Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 128: If the Duke Does Not Abandon Me I Wish to Acknowledge Him as My Foster Father in the Morning Court


Vice President Liu was furious. Damn it! An exceptional Breeder had finally emerged from Jianghai Province, and at this critical juncture, I didn't even know?! After all this effort, he was almost lost to others. Fortunately, I still have a reliable disciple. Otherwise, if I were relying on Zhao Deguang, Qin Erlong, and that good-for-nothing bunch, I wouldn't have even known if Su Ping had been snatched away by Breeders from other provinces!

Vice President Liu's squinty eyes, this time, were undisguised in their icy glare at the other Breeders present, especially Ding Yan. Although both their ranks were Advanced Level, their statuses were worlds apart. Ding Yan was only proficient with the Flame Wolf and had barely reached that level a few years ago, while Liu Fuhai was a veteran of many years. Previously, Liu Fuhai had also tried to win Ding Yan over, explaining the current situation of the Jianghai Province Breeders Association, but Ding Yan had shown no signs of changing his mind. However, as the Senior Breeder leading the new Junior Breeders from Huaiyang Province on this visit, Liu Fuhai had been quite polite to Ding Yan previously. But now, things were completely different.

Liu Fuhai's icy gaze didn't seem to intimidate Ding Yan, who simply responded with a slight smile. However, nothing more was said. After all, their positions were clear, and poaching talented Breeders from other provinces was something both sides engaged in. Although being caught red-handed was somewhat embarrassing, it wasn't cause for a public meltdown like a shrew.

Vice President Liu looked at Su Ping, who had already stood up. His dark old face, with an expression change more astonishing than even the little Paperman Qian Yi's renowned face-changing act, blossomed into an incredibly radiant smile. "Su Ping, you kid! Such a big deal, and you kept it from me!"

Although his tone was reproachful, Vice President Liu's beaming old face showed not a trace of actual blame. If being kept in the dark always meant such good news, I'd wish for it to happen more often!

Su Ping quickly said, "I really didn't mean to hide it from you. I've been so busy with so many things, I just haven't made it over to the Breeders Association..."

Qin Erlong chuckled, "I can vouch for that. You haven't called Xiao Ping for over a month!"

Vice President Liu shot him a glare. Damn it, now I finally understand what those text messages from Zhao Deguang and this Qin Erlong—those two old bastards—were all about! So they knew all along and were just bullying me, Old Liu, for not knowing? And I supposedly didn't call Su Ping to ask? Was it that I didn't want to? No, I didn't dare to! I was afraid that if I pressed him, it would affect his mental state and potentially ruin his research on the Wanmu Wolf. Who the hell could have imagined that in just two or three months, this damn kid would not only complete the cultivation of the Wanmu Wolf but also get in touch with the Legion? And he had even directly completed the cultivation for the Legion's Forest Wolf Troop? If someone had told me that, I, Vice President Liu, would have considered them an idiot. But now, I, Liu Fuhai, feel like I'm the idiot myself.

Can a Genius Breeder truly be judged by ordinary standards? Wasn't the Sand-Eating Jiao evolutionary body from the Legend of the Holy Dragon obscure before its meteoric rise to fame? Of course, the Sand-Eating Jiao is ultimately not comparable to the Wanmu Wolf. Although both are Monarch Level evolutionary bodies, the Sand-Eating Jiao, in the hands of that Legend of the Holy Dragon, involved the cultivation of a Super-Rank Skill! This made that individual not only a Genius Breeder but also a powerful Beast Tamer. I haven't seen the Wanmu Wolf with my own eyes yet, but a Super-Rank Skill... that's still too far-fetched. However, comparing that Legend to Su Ping is, in itself, an exceedingly demanding task. Throughout history, how many Beast Tamers like that have there been? Su Ping, as he is now, has already amazed me.

So, at this moment, Liu Fuhai didn't say much more, just smiled and nodded, "Alright, alright, my fault, my fault. Let's go, Su Ping. No point staying here. Let's head straight to Old Zhao's place; it's almost lunchtime. You have to tell me properly, kid, how exactly did you manage to breed it?"

Su Ping nodded helplessly and was thus unceremoniously whisked away. The others could do nothing. Unless Su Ping himself wanted to leave, poaching someone of his caliber wasn't so easy—otherwise, it wouldn't lead to the almost annual spectacle of inter-provincial disputes over such matters reaching the Imperial Capital.

Of course, Su Ping didn't refuse; there wasn't much for him to do by staying anyway. At most, he could exchange some ideas with these other Wolf Pet Breeders. But at this moment, in Old Liu's eyes, these other Wolf Pet Breeders had thoroughly transformed into scheming Old Wangs, all coveting the prize cabbage in his own field. Leaving Su Ping to interact with these people? Wouldn't that be like sending a sheep straight into a tiger's den?

In the end, before leaving, Liu Fuhai couldn't resist turning back to glance at the group, saying, "Gentlemen, we are still in Jianghai. Let's not make things too unsightly."

This remark was clearly directed at Ding Yan. Ding Yan's brow furrowed, but ultimately, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Once they were in the vehicle heading to the Legion headquarters, Old Liu patted Su Ping on the shoulder, "Well done! Don't listen to those people. I'm telling you, whatever they can offer, Jianghai Province can match it completely!"
