After the battle, the battlefield was cleaned up for three whole hours. The corpses of the monsters on the ground were sorted out and stored in the cold storage room. Some of the heavily injured monsters were stabbed to end their pain and fill up the storage room.
The rest of the monsters that had lost their defense or suffered moderate or light injuries were locked up in cages and sealed rooms.
The cages and rooms were filled up. The monsters were scared out of their wits. They were like rabbits that had jumped in front of a tiger for half an hour. Their legs were so weak that they didn't have the strength to run or fight back.
Gao Peng believed that the water ghost, the six-legged antlered tortoise, and the Golden Pincer Leopard Prawn were going to dominate all the Southern Sky Group stores in Yang Cheng.
"We'll make up for all the losses we suffered this time from these monsters!" Gao Peng said to Hou Mu, the general manager of the Yang Cheng branch.
"Young Master Gao, the value of these monsters isn't that high. They used to be sold in the market, but not many people bought them," Hou Mu said hesitantly. "Unless the monster itself is worth a lot, most people buy familiars based on their appearance."
The truth was just as Hou Mu had said. These monsters were not good-looking. The water ghost was small and skinny, like a shriveled monkey. Its wet hair was messy, and it looked malnourished. Unless it was someone with special interests, most people would not buy a water ghost as a familiar. Other than being agile and having sharp claws, there was nothing special about the water ghost. Perhaps it was more agile in the water than on land, which could be considered an advantage.
But in fact, these advantages could be replaced in the market. And those replacements were much better looking than these skinny monkeys.
Gao Peng frowned and walked to a metal cage placed in the courtyard. Inside the cage, which was glowing with silver light, sat a green-faced, fanged water ghost.
The water ghost sensed Gao Peng walking over and rubbed its claws on the ground, ready to attack.
Just as Gao Peng's hand was about to touch the bars of the cage, the water ghost jumped up and lunged at Gao Peng's fingers with its shiny fangs.
Gao Peng's palm did not retreat. Instead, it pierced through the railing and slashed at the water ghost's head.
The water ghost couldn't dodge in time and was hit squarely on the head. It was as if it had been hit in the head and almost split open.
Holding his head, he squatted in the cage and glanced at Gao Peng. Holding his head, he took two steps back. Gao Peng glanced at it. It moved back a little and stared at Gao Peng vigilantly.

[Monster Description]: A small water ghost that lives in the coastal areas. It likes to devour flesh and blood.
The path to Excellent Grade showed more detailed information about the monster's evolution.
Gao Peng narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. Maybe it was because of the increase in the strength of his soul. He didn't know when he had broken through the threshold.
There were a total of six evolution paths. Gao Peng looked through all six paths and then glanced at the Shallow Sea Green Algae Water Ghost. "Keep these water ghosts for now. The dead ones can be sold, and the living ones can be kept," Gao Peng said to Hou Mu.
Hou Mu nodded to show that he understood.
He then told the others not to sell these Shallow Sea Green Algae Water Ghosts for now.
Gao Peng walked over to the cage next door. Inside the cage was a six-legged antlered tortoise. Some of the black antlers on its back had already been broken off and were scattered on the ground. The edges of the broken antlers were rough and full of spikes. When it saw Gao Peng coming over, it only glanced at him indifferently.
[Monster Name]: Six-Legged Antlered Turtle
[Monster Grade]: Normal
[Monster Level]: Level 18
[Monster Attribute]: Earth/Wood
[Monster Condition]: Moderate injury, internal organs damaged (indifferent)

[Monster Description]: A monster that lives in the sea. Every winter, it comes ashore to lay eggs. The antlers on the turtle's shell are used to dissipate heat and circulate blood, reduce swelling and ward off evil. When used, they are used to nourish the kidneys and strengthen the blood. When used to make cream, they are used to nourish the body.
The name of the Six-Legged Antlered Turtle's evolution path was a bit of a mouthful. What impressed Gao Peng the most was that the antlers on the back of this Six-Legged Antlered Turtle had such a magical effect.
Gao Peng noticed that some parts of the antlers on the back of the Six-Legged Antlered Turtle had healed. This meant that this thing could regenerate.
"Raise these Six-Legged Antlered Turtles and harvest their antlers regularly." Gao Peng picked up a small piece of antler that had fallen to the ground. The antler was completely black and looked ordinary. It felt furry to the touch and was quite pleasant to the touch.
Finally, there was the Leopard Prawn. The Leopard Prawn was not big in size. It was only about two meters long, and that was the length of its pincers.
Its entire body was brown, and there were patterns of gold coins the size of bottle caps on its shell. Its temperament was fierce and warlike.
"Prepare these Leopard Prawns. You have a laboratory here, right … Forget it, let's put this aside for now. Call all the middle management and above in the company over here." Gao Peng paused. "Gather in the company's big conference room in an hour."
"Oh right, contact the hospital. The company will pay for all the medical expenses of all the injured people. The injured employees will be compensated, "Gao Peng added.
"Understood."
The ground floor of the four-story building was opened up. Looking up, it was more than ten meters high. The entire ground floor had six purple iron Zhennan wood pillars that were as thick as three people hugging it. A red carpet ran through the hall and extended to the bottom of the rostrum.
The front of the rostrum was decorated with carved wooden handrails that were half a meter tall. Above the rostrum, there were rows of dove-eye sized light holes that emitted white light.
Gao Peng stood on the platform. He was wearing a white slim-fit suit. His posture was tall and straight. His short black hair was combed to the back, and his slender black eyebrows were as black as ink. "Everyone here should know me … although they've only seen me in photos."
"This time, Southern Sky Group was able to withstand the attack of the monster horde. The heroes of the Southern Sky Group Security Department played a huge role." Gao Peng raised his right hand and pointed at the people sitting in the eastern area below the platform.
