On the 8th November, Year 36 of the New Era…
Around noon, Zhang Che gradually closed in on the safety zone flying on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, with an excited elemental queen sitting behind him.
The elemental queen was getting excited, thinking about watching television once they exited the beast world, wanting to hug Zhang Che’s back to thank him.
Seeing there were more and more people in his sight, Zhang Che instructed her expressionlessly without turning back, “Cover your face.”
“Oh.” The elemental queen conjured a fire elemental veil somewhat unwillingly, covering her beautiful face.
Truthfully, with her devilish figure, she might draw even more attention onto herself after covering her face. Sometimes, it was even more alluring when only a faint appearance was shown. If everything was exposed, it might not be as attractive.
As such, Zhang Che continued, “Oh, right, change the style of your clothing, too. Don’t be so revealing.”
“Heehee! Does Master only want to see for himself?” the elemental queen giggled. Although she was teasing Zhang Che, she still conjured a long robe obediently and covered up her slender body thoroughly.
With that, the elemental queen’s charm was completely hidden, not drawing anyone’s attention. But, this woman actually dared to tease him?
-She’s getting bolder by the day!-
Zhang Che turned his head around, giving her a fierce stare. However, the elemental queen wasn’t intimidated at all. She even breathed out from her mouth intentionally, lifting her veil slightly and revealing her seductive red lips.
“d.a.m.n it, I absolutely can’t let her watch television anymore. She’s learned all the bad things!” Zhang Che grit his teeth, deciding that he had to reorganize himself after returning. He had to find something to divert the elemental queen’s interest and re-educate her on expressing herself. He definitely couldn’t let her learn from those seductive characters on television, or wouldn’t she become so audacious in the future that she’d find her way into his bed in the middle of the night?
That was absolutely intolerable!
——
As the master and servant teased one another, they soon arrived at the safety zone.
Zhang Che and the elemental queen hopped off of the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s back together. Afterwards, the dragon turned into a ma.s.s of rainbow light and flew back into Zhang Che’s spiritual sea, and the two walked towards the crowd to the spatial gateway.
Seeing the two coming over, the people nearby hurriedly gave way to them. They were experts with an epic-quality subdued beast! Who would dare fight them to cross the spatial gateway first? If these two were the vengeful type and remembered their faces, they could forget about having peaceful days in the future!
Seeing the reactions of the crowd, Zhang Che raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t expect the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to have such an effect. If he had known about this earlier, he wouldn’t have asked the elemental queen to cover herself with a veil and long robe. Even if she was walking stark naked at his side, there wouldn’t be many who dare to steal a glance at her.
In the past, Zhang Che had always summoned the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon further out from the safety zone, and thus he didn’t cause a huge commotion. From the looks of it, the intimidation aspect of an epic-quality subdued beast was really impressive!
——-
As they crossed the spatial gateway, Zhang Che’s personal terminal immediately vibrated. When he saw the message Huang Juyun had sent him, his complexion instantly changed.
“What!? That faction from the Bei Mei region actually sent people to attack the villa!?”
Although Huang Juyun had clearly stated that Liu Gang’s squad had easily fended off the ambushers, and that his mother Sun Lan and Huang Tielan were safe, Zhang Che was still furious. A chilling aura immediately erupted from his body.
The expressions of the beastmasters who came walking out of the spatial gateway quickly changed one after another, hurriedly walking around Zhang Che, afraid of offending the enraged beastmaster.
Sensing his fury, the elemental queen at the side hurriedly asked, “Master, what happened?” On television, it was said that the subjects would give their lives to take revenge for the humiliation their masters suffered. -Who actually dared to make my master so angry? I have to find them and burn them to as.h.!.+-
“Some people think they’ve lived too long a life! Come, we’ll go back first! We’ll talk about this on the way.” Zhang Che had a dark expression, and was not in a hurry to explain the situation. He walked to the military camp at the side quickly.
The elemental queen hurriedly followed behind, not in the mood to watch television.

Shortly afterwards, Dijiang-hao rose to the skies, speeding off in Bei Du’s direction.
Zhang Che had briefly explained the matter to the elemental queen. After hearing about the origins of the matter, a strong wind suddenly blew inside Dijiang-hao. It was the fire elements in the surroundings, on the verge of eruption.
The elemental queen grit her teeth. “Those people are quite daring! Master, should we fly over immediately and teach them a lesson?!”
“Keep calm. Are you trying to burn my aircraft?” Zhang Che glared at the elemental queen after sensing the rampaging fire elements in her body, annoyed. Afterwards, he said, “The time is not ripe. After this ambush, they’ll surely be on guard against our revenge. I’m not strong enough yet. With them on their guard, I might not be able to gain any advantage. It’s better to wait until I’m a Tier Seven beastmaster first.”
Seeing Zhang Che had decided what to do, the faintly rampaging fire elements in the elemental queen’s body quickly calmed down. She nodded in agreement, “That’s right. As Master has said, the enemies definitely have a number of high-tier beastmasters. They will surely have more than a handful of epic-quality subdued beasts as well. We really don’t seem to have a chance against them if we strike now.”
“Mmm. We’ll wait for Master to advance to Tier Seven beastmaster first, then we’ll go crush them!” The elemental queen even swung her little fist fiercely.
Unlike her appearance, she was really fond of fighting. She actually grew so excited that she even forgot about watching television after hearing about going to find trouble with others!
Zhang Che couldn’t help but turn to look at the elemental queen with a renewed, curious gaze. However, in the next moment, she suddenly opened her personal terminal and quickly searched for a romance film, watching it intently.
“Okay… I must be out of my mind, to actually think she would forget about watching television…”
——
The journey was a silent one. Dijiang-hao flew at extreme speed tens of kilometers up in the sky. A little less than four hours later, they landed at Bei Du Airport.
After walking out from the runway, he saw Liu Gang waiting outside in a respectful manner.
Zhang Che and the elemental queen nodded at Liu Gang in acknowledgment. After getting inside the car, they directly drove off towards the villa.
In the car, Zhang Che opened the soundproofing part.i.tion in between the front and back seats and said to Liu Gang, “Big Brother Liu, thank you guys so much for that matter!”
Liu Gang didn’t dare to take credit for it. He hurriedly answered respectfully, “You’re too kind, Zhang-shao. This is our responsibility. Moreover, it was all thanks to the two epic-quality beast cards Zhang-shao left behind. Otherwise, we might not have been able to capture those ambushers so easily.”
Ever since Huang Juyun had a.s.signed the three of them to Zhang Che, they knew their lives would be thoroughly tied to Zhang Che if nothing unexpected happened.
Obviously, following a powerful beastmaster with unlimited potential like him was many times better than staying in the Huang family, not to mention they were all equipped with legend-quality subdued beasts shortly after becoming Zhang Che’s men. Some time later, he even left two epic-quality beast cards for them, even though the main reason was to ensure his mother’s safety.
However, that level of generosity wasn’t something ordinary people could compare to!
——
After returning to the villa, Zhang Che saw that his mother wasn’t affected by the ambush from before, and finally relaxed. At the same time, he decided that he’d have to make a trip to Bei Mei once more after he rose to Tier Seven beastmaster and became stronger to get back at them.
If he didn’t teach them a lesson, heavens knew what kind of tricks they’d pull next time! Zhang Che wanted them to know that a dragon’s reverse scale was untouchable!
Shortly after, Huang Tielan’s voice suddenly rang out from outside as Zhang Che chatted with his mother, “I’m back, Zhang Xiaoche!”
“You’re back, Xiaolan! You two talk. I’ll go prepare dinner.” Sun Lan stood up tactfully, leaving the two youngsters alone and going into the kitchen.
“Hah, are you especially happy seeing that I’m back?” Zhang Che couldn’t help teasing when he saw Huang Tielan was so excited.
“Shameless. Who cares if you’re back,” Huang Tielan gave him a sideways glance. Afterwards, she said happily, “Zhang Xiaoche, this Miss here is already an intermediate beast card cultivator. Don’t make me angry, or you won’t have anyone to help you advance your subdued beasts!”
“What? You’ve already pa.s.sed the exam for intermediate beast card cultivator?” Zhang Che was totally surprised. Although he knew Huang Tielan was extremely talented in that field, he truly didn’t expect her to become an official intermediate beast card cultivator after having not seen her for only a few days.
“Of course! This Miss is a one-in-a-century genius beast card cultivator!” Huang Tielan answered proudly, raising her head high.
“Tsk, tsk! Not bad, not bad! Our Miss Tienan is indeed the best!” Zhang Che smiled. He took two steps forward and gently brought Huang Tielan into his embrace.
At this moment, a head stuck out from upstairs. The elemental queen said with a pure face, “Eww, Master, the two of you are so mushy. I can’t watch my television.”
Zhang Che was frustrated! The nice atmosphere was ruined by her just like that. She really was getting more and more impudent. Zhang Che shot a glare at the elemental queen on the second story fiercely, but the latter wasn’t afraid at all. She giggled and retracted her head, continuing to watch her romance film.
Huang Tielan had a streak of black lines on her forehead, too. The good mood from reuniting after a short absence was thoroughly destroyed. She pushed Zhang Che away and ran off into the kitchen to help Sun Lan cook.
Zhang Che was speechless. That pet of his was really too much. It seemed very necessary to give her a good spanking on her b.u.t.t!
——
The next morning, Huang Tielan went back to school, while Zhang Che drove to a weapon shop in Bei Du.
He was going to buy a strength-testing device to see how strong the frisky monkey’s arms were, in order to customize a superstrong bow for him later on, allowing the monkey to display some powerful force in combat as well.
After all, having a powerful long range attack was oftentimes pretty advantageous!
