Divine Beast Adventures

Edited by Aelryinth

At this moment, Sister Guo passed by with her client. She looked curiously at Sun Lan and Zhang Che, and casually asked Sun Shaoying, “Hey, Shaoying, now that you received your niece, do you want me to give you a lift in my company car?”

“It’s fine. Lin Quan is coming to come fetch us when he knocks off work,” Sun Shaoying smiled, rejecting Sister Guo’s goodwill.

“Aiya, how can Lin Quan’s car hold so many of you? Our company drove two cars here. I’ll have one of them send you later. Let’s settle on that. I still have to attend to my client; I’ll get going first.”

Done speaking, Sister Guo turned to one of her attendants and instructed them. Afterwards, she nodded at Sun Shaoying’s group and walked out to the main lobby.

Sun Shaoying was helpless. She could only watch as Sister Guo’s attendant followed after them.

Sun Lan asked in a whisper, “Aunt, who was that? Why is she being so friendly?”

Sun Shaoying pursed her lips. “She’s an old neighbor. Her family moved away after their business succeeded and became rich. Although she likes showing off and her words are a little mean sometimes, she’s still an alright person.”

As the aunt and niece duo chatted, the group exited the arrival hall.

Since Xi Muyun’s husband, Lin Quan, wasn’t there yet, everyone waited for him at the main lobby.

At this moment, a fleet of cars suddenly drove in, drawing the attention of everyone.

The fleet wasn’t big; only five cars. However, two of them were the newer beastly car models. One look and you’d know it was a telling sign of a super wealthy family. Let alone owning one, even seeing one was rare for the common people.

The car door opened. A tall and muscular man alighted, walking straight towards Zhang Che’s group. He laughed out from afar, “Hahaha, I’m sorry, Brother Zhang Che. I was stuck in traffic for a bit. Luckily I made it in time nonetheless; you’re still here. If not, this brother wouldn’t have the face to show himself.”

Sun Shaoying’s family was dumbstruck.

The two elders weren’t affected. However, Xi Muyun knew who this muscular man was. He was the youngest son of the most influential family in the Tian Xing City, the Luo family. What exactly did this never-met-before nephew do for a living, that he would know a huge figure of this level?

Zhang Che hurriedly walked up and smiled, “Big Brother Luo is really too polite. For you to come to receive me personally, this brother is really overwhelmed by your favor!”

“Hahaha, it’s rare for Brother Zhang to come to this one surnamed Luo’s territory. If I didn’t come to receive you, how would I show my face outside if this gets out? Come, come, get in the car quickly. I already reserved the top level private room of Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant. They’re just waiting to start serving.”

Xi Muyun received another shock after hearing this.

-Looks like cousin’s son is truly remarkable, to have the Luo family’s fourth young master reserve the top floor of the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant to receive him. It seems like their relationship is rather extraordinary.-

Luo Wenjun invited the group to get in the car warmly. Sun Shaoying was a little awkward, however. Although she didn’t know Luo Wenjun, she could tell from the imposing fleet that this young man before her wasn’t simple.

But, her son-in-law was already on the way here…

Xi Muyun poked her mother lightly, whispering, “Mom, just let Lin Quan drive over by himself.”

The group got into the two beastly cars, and soon the fleet drove out of the airport under the envious gazes of the onlookers, heading straight in Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant’s direction.

Of the two cars, Sun Lan was with Sun Shaoying’s family in one, while Zhang Che and Luo Wenjun were in the other.

In the car, with no outsiders around, Xi Muyun voiced her questions, “Cousin, what does Xiaoche do? He’s actually acquainted with the fourth young master of our Tian Xing City’s Luo family?”

Sun Lan was a little confused. “Is that person’s family powerful?”

To be honest, after Zhang Che casually buying two of those beastly cars earlier, Sun Lan wasn’t very surprised to be sitting in these cars now. As such, she also wasn’t curious about Luo Wenjun’s status.

In her mind, even her son could buy two of these cars without thinking much about it. Naturally his friends could also afford such cars. Wasn’t that right?

Xi Muyun nodded, “They’re not just powerful. They’re VERY powerful. Their Luo family is the most powerful family in our Tian Xing City. They hold great influence in politics, the army, and the commercial sectors.”

-How do they compare to my daughter-in-law’s family?- Sun Lan thought to herself. Her expression remained unchanged, saying, “Oh. I’m not sure, either. I think he’s a friend Xiaoche made while making a living in the beast world. Anyway, I don’t usually ask him about these matters.”

“Woah, is Xiaoche that amazing? He doesn’t even look to be over twenty! And he got to know such powerful people in the beast world! Then he must be very strong himself?”

Women seemed to be born with the interest to gossip. No matter young or adult, or even straight up old, they couldn’t extinguish their burning desire to gossip.

“Xiaoche? I’m not sure about his exact strength. I think he’s already a mid-tier beastmaster?”

Speaking of this, Sun Lan felt very proud of her son.

While the family chatted happily, in the other car, Zhang Che was shocked by the bomb of information Luo Wenjun threw at him.

“You’re saying your subordinate discovered an epic-quality beast in the beast world who is about to give birth? Why are you telling this to me?”

Zhang Che found it very strange. Shouldn’t he report such a huge opportunity to his family? With the Luo family’s strength, they should be able to assemble a powerful team easily and go slay that epic-quality beast who was about to give birth.

Although Luo Wenjun and he got along well, their relationship wasn’t THAT great, was it?

Luo Wenjun smiled bitterly and explained, “Brother, I have three older brothers above me, and even more cousins. Let’s say that I reported this news to the family; what would I get? At the most I’ll only be rewarded with some purple crystal points. But am I someone who lacks money?”

Zhang Che immediately came to a realization. It was nothing more than power struggle within a large family.

He wasn’t interested in getting involved in those matters, but asked worriedly, “Then, is that epic-quality exotic beast mid-tier or high-tier? We can give it a try if it is mid-tier. But if it is a high-tier beast, we can just forget about it. Even though the exotic beast would slip into a weakened state after giving birth, it is definitely not something we can win against.”

Seeing Zhang Che acting so calm, Luo Wenjun immediately felt assured. He said, “That I am not sure about. But I remember your ice dragon is very fast. So, escaping is not a problem, even if we can’t win against it. With such an opportunity before your eyes, can you bear to give up without giving it a try?”

Seeing Luo Wenjun staring at him so intently, Zhang Che considered it for a while. He didn’t accept directly. Instead, he said, “I ask for Brother Luo to give me a night’s time to consider such a huge matter. I’ll give you an answer tomorrow no matter how it goes, alright?”

“Great!” Luo Wenjun slapped his thigh joyfully. “With your word on this, this brother is assured!”
