Su Bai and his team did not take any other bounties after the previous one.

There were plenty of orders on the bounty board they could have taken, but Su Bai’s team was currently immersed in the joy of leveling up.

“Boss, my Thunder Panther’s strength has reached Mid-10 Platinum level!” Lu Le happily reported to Su Bai.

“Very good, full of spirit. What about Bing Qingqing?” Su Bai asked.

Bing Qingqing smiled and said, “Mid-5 Platinum level. I’ll work hard to reach the Upper level!”

Su Bai encouraged Bing Qingqing gently, “You’ve improved a lot, haven’t you?”

During this period, Bing Qingqing had been training intensely. Her Beast was only Lower-2 Platinum level before, but now it had jumped straight to Mid level.

Su Bai even doubted if their bodies could withstand such rapid progress.

Initially, Su Bai wanted to take on more bounties, but given their current situation, his teammates were more suited to rest. Murong Xue, in particular, needed the most rest.

Previously Murong Xue was at the Mid-4 Platinum level, she had already reached the Upper-10 Platinum level and would soon reach the High level.

Su Bai admired their efforts. Even the Beasts he had set in the training space were no longer sufficient for them.

Meanwhile, Yan Xuan and his team were equally busy. After Yan Xuan requested some new Alchemy books from his professor, he and Olive, and Yan Yi began studying diligently. They did this not for anything else but to improve their strength. Their hard work and dedication made Su Bai wonder if he was too laid back.

Nevertheless, Su Bai was not idle either. After helping the villagers by dealing with all the Beasts, he received a considerable amount of medicinal herbs as gifts. Those herbs were considered ancient medicinal herbs.

Su Bai could not help but wonder why the village was still so poor despite having so many ancient medicinal herbs. However, Su Bai soon got his answer as the villagers were very responsive to his questions.

No matter what Su Bai asked, they had an answer ready.

[Seadaemon City wanted our ancient medicinal herbs, but we refused to give them.]

[They wanted us to hand over the prescription for the medicine we researched in the past.]

[Once we handed over the prescription, they took possession of those medicines and even used them to raise fierce beasts.]

[When we stopped selling them, they started attacking us.]

Su Bai finally understood that those Beasts were indeed raised by someone and the ones raising the Beasts were from Seadaemon City.

Su Bai sighed, “I didn’t expect them to be so greedy.”

However, those people were really crazy. Su Bai complained to the village chief for a while and then put all his attention on the herbs. Those herbs were one of the herbs used in Hex arts that Su Bai had studied before.

Su Bai clicked his tongue and said, “I didn’t expect the Seadaemon City to be so interesting!”

Su Bai had encountered the Hex Arts medicinal herbs in the elder’s house back in Heavencraft City. However, the elder had already passed away.

Su Bai wondered, ‘Could there be a significant connection between the Seadaemon City and those families? If not a significant connection, then perhaps they were supplying them with various medicinal elixirs.’

Su Bai pondered for a moment, thinking, ‘I need to meet the Sea Demon City.’

However, before Su Bai could take the initiative to contact them, the chairman of the Seadaemon City’s Beastmaster Association and his people came to Su Bai’s base.

At least they were polite, much better than the first group of people who tried to attack Su Bail s base and were repelled by his security measures.

Upon their arrival, the robotic servant immediately informed Su Bai, “Boss, there are people outside here for important matters. They are people…”

The robot’s choice of words was set by Yan Xuan. He wanted everyone in the base to experience the authority of being the boss. Of course, when Yan Xuan first said it, Lu Le had retorted that they were plotting a rebellion.

Yan Xuan just pushed his glasses and did not say much.

Those people were still the first group of visitors to their base.

Su Bai raised an eyebrow, and he chose to open the door for them with the switch on the robot. Then, the robot at the gate brought the chairman and his group in.

Han Zhengzhi of the Seadaemon City Beastmaster Association and several others followed the robot into the reception hall.

Su Bai was already waiting for them. As Su Bai looked at Han Zhengzhi’s condescending face, he felt somewhat displeased, for some reason. It seemed that a fight was inevitable, or else it would not be appropriate to see Han Zhengzhi’s expression on his face.

“Please sit.” Su Bai said as he pointed to the seats on the opposite side of him.

The people took their seats one by one. After Han Zhengzhi sat down, he went straight to the point, “Tell me, what conditions do you have for returning Qiongqi to the Beastmaster Association?”

Su Bai could not help but laugh. Han Zhengzhi’s words made it seem like Qiongqi originally belonged to the Beastmaster Association.

Su Bai knew very well that if Qiongqi were to be returned to the Beastmaster

Association, it would not belong to them; it would simply be taken by Han Zhengzhi.

Su Bai sneered, “Of course, in your dreams.”

Qiongqi now belonged to Su Bai, and he had also invested a considerable amount of resources into it. There was no way he would let go of it. Even if Su Bai had not used resources on it, he still would not hand it over to Han Zhengzhi.

Han Zhengzhi seemed to have anticipated Su Bai’s attitude and said, “In that case, I’m afraid I’ll have to accuse you of theft.”

Su Bai raised an eyebrow, “On what grounds?”

“Stealing the Beastmaster Association’s Beast. For that, no matter where you go, you’ll be a criminal,” Han Zhengzhi said.

Su Bai smiled, “What evidence do you have to prove that it’s your Beastmaster

Association’s Beast?”

The Beastmasters accompanying Han Zhengzhi looked at each other.

Qiongqi was a Monster from the Ancient Forest. Even before they brought it back to the Beastmaster Association, it had already been taken away by Su Bai.

Moreover, if they were to argue, it was not really a Beastmaster Association’s Beast because the Ancient Forest belonged to anyone.

Those Ancient Monsters not only attacked Beastmasters, they even attacked humans. Many soldiers were deployed until they were finally able to encircle the ancient forest, preventing the Ancient Monsters from attacking and harming people.

In the face of Su Bail s questioning, Han Zhengzhi had no idea how to respond. His group could only turn their gaze to him.

Han Zhengzhi seemed to have thought everything through. He already knew what Su Bai would say on his way here.

“We have a letter of authorization, commissioning the Seadaemon City’s military to guard this Ancient Monster on behalf of our Beastmaster

Association. Moreover, I can clearly state all the abilities and skills of this Ancient Monster,” said Han Zhengzhi.

Su Bai looked at Han Zhengzhi with interest and asked, “Oh? Are you sure?”
