Seeing Zhang Che was unharmed, Huang Juyun finally settled down.
Not only was this kid unhurt, he even obtained the cub of a high-tier exotic beast that was about to open his eyes. His luck was truly incredible!
-Although, this kid treats my girl really well. He didn’t even stop to think for a moment and gave such a great pet to my girl. He really is a man worth entrusting your life to!-
“Alright, Zhen Manting’s matter aside, you being set up by the Japanese is all your own fault.”
Pausing, Huang Juyun looked at Zhang Che with a slight faulting gaze. This kid was still too young, not thinking about the consequences of his actions. Now, trouble was finding its way back to him!
Hearing Huang Juyun mentioning this, Zhang Che couldn’t help but smile in embarrassment.
Indeed, he didn’t think through his actions at that time. He only wanted to set up those people; who would have thought they were so weak that the epic-quality exotic beast would wipe them out?
However, Zhang Che didn’t regret it a tiny bit.
Putting aside the history of his previous life, on Mercury, Hua Xia was also invaded by the Japanese over a hundred years ago. Who could forget about that?
Seeing the embarrassed look on Zhang Che’s face, Huang Juyun didn’t harp on the matter. He changed the topic, saying, “Right, I haven’t had the chance to ask you. What happened in the secret plane this time? Why did everyone return all of a sudden?”
Zhang Che shook his head, answering, “I don’t know. It just happened all of a sudden. The entire secret plane crumbled, and I was sent back to Mercury for some unknown reason. I don’t know what exactly happened in there.”
Huang Juyun nodded silently. His expression was somewhat solemn as he said, “It probably suffered some attack. Hopefully it’s not related to the mysterious energy behind the demonic flower you mentioned. If not, I’m afraid our world won’t find peace.”
Zhang Che thought to himself, -This time, it really didn’t concern the mysterious energy behind the demonic flower. The entire secret plane shattered because of that big boss in my spiritual sea. It absorbed the foundation energy of the secret world.-
The two stopped talking about this matter tacitly.
Zhang Che suddenly took off the bracelet on his wrist. After wiping away his spiritual imprint, he gave it to Huang Juyun and said, “Uncle Huang, this is what I got from the secret plane. Take a look.”
Back in the secret plane, Zhang Che transferred everything in the big black man’s Meso Worm over to the bracelet. Even the pile of stellar crystals was in there.
To him, those things weren’t very valuable, and he lacked a channel to convert them into money.
Moreover, even if he gave them all to Huang Juyun, as his future father-in-law, would he have the cheek to take them all? He would leave at least half for Zhang Che!
Not only that, Zhang Che’s greatest gains in the secret plane weren’t these worldly possessions…
The rainbow crystal had a sumptuous meal, although it was still unknown what new abilities it had gained. The scarlet and white swords weren’t ordinary, either, not to mention Zhang Che formed the golden vortex in his spiritual sea by some stroke of luck. The two swords were his greatest trumps right now.
Originally, Zhang Che planned on giving the white sword to Miss Tienan, but he realized later on that the golden vortex in his spiritual sea was necessary to display the swords’ full potential. He could only put a hold on this matter.
Huang Juyun didn’t reject him. He directly took the beast card from Zhang Che and triggered spiritual resonance with it, then branded his spiritual imprint on it and took a look inside.
In the moment he looked into the dimension inside the bracelet, Huang Juyun nearly jumped up from fright. He looked at Zhang Che with his eyes wide, asking in disbelief, “Why would you have so much? Y-yo-you, you didn’t rob other beastmasters in there, did you?”
The bracelet had around fifty cubic meters worth of space, and it was almost filled to the brim with all kinds of rare minerals, especially the mountain of stellar crystals. They were dazzling, blurring Huang Juyun’s sight.
During those few days, even if Zhang Che did nothing but dig for minerals, it was impossible for him to dig out this amount of minerals!
Zhang Che chuckled, explaining, “I didn’t go around robbing others, although there was a group of people who tried to rob me. In the end, I turned the tables and robbed them instead. Only the pile of stellar crystals was found by me. The rest belonged to that group of people.”
Zhang Che spoke nonchalantly, but Huang Juyun was very clear on how dangerous it was inside.
How could a group of people who managed to rob this many resources be looked down on?
From the looks of it, this future son-in-law of his was hiding many aces up his sleeves!
He didn’t mind, however. Who wouldn’t have some secrets of their own?
Moments later, he thought of those beastmasters that went around robbing people. They were surely an atrocious bunch. How could they possibly hand over their resources willingly? Surely they would rather die and sacrifice their beast cards than hand over their fortune…
When Huang Juyun asked about this, Zhang Che didn’t try to hide from him. With a wave of his hand, a large, peculiar butterfly appeared in the study.
“Uncle Huang, this subdued beast of mine has a skill. When non-high-tier beastmasters have their guards down, they can be easily controlled. They will do whatever I tell them during a five minute window. They won’t hesitate even if I tell them to kill themselves.”
Huang Juyun’s eyes went wide. This time, he was really astonished.
“There’s such a queer exotic beast? Boy, you keep surprising uncle!”
Huang Juyun immediately thought of the spy that was still being interrogated. He stood up and said to Zhang Che, “Come, we’ll go find that spy. With this subdued beast of yours, it’ll be a piece of cake to find out which Japanese faction is targeting you.”
———-
The two of them left during the night. After over an hour of driving, they arrived at a military base outside of Bei Du City.
After passing through three guarded entrances, the two finally arrived at the area where felons were being held at.
Once the Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterfly appeared, the spy who had not revealed a single thing, despite being tortured to the brink of death by the interrogator, immediately spilled out everything he knew.
Only Zhang Che and Huang Juyun were involved in the entire process. Seeing the spy revealing everything they wanted to know under their questioning, Huang Juyun was both surprised and ecstatic.
This subdued beast was simply the best anti-spy equipment!
For a brief moment, Huang Juyun’s heart was moved.
If he had such a subdued beast, there would be no need to spend any effort investigating suspicious personnel in the department. He could directly order the subdued beast to use its Enchant skill and ask them openly, easily weeding out the spies.
Of course, this subdued beast wasn’t omnipotent. It was unable to affect high-tier beastmasters.
However, would anyone with the strength to become a high-tier beastmaster be an unknown figure? How could they possibly be willing to be spies? Even if such people existed, they would be extremely rare.
———-
During their journey back, Zhang Che seemed to see through Huang Juyun’s thoughts. He wiped away his spiritual imprint on the Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterfly card with a smile and handed it to Huang Juyun, saying, “Uncle Huang, I watched your interrogation process earlier. I realized that it’s really not easy to pry open the mouth of a good spy. I hope this subdued beast will be useful to you.”
Huang Juyun was overjoyed inside. However, he didn’t have the face to take his own junior’s belonging. He tried his hardest to suppress his excitement and rejected, “Forget it, it’s very useful for you…”
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Che said with a smile, “Actually, I have a spare.”
Huang Juyun was thoroughly speechless. He could swear that he had never seen such a lucky guy!
-Looks like our Lanlan has a really good eye for people, picking an ideal man at first sight!-
