Chapter 541: Weren't You Here to Take on a Disciple? How Did It Turn into Taking on a Master?

"This is 'a little bit'?" "This is a hundred million little bits, right?" After arriving at Holy Dragon Village!

Shen Wu was completely dumbfounded.

The phantom beasts inside this village were far more than just a little bit.

Hundreds, even thousands.

And basically all of them had reached Diamond rank.

Only a few were Platinum rank.

And at this moment he noticed.

The contract marks on those phantom beasts were identical.

A single beast-tamer able to contract so many phantom beasts, and to cultivate them all to Diamond rank — what kind of expense would that require?

And among them were no shortage of phantom beasts with rare, powerful bloodlines. "What's going on? Why didn't the investigation mention any of this!" Shen Wu was both astonished and a little angry.

Such important intelligence.

Had actually not been in the dossier.

In truth!

This wasn't the investigators' fault.

The phantom beasts of Holy Dragon Village.

Had steady, composed auras.

Ordinary beast-tamers couldn't sense them.

And many of the phantom beasts were extremely rare species.

For example, the Broom Deity.

Most beast-tamers couldn't even recognize them.

So the people who came to investigate simply never recognized them at all.

When he saw so many phantom beasts in the village.

He merely assumed those Broom Deities were ordinary Broom Monsters.

The Smiling Scarecrow was just the most common kind of scarecrow.

People in the village did indeed use them to drive away birds.

This was what caused the gap in information.

"So you're saying the master of Holy Dragon Dojo is the inheritor of your Beast God?" "That's right, Xiao Xuan is a beast-tamer with extraordinary aptitude!"

"I heard the youngsters who went out and came back are all extremely respectful to Xiao Xuan!" "He's a peerless genius!" On the village road of Holy Dragon Village.

A person was chatting with Shen Wu.

And Shen Wu's heart was shaken beyond measure. "Beast God!"

"A powerhouse from a thousand years ago!" "The one who contracted the Holy Dragon!" "Wait!"

Suddenly Shen Wu seemed to think of something, his pupils dilating.

Beads of sweat kept pouring from his forehead.

"That day, among the three giant dragons that appeared in Jinchuan City, wasn't there a holy, pure-white giant dragon!" "Could that be the legendary Light Holy Dragon, which can heal everything and dispel everything?" "Beast God?"

"Could Chen Xuan be the Beast God?" "A powerhouse from a thousand years ago!"

"Possessing over a hundred Diamond-rank phantom beasts!"

"A beast-tamer like that — his beast-commanding power must be immensely strong!"

"Then there's only one answer!"

"He's a King-rank beast-tamer, or even higher!" Thinking of this!

Shen Wu's expression.

Shifted from shock to delight.

"A King-rank powerhouse, or even higher!" "If I could take him as my master!"

"With his guidance, wouldn't I also have a chance to advance to King?" At this moment!

Shen Wu's eyes lit up.

His original purpose of coming to take on a disciple.

Had turned into taking on a master.

"That's right, this senior Chen Xuan must be the powerhouse from a thousand years ago, the Beast God!" "I won't guess wrong!"

"Hahaha, I never thought that coming here personally, I, Shen Wu, would discover such an enormous secret!" "No, I must keep it confidential!" "Senior Chen Xuan has been hiding here for so long!" "Even posing as an inheritor!" "Clearly he doesn't want to attract too much trouble!" "I need to keep a low profile!" "In any case, taking him as my master comes first!"

Shen Wu, his face full of excitement, took his leave of the villager from before — under the latter's bewildered gaze.

Shen Wu, his face brimming with eagerness, headed toward Holy Dragon Dojo. "That kid's eyes look a bit off!" "Has he lost his mind?" Shaking his head, the villager paid it no mind.

In any case, the village had Chen Xuan.

Had the Beast God guarding it.

And so many phantom beasts protecting it.

They felt utterly at ease.

This was a kind of absolute trust.

"Old Xie!"
