Biya Village could be considered a Ji Family village. However, not many people knew about that. As it was widely known, Biya Village was a separate small village caught in a struggle between two cities.
So, on the surface, Biya Village appeared to be an independent village with no one protecting or assisting it. It sounded quite pitiful. The real situation was easy to discern from a glance.
Biya Village wasn’t as bad as Su Bai had imagined. He asked, “When do the
Beasts co here?”
Ji Yan pondered and said, “They usually co to attack Biya Village at around noon, precisely at twelve o’clock.”
The dining conditions in Biya Village were also quite good, so there were more people around during al tis. Additionally, the Beasts here were quick in their actions, making it quite challenging for ordinary people to catch them.
“I’m not sure about the exact number of Beasts. However, the strongest one here has probably reached the Upper-8 Diamond level. At least, that’s the most powerful Beast I’ve seen.”
While listening to Ji Yan, Su Bai felt that sothing wasn’t quite right. But after thinking for a mont, he spoke up, “So, Mr. Ji, you can’t defeat that Upper-8 Diamond level Beast?”
Ji Yan smiled, showing no signs of embarrassnt, and said, “That’s right, I can’t defeat it. And recently, there has been so conflict within the Ji Family, which is preventing us from dealing with those Beasts.”
Su Bai felt there were a few flaws in Ji Yan’s words. But the key point was, he didn’t want to miss out on making money.
Furthermore, Su Bai was confident that he could take down these Beasts. Even getting Lu Le and the others to help wouldn’t be a problem.
“How about 800,000 bounty coins for to finish off the remaining Beasts?” Su Bai suggested. This ti, he was considering taking this job.
Ji Yan thought for a mont and said, “Since you’re so willing, how about I give you one million bounty coins? In the future, if there are more tasks, I’ll co to you.”
Su Bai raised an eyebrow and said, “It seems like the Ji Family has quite a number of these villages?”
Ji Yan was a smart person, so he naturally didn’t say anything further. If he were really seen through, it would only result in having more enemies, which wouldn’t be cost-effective for him.
“They’re just small-scale places and not many of them. But now, I need to go back. Should I give you a lift back first, or you’d like to stay here?”
Ji Fan was curious whether Su Bai wanted to stay here to observe the surroundings or return with him.
Without much thought, Su Bai replied directly, “Take back to the base.”
After returning to the base, Ji Yan seed to want to co in for a cup of tea, but he was declined by Su Bai, “Under these circumstances, there’s no need to co in. Moreover, you seem to be quite busy. If you don’t even have ti to deal with a Beast, you won’t be able to stand steady!”
Ji Yan smiled slightly. He believed that dealing with soone as intelligent as Su Bai wasn’t too easy. Every move, every gesture, and any minor action could reveal your intentions to the other party.
“Then I’ll take my leave. I am indeed quite busy.”
After saying that, Ji Yan returned to his car and drove back to the Ji Family residence.
On Su Bail s side, he turned and returned to the base. He glanced at Gong Haohao, who was engrossed in studying robots. He asked, “What are you researching?”
Hearing Su Bails voice, Gong Haohao trembled slightly and said, “I’m just trying to learn a bit about your alchemy. Boss, did you make this robot?”
Su Bai extended his index finger and pointed at the robot behind him. He said, “I made this one. The one in your hand was made by Yan Xuan. Both are pretty good, aren’t they?”
Gong Haohao was a bit dumbfounded, but he quickly stood up, trying to squeeze out a smile.
Murong Xue looked at Gong Haohao curiously. She asked, “Is there a problem?”
Gong Haohao shook his head repeatedly and said, “Nothing, I just want to learn from Boss’s robot.
The reason sounded quite noble to the point that even if Gong Haohao did have so ulterior motive, at least it wasn’t evident on the surface.
Su Bai squinted his eyes.
Murong Xue happened to co out at that mont.
“Is training over?” Su Bai asked.
Murong Xue nodded.
Su Bai pondered for a mont and said, “In that case, follow to Biya Village and see the results of your training during this period.” Murong Xue clicked her tongue and asked, “Sure, now?”
“No, later. Around ten-thirty. Just get ready and co out.”
After saying that, Su Bai directly entered a room where he made dicines and potions. It was his first attempt, so he didn’t have much experience. But it seed he had a knack for it. The dicines he had produced seed quite ordinary.
When it ca down to it, they were quite useful. They weren’t as good as Saint Crystals, but they were on par with ordinary Crystals and Beast-cores.
Su Bai took out the dicines and carefully examined them. When he felt that there were no issues, he put them away. In his opinion, these dicines could be given to Murong Xue’s Beast to eat. With a bit of luck, it could even enhance their strength.
Su Bai still didn’t know what kind of Beasts they were facing this ti, nor their specific strength. According to Ji Yan, those Beasts typically acted alone. Even if they were in a group, it would an great danger to them.
“There are things that the Beasts in Biya Village must attack or destroy.” Su Bai speculated. It was the root of Ji Yan’s headache. However, no one knew if those Beasts had actually destroyed those things, or even what those things were. “My task is relatively simple. After dealing with these Beasts, I’ll find out what the Beasts wanted to destroy.” Su Bai muttered.
Su Bai thought dealing with the Beasts was simple. The question was, what did the Beasts want to destroy. The fact that they wanted to destroy sothing indicated that their goal wasn’t to harm people. Instead, they were using the guise of harming people to continue their search for sothing they wanted.
Su Bai felt he was getting closer to the truth. However, unfortunately, there were no hints. The only answer was that he had to find it himself.
But Su Bai did notice two things. Firstly, Biya Village belonged to the Ji Family.
Secondly, Biya Village was a place that other cities couldn’t conquer. Additionally, Biya Village was constantly under attack.
This led Su Bai to ponder the question, ‘Were they targeting the Ji Family, or did they simply want to attack Biya Village?’
With that in mind, Su Bai found Ji Yan’s contact information and sent him a ssage, [1 million is a bit low. I want 1.5 million!]
Su Bai had increased the price by 500,000 bounty coins, a tactic known as raising the price on the spot. However, Ji Yan responded like a sucker, [Deal. I’ll give you 1.5 million for finding the item. If you deal the Beasts, I’ll give you another 500,000 bounty coins..]
