Chapter 754

That's just asking for punishment!

The Void Wandering Spirit, the Storm Eagle, and that demon bear aside, Liu Mengyun doubted she could even handle that Seven-Colored Illusory Butterfly.

"Get some good rest!"

A few days later, Su Yang, Deputy Mayor Feng Yuanjie, and Liu Mengyun sat in the office.

"Mayor Feng, I'm going on a trip soon—might be one or two months!"

"Mayor Su, that won't do! You're the mayor—Mount Dajiao can't do without you!"

"Before, it couldn't; now, it can!" Su Yang nodded toward Liu Mengyun. "While I'm gone, Liu Mengyun will stand in for me and guard Mount Dajiao."

"Liu Deputy Officer… is that acceptable?"

Facing Feng Yuanjie's doubt, Liu Mengyun didn't care at all.

"It's fine—Liu Deputy Officer is now a King-Level Beast Tamer!" Su Yang couldn't help laughing. "To be honest, her rank is even higher than mine!"

"What?!"

Feng Yuanjie jumped up from the sofa in shock.

A King-Level beast's aura slowly radiated from Liu Mengyun.

Feng Yuanjie felt the pressure of a King-Level powerhouse!

That aura was thick and icy, like a glacier frozen for millennia!

King-Level powerhouse!

Undoubtedly!

Feng Yuanjie swallowed hard.

He hadn't expected Liu Mengyun, Su Yang's deputy officer, to become a King-Level powerhouse!

This news… was simply too shocking!

But if Liu Mengyun had become a King-Level Beast Tamer, would she still be willing to remain a deputy officer?

After all, a military genius like her—already a King-Level Beast Tamer in her early twenties—would have limitless future potential; becoming a General in the military was entirely possible!

"Liu Mengyun's strength far exceeds that of a typical beginner King-Level Beast Tamer. She can certainly guard Mount Dajiao in my absence!" Su Yang said casually. "Besides, Mount Dajiao's current situation is very stable. If real danger arises, we can ask the Treasure Pavilion for help defending the city—they won't refuse."

Liu Mengyun's Ice Moon Sprite had extraordinary talent.

Since ice and water share the same origin, she could still unleash tremendous combat power by the sea!

Even relying solely on the Ice Moon Sprite, she could freeze a King Mid-Grade Beast Tamer!

"Can we spread the news of Liu Deputy Officer's breakthrough to King-Level?" Feng Yuanjie asked quietly. "If Mayor Su leaves Mount Dajiao, I fear the news might cause panic."

Liu Mengyun looked at Su Yang, waiting for his decision.

"How about this, Liu Deputy Officer? Challenge the current Treasure Pavilion shopkeeper, Bai Cang—he's also King-Level Beginner!" Su Yang thought for a moment. "You just broke through; wanting to fight a match is perfectly normal. And if you win, all major factions in Mount Dajiao will dare not stir trouble, and the commoners won't panic."

"Liu Deputy Officer, do you have confidence?"

Liu Mengyun replied: "Yes, my lord!"

"Ding~ Task released: Defeat Bai Cang, King-Level Beginner of the Treasure Pavilion, using only the Ice Moon Sprite!"

"Ding~ Task reward: One talent point awarded to the Ice Moon Sprite, allowing it to upgrade its talent by one level!"

A system task arrived!

Su Yang was satisfied.

He asked Liu Mengyun: "Can you do it using only the Ice Moon Sprite?"

Liu Mengyun nodded: "Yes."

"Go!" Su Yang smiled. "If you win, I can leave with peace of mind!"

"Your servant will not disappoint you, my lord!"

"If Bai Cang refuses, just mention my name—it should work."

Watching Liu Mengyun leave, Su Yang lounged back in his chair, gazing at the sea outside.

Feng Yuanjie asked quietly: "My lord, aren't you going to watch?"

"No need. If you're curious, you can go yourself."

"Then I'm off!"

"Go!" Su Yang smiled. "Liu Deputy Officer's strength won't disappoint you!"

Feng Yuanjie grumbled inwardly.

Liu Deputy Officer's King-Level strength wouldn't disappoint him… it would only leave him in despair!

After everyone left, Su Yang stretched out on the sofa, catching a little nap.

Since becoming Mayor of Mount Dajiao, Su Yang had less freedom.

But even so, he had no intention of giving up his military identity.

Simply put, it was far too convenient to operate within the military.

The military's goals and principles aligned with his own.

And besides, he was always the one forcing others into submission, making enemies beg for peace!

He was always the one chasing others down, making them flee in terror!

That feeling—strangely enough—was quite satisfying!
