You were given the ability to tame beasts, not to become a god-level breeder.

Fu Diantang, whose real name is Fu Changsheng.

One of the nine existing Hall of Fame members, ranked ninth.

In Zhuang Zhenyu's words, this old codger has benefited from the opening of the Beast Taming Era.

As we all know, when a new era and new technology first emerge, it is a thriving blue ocean where money is everywhere.

The benefits of the Beast Taming Era include abundant resources and unexplored evolutionary paths for beast taming.

of course.

Fu Changsheng is quite skilled in cultivation.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to obtain a Hall of Fame rating.

Fu Changsheng is very skilled in healing and making longevity-promoting items and medicines.

"Master said that Fu Changsheng wasn't like this before."

"In the past, Master respected Fu Changsheng very much, even though in Master's eyes, his nurturing ability had a strength that other Hall-level experts could not reach."

"But he's too old, so old that he's afraid of dying. For this reason, Fu Changsheng secretly collaborated with people from other lands, including but not limited to inhumane human experiments. In other words, there was no evidence. Otherwise, my master would have come to kill this old codger long ago."

Zhu Huoyan seemed to have thought of something, and blood vessels appeared in the whites of his eyes.

"So that's how it is."

Jiang Fan nodded.

Calling a legendary figure "old codger" is simply disrespectful.

But what Fu Changsheng did was indeed something that those in the know called an old codger.

An old person who doesn't die is considered a demon.

Fu Changsheng was ninety years old at the time of the Sky Scar incident.

Thanks to the resources that emerged after the Tianzhihen incident, which grant longevity, he has lived to be 170 years old this year.

Beastmasters cannot increase their lifespan by leveling up; this has been confirmed by unparalleled beastmasters.

and so.

Fu Changsheng then set his sights on the God rank.

The true divine beings who appeared were the Lotus Fairy and the three evil beasts.

and so.

Fu Changsheng naturally set his sights on Jiang Fan and the Lotus Fairy, hoping to obtain the secrets of the God Rank or information about the Lotus Fairy.

People are not static.

When we were little, we wished we could grow up quickly; now that we're grown up, we wish we had a time machine to go back to the past.

When the era of Beast Taming began, Fu Changsheng made significant contributions to the Great Xia Kingdom, the breeding industry, and especially to the field of healing, involving Beast Taming, skills, resources, and items.

As people live, they change.

"Fu Changsheng, Fu Changsheng, do you want to live forever?"

Jiang Fan silently recited these words in his heart, while feeling a warm current flowing through his heart as he stood up for Ji Gui against Fu Rui.

It wasn't in vain that I left the Lotus Divine Realm before fulfilling my contract with the Lotus Fairy.

If Fu Rui were to take him away, what would a Hall of Fame-level figure do to him, given his desire to obtain the secrets of the God-level, the Lotus Fairy, and to collaborate with aliens on human experiments?

Jiang Fan didn't even need to think about it; he knew he wouldn't be well taken care of, and his fate would only be worse than death.

Just then, a strong, elderly voice suddenly came from outside the window.

"Master is here!"

"Wow, why is Li Diaantang's left cheek so red and puffed up?"

Upon hearing the noise, Zhu Huoyan immediately ran to the window.

"Senior Brother Fang, could you please help me across?"

Jiang Fan wanted to go and take a look, but he was too weak to do so, so he had to ask Fang Cunxing for help.

Through the window, one can clearly see the current situation.

Centered on Ji Gui and Fu Rui, there was no one within a hundred-meter radius. Within that hundred-meter radius were groups of beast tamers blocking their way, as well as other beast tamers holding various shields, walls, and other defensive items.

At the edge, a two-meter-high black crack tore through space.

Zhuang Zhenyu, dressed in a clean black Zhongshan suit, and Li Gou, dressed in tattered clothes, came out from inside. At this moment, Li Gou looked like an old man who collected scraps, and there was indeed a bulging palm print on his left cheek, just as his senior brother Tyrannosaurus God had said.

No matter how Jiang Fan looked at it, he felt that the handprint on Li Diaantang's face matched his master's right hand perfectly.

The appearance of Zhuang Zhenyu and Li Gou, two hall-of-fame figures, immediately caused an uproar among the crowd.

Fu Rui's expression changed, and he used a contract to make the wooden dragon-headed lizard, which was about to attack, immediately stop all its actions.

He could sense that there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching him from all around. If he made the slightest move, he and the wooden dragon-headed lizard would die instantly before the lizard could even launch its attack.

"Master, Li Diantang," Ji Gui called out.

Zhuang Zhenyu first looked Ji Gui up and down, then looked at Ji Gui's other tamed beasts to make sure there were no wounds or abnormalities before nodding.

"Palace Master Zhuang, Palace Master Li."

Fu Rui spoke cautiously.

"You have no manners! Did I ask you to speak? Why did you have to!"

"Go, apprentice, and slap him twice."

Zhuang Zhenyu glared at Fu Rui and pointed at Ji Gui.

clap clap!

Ji Gui walked over and opened his bow with both hands.

The left palm is stronger, and the right palm is stronger.

The blow left Fu Rui dizzy and his cheeks bulging.

Fu Rui touched his numb cheek, daring not to speak out in anger.

"Hmph, let's just leave it at that."

"Go back and tell your master that when it's time for a person to die, they should die honestly so as not to make things difficult for others."

"Before the era of beast taming, some emperors could have been remembered for their good deeds and be celebrated by the world if they had died earlier. But those emperors did not want to relinquish power or die, which ultimately led to turmoil in the court and countless man-made disasters."

Zhuang Zhenyu said coldly.

Without solid evidence, he could not kill Fu Changsheng's disciple in full view of everyone.

Fu Rui opened his mouth for half a second, then closed it again, nodding stiffly with his neck.

"Not going to speak? You're disrespecting me?"

"Go, slap him twice more, to teach him a lesson."

Zhuang Zhenyu said.

"Yes." Ji Gui, who had just returned to his original position, walked towards Fu Rui again.

With two sharp blows to his sinuses, Fu Rui was left dizzy and disoriented, his nose bleeding profusely.

Fu Rui couldn't stand it any longer. He opened his mouth and whimpered as he flipped over and sat on the wooden dragon-headed lizard, running away into the distance.

"Fu Rui, you have violated the City Beast Management Act. You have three days to go to the Hualien County Enforcement Bureau to pay the fine and write a letter of apology. Do you hear me?!"

Upon realizing this, Ji Gui spoke righteously and loudly.

"Whoa!"

Fu Rui, whose cheeks were swollen from being slapped, couldn't understand a word he was saying.

"They've all left; there's nothing to see here."

Zhuang Zhenyu waved to the crowd.

No one listened to Ji Gui, but no one dared to disobey Zhuang Zhenyu.

Soon everyone dispersed and left the neighborhood.

Ji Gui led Zhuang Zhenyu and Li Gou to the second floor. They saw that Jiang Fan had already woken up. Zhuang Zhenyu took out seven or eight instruments and props from his treasure bag. He drew blood, scanned, and used props to finally determine that Jiang Fan had only overexerted his soul power and had not suffered any injuries. Only then did Zhuang Zhenyu breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why did you faint? Is it related to the Lotus Fairy Pool, or the Lotus Fairy?"

Zhuang Zhenyu helped Jiang Fan back to bed, covered him with the blanket, and then spoke.

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan looked at Li Gou, who had now reverted to the meticulous old man in his ID photo, with white hair and a face full of wrinkles.

"He's one of us, so feel free to speak."

Zhuang Zhenyu's breathing was somewhat disordered, and his eyes were filled with expectation.
