Ti passed quickly. Two days later...
The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon had recovered to his peak condition. After the two swords devoured the tal-attributed sword, the scarlet and white sword light they turned into had achieved great rits for Zhang Che.
Although the scarlet and white sword’s attacking range had shrunk to nearly a third of what it was, its attacking speed, had increased by a huge margin, truly reaching the level of a sword of light. No exotic beasts could escape it.
In addition, the sword’s attacking power had risen greatly. Its efficiency at hunting exotic beasts was even more impressive.
During those two days, Zhang Che travelled around on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon. Other than summoning the Earthen Rock Demon to take control of the area, Zhang Che couldn’t even be bothered to summon out his other subdued beasts or pets. He directed the scarlet and white sword himself, slaying every exotic beast they ca across.
As of now, Zhang Che had accumulated several hundred mid-tier beast cards in his spatial storage. It was the reward he got for sweeping all of the mid-tier exotic beasts in the surrounding few hundred kiloters.
It went without saying that Premium House wouldn’t have to worry about the lack of stock!
During this period of ti, Zhang Che had gotten close to the territory of those powerful exotic beasts on multiple occasions. However, with the map his father-in-law had prepared for him, he managed to avoid them in ti. He didn’t have to worry about encountering any danger. It was another reason why he had gained such huge rewards.
“Indeed, information is the greatest resource one can have!” This wasn’t the first ti Zhang Che had lanted the exact sa thing. Without Huang Juyun’s help, he would have needed more than twice the ti to advance to Tier Seven beastmaster. At the very least, he would need half a year to achieve that!
Zhang Che wasn’t the only one who had gained rewards. The frisky monkey had also finally risen to dark gold-quality.

Halo: Spiritual Force Sensitivity
Potential: B Rank
========
After breaking through to dark gold-quality, the changes to the frisky monkey’s attributes were huge!
First, his senses could now detect spiritual fruits and herbs up to fifteen hundred ters away, and when activating his skill, he could expand his sensory range to ten thousand ters!
That range was extrely terrifying. After activation, any spiritual herbs within three hundred and fourteen square kiloters would be sensed by the Gluttony Monkey!
Three hundred and fourteen square kiloters! That was about four tis the size of the town Zhang Che lived in his previous life!
Judging by the density of spiritual herbs growing deep in the beast worlds, perhaps he might not find mid-grade or higher spiritual herbs with every activation of the skill, but he would definitely find so ordinary spiritual herbs.
After the frisky monkey advanced to dark gold-quality, he also gained a Halo called Spiritual Force Sensitivity.
Zhang Che tried it out. Under the blessing of the frisky monkey’s Halo, he gained sharp awareness towards spiritual force, too. However, the range was too small, only allowing him to sense the fluctuations for about a hundred ters around him.
For ordinary people, gaining such an ability would truly be a huge blessing. However, to Zhang Che, it simply wasn’t any help.
Let alone a hundred ters, so what if he could sense a thousand ters around him?
That was still within the range of the frisky monkey’s senses. It was useless to Zhang Che!
“It’d be countless tis better if his Halo was changed into sothing else; whatever will do!” Although Zhang Che was very dissatisfied with this result, what could he do? He could only accept it passively..
During the past two days, the nearby mid-tier exotic beasts, as well as the sparse high-tier exotic beasts, were mostly killed by Zhang Che. Even if there were a few stragglers here and there, they were no longer worth his ti.
“It’s ti to head back. After being pursued by the Zhen family all the way here, if I don’t go back to settle this trouble, who knows what other tricks they’ll pull the next ti?”
It was getting dark. Zhang Che didn’t set off right away. Instead, he found a large mountain and had the Purple Crystal Tortoise dig out a cave for him. Zhang Che hid in the cave together with the frisky monkey and enjoyed a al of roasted exotic beast at, then went to sleep, awaiting the dawn of the next day.
——-
The next morning, Zhang Che packed his belongings and mounted the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, letting him find their way back. Half a day later, they were back at the safety zone.
It could be said that this trip to the beast world was fraught with troubles.
Not only were they pursued by a high-tier master from the Zhen family... [The Zhen family yelled silently, -It’s really not us who sent him! This is simply the worst case of injustice!- ...] they also encountered a powerful exotic beast who was possibly at super divine-quality!
Although Zhang Che guessed that the green bird was much weaker than that golden divine bird, it was much more powerful than ordinary exotic beasts regardless!
After all, the high-tier beastmaster who ca to assassinate him couldn’t even retaliate against the green bird’s attack, and was killed instantly. It could only be described as extrely terrifying!
—
After exiting the safety zone, Zhang Che boarded Dijiang-hao. After flying for about three hours, Zhang Che returned to Bei Du once more.
Zhang Che wasn’t in a hurry to get ho after arriving at Bei Du. Instead, he went to the Huang family’s ancestral ho.
During this period of ti, the military and the governnt had been discussing their strategies for the future regarding the invasion of demonic creatures. As such, Huang Juyun didn’t return to Qian Wei City. He remained in Bei Du, attending eting after eting.
When Zhang Che arrived at the Huang family’s ancestral house, Huang Juyun was waiting for him at ho.
Although Huang Juyun knew that Zhang Che surely had sothing to ask him about if he ca to him, he wasn’t in a hurry to talk about that, and instead asked about Zhang Che’s trip. “How is it? Did you get a good harvest?”
“Uncle Huang, these maps for the beast worlds have really helped a great deal!” Zhang Che grew unusually excited when this topic was brought up. He smiled brightly, saying, “I went to two places over these last few days. It was as indicated on the maps; the density of mid-tier exotic beasts was far higher than other places, and there were even mid- to low-quality high-tier exotic beasts! The harvest was plentiful!
“If I keep up at this pace, I’ll only need two to three months at most to successfully advance to Tier Seven beastmaster!”
When he heard Zhang Che, Huang Juyun’s face froze for a mont.
Two to three months and Zhang Che could advance to a high-tier beastmaster?
Even though Huang Juyun knew those places were filled with mid-tier exotic beasts, that speed still gave him a scare.
However, Huang Juyun imdiately recalled that Zhang Che wasn’t an ordinary mid-tier beastmaster. Not only did he have an epic-quality subdued beast, he also possessed an extrely rare spiritual sword fragnt. His attacking power wasn’t inferior to most high-tier beastmasters at all.
With such great strength, breaking through to Tier Seven beastmaster in about three months didn’t seem like such a strange matter anymore.
“Alright. When you advance to Tier Seven, your strength will surely increase greatly. You won’t have to fear even if the demon world invades us again and sends stronger creatures this ti!” Huang Juyun praised, clapping his hands.
“Oh, right, Uncle Huang, the Zhen family set their eyes on again on my trip to the beast world. They sent a high-tier beastmaster to pursue .”
Huang Juyun’s face changed. He imdiately said angrily, “What? Does the Zhen family really not want to preserve the slightest bit of face they still have?
“After the arena deathmatch, no matter how deep the grudges, both sides have to put it to rest! This is the rule set by both the governnt administrative office and the military! I can’t believe the Zhen family actually dares to act so brazenly!
“Since they’re like that, then don’t bla us for acting immorally!”
-Are we going to start a war with the Zhen family, just like that?- Zhang Che felt that this was sowhat inappropriate. Let alone the fact that this matter had deep implications, more importantly, he had no evidence. If the Huang family started a war with them, they would beco the target of public criticism.
After hearing Zhang Che’s concern, a layer of dark clouds shrouded Huang Juyun’s head. He nodded slowly, “This will indeed be extrely troubleso. Since that high-tier beastmaster is already dead and is left with no corpse in the beast world, we won’t be able to produce any evidence, indeed.
“Right, do you rember that beastmaster’s facial features?”
Zhang Che slowly recalled. He described that middle-aged man’s appearance, and even pointed out the fact that he had a spiritual sword fragnt.
After hearing this, Huang Juyun unexpectedly revealed a look of doubt. He said in confusion, “Hmm? The Zhen family doesn’t seem to have such a high-tier beastmaster. Also, from what I know, although they do have a spiritual sword fragnt, it isn’t tal-attributed.
“Perhaps, this is their clan’s hidden strength?
“Right, wait a mont. I’ll go find soone who can draw a quick sketch. Describe that beastmaster’s appearance once more later, and have him draw his face.”
No matter if it was a high-tier beastmaster or a spiritual sword fragnt, both of those were the high-end combat strengths of a clan. Usually other factions would have so information about those things.
Arriving soon after at Huang Juyun’s orders, a soldier who excelled in sketching listened to Zhang Che’s descriptions and drew the high-tier beastmaster’s face through a long-distance video call.
Zhang Che was impressed when he saw the end result.
Just by listening to his description and making so changes afterwards, the appearance of the high-tier beastmaster who pursued him was reproduced almost perfectly on paper.
“This is...” Huang Juyun, who had also saw the sketch, suddenly sat up straight, his eyes wide, and let out a low exclamation.
“Xiaoche, is this man really dead, and has no corpse remaining?”
-As expected, father-in-law really knows this person!-
Zhang Che nodded firmly, saying, “That’s right. This guy’s strength was really decent. If it wasn’t because of his overwhelming aura attracting a powerful exotic beast nearby, it would’ve been really difficult for to escape from him!”
“He’s not from the Zhen family,” Huang Juyun sighed, his expression complicated.
“He’s not the Zhen family’s man? Then...” Zhang Che was really surprised.
-Since he’s not soone from the Zhen family, could it be that I have offended so other large faction in Hua Xia? That is troubling.-
“He’s the younger brother of the Japanese Miyazaki Clan’s patriarch, Miyazaki Musashi! Among those in my generation, he is an exceptional talent!
“Years ago, I t him before in a secret plane. That’s why I recognized him. At that ti, he was already a Tier Five beastmaster, possessing really powerful subdued beasts.
“I didn’t expect him to die by your hands.”
Hearing this, Zhang Che’s eyes finally shot wide open, nearly popping out from their sockets.
-He’s actually from the freaking Miyazaki Clan!
-That makes sense! My grudge with the Miyazaki Clan runs deep. It’s no wonder they sent out such a powerful beastmaster to assassinate .-
Thinking back, this high-tier beastmaster by the na of Miyazaki Musashi was indeed powerful. If Zhang Che didn’t have the Myriad Transformation Lizard’s exotic beast transformation attribute, there was no way he could have used a powerful exotic beast to entrap him.
Under those circumstances, he couldn’t run, either. He probably would have died in the end!
However, with how things had gone, the Miyazaki Clan would surely feel the pain when they learned the final results. Not only did they lose a powerful high-tier beastmaster, they also lost a rare spiritual sword fragnt!
Most importantly, that high-tier beastmaster wasn’t an ordinary clan mber, but the younger brother of the Miyazaki Clan’s patriarch! He was an extrely important mber of the clan!
-Hmm, I hope they won’t cry!-
