Chapter 97 City Guard

Next, perhaps he couldn't hold back his words, or perhaps it had been too long since he had vented his feelings to someone, or perhaps it was because his grandson was already a beastmaster, in any case, Ye Ruitang began to talk about a lot of things that happened in the past.

There were stories about when he was full of vigor and ambition, when he escaped from assassination, and when he retired from the army and led his brothers to establish a breeding base here...

After hearing this, Ye Mo had a better understanding of his grandfather. He was a completely different person from before. Maybe he was kind and gentle now, but he was more like a fierce and arrogant genius before.

"I tell you, even though that guy is much stronger than me now, as long as I am still in this position, he won't dare to touch me at all." Ye Ruitang talked about Song Mingchen again.

Ye Mo nodded, then thought of something else and interrupted, "Grandpa, something else happened to me in the secret realm. What should I do?"

Hmm? Ye Ruitang was taken aback when he heard this. He then nodded.

After organizing his words, Ye Mo spoke carefully, "Um, did you know that the son of a king-level beastmaster died in this secret realm?"

Ye Ruitang raised his eyebrows and nodded, "I know. It was Zhou Hualong's youngest son from the neighboring Yulin City. I think his name was Zhou Tianxiang. He had a spirit pet that commanded a race, but he died in the secret realm. It can only be said that he was extremely unlucky."

Unlucky? Meeting me was indeed unlucky. Thinking of this, Ye Mo said seriously, "I actually killed that man. He was one of the people who was arranged to kill me. I had no choice. I didn't want to die, so I killed him."

Wait, that Zhou Tianxiang is dead? Did you kill him because he wanted to? Who on earth has this Commander-level spirit pet? Even Ye Ruitang was stunned for a moment when he heard this news.

However, he actually arranged for such a powerful person to assassinate his grandson. Thinking of this, Ye Ruitang couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Let's not talk about how you killed him. You should be the only one who knows about this. Haven't you been discovered?"

Facing the question, Ye Mo nodded and said, "I handled it very cleanly. There were no other people or monsters nearby. I also took care of the Yin-Yang Blood Stone. So far, it seems that no one has been discovered."

Hearing this, Ye Ruitang breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was the other party who assassinated him, his father was Zhou Hualong. Maybe his strength was just that of a novice king, but with his personality, he might even do something like assassination himself.

"It's good that we haven't been discovered. Let's just keep this a secret. In the extraordinary world, strength is the most important thing after all. The other party is strong, so this is the only way."

After finishing his story, Ye Mo looked at Ye Ruitang and asked curiously, "Okay, then, Grandpa, how have you been these days? Didn't you take your spirit pet for special training before? How were the results?"

Ye Ruitang laughed out loud, a rare outburst of laughter, and said, "Hahaha, the evolution method you mentioned is indeed useful. This time, I really gained a lot."

"Not only has the Tyrant evolved, but he has also awakened and mastered his domain. Now, if I bring those violent bears with me, even a King-level warrior will be able to fight."

Hearing this, Ye Mo's mood instantly became excited, and he began to speak: "Grandpa, since you are so powerful now, the position of the chief of Linghu District is stable."

As long as this position remains, the family will not only be more financially well-off but also safer.

Looking at his grandson's smiling face, Ye Ruitang shook his head and said confidently, "What's the point of being the chief of Linghu District? Now I'm going to fight for the position of the governor of Beihan City."

Huh? Beihan City Guardian? Hearing this name, Ye Mo was stunned. Although Beihan City was only a third-tier base city, it still had a population of millions. To become Beihan City Guardian and manage these millions, one would need sufficient strength and qualifications. The living room lights continued to glow, but seemed much brighter than before. Ye Ruitang took a cup of tea from the contract space, swallowed it in one gulp, and said with a smile, "This time, the secret realm has caused such a huge problem. As the guardian of Beihan City, the Beihan City Guardian is to blame and will most likely be removed. At that time, the selection of a new Guardian will begin."

"I've been working in Linghu District for over thirty years. In terms of experience, there are still a few who can compare to me. In terms of strength, I've now reached the level of a king, which is considered qualified."

"After the Beihan City Guard is dismissed, I will personally go to Bingdu and submit my application to the Beizhou Guard Hall."

According to past practice, when both the strength and qualifications are met, locals will be given priority in selecting the city guard. He has lived here for more than 30 years and is definitely considered a local. In addition, he is qualified in other aspects, so there is indeed a high probability that he will get this position.

That's why he is so confident.

"That Song Mingchen is probably still waiting for me to lose my position as the chief of Linghu District. Humph, he still thinks I don't know that Liu Jirong from the Snow Leopard Breeding Base is trying to compete with me for the position. It's probably his doing."

"Now that I'm stronger, I don't have to use the methods I prepared before. When the time comes, I'll lose my position as the chief of Linghu District, but become the guardian of Beihan City. I really want to see their expressions then, hahahaha."

Seeing his grandfather's smug look, Ye Mo smiled as well. He was a little worried when he heard his grandfather say that there was an enemy who was keeping a close eye on their family, but now he felt much more relieved.

Becoming the guardian of Beihan City not only brings him a lot of resources, but this position alone will also make his grandfather and him safer.

After laughing, Ye Ruitang used his mental power to look towards the sofa, where Bai Ling was secretly eating the extracted gold essence, and her white hair moved with it.

"Is that your new contracted pet?"

Ye Mo nodded, glanced in the direction of Bai Ling, and said, "Yes, I made a contract with it in the secret realm. Its name is Bai Ling."

Although the white kitten was only of elite level, Ye Ruitang, knowing that his grandson could see the potential of the spirit pet, would not say anything. After thinking about it, he took out a two-centimeter-long gray-black metal block with small lines on it from the contract space.

"Since we've signed the contract, take good care of it. This is a fourth-level dark-patterned iron essence. I found it in the lair of a commander-level monster after I killed it. A gold-attributed spirit pet carrying this can continuously absorb power from the iron essence, forming a protective barrier on its body. Consider it a welcome gift from me."

After receiving the item, Ye Mo's eyes widened and he said, "Grandpa, what about my silly welcome gift? You wouldn't withhold it just because it was born in our breeding base, would you?"

Smiling, Ye Ruitang shook his head and said, "It's a violent bear. Don't I know what a violent bear needs? Don't worry, I have already prepared something for it, but it's not ready yet. You need to wait for a while."

Ye Mo nodded and asked with a smile, "Um, Grandpa, I have quite a few gains in the secret realm. Can you help me process them? And by the way, I can use these to exchange for some things I want."

The harvest from the secret realm? You can't take things out of the secret realm? Could it be the things that the assassin took with him? After thinking about it, Ye Ruitang said casually: "Okay, take the things out, I can deal with them together. If you want to exchange them for money or other things, just tell me."

There probably aren’t many things left, so I should first see what my grandson needs. If there is not enough, I can make up for it, Ye Ruitang thought secretly in his heart.
