Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 575: Chapter 267: Dragon Emblem! The Little Crow Who Aspires to be a Hero!

The sun shone bright and cheery. The warm spring sun beat down upon the earth, decisively driving away what little remained of winter’s chill.

Su Ping squinted at the dazzling sunlight. He thought back to the final scene.

What was all that about? Wasn’t it just that I’d bombarded the Myriad Flowers Secret Realm a bit? The issue was, Old Qin himself had said that I and little Paperman Qian Yi could deploy our abilities at will, and that with the Emperor Peony present, the Secret Realm could recover on its own, right? So, in the end, he couldn’t take it anymore? Now, not only did he not see me off, but he even kept Lord Sang Sheng and Qin Xiaoxue, who were supposed to, back there. Of course, I also knew this was purely so Lord Sang Sheng and Qin Xiaoxue’s Wood Element Pet Beasts could help restore the Myriad Flowers Secret Realm. It wasn’t as if the old man was truly angry with me over this. The Myriad Flowers Queen might have said she consumed a ’minuscule’ amount of Energy and needed a short nap, but she hadn’t suffered any fundamental damage. As for those flower bodies, they would grow back eventually. At worst, the shrapnel and aftershocks from the Fire Sword projectiles had damaged some of the floral resources outside the central garden of the Myriad Flowers Secret Realm. Hadn’t I also offered to stay behind and have Old Sha help with the restoration? That’s precisely why Old Sha had been waiting in my Beast Taming Space all along. Yet, not only Qin Erlong but even Lord Sang Sheng had directly prevented my polite offer to help restore it. What did that mean? Don’t they trust me?

Su Ping felt quite indignant.

Be it the Linhai Secret Realm or the Myriad Flowers Secret Realm, neither had anything to do with my subjective will, right? Can I be blamed for this? And they even called me a ’Secret Realm Killer’? This was slander! Defamation!

At this thought, Su Ping felt even more indignant about the unfair impression this old couple had of him.

Seeing Su Ping’s expression, Liu Fuhai shook his head. This was Su Ping through and through. The Myriad Flowers Secret Realm was one of Old Qin’s most prized possessions. This kid had wreaked havoc in there to the point Qin Erlong’s face was green when he finally left, yet he still managed to squeeze out a smile. It was clear Old Qin was really trying his best to endure it. However... Liu Fuhai broke into a smile. Damn, that felt satisfying! That old fellow had kept this Myriad Flowers Secret Realm for his own use, intending for the Myriad Flowers Queen to advance to the Spirit Saint Level. Although, as the chairman of the Linzhou Controlling Beasts Association, this wasn’t entirely out of line, and it was a mutually beneficial arrangement for the Secret Realm and the Myriad Flowers Queen. But that old fellow had a formidable wife who not only gifted him the Mu Long she obtained when she advanced to the Spirit Saint Level but also this Peak Myriad Flowers Queen and Secret Realm. Who wouldn’t be green with envy? Now, being able to see this Old Ghost discomfited was, naturally, the best thing possible. Especially since, strictly speaking, he, Old Liu, had also played a part in what happened.

Getting into the car, Liu Fuhai finally relaxed and couldn’t help but comment, "It truly deserves to be recognized with a Dragon Emblem for Skill Cultivation. To have been fortunate enough to participate in such a Skill Cultivation endeavor in this lifetime, I can die without regrets."

Su Ping glanced at the old man. Is it that serious? One skill is enough to let him die content? However...

Su Ping raised an eyebrow, "Dragon Emblem?"

Hearing this, Zhu Hong finally recalled, "Su Ping, I’ve been meaning to tell you. I reported your Zhou Tian Wu Xing Physique to the Legendary Lord!"

"Hmm?" Su Ping’s eyebrows shot up, suddenly energized. "What did he say?"

It had to be said, Su Ping had practically grown up hearing this individual’s name. Although this person rarely appeared in public, their existence and the numerous changes they brought about were major reasons for the Dragon Nation’s current prosperity and development. Of course, just as the First Emperor built upon the arduous efforts of six preceding generations, the Dragon Nation’s own profound historical foundation and substantial accumulated strength were also crucial factors in its success. It was just that, before now, this name had seemed so distant from him. Like a figure from a mere illusion, but now, such an entity had suddenly become distinct. His research findings had actually alarmed this personage?

Recalling that person’s words, Zhu Hong’s expression became somewhat complicated, and he touched his nose a bit awkwardly, "Of course, it’s very good. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally intervened to secretly grant you the Dragon Emblem, along with some privileges of the Spirit Saint Realm and a Breeding Master. However, there are some things you’ll need to go to the Imperial Capital to claim in person."

Su Ping gave the man a quizzical look. Why did Master Zhu Hong and, previously, Lord Sang Sheng, both adopt such an expression when relaying words from this person? Did that individual have some peculiar habit in this regard? However, it was clear that at this moment, he was more interested in something else.

"Um, what is the Dragon Emblem?" To be mentioned so many times by Master Zhu and Liu Fuhai, this item was clearly extraordinary. Of course, anything honored with the name ’Dragon’ would naturally be extraordinary.

Liu Fuhai sighed with envy but no jealousy, "I’m not too clear on the specifics. It’s better to let Master Zhu explain it to you."

Zhu Hong pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly, "Well, you would come into contact with it sooner or later anyway. But Su Ping, you don’t need to be anxious. This Dragon Emblem, granted to you for now, is also a recognition of your status and your contributions to the Dragon Nation!"
