an ordinary mink. In this survival of the fittest world of the Monster Forest, such a child would likely be abandoned by many Monster Beasts.”

“But we never had any intention of abandoning it. Even without any Bloodline, it was still our child…”

Upon hearing this, Zhi Ling shed tears of joy inside the Spirit Pet Column. Its childhood memory was correct; it was not abandoned.

Lin Yi finally felt reassured. However, he didn’t immediately take out Zhi Ling but continued to listen to the Lightning Mink’s recount.

“Back then, we were only in the Golden Core Realm and didn’t dare to leave the child in our Cave Mansion. Eventually, when it was two years old, we put it in a cave for safety while we were in the woods picking Spirit Grass and met some adversaries…”

“By the time we returned, the child had disappeared. There were no traces of it anywhere nearby. We guessed it might have run away. We spent one or two years searching in the Monster Forest, but unfortunately, we found nothing during our search in the Human Cultivator communities either…”

“We believe that the child may have met with unfortunate mishaps. Since the child went missing, we have been blaming ourselves. It’s almost two hundred years now.”

At this point, both the Lightning Mink couple’s faces were filled with sorrow, and the mother mink had tears in her eyes.

“Squeak.” The Lightning Mink cub tenderly wiped the tears from its mother’s face with its small paw.

“After I reached the Bone Refinement Realm, I realized we couldn’t keep living in the past. That’s why we decided to have a second child. I apologize if we seemed lacking in manners.” The male Lightning Mink waved his paw apologetically.

Then, it looked at Lin Yi and asked seriously, “Fellow comrade, you said you were looking for us for some matter. Is it to adopt our child? If you wouldn’t mind, I’d be willing to have our child form a master-servant pact with you. We would be relieved too.”

The Lightning Mink mother also nodded softly, passing their cub to Lin Yi. Although her face was filled with reluctance, she knew it was in the best interest of their child.

Many eyes were locked on their cubs, both in the Cultivation World and Monster Forest, Humans were mainly looking to raise it as a spiritual pet while the Monster Beasts desired to feed on their flesh and blood, hoping to obtain Lightning powers from their bloodline.

Lin Yi gently patted the Lightning Mink cub which wasn’t afraid of humans at all. With its small paw, it tugged at his fingers playfully. This adorable cub was probably Zhi Ling’s younger sibling. Even with its witty character, it had a playful nature.

He shook his head, saying, “Sorry, but I already have a spiritual pet. It’s my companion who has accompanied me through countless cultivations. Its name is Zhi Ling, It’s a Lightning Mink too, and it has a strong bloodline.”

Hearing his words, the Lightning Mink couple’s face turned abruptly, but after a glance at each other, they shook their heads. It’s unlikely that the missing child is Zhi Ling since it didn’t possess any Bloodline of Lightning. And, it had been two hundred years. Even if the child had survived, an ordinary mink’s lifespan would have been long over by now.

“I see, Zhi Ling, that’s a pleasant name. So you were looking for us to learn about the Lightning Mink’s cultivation methods.” The male mink spoke. That was the only plausible purpose they could think of.

“No, I’ve come to the Monster Forest to fulfill a wish of his, to find his parents. Now, it’s time to make it come true.” Lin Yi said slowly, and then took out Zhi Ling from the Spirit Pet Column.

With a flash of light, Zhi Ling appeared in the Cave Mansion, its eyes filled with tears, looking at its parents.

The mother mink seemed to feel something, disbelief evident in her eyes as she stared at Zhi Ling. Her body started to tremble.

The male mink even showed a look of surprise. They felt a connected Bloodline with Zhi Ling. With a single word from them, Zhi Ling couldn’t help but pounce on its mother.

Lin Yi flashed, left the Cave Mansion and let Zhi Ling’s family enjoy their rare reunion.

After about half an hour, the Lightning Mink came out and bowed deeply to Lin Yi. “Benefactor, please come into the Cave Mansion.”

When Lin Yi walked into the Cave Mansion at a leisurely pace, he saw Zhi Ling’s family kneel and bow to him. “We thank you, our benefactor, for saving our child, taking care of it, and for awakening its bloodline.”

Facing the kneels of these Lightning Minks, he did not refuse but calmly accepted it.

Since he had appeared as Invincible East this time, he and Zhi Ling had discussed it and fabricated part of their history.

As for Zhi Ling’s awakening of Bloodline, he claimed it to be an accidental awakening rather than with his help.

“You needn’t be so formal. It was fate that brought me and Zhi Ling together. It was its perseverance that led to its bloodline awakening,” Lin Yi waved his hand and said with a smile. Even though they were Zhi Ling’s parents, he could not reveal his ability to help animals awaken their bloodline trivially.
