Chapter 123 The Consequences of Failed Evolution
"Is it Tie Ruhua?" Seeing Li Qian pick up the envelope and start reading it, Professor Yan next to him smiled faintly and guessed.
Li Qian was a little surprised when he heard this.
Professor Yan looked at the letter in Li Qian's hand and said helplessly, "Such an old-fashioned way of communication, he is the only one who still uses it now. Did he leave without saying goodbye again?"
After hearing what Professor Yan said, Li Qian's face became even more surprised.
But I soon figured out the trick.
Mr. Tie and Professor Yan are both seniors at Shazhou Beast Taming University, so it is normal for them to know each other. In fact, judging from the current situation, the two of them should not only know each other, but may also have a very good relationship.
Otherwise, Professor Yan would not have said such a thing.
"It's always like this. Whenever I appear, he will take the initiative to avoid me..." Before Li Qian could answer, Professor Yan continued speaking, and his words also filled the former with curiosity.
Yes, Li Qian was indeed very curious. He didn’t understand what Professor Yan meant by this. What did he mean by “as long as I appear, he will take the initiative to avoid me”?
Could it be that the relationship between the two was not as he had guessed, and there were other hidden secrets or conflicts? Or, could it be that Mr. Tie had done something to let Professor Yan down, and that he was ashamed to see Professor Yan?
Driven by curiosity, Li Qian couldn't help but ask, "Well, excuse me, is there something going on between you and Tie Lao... Why is he avoiding you?"
Tie Lao had played a joke on him before, causing his mother Han Yuying and Niu Fenjin to spread rumors, and the latter came over excitedly to question him.
This matter is not over, it’s just that Li Qian didn’t find a way to fight back. Now that he sees hope, he will not let it go.
Therefore, he was very happy to find out about Tie Lao's secrets. Besides, he had to go to Shazhou Beast Taming University after the summer vacation, so he would not have to worry about not having the opportunity to "fight back".
"Actually, it's nothing serious. It's just that my friend is upset..." Professor Yan sighed and then spoke.
"What exactly happened?" Li Qian became even more curious after hearing this, but he was not in a hurry. Instead, he asked slowly.
Professor Yan looked at Li Qian, thought for a while, and then said in a complicated tone: "It's okay to say it out loud. After all, you will definitely hear about it after entering Shazhou Beast Taming University."
"Instead of listening to those messed-up versions, I'd rather tell you directly."
Professor Yan glanced at the envelope in Li Qian's hand, as if he was looking at his old buddy, old friend, and old brother Tie Ruhua. "It's nothing serious. When he was young, he fell in love with a girl, and in the end, that girl married me."
"Oh, so he likes it..." Li Qian subconsciously agreed after hearing this, but he suddenly stopped halfway through.
"Wait, what the hell, when Mr. Tie was young, he fell in love with a girl, and in the end, that girl married you, Professor Yan?!"
Li Qian widened his eyes and made an incredulous sound. He looked at Professor Yan, his eyes suddenly brightened, with the word "gossip" flashing in them.
At this moment, he figured out some things and finally understood why Tie Lao was still single.
He must be obsessed with Madam Yan.
It’s so unforgettable, maybe it’s first love.
Li Qian speculated in his mind and had already prepared the words to say the next time he met Tie Lao. This love history must be discussed, otherwise how could he justify the rumors spread from him.
"Yes, it's just such an incident. So many years have passed, but he is still brooding over it. He will deliberately avoid wherever I go!" Professor Yan said with some sigh.
He spoke with great emotion, but Li Qian could vaguely hear a hint of pride in it.
Stealing Tie Lao's white moonlight might not be his greatest achievement, but why does it seem like there is a vague sense of showing off?
Thinking of this, Li Qian looked towards Professor Yan with a hint of suspicion in his eyes. He and Mr. Tie were really good friends and good partners. Could they be "mortal enemies"?
After all, the hatred of having one's wife stolen is irreconcilable.
Well, strictly speaking, it doesn’t seem to have reached the point of “stealing the wife”.
After noticing something unusual, Li Qian decisively chose to cover for Tie Lao.
It is your own business to laugh at Mr. Tie, but you cannot allow Professor Yan, a rough guy, to show off his superiority here.
So he followed the contents of the letter, nodded, and said in agreement: "Maybe there really is something wrong. After all, Tie Lao is the guardian of the dimensional rift of Shazhou Beast Taming University."
His words helped Tie Lao smooth things over.
After that, he didn't waste any more time and directly brought the topic back on track, "By the way, Professor Yan, let's talk about the Sky-Eagle."
Professor Yan heard Li Qian's hidden intention of protecting him, so he did not delve into the topic. Instead, he frowned and said, "Okay, let's talk about the Sky-Eagle."
Without stopping, he continued to speak, asking for confirmation: "I heard from the people at the school liaison office that you have researched the evolution method of Koi to Frostfire Demon Newt, and you want to exchange a Frostfire Demon Newt for a Sky Falcon?"
Li Qian nodded.
Professor Yan restrained his smile and his face turned serious. He spoke in a serious tone, "However, there is one thing I need to explain to you in advance. The evolution probability of my Sky-Eagle is a bit low..."
Hearing this, Li Qian quickly grasped the key point. He immediately asked, "How low is it? If the evolution fails, what will be the sequelae?"
Through the study during this period, coupled with the research on the evolution methods of Koi to Blue Scale Dragon and Koi to Frost Fire Demon Newt, Li Qian is no longer the novice in breeding, not to mention being well-educated and experienced.
From a gray bean pigeon to a sky-flying eagle, from elite level to overlord level, and even to the middle level of overlord, there is a world of difference between the two. Taking a step forward is like ascending to the sky or leaping over the dragon gate. If such a huge transformation fails, the price should not be low.
This is what Li Qian guessed and asked. The next moment, Professor Yan's answer confirmed his thoughts, "If the evolution fails, at best, the hope of further evolution will be cut off, and at worst, the person will be injured or even die directly!"
The word "death" that came out of Professor Yan's mouth made Li Qian's brows twist into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
With such serious consequences, no matter how attractive the potential of the Sky-Eagle is, one has to think seriously about it. If it really doesn't work, the Cloud-Piercing Goose is also acceptable, which is better than the Storm Eagle.
