After Wang Dong bade farewell to Zhang Che, his Elephorse galloped away at high speed, returning to the safety zone in no time.

He didn’t stop to rest after returning. Instead, he directly crossed the spatial gateway and headed right to the trading hub in the military camp with hurried steps.

His encounter with Zhang Che earlier left him feeling a deep sense of crisis. That area wasn’t far from the safety zone, nor was the terrain overly complicated. Since Zhang Che could wander there unintentionally, gods knew if there would be another expert beastmaster entering that area?

His information wouldn’t be worth a penny if the exotic beast he discovered was killed by others. How huge of a loss would that be!?

Burning with anxiety, Wang Dong directly walked into the Ding Feng Corporation’s mall, stating that he had important information regarding a powerful exotic beast’s location to sell them.

Seeing the anxious look on Wang Dong, the Ding Feng Corporation’s men didn’t dare to take it slowly and hurriedly relayed the information to their superiors. Zhang Yujie, who happened to be working here for a few days, immediately received the information.

“Information on a powerful exotic beast?” Zhang Yujie’s eyes narrowed slightly. He nodded, “Come, let’s go meet that guy. Also, get the members of the hunting team who are here today to get ready immediately.”

After meeting Wang Dong, Zhang Yujie directly cut to the chase, asking, “Are you sure that there aren’t any others who have discovered the place yet? Also, do you know of the said powerful beast’s strength level? You do know that if its level and quality aren’t high enough, they might not necessarily drop a beast card. I don’t wish to mobilize my men and end up empty handed.”

Wang Dong nodded profusely, answering firmly, “There shouldn’t be anyone who discovered the place yet!”

Mmm, Zhang Che was directly ignored by Wang Dong. He didn’t think that kid who wasn’t much stronger than him had the ability to hunt that powerful exotic beast.

“As for that beast’s strength, I estimate that it shouldn’t be lower than four-stars, while its quality is very likely to be gold, or even one tier higher, because I happened to witness another extremely powerful exotic beast entering its territory unwittingly, and it was shredded to pieces in a few moves.”

Zhang Yujie’s eyes shone brightly after hearing what Wang Dong said.

According to the data circulated within the Alliance’s high society, the chances of a beast card dropping increased along with the beast’s level and quality, especially mid-tier gold-quality beasts or higher. They were sure to drop beast cards.

As for dark gold or higher quality beasts, they were also sure to drop beast cards, no matter their star level!

If that exotic beast was truly as powerful as reported by this guy, it would definitely drop a beast card; this was a trip worth making!

Zhang Yujie came to a decision almost instantly. He nodded at Wang Dong, saying, “Alright, we’ll accept this deal!”

Wang Dong immediately revealed a bright smile on his face. However, Zhang Yujie spoke up again immediately afterwards, “However, you have to bring us there. The terrain there might not be overly complicated, but there are also considerable hidden dangers in that area. Wouldn’t it be dangerous if we went to the wrong place?”

Wang Dong’s face sank instantly. However, he was also prepared to go all out for the sake of the million dollar commission. If he had to lead the way, so be it! He wasn’t out to cheat them. What was there to be afraid of?

Moreover, it was widely known that Ding Feng Corporation’s Zhang Yujie-dashao was already a Tier Five beastmaster, not to mention the strong hunting team under him. With them protecting him, did he have to worry about encountering any danger at the edge of the beast world?

As if having seen through what Wang Dong was thinking, Zhang Yujie added, “Don’t worry. As long as we confirm that your information is true, I assure you that the reward of a million dollars would be yours, no matter if we’re successful in our endeavor.”

Wang Dong was thoroughly assured after hearing this.

Soon, a group of men gathered at the safety zone right by the spatial gateway. Following a loud roar from Zhang Yujie, the group of people sped towards the southeast.

This time, Zhang Yujie gathered every high-end force he could assemble, their numbers totaling over twenty. Each of the beastmasters was at Tier Four or higher.

There were five Tier Five beastmasters present, including himself!

Still feeling a trace of bitterness, Zhang Che received a warning from the Purple Jade Condor in the sky just as he detoured around those ugly toads’ territory, that a huge group of people were coming at them at high speed from the safety zone’s direction.

In addition, the Purple Jade Condor also specified that the one leading the group was the same person who had left earlier.

“Hm? Wang Dong is moving fast. He brought people here so soon?”

Zhang Che stopped in place. With a thought, the Swamp Crocodile King armor covering him disappeared, and he reactivated the Maneater Leech King soft armor. At the same time, he also summoned Hanxue to his side. After thinking for a moment, Zhang Che recalled the frisky monkey back to his spiritual sea again, and kept the Falling Star Model X bow in its container, placing it on Hanxue’s back before looking in the safety zone’s direction cautiously.

Soon, the rumbling of hooves were heard, and a party of people quickly entered Zhang Che’s vision.

Zhang Che was amazed by the sight when the party got closer. What a case of curious coincidence, indeed! The people Wang Dong was leading was actually Zhang Yujie and his men from the Ding Feng Corporation.

At the same time, Zhang Yujie’s group also noticed Zhang Che standing on the opposite side of the river, as if he was waiting for them.

Hanxue’s muscular scarlet body was immediately caught by everyone’s eyes. The group stopped in place one after another when they saw Hanxue’s proud figure.

Zhang Yujie was shocked inwardly. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “God damn, why is he here!?”

Wang Dong was similarly shocked. He cried out, “Brother Expert! Why is he here?”

Both of them were taken aback after hearing what the other said, turning to look at each other.

Zhang Yujie sent a curious look to Wang Dong, as many thoughts flashed in his mind. After which, he said slowly, “Say, are you trying to set me up?”

Alas, how could Wang Dong have anticipated such a situation happening? He shook his head profusely, saying, “No, no, no. I wouldn’t dare set you up, Zhang-dashao. I really didn’t expect Brother Expert to find this place, too! Forget it, Zhang-dashao, count myself unlucky; I won’t ask for the commission for this.”

-You’re still thinking about the freaking commission?- Zhang Yujie resisted his urge to roll his eyes back, focusing his gaze towards Zhang Che.

Zhang Che felt a little relieved after realizing that the party Wang Dong was guiding was Zhang Yujie’s men. Everything was fine as long as they weren’t some random unknowns. After all, it’d be unpleasant if a dispute sprang up here.

Wearing a smile on his face, Zhang Che mounted Hanxue and crossed the swamp, as well as the river, trotting towards Zhang Yujie’s party.

At the same time, the Purple Jade Condor’s figure swooped down from the sky, hovering over Zhang Che’s head. Its sharp eyes were observing Zhang Yujie’s group from time to time, emitting the mighty aura from its entire body, which only powerful beasts possessed.

Hanxue moved with short, light steps, stopping a short distance before the opposite party. Zhang Che greeted them amiably, “Zhang-dashao, Brother Wang Dong, what a coincidence!”

Zhang Che intentionally changed his voice when he bumped into Wang Dong in his original appearance. Even if there were some similarities, he wasn’t worried that Wang Dong would recognize his dual personas. After all, he had appeared with two completely different appearances. Even if their voices were similar, Wang Dong would definitely not be suspicious of him.

After all, it was completely unheard of in this world for someone to alter their appearance and figure so thoroughly…
