Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 738 - 773: A Familiar Person... Through Time and Space?

Chapter 738 -773: A Familiar Person… Through Time and Space?

“So, Zhao Ye, in the end you didn’t form a contract?”

Lan Xiaoyu poured Zhao Ye a cup of wine, the corners of her mouth curling into a smile.

“No.”

Zhao Ye swirled his cup of wine, looking resentfully at the three in front of him — Bai Qi.

“From the start to the end of the fight, these three didn’t even take a few minutes. If I had formed a contract, could I still contend with these three?”

“You can’t think like that, Zhao Ye. A beast’s combat power after forming a contract is much stronger than before, and you know that. Just like that Shadowless Snake, it’s quite powerful.”

Bai Wuji patted Zhao Ye’s shoulder, trying to comfort him.

“Don’t mention the Shadowless Snake anymore, the more I think about it, the less I want to form a contract.”

Zhao Ye couldn’t bear it and rolled his eyes. To give him more time to consider, they had even brought back these three Emperor Beasts alive.

Leaving the other two aside, the Shadowless Snake started to shiver even now at the sight of Bai Qi. It would be useless even if he formed a contract with it.

“Actually, there’s really no need to rush. There are many Emperor Beasts in the Heavy Shadow Forest, you can make your choice slowly.”

Xiao Huang lifted his cup and took a sip, then turned to Bai Qi, “Bai Qi, why did you deliberately bring back those cubs?”

“Plans? The best option is of course to find a suitable Beast Master to form a contract with them. They carry Emperor bloodlines after all, and will become very powerful if nurtured properly.”

Bai Qi paused, and then added, “And if they happened to be eaten by other beasts or grow to become new Emperor Beasts, it wouldn’t do us any harm.”

“That’s indeed true.”

Xiao Huang nodded, “However, compared to cubs, most Beast Masters would probably find it easier to accept adult beasts. You should be prepared that you might get stuck with these three cubs.”

Bai Qi remained silent upon hearing this. People of this era truly didn’t have the habit of raising pets from a young age, thus forcibly contracting all on sight.

Initially, Bai Qi thought these records were somewhat exaggerated, but he had to accept the fact when he personally witnessed a Beast Master tame the Flame Cloud Tiger they had brought back using this method.

“Pets raised from a young age indeed coordinate better with Beast Masters than those contracted midway. Unfortunately, most people don’t have the time and resources.”

A rare expression of regret crossed Bai Wuji’s face, but it was quickly replaced by his usual smug grin.

“By the way, Xiao Huang, your family is so wealthy. Why don’t you take in all three cubs that Bai Qi brought back?”

“I’m not interested in canine creatures, sorry.”

Xiao Huang swiftly rejected Bai Wuji’s suggestion, then added after a pause, “But there might be someone interested in these cubs.”

“You mean him? It could be possible.”

Bai Wuji’s eyebrows twitched, as if he had thought of something.

“I also think so, after all that man is famously lavish.”

Upon hearing that, Zhao Ye perked up and seemed quite confident as well.

“Who are you guys talking about?”

…

“You mean this place?”

Bai Qi looked at the opulent mansion in front of him, comparable to a palace, he suddenly understood why Bai Wuji and the others had so much confidence in this deal.

“If we’re talking about who in Huangsong City is most likely to buy these Emperor-Class Cubs, it’s definitely this place.”

Bai Wuji revealed a grin.

“Do you know why, despite being so close to the Heavy Shadow Forest, Huangsong City is still the most powerful city in the Flame Emperor Country? Because of the owner of this place.”

“That powerful? Could this place be the residence of a legend?”

Bai Qi’s eyebrows twitched. A legend could indeed ensure prosperity, but judging from Bai Wuji’s tones, it wasn’t about strength?

“Of course not, the one living here isn’t a legend, he isn’t even a Beast Master.”

Bai Wuji shook his head, slapping the obsidian gate beside him, “He is just absurdly rich, hmm, if my memory is correct, he owns more than half of the industries in Huangsong City.”

Understood, financial ability is invincible across the world.

Bai Qi grasped the meaning instantly. In any era, resources are most important. As long as there are enough resources, even a pig can be pampered into a legend.

The owner here is probably one of those types.

“HAHA!!! Brother Xiao, why do you have time to visit me today? Do you have any business that would benefit old Zhang again?”

After a brief wait, Bai Qi heard a hearty voice from the courtyard. He looked up and saw a paunchy middle-aged man wearing a gold nightrobe running toward the gate.

What a character, he oozes wealth!

Bai Qi silently appraised him. Meanwhile, Xiao Huang greeted the man with the standard nobility courtesy, “Uncle Zhang, long time no see.”

“Ah, don’t call me uncle, it makes us sound distant. Just call me old Zhang.”

The middle-aged man seemed a bit displeased. He then turned to the three men next to him, “Bai Wuji, Zhao Ye, I knew you three always move together, huh? I don’t think I’ve met this young man yet.”

“Hello, my name is Bai Qi.”

Bai Qi stepped forward and introduced himself briefly.

“So it’s you, little brother Bai Qi. Come, come, come, take a seat in the house.”

The middle-aged man was quite straightforward, inviting Bai Qi and his company in directly, without any air of a wealthy man, while the butler and attendants following him were very particular about their conduct.

“Big Brother Bai, this rich Zhang is quite… bold~”

Bai Qi quietly moved to Bai Wuji’s side and said.

“You’ll get used to it, his character is as simple and straightforward as his name.”

Bai Wuji grinned, following along with long strides, seemingly not treating himself as a guest.

“Oh?”

Bai Qi perked up at his words and couldn’t help but ask.

“The first tycoon in Huangsong City, who is also known as Zhang, has half of the city, this is the man.”

“Alright, it’s indeed quite simple and straightforward.”

Bai Qi gave a thumbs up and followed everyone else into the mansion.

The house was as its name suggested, Zhang Fugui’s mansion was as simple and straightforward as his name, a perfect example of a mansion with no human touch. Bai Qi even saw some metal materials that were treasured by mechanics in the future, but here, they could only be used as corner scraps.

“When I go back, I must build the base like this. Don’t worry about whether it’s practical or not, it’s all about the wow factor!”

Bai Qi had quietly planned his targets after returning, while Zhang Fugui also happened to stop at this moment, leading everyone to sit down in the living room, signaled servants to prepare refreshments, then went straight to the point.

“Can my few younger brothers tell me the purpose of your visit? What kind of business are you looking for me to do?”

Zhang Fugui lit a cigar for himself and asked.

“This is the situation, my friend here caught three cubs of the Mo Zhu Wolf King in the Heavy Shadow Forest. But as uncle Zhang would know, ordinary people just… couldn’t afford to keep emperor-level cubs, so…”

Xiao Huang went straight to the point, and Bai Qi timely took out the three cubs from the mysterious realm and placed them in front of him.

“Emperor class cubs? Hahaha! Xiao Huang, you really know me well, how did you know I was planning to buy these cubs!”

Hearing Xiao Huang’s words, a crazy smile appeared on Zhang Fugui’s face. Without even looking, he waved his hand and said, “I’ll take these three cubs, you can name your price!”

Bai Qi: “… Big Brother Bai, is this boss Zhang always this bold…”

“Pretty much, but today, he was a bit more… straightforward.”

Bai Wuji shrugged his shoulders, apparently not understanding Zhang Fugui’s behavior today either.

In the end, Xiao Huang couldn’t help himself and asked, “Uncle Zhang, is it alright if I ask the reason?”

Originally, Xiao Huang had recommended Zhang Fugui simply because the man was without human touch, and he would often buy excellent pet beasts for beast masters of some families.

But judging from the current situation, it seemed there was some other reason?

“The point is, my worthless son recently got to know a teacher, he finally has an interest in pets, he asked me to buy some cubs for him. Now, you guys brought them to me even before I could start buying.”

Zhang Fugui’s mood was obviously good, the smile on his face was unceasing, but a surprised look appeared on the faces of Bai Wuji and the others.

Xiao Huang considered his words, then said, “Uncle Zhang, if I recall correctly, your young master … hasn’t he not awakened his talent yet?”

“That’s right, that boy inherited nothing from me except for my useless physique, he still hasn’t awakened his talent.”

A look of disappointment appeared on Zhang Fugui’s face, but he swiftly changed back into a smile, “But a while ago, I unexpectedly got to know a strange man. He also didn’t have talents, but he could control beasts. I let that boy be his disciple.”

“A man with no talent who can control beasts?”

Upon hearing Zhang Fugui’s words, everyone’s faces changed.

But Xiao Huang and the others wore bitter smiles, while Bai Qi had a peculiar look.

Why does this operation sound familiar?

Was there already a method to control pets without contracts in this era?

Wait, at this time point…

Could this strange man be the Martial Emperor!

Bai Qi stroked his chin, his heart pounding.

The human emperor checking-in plan seemed about to be realized!

“Uncle Zhang, could you introduce us to this… stranger?”

Xiao Huang was cold as ice. He had a good relationship with Zhang Fugui, and even though the other was usually flamboyant, he couldn’t just stand by and let Zhang Fugui be fooled and taken advantage of.

“Of course not, I’ll take these three cubs over to show them.”

Zhang Fugui didn’t suspect a thing, signaling his subordinates to carry the three wolf cubs along and headed towards the backyard.

Compared to the gorgeous front yard, the backyard’s layout was much more thoughtful, under the gorgeous decorations, a large amount of security facilities were hidden, as well as beasts.

It made sense, such a wealthy family would be foolish if they didn’t have enough power to protect themselves.

But Bai Qi didn’t have the mind to study just how extravagant Zhang Fugui’s resources were at this time, his attention was completely focused on the young man who was carefully tending to a beast in the backyard.

“Zhuge Chen?! How did you end up here?!”
