Beast Tamer: I can extract blood

Seven years have passed, and Chen Jiuge's cultivation level is no longer the same as it was at level three.

With the profits from the Hundred Beasts Pavilion and his own private breeding of ferocious beasts, Chen Jiuge's income is beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.

With his vast wealth, Chen Jiuge's cultivation level has also risen steadily, and he has now reached the sixth level of perfection.

The Beastmaster's unique talent had already awakened, and had even undergone a second awakening.

Rapid growth!
It was a very ordinary talent, but with the support of the Chaos Pearl and a large amount of resources, it has been awakened a second time, which has been of great use to Chen Jiuge.

With the help of the Chaos Pearl, cultivating the bloodline and special traits of ferocious beasts is very simple!
Rapid growth allows ferocious beasts to accelerate their growth without losing their potential, which is like adding wings to a tiger for Chen Jiuge!
The fact that the three farms in Tianguang Manor can produce resources so quickly is also thanks to Chen Jiuge's talent.

Chen Jiuge and Yun Congyi's plan was also related to the Hundred Beasts Pavilion. The Hundred Beasts Pavilion was an industry under Yunyan, and the simplest way to show loyalty was to strengthen the Hundred Beasts Pavilion.

However, without Yunyan to withstand the pressure from others, the difficulty for the Hundred Beasts Pavilion to grow stronger has increased dramatically.

Chen Jiuge's idea is to develop in the outer circle!
The outer circle is a complex place with many powerful forces having established a presence there. However, the outer circle is dozens of times larger than the inner circle, and the powerful forces in the inner circle cannot control everything. Chen Jiuge's idea is to open a branch of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion in the outer circle!
If profits are low, then open more branches.

Although the outer circle is chaotic, its overall strength is still far behind that of the inner circle. There are also quite a few armed teams in Tianguang Manor, which are enough to protect the businesses in the outer circle!
However, starting a branch store without Yunyan's instructions might cause some trouble, but compared to Yun Congyi's current state, these minor issues are not important!

After agreeing on some general procedures, Yun Congyi left Chen Jiuge's room, looking slightly excited.

"Phew, Yunhu's arrival is just in time!"

"This has given me a good opportunity!"

"Yun Congyi has been in the main city of Twilight for so many years, he should have some understanding of the outer circle, which is much more convenient than me figuring it out on my own!"

Yun Congyi did not disappoint Chen Jiuge's expectations, and in just half a month, he got the outer branch settled.

"So fast?"

Chen Jiuge was somewhat taken aback; Yun Congyi's actions were beyond her expectations.

Yun Congyi smiled awkwardly and said, "This is a matter of life and death, so I have no choice but to do my best."

“Mr. Chen, setting up branch stores is easy, but finding beast tamers to oversee them is not so easy. Most of the beast tamers in the manor were transferred from within the Yun family!”

"Before, with the young lady around, these beast tamers seemed quite obedient. Now that the young lady hasn't shown herself for a long time, the two of us probably can't control them!"

"The armed forces are actually simpler. I personally selected them all, and they are loyal only to the young lady. They have nothing to do with the Yun family, so they can be mobilized at will."

"Then there's no problem. As for the beast tamer, I'll go myself!"

"Mr. Chen?"

Yun Congyi's face showed a hint of surprise: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"What's the problem? The Hundred Beasts Pavilion is now on the right track, and the output of the breeding farms in the Beast Academy is getting higher and higher. As for the Blood Flood Dragon, I can also breed some every month. Although it's a bit troublesome, there shouldn't be any problem!" Chen Jiuge asked in return.

"But the outer circle is the outer circle after all, completely different from the inner circle. Those people are risking their lives!"

"Manager, I also come from a small place!"

"Oh, Mr. Chen, when do you plan to leave?" Yun Congyi asked somewhat apologetically.

"Three days later!"

"Three days? I understand!"

Three days passed quickly. Because of Yunhu's presence, Chen Jiuge left quietly. Under the protection of two armed teams, he took some necessary supplies and manpower and left without a trace.

Ninety-ninth Street and the outer ring are separated by only one wall; this giant wall divides the two worlds.

Unlike the clean and peaceful inner circle, the environment gets worse the further out you go in the outer circle, and the more ferocious the cultivators you encounter on the way become.

Chen Jiuge's neat attire and the two teams of cyborgs beside him, dressed in high-end cybernetic gear, attracted countless eyes, both openly and secretly.

"Captain, I have a feeling someone is watching us!"

Lie Guang's prosthetic eyes, which were constantly flashing red, scanned the surroundings and replied, "Be bold, your feeling is right, they have indeed been watching us!"

"Don't be too nervous," Chen Jiuge reassured her.

The outer area is chaotic, but it still maintains a certain level of order. At least they don't commit murders in the street. Of course, if the location were changed to a dark street, things might be different.

The entire outer ring is divided into three rings: inner, middle, and outer. The inner ring is closest to the inner ring. Although the security is not as good as that of the inner ring, it is still relatively stable. Most of the residents there are people with stable and high incomes, mainly skilled professionals such as doctors and weapon refiners.

Of course, some wealthy people or leaders of external forces reside there. They would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Just because they can act arrogantly in the outer circle doesn't mean they can do the same in the inner circle.

The main residents of Central are hunters and ordinary cultivators with higher incomes. Because of the presence of hunters, the security in Central is not very good, and there are many red-light districts. Twilight Dark Star is located here.

As for the outer ring road, that's a real slum. You won't be surprised to see any kind of people there. It's a lawless wasteland, and it's no big deal if a few people die or get injured.

"This is it? It looks pretty good!"

Before long, the group saw the Hundred Beasts Pavilion branch that Yun Congyi had prepared.

It's huge, heavy, and very imposing!

This was everyone's first impression of the pavilion, including Chen Jiuge.

The dark red bloodwood forms a huge pavilion a hundred meters high. The surface of the bloodwood is covered with array patterns that resemble human meridians. Various ferocious beasts are carved on the protruding eaves. The dark gold plaque is inscribed with the three large characters "Hundred Beasts Pavilion".

"This looks much more imposing than headquarters!"

"Maybe the land in the outer ring is cheaper, while the land in the inner ring is incredibly valuable!" Chongwu explained, stroking his chin.

"Makes sense!"

"Alright, stop looking. Let's go inside and take a look first. We'll have plenty of time to look at it later."

The gates of the outer circle of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion were sealed off. Yun Congyi did not recruit or arrange shop staff in the outer circle without authorization. Yun Congyi would not do such a thing as recruiting or arranging shop staff in the current state, as it would easily lead to misunderstandings by Chen Jiuge.

The entire Hundred Beasts Pavilion is divided into three floors. The first floor mainly sells resources produced by ferocious beasts, such as the venom of the Azure Scorpion or the beast cores used by ferocious beasts.

The second floor mainly sells individual ferocious beasts. The array and barrier set up there are quite stable, and at least ferocious beasts below level seven cannot break free and cause harm.

"That's quite a generous gesture!"

After touring the second floor, Chen Jiuge's approval of Yun Congyi increased considerably. Judging from the first two floors alone, the cost of this branch of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion was no small sum, especially considering it was built in just half a month. Yun Congyi must have paid a heavy price alone. The third floor was divided into two areas: a living area for the Hundred Beasts Pavilion's employees, complete with a cultivation chamber, staff canteen, and training grounds—a safe and secure accommodation, a highly desirable perk even in the outer circle.

On the other side were some reception rooms and several exhibition halls, laid out like a small auction, suitable for auctioning some special ferocious beasts.

"The head steward is truly thoughtful!"

What satisfied Chen Jiuge the most was not the environment of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion, but the authority given to her by Yun Congyi. Yun Congyi not only did not arrange any staff for the Hundred Beasts Pavilion, but he also did not assign anyone to supervise her. It is conceivable that Yun Congyi really regarded Chen Jiuge as his last lifeline.

"It's just passing information to Seventh Master, is the consequence really that serious?"

"Is it because of the Yun family's rules that Yunhu mentioned?"

Chen Jiuge had asked Lie Guang about this, but Lie Guang was at most an outermost member of the Yun family. Obviously, let alone the Yun family's rules, it was a question whether he could even come into contact with any of the Yun family members, so naturally he couldn't possibly know.

"Axi, from now on you'll be the manager of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion, is that alright?"

Axi was someone Chen Jiuge brought from Dark Star in Mountain City. Because of Andrew's life-saving grace, he also came along when Andrew decided to come to Twilight City with Chen Jiuge.

Chen Jiuge needs to assign people to keep an eye on the Hundred Beasts Pavilion in the inner circle. Andrew is a good choice. Axi is too inexperienced and not reliable enough. Coming to the outer circle this time is just right. After all, he has stayed in Dark Star. He should be able to deal with the cultivators in the outer circle without any problems.

Axi is actually over fifty years old, but because of his cultivation techniques, he looks like a handsome young man.

Although she was somewhat prepared, Axi's face still flushed slightly after hearing Chen Jiuge's words: "I will absolutely not let you down, sir!"

"Well, I believe you!"

"I'll leave the recruitment of staff for the Hundred Beasts Pavilion to you. I won't interfere in this matter. I'll give you a month!" Chen Jiuge said calmly.

"Mission accomplished, sir!"

"Lieguang, you lead the team and come with me to take a look at the breeding farm that the head steward has prepared for us. You can leave the Hundred Beasts Pavilion to Xuguang!"

"Yes!"

Such an industry as a ferocious beast breeding farm would naturally not be located in a busy urban area, even in the outer ring where the security is extremely poor. Of course, the danger may not be to the residents of the outer ring, but more likely to be to the ferocious beasts in the breeding farm.

Don't be fooled by the low prices of ferocious beasts in the mountain city and think they're worthless. In reality, only those ferocious beasts that have been completely corrupted by the Yellow Springs are worthless.

The ferocious beasts in the Underworld are all devoid of intelligence; this was something Chen Jiuge learned not long after arriving in the mountain city.

However, as time went by, Chen Jiuge gradually realized that the truth was not so.

Especially after arriving in the main city of Twilight, the idea that ferocious beasts have no intelligence is utter nonsense.

Not to mention the supernatural abilities that beast tamers awaken once they break through to level four, as long as the ferocious beasts are kept in a peaceful secret realm, over time, some of the Yellow Spring Qi in the beasts' bodies will be cleansed away. Although it won't make the ferocious beasts the same as spirit beasts, they will at least recover some of their former appearance.

The mountain city does not have the necessary conditions. After all, a secret realm, regardless of its size, is not something that any force in the mountain city can occupy if it is newly discovered.

As for a large merchant guild like the Other Shore Flower, they certainly have secret realms, but the mountain city is too small and too poor; they simply cannot afford genuine spirit beasts.

Most importantly, once a spirit beast leaves the secret realm, it will be corrupted by the omnipresent Yellow Spring Qi if it stays in the outside world for too long without special conditions.

In fact, cultivators are the same, except that each city has a special array to filter out the Yellow Spring Qi. Cultivators can avoid this problem to a large extent by cultivating in the city. As long as there are no problems with cultivation, the contamination of Yellow Spring Qi is nothing.

"Spirit beast."

The thought of the terrifying price of spirit beasts made Chen Jiuge's heart tremble uncontrollably.

Once the Chaos Pearl had fully adapted to the laws of the Yellow Springs Realm and could be used again, Chen Jiuge felt a surge of excitement. There were countless spirit beasts in the Chaos World, which was an astronomical number!

"Sir, we've arrived at the farm!"

"arrive?"

Coming to his senses, Chen Jiuge looked at the large iron gate in front of him. Seeing the dark red rust on the gate, Chen Jiuge's lips twitched involuntarily: "This farm is really simple!"

Lie Guang smiled awkwardly, unsure how to respond. Judging from his appearance, he was indeed rather shabby, and this place was already very close to the edge of the city's great formation. The Yellow Spring Qi would greatly corrupt the ferocious beasts, so it could be said that this place was not suitable for raising ferocious beasts.

If the infection worsens, it will not only affect the price of the beast itself, but also greatly increase the likelihood of it rioting.

Above the iron gate at the entrance of the farm hangs a crooked plaque with fresh characters that shimmer with a dazzling halo in the sunlight.

"Phew, let's go in and take a look. The head steward always knows his limits!"

Before entering the breeding farm, Chen Jiuge still had some expectations in his heart. After all, the establishment of this branch of the Hundred Beasts Pavilion was mainly to accumulate merit before the young lady returned, and to cover up Yun Congyi's mistake of secretly passing on messages to Seventh Master.

However, Chen Jiuge was disappointed; the inside of the farm was even worse than the outside.

Dirty, ferocious beasts scurried about on the overgrown ground, and every few steps you could see some attractive creatures.

This scene made Chen Jiuge's face turn very ugly, and Lie Guang on the side made his disgust open.

"Lie Guang, go check if there are any survivors here!"

"Yes, sir."

The thrusters behind the blazing light, which had been eagerly waiting, were running at full power, and the scarlet prosthetic eye was operating at maximum power, searching for any signs of life in the entire farm.

"What exactly happened?"

Chen Jiuge was somewhat puzzled. The Hundred Beasts Pavilion branch was arranged so well, there was no reason why the breeding farm would be like this!
This is completely unreasonable, unless someone below is acting recklessly!

Thinking of this, Chen Jiuge became restless. He had finally managed to get out of the inner circle and away from the Yun family's sight. He couldn't let some little devils' disobedience lead to an accident; that would be too ridiculous.

Chen Jiuge quickly informed Yun Congyi of what she had seen. To prevent him from disbelieving her, she even went back out and recorded a new video.

"How could this happen? I'll go investigate right now!"

Yun Congyi replied very quickly.

At this moment, Chen Jiuge also saw Lie Guang approaching rapidly with someone.

"How much was budgeted for the farm?!"

"five million."

Putting away his mechanical mind, Chen Jiuge's eyes flashed with anger. Five million yuan to build such a dilapidated breeding farm—they really have guts! (End of Chapter)
