Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Qin Wanfeng Arrives

Bai Emperor had no idea whether he understood Xiao Zhan’s words or not; he just kept meowing with eager eyes full of desperation.

Xiao Zhan had had it with this glutton, always thinking about eating.

He took out two Spirit Fruits from the Dimension Space, and Bai Emperor’s eyes suddenly sparkled. He extended his fluffy little paws, snatched the Spirit Fruits into his embrace, and began gobbling them down urgently.

It didn’t take even half a minute before he finished both Spirit Fruits.

After finishing, he gazed at Xiao Zhan with hope.

"Damn, two aren’t enough, are you trying to eat me out of house and home?"

He used to be satisfied with just one, and now two weren’t enough. Did he starve the entire time he was gone for the last few days?

But looking at its fur, it didn’t seem to have starved, obviously.

Still, Xiao Zhan had no choice but to take out another two Spirit Fruits, which Bai Emperor joyfully accepted and continued devouring. After finishing these two, he finally showed a satisfied expression.

Then, with a hop, he jumped away from Xiao Zhan, sprawled lazily on the bed, yawned and prepared to sleep contently.

Seeing its behavior, Xiao Zhan was speechless.

Eat, sleep, sleep, eat; such a true animal.

"Get off!"

Ye Youlong kicked it off with a foot.

It’s barely been half a month, and it’s forgotten all manners, huh? Daring to even climb onto my bed!

"Meow!"

Bai Emperor let out a disgruntled meow, but upon realizing it was Ye Youlong who kicked him, he quickly lost his temper.

He sullenly found a corner and went to sleep.

...

Meanwhile, at General Northern’s Mansion.

The command center!

Right after Ye Youlong cut off the communication, the operator immediately realized what happened and promptly reported the situation to Huang Yuan.

Hearing this news, Huang Yuan immediately understood everything.

Considering there had been no news from Huang Jun for several days, he knew Huang Jun and Huang Fei were most likely in dire straits.

"Have you located the signal’s origin?"

"We have. It’s from a village on the outskirts of the Demon Beast Forest. I’ve already dispatched nearby personnel to apprehend them," an officer replied.

Huang Yuan waved his hand dismissively, "No need. If a Fifth Grade Spirit Master plus two squads couldn’t capture him, what use is sending those people now! It will only blow things out of proportion!!"

"Yes," the officer bowed his head.

Huang Yuan’s expression turned grim. Now that Xiao Zhan had escaped, the high-ups would soon find out, and they would immediately send investigators.

And once evidence was discovered, he would be done for!

Thus, what he needed to do now was to erase all traces, leaving nothing for the investigators to find.

"Issue the orders, proceed with the plan!" Huang Yuan commanded coldly.

"Yes."

...

Back to Xiao Zhan.

Very soon, a helicopter arrived in front of them.

Qin Wanfeng, anxious, disembarked from the aircraft. Seeing Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Director Qin, why did you come in person?" Xiao Zhan was surprised.

He never expected Qin Wanfeng to personally come to his rescue.

This gesture moved him a bit.

"Are you both alright?"

"We’re good."

Qin Wanfeng looked over the two with concern and, upon confirming that indeed there weren’t any issues, his face overflowed with anger, "Damn that Huang Yuan, how dare he do such a thing to you—I’ll make sure he pays for this!"

"Director Qin, did you report this to the higher-ups? What did they say?" Xiao Zhan was more concerned about this at the moment.

Qin Wanfeng responded, "I’ve already reported it. The higher-ups are taking this very seriously and have already sent someone to investigate."

"Investigate?"

Qin Wanfeng knew what he meant and said soothingly, "This is a matter of federal importance, we must thoroughly investigate before taking any action. It’s not something that can be decided based solely on your word. I know this is unfair to you..."

"No no, I don’t feel wronged," Xiao Zhan interrupted. "I’m not feeling wronged. I’m just a bit worried about the situation at the Northern Town."

Investigations take time, and if dealing with the investigation causes delays in other matters, then the loss would outweigh the gains.

Qin Wanfeng sighed, clearly aware of this point.

He glanced at Ye Youlong and said, "There’s no other way about it. This concerns the stability of a region and the security of the entire Federation. We cannot act rashly."

Xiao Zhan nodded; he understood the Federation had its reasons and didn’t dwell further on the matter.

"When will the investigator arrive?"

"They have already set off for Northern City. According to the higher-ups, they want me to bring you guys along," Qin Wanfeng said.

This was exactly what Xiao Zhan and his party had in mind.

Qin Wanfeng continued, "You don’t need to worry about safety; both the people the Federation is dispatching and I will take good care of you."

As he spoke, a woman popped her head out from the airplane and greeted Xiao Zhan and the others with a friendly gesture.

Xiao Zhan was seeing this woman for the first time, but with one glance, he knew this was Qin Wanfeng’s Artifact Spirit.

Because there was no one else left in the airplane but her, it had to be Qin Wanfeng’s Artifact Spirit. Qin Wanfeng was supposed to protect them; he couldn’t do that alone, could he?

Qin Wanfeng promptly introduced her, "This is my wife, Shu Wan."

"Hello," Xiao Zhan nodded in greeting.

"Hello," Shu Wan greeted back with a smile.

Then, she curiously looked over Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong, these two young men that Qin Wanfeng had been incessantly talking about. She had taken an interest in them early on, and this was the first time she was seeing them in person.

She had a beautiful smile, looked quite young, and her demeanor was very gentle. Standing next to Qin Wanfeng, they really didn’t look like a couple.

Instead, they somewhat resembled a high-level manager and his mistress.

However, Shu Wan’s gentle demeanor revealed that she was not that kind of person.

Xiao Zhan couldn’t help but marvel; he hadn’t expected that Qin Wanfeng, a big tough guy, could maintain his Artifact Spirit so well.

But well...

Xiao Zhan thought of this and turned to look at his own ’wife’.

Ye Youlong had also been well-maintained by him, having taken the Crystal Jade Skin Pill, preserving his youthful appearance perpetually. When he grew old, walking down the road with him would surely turn heads.

Soon after, they boarded the helicopter, and just then, a shadowy figure leaped aboard.

"This is?"

Thinking it was a Demon Beast attacking, Qin Wanfeng subconsciously prepared to act, but he stopped when he saw the white shadow jump into Xiao Zhan’s arms.

At the same time, he curiously looked at the white figure and then at Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan quickly explained, "Oh, this is my pet."

"Pet?" Qin Wanfeng blinked his eyes, "Isn’t this a Demon Beast?"

"Yes, it’s a Demon Beast."

Qin Wanfeng was somewhat surprised, "Didn’t expect you to be quite capable, lad. To tame a Demon Beast—and it doesn’t seem very strong."

Demon Beasts can be tamed, but generally, equipment is used to assist in the process, and it requires a professional to succeed.

For someone like Xiao Zhan to have tamed a Demon Beast in less than a month’s time was truly amazing.
