Free Web Novel“Dad, you really have good luck. That legendary story of how your Baluo Ironhead earned money the first time, and you then unilaterally used that money to buy a thousand scratch-offs, only to win nothing, and Grandma chased you down three streets to beat you, is known by everyone on our old street.”
Don't let his intellectual and elegant name fool you; he was quite a troublemaker in his youth.
Before he was 22, he smoked, drank, permed his hair, had a Bodhisattva tattooed on his back, a large dragon carved on his chest, and his catchphrase was 'rules are meant to be broken.' He was a notorious rebel, despised by both people and dogs.
Only after he started dating Wei Lanzhi and had the original host did he begin to turn over a new leaf and become a good husband and father.
In the original host's memories, her father was the one who doted on her the most.
As Grandma described it—
“He held you more carefully than he would worship Buddha.”
Ming Zhiyun indeed spared no effort to sign up for the Green Field Star exploration team at the time, all to provide a better life for his mother, the original host, and Wei Lanzhi.
These years of being forcibly confined in the Nine Gods Temple seemed to have blunted his sharpness and edges.
But they did not extinguish his childlike innocence.
For example, he still insisted that he was a Son of Fortune, the luckiest guy on their street.
“Child, how can you reveal your dad's old secrets? Besides, that time, it was clearly the money earned by Baluo Baluo that was tainted with bad luck and cursed by a Ghost-type pet, which is why I didn't win anything.”
“Hehe.”
“You believe Dad, Dad’s luck is incomparably beautiful!”
“Alright, alright, I believe you.”
Seeing him flushed with urgency, what else could Mingxi do? Of course, she had to believe him.
The two people and one beast chose their respective blind boxes. Chiyu chose the large red gift package, leaving Mingxi with only the last and largest black blind box.
They didn't bother to defer to each other. While the kids in the house were out causing trouble for others, they quickly acted first and reported later.
“I’m opening it.”
“Ye He.”
The two people and one beast, with their six eyes, looked at each other and almost simultaneously opened their blind boxes.
“What is this?”
Ming Zhiyun stared at the dark green object in the box, looking bewildered.
He couldn't help but start to doubt,
“Am I really that unlucky?”
Seeing his expression of doubting life, Mingxi didn't bother to look at the contents of her own large box. She first leaned over to peek into his box.
After seeing it clearly—
“Oh, wow!”
What do you think was inside?
It was Little Silver Flower's favorite food, besides the power of rules: a slab of eggshell!
“Dad, this is an Ancient Ancestral Dragon Eggshell!!” free𝑤ebnovel.com
With this slab of eggshell, Little Silver Flower could be perfectly appeased.
“Is it very valuable?”
“Of course, extremely, extremely valuable. Let me put it this way: a primary Dragon-type Transcendent creature can reach its energy level cap directly from its newly hatched state ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) by consuming just a tiny, rice-sized bit, without any side effects.
Moreover, it can greatly increase the proficiency of Dragon-type skills.”
Little Silver Flower, being so lazy, has always maintained a strength comparable to the top achievers, and her skill proficiency even surpasses that of Lan Yue. This eggshell is definitely the biggest contributor.
Its value simply cannot be measured in star coins.
After hearing Mingxi's explanation, Ming Zhiyun was stunned for a moment, then laughed like an idiot who had just found money.
“I told you, your dad has boundless good fortune and is destined for prosperity.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Although she felt that her dad's situation should be called 'turning misfortune into fortune'.
More than ten years of hardships and trials.
His bad luck should be almost cleared out by now.
“Mingxi, there seems to be something else under this eggshell?”
Mingxi focused her gaze and indeed, there was.
It was pressed right under the eggshell.
It was a fist-sized purple stone, deep purple inside, like an amethyst.
“This looks like... could it be?”
The father and daughter looked at each other and simultaneously exclaimed: “hongmeng stone!”
From its appearance, this amethyst was very similar to a hongmeng stone, but its color was deeper and more vibrant, and it lacked the rough texture of a hongmeng stone.
It was like a refined version of the hongmeng stone.
Guangguang, the know-it-all: “Master, this is Hongmeng Essence Jade. Like ordinary stone essence and stone soul, it is a type of spirit essence from stones.”
“Tens of thousands of tons of hongmeng stone ore can’t even yield a pound and a half of Hongmeng Essence Jade?”
“That’s right.”
“It seems my dad's luck has really turned around.”
Since Hongmeng Essence Jade is the plus essence version of hongmeng stone, its effects are naturally similar to hongmeng stone. It can also directly increase a Beast Tamers's brain domain development.
Moreover, it will not cause rejection even if Hongmeng Awakening has already been performed.
The lower the Beast Tamers's brain domain development, the better the effect of Hongmeng Essence Jade.
In other words, it wouldn't have much effect on Mingxi, but it would be of great use to Ming Zhiyun.
Coupled with the fact that Mingxi still had many bai xi fruit, it should be enough to help his brain domain development break through 50%.
“Dad, this is Hongmeng Essence Jade. You keep it for now. Later, I’ll have Emerald Green refine some potions to help you with your fifth awakening.”
Ming Zhiyun frowned: “Mingxi, Hongmeng Essence Jade is useful to you too. Dad can’t take it.”
He just hadn't shown it for years and was itching to test his unparalleled luck; he never intended to take advantage of his daughter.
Other things were fine.
But Hongmeng Essence Jade was a treasure that could directly increase brain domain development, and it would be of great use to his daughter too.
“Dad, have you forgotten? I’ve already had my eighth awakening. Hongmeng Essence Jade has a very limited effect on me. It will achieve its maximum effect if you use it. We should also consider maximizing its utilization, shouldn't we?”
Mingxi was eager to open her own large box. Emulating Golden Yuanbao's domineering CEO persona, she shoved the Hongmeng Essence Jade into his hand, “You big, strong man, stop being so wishy-washy. Your daughter, me, truly doesn't lack this bit of brain domain development.”
“Besides, as my Mingxi's father, your daughter is an SS-Class Beast Master, a genius recognized by the Alliance, yet you are middle-aged and only a C-rank Beastmaster, with no talent and weak strength. Is that appropriate?”
Ming Zhiyun thought about it and indeed, it did seem a bit inappropriate.
When he returned to Blue Star and showed off his daughter to the neighbors, they would probably suspect that his daughter wasn't his biological child?
How could that be allowed?!
Wei Lanzhi could cheat, but his daughter had to be his!
“You’re right! Dad needs to improve his strength as soon as possible!” He slapped the back of his chair and stood up directly.
Seeing her father full of vigor and ambition, Mingxi was quite satisfied with the 'toxic chicken soup' she had given him.
“Come, come, let’s see what’s in my box?”
Mingxi lifted the lid of the box, then her face darkened.
Inside was a box that had only shrunk a little.
She felt that she might have encountered a blind box set similar to Russian nesting dolls.
Facts proved that she was not wrong.
She opened one after another, until the room was filled with boxes of all sizes, until Mingxi's face was flushed, her forehead was sweating, and she directly entered her stubborn bronze personality.
She kept opening them until only a box the size of a ring box was left in her hand.
“This is ridiculous!”
Mingxi glared at the 'ring box' in her hand as if it were an archenemy from a past life.
