Lin Jin knew that it was demonic magic that was driving these beasts into a frenzy so he didn't kill the saber-toothed tiger.
The tiger's owner was drenched in sweat. He had just returned from the jaws of death so he couldn't even speak. Only then did the others come to their senses and gasped in shock.
The four demonic appraisers were stunned as well.
The old man with the purple-gold crown looked especially grim.
"Elder Zhou, there's an expert."
"I know."
The old man's gaze was cold. He looked around and mumbled, "No matter who the expert is, I refuse to believe that he can overcome my attack."
Having said that, he made a hand seal hidden within his sleeve.
In the next moment, a few mosquitoes flew out from his sleeves and quietly flew towards the other beasts.
This flying mosquito was the key to driving these beasts into a frenzy.
These flying mosquitoes were refined using a special demonic technique so each one of them was extremely valuable. These mosquitoes could silently fly into the beasts' mouths, noses, orifices, and even into their brains. This was why these beasts would go berserk, submit to human control, and even bite their master.
This was also one of the demonic appraisers' most advanced spells.
As a high-ranking member of the Demonic Appraisal Association, Elder Zhou had been successful in using this demonic art for the past several decades. No one had been able to see through it and no one had been able to break it. Moreover, he had always been a cautious person so he had never failed.
This time, it was the same in his understanding.
No one could stop them from obtaining what they wanted from the Qiao family.
If the Qiao family knew what was good for them, they would hand over the item with both hands. If they didn't, they would just take it from them.
This was how unscrupulous the demonic appraisers were.
But this time, Elder Zhou had no idea that he had encountered an expert.
Lin Jin suddenly noticed something flying toward White Ape and Escort Zhang's mountain lion. Yet, neither the white ape nor the mountain lion noticed it.
It was only because Lin Jin was prepared and spread his psyche that he noticed it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to detect the problem just like before.
Now, he knew.
Two tiny flying mosquitoes flew over. When Lin Jin noticed them, he flicked his fingers and two needles shot out to kill the two flying mosquitoes without anyone noticing.
This was a battle between experts.
At the same time, Lin Jin noticed the mosquitoes flying toward the other pet beasts as well. They had already burrowed into their ears and nostrils. Lin Jin knew that the reason the pet beasts went berserk earlier must have something to do with these mosquitoes.
It was too late to kill the flying mosquitoes now. Fortunately, he could solve the problem by restraining the pet beasts in advance.
In this way, without anyone noticing, this round of battle had already ended.
Lin Jin gained the upper hand.
Every time a Berserk Flying Mosquito was used, there would be one less, and it couldn't be recycled. Now that he had lost five or six of them, Elder Zhou would be lying if he said he didn't feel the pinch.
Eyes wide, he slammed the table and stood up.
He didn't know who did it, but he was sure that it was someone in the crowd.
Therefore, he didn't care about the others. Instead, he cupped his hands towards the surroundings and said, "I wonder which expert is present. Since it has come to this, why don't you come out and meet me?"
At this time, the Qiao family still hadn't reacted. Why did this guest suddenly stand up and say such inexplicable words?
Qiao Xing was about to step forward, but he was quickly pulled back by Qiao Feigong.
"Father, you …"
"Don't speak." Qiao Feigong's gaze was stern. As the saying went, 'old people become wiser'. At times like this, Qiao Feigong could still tell what was going on.
That elderly guest was obviously no ordinary person. There must be a reason why he suddenly spoke so strangely. So, Qiao Feigong decided to observe first.
After all, it was hard to tell if he was a friend or foe.
Qiao Feigong wasn't dumb. He knew that some people with ulterior motives had snuck into the crowd today. Perhaps that thief from last night was here as well.
And among those who had yet to leave, there must be enemies.
Especially since there were five unfamiliar faces here.
On one side were four people, led by the purple-robed old man who spoke earlier. On the other side was a young man who sat beside Escort Zhang.
Qiao Feigong had noticed these two groups long ago. To him, there was definitely something fishy going on between them.
At the same time, Qiao Feigong ordered his subordinates to get ready to make a move.
After all, he had a feeling that any enemy targeting the Qiao family, no matter which side it was, was about to make a move.
The scene suddenly became a little strange.
Seeing the crowd of pet beasts and Qiao family members surrounding them, Elder Zhou sneered. "Still not showing yourself? Hmph, fine. If that's the case, let's see if you can hold yourself back. "
Elder Zhou believed that the other party didn't show themselves because they were afraid of them. But in fact, Elder Zhou was very conceited. To him, the Qiao family was nothing more than a piece of meat in his mouth.
He could eat them whenever and however he wanted.
No one could stop him.
Not even the City Lord Manor of Reed City could stop him.
Of course, he was aware of the grudge between the Qiao family and the previous City Lord. Hence, Elder Zhou was certain that the Qiao family wouldn't dare report this to the authorities.
If the Qiao family only had a few Rank 3 pet beasts, Elder Zhou believed it would be a piece of cake to eliminate them. At the very least, it wouldn't take much effort.
At this, Elder Zhou bellowed, "Attack!"
The next instant, the three men he brought with him stood up. The young man with the large rat performed a spell and the cat sized rat on his shoulder grew in size. In the blink of an eye, it grew to the size of a cow. It looked terrifying with razor-sharp claws and fangs. Pouncing on one of the Qiao family's pet beasts, it bit them to death.
"It's a thief!" Qiao Feigong could tell as well. With a roar, the Qiao family's pet beasts swarmed in. But at that moment, the man behind Elder Zhou, the one with burnt eyebrows and hair glared menacingly. He patted the large bat on his shoulder. The bat flew up and let out a shrill shriek. The soundwaves were so loud that the bowls and cups on the table shattered. Everyone quickly covered their ears but many of them still felt their ears prickling from the shriek. They felt dizzy and those who weren't strong enough collapsed to the ground.
Many of the Qiao family's pet beasts were also dizzy. Even their Rank 2 pet beasts couldn't unleash their full potential.
"Haha, this Spiked Drum Bat sure is powerful," the bald man guffawed proudly.
With this, the Qiao family only had three Rank 3 pet beasts that could still fight. However, their owners were currently dizzy and unable to control them.
Elder Zhou raised his hand and a puff of black blood sprayed out, drenching the Qiao family's Rank 3 pet beasts. In an instant, the three pet beasts cried out in pain as the black blood corroded their fur and turned into a black mud-like substance that stuck to their bodies.
