Mu Wanqiu's eyes widened and she could not help exclaiming, "When did that happen?"
"Just a while ago."
Jiang He recalled and said, "I had cut off a section of the Leopard Python's tail before and found its meat quite delicious. After I killed the Tranquil Heavenly General and the Earth Demon Heavenly General at the Ningdong Mines, I got bored while waiting for the MAD, so I went to the Valley of Snakes."
Jiang He took a bite of his carrot and leaned back on the sofa. "I thought it was not far and the snake meat tasted quite good, so I killed it on the way. I didn't expect it to mess up your plans."
Delicious?
Bored?
And then killed a rank-seven intermediate Feral just like that?
Mu Wanqiu fell silent, unsure how she should continue.
Most importantly, since when did rank-seven intermediate Ferals become so weak?
One should know that it was easy for a Martial Dao grandmaster at the peak of seventh-class to defeat a seventh-class intermediate Fierce Beast, but it was more difficult for him to kill one.
Still, too many miracles had happened to Jiang He. Come to think of it, it seemed that a rank-seven intermediate python was nothing compared to killing Killer Star, Pain Star, and Kun of the Left, the Sixth Elder of the Sky Demon Cult.
After musing to herself for a long time, she finally forced a smile and said, "You've killed the Leopard Python, which is a good thing for the people. How about this, I'll go back and do some intelligence work. There aren't many rank-seven Ferals around Lingzhou City, and most of the powerful Ferals are concentrated in Mount Dadong, which is where the Graywolf King is … so I'll have to investigate carefully and see if anyone has found any traces of rank-seven Ferals elsewhere."
Mount Dadong?
Actually, Jiang He was quite interested in Mount Dadong since it was an uninhabited area spanning hundreds of miles, and there were countless powerful Ferals there. Still, with the Graywolf King around, Jiang He would definitely not go there for the time being.
Stability was Jiang He's principle. Why would he go to Mount Dadong when he was not confident that he could kill his foe?
"If there aren't any near Lingzhou City, we could expand the range, such as Mount Luo or Mount Helan … I don't believe there wouldn't be a single rank-seven Feral in those mountains."
Jiang He urged.
After all, he had already promised Mu Wanqiu that he would catch a few Ferals for her as soon as possible since he had nothing better to do, and he could farm in peace.
Now, the only problem was …
How to tame beasts?
Jiang He had only met one real beast-tamer, and that was the D-class beast-tamer who came to Jinyintan Village with the unlucky rank-four Sky Demon Cult martial artist Cordo. Still, he was blown up by Jiang He's pea bomb before they could talk.
"Perhaps I can try to create my own beast taming method …"
Even as Jiang He thought to himself, Mu Wanqiu's tone changed and she smiled. "I've heard about you killing Kun of the Left, Jiang He. Kun of the Left is the Sixth Elder of the Sky Demon Cult and has an esteemed status, so he must have obtained a lot of spoils, yes?"
"This is the second thing you mentioned? Miss Mu really knows how to do business! "
Jiang He teased, saying, "Kun of the Left, the Sixth Elder of the Sky Demon Cult, is a little poor, and he only has one S-grade alloy combat blade and sixteen S-grade alloy flying daggers with him. He doesn't even have any gold bars."
He stood up and said, "I left the things in the storeroom. Wait a moment, I'll go get them."
The S-grade alloy combat blade was actually inside Jiang He's System Backpack, but he could not take it out in front of Mu Wanqiu. He just had to go to the warehouse and put on a show.
Before he left, Jiang He first went to the kitchen.
Sora was cooking in the luxurious kitchen.
She was wearing an apron that she got from somewhere, and was skillfully stir-frying meat.
"She's actually so skilled at cooking … it seems that I've been overthinking things. Maybe it's a necessary skill for a maid? If that's the case, I don't have to plant a kitchen maid for now. "Jiang He nodded to himself, smiling in satisfaction.
Still …
Whenever she wore such a maid costume to cook, Jiang He would think of movies about kitchens.
After pretending to walk one lap around the storeroom, Jiang He returned with the blade.
Mu Wanqiu stroked the back of the blade with her fingers, her beautiful eyes twinkling as she said, "Kun of the Left must have kept this S-grade alloy combat blade by his side, nurturing it with True Qi. Moreover, he must have used it to kill many people, since there's a faint malevolence and killing intent lingering on it!"
"What a shame …"
"If Kun of the Left is a top powerhouse who has comprehended saber intent and often nurtures his saber with saber intent, he might even be able to give the saber a certain amount of spirituality. By then, this saber would definitely be worth more than 300 million. Now, I can only offer you 68 million at most."
"Oh?"
Jiang He naturally knew what 'blade will' was.
"I heard from Commander Chen that Kun of the Left has grasped blade will, but it hasn't been long since he did, and he probably didn't have the time to nurture his combat blade … Sigh, why is that wretch in such a hurry to provoke me? Shouldn't he have nurtured his combat blade for a few more days before coming?"
Mu Wanqiu: "…"
She was a little reluctant to talk now.
Soon, the meal was ready.
Sora put it on the dining table before going up to Jiang He and saying sweetly, "Master, it's time for dinner."
Smiling, Jiang He rose to his feet and said, "Let's eat together, Mu Wanqiu."
Mu Wanqiu, however, gave Sora a look in surprise … Jiang He had taught such a beautiful and classy girl to this extent? She actually called Jiang He 'Master' in front of outsiders?
Not only was the uniform alluring, but she was also playing the role of a maid?
"I'm not eating, I've already eaten when I came … Eh? Why does it smell so good? "
Mu Wanqiu was about to refuse, but before she could finish, she caught a whiff of a tantalizing aroma. Hence, she braced herself and took a seat at the dining table, saying, "Alright, I'll eat a little and try how delicious the Leopard Python's meat is."
It was a simple meal.
Plain rice.
Stir-Fried eggplant with meat, and cucumber with shredded carrots.
Be that as it may, both dishes would cost at least ten million in value. Leaving aside the value of the carrots and cucumbers, just the eggplant's ability to reduce swelling, stop bleeding, and extend lifespan would drive many crazy.
Mu Wanqiu had a bite of the meat first, and felt as if every pore over her body was opening up.
Then, she took another bite of the eggplant …
There was disbelief all over her face, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Eggplant is that good?"
Hence, 'eating a little less' turned into two bowls of rice, and she finished almost half of the dishes alone.
After seeing Mu Wanqiu off, Jiang He scowled.
"Glutton!
You can eat too much! "
"I'm not even full, and there's no more food …"
Jiang He decided that he would blacklist Mu Wanqiu from now on.
Taking out a huge cucumber, Jiang He said in satisfaction, "You cooked well, so this cucumber is your reward … by the way, this is for you to eat, so don't use it for other things!"
With that, he instructed.
Only then did Jiang He happily head to the third-floor swimming pool and have a good bath.
After he was done jogging, he lay down on the comfortable Simmons bed. All Jiang He felt was comfort all over, and all he wanted to do was roll around and jump on the bed … that was something the narrow space of a sports car could never compare to.
It was only around twelve in the morning that Jiang He fell asleep peacefully.
But he did not sleep for long when he was woken up by the sound of a WeChat call.
Groggily answering it, he heard Mu Wanqiu on the other end of the call. She was beside herself with the video pointed at her chest, shrieking, "I've shrunk, Jiang He! I've shrunk …"
