“But, hmm…”

Ye Xuan stretched out his hand and gestured above Lil Wan’s head.

Before upgrading Lil Wan, he had searched for images of Ancient Wood Elves on the Internet.

Logically speaking, Lil Wan should have grown to about the same size as an Ancient Wood Elf after she had evolved into one.

Ancient Wood Elves were very similar to humans in both size and appearance. The only difference was that elves had long, pointy ears and a slightly dark-green complexion.

However, after Lil Wan became an Ancient Wood Elf, only her abilities had changed.

Her appearance hadn’t changed at all.

Disregarding her size, in terms of human beauty standards, her face was perfect, and even her ears were exactly the same as a human’s.

The rest of her body was no different.

“But I guess it’s great that you didn’t assume the appearance of an Ancient Wood Elf. I don’t think I could get used to that kind of green color you would have.”

Ye Xuan placed Lil Wan on his shoulder.

“Why am I still the same?”

As Lil Wan sat on Ye Xuan’s shoulder, she looked out the window and mumbled to herself.

She definitely didn’t want her skin to become green, or for her ears to grow pointy.

But at the same time, she wanted to be the size of a human being.

In that way, she could do many things with Ye Xuan.

“What are you muttering?”

Lil Wan’s voice was very soft, and Ye Xuan could only vaguely hear her.

“Nothing.”

She didn’t want Ye Xuan to know what she was thinking.

That would be so embarrassing! (͡σ̴̶̷̤.͡σ̴̶̷̤)ෆ⃛

Like a hungry kitten who’d been caught, Lil Wan quickly stood up on Ye Xuan’s shoulders. “Didn’t you say that you wanted to find a suitable second beast? Now that you’re free, go ahead and pick one. I also have to adapt to my own abilities.”

After she said this, she hopped into the air and fluttered out of Ye Xuan’s room like a bee.

Although she had evolved into an Ancient Wood Elf, she still retained her original Psychic Power ability.

Besides, even this ability of hers had seemingly become stronger.

“Why did you run away? Before I choose my second beast, I wanna tell you about what I plan to do next to upgrade you further.”

Ye Xuan shook his head.

Then, he focused his consciousness on the attribute panel.

[Ancient Wood Elf (Lil Wan)

“Divine Wood Elf…”

After reading the dozens of evolution paths the Beast Editor provided him, Ye Xuan ultimately fixed his eyes on the evolution path of the Divine Wood Elf.

The evolution path of the Divine Wood Elf was the most in line with his expectations.

Ye Xuan directly ruled out the other paths, such as Demon Wood Elf, Blood Wood Elf, and so on.

Leaving the abilities aside…

Just the names alone didn’t match Lil Wan, who was small and adorable.

Not to mention that Ye Xuan would literally cry if Lil Wan’s appearance became extremely horrifying after she evolved into a Demon Wood Elf or Blood Wood Elf.

He was someone who believed in the power of appearance!

Besides, he still had a Mythic-Level Beast Taming Aptitude, and he could have many beasts in the future. So it wasn’t necessary for him to make Lil Wan overly powerful.

He would get other beasts to fight on the frontline and whatnot.

Lil Wan just had to take care of the logistics with him.

Looking at the information the Beast Editor provided, the Divine Wood Elf fitted this criterion very well.
