1 Chapter 1: Another world

"Ouch!"

Lin Fan sat up too quickly and slammed his brain on the head of his bed.

As he looked around in a daze, he slowly realized that he was in a room that he had never seen before.

Gradually the pain faded and the memories slowly started to come into his mind.

To put it simple, this was another world, but strangely he had transmigrated into a body with the exact same name and the exact same age. Even their birthdays were the same.

He sorted through his memories until he figured out his new identity.

This world was a world of cultivation, but it was different from a normal world of cultivation since everyone relied on Cultivation Pets to raise their cultivation.

While he was lost deep in thought, there was a sudden knock on his door.

"Wake up you lazy bones or I'll make sure you'll never wake up again!"

There was this tender, but gruff voice that came from outside.

According to his memories, this should be the voice of the little sister of this body, Lin Yue.

Unlike him who was someone without any talent, Lin Yue was a talented Iron Level Three Beast Master with a Iron Level Four Cultivation Pet.

When they were still kids, she had always been shy and hid behind him, but now she had turned much colder. If he had to guess what the reason was, it was probably because she was ashamed of her weak big brother who wasn't even able to cultivate even now.

In the end, he still quickly changed and went downstairs for breakfast.

There he met his parents in this new world. His father in this world called Lin Ao was a gruff, but handsome looking uncle who was sitting at the table eating. His mother called Yue Qingrou in this world was still a beautiful looking young lady with a fine figure, but looked quite tired.

In this world, his dad had been a seeker and his mom had been a pet breeder. They used to run a pet shop together where his dad found pets for his mom to breed and sell. That was until his father took an arrow to the knee which gave him the limp that ended his career and his mother became ill, feeling the effects of illness even now.

Since they were both incapacitated, they could no longer run the shop, so his mother became a stay at home mom and his father had become a labourer, leaving the shop to Lin Fan to give him a stable career since he had no talent for cultivation at all.

Seeing him come down the stairs, his mother set a place at the table for him and brought out his breakfast before saying, "You're still sleeping even though it's this late, hurry up or you'll be late for work. Come and grab some food before you leave though."

His father just flashed him a grin and said, "It's a big day for you today, I heard that the city has been investing in pet shops lately and they're sending a batch of fresh pets for you."

Lin Fan searched his memories and remembered that the local government in their Silver City had announced lately that in order to deal with the rise in beast swarms, they would be supporting all businesses that promoted the growth of Beast Masters, which naturally included pet shops.

When he sat down, he could have sworn that he heard a camera click, but looking around, all he saw was his father eating while reading the newspaper and his little sister coldly glaring at him when he looked at her.

Shaking off the strange feeling he had, he quickly finished off his breakfast since he was curious about the pet shop he ran.

After finishing, he got up and shouted to his mom, "Mom, I'm all done. I'm heading to the pet shop to deal with the new shipment."

As he got up, his little sister also got up and specially went in front of him. When she passed by him, she even flipped her hair into his face before giving a cold snort. While he was a bit annoyed by this, he had to admit that it did smell good.

What he didn't know was that after he had left, his little sister went back to her room and the moment the door closed, the corners of her lips slowly raised.

She took out her phone and on it was a picture of Lin Fan as he was sitting down.

Lin Fan hadn't made a mistake that morning, there really was someone secretly taking photos of him!

Her smile kept growing wider as she said, "Now if only I could keep him here instead of him going to work each day."

On the walls all around her, there were thousands of pictures of Lin Fan posted there, taken over the years.

…

Not long after Lin Fan had set out, he arrived at his pet shop.

The pet shop wasn't that far away from their house, but it was a pet shop that was set up in the poor part of town, so there usually wasn't much business.

When he arrived, there was a truck and a person standing by it waiting in front of his store.

That person saw him come over and he waved to him, "Sir, are you the owner of this store?"

Lin Fan was surprised to see this person, but he quickly said, "Yes."

"Sir, I'm here to deliver the shipment from the government aid office." After saying this, that person reached out the watch on his hand, "If you could just confirm that you've received the shipment, I can be on my way."

The technology in this world was also quite advanced compared to his previous world. In this world, everything was stored on their personal ID Watch, which included their identification, their wallets, and their bank accounts.

Lin Fan didn't see any problem with this, so he tapped his watch against that man's outstretched watch.

After receiving confirmation, that man went to the back of his truck and took out three cages before saying, "Sir, this is the shipment that you are receiving today, please take care of them." After saying this, he began moving towards the truck to leave.

Lin Fan was stunned the moment he saw the three cages because inside them were a chicken, a dog, and a tiny lizard…

Before the delivery person could make their getaway, Lin Fan quickly grabbed him and asked, "Are you sure that this is the delivery you're supposed to make?"

Seeing Lin Fan question him, the delivery person's eyes filled with disdain, but he still seriously opened up a panel on his wrist watch to show Lin Fan.

"This is the order from the government. Since your pet shop is only a low level pet shop in this lowest grade neighbourhood, therefore you're only entitled to a first grade subsidy. This first grade subsidy is a total of three Iron Level Pets, this Fire Chicken, this Lightning Dog, and this Breeze Lizard, which have all been delivered." There was a trace of disdain in the delivery person's voice.

Lin Fan knew that there was no arguing with him since his shop was indeed quite shabby, so he just agreed with this and sent the delivery person on his way.

After taking the three cages into the shop, he finally got a good look at his own shop.

To describe it with one word, it would be shabby!

Everything in the store looked like it was quite worn out and there wasn't a single thing that seemed new in this store.

It seemed like everything in his new life was designed to make him feel depressed. He had come to a cultivation world, but he couldn't cultivate. He had a store, but it was completely run down. The only thing that was a positive was that he had a loving family...well other than his new little sister it seemed.

While he was wallowing in despair over his new reality, there was a voice that had suddenly rang in his head.

"A suitable host has been found. Currently importing system."

Lin Fan looked up in shock when he heard this. He quickly looked around while shouting, "Hello, is anyone there? What do you mean by host and system?"

There was no response to him for an entire minute before the same voice rang out again.

"Congratulations host, you have been selected by the system to become the best pet shop owner."

"System? Best pet shop owner?"

Lin Fan was confused by everything that was happening.

But soon he reacted and his eyes lit up since the part of him that came from earth finally caught up with this new reality.

System!

He was finally going to get his cheat!
