Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 411 New Mission
"raging flames"

Endless flames suddenly crashed down from the sky, slamming into the ground.

Wherever it passed, the devoured demons wailed and turned to ashes.

Their souls were then consumed by the fires of hell.

Ye Bai watched the fleeting glimpse of the ferocious wolf's head, a satisfied expression appearing on his face.

Demons are masters at manipulating souls, but the Netherworld Hell Wolf is the progenitor of soul manipulation.

In the struggle for souls, demons are no match for the Netherworld Wolves.

With the help of numerous demonic souls, the Netherworld Hell Wolf is growing at an extremely rapid pace.

In just a short while, he was promoted from the first level of the seventh rank to the second level of the seventh rank.

Once pets reach the seventh rank, their rate of improvement slows down considerably.

Each level up requires a large amount of resources.

Now, devouring the demon's soul actually saved Ye Bai a lot of effort.

"Blade Demon is a very useful pawn."

"Moreover, they are relatively simple-minded and easy to control."

"I also want to thank Blade Demon for helping me eliminate the enemies here."

Ye Bai watched the demons falling one after another in the sky, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

With the Sunflower Fairy here to keep things in order, the entire Tianzhong City won't descend into chaos.

The Sunflower Fairy's light-attribute skills are like sulfuric acid to demons.

He will get Tianzhong City back on track even faster.

[Tianzhong News: We are reporting that residents of Tianzhong City can receive the protection of sunflowers simply by standing under them. These sunflowers can identify true demons. The entire Pet Guild of Tianzhong City will be conducting a large-scale extermination campaign against demons.]

As the number of demons dwindled, many more went into complete hiding.

They were genuinely afraid.

But even disguised in human skin, the demon could not resist the corrupting influence of the Sunflower Fairy.

The fragrance emitted by the Sunflower Fairy can drive demons into a frenzy.

The Myriad Transformations Butterfly transformed into the form of the Dark Butterfly King, darting through the sky. Every now and then, demons would fall from the sky, turning into countless plumes of black smoke in mid-air.

The spirit of the Candle Dragon is entangled with the Blade Demon, and the seven Myriad Dragon Slashes and a bronze ancient sword are confronting the Ice and Fire Demon Sword in mid-air.

The ghostly wolves of hell are reaping the souls of demons.

Fully armed, Big Grey raised Thor's Axe and slashed fiercely at the ray-like demons.

These demons even had human faces growing on their bodies, making them look quite bizarre.

The Devouring Pelican flapped its wings violently, and countless spatial storms began to distort. All the demons caught in the spatial storms would be torn to pieces by the spatial blades.

The Frost Dragon and the Water Scale Beast are slightly weaker.

They stood guard beside Ye Bai, launching ranged attacks.

The Northern Star Wolf Blade always kills demons unexpectedly and extracts their souls to assimilate them into Qi.

Jingmu Han and Gui Jin Yang are also quite strong.

Their Horcruxes also inflict great damage on demons.

In a remote neighborhood.

A little boy was tying his bed sheet into a knot and throwing it out the window.

His door was already blocked by something.

But he knew that those things in human skin would never let him go.

He watched helplessly as his family members were replaced, and there was nothing he could do.

The boy swallowed hard and struggled to pull the sheets down the drainpipe.

dong dong dong.

"Zhizhang, you're inside. Open the door quickly, Mom has brought you your favorite cake."

The voice was like the whisper of a demon. Li Zhizhang seemed to hear a demon outside the door holding two kitchen knives, sharpening them as if to kill pigs and sheep.

"Come out quickly."

"Come out quickly."

"Bang bang bang."

Why are you locking the door?

"Could it be that they've discovered our true colors?"

"I think so. I should have known better than to pretend."

"You all don't know how painful it is to pretend to be human. You have to pretend to be a loving mother every day. I stopped doing it a long time ago."

A long blade pierced straight through the door.

When they opened the door, there was no one inside. The window was empty except for a knotted bed sheet tied to the bed.

"Hmph, he actually managed to escape."

"I already said, never let these delicate piglets out of your sight."

"But none of you listened, and you even thought that a fearful soul would taste better. See? You've gone too far."

One of the demons, wielding a sharp axe and standing three meters tall, appeared extremely angry.

She had always considered Li Zhizhang her prey, but the prey had escaped.

"Look, he just got downstairs too, let's catch up with him."

Another demon immediately spoke.

"But the Pet Beast Guild of Tianzhong City is exorcising demons. If we are exposed, we may attract powerful pet beast masters."

One of the demons hesitated.

"Do you think that just because Li Zhizhang ran away, he wouldn't attract powerful beast masters?"

"The result is the same; it's just a matter of whether it's exposed early or late."

"After we devoured Li Zhizhang's soul, we left Tianzhong City immediately."

What do you all think of this suggestion?

"We can still leave Tianzhong City freely. If we go to Tianquan City and keep our identities hidden, the disappearance of one or two people each day should not arouse the suspicion of other pet masters."

The other demons discussed among themselves, all agreeing that going to Tianquan City was a good option.

"Then let's go after them."

Li Zhizhang kept running away.

He used all his strength.

However, he was still young and ran out of energy after running for a short while.

He looked at the approaching demon with a dejected expression.

They are still wearing their parents' skin.

"Xiao Zhang, don't run so fast, wait for your parents!"

Those around them thought it was a very heartwarming scene and didn't think much of it.

But Li Zhizhang knew that if he stopped, he would inevitably be torn to pieces.

Just then, a huge sunflower suddenly sprouted from the ground.

Its body emitted light as bright as the sun.

Li Zhizhang quickly entered the area covered by the sunflowers.

He only felt a warm current flowing through his body.

The demon in human skin dared not take a step forward in the face of the light.

Upon seeing the little boy, the sunflower fairy's clone quickly surrounded him with its large leaves.

It looked at the little boy with utmost patience.

The demon disguised as a human hesitated for a long time after seeing the Sun Flower Fairy appear.

Faced with the temptation of delicious food, they finally couldn't resist.

These demons reverted to their original forms: a giant axe demon and a scythe demon.

They all looked at the Sunflower Fairy with ill intent.

"How could a mere light-attribute pet possibly be a match for us?"

"Now, I'll show you just how powerful the devil is."

The Giant Axe Demon and the Scythe Demon charged into the Sunflower Fairy's holy light, and large amounts of black smoke billowed from their bodies.

These little Karami, who were not even at the fifth rank, immediately felt extremely regretful.

But they had already entered the holy light and had no way out. They could only wail as they gradually turned into wisps of black smoke and disappeared.

Ye Bai stayed in Tianzhong City for three whole days.

Only after most of the area had been planted with sunflowers and the demons had been mostly cleared away did he leave Tianzhong City at the call of Marshal Qilin.

Ghost Golden Sheep and Wellwood Falcon will stay here temporarily to appease the animals and also to select a suitable president for the Pet Guild of Tianzhong City.

After Ye Bai returned to the Hall of Fortune, he reported the operation to Marshal Qilin.

"It seems that the plan to spread sunflowers throughout the city can indeed continue."

"Sunflower Fairy can be a powerful tool for monitoring dark-type creatures."

"Ye Bai, if it weren't for your Sunflower Fairy, we wouldn't have been able to find so many demons."

"We should promote the Sunflower Fairy and place Sunflower Fairies at major monitoring locations. This will not only save on manpower costs, but also make some dark creatures nowhere to hide."

"It was through this experience that I discovered that dark creatures were lurking within our territory."

Marshal Qilin was the kind of person who was ruthless and didn't talk much, but he ended up saying a lot to Ye Bai.

"This time, you must have gained more methods for hunting demons in Tianzhong City."

"I have a new task for you."

"The National Phoenix Cup and Young Unicorn Cup are about to begin."

"This time, I hope you can become a supervisor to monitor the problems that arise in the Phoenix Cup and the Young Lin Cup."

"I heard a rumor that in this competition, the necromancer might disguise himself as a student, enter the arena, and seek an opportunity to be reborn. His Necronomicon possesses spells that can bring the dead back to life."

"In addition, the Holy Son of the Resurrection Society may also have taken action."

"It seems to have obtained the Blood Saint's secret technique, which allows it to steal human talents, so I hope you can protect and support this year's Phoenix Cup and Young Qilin Cup."

"I don't know if you can do it?"

Marshal Qilin said with a smile.

This was all a piece of cake for Ye Bai.

But the necromancer seems to be a bit difficult to deal with.

According to the information Ye Bai obtained from the dark web, this guy started looking for a way to break through to the seventh rank three years ago.

Three years have passed, and the necromancer may have already broken through to the eighth rank.

A necromancer with eighth-tier strength cannot be described as an army of thousands.

A single summoning spell was enough to utterly defeat Ye Bai.

After all, too many ants can overwhelm an elephant.

And Ling Shengzi is a veteran powerhouse of the Resurrection Society.

If it weren't for the support of the four elders of the Resurrection Society—Wind, Fire, Water, and Earth—the Holy Spirit Child might have become the leader of the Resurrection Society.

"No problem, am I the only one participating?"

"What about the other twenty-eight constellations?"

Ye Bai remembered that in the previous session, there was a pillar of the nation plus two of the Twenty-Eight Constellations to oversee the event.

It won't be my turn; he'll be the only one left.

"As you can see, no one else can be transferred here; you're the only one."

"So you must protect the safety of those students."

"Ghost Golden Sheep and Well Wood An have reported your strength to me."

"Your abilities are beyond question; we all have great faith in your skills."

"Furthermore, as the supervisor of this competition, you have the right to act first and report later."

"That way, you won't become a lame duck."

Marshal Qilin placed a token in Ye Bai's hand.

The token is silver and has a qilin pattern on it.

"This is my Silver Qilin Token. With this token, all your decisions will be correct."

"You have veto power on the organizing committee. If you feel it's dangerous, the committee's proposal is invalid."

Marshal Qilin granted Ye Bai a great deal of authority.

"Since you trust me so much, then fine, I'll participate in this competition."

"It's just that my identity might need to be adjusted."

"Give me a title like Associate Professor or Professor at Beijing University; it sounds better."

"After all, this is a national competition."

"If I didn't have any title, it would be somewhat inappropriate for me to serve as a supervisor."

Marshal Qilin lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

“What you say makes sense. Here’s what we’ll do: the points you earn from this mission in Tianzhong City will be enough for you to exchange for a professorship at Imperial University.”

"In addition, you do have expertise in pet breeding. After this competition ends, you can go to Imperial University and be in charge of teaching breeding science."

"It just so happens that Professor Di, a professor of pedagogy at the Imperial University, has applied for retirement due to illness after several attempts. You can fill his vacancy."

Marshal Qilin's words made Ye Bai roll his eyes.

That's really enough.

They really treat themselves like cattle and horses, using them as tools at will.

"By the way, regarding the underground laboratory, the research team you recruited will be transformed into a team specializing in the study of demons."

"Apart from the Abyss Egg that you carefully cultivated, the other Abyss Eggs will be used by the researchers for experiments."

"At the same time, Lanfa has been appointed as the director of the underground laboratory, specifically responsible for you and reporting directly to you."

"If you have any ideas, just give the order to Lanfa."

Marshal Qilin knew about the relationship between Ye Bai and Lan Fa.

"By the way, Marshal Qilin, there's something I need to ask you."

"That's where the pet trainers who maintain order will be selected."

"Approximately how many spots are available, and when will these two events begin?"

Marshal Qilin was unaware of the specifics of these two competitions.

"I'm not too sure about that; I can only ask the two chairpersons of the organizing committee."

"This matter is entirely your responsibility."

"If necessary, you can personally oversee the progress of the event. If you encounter any unreasonable arrangements, you can make the decision directly."

Upon hearing Marshal Qilin's description, Ye Bai immediately felt that he had immense power.

He wielded even more power than the former Zhenguozhu.

"Ye Bai, I believe you are a law-abiding person. You will definitely think about problems from the perspective of the contestants."

"I have great confidence in you."

"The Poseidon Abyss is still there, and the beast tides in the country continue."

"And countries like the United States are pressing closer and closer."

"Therefore, we must supervise these two events well, otherwise we will make a fool of ourselves for no reason."

"This is my requirement for you; you must stay calm."

Ye Bai readily agreed, and soon after, an important piece of information fell into his hands.
