Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 478 The Ever-Changing Star Lord
Before Ye Bai could even set off, he received another patrol assignment.

This inspection mission was to have Ye Bai search for the new Big Dipper while also inspecting major cities in Yan Kingdom for signs of corruption, bribery, or collusion with evil gods.

If there is conclusive evidence, it is permissible to act first and report later to deal with corrupt officials.

Ye Bai felt like he had been given the job of an imperial envoy.

However, this is a long-term mission. If he doesn't find all seven stars of the Big Dipper before the war in the Sea God's Abyss, he will have to return early to participate in the battle.

Yan Kingdom has many provinces, and Ye Bai plans to inspect them clockwise, following the directions of east, west, south, and north.

Firstly, take this opportunity to elevate your pet to the next level.

Secondly, it can also be used to collect rare and precious materials.

Thirdly, it could help him find the Dragon Slayer Swords scattered throughout Yan Kingdom. Ye Bai intended to collect ninety-nine Dragon Slayer Swords to elevate the bronze ancient sword to a higher level.

Marshal Huanglong gave Ye Bai a token that could mobilize members of the local pet master guild.

"Also, Ye Bai, if the Twenty-Eight Constellations send out a distress signal while on a mission, and you are nearby, you should participate in the rescue."

I've been assigned yet another task as a firefighter.

Ye Bai was speechless.

I feel like I'm just a brick, you can be moved wherever you're needed.

"I understand."

Facing Marshal Huanglong, Ye Bai did not show any signs of quitting, but silently complained to himself for a while.

"By the way, Ye Bai, after you advance to become one of the Big Dipper stars, your benefits will naturally be different."

"You can go to the breeding center in Yan Kingdom and receive a powerful pet beast. The resources will be about three times what you had when you were one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations."

Ye Bai blinked. When he was one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, he had never received any subsidies. Which treacherous villain had embezzled his subsidies?

Master Jiang suddenly sneezed several times, and he couldn't help but sigh that he was getting old.

"I'm really getting old and useless. I just caught a slight cold and I sneezed several times."

Master Jiang wiped his nose and sighed, unaware that Ye Bai was actually reciting his name.

"I don't know when Ye Bai will go out on patrol. As long as Sunflower Fairy is here at Anbaotang, that's fine."

The Twenty-Eight Constellations were originally set up specifically to patrol various parts of the Yan Kingdom, essentially serving as the deputy to the Twelve Pillars of State.

However, due to the invasion of the Abyss and the Angels, coupled with the instability of the plane, the Twenty-Eight Constellations have been sent to carry out various difficult missions in recent years.

The inspection of Yan Kingdom was naturally delayed, and without supervision, powerful local forces began to grow stronger.

The six marshals naturally did not want the local forces to become too powerful, so they took advantage of Ye Bai's search for the Big Dipper to assign him this task.

The Big Dipper must be filled by people of unwavering character and utterly loyal to the Yan Kingdom.

Therefore, Ye Bai must be trustworthy.

With the great battle at Poseidon's Abyss approaching, the six marshals planned to eliminate unstable factors beforehand.

That's why this important task was entrusted to Ye Bai, in order to prevent some families from switching sides on a righteous ground.

Even if a major purge is carried out later, it will be to no avail.

After all, the damage has already been done.

Ye Bai planned to patrol while his pet beasts cultivated.

As for the first stop, it is Yandong Province, where Ye Bai once studied.

Since Ye Bai's senior uncle Zhang Jian was promoted to become the Horned Wood Dragon, the successor of the Yan Dong Province Pet Beast Guild has been very high-profile, thinking that he has Zhang Jian as his backer.

They even used Zhang Jian's name to do their jobs.

As for Gunshark and Tank, they were relegated to the sidelines.

As soon as Ye Bai arrived in Yandong Province, he sent messages to Gunshark and Tank, wanting to get together with them.

After receiving the message, Gunshark and Tank were naturally extremely happy to welcome Ye Bai's arrival.

When Ye Bai met Gunshark and Tank, he found that they had changed a lot.

The Gunshark has become more charismatic, and the Tank's muscles have become much more muscular.

"Ye Bai, welcome back to Yandong Province. But do you have Zhang Jian's contact information?"

Gunshark said emotionally.

Ye Bai's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he asked calmly, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Gunshark gulped down a bottle of liquor and wiped the foam from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand: "The newly appointed president of the Yandong Province Pet Guild has almost sidelined us."

"He extensively placed his cronies in the Yandong Province Pet Animal Association and was also ambitious and eager for quick success."

"They hoard any good things for themselves, but run far away when faced with a beast tide."

"Moreover, he also claimed to be Zhang Jian's confidant and often acted in Zhang Jian's name."

“Many people listened to him, but since Zhang Jian was promoted, neither of us has been able to contact him.”

"Even if we wanted to tell Zhang Jian this information, we couldn't find anyone to do it."

"If this continues, I'm quitting my job as the vice president of the Pet Beast Guild. I'd rather be a free hunter."

After hearing this, Ye Bai didn't show much expression on his face. Instead, he asked Gun Shark, "Do you have any evidence?"

"Yes, of course we have. You can ask other people. It's not just Tank and me who have been wronged; the presidents of pet guilds in various cities have also been wronged."

“Take Wang Dazhuang, the former president of the Pet Animal Guild in Jiaying City, for example. He was forced to resign by that guy named Zhang Xiaoming.”

"By the way, that bastard Zhang Xiaoming is the current president of the Yandong Province Pet Beast Guild."

"The various unreasonable systems have made the atmosphere of the entire Yandong Province Pet Association very, very bad."

"If it weren't for the fact that the presidents of the pet guilds in various cities held their ground, Yan Dong Province would have been in complete chaos."

Gunshark launched into a tirade.

"I understand, but it seems my senior uncle is currently in seclusion, so you can't contact him for the time being. I will pass on the message for you."

Upon hearing Ye Bai's words, Gunshark and Tank showed expressions of disappointment.

Zhang Jian has gone into seclusion. No wonder they couldn't contact him; they were hoping he could avenge them.

Just as Gunsha was about to continue her rant, her phone rang.

"Hello, it's me, I know."

After answering the phone, Gunshark's expression turned quite grim.

“A gate to the abyss has appeared on the sea not far from Pengcheng.”

“Large numbers of demons similar to Cruise are constantly emerging from the Abyss Gate.”

"That bastard is calling us back for a meeting."

"It's not just us; the presidents of pet guilds in various cities have already been called in."

"I'm going to have to listen to that bastard spout a bunch of nonsense again, about performance and KPIs."

"Please, we're all people who fight and kill, how would we understand these things?"

Gunshark gave Ye Bai an embarrassed look, then left with Tank, whose face was dark with embarrassment.

She didn't notice that beams of light were falling on the tips of Gunshark's hair.

After Gun Shark and the other man left, Ye Bai's face revealed a cold expression.

If this phenomenon is occurring in just one province, Yandong, what about the other provinces?

Yandong Province is considered one of the provinces that Yan Kingdom pays the most attention to.

As a result, the most important department in the province, the Pet Animal Association, actually started implementing KPIs and performance evaluations. Isn't this a joke?
The most important task of the Pet Guild is to fight crime and protect the citizens.

Instead of spouting nonsense about writing reports or creating PPTs.

Is this kind of formalism acceptable?

Ye Bai took out his laptop, typed a few times, and searched for all sorts of dirt on the president of the Pet Beast Guild.

At first, the head of the pet guild was wary of Zhang Jian's influence and dared not act so recklessly.

Over time, when no one could contact Zhang Jian anymore, he became bolder. He planted his cronies everywhere and hid when faced with beast tides.

They even embezzle the compensation money from the pet guild; they're a complete cancer.

"How could Zhang Jian let someone like that occupy this position?"

"Were we misled, or was there some other reason?"

Whatever the reason, Ye Bai will not let this guy go.

He's gathering dirt on this guy, as well as his cronies, planning to take them all down.

Yandong Province Pet Animal Association.

A man with a small mustache sat in the main seat, where he had gathered the presidents of pet guilds from other cities to discuss how to support Pengcheng.

"President, the opening of the Abyss Gate in Pengcheng this time is very strange."

"Moreover, the emerging Crus demons are extremely powerful. They are skilled in using shapeshifting magic, and anyone hit by their curse will instantly turn into an ugly monster."

After hearing the description from others, the man with the mustache shrank back.

He didn't want to become an ugly monster.

boom.

The conference room door was kicked open, and Gunshark and Tank rushed in.

"Why aren't you rushing to Pengcheng's aid? Pengcheng is in dire need of help."

"Any later and they'll be encroaching on the city center."

"Gunshark said angrily."

"Watch your notes and stop making a racket," the man with the mustache said, clearly annoyed, as he saw it as a challenge to his authority.

"President Luo, we need to make a decision as soon as possible, and decide how many support teams to send."

"The beast tides of the past few days have affected all our major cities, and you're suppressing the loss data and not reporting it to higher authorities. Is that appropriate?"

Upon hearing those words, Chairman Luo, also known as the man with the mustache, became completely enraged and slapped the ground with his hand.

"Since you have so many opinions, why don't we give you the position of president?"

Do you understand what strategy is? Do you understand what obedience management is?

“They’re all roughnecks who don’t know anything. I’m just trying to make the data look better.”

Chairman Luo roared loudly, his neck veins bulging and his face flushed red.

"They prioritize performance over people's financial losses."

"President Luo, we cannot agree with your idea."

"Since you think we're just a bunch of roughnecks, then we're leaving the Pet Beast Guild."

The presidents of pet animal associations in various cities and prefectures put forward their requirements.

Chairman Luo's face turned pale instantly.

If so many pet guild leaders were to resign en masse, it would be a very serious incident.

"Oh, I never thought I'd actually witness this farce."

Ye Bai walked out from the corner.

"Who are you? Get out!"

Chairman Luo was furious when he saw strangers enter the meeting room.

However, countless vines suddenly shot out and bound Chairman Luo and his confidants.

"Luo Yi, I remember when my senior uncle was leaving, he recommended Gun Shark to take over his position in the Pet Beast Guild."

"How did it become you?"

"How dare you! You actually dared to tamper with official documents!!!"

Ye Bai found the published document, only to discover that it had been modified.

"who are you?"

Luo Yi's expression changed drastically.

"Special Inspection Team Member, Ye Bai."

Ye Bai took out Marshal Huanglong's token.

When Luo Yi saw the token, he collapsed to the ground.

That's it, the truth has come out, and he will inevitably face imprisonment.

"Ye Bai, what exactly is going on?"

Gunshark was a little confused: "Why am I the new president?"

"But didn't the higher-ups send someone over?"

Gunshark also found it strange that the president of the Pet Beast Guild was not selected internally, but instead transferred from outside.

"Because the people above you are all fakes."

"Am I right? You played the role of the ever-changing emperor of the Sakura Kingdom so well that you fooled everyone."

"You are taking advantage of information asymmetry and giving these people the wrong information."

"At the same time, you and your accomplices forged official documents and hacked into Yan's website."

"There must be a huge organization behind you, otherwise how could they have gotten you to this position so smoothly?"

At this moment, Chairman Luo, also known as the Ever-Changing Star Lord, stood up from the ground.

"Who are you? How do you know my code name?"

Chairman Luo's gaze immediately turned much colder; he was no pushover.

The presidents of pet guilds from various cities looked at each other in bewilderment, realizing that they had been deceived by the Japanese all this time.

If it weren't for Ye Bai's arrival, we would have really been fooled by the Ever-Changing Star Lord.

"It doesn't matter. It still gives me immense pleasure to play with you bunch of fools."

Then, the Hundred Transformations Star Lord suddenly threw out a smoke bomb, trying to leave.

However, he suddenly discovered that the spatial teleportation that had been so easy to do had stopped working.

No matter how he used spatial teleportation, he remained standing still.

"Hey hey hey, what's wrong? The ever-changing star lord of the Sakura Kingdom, how come you're trapped here?"

Ye Bai said with a smile, his eyes full of mockery.

"Who are you?"

The Ever-Changing Star Lord asked sternly.

"Who am I?"

"I'm just an ordinary pet trainer."

"I hate spies like you the most."

The Devouring Pelican appeared in the conference room; it was it that cast a barrier to prevent the Ever-Changing Star Lord from escaping.

Just then, the two confidants of the Hundred Transformations Star Lord suddenly transformed into a flying monster, a headless corpse.

One of his confidants turned into three big heads.

“Flying head, headless corpse, and dancing head.”

"The Flying Head and the Dancing Head are both monsters unique to the Cherry Blossom Country."

Ye Bai chuckled coldly, but at that moment, countless vines shot out and tightly bound these monsters.

A large amount of blinding light then appeared.
