After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tame - Chapter 64
Chapter 64: Chapter 63 Healing
“Little girl, do you know where Building 7 is?”
In the residential area, Chen Lingya was about to head home when the question came from behind.
The inquirer was a mature woman who appeared to be around thirty-five.
She wore light, sophisticated makeup on her face, and her hair was coiled up behind her head, secured by a white jade hairpin. The marks of time only seemed to enhance her charm.
“Building 7 is over there. I’ll take you,” Chen Lingya said.
It was conveniently on the way to her own home in Building 7.
The woman turned to look at Chi Yu beside Chen Lingya and couldn’t help but praise, “Is this your Beast Taming creature? Such a vigorous little girl.”
Chen Lingya nodded politely. “Thank you.”
Praises for Chi Yu were plentiful; oftentimes, walking on the street or shopping, she would hear similar compliments.
Entering the elevator, Chen Lingya pressed for the fifth floor.
The woman was also about to press a button but, seeing the number Chen Lingya had pressed, she retracted her reaching hand and gave Chen Lingya an extra glance.
After leaving the elevator, Chen Lingya turned left towards apartment 5-4.
The sound of footsteps continued to follow her.
Chen Lingya’s brow furrowed slightly.
She stopped in front of her home, and the woman behind her halted at the same time.
Chen Lingya narrowed her eyes, “May I ask who you’re looking for?”
“I’m looking for Chen Xing.”
Chen Lingya puzzled; someone looking for her brother?
She took another look at the woman.
The woman smiled and said, “I was entrusted by the senior Qiu Shangqing to come and treat his father for Black Marrow Disease.”
Having said that, the woman suddenly looked towards the window in the corridor. The hairpin coiled in her hair abruptly transformed into a white streak, shooting out and piercing an ethereal eye that had appeared from thin air by the distant window!
Her rich, black hair cascaded down like a waterfall as the woman reached out and the white streak made a loop in the air before falling back into her palm.
Only then did Chen Lingya get a clear view of the white streak’s true form—a white snake as thick as chopsticks, with crimson eyes like two exquisite rubies.
The woman gathered her long hair single-handedly with a gentle twist and a roll, then reinserted the white snake back into her hair, turning it back into the white jade hairpin it had been at their first meeting.
“All taken care of, I’ve dealt with a little prying eye. It seems quite a few creatures have their sights set on your household,” the woman hinted.
Chen Lingya looked towards the end of the corridor, her gaze turning cold as she guessed the identity of the creature behind the eye.
But today’s focus was something else.
Chen Lingya looked again at the woman, “Are you… an Advanced Beast Tamer in the Transcendence Stage?”
“Barely qualify as a Super Rank Beast Tamer,” the woman replied with a smile, patting Chen Lingya on the head. “So cute, seeing you reminds me of my daughter.”
Chen Lingya’s face darkened.
“That irritated look makes you resemble her even more.” The woman covered her mouth, giggling. “Teenage girls really do share similarities.”
At that moment, several kilometers away in the top floor penthouse of a tall building.
A black crow suddenly squawked loudly.
Flapping its wings, it flew from its perch to the back of the couch and opened its beak to emit a hoarse human-like voice, ‘I was entrusted by senior Qiu Shangqing to come and treat his father for Black Marrow Disease.’
It had flawlessly repeated the words it had heard earlier.
Wan Hailong, who was usually indifferent to praise and scorn, finally furrowed his brows upon hearing the name Qiu Shangqing.
“How did it come to involve Qiu Shangqing,” Wan Hailong murmured.
“Chen Xing… is Chen Lingya’s younger brother, isn’t he? It seems I have overlooked a rough diamond. A family with two talents, how interesting.”
…
When Chen Xing got home, he saw his sister sitting on a stool to the side, while their mother and father were seated on the couch, and an unfamiliar woman he had never seen before was sitting on another couch.
Chen Xing thought to himself that this must be the friend invited by Old Master Qiu.
“The matter senior Qiu entrusted me with is now settled. Your father’s illness is no longer a serious concern, and with further rest and care, he will recover fully,” the woman declared.
The woman gently stroked the long-eared rabbit in her embrace.
“Thank you, senior!”
The woman smiled faintly, “My name is Han Yuning, just call me Sister Han.”
“Thank you, Sister Han!”
Chen Xing looked at the calm big white rabbit in Sister Han’s arms.

“Let’s go, walk with me downstairs.” Han Yuning stood up, and Chen Xing followed behind her.
Han Yuning said, “Actually, the difficulty in treating Black Marrow Disease lies in requiring a Beast Tamer in the Transcendence Realm, who also must have mastered at least Advanced Healing Skills, and the Proficiency Level of these skills must also be perfect.”
“These three requirements together make it so that there aren’t many Beast Tamers who can treat Black Marrow Disease. In Great Xia, with so many people, there are only a few beasts specialized in healing, and they usually have other things to do.”
“Even in hospitals, it’s not certain that you can make an appointment with a Beast Tamer at any time, even if you offer a billion, because for a Beast Tamer in the Transcendence Stage, there are far too many ways to make money.”
“At a certain stage, the role of worldly money isn’t so significant. The basic approach is to barter or use a higher-level currency.”
“If the Proficiency Level of Advanced Healing Skills isn’t perfect, even if the disease is temporarily cured, it will quickly relapse, and the condition will worsen.”
Chen Xing expressed his gratitude, “Thank you.”
Although his sister said that the principal would arrange for someone to treat their father after his college entrance exams, if it was indeed possible to treat him earlier, why wait until after the exams?
Chen Xing knew his sister had secrets, but just like he also had secrets, he wouldn’t ask if she didn’t wish to tell.
Yet a year was too long; the sooner his father’s illness could be cured, the better.
“After your father’s illness is cured, it’s normal for a lotus mark to remain on his chest. That’s the mark left after treating Black Marrow Disease.
It won’t affect the body. The first group of people who contracted Black Marrow Disease are basically living out their later years peacefully.
People have investigated; in the Exotic Region, those treated for Black Marrow Disease have lived for over a thousand years without any problems. Your father is not a Beast Tamer, and his lifespan is that of an ordinary person, so actually, it’s even less of an issue… sorry.”
Chen Xing nodded in understanding.
“Which university do you plan to attend after you go to college?”
Chen Xing shook his head, “I haven’t decided yet.”
He was only a high school freshman now and hadn’t seriously considered his options for the college entrance exams.
Han Yuning suggested, “If you want to apply for college, you can consider Jiuzhou University. I am a Water Element Beast Tamer; you could choose me as a mentor.”
Chen Xing was surprised; he hadn’t expected this senior to make such an offer.
“You’re someone highly regarded by Old Master Qiu, so you must have decent talent. Meeting like this is fate; why not recruit you in advance?” Han Yuning said with a light smile at Chen Xing’s surprise.
“Don’t be so surprised; it’s quite normal. Many mentors recruit students ahead of time. It just happens less often here in Jincheng. In those frontline major cities, many promising students are reserved by universities in advance. Plus, you’re at the stage of building your foundation. If you could receive training ahead of time, it would be a win-win for both you and me.”
Chen Xing pondered; it wasn’t that he had other thoughts.
If he was to truly choose a mentor, resources and background were the most important things for him, as these were what he currently lacked.
In this world, it’s not enough to be solely capable of fighting; one also needs a background.
As for teaching techniques and such… due to the presence of the professional tree, they weren’t as important.
“Let me introduce myself. My surname is Han, from the Nine Dragons Han Family.” Han Yuning crossed her arms in front of her chest, making her imposing bust more pronounced.
“I graduated from Jiuzhou University, where I was ranked first on the Jiuzhou Dragon and Phoenix List for two consecutive terms. After graduation, the exploration team I formed has opened up more than seven Secret Realms, and I also participated in the battle to conquer the Exotic Region’s Giant City. I was a member of Great Xia’s first Three Thousand Elites Project. Now I’m back at Jiuzhou University, ready to be a dedicated teacher.”
