Manager Shang wrapped the mangy cat and fat-headed fish that came out of the Sun Flame Pond in a towel and placed them on the ground aside.
The leprous cat is of course Li Xuan, but now most of his black fur, as smooth as brocade, has been burned, and there are many burn marks on his skin.
Manager Shang had just poured some water from the Moon Yin Pool on Li Xuan, but the effect was very limited.
"Fortunately, because it was nourished by the formation at the bottom of the pool, the injury is not serious."
"I just didn't expect that Xuan would not only hit the bottom successfully, but also bring this fish up."
Manager Shang looked at the fat-headed fish whose tail had been bitten by Li Xuan until now, and couldn't help but frown.
"And why is this golden flame fish so fat..."
Manager Shang also felt a little speechless.
A few years ago, he watched this fish being brought to Sunyan Lake for placement.
I just didn't expect that that little fry would have such a growth.
"This fish matter must be reported to His Majesty before we can discuss it."
Manager Shang thought for a while and couldn't help but shook his head.
"It's been quite a rough day today."
Looking at Li Xuan who had lost all his beautiful fur, Manager Shang couldn't help but smile, and then touched the remaining hair on Li Xuan's head with his fingers.
"But judging from the results, it was still successful."
Manager Shang had just saved some energy for Li Xuan, enough to make him regain consciousness immediately.
As for the subsequent recovery, he needs to complete it himself.
This is also a necessary process to digest the benefits brought to him by the Sun and Moon Yin Yang Pond.
By the time this process is over, Li Xuan estimates that he will have reached the marrow training realm.
"It's only been a few months, and Ah Xuan has already completed the cultivation of the lower third level."
Manager Shang couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Through the situation between Deng Weixian and Zhao Bugao, Manager Shang and Zhao Feng had already estimated the time when Li Xuan would start practicing martial arts. The longest they could do was to start practicing martial arts at the same time as Deng Weixian.
Moreover, this also includes a state of physical strength that stumps countless people, which really surprises even masters like Mr. Shang.
Seeing that Li Xuan had now reached the bottom of the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Pond, he felt even more emotional.
“It’s been so many years, but I never thought that the person who would reach the bottom of the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Pond this time would actually be a cat.”
Seeing that Li Xuan's breath had stabilized, Manager Shang picked up the cat and fish.
"It's better to report this matter to Your Majesty immediately."
"Whether to stay in Sun Flame Pond or reward Li Xuan, there has to be a conclusion."
But Manager Shang looked at Li Xuan biting the fish's tail and refused to let go, and was afraid that if the fish was not given to him, he would be the first to refuse.
Manager Shang carried them out of Yuqing Pond and hurried towards the Ganlu Hall.
When they arrived at the Ganlu Hall and passed the call, Wang Xi at the door checked what was in Mr. Shang's arms.
Wang Xi frowned, pointed at the cat and fish wrapped in the towel, and said strangely: "This is..."
"Eunuch Wang, this is A Xuan."
"You know Yu. The situation is special and I came here to report it to Your Majesty."
Manager Shang explained.
Wang Xi didn't say much, he just wanted to confirm what was wrapped in the towel.
Not long after, Manager Shang was summoned.
Emperor Yongyuan frowned when he saw the unconscious mangy cat biting the fat-headed fish, and asked Manager Shang, "What is going on?"
"Your Majesty, Ah Xuan tried to touch the bottom of the Sun Flame Pond today. After touching the bottom, he unexpectedly caught the Golden Flame Fish in his mouth."
"Judging from his appearance, he must have been in a fight. Ah Xuan accidentally sucked a lot of blood from the golden flame fish."
As a result, Emperor Yongyuan was moved for the first time, and he confirmed in surprise: "This is the golden flame fish from back then!?"
The Golden Flame Fish is a special creature that comes from the endless sea of fire. It does not need to eat and only needs heat to survive.
For them, there is only one necessity for survival, and that is the sun.
They can survive wherever there is sun.
Of course, if there is better heat energy, the golden fish can also grow better. For example, the one in front of you has almost become a ball and is fatter than a cat.
But Emperor Yongyuan clearly remembered that when he threw this golden flame fish into the Sun Flame Pond a few years ago, it was only the size of a finger.
I never imagined that it would grow so big in just a few years.
Emperor Yongyuan had not seen this golden flame fish for several years.
He originally thought it was the size of an ordinary fish.
When he and Li Xuan talked about what was hidden at the bottom of the Sun Flame Pond, he just wanted to use the golden flame fish to show off.
This fish was offered as a gift by someone before. It is just a rare and rare animal.
If humans want to taste it, they need to go through extremely complicated processing, and it doesn't taste that good, so it seems a bit tasteless.
When he was thrown into the Sun Flame Pond, he was just doing whatever he wanted to do to find the most suitable environment for the Golden Flame Fish to live in.
But I never expected that by some mistake, this Golden Flame Fish would have a chance.
"The golden flame fish that can grow so big can only be found in the depths of the endless sea of fire, right?"
Emperor Yongyuan clicked his tongue and praised the strange way.
But Emperor Yongyuan soon realized something.
That is, Li Xuan defeated the fish under the water and dragged it ashore.
In this way, he had nothing to hesitate at all.
"This fish was originally intended to be given to Ah Xuan."
"Since he has the ability to catch the fish, it is naturally up to him to handle it."
Emperor Yongyuan waved his hand and said casually.
Manager Shang was relieved to receive a positive reply.
"It's just that Ah Xuan's hair is a little messy from being burned."
Emperor Yongyuan also felt a little sorry when he looked at Li Xuan's current appearance.
This cat will probably look ugly for a while.
"Your Majesty, don't disturb me. After practicing the Marrow Realm, my body's recovery ability has greatly increased, so this injury is not a problem."
"As for the fur, I heard that Doctor Xue recently developed a hair-growing ointment. Maybe you can give it a try."
Manager Shang thought of a way.
"Okay, I'll leave these things to you."
Emperor Yongyuan was silent for a moment, and then said:
"Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, just step back."
"Old slave, please retire."
Manager Shang immediately held Li Xuan and Fat-headed Fish in his arms and exited the Manna Hall.
He then came to Jingyang Palace, but before entering, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Although Mr. Shang didn't do it, he still felt guilty for taking care of other people's cats like this.
After sorting out his emotions, Manager Shang knocked on the door of Jingyang Palace.
Not long after he was invited in, the mournful cry of Princess Ankang could be heard in Jingyang Palace.
"Axuan, my good Axuan!"
"What's wrong with you?"
The little girl looked at Li Xuan's embarrassed appearance and dropped her little pearl in distress.
Even though Li Xuan turned into a mangy cat, Princess Ankang still recognized him at a glance.
"Your Highness, Ah Xuan is fine."
"You are so ugly, how can you be okay?"
Manager Shang wanted to comfort her, but Princess Ankang cried even harder.
"Well, the old slave is saying that Ah Xuan's injury is not serious and he will recover in a few days."
"As for the burned hair, I'm afraid it will take a little more time."
Manager Shang planned not to mention the hair growth cream for now, and after getting it from Dr. Xue in two days, he would send it directly to Jingyang Palace.
"Manager Shang, tell me the truth, what happened to Ah Xuan?"
"And what's the matter with the golden pig he keeps holding in his mouth?"
Princess Ankang asked with tears streaming down her face.
Yu'er touched Princess Ankang with her elbow and whispered in her ear:
"Your Highness, that seems to be a fish, not a pig."
Princess Ankang stopped crying and stared at the thing Li Xuan was biting in astonishment, as if she really saw a fish tail.
"Is there such a big fish?"
Princess Ankang couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Me, this is my first time seeing it, but it must be a fish."
Yu'er also said with some uncertainty.
Manager Shang had no choice but to tell the truth and tell Princess Ankang and Yu'er what Li Xuan had experienced previously.
But in many places, he brushed it off, only saying that Li Xuan took such risks to become stronger, and this time he succeeded in taking risks.
As for this golden flame fish, it is Li Xuan's trophy.
Manager Shang asked Yu'er to bring a basin of water, and then tried to open Li Xuan's mouth, wanting to put the Golden Flame Fish into the basin first.
Because no matter how you deal with the golden fish in the future, you need to keep it as active as possible.
Otherwise, the taste and nutrition of the dead fish will be greatly reduced.
But Manager Shang tried it and found that he couldn't open Li Xuan's mouth.
Naturally, he has the ability to force it open, but in that case, Li Xuan will inevitably be injured.
Manager Shang couldn't help but feel speechless for a while. He didn't know what kind of hatred the cat and the fish had under the water. Li Xuan actually had such an obsession and wouldn't let go even if he was unconscious.
And Jin Yanyu also stared with dead fish eyes, full of dementia.
If it hadn't been for a few sparks flashing across its body from time to time, Manager Shang would have thought it was dead.
As mentioned before, the golden flame fish is a rare and rare animal, and its survival mainly depends on heat energy.
The weather is nice today, with the sun shining brightly above our heads.
But now the sun is setting in the west, and the sun is about to set.
Jinyanyu's tail was injured and his blood was sucked by Li Xuan, so his condition was not very good.
If he didn't put it back into the water, he would probably die soon.
At this moment, Li Xuan woke up faintly when he felt some pain in his tooth.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw three people surrounding him.
In particular, Manager Shang seemed to want to snatch the fat-headed fish from his mouth.
Suppressing the physical discomfort, Li Xuan put a little more force on his teeth.
The dull eyes of the Golden Flame Fish suddenly became clear, and it was fluttering in pain.
"Axuan, please let go first, this fish is going to die."
"Don't worry, no one will take it from you."
Li Xuan woke up, and Manager Shang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and quickly offered some good words.
After persuading him for a long time, Li Xuan believed that Manager Shang was not trying to steal his fish.
And he persisted to the limit, and finally let go of his mouth weakly.
There are two more blood holes on the plump and short tail of the Golden Flame Fish, but now they don't see much blood.
It was actually when he was in the Sun Flame Pond that he was sucked full by Li Xuan.
If the sun wasn't still hanging in the sky now, the Golden Flame Fish would have died long ago.
Manager Shang put the golden fish into the basin and felt relieved when he saw that it had no strength to swim.
"This fish has a violent nature, but because it has been kept in captivity for a long time, its temper is now much more docile."
"You'd better find a deeper water tank for it to keep in the future, and then cover it with a lid. When the time comes, it won't be able to see outside, and it will naturally become more peaceful."
Manager Shang told Yu'er.
Yu'er nodded repeatedly to indicate that she had taken note of it.
