"Yes, the little beast is our friend now. All my friends have names. Like Big Girl, Second Girl, Little Tigerhead, they all have their own names!" Xiao Yan counted on her fingers seriously, "So the little beast should have its own name too."

"Isn\'t \'Little Beast\' fine?"

"\'Little Beast\' doesn\'t sound good, and many animals are called \'Little Beast.\' We need a special name." The little one shook her head.

Lu Qing wanted to say that names like Big Girl and Second Girl were also very common.

He thought for a moment and saw the Black Beast peeking into the kitchen from outside.

He asked, "Little one, do you also want a name?"

The Black Beast showed a thoughtful look in its eyes and then nodded.

"Brother, look, the little beast also wants its own name." Xiao Yan said happily.

"Since that\'s the case, let\'s give it a name."

Seeing that the Black Beast wanted a name, Lu Qing didn\'t refuse anymore.

But what name would be good?

Lu Qing thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea.

"How about \'Xiao Li\'?"

"Xiao Li?" Xiao Yan tilted her head.

The Black Beast also looked puzzled.

Obviously, both little ones didn\'t understand the meaning of the name.

"Yes, the little beast looks a lot like an animal called a lynx, so we call it Xiao Li. Also, the character \'Li\' belongs to the fire element. Look at its fur, doesn\'t it look like burning black flames?"

As Lu Qing explained, he took a piece of charcoal and wrote the character \'Li\' on it.

After this period of learning, he had basically mastered the writing of the world\'s characters.

Xiao Yan might not have understood, but the Black Beast, hearing Lu Qing\'s explanation, felt the name \'Xiao Li\' was very grand.

It stared at Lu Qing with shining eyes.

"Do you like this name?" Lu Qing saw its expression and understood immediately, "Then from now on, you will be called Xiao Li. As for the surname, you can choose to have it or not. If you want a surname, you can have ours and be called Lu Li or Lu Xiao Li."

"Great, little beast, you have a name now!" Xiao Yan was very happy, "You are Xiao Li, I am Xiao Yan, our names are very similar."

The Black Beast\'s eyes also sparkled with emotion.

With a name, the Black Beast\'s stay at the Lu family became even more natural.

It started playing around the house with Xiao Yan.

Of course, it was mainly Xiao Li teasing Xiao Yan. Otherwise, with its speed, even a hundred Xiao Yans wouldn\'t be able to catch it.

"By the way, Xiao Li, I have a question for you."

Seeing the Black Beast playing happily, Lu Qing suddenly remembered something.

Xiao Li stopped and looked at Lu Qing.

"Yesterday, was someone chasing you in the mountains, trying to catch you?"

Lu Qing recalled the conversation he overheard from the Wei family\'s guards last night.

They said their young master fell into the valley while chasing a strange black beast in the mountains.

He had suspected at the time that the beast might be Xiao Li, and now was the perfect opportunity to ask.

Xiao Li tilted its head and thought, then nodded.

"Were there six or seven people chasing you, one of them about my age?"

Xiao Li nodded again.

Lu Qing broke into a sweat. It really was that guy.

His expression turned serious. "Xiao Li, stay in the house for now, don\'t go outside. If someone comes, find a place to hide. Don\'t let anyone see you, understand?"

Xiao Li nodded.

It didn\'t like seeing others anyway.

Lu Qing turned to his sister and warned, "Xiao Yan, outside, you can\'t mention Xiao Li being at our house. Not even to your friends. Otherwise, Xiao Li might get caught and you won\'t see it again, understand?"

"Xiao Yan knows! I won\'t tell anyone about Xiao Li!" The little one answered seriously, her face tense at the thought of possibly never seeing Xiao Li again.

She had just become friends with Xiao Li and didn\'t want to lose it.

Seeing Xiao Yan\'s promise, Lu Qing relaxed a bit.

He trusted his sister\'s discretion. After all, she had never mentioned the family\'s silver to anyone, just as he had instructed.

It wasn\'t that Lu Qing was overly cautious.

Although Young Master Wei had fallen into the valley himself, it was still related to Xiao Li.

The young master had almost died. Even if he recovered, he would need many precious medicines to regain his health.

After such a disaster, who could say he wouldn\'t blame Xiao Li?

If he saw Xiao Li, he might insist on capturing it out of revenge.

Lu Qing remembered that guy\'s personality wasn\'t very good.

Although Xiao Li was a spiritual beast and comparable to the Internal Organs Realm in his assessment, Lu Qing didn\'t think it could outfight the Wei family\'s guards.

Human battle tactics were too diverse and cunning, not something a simple beast could understand.

Not to mention, the Wei family\'s chief steward was also a strong martial artist in the Internal Organs Realm.

Thinking about it, Xiao Li should hide for now and avoid the Wei family.

Lu Qing even wanted Xiao Li to hide deep in the mountains until the Wei family left.

But seeing Xiao Li stay under the eaves for a night for a fish, he knew it had already claimed the area as its territory.

Asking it to leave wouldn\'t be easy.

If it couldn\'t resist the temptation of fish and snuck back, the risk of exposure would be even greater.

Better to let it hide at home and wait out this period.

In the following days, Lu Qing learned that Xiao Li had no parents nearby.

It was the only Black Night Spirit Lynx in the mountains.

It didn\'t even know how it ended up in the mountains, only that it had lived there since it gained consciousness, but in another area.

It had only recently wandered to the mountains behind Jiuli Village.

Knowing this, Lu Qing was relieved. He didn\'t have to worry about two mature Black Night Spirit Lynxes showing up to seek justice.

Thus, Xiao Li officially moved into Lu Qing\'s house.

Since Young Master Wei\'s condition had stabilized, Lu Qing didn\'t need to stay at the Halfway House all the time.

His life returned to its previous rhythm.

Every morning, he greeted his master at the Halfway House, studied medicine in the morning, and had the rest of the time to himself.

He could fish, grow vegetables, and practice martial arts.

For Xiao Li, these days were undoubtedly happy.

It got the freshest fish Lu Qing caught every day, a treat beyond compare.

After eating, Xiao Yan would massage and scratch it.

This life was much more comfortable than its days in the mountains.

Xiao Li didn\'t want to leave, preferring to stay at home forever.

Days passed, and Lu Qing\'s worry about Xiao Li being discovered never came true.

Young Master Wei\'s condition improved visibly under the old doctor\'s care.

Finally, on the seventh day after Young Master Wei woke up, he could get out of bed and walk.

This meant he could withstand the journey and was ready to return to the Wei family.
