The next day, Zhang Che rushed to Bei Du Airport early in the morning and set off in Dijiang-hao once more. He brought the elental queen with him.
This left both Huang Tielan and the elental queen dejected.
Miss Tienan lost a great assistant. She would have to go through complicated steps using the machines to refine so ingredients when concocting cultivation fluids from now on. She couldn’t help but feel regret again. It would have been great if she had gone with Zhang Che’s suggestion and kept the elental queen at her side.
On the other hand, the elental queen was sad that she could no longer watch television. She ca to understand that human technology were unusable after entering the beast worlds. Even though she still had her personal terminal with her, it beca sothing akin to a monk’s comb; useless!
Of course, she knew that her master was in urgent need of raising his strength, and they’d be staying in the beast worlds for a long period of ti in the foreseeable future.
This left her in even more pain. Without television to watch, the elental queen felt like her life had turned dull gray.
Zhang Che didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after understanding this. She was simply like a young internet-addicted girl, the kind who was deeply poisoned!
“Don’t worry. When your master advances to high-tier beastmaster, we’ll surely return and rest for a good period of ti. You can watch all you want at that ti,” Zhang Che promised the elental queen.
Of course, even if he didn’t make such a promise, as a pet that was fully under his control, the elental queen would execute all his orders unconditionally, even if he told her to kill herself.
However, she was a pet with human intelligence, after all. He still had to take care of her feelings.

Dijiang-hao took off from Bei Du Airport, speeding off to the south.
It was worth ntioning that the Hua Xia Airline Company’s business was developing rapidly.
At Bei Du Airport, Zhang Che saw three four-man sky shuttles, their models similar to Dijiang-hao. He could see that the materials used to build their bodies weren’t as luxurious, however, only mixing in a small amount of purple-gold crystal and other rare minerals.
“That’s normal. There aren’t many who are rich and willing to spend like ,” Zhang Che sighed contentedly, feeling like the other plane owners were all paupers, and he was the richest.
Strictly speaking, in terms of personal wealth, there might not be anyone in this world who was richer than Zhang Che.
Of course, the legendary high-tier beastmasters with divine-quality subdued beast might be able to rival Zhang Che’s wealth, or even surpass him.
After all, a divine-quality subdued beast alone was an invaluable treasure. It couldn’t be bought no matter how much wealth one had.
However, there shouldn’t be many beastmasters of such caliber. Across all of rcury, there shouldn’t be more than a hundred beastmasters with divine-quality subdued beasts.
-I wonder when will I have a divine-quality subdued beast of my own...!- Zhang Che fantasized.
Although the Umbra Wind God Leopard had the potential to mature into a nine-star super divine-quality beast, he was only at five-star dark gold-quality at the mont. Heavens knew how long it would take for him to fully mature into his final form...
It would probably be impossible to grow to that stage without a few years’ ti just by relying on absorbing the rainbow crystal’s energy. He wouldn’t be able to make it before the next beast swarm. That was, unless Zhang Che could hunt large amounts of high-tier high-quality dark or wind-attributed exotic beasts to feed the Umbra Wind God Leopard.
Even so, such matters depended entirely on luck. Although Zhang Che knew that his luck had always been very good, it was impossible to be good to that extent!
While in Dijiang-hao, Zhang Che began looking fantasizing about the future, while the elental queen used whatever ti she had left to watch her favorite dramas and movies.
After entering the beast world, she wouldn’t get to watch television for a few days at the very least. To soone like her, who had just gotten addicted to television, it was sothing unbearable.
Zhang Che cast a glance at the elental queen, thinking to himself, -Perhaps I have to redirect her interests. I wonder if she likes reading?
-If I can use reading materials like novels to redirect her attention, she wouldn’t have no entertainnt even if we are in the beast worlds...-
The more Zhang Che thought about this, the more he felt this would work.
Regrettably, Zhang Che had never taken a proper look at the novels in this world. He didn’t know if the web novel business was as big as it was on Earth.
It was unlikely. It had been decades since the beast worlds invaded rcury. Humanity was facing a crisis that threatened their survivability. Who in the right mind would go write web novels?
-Could it be that I will have to write down the novels I’ve read?-
Although Zhang Che’s ntal strength had improved trendously, especially since the golden vortex had appeared in his spiritual sea, and leading to his mory greatly improving (among other things), it would be a huge undertaking to reproduce the web novels he had read in his past life.
-It’s impossible! I didn’t transmigrate with The Great Writer [System]. How can I reproduce the things I’ve read?-¹
Shaking his head, Zhang Che quickly rejected that idea.

Night gradually fell. John Black tidied his appearance, showing both excitent and anxiety on his face.
After a period of observation, his good buddy Helicis told him that the lord emissary of the Origin Cult had agreed to assess him. He would beco a mber of the Origin Cult once he passed the assessnt.
From what he had heard, the lord emissary was a powerful high-tier beastmaster. Not only that, he could borrow the divine strength of the Origin God and had once slain a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast by himself.
Also, the Origin Cult would bestow powerful beast cards to their loyal mbers generously, greatly increasing their strength.
In the past, his good buddy Helicis only had a four-star silver-quality beast card. After passing the assessnt and joining the Origin Cult, he was given a four-star dark gold-quality beast card, instantly becoming a few tis stronger.
Just as John’s imagination was roaming, his buddy Helicis hurried him, urging, “John, are you ready? We have to leave. There are many outer mbers being assessed tonight. We mustn’t be late, or the lord emissary will think you aren’t sincere enough towards the Origin God, and not approve you joining the cult.”
“Ah, I’m ready, I’m ready. Let’s go.”
Both John and Helicis were from common households. Although they had beco mid-tier beastmasters, due to their talent and their families, they were only at the bottom of the rung among mid-tier beastmasters.
Now that there was a chance to change his fate, John would naturally grab hold of it.
The two left. They first went by car to a chaotic slum in northwest Xinxiang City. Afterwards, under Helisis’ guidance, they walked into an alley.
Why would the Origin Cult choose to set up their base in this slum? Although John felt curious and suspicious about it, he didn’t think much about it when he thought of how much help the cult gave to its mbers, as well as his good buddy Helisis’ personal experience.
It was likely that the Origin Cult setting their base here reflected their sincerity in helping the poor and the commoner beastmasters.
After all, the powerful beastmasters in the richer areas wouldn’t care if the common beastmasters had powerful subdued beasts, or whether they could survive better in the beast worlds.
—
After traveling close to half an hour along the complicated alleys, John finally arrived at the Origin Cult’s building under Helisis’ guidance.
A large number of mid-tier beastmasters were already gathered here. None of them were highly gifted, and all were from poor backgrounds. Everyone was brought here by their respective guides, standing quietly inside a large warehouse, waiting for the arrival of the lord emissary.
Two rows of beastmasters with powerful auras stood solemnly around the warehouse. Although they didn’t summon out their respective subdued beasts, John could tell that those people were definitely high-tier beastmasters.
At the appointed ti, a large door inside the warehouse suddenly opened. A tall young man shrouded in a layer of mysterious radiance walked out of the door.
Just as the blond young man walked out, people could sense the powerful aura on him, which was several tis greater than the two rows of guards.
Not only that, for so unknown reason, John felt a faint impulse to worship this lord emissary when he first saw him.
According to the rumors, the lord emissary had received the teachings of the Origin God and had a trace of the Origin God’s powers in him. It was probably one of the reasons he seed incredibly powerful.
In that instant, John decided to beco the most loyal believer of the Origin Cult, no matter if he passed the assessnt or not!
He stared at the blond lord emissary, not realizing that his eyes were covered in a layer of strange light. It was exactly this layer of strange light that influenced his mind without him realizing it.
The blond emissary seed to have noticed John’s gaze, sweeping a gaze filled with warmth and a mysterious energy over, settling on him. This left John feeling as if he was fully exposed in front of the lord emissary, with no secrets to speak of.
John was incredibly shocked. -Is this Lord Emissary’s true strength? Indeed, it’s even stronger than what Helisis had described!
-Looks like I made the right choice. If I can join the Origin Cult and receive high quality beast cards bestowed by Lord Emissary, my life will change completely!-
“I, the ssenger of the great Origin God, Giggs Bliss, hereby welco everyone...”
His gaze swept across everyone present. A blurry, unnoticeable strange energy enveloped everyone. The blond youth’s voice seed to originate from the ancient void, directly ringing from the bottom of everyone’s hearts.
For an instant, everyone present had a hint of blurry yet fanatical gaze in their eyes.
At that mont, even if the blond youth told them to go die, most of them would draw their weapons without hesitation and slice them across their own necks.
Giggs Bliss continued speaking. The light in everyone’s eyes gradually beca more serene...
