Chapter 414: Chapter 414

"I’ve long heard of Mr. Qian’s exceptional beast taming skills, and now that I’ve seen them today, they really are extraordinary."

Amidst the lively atmosphere, a middle-aged commander with a slightly stern demeanor strode over while speaking. Whether intentionally or not, he brushed past Sikong Wang’s shoulder as he crossed over and respectfully reached out to Qian Qi.

"Hello, I’m Li Jingran, the chief commander of the Si Family Army. The Family Head sent me to take you to the military camp."

Li Jingran observed Qian Qi with calm eyes. Before arriving, Sikong Lin had specifically emphasized Qian Dafang’s importance, although the Family Head’s introduction wasn’t necessary for him to understand the significance of Qian Dafang, a powerful Awakener and Beast Master.

Someone is certainly not to be offended.

Qian Qi glanced at his extended hand, her gaze sweeping past Sikong Wang’s usual expression.

Though she had long noticed, whether it was the Sikong family’s housekeepers or the Si Family Army, they all carried a subtle but unspoken disdain and disrespect for Sikong Wang, she thought that this situation might improve now that Sikong Wang was exposed as an S-Class Spiritual Awakened.

But now it seems otherwise, could it be that he hasn’t made it public yet...?

Noticing Qian Qi’s gaze, Sikong Wang gave her a warm smile, appearing as gentle and friendly as always.

Qian Qi smiled knowingly, and after a somewhat polite handshake with Li Jingran, she bypassed him to Sikong Wang, draping an arm over his back like they were close brothers, and said unabashedly, "Wangwang, would you find a special plane to send these Ya Ya back to school for me? I feel safest leaving it to you."

"Okay." Sikong Wang agreed swiftly, "I’ll take you back to the military camp first. You fell into the instance and scared both my dad and Uncle Su half to death."

"Hmm?" Qian Qi puzzled, "I understand why your dad was scared, but why was Uncle Su frightened?"

Sikong Wang realized belatedly that it was Qian Qi’s "nickname" for Su Xingchen.

"I don’t know." Sikong Wang pondered briefly before earnestly saying, "Maybe he’s afraid you’ll go on a frenzy, monopolizing the instance’s boss without supervision over here, which would then increase his workload of smoothing over the other families’ explosive mental state?"

When put like that, it might actually be something Su Xingchen would "fear."

The two laughed and chatted as they walked into the distance, leaving Li Jingran bewildered, staring at the close relationship between the two, his expression somewhat surprised.

The worthless young master actually has such a good relationship with Qian Dafang?

But, what exactly does Mr. Qian see in this petty D-level Beast Master? The young master anyway?

Not only was Li Jingran puzzled, but the other Si Family Army members present were also very confused. After all, everyone in the Sikong family’s ranks knew that the Family Head’s son was a failure. Even though they were polite to him on the surface, they actually looked down on Sikong Wang internally, believing he was undeserving of his position as the heir.

Furthermore, because he was a failure, the Si Family Army was often ridiculed as a useless, trashy army in front of other family armies, inevitably feeling dissatisfied with this ineffective young master.

During this battle for Qing City, the Family Head even handed military power to a young master with no battlefield experience. Although this young master had enough self-awareness not to make Li Jingran give up command authority, the military still felt that the Family Head’s decision was too frivolous.

It’s because of pampering his son that he’s now disregarding the lives of those brothers who have fought life and death for the Sikong family.

Army morale has slowly wavered.

But at this moment, Mr. Qian, who was explosively popular online, was uniquely favorable towards the young master, far surpassing the other six family heirs, making people inevitably remember it as odd.

Could it be that this is the benefit of a political career? Is the Family Head allowing the worthless young master to take the political path actually a way to indirectly strengthen the Sikong family’s power?

The Si Family Army exchanged looks, feeling they had come to a realization!

No wonder—it’s worthy of the Family Head! His thinking is truly forward!

If this young master’s relationship with Qian Dafang is indeed very special, then they might not be able to just retreat a step, reluctantly supporting Sikong Wang as the next Family Head!

Qian Qi’s hovercar was still parked in the same spot, though Qian Qi’s beloved car had its door wide open, and the White Extreme Rats within were nowhere to be seen. They had probably gone off searching for shiny things and rescuing people again.

A huge White Extreme Rat came running from afar, dragging along a small White Extreme Rat like a cat catching a mouse, pinning that small White Extreme Rat underfoot.

The small White Extreme Rat had a Light Brain in its mouth, and upon closer inspection, it was the very Light Brain that Xiao Wang had lost.

Yet this small White Extreme Rat was certainly not one of Qian Qi’s White Extreme Rats from the Ice Glacier Dungeon, but rather one from a different instance, its eyes seeming both arrogant and clear, completely unburned by the "cruel instance society."

Big White Extreme Rat snatched the Light Brain away, releasing the small White Extreme Rat, who boldly squeaked in anger, trying to snatch the Light Brain back but inevitably failing, getting pinned into a pile of dirt by Big White with one foot.

The big rat’s pair of glossy red eyes immediately welled with grievance, staring at Big White Extreme Rat stubbornly, evidently adopting a resilient look as if having been beaten down by workplace seniors.

Big White Extreme Rat proudly presented the Light Brain in both paws to leader Qian Qi.

The shiny thing was supposed to be tribute to Moyu, but with Qian Qi here, this astute Big White Extreme Rat naturally prioritized offering it to Qian Qi.

Qian Qi took it and handed it over to Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang placed the Light Brain back onto his wrist, but as luck would have it, his peripheral vision happened to catch Big White Extreme Rat’s round red eyes, which kept darting at his wrist.

Especially as those two small paws rubbed their backs together in the air, giving its face an immediately greedy and indecent demeanor.

Xiao Wang paused momentarily, then realizing something, quickly removed the Light Brain again.

He knelt down, lightly coughed, and said in a worshipful tone, "Great Rat, this is what Xiao Wang offers to you! Please don’t be shy!"

Big White Extreme Rat, having mixed with Moyu, naturally understood the meaning of offering tribute and immediately widened its eyes.

It looked at Xiao Wang and then at Qian Qi. Upon seeing Qian Qi nod, it cracked a grin, and its sly, greedy little paws happily accepted the Light Brain.

Wearing the newest Light Brain around its neck as if flaunting the latest handbag, it looked extremely pleased. Then remembering something, it extended a little finger and poked at the Light Brain, revealing the unlock password.

It pointed to the Light Brain and then looked at Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang’s eyes widened in disbelief, "It even knows the Light Brain has a password?"

"Maybe it learned from the Poisonous Emperor Python..." Qian Qi was unsurprised by White Extreme Rat’s knowledge of Light Brain, given they had evolved to start creating their own writing.

Xiao Wang found it novel and amusing, giving Big White Extreme Rat the password and watching it fiddle with the Light Brain for a while before reluctantly preparing to return to the car when, unexpectedly, his pants leg was tugged by Big White Extreme Rat.

Big White Extreme Rat’s lively beast eyes fixed on Xiao Wang filled with desire, and not knowing if it was from being single for too long, Xiao Wang even found this White Extreme Rat to have a good-looking, well-balanced appearance, not at all terrifying like other Magic Beasts.

"You want... to come with me?" Xiao Wang took a few steps back, seeing Big White Extreme Rat follow every move, he softened and crouched down to ask.

Big White Extreme Rat immediately climbed onto his shoulder, chirping eagerly while clutching his collar.

Xiao Wang immediately looked to Qian Qi for help, "Qian, what does this mean?"

Qian Qi also didn’t know, since Bai Ji was busy training in the Beast Taming Space’s Secret Realm with no one to translate for her, but seeing this White Extreme Rat looking like it wanted to go with Xiao Wang, she couldn’t help but grab the White Extreme Rat’s tail and flip it to examine.

Xiao Wang dared not move at all, "Qian, Qian, what’s wrong?"

Da Fang pondered for a moment, puzzled, "It’s a male... I thought it was female, wanting to go with you." Perhaps it has peculiar tastes..."
