At the mention of the Jade Dragon Kingdom, Lin Jin raised an eyebrow and studied Chu Xiangzhu carefully. However, he had never met this man before.
"If you have anything to say, let's talk while we eat. I'm starving." Another middle-aged man was dressed in a luxurious robe. His attire was quite impressive.
As for the other elderly man, he was holding a walking stick with a snakehead. He chuckled without saying a word.
If one looked closely, they would find that the snakehead on the walking stick in his hand was actually alive. It was constantly hissing and flicking its scarlet tongue.
"Come, have a seat!" The young master invited the three to sit down. The bald innkeeper had already rushed out to serve the dishes.
His subordinates tactfully retreated and stood guard outside. Now, only the young master and his companions were left in the private room.
No.
And Lin Jin.
By now, Lin Jin could tell that the old man's walking stick was unusual. It was a unique pet beast and if he wasn't mistaken, this strange snake was probably a Rank 4 beast.
If he had the chance, Lin Jin really wanted to study this thing. He wanted to know how it was made, or if it was some form of that beast.
A walking stick?
That sounded strange.
What they said next confirmed the identities of these four people.
"Our Demonic Appraisal Association has been expanding recently. We've already established branches in various countries in Continent Central. In terms of strength, we might not be any weaker than the Beast Appraisal Association." The one who spoke was a middle-aged man who was complaining about his hunger. This man had a huge appetite and more than half of the dishes that had just been served ended up in his mouth.
The Demonic Appraisal Association.
Sure enough.
Lin Jin could tell that this middle-aged man had used the Beastmaster Scroll to keep his pet beast inside his body. However, it might have been inside his stomach or mouth.
Because when the man was eating, he revealed a mouthful of sharp teeth.
Those weren't teeth a human could have.
More importantly, Lin Jin could tell that the man was cultivating the Beastmaster Scroll. Because none of the Beastmaster Scrolls he knew so far could cause the owner of a blood contract to reveal such a bestial appearance.
However, after considering that they were all members of the Demonic Appraisal Association, Lin Jin understood. The methods employed by the Demonic Appraisal Association were uncanny so this combination of human and beast might very well be the result of some secret technique they possessed.
From this point of view, the only one who seemed normal was Chu Xiangzhu.
Coincidentally, the man started talking as well. He was mainly talking about how he managed to escape from the Jade Dragon Kingdom. Upon hearing this, Lin Jin immediately realized that he had hit the jackpot.
This person was the culprit who stole the wooden token from the Qiao family in Reed City and tricked Zhi Yin, the monk from Daluo Temple, and the Exorcist Hall's Rector to deal with White Ape and Shang 'er.
You can wear out iron shoes in fruitless search, only to find it effortlessly!
Lin Jin was currently expressionless, his gaze cold. No matter how things developed today, Lin Jin had no intention of letting this man go.
Now that he had found it, he had to destroy it.
Lord Chu was still oblivious to the fact that Lin Jin had his eyes on him. He was still explaining.
"Our development in Reed City was going well so we could gradually infiltrate other parts of Jade Dragon Country. Who knew we would run into a maleficent existence?" Lord Chu took a deep breath, his expression filled with hatred.
"I heard about it too. Our branch in Jade Dragon Kingdom was destroyed. Who was it? From now on, the Demonic Appraisal Association will never forgive him, "the noble young master said. The others nodded in agreement.
"I've heard about that person. His name is Lin Jin and he's the chief of Maple City's Beast Appraisal Association in Jade Dragon Country." Lord Chu's eyes were filled with hatred.
"The chief of a small city's Beast Appraisal Association is at most a Rank 2 beast appraiser. How could he possibly destroy one of our branches?" Elder Ye, who was holding a snake staff, questioned.
The others were equally suspicious, including the noble young master.
Lord Chu smirked. "Elder Ye, if he's only a Rank 2 beast appraiser, he definitely wouldn't be able to do so. But that Lin Jin isn't a Rank 2 beast appraiser. He's a Rank 3 beast appraiser."
"A Rank 3 beast appraiser is indeed difficult to deal with, but that's not to the extent of …"
"I'm not done yet!" Lord Chu put down his chopsticks. "This Lin Jin doesn't come from an ordinary background. I've looked into his background and found out that he rose too quickly. Back then, he was just an ordinary kid. Without anyone's support, he couldn't have risen so quickly. Later on, I found out that the person behind him is someone called Curator."
Curator?
Some were confused while others fell into deep thought.
Clearly, some knew of this name while others didn't.
"Let's talk about Lin Jin first. He's now the number one beast appraiser in Jade Dragon Country and no one can rival him. Not only did he destroy our Jade Dragon Country's branch, but he also somehow discovered our spy in the association and killed him."
"It's Yang Qingshi?" Elder Ye's eyes widened in disbelief.
It was obvious that he knew Yang Qingshi.
"That's right!" Lord Chu nodded. "Yang Qingshi is a remarkable man. He seems to have received some kind of inheritance and knows many strange spells. The Reversed Fate Beast King Sutra was gifted to our demonic appraiser association by him. Everyone here knows how powerful this blood contract cultivation is. Zhou Weng, you're cultivating the Reversed Fate Beast King Sutra and you've successfully fused a Rank 4 cloud tiger into your body. Even in the ancient era of immortals, you're considered a remarkable physical cultivator."
Zhou Weng was the man in embroidered robes who had been gorging himself earlier. He nodded. "That's right. The Reversed Fate Beast King Sutra is indeed remarkable. Now, I'm the beast and the beast is me. This feeling is indescribable. The only problem is that my appetite is like a beast's. I have to eat eight meals a day."
Having said that, he swallowed half a chicken.
Those sharp teeth were like a tiger's as he swallowed the chicken in the blink of an eye.
"Yang Qingshi has been a member of the Demonic Appraisal Association for a few years now. His background is a mystery but we can't deny that he has contributed greatly to our association. Now that Lin Jin has killed Yang Qingshi, the Demonic Appraisal Association won't let the matter rest. Lin Jin is dead meat," Lord Chu said. Everyone agreed with him but at the same time, they had other thoughts.
"However, the Curator behind Lin Jin isn't simple either. This Curator is extremely mysterious and his background is a mystery. He rarely makes a move but every time he does, it's earth-shattering. I heard that the first time he made a move was in Jade Dragon City, where he killed the old dragon deity who ruled Jade Dragon Kingdom!" Lord Chu was clearly well-informed as he recounted these matters with great familiarity.
"You might not know about him killing the old dragon deity but there's no way you wouldn't know about him barging into Daluo Temple alone," Lord Chu added.
