Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Chapter 904: Chapter 428: I Am a Disciple of the Grandmaster Creator!_2

Manli’s ex-boyfriend, Fang Mu, was a stranger to her, so she was reluctant to pass judgment on him.

However, according to He Qing, Manli’s ex-boyfriend was an utterly despicable bastard.

Not only did he date other women behind Manli’s back, but he also physically abused her.

So whenever Manli’s ex-boyfriend threatened her with various excuses to get back together, He Qing would unleash her righteous iron fist.

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao felt it was inappropriate to continue asking He Qing to come along, and instead turned to look at Fang Mu.

Fang Mu gently shook his head at Hu Tao.

Frankly speaking, it wasn’t suitable to bring He Qing along with him and Hu Tao today.

Fang Mu had previously considered how to explain to Hu Tao’s parents so that Hu Tao could stay at his mountain manor with peace of mind.

He had worked to improve his academic knowledge under the guidance of He Deen and tried to strengthen his spiritual power as much as possible.

In the end, Fang Mu felt it was best to be honest; to speak the truth.

Fang Mu believed that after understanding the real situation, Hu Tao’s parents would make the right decision.

“Sister Qing, in that case, you don’t need to pick me up tonight,” he said.

“If you encounter any trouble over there, just let me know.”

With that, Fang Mu took out several parcels he had prepared in advance from his Purple Ice Crystal Ring and held them in his hand.

Then he turned to Hu Tao and said.

“Let’s go upstairs!”

“Be careful with the steps, and don’t trip over the hem of the coat!”

Fang Mu was much taller than Hu Tao.

While the oversized coat looked good on Hu Tao, it was easy to step on the hem when going up the stairs if one was not careful.

Fang Mu had several such experiences when he was young.

Hearing this, Hu Tao quickly picked up the hem of her coat.

Her own staircase was long and shaky; a fall could easily result in a bruised face at the least!

She had heard that a lady in the neighboring unit had tripped while going upstairs and knocked out a front tooth.

She still whistles when she speaks to this day!

Hu Tao was unaware that Fang Mu had prepared gifts for her parents in advance.

Hu Tao hurriedly moved forward to help Fang Mu with the items.

Fang Mu quickly shook his head at Hu Tao.

These gifts for Hu Tao’s parents definitely needed to be carried by himself.

As Hu Tao unlocked the door, the aroma of food wafted out, whetting Fang Mu’s appetite.

Upon hearing the door open, Hu Tao’s mother, Lin Wei, hurriedly put down the plate in her hand and came out of the kitchen.

“Little Wood, Little Peach is back!”

“Little Peach, go fetch slippers for Little Wood, and remember not to fetch the pair meant for guests.”

“Your Uncle Liu just tried on that pair this morning, we don’t want him to pass his athlete’s foot to Little Wood!”

Seeing the many parcels in Fang Mu’s hand, Lin Wei chided.

“Why bring so many things when you come to visit Aunty’s house?”

“Old Hu, stop looking at your chess manuals! Little Wood doesn’t have time to play chess with you!”

“Dinner is ready, come and eat!”

Hu Xu, holding chess manuals, came out of the room and pretended to complain to Lin Wei.

“Knowing Little Wood was coming, I have been poring over these manuals since last night, just learned a couple of moves.”

“Little Wood doesn’t even have time to play a game of chess with me after dinner!?”

Although Hu Xu’s words were addressed to Lin Wei, his eyes were fixed on Fang Mu.

A gentle smile appeared on his face.

He stepped forward, took the parcels from Fang Mu, and after Fang Mu changed shoes, he took Fang Mu’s coat and hung it on the rack at the doorway.

Fang Mu liked the atmosphere of Hu Tao’s family.

The atmosphere in Fang Mu’s previous life at home was similar to that of Hu Tao’s.

“Aunt Lin, I’m not in a hurry at all. Even if I were, I’d still have time to play a few games of chess with Uncle Hu!” Fang Mu assured.

Hu Xu inviting him to play chess was probably an excuse to talk about matters related to Hu Tao.

Certainly, these matters were not suitable for discussing over the dinner table.

At Fang Mu’s words, Hu Xu laughed heartily and then set the chess manuals aside.

He pulled out a few chairs at the table.

“Little Wood, your Aunt Lin has been busy preparing this meal since noon, see if these dishes suit your palate!”

“Usually, our home wouldn’t be this lavish unless it’s the New Year.”

Fang Mu looked at the more than a dozen dishes on the table and couldn’t help but scratch his head.

“Uncle and Auntie, I’ll have chances to come again in the future, it’s not like this is my only visit!”

“You don’t need to be so polite!”

“Otherwise, I might not dare to come again!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei waved her hand dismissively.

“Little Wood, I’ve been cooking for over twenty years.”

“I do it every day, how could I possibly get tired from cooking a meal?”

“The key is, I asked Xiao Tao, and Xiao Tao couldn’t tell me exactly what your favorite dishes are.”

“So I just made a table full of my best dishes.”

“When the time comes, if you see any dish you like, just tell me.”

“The next time you come, I’ll continue to make it for you!”

Fang Mu had long known that Hu Tao’s parents were sincere people; when they said these things, they were truly thinking this way in their hearts.

They weren’t just being insincerely polite with him.

However, Fang Mu felt a bit of regret in his heart.

He couldn’t eat his fill at the meal to come, otherwise, even if he ate the entire table by himself, he probably wouldn’t be even 10% full!

Lin Wei kept adding food to Fang Mu’s plate, and Hu Tao was quite worried that Lin Wei might overfeed Fang Mu.

She had no idea that Fang Mu was experiencing a bittersweet joy as he finished the meal.

After the meal, they watched TV for a while, where a club regional challenge match was being broadcasted.

Several players were commanding their Guardian Beasts in fierce combat.

Lin Wei’s Guardian Beasts were not adept at fighting, but Lin Wei herself had the heart of a warrior.

If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Wei’s two Healing Series Guardian Beasts were truly unable to duel with others, Lin Wei would definitely be a regular on the Battle Network.

“Is this person’s Guardian Beast really at the Golden Stage?”

“If that strike hits, I’m afraid even a Guardian Beast at the Platinum Tier might not withstand it!”

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao thought of the afternoon’s duel and couldn’t help saying,

“Mom, Fang Mu helped me strengthen the Magpie, and now it can block that strike from just now!”

With that said, Hu Tao summoned her City Protecting Magpie.

Due to the increase in size, even with its wings folded, the City Protecting Magpie made the living room feel somewhat cramped.

Seeing the greatly transformed City Protecting Magpie, both Lin Wei and Hu Xu’s eyes revealed a look of shock. @@novelbin@@

Hu Tao’s Iron-winged Sparrow was chosen for her by them, and they were naturally well aware of its capabilities.

Lin Wei and Hu Xu subconsciously thought that the Iron-winged Sparrow, which had evolved into a City Protecting Magpie, had just awakened the Luan Bird Bloodline.

But upon closer examination, they found out that didn’t seem to be the case!

If it had only awakened the Luan Bird Bloodline, the changes in the Iron-winged Sparrow definitely shouldn’t be this significant.

The Iron-winged Sparrow was a product displayed at the goods exhibition, and there were two of them.

One was bought by Hu Xu, and the other was purchased by Hu Xu’s upstream supplier.

Hu Xu’s upstream supplier, who ran a large enterprise, reportedly found a Senior Creator and spent a vast amount of resources to awaken the Iron-winged Sparrow’s Luan Bird Bloodline.

Upon learning of this, Hu Xu felt quite a pang of sourness in his heart.

He could provide a Guardian Beast like the Iron-winged Sparrow for Hu Tao, but he couldn’t awaken its Bloodline.

Hu Xu had seen the Iron-winged Sparrow that had awakened the Luan Bird Bloodline.

That Iron-winged Sparrow, when Hu Xu first saw it, appeared incredibly majestic and imposing.

But compared to Hu Tao’s now, it seemed just like an old hen next to a crane!

By summoning the City Protecting Magpie, Hu Tao was essentially showing Lin Wei and Hu Xu the investment Fang Mu had made into her resources.

This City Protecting Magpie completely dispelled any concerns Lin Wei and Hu Xu might have had.

But as Hu Tao’s father, whether it was out of responsibility toward Hu Tao or toward Fang Mu, there were some things Hu Xu felt were necessary to ask Fang Mu.

Hu Xu stood up, gesturing grandly.

“Little Wood, come have a couple rounds with Uncle Hu!”

“Let me see if your chess skills have improved!”

Upon hearing this, Fang Mu stood up and followed Hu Xu into the room.

Hu Xu didn’t close the door, but Fang Mu shut it behind them.

There were some things Fang Mu felt he needed to make clear to Hu Xu, even if not asked.

After setting up the chessboard, Hu Xu was thinking about how to start the conversation.

Just then, he heard Fang Mu say very seriously,

“Uncle Hu, you must have learned about my situation from other sources.”

“Not to hide it from you, I am now a disciple of a Grandmaster Creator!”
