Chapter 453: Righteousness

Zhang Tang's arrogant appearance after his promotion made the slave deer-girl behind him even more desperate and fearful.

Suddenly, Zhang Tang turned his head and saw the deer-girl's desperate eyes; anger surged into his heart in an instant.

He stepped forward, grabbed her neck with his palm, and stared at her fixedly, saying.

"Why are you showing this expression? Are you not happy? Shouldn't you be happy?"

"Are you not joyful for your master's achievement?!"

The deer-girl was so scared that her whole body trembled; she hurriedly forced a smile.

"I... I'm sorry, Master!"

"I am very happy, really very happy; for you to have such an achievement, you must have long since left other peers behind!"

"I am also proud of you!"

She said in a childish voice, almost with a sobbing tone.

"Actually, you might not know!"

"Even though we demi-humans awaken earlier, there are very few people who reach the Fourth Turn at your age."

She was telling the truth.

Moreover, having experienced so many years of abuse, she had long since learned the skill of fawning.

"So, whether among humans or demi-humans, you are the most talented person I have ever seen." She said, revealing a forced smile.

Hearing this, Zhang Tang frowned slightly, then suddenly brightened up and revealed a faint smile.

"Hehe, that's right."

"I brought you here to invite you to be a small audience."

"I want you to see with your own eyes my dashing and heroic posture as I suppress and kill the enemy; after we go back, you will repeat it to me all night, without missing a word."

"Understand?" Zhang Tang said with a smile.

That smile was very kind.

But only the deer-girl, who was personally in close proximity, could feel the cruelty hidden in those eyes.

"Yes... yes! Master, I understand!"

She was extremely nervous and said hurriedly.

She had been captured by humans as a slave since she was ten, and now she was sixteen.

Six whole years had passed, and she had changed countless masters...

But she had never seen one who made her so fearful.

Other masters mostly just bought her to use as a tool, either making her clean the house or making her warm the bed.

They wouldn't crazily abuse her or intimidate her.

But Zhang Tang made her unable to fathom him; this situation was the most terrifying.

Zhang Tang released her, his face returning to calm, and asked Meng Qingtian.

"Old Qing, has that person's location been found?"

Meng Qingtian's expression was calm, and he said slowly.

"There are seven experts from our family in this dungeon, all of whom are Fourth-Turn experts."

"I have already contacted all of them."

"One of them is a detector; he has no combat ability. His only ability is to find enemies and search for clues."

"He can be called our family's hound."

"They were originally in this dungeon to find hidden ruins and add some loot to the family treasury."

"But after I passed down your order, they have now all changed to prioritizing finding that person."

"This dungeon is not big; they should be able to find him very soon."

Meng Qingtian said slowly.

"Good, I want to kill him with my own hands; I want to lift his hood and see who that person really is!"

Zhang Tang clenched his fists, killing intent condensing in his eyes.

At this moment, a white shadow suddenly flashed by in the distance.

"Hmm? What is that?"

Zhang Tang asked, his eyes somewhat surprised.

Meng Qingtian's expression tightened, a few glimmers of vigilance flashing within.

His mission was to protect the Young Master's safety.

If the Young Master suffered any harm, his outcome would not be very good.

So he immediately raised his hand and clenched it, condensing a profound ice barrier, protecting Zhang Tang 360 degrees inside.

Whoosh!

Immediately after, a giant snow ferret swept past from the distance and darted over!

Riding on the back of that snow ferret was a girl in white.

Her expression was solemn, staring fixedly at the little demi-human slave.

Her snow ferret was huge, a full person's height tall, its whole body covered in white fur, moving extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning.

It swept past, caught the slave deer-girl in its mouth, and fled, kicking up a gust of wind!

"Is she... that white-clad beast tamer from the auction house?"

Zhang Tang recognized her at a glance; this girl had debated against all the scholars at the auction house at that time, almost becoming a public enemy.

"Dare to snatch Zhang Tang's things?"

He grinned hideously, directly took out his warhammer, and smashed Meng Qingtian's profound ice barrier defense from the inside.

The protection Meng Qingtian gave him only defended against external attacks, not internal breaking, so it was easily broken.

After all, he could not restrict the Young Master's freedom. ===== CHAPTER 455 =====
