My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 340 - Chapter 340 Chapter 339 Removing the Stain (35)

Chapter 340: Chapter 339: Removing the Stain (3/5) Chapter 340: Chapter 339: Removing the Stain (3/5) Qin Zhenbei’s roar echoed in the meeting room, the sound filled with pain and unwillingness.

The world thought that as soldiers, they had hearts of stone, but in reality, they were simply accustomed to life and death and had learned to disguise their emotions.

After all, they were human, and as humans, they had the full spectrum of emotions and desires. They would laugh heartily when happy, and the sacrifice of a comrade could cause them immense pain.

Little Sun looked somewhat at a loss as he gazed at the meeting’s chairman.

The elder in the Zhongshan suit waved his hand at him and turned to look at Qin Zhenbei.

“Little Qin, do you still think Shao Zifeng has no problems?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenbei looked at the two similar faces on the screen and painfully closed his eyes.

If he had known in advance that Shao Zifeng was Zhou Zimin’s son,

Qin Zhenbei would not have had a good impression of Shao Zifeng.

But now…

Qin Zhenbei clenched his teeth, his heart struggling madly.

“I still think he’s good… at least, better than his father.”

Having said this, his whole being seemed to deflate.

The old men around the central meeting table nodded in satisfaction at Qin Zhenbei’s persistence.

The elderly woman with the surname Tang looked at Qin Zhenbei with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.

She glanced at the elder in the Zhongshan suit, dissatisfied, “Alright, just spit it out. Look how you’re pressuring the kid.”

“Haha, Tang is the one who understands me best.”

He turned his head and glared at Qin Zhenbei, “Little Qin, sit up straight and listen carefully.”

“Little Sun, tell him who applied for the encryption of this Shao Zifeng’s files.”

“Yes.” Little Sun quickly brought up the information: “Applicant for encryption of Shao Zifeng’s identity: Yang Qian, former commander of the 78th Division of the Army, ‘

“What? The old commander.”

Qin Zhenbei was stunned, staring blankly at the encryption application on the big screen.

Ears might mishear, but the files definitely would not be wrong.

The other generals in the meeting room stirred slightly at the sight of Yang Qian’s name on the screen.

Yang Qian was once one of the legendary Combat Training Masters of Daxia.

As one of the first eighth-rank Combat Training Masters, Yang Qian’s strength and status truly merited the word “legendary.”

At his peak, he and his partner, the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros, single-handedly blocked multiple attacks from mutant creatures and were dubbed the Shield of Daxia by net users of that time.

Following the military reforms, he personally created the ‘Si Armor Army.’

Regrettably, his Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros later suffered grievous wounds in battle–the kind that were nearly incurable.

With his status as the legion commander of the ‘Si Armor Army,’ he could have contracted with a regressed-evolving young rhinoceros, but his deep affection for the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros led him to forego this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Latterly, as Daxia stabilized, the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros’s condition deteriorated; therefore, Yang Qian, in his prime, applied to retire, becoming the director of the Abnormal Administration Bureau, and promoted Qin Zhenbei to legion commander of the ‘Si Armor Army.’

Since then, the legendary ‘Shield of Daxia’ faded from public view.

Not just Yang Qian, but nearly all the twelve chiefs present were the second generation of their respective military units,

and the sacrifices of the older generation in those initially harsh conditions were truly enormous.

The reason Daxia was able to stabilize the situation so quickly was inseparable from their contributions.

“It’s really the old chief!”

After venting the frustrations that had accumulated over twenty years, Qin Zhenbei’s mood unexpectedly improved quite a bit, or you could say, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

Especially after finding out that Shao Zifeng was someone the old chief valued.

Qin Zhenbei, rubbing the stubble on his chin, chuckled, “I knew it, this kid definitely has no issues. The old chief is truly the old chief, his judgment is just like mine.”

The other generals facepalmed, wondering who would talk about their old chief like that.

The elderly man in the Zhongshan suit looked at Qin Zhenbei with a smile, feeling much more relaxed.

As the legion commander of the Great Xia’s Twelfth Corps, the old man had always been worried about Qin Zhenbei’s psychological issues.

This was also the reason why he had repeatedly tolerated Qin Zhenbei’s rambling.

He had tried several times to talk to Qin Zhenbei and guide him through conversation, but every time they touched on the past, the young man would joke around and change the subject.

This time, when reviewing the files sent up, he unexpectedly discovered that Shao Zifeng was actually the son of Zhou Zimin.

So he took this opportunity to provoke Qin Zhenbei, letting him have a good vent.

Now looking at the results, it wasn’t too bad.

“Ahem.”

The cough of the man in the Zhongshan suit drew everyone’s attention, and after pondering for a moment, he said with a smile, “Shao Zifeng is quite a remarkable young man.”

“Although one can see he was distrustful of the officials before, given his background, we need to be understanding as, after all, the child is innocent.”

“Despite that, he made considerable efforts during the Su City calamity, the underground platform practice in Dragon City County, and the events involving the Holy Origin Society in Yundu City.”

“Now, he has rescued the Snow Dragon vessel two… no, three times. In the end, we are the ones who owe that child.”

“Here I propose we completely remove any information related to Zhou Zimin from Shao Zifeng’s file, do any of you object?”

With these words from him, Shao Zifeng’s affairs were settled, and his background would no longer contain any stains in the future.

The people present all agreed, and the proposal was unanimously passed.

Next, as if to prove what the old man had said, the large screen began to play a series of video clips.

In these clips, there were the wings of flame during the catastrophe of Su City, scenes of the Dragon Flame Meteor in the Yundu sanctuary, and his participation in the qualification matches in the Yundu Region.

The video formats varied and the clarity was inconsistent, but all the elders and chiefs watched with great interest.

After all, each young person in Great Xia represents the hope of the future, especially an outstanding one like this.

Following the scenes on the big screen, several chiefs showed considerable interest in Shao Zifeng’s cherished beast.

“An Nan, what’s the deal with this kid’s white deer?”

Her ‘Jade Deer Army,’ which was mostly composed of female soldiers, primarily provided logistical support and healing assistance to various legions and was hugely supported by them, becoming the pursuit of young men in the legions.

Lu Anan, dressed in her crisp military uniform, looked dashing with her short black hair.

Ever since the young deer appeared, Lu Anan had been captivated by it, as the standard-issue mutant creatures in their legion were jade deer.

Hearing the middle-aged female general’s question, Lu Anan shook her head: “It’s a very strange mutant creature. Initially, I thought it was an albino sika deer, but it’s clearly not affected by albinism due to a genetic defect. What’s more amazing is that later on it evolved into an Elemental Body… I’ve never seen this kind of mutant creature before.”

“Tsk tsk, it wouldn’t be another throwback, would it?”

Lu Anan seriously said, “Evolution through throwback has a racial uniqueness. It shares the sika deer species with the initial species ‘Ninety-Nine,’ and since Ninety-Nine is still around, it’s unlikely to be a throwback.”

Seeing Lu Anan’s serious demeanor, the middle-aged female general laughed: “I’m just joking with you, big sister. Don’t be so serious, or you might have trouble getting married in the future.”

Hearing this, Lu Anan showed an embarrassed expression.
