Chapter 1712: You're Just a Bit Too Old!

"This time, you take Yun Shuying with you." Elder Long said seriously. "You, and your disciple, plus Yun Shuying and Yun Tianyin—four God-Rank beast tamers. The manpower is definitely enough."

"Shenlongshang Alliance versus the Yunguofen Alliance?"

"As long as Ling Elder and I, along with the Grand Elder and the President, my lord, show ourselves, they should!"

"You're estimating you can lure them into a trap? Will they fall for it?"

Elder Long said meaningfully, "If they don't fall for it, given your speed, you should be able to get back quickly too."

Su Yang rubbed his nose.

He naturally understood the meaning behind Elder Long's words.

Yun Shuying asked in confusion, "Elder Long, I keep feeling like you two are playing some kind of riddle game?"

Elder Long laughed and asked, "Chen Feng, should we tell Yun Shuying?"

Su Yang asked casually, "You've investigated it?"

This intelligence—he had deliberately leaked it to the Babaozhai Society's president last time.

Still, he put on a show and asked a question.

That president of Babaozhai probably wouldn't admit that during their last conversation, he had used a lie-detecting ability.

Coincidentally, Su Yang also didn't want Babaozhai to know the reason he had detected the president's underhanded tricks in advance.

The two sides had reached a tacit understanding without realizing it.

"We really did investigate it!" Elder Long laughed heartily. "Chen Feng, you mustn't underestimate our Babaozhai's affairs."

Su Yang said generously, "It should be fine to tell Elder Yun, right!"

"What exactly are you hiding from me?"

Yun Shuying was getting a bit frantic.

Their conversation seemed to involve her, yet they refused to say it outright.

It left her completely baffled—utterly miserable!

"Do you still remember the last time you were hunted by Ling Elder of the Shenlongshang Alliance?" Seeing Su Yang agree, Elder Long said with a smile, "When you came back, you even said that if you ran into him next time to settle the life-and-death debt, you'd have to thank him properly…"

"It was you?"

Yun Shuying was completely dumbfounded!

"Yes, it was me!"

"You're actually not dead?"

"Damn it, it wasn't me!"

Yun Shuying sucked in a cold breath: "In other words, you killed Ling Elder?"

"His strength was a bit lacking!"

"Aren't you a God-Rank Low-Grade beast tamer?" Yun Shuying still couldn't believe it. "How could you kill that Ling Elder? He's a God-Rank Mid-Grade beast tamer of the Shenlongshang Alliance!"

"You can't do it doesn't mean I can't!"

Su Yang said softly.

With just that one sentence, he left Yun Shuying speechless.

Elder Long laughed, "Elder Yun, I've told you before—even among God-Rank Low-Grade beast tamers, there's a world of difference in strength. Chen Feng's strength is in a class of his own among God-Rank Low-Grade beast tamers!"

"Fine!" Yun Shuying looked at Su Yang with complicated eyes. "Thank you. If it weren't for you, I should already be dead."

These words of thanks came straight from the heart, from the depths of her soul.

"You're welcome. I have a grudge against the people of the Shenlongshang Alliance. When I saw you being hunted by them, I couldn't help but step in." Su Yang said with a smile. "Of course, if I could get some substantial benefit in place of verbal thanks, I'd be even more satisfied!"

"Next time for sure!"

"No sincerity!"

Yun Shuying said softly, "Anything I could offer, Chen Zhanglao probably wouldn't look twice at!"

Good heavens!

Su Yang's understanding of Yun Shuying deepened another step.

This woman was quite slippery.

Su Yang suggested, "How about offering yourself in marriage?"

"Huh?" Yun Shuying looked at Su Yang, then at Xia Na.

Xia Na reached out and lightly pinched the flesh at Su Yang's waist.

"Let's forget it then! I'm afraid someone will get jealous!" Yun Shuying saw Xia Na's little action and pressed her lips into a smile. "I'll just wait until the next life to serve you like a horse or an ox to repay Chen Zhanglao for his kindness, alright?"

Next life?

Heh!

How is that any different from "next time for sure"?

Su Yang felt like he'd been played for a fool!

Elder Long also noticed Xia Na's little action, but he said nothing.

He had noticed it during the last mission.

He just hadn't said anything.

"Chen Feng, are you willing to go?" Elder Long asked. "If you run into a tough enemy, you can come call for reinforcements. For the recent period, both Ling Elder and I will be stationed at headquarters!"

"Sure!"

This mission was still worth taking.

Whether it was passive defense or active offense, as long as he could encounter enemies, that was good.

He could also scout the area along the way, making it convenient for the Void Wanderer Spirit to teleport.

Actually, Su Yang hoped even more that Babaozhai would bring a large force and charge straight at the Shenlongshang Alliance headquarters, letting both sides have a thoroughly exhilarating all-out battle.

However, it was clear that the weaker Bao Bao Zhai preferred to fight a defensive counterattack.

Unless pushed to the brink, Bao Bao Zhai would not dare to risk everything in a decisive battle.

"Then let's set out tomorrow!" said Elder Long.
