Chapter 1536: I Know a Rumor About a Divine Beast!

But Chen Tianwu clearly wouldn't dig deeper into this issue.

He turned to Su Yang: "General Su, did your small world give birth to a divine beast?"

"Yes!"

Su Yang didn't deny this.

Without a divine beast being born, how could he become a Divine-Rank Beast Tamer?

Could he have captured it in the Beast Tamer Great World?

That was nearly impossible.

In the Beast Tamer Great World, countless Sovereign-Rank Top-Grade Beast Tamers dream of divine beasts' names.

Whenever a divine beast—or even a fierce beast with suspected divine potential—appears, human Beast Tamers scramble to claim it!

Of course, most divine beasts, lacking sufficient strength, dare not venture deep into human-controlled regions.

Human Beast Tamers are the same!

Many adult divine beasts harbor deep hostility toward human Beast Tamers.

To subdue an adult divine beast, both luck and strength are indispensable!

"Sigh!"

Chen Tianwu let out a heavy sigh!

He drained the clear wine in his cup in one gulp.

The scene made Su Yang feel sympathy for him.

If Chen Tianwu reported that his small world had a divine beast to the Babaozhai Society, he'd surely receive a generous reward.

Now that the divine beast was subdued by Su Yang, he had nothing left.

"Brother Chen, why sigh?" Qin Longyun laughed loudly. "We should toast Brother Su! The divine beast countless Beast Tamers in the Great World crave has been subdued by our Brother Su—we must drink!"

"Quick! Fill Brother Chen's cup! Fill it up!"

Qin Longyun was clearly mocking Chen Tianwu.

Chen Tianwu's sorrow made him utterly delighted.

The palace maid hurried to pour wine for Chen Tianwu.

Chen Tianwu, showing due respect, raised his cup, clinked it with Qin Longyun and Su Yang, and drank it down.

Music of silk and bamboo began, and elaborately dressed palace maidens danced gracefully on the white jade courtyard before the pavilion.

Chen Tianwu adjusted his mood slightly and asked: "So, does Your Majesty and General Su permit us to explore the small world?"

Su Yang looked at Qin Longyun, who nodded: "I have no objections, but the people inside the small world are all mine!"

"We just want to gather intelligence on the small world!" Chen Tianwu said. "See if there are any fierce beasts worth acquiring."

Su Yang thought again of the Extinction Phoenix…

Chen Tianwu looked at Su Yang, waiting for his response.

"Fine, but you cannot enter the Federation's territory for now. If you wish to enter, I must ask my superiors."

Chen Tianwu asked curiously: "Are there Beast Tamers stronger than General Su?"

"No."

"Then why doesn't General Su just become Emperor?"

"I prefer cultivation. I prefer strength!" Su Yang smiled. "I don't want to be distracted by other matters."

Chen Tianwu sighed: "So that's it! General Su's achievements aren't accidental!"

Su Yang's explanation made sense to Chen Tianwu.

Many veteran experts from great factions choose to retire and focus solely on strengthening their power.

He just hadn't expected that Su Yang, despite appearing so young, had already grown indifferent to power!

That mindset made him somewhat admire Su Yang.

He was already old, yet still wanted to be transferred back to headquarters…

Though Su Yang was young, he understood life better than he did!

Yet even knowing this truth, Chen Tianwu still couldn't let go.

After all, knowing and doing are entirely different things!

"…"

Su Yang thought for a moment and changed the subject: "But I do have some intelligence… you Babaozhai Society might find it interesting."

"What intelligence?"

Chen Tianwu asked instinctively.

"Of course, about a divine beast!" Su Yang said. "I noticed you seem quite interested in divine beasts."

"About two months ago, before I became a Divine-Rank Beast Tamer, many people above the Huaxia Federation saw a giant flame phoenix!"

"At the time, I was still a Sovereign-Rank Top-Grade Beast Tamer. I looked at that phoenix and felt it was very likely a divine beast!"

"Really?"

Chen Tianwu's eyes lit up.

Qin Longyun put down his wine cup: "General Su, you're not being fair. How come you didn't tell me this?"

Qin Longyun's tone carried genuine resentment.

He also wanted another divine beast!

For that, he had even considered the Yinglong.

If Su Yang had kept this secret to claim the divine beast for himself, he could have accepted it.

But since Su Yang was thinking of selling this information, why didn't he tell him?

If it was news of a divine beast, he was willing to pay the price!

"General Su, where did that flame phoenix go?"

Su Yang smiled without a word.

The two men present were both shrewd.

His smile — Qin Longyun and Chen Tianwu both understood it.

The value of a divine beast went without saying.

Why would Su Yang tell Chen Tianwu the news?

Were they on very good terms?

Chen Tianwu slapped the table and said: "Our Eight Treasures Pavilion is willing to purchase this information."

Su Yang said: "What can you offer!"

"It depends on how accurate General Su's information is!" Chen Tianwu thought for a moment, then said, "If General Su knows the phoenix's exact whereabouts, our Eight Treasures Pavilion is willing to offer twenty Sovereign-Rank Top-Grade fierce beast eggs as the exchange condition!"
