Chapter 277: Chapter 277
Qian Qi was indeed right. After He Yao Bai finished his phone call, the Ye family, Tang family, Nangong family, Su family, and Gong family each made a call, hoping to privately make a deal with the principal to cultivate a few more B-level Beastmasters for them.
They were well aware that other families would certainly make calls too, so they raised the price high, hoping the principal would prioritize them in selecting the type of contract for B-level magical beasts.
Only Sikong Wang, caressing the newly contracted B-level Blast Flame Tiger, was grinning foolishly and was not in any hurry to find the principal to buy B-level Beastmasters.
"You better watch out," Qian Qi nudged his chin towards Nangong Yan, who was making a phone call, and reminded Sikong Wang.
Sikong Wang knew what Qian Qi was hinting at. He smiled gently, "With your love, what more do I need?"
Qian Qi rolled his eyes, "Hey senior, our relationship can’t be too good."
"Why?" Sikong Wang asked curiously.
"Because I’m afraid I won’t have the heart to rip you off when selling things, and also because I’m scared you’ll bargain with me," Qian Qi, being honest since childhood, said earnestly, "Close brothers, clear accounts. If you start haggling, I’d immediately get upset."
Sikong Wang chuckled, "Do I seem like the bargaining type?"
Qian Qi thought for a moment. Indeed, Sikong Wang wasn’t the haggling type; he was always paying above price.
"Some things are more important than money," Sikong Wang looked seriously at Qian Qi, "In the future, no matter what, the Sikong family will go all out."
Sikong Wang’s sincerity made Qian Qi a bit bashful; she crossed her arms and snorted, "It’s unnecessary; we can just maintain a purely dirty monetary exchange."
Sikong Wang smiled subtly, "Okay."
Su Ang watched the two thoughtfully, while on the other side, the conversation between Nangong Yan and the principal ended, and his gaze shifted to Qian Qi.
Being present at the scene, Nangong Yan was no fool. To command so many B-level magical beasts obediently here, the student named "Chen Tong" was evidently exceptional.
Perhaps she knows the secret to becoming a B-level Beastmaster.
However, it wasn’t the right moment to speak up. To earn the trust of a stray cat, one must proceed gradually...
With this in mind, Nangong Yan’s gaze beneath his gold-rimmed glasses became more cryptic.
A few hours later, Uncle Li arrived at Sealed City with staff from the Magic Beast Base, and with transport aircraft, they one by one sent the B-level magical beasts to the Magic Beast Base.
"The principal said to send the B-level magical beasts to the Magic Beast Base first since the school doesn’t have enough room; for now, we can only accommodate those C-level beasts," Uncle Li sat down with a small stool, cheerfully saying to Qian Qi, "Girl, you’re quite something. After not seeing you for a few months, you can command B-level magical beasts?"
"Ah, just luck," Qian Qi modestly waved her hand, "By the way, those Silver Wolves, could you make a special trip to send them to the orphanage?"
"No problem, the principal instructed to divert the crowd temporarily," Uncle Li smiled.
"That’s great, truly great!" Qian Qi couldn’t help but beam with joy, "Thank you for the trouble, Uncle Li."
"Haha, don’t be so polite with Uncle; it’s my duty," Uncle Li affectionately patted Qian Qi’s head, sighing, "In the future, the Beast Taming Department will surely be bustling."
"Speaking of the Beast Taming Department, did those guys seriously contract the Flame Dogs?" Qian Qi asked with concern, "While I was away, they didn’t slack off, right?"
Uncle Li gave Qian Qi a meaningful glance, "Not at all, now all the Flame Dogs in the warehouse have been contracted, and the college is procuring new E-level Flame Dogs. However, the Fire Willow Red Flame Fruit, Nine-leaf Red Flame Vine, and Vermillion Blood Grass that can turn them into D-level magical beasts have now been driven up to a million in price, with many Beastmasters paying top dollar for them. Currently, only the students of the Magic Plant Department have the source."
Qian Qi knowingly smiled. She hadn’t asked the students of the Beast Taming Department to keep it secret precisely because she wanted them to let the news that "the Fire Willow Red Flame Fruit, Nine-leaf Red Flame Vine, and Vermillion Blood Grass can together turn an E-level Flame Dog into a D-level one" flow into the market. Now that the students of the Beast Taming Department have personally verified how simple it is to become a D-level Beastmaster, how could those E-level and D-level Beastmasters not be anxious?
No Beastmaster would mind having more Contracted Beasts; as long as they have the money, they would certainly wish to contract a few more D-level Flame Dogs.
And the vendors selling Flame Dogs would probably be counting money until their hands cramped, wouldn’t they?
After transporting the other magical beasts away, Qian Qi boarded her silver-skinned hovercar, placed the Defense Helmet and white mice in the front passenger seat, and followed the aircraft transporting the Moon-devouring Sky-roaring Wolves back to Yan City.
Xiang Wen Yun had already received her message and took the kids to the underground bunker she had funded. After sending off the transport plane from the Magic Beast Base, Qian Qi led the Moon-devouring Sky-roaring Wolves into the Vegetable Garden Dungeon.
"Mummy~" As soon as Qian Ba entered the instance, he rushed tearfully towards Silver, who knows how much suffering he endured outside and needed mummy’s kisses to heal~
Silver raised a paw to press down on the flailing Qian Ba and looked indifferently at the Moon-devouring Sky-roaring Wolves following him in.
Qian Ba immediately whispered in wolf-speak, "Mummy! This is the second spring that Qian Qi found for you outside!"
Over there, the Moon-devouring Sky-roaring Wolves were very curious as they entered the instance. They surveyed the instance, where beyond a patch of thriving magic plants, there were only a few D-level small wolves and a single E-level mother wolf...
Where’s the leader’s wife?
The Demon Wolf General glanced around expectantly, waiting for the leader’s wife to arrive with grandeur, lead them to the leader, and restore the glory of the Moon Silver Demon Wolf Clan.
However, after a long wait, all they saw was Qian Ba rolling around in Silver’s embrace.
Demon Wolf General: ...
No way, no way, this dainty E-level Moon Silver Mother Wolf, looking like she could be squashed with a flick, couldn’t possibly be the leader’s wife!
When did the leader start fancying a delicate little spouse!
The Demon Wolf General felt like the sky was falling. Though the Moon Silver Demon Wolf Clan wouldn’t abandon weak wolves, the wolf clan still revered the strong. Imagine anyone discovering their powerful, imposing leader found a dainty, delicate wife—it’s like a bolt from the blue!
When the Demon Wolf General saw Silver, it released Qian Ba and slowly walked towards them.
Before the imposing Demon Wolf General, Silver appeared remarkably petite. Yet, for some reason, amidst its casual and relaxed demeanor in the face of B-level Demon Wolves, there seemed to be a faint air of supremacy and arrogance. It gave the Demon Wolf General an illusion that Silver was once a very powerful leader of a wolf clan, commanding an army of magical wolves.
It said something to the Demon Wolf General, leaving the general stunned. When it regained its senses, the look towards Qian Ba became quite different.
Recalling something else, the Demon Wolf General immediately gazed at Qian Qi, its eyes filled with reproach.
Qian Qi, squatting and pulling out little white mice from the Defense Helmet: ?
What happened? Why the sudden judgmental look?
Could it be that they discovered the magic beast levels in this instance are too weak to their taste, so they want to leave?
That won’t do. Once you’re in my vegetable garden instance, you’re my wolves; no backing out! ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
