The Strongest Knight

Under the hazy night.

Tang Long, who came out of the underground boxing ring, changed into a high-collared black windbreaker that covered half of his face.

He put his hands in his jacket pockets and walked towards Fengyuan Central Hospital at a steady pace.

His expression was calm, and even though he had just experienced a life-and-death incident, he didn't seem to take it too seriously.

Or rather, he had experienced enough.

"This is a true strong man." In the night sky, Gray flapped his wings and said in his heart.

Zuo Qiu was hit by dozens of bullets and was seriously injured. After sending Zuo Qiu to the casino, the people there arranged for Zuo Qiu to receive treatment.

Through the soul beast contract, Gray obtained the memory from Zuo Qiu and knew the whole process.

The character Tang Long appeared in Gray's eyes.

This guy might be a good candidate for signing a contract.

After making sure that there was no one around, Gray fell from the air and appeared directly in front of Tang Long.

"Zuo Qiu?" Tang Long frowned when he saw the black bird of prey and looked around.

"Don't look at it. I came here to see you alone." Gray spoke directly.

Even though Tang Long was calm, he was still startled by a bird of prey that spoke.

"Aren't you... Zuo Qiu's soul beast?" Tang Long said carefully.

"If we have to be serious, to be precise, Zuo Qiu is my soul beast, but I prefer to call him a symbiont, a partner for common progress." Gray said.

"Then, let me ask you now, are you willing to be my symbiote? My goal is to reach the top of this world." Gray stared straight at Tang Long with his round eyes, making the latter feel goose bumps. This was really a bird of prey speaking.

"But I don't have the talent to be a beast tamer." Tang Long shook his head regretfully.

"I can take care of this. You just need to prepare the soul beast contract." Gray said.

"I want to become stronger, but I can't take risks, you know, my sister is lying in the hospital now, waiting for me to pay for her medical treatment." Tang Long said.

His training in ancient martial arts has reached its limit, and becoming a beast tamer is his next step.

As a guy with a strong soul, Tang Long was obviously moved.

"Don't take the risk." Gray shook his head.

"Let's do this. You stay in the ring and wait for an opportunity to join Fudi's school..."

A few minutes later, Gray turned into a black shadow, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the night.

"Generally, only gold-level beastmasters can sign a second soul beast."

"As for me, I feel that I can still sign contracts with more soul beasts. Now that I have the strength, it would be a good choice to find a few more guys who are easy to control to sign contracts with, and then rely on the contracts to improve my strength."

"Tang Long should have no problem here. If nothing unexpected happens, we can sign the contract tomorrow."

"Tang Long is quite strong. If we give him some body-tempering potions, he might be able to complete his soul transformation..."

Gray leaves and returns to the casino.

On the street, Tang Long straightened his collar and continued walking towards the Central Hospital.

He was still a little hesitant.

Before he knew it, Tang Long arrived in front of the ward.

Patients with leukemia need a good environment, so Tang Long's sister Tang Xinyu is in a separate ward.

"Brother, are you here?"

As soon as Tang Long entered the ward, he heard Tang Xinyu's voice.

She could always recognize Tang Long's footsteps.

"How are you? Are you feeling better today?" Tang Long took a breath, put on a warm smile, and came to the bedside.

Tang Xinyu is eight years younger than Tang Long and is only sixteen years old this year.

There was no trace of blood on her face, but her hair, eyebrows, and nails were surprisingly black, a rich inky black color with a faint scent of illness.

Tang Xinyu has been living in the Central Hospital for two years since she was diagnosed with leukemia at the age of fourteen.

Just when she was about to calculate it carefully, she realized that Tang Xinyu's unexpected expenses might have already exceeded one million.

Tang Xinyu didn't ask where the money came from, but she knew in her heart that it must have been earned by her brother's life.

She advised her brother to give up countless times, but Tang Long's unwavering determination infected her, gradually changing her mind and she has persisted until now.

"The doctor said that my condition is improving. According to the best prediction, after a few more blood transfusions, when the black blood factor is under control, I can go home. I just need to come to the council for regular checkups!"

Tang Xinyu looked very happy.

Tang Long smiled and nodded. He had known about this news for a long time. In cooperation with Tang Xinyu, Tang Long said, "Then you should work harder! When you are about to be discharged from the hospital, I will find a good house and we will move in together!"

"Great! I like the house by the river!" Tang Xinyu showed a bright smile on her pale face.

Tang Long felt very satisfied looking at his sister's smile.

Everything in the underground boxing ring is worth it.

The record of twenty-six wins was not achieved overnight.

This record was achieved through countless breakthroughs at life-and-death moments.

It can be said that Tang Long’s current achievements in ancient martial arts were all achieved through hard work.

After a pause, Tang Long said, "Xinyu, there is something I want to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Tang Xinyu blinked.

"I have a chance, maybe I can become a beast tamer, but it may require taking some risks." Tang Long said bluntly.

Before their parents got into trouble, Tang Long and his sister were both children of wealthy Dongyi merchants, so they were familiar with the profession of beast tamer.

Tang Xinyu certainly knew that she and her brother were ordinary people without the talent to be beastmasters.

But at this time, Tang Xinyu did not ask Tang Long how to solve the talent problem.

She believed that since her brother had brought up the issue, there must be a way to solve it.

"Brother! I fully agree!"

"In fact, I have always hoped that I could become a beastmaster. Well, it would be best if I could find a flying soul beast! That way I can soar freely in the sky~"

"Brother, didn't you always clamor to become a beast tamer when you were a child? Don't be afraid of taking risks. Is there anything more terrifying than the Black Death that I have now?" Tang Xinyu stretched out her ink-black nails and shook them.

Tang Long's eyes turned red with heartache.

"I know what to do, Xinyu. Come, let me peel an apple for you." Tang Long sat down at the head of the bed.

"Okay." Tang Xinyu took the initiative to pick a big red apple and handed it to Tang Long.

......

In another private hospital under Charles.

"Cough cough." Zuo Qiu coughed dryly and woke up slowly.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar face.

"Director Roy?"

"Oh, not bad. You recognized me. I thought you were shot in the head. If you're not dead, you're mentally disabled." Roy said with a relaxed expression.

Zuo Qiu struggled to get up and looked at the glass beside him. In his reflection, he saw himself wrapped in bandages all over his body, with the back of his head wrapped tightly.

"Don't worry, you did a good job this time, the owner will not treat you unfairly."
