"But we are one of the Four Great Families … How can they do this? This, this …" A young man from the Qian Family panicked.
"Why don't we reject it? It's just a challenge letter anyway," someone from the Qian Family suggested.
"I think, I think it's possible." Some people were tempted by the idea. They were nervous, but at the same time, a little relieved.
Whether or not they could beat Gao Peng, Gao Peng had a good grandfather. Even if they won, what would they do if they went home and complained to their grandfather?
Some people from the Qian Family comforted themselves with this thought.
"We can't reject it." The head of the Qian Family, Qian Qingyuan, sighed. She didn't want to reject it, but sometimes, trouble fell from the sky when one sat in one's room. There was no way to avoid it.
To be honest, Qian Qingyuan was still wondering how the Qian Family had offended this young master.
Could it be that they had their eyes on the Qian Family's property? This thought lingered in Qian Qingyuan's mind for a few seconds before dispersing. That shouldn't be the case. The Southern Sky Group was a big business. They might not be interested in the Qian Family's property.
Qian Wuliang slammed the table and said in a low voice, "Okay, no need to talk anymore. Accept his challenge. Hmph, I, Qian Wuliang, have never been afraid of anyone. After I defeat him, I'll spare his familiar's life!"
Qian Wuliang was tall and thin. He had a mustache on his upper lip and a goatee on his lower jaw. He wore a grey Chinese tunic suit and looked like an old scholar from the beginning of the last century.
His personality was similar to his clothes. They were both old-fashioned.
To be honest, he didn't think much of Gao Peng, mainly because of Gao Peng's young age.
Young people couldn't handle things well. Young people always gave people the impression that they were impulsive and careless.
What fame? What Undead Calamity … Heh, young people like to do all sorts of fancy things. Even their names are fancy.
Qian Wuliang stroked his goatee, feeling a little unhappy.
These juniors … They hadn't even fought yet! Both of them looked like they were about to lose!
Qian Wuliang's status in the Qian Family was very high. The only person who could suppress him was his sister, Qian Qingyuan. Sometimes, even Qian Qingyuan's words didn't have much effect on him.
"Spread the word that I, Qian Wuliang, have agreed to accept his challenge in three days. However, the location cannot be in the northern suburbs of Jiangnan Base City. It has to be in the western suburbs! Even if he wants to challenge me, I must be the one to choose the location. "Qian Wuliang flicked his sleeves and left, leaving behind a group of silent people in the room.
The Qian family only had two Lord-tier monster trainers. One of them was Qian Wuliang, and the other was Qian Qingyuan's eldest son, Qian Shaoyu.
Qian Wuliang didn't even listen to Qian Shaoyu's words because he was an elder, let alone other people.
Qian Qingyuan frowned. She picked up the porcelain cup on the small table and took a sip of tea before putting it down. "Since this is Second Brother's idea, then let him be."
After everyone left, Qian Qingyuan signaled Qian Shaoyu to follow her.
Passing through the attic and covered bridge, the backyard was quiet and serene.
The sky had turned gloomy, and dragonflies were flying among the lotus leaves in the pond.
"Your second uncle has always been arrogant. In the past, when your grandfather was still around, there was someone who could make him listen. After your grandfather passed away two years ago, no one cared about your second uncle. Even when Mother spoke, your second uncle didn't like to listen." Qian Qingyuan sighed. "I'm afraid your second uncle will do something stupid."
Qian Shaoyu silently followed behind Qian Qingyuan. After hearing his mother's words, Qian Shaoyu was silent for a while. "Mother, if you're afraid that Second Uncle will hurt Gao Peng, you don't have to worry. That Gao Peng is stronger than Second Uncle."
Qian Shaoyu, who had been leading the Monster Hunting Group out for years, knew better than most people in the Qian family that reputation was built through hard work. His second uncle was somewhat conservative. He had looked into Gao Peng's information. The Lord-tier familiar under Gao Peng's command was definitely of Perfect grade, and its level was at least Level 43. Moreover, Gao Peng had more than one Lord-tier familiar. His strength was not to be underestimated.
If they really fought, there was a high chance that Second Uncle would lose.
Of course, Qian Shaoyu didn't say this out loud. He wasn't a talkative person.
"I'm not afraid that your Second Uncle will hurt Gao Peng. I'm afraid that your Second Uncle can't afford to lose," Qian Qingyuan said faintly.
"Shaoyu, when your Second Uncle goes to challenge Gao Peng, remember to watch over him. Don't let him do anything out of line," Qian Qingyuan said.
"If there's a need … bring your Second Uncle back. Don't get into a conflict with Gao Peng. Shaoyu, you've been obedient since you were young. Mother trusts you the most."
"Understood." Qian Shaoyu bowed.
.....
Qian Wuliang's expression was normal as he walked out of the Qian family's side door. However, if one looked closely, they could see a trace of impatience between his brows.
Qian Wuliang was old-fashioned, but he wasn't stupid.
In fact, he had heard of Gao Peng's name even though he didn't pay much attention to the outside world. "This kid is so famous. Although it's mainly because of his grandfather, he must be quite capable himself."
Thinking of Ji Hanwu, Qian Wuliang recalled seeing the white dragon descend from the sky at the Crocodile Spirit Swamp a year ago.
It was terrifying …
Moreover, he was able to sign a blood contract with the Red-Eyed Crocodile King thanks to Ji Hanwu. That day, the Red-Eyed Crocodile King and the Lord-tier Fire Crane had fought to a standstill. The Fire Crane had died on the spot, and the Red-Eyed Crocodile King had been badly injured. Moreover, it had been intimidated by the dragon's aura, so Qian Wuliang had been able to sign a blood contract with it.
Qian Wuliang thought he had gotten a bargain, but now he had found Ji Hanwu's grandson.
"Could it be that Ji Hanwu has changed his mind and wants my Red-Eyed Crocodile King?" Qian Wuliang was even more worried when he thought of this.
He took a car to the suburbs and went all the way to the Crocodile Spirit Swamp on the outskirts of the city.
There were patches of lush aquatic plants everywhere in the swamp, and strange trees that grew out of the water drooped their branches.
A piece of driftwood covered in moss slowly rose from the bottom of the water in front of him.
Qian Wuliang stepped on it. The driftwood floated along the water and finally arrived at the center of the Crocodile Spirit Swamp.
On a flat piece of land that looked like an island, a huge creature was lying on the island, basking in the sun.
It was at least 37 meters long, and its dark green shell was full of mottled marks. Its huge toes were covered in dried gray mud, and its eyes were narrow. This giant crocodile was basking in the sun comfortably.
The warm sunlight shone on its body, but the giant crocodile didn't move at all, as if it was a silent statue.
It didn't even react to Qian Wuliang's arrival.
"Someone wants to challenge you," Qian Wuliang said to the Red-Eyed Crocodile King.
The Red-Eyed Crocodile King was indifferent. To it, Qian Wuliang's words were not as comfortable as basking in the sun.
