It was almost noon, the sun already pretty high in the sky. Granny Shen was organizing her medicines and herbs inside the store, she was weak to heat so she rarely got out at noon.She was going through the medicine"s stocks with smile, evident that she was in good mood. How couldn"t she? Thanks to the effect of the green water, the herb she was growing was improved in all aspects. This leads to her income increasing by quite a lot, now she could afford a better medicine for her grandchild.
This was all thanks to Yan Xiu, nothing could describe how grateful she felt toward Yan Xiu. Her daughter and her husband wanted to thank him personally, so they were waiting for a good time to closed shop and went back to the village.
Granny Shen thought of inviting Yan Xiu to lunch and gave him some medicine or herbs to pay him back. She knew it was not enough to repay Yan Xiu but for now, this was the thing she could do for him. Granny Shen was about to went to the kitchen but the front door was knocked.
"Who is it?" (GS)
"Granny, it"s me." (YX)
"Oh, little Xiu. Come in, come in." (GS)
Granny Shen back was facing the door so she didn"t see Yan Xiu entered but she did hear the door opened. Yan Xiu was still small so his footstep was light, but there was another footstep following Yan Xiu, this one was heavy. Granny Shen frowned "Who is it?" she wondered.
She turned around and petrified, there was a big demon beast inside her house. Yan Xiu already expected this, he calmly explained it to granny Shen.
"S-so... This is... Your contracted demon beast?" (GS)
"Yes." (YX)
"My G.o.d..." (GS)
Granny Shen looked at Bai Yuan who was looking around curiously and sniffing her medicines and herbs. "To think this child could tame a demon beast... He"s truly not just a normal kid." thought granny Shen.
"Then granny, where"s the jade bottle? I"m gonna refill it." (YX)
"Oh, wait a minute, I"ll go get it." (GS)

Granny Shen went to the back of the counter and came back with a big jade container. The jade container was shaped a like a vase, with wide bottom and narrow top along with a cork to seal it.
"Here is it, let"s go to the garden." (GS)
"Granny, let me carry that." (YX)
"Don"t worry, I"m not so old that I couldn"t carry anything anymore." (GS)
"Okay, Bai Yuan let"s go!" (YX)
"Ho! (Coming!)" (BY)
Granny Shen expression clouded with worry when seeing Bai Yuan coming, she drew close to Yan Xiu and whispered to him.
"Little Xiu, your demon beast... It wouldn"t eat my herbs, right?" (GS)
"Ahaha, Granny, don"t worry. Bai Yuan wouldn"t do that, he"s smart. Isn"t that right?" (YX)
"Uho! (Right!)" (BY)
Although she whispered, Bai Yuan sharp ears still heard what she said. Hearing Yan Xiu"s guarantee, granny Shen felt relieved and lead the way to her garden.
Her garden was full of vibrant and healthy herbs, the number of herbs in her garden also increased. But the one with the most change was the Gla.s.s Lime, it"s height increased to a full one meter, every part of it was full of vitality, and the fruits were deeper in color.
Seeing such a splendid garden, Yan Xiu couldn"t help but exclaimed.
"Wow~ granny, you"re garden is amazing! " (YX)
"Huhu, thank you. But all of this was possible thanks to you." (GS)
"Haha, I didn"t do anything. The green water only help a little, it was all because granny"s tender care." (YX)
"I see you"re tongue have become more witty and glib, did the hunter training include your tongue too?" (GS
"Hehe." (YX)
"Little rascal. Here, the Qi recovery medicine." (GS)
"Okay." (YX)
Yan Xiu took the bucket and jade container, he first filled the bucket and gave it to granny Shen. Granny shen then watered the garden with it, in the meantime, Yan Xiu recovered using the medicine.
Bai Yuan was wondering around the garden while observing the herbs, he was curious about the herbs. He wondered why the old female have so much bitter smelling plants. With the medicine aid, Yan Xiu quickly restored his energy.
He then filled the jade container and sealed it. His business here was done, so it was about time he leave.
"Granny, I"m done filling this. I"ll see you tomorrow. Bye bye!" (YX)
Yam Xiu called Bai Yuan and was ready to leave when granny Shen called out to him.
"Wait, Little Xiu!" (GS)
"What is it, granny?" (YX)
"Come back here at noon, let"s have lunch together. I"ll make something for your demon beast too." (GS)
"Oh okay! Thanks, granny!" (YX)
Yan Xiu climbed onto Bai Yuan"s shoulder and left with him, his destination was the Lus house. He wanted to take the pork from yesterday, usually he would need a wagon to carry it but now, he could just have Bai Yuan carried it.
While on the road, there was still many people looking at him and children following him. Thankfully they all dispersed when he reached the Lus house.
Lu Hao, who suddenly went out of the house, almost fall down when he saw Bai Yuan. Yan Xiu snickered and enjoyed seeing Lu Hao almost shocked to death.
"Hahahahaha." (YX)
When he saw Yan Xiu on the demon beast shoulder, he calmed down a little.
"Li-little Xiu! Th-this.... just what?" (LH)
"Lu Hao, meet the new addition of my family, Bai Yuan, the White Ape! Isn"t he cool?" (YX)
"Cool! Very cool!" (LH)
Lu Hao closed in and went around Bai Yuan, admiring him. Lu Hao"s good quality was he adapted and accepted his situation quickly. Lu Hao knew about contacted demon beast and had seen them when he went to the city with his father, so except the initial shocked, he didn"t feel anything.
"Little Xiu, how did you make contract with him?" (LH)
"It"s a long story." (YX)
"Make it short, then." (LH)
Yan Xiu rolled his eyes at Lu Hao but still shorten the story for him. After hearing the story, Lu Hao laughed.
"Hahahaha~ so basically, it was the fateful meeting of gluttons, hahaha~ no wonder, no wonder." (LH)
"Had enough yet? So what, you got a problem with our meeting? Ah?" (YX)
"Hahahaha no, no. But still haha~" (LH)
"Enough about me, what about you? How"s the trip to the city?" (XY)
"Haha, about that, same old same old. I was just accompanying my father there." (LH)
Had enough of laughing, Lu Hao leaned to Bai Yuan. Seeing how his master and this human interacted, Bai Yuan figured out that the human was a friend of his master so he just let the human leaned on him. Bai Yuan also sat down.
"But I did hear some interesting things there." (LH)
"Really? What is it?" (YX)
"First, there"s a rumor that a strong beast had come and settled around these parts." (LH)
"These parts, you mean at the forest?" (YX)
"Yup." (LH)
"What kind of beast is it?" (YX)
"Well, they didn"t talk about that, sorry." (LH)
"I see." (YX)
Lu Hao shook his head and shrugged his shoulder, Yan Xiu was disappointed, he was curious about it.
"What about the other rumors?" (YX)
"Ohho, this one is big! And I already confirmed this, so it"s 100% true!" (LH)
"What is it? Just say it." (YX)
"Two months from now, in Firehowl city, Disciple Recruiting event will be held!" (LH)
