Traveling through the world of beasts: Beast husbands! Stop snatching!

Chapter 305 I will certainly live up to your expectations!

She selected three treasure chests with her mind, and a prompt appeared on the screen: [Merge the three treasure chests? Merging them will yield an SSS-grade treasure chest.]

Yuan Xiao chose "yes" without hesitation.

The three wooden treasure chests emitted a soft light, slowly approaching each other and merging together.

The light grew brighter and brighter until it blinded Yuan Xiao.

When she opened her eyes again, the three treasure chests were gone, replaced by a huge, glittering golden treasure chest.

This treasure chest was several times larger than the previous wooden chest. It was golden all over, with intricate and gorgeous patterns carved on it, and unknown gemstones inlaid on the edges, shining so brightly that it was almost blinding.

Yuan Xiao squinted and noticed a new line of small print at the bottom of the treasure chest. This time it read: "We will definitely live up to your expectations!"

"Quite the boast!" Yuan Xiao muttered, but her anticipation only grew stronger. "What could an SSS-level treasure be? A divine artifact? Superpowers? Or some other heaven-defying treasure?"

She rubbed her hands together, and with excitement, used her mind to open the treasure chest.

The lid of the treasure chest slowly opened, and an even more dazzling golden light poured out from within.

Yuan Xiao subconsciously closed her eyes, and when the golden light weakened slightly, she couldn't wait to look into the treasure chest.

She was stunned.

The treasure chest was empty except for a shriveled little seed lying in the very center.

This small, dark brown seed is not much bigger than a sesame seed. Its surface is wrinkled and inconspicuous, like a dried-up seed that has lost its vitality after being left out for a long time.

Yuan Xiao blinked, thinking she had misread it.

She looked the treasure chest inside and out again to make sure there was nothing else inside.

"That's it? That's it!"

She picked up the tiny seed in disbelief and examined it in her palm.

No matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary seed.

Yuan Xiao felt a little dizzy.

She worked hard for more than a month, from dawn to dusk, until she was so tired that she could barely lift her arms, and this is what she got in return?

Undeterred, she took the seeds and ran out of the room, asking each of her partners.

"Zehui, have you ever seen this kind of seed before?"

Zehui took it and examined it carefully, then shook his head: "Never seen it before. It looks... very ordinary."

"Aoshuang, what about you?"

Ao Shuang glanced at it: "It looks a bit like weed seeds."

"Yu Mo?"

Yu Mo held it in his hand and played with it for a moment, a look of doubt appearing in his red eyes: "Never seen one before. But since it's a seed, why don't we plant it and see?"

"Chi Miao?"

Chi Miao studied it for a long time, then shook his head as well.

Finally, Yuan Xiao found Yun Feng.

Yun Feng took the seeds, examined them for a while, then looked up at Yuan Xiao's expectant eyes: "You've been busy for so many days, you didn't just do this, did you?"

Yuan Xiao: ...

She returned to her room dejectedly, sat on the edge of the bed, and stared blankly at the shriveled seed in her palm.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't disappointed.

She thought an SSS-level treasure would be something extraordinary, but she never expected...

But after calming down and thinking about it, Yuan Xiao felt that something was wrong.

From Xiao Chu's missions to Fu Gui'er's missions, the rewards I received each time, whether skills or items, were very useful, even timely.

This is an SSS-level treasure obtained by combining three treasure chests; it shouldn't just be an ordinary weed seed.

“There must be something special about it…” Yuan Xiao murmured to herself, “I just haven’t discovered it yet.”

She remembered the words on the treasure chest: "I will definitely live up to your expectations."

The system wouldn't lie to her, right...?

Yuan Xiao took a deep breath and cheered herself up.

She found a small earthenware pot, filled it with soft soil, carefully buried the shriveled seed in it, and watered it a little.

"No matter what, let's plant you first."

Yuan Xiao said to the ceramic pot, "You have to live up to my expectations and not let me down after all the hard work I put into getting you out."

She placed the ceramic pot on the windowsill, where the sunlight was plentiful.

Over the next few days, Yuan Xiao would check on it every day, watering and loosening the soil, hoping to see any changes.

But the seed lay quietly in the soil, showing no sign of sprouting.

Yuan Xiao simply stopped watching and let things take their course.

Unexpectedly, after ignoring it for only one day, Yuan Xiao yawned as she woke up the next morning and unconsciously glanced at the windowsill.

In the small ceramic pot, a tender green sprout had appeared out of nowhere.

The sprouts were only the size of a grain of rice, but they stood out vividly against the brown soil.

"It really sprouted!" Yuan Xiao walked over quickly and took a closer look.

Although the tender buds were small, they gave people a feeling of vitality.

Yuan Xiao stared at it for a long time, and suddenly felt that the color of the bud tip seemed to be greener than that of ordinary plants, and the green was so green that it was almost translucent, like the finest jade.

"What kind of plant is this?" Yu Mo asked curiously, lying on the bed. "I've never seen this kind of bud before."

Yuan Xiao shook her head: "I don't know either. Maybe we'll be able to tell when it grows up a bit."

She reached out and gently touched the tender bud; it felt cool to the touch and carried a strange vitality.

For some reason, looking at this tiny sprout that had just broken through the soil, Yuan Xiao's unease, which had arisen because of the rumors, seemed to be soothed a little.

Perhaps this seed will bring unexpected surprises.

------------

That seed seemed to have an exceptionally strong vitality.

Since it sprouted, it has grown from a tender sprout into a seedling about half a foot tall in just one day.

A slender stem supports a few emerald green leaves, the edges of which are edged with a faint silver and gleam with a warm luster in the sunlight.

What's even more surprising is that when Yuan Xiao woke up from her afternoon nap the next day, a small flower had bloomed at the top of the seedling.

The flowers are pale yellow, only the size of a fingernail, with petals so thin they are almost transparent, as if woven from the lightest cloud fibers.

A few tiny specks of gold adorn the center of the flower, almost invisible unless you look closely.

"It's already blooming?"

Yuan Xiao squatted by the windowsill, staring intently at the little flower, feeling both surprised and delighted.

She reached out to touch it, but was afraid of breaking it, so her fingertips hovered in mid-air before finally pulling them back.

The little flower only bloomed for half a day before it withered.

The pale yellow petals fell silently onto the soil and quickly blended in, leaving no trace.

Yuan Xiao was feeling a little regretful when she noticed a small green bud that had appeared where the flower had fallen.

The green buds are no bigger than a grain of rice, tender and hidden among the leaves, and can hardly be seen unless you look closely.

"This is... the result?" Yuan Xiao leaned even closer.

The changes that followed were so rapid that she could hardly believe her eyes.

The green bud swelled at a visible speed, from a grain of rice to a soybean, and then to the size of a thumb.

The color gradually changed from light green to pale yellow, and then to a bright golden yellow.
