Having successfully killed the seven-star epic-quality Wind God Leopard and obtained its baby, Zhang Che and the others had achieved their objectives on this trip perfectly.
For such glorious results, they had only lost a mid-tier dark gold-quality subdued beast. Perhaps no one would ever believe them if they told stories about it.
However, this was the result of owning of a powerful healing-type subdued beast!
If it wasn’t for Zhang Che’s Unicorn, even if they managed to slay the Wind God Leopard in with their legendary beasts, they would have lost at least half of them!
Of course, even if they lost all of their subdued beasts, it would still be a good trade under normal circumstances.
According to market price, a five-star legend-quality beast card cost a million purple crystal points at the very least. However, a seven-star epic-quality beast card was definitely worth more than fifty million purple crystal points!
Beast cards at such a level and quality were definitely top-grade stuff to the whole world. Ordinary small to medium-sized clans might not even have one of them.
It could be said that after gaining the Wind God Leopard beast card, there would be no one in the younger generation of the Luo family with the qualifications to vie against Luo Wenjun for the position of family head when he reached Tier Seven.
To a clan, a seven-star epic-quality subdued beast wasn’t just a symbol of strength. With such a powerful subdued beast, Luo Wenjun could slaughter his way through the beast world in the future. The resources he would obtain simply couldn’t be measured.
Of course, doing so had certain risks, too!
If he wished to obtain powerful beast cards, he had to enter extremely deep into the beast world. If he was unlucky and came across a divine-quality exotic beast, it would be tragic.
“Brother Zhang, I, Luo Wenjun, will remember this! If any trouble comes up in the future, just give me a call. I’ll even go climb a mountain of swords and cross a sea of fire with you!”
Luo Wenjun’s words came from the bottom of his heart. Although no one knew if they would change in the future, this was his true feelings at the moment.
Zhang Che felt embarrassed inside. However, he still put on a natural smile and waved his hand, denying the compliment, “Nah, Brother Luo, I’m already very happy to get the baby of a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast. We’re brothers; let’s not speak such courteous words!”
-Mhm, if you keep showing this grateful look, I’ll feel very guilty inside…-
“Hahahaha…” Luo Wenjun laughed heartily. He nodded heavily and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this matter for now. Let us return to Tian Xing City immediately. I’ll reserve the whole Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant tonight. We’ll have a blast; no going home sober!”
The group immediately got on their flying beasts, flying back in the direction of the safety zone.
——
The journey back was just like when they came. Although they encountered quite a few decent exotic beasts, none of them were interested in hunting them, so those exotic beasts escaped disaster.
They sped along, and finally exited the beast world before the sky turned dark.
Just as they crossed the spatial gateway, the personal terminal on Zhang Che’s left wrist immediately vibrated.
He was surprised. Zhang Che hurriedly opened it, and saw that Liu Gang had sent him a message.
-Could it be that the Miyazaki Clan made a move again?-
Zhang Che’s expression changed. He immediately opened the message, and darkness quickly shrouded his face. His eyes narrowed slightly, filled with tremendous killing intent.
“What happened, Brother Zhang?” Luo Wenjun immediately asked when he saw Zhang Che’s expression seemed off.
Zhang Che shook his head lightly, saying, “It’s nothing much. Just some small matters happened at home, but my men have already settled it.”
Luo Wenjun’s eyes widened in displeasure, and he said loudly, “You’re not being brotherly enough! Just say it if you’re met with any trouble! In Tian Xing City, there are rarely any matters my Luo family can’t settle. If some fool has offended your family members, I’ll make sure they can’t continue living in Tian Xing City!”
Seeing Luo Wenjun had put it that way, Zhang Che found it inappropriate to hide things from him. He confessed directly, “Back when we were going to enter the secret plane, I set up a few Japanese people, and one of them turned out to be the descendant of the Japanese Miyazaki Clan. When we returned from the secret plane, they tried to take revenge on me, but I managed to resolve the matter. Unexpectedly, during my stay here at Tian Xing City, they tried sending people to make a move on my mother. Luckily my men discovered things in time and nothing serious happened.”
“Japanese?” Luo Wenjun’s eyes widened. Anger showed on his face. He grit his teeth, snarling, “Since when did the Japanese dare to come find trouble in Tian Xing City? Rest assured, Brother Zhang. Our Luo family hates the Japanese the most! I’ll tell my old man about this when I get back; I’ll surely help you dig out every single Japanese in Tian Xing City!”
Zhang Che quickly raised his hand and stopped him, saying, “No need for that, Big Brother Luo. That person had already been dealt with. It’s not good to escalate this any further.”
From Liu Gang’s message, it was clearly mentioned that the beastmaster was captured by them before he managed to take any action. However, they weren’t able to get any information out of him before he killed himself by rupturing a poisonous tooth. He was probably a suicide warrior, and it would probably be impossible to find out anything from him.
Moreover, even if they managed to get the names of a few people, what would that accomplish?
Methods that only served to cure the symptoms wouldn’t be able to unroot the problem once and for all.
Zhang Che was even starting to think that it was time to make a trip to Japan.
Seeing Zhang Che had no intentions of investigating further, Luo Wenjun could only nod and say, “Alright then. Do as you see fit. If there’s anything you need my help on, just say the word. I don’t dare to guarantee this anywhere else, but my Luo family does have some weight in Tian Xing City.”
“Alright, I’ll definitely tell you if there’s anything I need your help with,” Zhang Che thanked him, nodding.
Luo Wenjun sighed, “Looks like we can’t get ourselves drunk tonight. You head back and take care of this matter first, Brother Zhang. We’ll meet up again properly a few days from now.”
——
After returning to Tian Xing City, Zhang Che didn’t go to his great-aunt’s place immediately. Instead, he went to look for Liu Gang and the others, who were secretly protecting them, and listened to their story in detail.
This time, the assassin sent by the Miyazaki Clan didn’t attack using subdued beasts. They probably didn’t want to draw the attention of Hua Xia’s authorities. They only sent a suicide warrior to assassinate Sun Lan from afar with a sniper rifle.
Fortunately, Zhang Che was prepared for this, having brought the three veterans to protect her.
In the moment the suicide warrior revealed a hint of killing intent, Liu Gang and the others immediately sensed his existence. They quickly blocked off his line of fire and captured him alive afterwards.
Regrettably, when the assassin realized he couldn’t escape after some struggles, he ruptured the poisonous tooth hidden in his mouth resolutely, instantly killing himself to prevent being tortured for information.
“Troubles shouldn’t implicate family… they’re the devils, indeed. No matter which world it is, they’re so shameless! Miyazaki Clan, you just wait!”
Zhang Che narrowed his eyes, his killing intent surging.
If the Miyazaki Clan was only targeting Zhang Che, he could endure their revenge. After all, he was the one who did their descendant dirty first. Being taken revenge upon was only him reaping what he sowed.
However, they actually targeted his mother so shamelessly. This sent Zhang Che over the edge!
He felt that it was very necessary for him to make a trip to Japan and let them know what it was like to offend a powerful beastmaster who could disguise himself as he pleased!
