Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 102, Section 101: Working for Chen Fan

"roll!"

Shen Daodao rolled her eyes and turned her head away.

After a moment of surprise, Shen Hongxiu pressed closer, "Xiao Fan, shall I go with you to kill the Blood Petal Flower King?"

Chen Fan looked at Shen Hongxiu, who was almost touching his face, and felt that if he didn't take a few steps back, he would become cross-eyed.

But he didn't back down.

He covered Shen Hongxiu's face with his right hand and pushed her head away: "First, stop calling me Xiaofan. This is only the second time we've met. We're not that close yet."

"Secondly, why do you always like to talk so close to people's faces? Are you very confident that you can flirt with them like this, and that most men can't resist?"

Shen Hongxiu smiled and said, "I have never spoken like this to any other man except you."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Ye Hao and Chu Xuan."

Chen Fan turned to look at Ye Hao and Chu Xuan.

Ye Hao said with a strange expression, "It really is... This is the first time I've ever seen her so intimate with a boy."

Chu Xuan said expressionlessly, "The first time."

"Look..." Shen Hongxiu said with a smile, "If you don't believe Ye Hao, you should at least believe Chu Xuan, right? Chu Xuan doesn't like to lie."

Ye Hao's face immediately fell: "Damn it, do you think I enjoy lying?"

But Shen Hongxiu ignored him and continued to look at Chen Fan, saying, "The reason I'm talking to you like this is because... you have a very strange aura about you that is very attractive to me."

"Let's skip this topic," Chen Fan said, tilting his head. "You're severely injured and half-dead right now, and the level 12 Death Spider King you're carrying is only half alive..."

"What use would I be to you?"

Shen Hongxiu, just like Chen Fan, tilted her head and said, "I have a way to lure out the Blood Petal Flower King for you."

"Without me, you couldn't have killed the Blood Petal Flower King."

"In fact, the three pioneering groups of Donghai City had all tried to take advantage of the Blood Petal Flower King before, but the monster was hiding deep in the Fire Feather Mountain cave and refused to show itself, so the three pioneering groups had no way to deal with it."

"You have a way..." Chen Fan frowned and said, "But you've already used your method once before. Using it again might not be effective, right?"

Shen Hongxiu's lips curled slightly: "At least it's worth a try, isn't it?"

"Take me with you. Even if we fail, you won't lose much."

"What if it succeeds?"

Chen Fan fell silent.

Ye Hao walked over and whispered, "Brother Fan, that Blood Petal Flower King is very special; it's a treasure from head to toe."

"Whether it's its crystal core or its blood, it can help some beasts break through, and it also has miraculous healing effects."

"A level 13 Blood Petal Flower King is much more valuable than many other level 14 or even level 15 monsters."

Chen Fan nodded: "Okay, then come with me."

Shen Hongxiu was overjoyed and rushed over to take Chen Fan's hand, but Chen Fan pushed her away.

Shen Daodao immediately came over: "Then let's hurry up and go, what are you dawdling for?"

Chen Fan was taken aback: "I said I'd bring Shen Hongxiu and the Death Spider Queen, not you... She at least has a level 12 Death Spider Queen, what do you have? A big face?"

Ye Hao laughed heartily.

Shen Daodao winked at Shen Hongxiu, but Shen Hongxiu rolled her eyes, turned her head away, and ignored him completely.

Chen Fan watched as the students of Class 5 worked together to drag the corpse of the Fire Ant, and said with a slight change in expression, "If you insist on coming along, then you can work for me. Take your beast and help me drag monster corpses along the way."

Shen Daodao was taken aback, then flatly refused: "Work for you? I, Shen Daodao, come from the prestigious Shen family of Donghai City. My back is straighter than a steel bar. Would I work for someone like you?"

Chen Fan: "I'll give you two level 9 monster corpses, including their crystal cores."

"Young people shouldn't be so focused on money," Shen Daodao said seriously. "My main goal is to learn something from you."

Ye Hao and Chu Xuan: "..."

Shen Hongxiu: "..."

The group of people around Leng Ruyu looked at him with disdain.

Shen Daodao scoffed coldly: "A bunch of newbies, what do they know? People die for birds..."

He paused abruptly, blinked, and then continued, "People die for wealth, birds die for food!"

Ye Hao said quietly, "I feel that what you said earlier is more correct: people die for birds, and birds die for food."

A group of students from Class 5 burst into laughter.

Shen Daodao's forehead veins bulged: "Get out!"

"What are you laughing at? The candy I've eaten is sweeter than your piss..."

"No, I mean, I've eaten more piss than you've eaten sugar..."

Shen Daodao's face darkened, and he fell silent.

What exactly went wrong?

Why is it that no matter how I say it, it's wrong?

All around was quiet.

Everyone, including Chen Fan, stared wide-eyed at Shen Daodao.

The short-haired girl tugged at Leng Ruyu's clothes: "Class monitor, is this guy really from a prominent family in Donghai City? Has a paternity test been done?"

"You son of a bitch..." Shen Daodao almost broke down.

The short-haired girl immediately hid behind Chen Fan.

Chen Fan glanced at Shen Hongxiu.

Shen Hongxiu smiled slightly: "Xiao Fan, please don't misunderstand. He and I are not siblings. He is my cousin... I will ask my second uncle to do a paternity test when we get back."

"This level of intelligence couldn't possibly belong to the Shen family."

Shen Daodao: "..."

Chen Fan shook his head, then waved to Leng Ruyu and the others.

Leng Ruyu and Zhang Yan and the others walked over.

Chen Fan gently patted Shen Daodao's shoulder and said, "If I remember correctly, you said before that you came to the crater from a shortcut, and that the shortcut was very safe?"

Shen Daodao asked somewhat warily, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Fan pointed at Leng Ruyu and the others and said, "Although I had the Golden Feather Sea Eagle wipe out monster lairs one by one on the way here, that route was a bit roundabout."

"It took them more than two hours to get here, and now that they've loaded up so much 'goods,' it'll probably take even longer."

"Just to be on the safe side, mark that shortcut for them and let them go back that way."

Leng Ruyu and the others were overjoyed.

They had almost forgotten about this!

Shen Daodao wanted to refuse, but after exchanging a glance with Chen Fan, he pouted and opened the map on his smartwatch.

Upon seeing this, Leng Ruyu and the others immediately opened their own maps as well.

Shen Daodao pointed to a location on the map: "Start from here, then here, and then here again..."

As he slid his finger across the map, a curve was fully marked out.

Because Leng Ruyu and her group's map was the same as Shen Daodao's, they copied it and marked the route as well.

The group compared the locations and identified them one by one.

Shen Daodao snorted and said, "This route used to have monsters too, but the Illusionary Sea Pioneer Group cleared it out."

"Even these newbies won't be in danger if they have a level 1 beast tamer."

The slight gratitude that had just arisen among the group of students in Class 5 was shattered by his words "newbie," and many of them glared angrily at Shen Daodao.

Chen Fan said to Leng Ruyu, "Let the Frost Python and the Black Iron Dragon Turtle escort you."

The Frost White Python immediately rushed over, its eyes brimming with tears, and nuzzled Chen Fan's feet with its head.

Following Chen Fan, they ate and drank well every day, and could eat more meat from all kinds of high-level monsters than they could eat.

It had no desire to mingle with these "newbies" from Class 5.

The Black Iron Dragon Turtle didn't react much; it just did whatever Chen Fan said.

Chen Fan patted the head of the Frost White Python: "Go, protect them well, and I'll get you a few level 10 monsters to eat later."

"call!"

The white icy python perked up and raised its head high.

It's only level 5, and the meat of monsters that are only level 10 or so is just too tempting.

The Frost White Python nodded repeatedly and darted out, signaling to the students of Class 5 to let it drag away the Level 9 Skyfire Ants.

The Black Iron Dragon Turtle also quickly ran over.

"Jin Yu, send them away from the crater first, then come back."

Chen Fan waved to the golden gyrfalcon: "We'll wait for you here."

The group of students from Class 5, who had been prepared in advance, immediately started running, dragging the corpses of the fire ants and blood petal flower fairies.

They might not be able to run while carrying a 100-pound stone.

Carrying a hundred pounds of gold, they might be able to fly.

For them, who had only been awakened for a few days, the corpses of these fire ants and blood petal flower demons were more precious than gold.

Chen Fan watched everyone leave, then his gaze fell on Chu Xuan.

Because Chu Xuan stood there like a wooden statue, completely motionless.

Seeing Chen Fan looking over, Chu Xuan said indifferently, "I can also work. Just give me the corpses of four level 9 monsters."

"Damn it!" Shen Daodao was furious. "Why should I? I work for Chen Fan, and he only gives me two level 9 monster corpses. How dare you ask for four? Where do you get the nerve?!"

Ye Hao pointed at Chu Xuan's face and yelled, "Yeah, what right do you have?!"

Chu Xuan looked at Shen Daodao expressionlessly and said, "You're injured, and your beast is injured too. You're no different from a piece of trash."

"But neither I nor my tamed beast were injured."

Ye Hao nodded and looked at Shen Daodao: "He's right!"

Who the hell are you on...? Shen Daodao glared at Ye Hao fiercely, then glanced at Chen Fan with a guilty look.

Chen Fan didn't say much, but walked over to Shen Hongxiu, who was already seated, and asked, "Do you have any methods to lure out the Blood Petal Flower King?"

"And what are the chances of success?"

Shen Hongxiu tilted her head slightly, her big eyes blinking, and said, "Use the meat of the Hack Tree Frog, plus the heart of the Scytheclaw Dragon Beast."

"I used five catties of Hack Tree Frog meat and a piece of the heart of the Scytheclaw Dragon Beast, mixed the two together, and finally lured out the Blood Petal Flower King."

"This is a method I bought at a high price from a master animal breeder in Shanghai."

Shen Daodao pounced on Shen Hongxiu, covering her mouth: "Shen Hongxiu, are you crazy! Saying it now... what if he kicks us aside?"
