Looking at the dragon in front of him, trying its best to be ingratiating, Lin Ye couldn't help but chuckle. Who would have thought that a dragon could show such a human-like expression on its face?

If it weren't for the fact that the dragon was so huge, Lin Ye would have suspected that this creature would lie down and lick his shoes.

Lin Ye opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as the words reached his lips, he realized something.

This dragon had been with him for several years, yet it seemed it still didn't have a name.

To be honest, if this got out, Lin Ye didn't know how many Professionals in the Beast Taming System would mock him behind his back.

For the average Professional, even taming an Elite Level combat pet requires good food and drink to serve it, fearing neglect might lead to the pet defecting.

When it comes to more advanced combat pets, they're almost treated as complete individuals, with corresponding perks directly comparable to Professionals of the same level.

Because at this level, the combat power often exceeds that of Professionals of the same level, even the master may not be much stronger than a pet of this level.

So they can already be considered an equal status partner.

But when it comes to a dragon of this level, that's another situation entirely…

Because this Boss Level power has completely surpassed the control abilities of ordinary Professionals. Encountering such a combat pet is like encountering an ancestral deity.

A guild of considerable size might be needed to afford the upkeep of such a pet; how could ordinary people have that capability?

One could say, this level of combat pet is the foundation of a great power.

If nurtured properly, and reaching a high enough level, it could even directly elevate a guild to a special level!

This kind of strategic-level combat pet is an absolute treasure no matter where it is!

Yet here with Lin Ye, the dragon couldn't even get a name, really rendering one speechless.

That's clearly not right. Lin Ye scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and then said, "From now on, your title will be 'Abyss Ripper', understand?"

Abyss Ripper, of course, because Lin Ye hopes one day to pierce through the Abyss, returning the Human World to peace.

So, he gave his combat pet this title.

Hearing this, the Four-Colored Giant Dragon's eyes sparked, evidently very satisfied with the title, nudging its head towards Lin Ye slightly.

Patting away the dragon's big head, Lin Ye said, "A title is just a title, but to me, I'll just call you Xiaosi!"

Abyss Ripper is fierce, sure, but ultimately it's just a title; there's no need to keep saying it, it's just too much hassle.

So Lin Ye chose a compromise; in front of outsiders, you can be the mighty Four-Colored Giant Dragon Abyss Ripper, but to me, you're just the combat pet Xiaosi.

For this somewhat rough nickname, Xiaosi did not object, only lifting its body and nodding vigorously.

What opinion could he have?

Opposition was out of the question; Lin Ye already considering his reputation outside made him very grateful. Privately, however Lin Ye wanted to call him, that's naturally up to convenience.

"Alright, I'm going to sleep for a bit, you keep guarding the door!"

After saying this, Lin Ye's figure flickered and disappeared on the spot, leaving Xiaosi behind with his huge dragon eyes wide open.

Lin Ye just disappeared right in front of him!

After so many years of absence, the master's power evidently advanced terrifyingly.

Even though Lin Ye is still Level 35…

But the Lin Ye now is obviously not the same Level 35 Lin Ye from more than three years ago.

When he was still the Swamp Giant Dragon, this feeling wasn't apparent, but after evolving into the Four-Colored Giant Dragon, Xiaosi faintly felt Lin Ye's true terror.

Even though he didn't know why Lin Ye gave him such a terrifying feeling, it was definitively a good thing for Xiaosi.

After all, with a powerful master, as a combat pet, he stands with pride!

Moreover, Lin Ye treats his subordinates well. That heart that helped him evolve into the Four-Colored Giant Dragon was truly priceless.

But Lin Ye used it on him directly, which indicated unconditional trust.

After all, defection among combat pets isn't uncommon; indeed, the more powerful and intelligent the pet, the higher the likelihood of defection.

So, many times, to prevent defection, professionals deliberately restrain the power of their pets, not allowing them to expand excessively outside their control range.

But Lin Ye didn't seem to consider this at all. After more than three years of absence, upon return, he helped Xiaosi improve to the current extent!

From this, it's clear Lin Ye truly cares for his subordinates!

Of course, it's also because he has absolute confidence in his strength being formidable, which is why he so freely empowers his pet.

However, this is also Lin Ye's capital.

Thinking of these, Xiaosi could not help but reverently turn back, looking toward the direction of the mansion.

At this time, after more than three years of darkness, the master's room once again lit up.

Lin Ye walked into the house, finding everything still clean and tidy, just like when he left a few years ago, completely unchanged.

There wasn't even a trace of age to be seen.

This was all thanks to those residents from Macondo Town; they regularly came to the house to tidy it up.

So even after all these years, the house remained as new.

After a bath, Lin Ye comfortably lay down on the bed, finally able to sleep peacefully.

...

"That guy, gone for over three years, what exactly was he doing in the Alternate Space?"

In a tavern in Shan City, a slightly stubbled, elegantly tempered middle-aged man was savoring a glass of amber cocktail.

His half-squinted eyes were looking at a window of the tavern, which happened to face Lin Ye's estate.

Gongsun was puzzled. Lin Ye obviously had the ability to return, but stubbornly stayed in the Alternate Space for three years before coming back to the Human World…

This, Gongsun couldn't figure out no matter how much he racked his brains.

"Tsk… Whatever, whatever, just enjoy the show. This bunch of fools has failed several times, yet they remain obstinate..." Gongsun murmured, downing his glass of wine.

"But, managing to get those fools to team up, those people in the Holy Core really have had their time, hehe…"

Gongsun's eyes sparkled; though he thought those guys were foolish, watching fools do foolish things wasn't without its entertainment, was it?
