After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chapter 168: 148 (Happy New Year)



Taotie then turned its gaze towards another Beast Taming that was entangled and unable to retreat, its eyes cold.

Like a deep-sea overlord scanning its prey.

The remaining Beast Tamer's heart sank as he looked at the Beast Tamer who had surrendered.

A flash of ferocity passed through the depths of his eyes,

Their families were all monitored by the organization; their deaths would only affect themselves.

But if they leaked information, their families would also suffer.

The Silver Bee above his head spat out a golden, sharp blade and shot it out.

Clang—

Taotie shifted its left leg to stand in front of the surrendering Beast Tamer, blocking the strike.

The thick thigh dissipated the golden sharp blade gradually,

Leaving behind a meter-deep, narrow gash.

Taotie looked indifferent, the gash hadn't even completely penetrated its armor.

It took a few steps forward, opened its mouth wide, and directly swallowed the Beast Tamer with the Silver Mask along with his beast.

The terrifying Annihilation Force of the Vortex of Demise wreaked havoc.

The Silver Bee struggled frantically inside Taotie's mouth. Taotie kept its mouth tightly shut, and after nearly half a minute, Taotie opened its mouth and exhaled a mist of blood.

A flicker of wariness crossed Wang Luyuan's eyes.

Just now, his beast and this Silver Bee had been entangled.

Although his beast had caught the opponent, it did not exert an absolute suppression.

Under the opponent's desperate struggle, his beast couldn't easily defeat the opponent in a short time.

Even so, after the opponent and his beast entered the giant crocodile's mouth together, they didn't last half a minute before they were gone.

If it had been my own beast touring inside its mouth, the time it could hold out probably wouldn't be much longer.

And here I am, supposed to protect it. With the crocodile's growth rate, it's more like it should be protecting me...

...

Chen Xing stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking at the mostly empty reservoir in front of him, then turned to glance at a piece of shambles next to him.

That two to three hundred meter-high hill had collapsed a good portion.

The trees and vegetation along the way had been brutally devastated, and the ground was covered in bare scars.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xing couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

How much would this compensation cost?

He turned his head to look at the Beast Tamer behind him, who had already taken off his mask,

Then glanced at the honest-looking middle-aged man next to him.

"You must be the Beast Tamer sent by my mentor to protect me," he said.

"That's me," Wang Luyuan looked honestly simple and straightforward,

He took out an exquisitely carved token with Korean characters on it from his bosom and handed it to Chen Xing.

After Chen Xing took a photo and sent it to his mentor, he asked casually, "Then why haven't I seen you normally?"

Wang Luyuan honestly said, "Didn't they say to protect you covertly? If I appeared before you, it wouldn't be covert anymore."

"So, you made your appearance openly this time," Chen Xing was surprised.

Wang Luyuan coughed, "Because I realized that you seem not to need my protection... and since I've already taken action, hiding in the shadows is pointless."

Chen Xing pondered, this could mean that he might have seen some things.

Of course, from the beginning, his mentor had mentioned that someone would protect him covertly, so Chen Xing was not entirely unprepared.

He had not exhibited anything out of the ordinary.

Wang Luyuan's expression turned solemn as he hastily said, "I haven't told anyone about your daily activities, Miss Han only asked me to protect you, she gave no other orders."

Chen Xing neither agreed nor disagreed, he simply nodded towards a small, standalone one-story house not far away, "You don't need to hide anymore, I've built a separate small house over there, you can just live there openly."

Wang Luyuan was startled by the words and couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed.

Because he sometimes secretly stayed there, he thought it looked a bit like a toolshed, and there was even a bed inside.

Sometimes when it rained, he stayed inside.

Mostly because this was a suburban area, not like the city where he could simply rent a house near Chen Xing's place if it were in the city.

There were no houses for rent around here.

After chatting with Wang Luyuan, Chen Xing turned his gaze to the assassin.

As Chen Xing locked eyes with the assassin, his gaze turned icy cold.

Chen Xing spoke up, "I find it rather dull to always ask assassins who sent them because after all, you're the only one alive, and whatever you say goes."

"Dark Fire sent me," the assassin said without any hesitation.

"You answered so quickly, it's clear you're not from Dark Fire," Chen Xing sighed.

The assassin grew anxious, "I really am a member of Dark Fire!"

"The last killer sent by Dark Fire was a hundred Energy Level Beast Tamer, and this time they only sent you two?" Chen Xing sneered.

Upon hearing this, the assassin was also taken aback, "They sent a hundred Energy Level assassin before?"

If that was the case, why would the organization send him and the other Silver Masked assassin here.

According to the organization's rules, each failed mission should be followed by an assassin of a higher caliber than last time.

Unless the person before wasn't from Dark Fire, or perhaps he himself wasn't from Dark Fire.

But whether he was a killer from Dark Fire, he was certainly clear on that himself.

Damn it, I've become a counterfeit!

The assassin looked at Chen Xing with a wronged expression, "I truly am a killer from Dark Fire, I suspect the person who previously made an attempt on your life might have been impersonating our organization."

With that, the assassin reached into his chest and then took out a mission list.

"This is my mission list, can it prove my identity?"

Wang Luyuan accepted the mission list on behalf of Chen Xing, checked it for issues then handed it to Chen Xing.

Seeing the photo on the mission list, Chen Xing's eyebrows raised, "How did they manage to take such an unflattering photo of me! And they even used the one from my student ID!"

Looking at the black flame symbol of the Dark Fire Organization on the mission list, Chen Xing couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.

The assassin said earnestly, "I'll confess everything, just don't kill me, alright?"

Wang Luyuan mocked, "You're so afraid of death yet you still act as an assassin."

The assassin felt wronged, "I'm an assassin, not a suicide warrior... and I generally only take jobs where the target is weaker than me, I never accept those where the target is stronger."

There was something the assassin didn't say.

I never expected your Beast Taming skills to be so freakishly strong.

He brought two Beast Taming creatures, one eighty-nine Energy Level and one eighty-five Energy Level, to assassinate a high school student.

How could he have expected to find himself in a mess?

And even if he couldn't beat them, he should have been able to escape, right? This is a suburban area, just dive into the vast forest behind here, and who would be able to find him?

Chen Xing thought this assassin was rather... refreshingly simple.

Chen Xing continued to examine the mission list and noticed that it even contained his current residence address.

This was quite interesting.

Since moving here, he hadn't gone out much, so how did the other party know his address? Not many people knew where he lived.

"Then spill everything you know," said Chen Xing casually, "Let's see if there's any useful information, it might just save your life."
