The next morning, Qiao Sang woke up and went into the bathroom to freshen up.

Just as she picked up her toothbrush, Little Treasure suddenly appeared beside the mirror.

"Xun Xun!"

Little Treasure shook the yellow rings on his two short claws excitedly.

Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment and instinctively looked at Little Treasure’s head.

It was gone…

Qiao Sang took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm.

"Did you use ghost fire to split the ring into two?" Qiao Sang asked, trembling.

Although the truth was right in front of her, there were still some things she wanted to confirm.

Just like when a child holds an acceptance letter from Tsinghua University, and the parents, having already looked it over, still ask, “You got into Tsinghua?!”

That was Qiao Sang’s mindset right now.

She couldn't believe it. It hadn’t even been a week since Little Treasure learned Will-o'-the-Wisp, and he already split the ring into two. Was this even scientifically possible?!

"Xun Xun~"

Little Treasure nodded happily, shaking the rings.

As Little Treasure nodded, Qiao Sang’s heart skipped several beats.

A genius!

This was a true genius!

She’d never heard of a Treasure-Seeking ghost being able to forge two rings so quickly! If talent could be rated, this would definitely be top-tier!

Suddenly, Qiao Sang thought of something and asked, "With your rings being so much smaller, does that mean you can’t store as much anymore?"

Judging by the size of the rings, it looked like they wouldn’t even fit a bottle of milk.

"Xun~"

Little Treasure grinned, took off the ring from his claw, and tossed it into the air.

In an instant, the ring expanded, quickly returning to its original size, large enough to fit over his head.

"Awesome." Qiao Sang gave him a thumbs-up.

Good thing; she was worried she'd have to carry everything herself from now on…

"Xun~"

Just as Qiao Sang was about to continue brushing her teeth, Little Treasure let out a sound.

"What’s up?" Qiao Sang turned and asked.

"Xun Xun~" Little Treasure Ghost spun around, then stopped and looked expectantly at his beastmaster.

Qiao Sang was startled.

“You want to evolve?”

"Xun Xun!"

Little Treasure nodded happily.

Qiao Sang thought carefully. Now that Little Treasure’s rings were split into two, his energy level had also surpassed his maximum energy threshold, so evolution was indeed possible.

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang said, “If you work hard and master Hypnosis, I think you’ll be ready to evolve.”

Since Little Treasure couldn’t duplicate himself, even though he practiced skill release regularly, his proficiency progressed slower than Yabao’s.

Still, the skill proficiency was steadily increasing each day.

At the current rate, Hypnosis would definitely reach mastery within a month.

Qiao Sang felt that having Little Treasure evolve after mastering a skill to perfection would better unleash his potential.

Letting Little Treasure evolve after achieving mastery would also give it a stronger sense of accomplishment.

Otherwise, if Little Treasure knew he could use a cheat to evolve by adding points, with his personality, he would likely slack off in training afterward.

"Xun!"

Since his beastmaster said he could evolve, then he surely could! Little Treasure called out excitedly.

Then, he teleported to the courtyard to practice Hypnosis on some ants.

After breakfast, Qiao Sang, with a backpack containing Water Luriana, sat on Yabao's back and set off for school.

As soon as they stepped out of the neighborhood, she saw a slim figure waving at her from afar.

"Little sister."

As the figure approached, Qiao Sang recognized her as a nearby office worker, someone she often saw among the crowd taking photos of Yabao recently.

She’d only calmed down a bit after Little Treasure ’s appearance.

"Xun!"

Little Treasure also recognized her, quickly taking off his ring and pulling out a mirror and pen to reapply the scars on his face.

This time, the woman didn’t avoid the ghost.

Instead, she hesitated, stepped closer to Qiao Sang, and warned, “You should head home quickly after school these days and don’t wander around. There’s a creep nearby.”

Qiao Sang blinked.

“A creep?”

“Yes, a creep. A chubby guy with pimples on his face, hiding in alleys and targeting women who are alone.” Yhe woman said, shuddering.

“I ran into him yesterday. Too bad he got away so fast; otherwise, I’d have taken him to the police!”

"Thank you, I’ll be careful." Qiao Sang replied gratefully.

The woman grinned.

“If you’re really thankful, let me pet Flame Hound.”

Qiao Sang: …

“Yap…”

Yabao sighed helplessly.

Another human wanting to take advantage of him.

Qiao Sang continued on her way to school, but just two blocks later, the sky suddenly darkened, and it started raining.

People nearby covered their heads and ran.

But after only a short distance, they stopped, surprised, and lowered their hands.

Qiao Sang looked ahead, confused. The rain only spanned about six meters, the end of it clearly visible.

“Yap…”

Yabao, drenched, pouted and sped up.

Yet somehow, despite the six-meter radius, they couldn’t escape the rain.

Qiao Sang looked up in confusion, only to find the black cloud seemingly following her, in a very eerie way.

Hidden in the shadows, Li Songhai watched Qiao Sang closely, his eyes bloodshot, a sign of poor sleep.

"Chi chi~"

Beside him, a blue bird with grayish-blue underbelly and black and blue wings chirped.

"Wait a little longer." Li Songhai rasped.

He hadn’t slept for two days, his nerves on edge. He knew he should rest before acting, but his anger from being deceived and yesterday’s failed stakeout drove him to get the Water Luriana as soon as possible and leave this wretched place.

As soon as the little girl took out her umbrella or used her bag as cover, he’d have his Rain Swallow snatch the bag.

With Rain Swallow’s speed, there was no way she could catch up.

In the end, he felt he was being lenient, only letting her get wet in the rain… Li Songhai stared at Qiao Sang with bloodshot eyes.

In the next second, his eyes widened in shock.

He saw the ghost-type pet he’d initially mistaken for a psychic-type toss the ring in the air, and it expanded instantly.

Then the ghost-type pet reached inside the ring and pulled out… an umbrella.

Li Songhai was stunned.

“What on earth?!”

At that moment, Yabao’s ears twitched.

Qiao Sang opened the umbrella, looked up at the cloud that seemed to follow her, and felt something was off.

It felt like this rain was targeted just at her

She recalled a saying: All unnatural phenomena are caused by supernatural creatures. Could a supernatural creature be watching her?
