Chapter 101 - 84: Shen Hongxiu, Who Drives the Car onto a Tree
“Beast-raising? You’re insulting me with that statement.”
Chen Fan said indifferently, “Which Guardian Beastmaster doesn’t know how to raise beasts? I’m just a tiny bit better than others.”
“Moreover, I have connections in the Beast Trainer Association, and I can make use of their resources to cultivate Guardian Beasts faster and better.’
Ye Hao was sceptical, “Really?”
Chen Fan said with annoyance, “Of course, otherwise, would Ru Ge and others entrust me with the cultivation of their Guardian Beasts?”
“Besides, don’t you know, I’m an elder to Ru Ge, we are of the same generation as her father, how could I lie to you?”
Zhen Qing blinked her eyelashes slightly.
Bai Ruge’s Black Iron Dragon Turtle followed Chen Fan.
Previously, Chen Fan had even used the “Sky-Cleaving Heavenly Blade”…
Zhen Qing opened her eyes and asked, “If I entrusted you with the cultivation of my Guardian Beast, how fast would you be able to raise it?”
“The speed of the Guardian Beast’s cultivation depends on its level and potential, I cannot guarantee that,” Chen Fan said, “For a 2nd or 3rd level
Guardian Beast, improving its Combat Power Level would be relatively easier.”
“For Guardian Beasts of level tens or even higher, upgrading one level would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.”
“But I learned from a Beast Raising Master for many years, so I’m certainly much better at cultivating Guardian Beasts than you guys.”
Ye Hao immediately said to Zhen Qing, “Sister Qing, Brother Fan hails from
Imperial City and he is a senior to Bai Ruge.”
Zhen Qing squinted slightly and said, “I have two 16th level Guardian Beasts. If I entrust you with one of them, how much will it cost? What will be the outcome?”
“16th level, huh…” Chen Fan was overjoyed.
This was the phrase he was waiting for!
Having a 16th level Guardian Beast as a bodyguard would be awesome.
If he had a 16th level Guardian Beast, would he need to drag this 6th level Heavenly Fire Ant around?
He could go and hunt level 14 or 15 monsters, no problem there.
Chen Fan said, “Your Guardian Beasts were injured, so they will probably need to recover for a while.’
“As long as you’re willing to spend money and help me gather the necessary
materials, I should be able to increase your Guardian Beast’s Combat Power Level in about four months.’
“What!” Zhen Qing sat up abruptly, “Just four months?!”
Chen Fan:
He had already stretched the time quite a bit.
Unexpectedly, this still surprised Zhen Qing.
It seems that for a beast of the 16th level, a breakthrough is not ordinarily difficult.
Indeed, Zhen Qing looked at him intently and asked, “Are you sure, that in about four months, you can raise my 16th level Guardian Beast to 17th level?”
Chen Fan blinked, “It really depends on what Guardian Beast it is… If your Guardian Beast just broke through to the 16th level, then four months would certainly not be enough.”
“But the ‘Golden Gyrfalcon’ I saw before, four months should be no problem.”
“If I’m not mistaken, your Golden Gyrfalcon broke through to the 16th level over half a year ago, right?”
Zhen Qing nodded, “Nine months, it broke through to the 16th level nine months ago.”
“That’s it.” Chen Fan said indifferently, “The monsters in the wilderness can absorb the Star Power between heaven and earth, and grow naturally.”
“The Guardian Beasts of Beast Masters grow even faster…”
“Because Guardian Beasts can use the Beastmaster’s Space to grow, and they can get all kinds of resources and materials from the Beast Master.”
“Just like playing a game, your Golden Gyrfalcon has been growing on its own for nine months. Spending another four months on specific training methods to break through, the difficulty is not too great.”
Zhen Qing was silent for a moment before saying, “How much will it cost for you to help me cultivate the Golden Gyrfalcon?”
Chen Fan stretched out a hand, “Five hundred thousand union coins, and you have to provide the necessary materials… The cost of these materials may exceed five hundred thousand union coins in these few months.”
“Deal!” said Zhen Qing, “When we return to East Sea City, I will summon the Golden Gyrfalcon and let it follow you for the next few months for you to train and cultivate.”
Is the price set too low since she agreed so quickly?
Chen Fan was a bit depressed.
He had never checked the market price for cultivating a 16th level Guardian Beast and just quoted a price offhand.
Levels 6-10 is Elite level; 11-15 is Boss level;
16-20 is War General level;
There probably aren’t many War General level Guardian Beasts in the whole of East Sea City.
Indeed, five hundred thousand union coins are a bit too low.
But it doesn’t matter, he could just take the Golden Gyrfalcon and hunt monsters around level 15 in the wilderness!
Killing a few level 15 monsters casually, their value would definitely exceed five hundred thousand.
A flying Guardian Beast…
Capable of battle and flight, it felt like owning an airplane.
Chen Fan looked back at Blackie.
Blackie was far from comparable, about the size of a duck.
Even if Blackie breaks through to the 16th level in the future, it probably won’t be much bigger than now, it’s too hard to let it carry people.
“Huh?”
Blackie glanced at Chen Fan.
It felt Chen Fan’s contempt but it couldn’t find any evidence.
At this point, Ye Hao, who had been counting his chickens before they hatched, spoke, “Brother Fan, we are good brothers. You will help me cultivate my Guardian Beast cheaper, right?”
“Besides, my Guardian Beast is only level 5, the difficulty of improving a level 5
Guardian Beast is far less than that of a 16th level one.’
Without turning his head, Chen Fan said, “Flat price, one hundred and sixty thousand union coins.”
Ye Hao brightened, “Three Guardian Beasts all raised 1 level, one hundred and sixty thousand union coins?”
Chen Fan: “You’re dreaming.”
“One hundred and sixty thousand for one Guardian Beast!”
“Alright then.” Ye Hao resigned himself, “I have almost spent all the pocket money that my family gave me this month, then I will start with cultivating one Guardian Beast.”
Chen Fan blinked, “How much pocket money does your family give you a month?”
He had heard before that the Ye family was a prominent family in East Sea City.
Ye Hao howled, “I don’t know what’s wrong with my dad, he only gives me four hundred thousand union coins as pocket money each month. Including the eighty thousand scholarship from the academy, I only have four hundred and eighty thousand a month, I feel like I can’t survive…”
Chen Fan:
Ye Hao continued, “This is why I’m short of money. That’s why I wanted to join Sister Qing’s War God Pioneer Group to The Fourth Secret Realm this weekend to make a big haul.”
“Who knew there would be an Ant Swarm outbreak, now all three of my Guardian Beasts have been heavily injured, sigh, it’s too hard.”
Saying that, Ye Hao lay down again, pulled a leaf over his face, and made a show of not wanting to live anymore.
“…” Chen Fan was speechless for a moment.
The world of the wealthy is completely incomprehensible.
Spending money for a month is four hundred thousand union coins…
Keep in mind, the initial allowance from the school for a Guardian Beastmaster or a Star Martial Artist is just one thousand union coins.
Zhao Xin and Pan Xiangdong, they only chose good weapons because the class leader advanced them each by two thousand union coins.
This guy gets four hundred thousand from home in a month and he’s still crying poverty, says he can’t make ends meet…
However, it makes sense when you think about it.
It really costs a lot to feed three 5th level Guardian Beasts.
Guardian Beastmasters can earn money quickly, but they also spend it quickly.
Feeding Blackie and Feicui is relatively straightforward, but feeding giant Guardian Beasts is not that simple.
Especially a creature like Chu Xuan’s Heavy-armored Beetle King, constantly eating, always eating, it’s hard to calculate how much it consumes per day.
Chen Fan was about to speak when he suddenly halted.
The sight before him had caught his attention.
He could see about thirty meters ahead, the bodies of the Heavenly Fire Ants were scattered haphazardly. The ground was a mess, it was clear a fierce battle had taken place here.
But this wasn’t really surprising…
What was surprising was that Chen Fan spotted a beaten-up luxury car ‘perched’ upright against a towering tree.
The front of the car was high up, and the tail was touching the ground.
The luxury car was nearly parallel to the tree…
This was the World of the Guardian Beasts, where a pig could climb a tree and that didn’t surprise Chen Fan at all.
But a car starting to climb trees? That was simply absurd.
Chen Fan blinked his eyes and glanced at a large tree next to him.
Near the large tree was a girl in red armor, her hands folded across her chest, silently sizing up Chen Fan and the stretcher behind him. Seeing this girl, Chen Fan felt a touch of surprise…
The sea is vast because it accepts all rivers.
Suddenly, the girl in the red armor spotted the Cold Ice White Python and the other two Guardian Beasts following behind her.
Her eyes widened, she suddenly covered her mouth, then began to wail, “Woo… Chu Xuan, Qing Qing, Ru Ge, you guys had such terrible deaths…”
“Now that you’re all dead, I’ll be the only one left in East Sea City, what should I do!”
“Woo woo woo!”
She cried with great vigor.
But there wasn’t a single tear in her eyes.
Her eyes were still sparkling brightly.
Ye Hao pulled off the leaves from his face and said annoyed, “Shen Hongxiu!
Stop crying! I’m not dead yet!”
This beauty who drove her car up a tree was Shen Hongxiu?
Shen Daodao’s cousin?
It was her Guardian Beast that hurt Fang Qingqing’s Goblin?
Chen Fan rubbed his chin.
Shen Hongxiu walked over, glanced at Ye Hao laying on the stretcher, and said,
“I wasn’t crying for you.”
Ye Hao: “Oh, then continue.”
Chen Fan:
Shen Hongxiu looked up and down at Ye Hao with a peculiar look on her face, “Wow, Haozi, you didn’t die even after getting hurt like this? I’m so disappointed. I thought I was going to eat at your funeral feast.”
Ye Hao was furious, “I won’t die even if you do!”
“Someone who roams around all day crashing cars into trees, if anyone’s going to a funeral feast, it’s me going to yours first!”
Chen Fan couldn’t help but glance again at the luxury car ‘perched’ on the tree.
Hearing Ye Hao’s words, was Shen Hongxiu often crashing cars into trees?
The Shen family is really damn rich.
At this point, Shen Hongxiu turned her gaze to the other person on the stretcher.
The other person was also covered with leaves.
But the rise and fall of those leaves were like a mountain range…
This scale was impressive compared to hers.
Shen Hongxiu glanced at her own chest, then walked over, leaned down, and gently lifted the leaves.
Underneath the leaves, Zhen Qing’s eyes were wide open, coldly staring back at her…
“Oh my gosh!”
Shen Hongxiu jumped back, repeatedly patting her chest, “You could’ve said something, Zhen Qing, you scared me to death!”
“By the way, what happened up ahead?”
“Why was someone of your stature, the Vice Team Leader of the War God
Pioneer Group, beaten up so badly?”
“If my brother finds out, he’ll be heartbroken!”
“It’s okay. If he’s heartbroken, let him go die.” Zhen Qing glanced at Shen Hongxiu, and pulled the leaves back over her face.
The Illusion Sea Pioneer Group was backed by the Shen Family.
Shen Hongxiu’s own brother was in the Illusion Sea Pioneer Group.
The Illusion Sea Pioneer Group and the War God Pioneer Group, along with the
Tian Sheng Pioneer Group, were all under the direct control of East Sea City’s City Lord Mansion. The groups had been competing with each other for many years.
She simply couldn’t be bothered with Shen Hongxiu.
Seeing Zhen Qing ignoring her, Shen Hongxiu didn’t mind and leisurely walked towards Chen Fan.
Standing face to face, they both felt each other’s warm breath on their faces.
Shen Hongxiu tilted her head slightly, “Hey, handsome, want to hang out?” Chen Fan smiled, “No, no hangouts, mom’s not back, I won’t meet with anyone.”
Saying that, he picked up his apparatus and started to run away with the carcass of the 6th level Heaven Fire Ant.
Shen Hongxiu took a couple of quick steps forward and asked loudly, “Hey, why are Chu Xuan and Qing Qing’s Guardian Beasts following you?”
The crow standing next to Ye Hao turned its head, “Dumbass, because my Master is handsome!”
‘ Shen Hongxiu’s face fell.
Fang Qingqing’s Goblin wouldn’t dare to swear at her.
A crow dared to swear at her?
Wait a minute, why was there a talking crow?
