Cultivation Pet Shop

After hanging up, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling that something was off, but there was nothing he could do.

So after relaxing for a bit, he went off to bed where Angela was waiting for him.

At the very least, they had made some progress as a couple. Even though she was angry, she no longer sent him to the couch like before and let him sleep in the bed with her.

In fact, she had gotten used to sleeping with him, so it was more of her wanting to sleep with him than not punishing.

But to a certain degree, this was a form of punishment for Lin Fan since he was so close, but so far at the same time. Even if he wanted to reach his hands out to touch the promised land, he was unable to do so since he knew what would happen to him.

After a nice night's sleep, Lin Fan was much more recharged.

He didn't want to admit it, but he had been quite drained during this exam.

It wasn't the final round that drained him, it was the stress of the second round and the fact that he had almost died that drained him. Even now, he was still wondering who had saved him in the end…

Still, that wasn't something that he could figure out right now, so he turned his attention back to what was important.

After having a simple breakfast, Lin Fan headed off to the Seekers Union with Momonga and Angela.

This talk would involve something that was very important to them, the new shop that Lin Fan was building. Since that was the case, it was very natural for them to follow him into this meeting.

When Lin Fan arrived in the main hall of the Seekers Union, everyone looked at him differently.

Since the Seekers Union was under the Hunters Organization, they received the news faster than outsiders would. Almost everyone here knew that Lin Fan was one of the only four people who had passed this year's Hunters Exam, so he was definitely worthy of their respect.

There were even a few girls who looked at Lin Fan differently, but the moment they did, they felt a chill fall over them. They didn't know where it came from, the only thing that they knew was that it only went away when they looked away from Lin Fan.

The person who was at the receptionist desk today wasn't Xiao Ling, rather it was someone that Lin Fan didn't recognize at all. However, that didn't mean that they were any less respectful. Rather, they were even more respectful towards Lin Fan because they weren't as close to him as Xiao Ling was.

The receptionist led Lin Fan to the second floor while also sneaking peeks, but she experienced the same problem as the other girls in the hall. There was a constant chill that hit her back whenever she tried to sneak peeks, so eventually she just gave up and did her job properly.

Lin Fan's group was brought to the second floor a third time and for the third time, they were brought to another new room that looked the same, but was painted a different colour.

Sitting in that room waiting for them was the old man from the Qiao Family and Qiao Yi Fei standing on the side.

When the old man saw Lin Fan come in, he revealed a smile and stood up to receive him, but Lin Fan quickly said, "Elder, there's no need for this. Please sit, please sit."

It was a fact that this old man had treated Lin Fan well and he repaid this in kind by treating this old man well, taking him as an elder of his.

Old man Qiao revealed a smile when he saw this and said, "Now, now, there's no need to be polite. Come and sit."

Lin Fan gave a nod, but he still waited for old man Qiao to sit down first before sitting down. Momonga and Angela both sat down after Lin Fan did.

Old man Qiao looked at Lin Fan for a minute before finally asking, "So, what did you call me out for? Is it related to your Hunter License or is it related to something else?" After saying this, his eyes went over to Qiao Yi Fei who had been staring at Momonga the entire time.

Lin Fan revealed an awkward smile before saying, "You can say that it is related to the Hunter License, but also not at the same time."

Then after a slight pause to reorganize his thoughts, Lin Fan said, "I want to open up a shop and I need to find some space for it. I was hoping that you would help me with that."

Old man Qiao put his hand up to stroke his chin after he heard this. After thinking for a bit, he said, "That's interesting, but you must need a space in a special place if you're coming to me. So if I had to guess, it should be one of the busy parts of Harmony City?"

Lin Fan had an awkward smile on his face as he hesitated a bit before saying, "If possible, I was hoping that you can help me find a store right in the center of Harmony City, right on Harmony Street."

Qiao Yi Fei who had been in a daze staring at Momonga the entire time heard this and she couldn't help cutting in as she said, "Are you kidding me? You're not afraid of becoming fat like this? You're asking for such a big mouthful and you don't feel any shame at all, I really have never met anyone with such a thick face before. You should know that Harmony Street is the most prosperous and busiest street in all of Harmony City, there's not a single store there that has failed because of the natural street traffic that is generated there and you…"

But before she could finish, old man Qiao had already raised his hand to stop her.

Qiao Yi Fei looked at her grandfather and said, "Grandfather, what are you…"

This time, old man Qiao looked at her with a slightly cold gaze and said, "That's enough."

When she saw this and heard the tone he spoke to her in, she immediately closed her mouth and stood straight. This was a tone that she had rarely ever heard from her grandfather since usually he was very carefree and to be honest, he pampered her to an extent that could be considered overkill. This was a rare tone that he used when he reprimanded her and it only happened when he was really disappointed in her.

However, that also confused her because she didn't feel like she had done anything wrong. Rather it was Lin Fan who had made the excessive demand no matter how you looked at it and she was just standing up for her grandfather.

Old man Qiao turned back to Lin Fan and revealed a smile as he said, "Well, your request isn't impossible, but let me hear what you want to do with the space first."

Lin Fan was surprised when he heard this because even he felt that this was an excessive request and if it was him, he definitely would have rejected it without even thinking about it. However, the words that old man Qiao said almost seemed like he was willing to give Lin Fan the store.

After Lin Fan came back from his shock, he said, "I'm planning on opening a pet training shop. I was just hoping that you would provide me with the space for it."

Of course, Lin Fan didn't mention any conditions because in the end, most of the money that was earned through the shop would go right to the system and he wouldn't be able to share any of the profits since he would still need that meager amount that he did get to fund other things. In fact, he was hoping to get the store for free, but he didn't have the face to say this.

Old man Qiao revealed a surprised look when he heard this before he asked, "You're going to open a pet training shop? Do you even know anything about that?"

Lin Fan waved his hand and called out all five of his pets.

When they appeared, they appeared in their human forms so it was strange seeing all these children appear, but old man Qiao was able to easily recognize them.

Old man Qiao narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan's pets before saying, "Ho, you have this many pets at this level. It seems like you really do know a thing or two about training them."

Then after saying this, he fell silent like he was thinking something over.

It was at this time that the silent Momonga who hadn't said a single thing the entire time suddenly chimed in with, "I can tell you that he's quite good at it, especially with all the things that his master has taught him."

It was at this that old man Qiao narrowed his eyes again.

To be honest, Lin Fan was an outstanding person, but he was just so outstanding that it was strange.

For him to appear out of nowhere like this, it really did raise questions.

But if he were to have a master…

After another pause, old man Qiao said, "Alright, I have an old restaurant there that I'm not using so I can give it to you to use."
