Ben Ben woke from his sleep to find that Xu Fan had already left his side.

Xu Fan had already taken a step ahead and descended the stairs, arriving at the living room sofa, where he lifted his sweet daughter Tongtong into his arms.

“Daddy, daddy, is Ben Ben’s leg all healed?” Tongtong asked Xu Fan, a bit worried.

“Of course, who do you think your dad is?” Xu Fan said to Tongtong with a bit of swagger.

“I want to see Ben Ben.” Hearing that Ben Ben had been healed, Tongtong leaped three feet high, struggling out of Xu Fan’s embrace, wanting to run upstairs to see Ben Ben, whose leg had been healed.

Xu Fan hoisted Tongtong onto his shoulders and said to her, “No need to go upstairs, I’ll call him down.”

Immediately after, Xu Fan blew a light whistle towards the upstairs.

Ben Ben, having just woken up from his fragmented dreams at the sound of the whistle, instantly perked up, dashed out on all four legs, and appeared outside the bedroom in a flash.

Seeing Xu Fan and Tongtong on the sofa downstairs, Ben Ben didn’t bother with the stairs and, with a gentle leap, jumped from the second floor into the living room.

Ben Ben’s four hooves had thick pads that touched the ground gently without making a sound.

Tongtong, looking at Ben Ben now, said with some surprise, “Daddy, is that really Ben Ben? Why has he become so big?”

No wonder Tongtong was curious; after Ben Ben had been treated with the Spirit-awakening Pill and undergone Washing Marrow and Cutting Hair, activating the Qilin Bloodline, he no longer resembled the skinny, dirty little dog that had been locked up in a cage.

The current Ben Ben, having undergone The Classic of Changes’ Marrow Cleansing, had ballooned in size. He grew from the size of a three-month-old puppy to that of at least a year and a half old, his weight reaching forty kilograms, standing at one meter tall.

And his previously sparse and untidy fur had become as smooth as silk, now gleaming with a shiny lustre. Even the finest fur in the world couldn’t compare to Ben Ben’s current fur.

Originally, Ben Ben’s fur was a somewhat dingy white. After the transformation, his entire coat had become translucent like jade, not a single stray hair to be seen, clean and refreshing.

His eyes had turned to a fiery red, like a rabbit afflicted with red eye; only Xu Fan knew this was the hallmark of the Qilin Bloodline, and that those red eyes of the silly dog could emit real fire.

Seeing Ben Ben’s frame become so large, and even the fangs in his mouth and claws on his feet appeared exceptionally intimidating, Tongtong immediately looked timidly at Xu Fan and said, “Daddy, is that really Ben Ben? Why does he look so fierce?”

“You little beast, change back to your original form,” Xu Fan lightly scolded Ben Ben.

“Woof Woof… I was only handsome for three seconds,” Ben Ben whined twice. Though he was quite pleased with his current imposing appearance, he quickly submitted under Xu Fan’s authority.

As soon as Xu Fan’s words fell, Ben Ben’s massive body shrunk down like a deflating balloon, reducing to several times smaller in an instant, returning to the size seen at the pet shop.

“That’s my Ben Ben,” Tongtong flashed a smile, stretched out her little hand, and lunged towards Ben Ben.

Ben Ben was also delighted to frolic with her—a little girl and a little dog, soon romping around in the living room, intermittently mixed with the whining of the puppy and Tongtong’s bell-like laughter.

“Ben Ben, if no accidents happen, stay in this normal size. Only if the young master encounters an accident should you reveal your abilities and assume your battle form,” Xu Fan communicated to Ben Ben using Divine Sense.

“Woof woof… Ben Ben understands, Ben Ben will definitely protect the young master,” Ben Ben, whose tail was being pulled by Tongtong, chased around the living room in disarray.

After observing for a while, Xu Fan realized that Ben Ben’s abilities were no weaker than those of an average martial artist. Coupled with the innate divine fire ability of the Qilin race, he could certainly protect Tongtong’s safety in most situations.

“Tongtong, our Ben Ben is not only more agile now, but his little doggie head has also gotten smarter,” Xu Fan said with a mischievous smile to Tongtong, who was playing happily with Ben Ben.

“Woo woo… Master, you’re making things hard for me… Ben Ben is so miserable,” Ben Ben howled plaintively at Xu Fan.

Xu Fan laughed heartily, ignoring the resentful look in Ben Ben’s eyes.

When Tongtong heard Xu Fan’s words, she suddenly became interested in Ben Ben’s intelligence and stretched out her small hand to touch Ben Ben’s smooth head, saying, “Ben Ben, Ben Ben, sit down quickly.”

“Woo woo…” Ben Ben whined a bit pitifully, obediently sat down with his butt moving back, and placed his front paws in front of his belly.

“Ben Ben, shake hands,” Tongtong reached out her little hand again, waving it towards Ben Ben.

Ben Ben, feeling helpless, extended a paw and gently placed it on Tongtong’s small hand, giving a friendly shake.

“Daddy, daddy, Ben Ben seems to have gotten smarter. He really understands what Tongtong says,” Tongtong’s face beamed with excitement as she spoke to Xu Fan.

“Of course, the companion I prepared for Tongtong is the best little doggy in the whole world,” Xu Fan proudly said to Tongtong with a smile.

“Tongtong loves Daddy to death,” Tongtong made a pouty face at Xu Fan from across the room and then blew two kisses to express her feelings.

Xu Fan glanced at Ben Ben who was sitting on the floor like a well-behaved elementary student and said seriously, “Behave and play with the young master, don’t be sneaky or sly.”

“Woo woo… Ben Ben obeys the command,” Ben Ben nodded his head, his eyes filled with a touch of sadness.

“Ben Ben, go and bring me the chips from the table,” Tongtong clapped her hands and commanded Ben Ben.

Ben Ben wagged his tail and with a flash, he was by the coffee table, his head scanning over a pile of snack bags, looking a bit confused.

“Woo woo… Master, Ben Ben can’t read. Please point out which one is the chips,” Ben Ben pleaded with Xu Fan.

Xu Fan slowly stretched out his hands and pointed to a puffy bag of chips on the table. Ben Ben immediately identified the target, gently grasped the bag with his mouth, and in a flash, he was back at Tongtong’s side. He shook his head as if to show off his accomplishment and handed the chips over to Tongtong.

“Daddy, Ben Ben is so great now, I want to keep him by my side always, okay?” Tongtong, holding the chips, munched away and coaxed Xu Fan.

“No problem, Ben Ben will always stay by your side from now on. But you can’t always bully him since he is your friend. Treat Ben Ben well, just like you would treat a friend, okay?” Xu Fan earnestly instructed Tongtong.

“Mhm mhm, Tongtong knows. Tongtong will treat Ben Ben as a friend,” Tongtong nodded at Xu Fan and affectionately stroked Ben Ben’s head.

“Ben Ben, the young master considers you a friend, but you must be aware of your own position and not forget the difference between superiors and inferiors, got it?” Xu Fan warned Ben Ben again.

“Ben Ben understands,” Ben Ben woofed twice and gently nuzzled Xu Fan with his body.
