Admittedly, Zhang Che wasn’t very strong compared to the huge Miyazaki Clan.
However, ambushing and whatnot was what he was best at!
He didn’t even need to employ firearms. The arrows shot from the Fallen Star bow were extremely powerful. Unless the target was a high-tier beastmaster or was prepared for it, no one would be able to walk away unharmed.
-All I did was set up a descendant of yours, didn’t I?
-Just come at me if you have the ability to. I have no opinion on that.
-But you shamelessly targeting my defenseless mother like that is too much!-
Zhang Che laughed coldly inside. -We’ll see how many more talented descendants your Miyazaki Clan has. I’ll kill them slowly, one by one. Let’s see if you’ll feel the pain!
-Of course, if it’s the kind of genius whose beastmaster tier has already reached high-tier, I’ll just let them off. This Fisherman Zhang isn’t that ruthless of a person…-

After expressing his thanks to Liu Gang and the others again, Zhang Che returned to his great-aunt’s place, making it just in time for dinner.
“You’re back, Xiaoche. Come on, we’re just about to eat!” Sun Shaoying’s family welcomed him warmly.
Putting aside the fact that he was Sun Shaoying’s only great-nephew, with his strength and network, which relative would dare to slight someone like him?
Although Sun Shaoying and her husband were too embarrassed to ask Zhang Che for help, if Xi Wenshan’s business were to fail in the future, they’d throw their pride out of the window and ask this great-nephew to help him out.
“Ah, what a cute little kitty, Big Brother Zhang Che. Is it for Xin’er?” Lin Xin’er’s round eyes immediately twinkled brightly when she saw the greenish-black baby exotic beast in Zhang Che’s arms, jumping towards him.
Cold sweat formed on Zhang Che’s forehead. This fellow was his lifeblood; how could he give it to her as a pet?
“Don’t mess around, Xin’er. That is a present your Big Brother Zhang Che is going to gift to a big sister. You can’t go snatching it.”
Fortunately, Xi Muyun came over in time and pulled Lin Xin’er away.
Seeing how Lin Xin’er looked like she was going to cry, Zhang Che couldn’t help but feel his heart soften. He said, “Does Xin’er like these little animals? Then big brother will go catch one for you as a pet tomorrow, alright?”
Zhang Che thought to himself, -With my current strength, it shouldn’t be too difficult to go catch a baby exotic beast with unopened eyes in the beast world.-
Speaking of which, he really hadn’t given them any presents since coming to visit his great-aunt.
It was better not to give them worldly possessions like money. They were his seniors; it seemed to be in bad taste if he just gave them money directly.
If he chose to gift them beast cards, however, only his uncle Xi Wenshan was a beastmaster in their family, and only a Tier Three one at that, while the others were only ordinary people. Moreover, that uncle of his wasn’t someone who was willing to risk himself in the beast world. If thoughts of trying to make it big in the beast world were born in his head because Zhang Che gave him a powerful beast card, wouldn’t he be harming the man instead?
Since this little cousin loved little animals, he could use this opportunity to gift her a decent baby exotic beast as a pet. It would be a great help to her when it grew up.
“Really? Then let’s pinky swear!” Lin Xin’er blinked her round eyes a few times, extending her tender pinky towards Zhang Che for the second time.
“Okay, we’ll pinky swear!”

After a blissful dinner together, the two families went to take a walk in the park near the neighborhood. The sky had turned fully dark by then.
At night, Zhang Che lay on his bed in the guest room, looking at the bunched-up baby exotic beast. Its eyes had yet to open even now, giving Zhang Che a headache.
It’s been over half a day. Gods knew what this little fellow liked to eat. It better not starve to death, or Zhang Che would have no one to cry to.
When he thought of this little fellow’s attributes, Zhang Che couldn’t help but feel ecstatic, thinking that this trip wasn’t a wasted one!

========
Those were the full attributes of the slightly ugly baby beast.
Zhang Che could only say that the attributes were through the roof!
When he first saw the Umbra Wind God Leopard’s attributes, Zhang Che nearly roared out in laughter at the skies. Luckily he managed to forcibly suppress his laughter, but he just couldn’t stay calm afterwards.
Heck, this was a beast that could reach nine-star super divine-quality when matured! Would it perhaps be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder against that divine bird?
Zhang Che had no answer. However, even if it couldn’t reach that divine bird’s terrifying level, it shouldn’t be far off, right?
Super Divine-quality. As its name suggested, that was a tier higher than divine-quality.
Zhang Che was really curious as to who this little fellow’s father was like, to pass down such great genes. It should be a divine-quality beast at the very least, right?
However, from the looks of it, the little fellow’s mother, which was the Wind God Leopard Zhang Che slew, seemed to have failed in capturing that unknown powerful exotic beast’s heart. Otherwise, why would it have run to that mountain range alone to give birth?
Could it be a fight within the harem? Thinking of that, Zhang Che almost felt disgusted by his own thoughts.
No matter what, however, this had worked in his favor, allowing him to gain such a powerful baby.
By the way, Zhang Che’s hypothesis from before was finally proven to be true by the Umbra Wind God Leopard’s attributes. Exotic beasts of the highest grade had evolved to the top of the line, and they no longer had the Potential attribute.
However, all of this didn’t matter. Zhang Che didn’t know how much time and resources would be needed to raise this little fellow into adulthood. It went without saying that the process for such a pet to truly grow had to be incredibly difficult.
After all, he wasn’t in the beast world, and he wasn’t the little fellow’s biological parents. Zhang Che had no way of raising it in the most perfect way.
Moreover, for these baby exotic beasts, milk produced by their mothers should be the best food for them during their infancy, allowing them to grow rapidly.
It was ultimately useless, however. The Wind God Leopard was already slain by Zhang Che. Where would he find milk for the baby from?
As for ordinary cow’s milk, goat’s milk, or whatever, it went without saying that it was useless. With just that pathetic amount of nutrients, it would be not bad if it didn’t starve the baby exotic beast to death.
It looked like Zhang Che had to start worrying about food for this little fellow from tomorrow onwards.
He let out a deep sigh. Zhang Che didn’t know if he could raise this little thing to adulthood even after spending all his purple crystal points.
It had to be mentioned that things which could feed high-grade pets wouldn’t be cheap. The stronger the baby exotic beast was, the more expensive it was to feed them.
It could be said that the baby of a powerful exotic beast truly wasn’t something ordinary people, or even ordinary beastmasters, could afford to raise. Unless they didn’t mind not raising the baby exotic beast to the best of their potential, they could probably feed them anything…
“Right, I wonder if the rainbow crystal’s energy works?”
The moment he thought of that, Zhang Che’s eyes lit up.
