Chapter 81: Moving! Leaving White Ant Town! The Memories We Must Take!

Perhaps a tiny minority of city lords, upon discovering a genius beast tamer within their city, would feel deep unease and even attempt to eliminate the genius to protect their own status.

But most human city lords possess considerable magnanimity!

As long as those genius beast tamers are willing to accept the city lord's overtures and have no direct conflict of interest with them, the city lords will all nurture these young genius beast tamers well.

Not for any other reason, but for the survival and reproduction of the race.

As city lords, they too bear heavy responsibilities!

They also hope their subordinates are all vigorous, strong as beasts!

Deputy Chen arranged for someone to drive and personally escorted Su Yang back.

Arriving at the entrance of White Ant Town, Deputy Chen parted with Su Yang: "Brother Su, if you come looking for me, tell the gatekeeper you're here to see Chen Yanyun, and when you give your name, he'll take you to me; if I'm not around, someone else will still receive you—rest assured!"

"Thanks, Brother Chen!"

Hearing that "Brother Chen," Chen Yanyun's face broke into a smile.

"Don't mention it. The city lord values you greatly—work hard to strengthen your power!"

In the inner city of Seven Stars City, the Su family of three sat in the hall; Su Liqun's wife, Zhang Limin, asked: "Old Su, is that Su Yang the genius you mentioned before—the one even more talented than our daughter?"

Zhang Limin was also a powerful beast tamer.

Due to her personality, Zhang Limin disliked staying quietly in Seven Stars City to enjoy comfort.

She preferred venturing out to fight and hunt ferocious beasts.

Thus, she knew little about Su Yang's details, only hearing rumors occasionally!

Su Wan leaned back against the sofa, listlessly saying: "Mom, don't compare me to Su Yang… what genius am I? In front of Su Yang, I'm nothing!"

"Tell Mom about it!"

So Su Wan briefly recounted Su Yang's story.

"What?" Zhang Limin exclaimed. "Awakened for barely over a month, became a Bronze-level beast tamer, and instantly killed Guo Qing's Blackfeather Wind Hawk? How is that possible?"

"If I hadn't witnessed it myself, I'd think it impossible too!" Su Liqun said beside her. "But that Su Yang really is that powerful—his hawk's combat talent is likely the rare ability of speed. If I weren't forbidden from seizing others' beast companions, I'd have moved in myself!"

After a beast tamer dies, the beast companion bound to him usually defects.

When the beast tamer profession first emerged, some had indeed tried to seize others' beast companions.

They discovered they couldn't take them.

Each ferocious beast can form a bond with only one beast tamer in its lifetime!

Zhang Limin said: "Old Su, could Su Yang possibly have a special talent that accelerates beast companion growth?"

"Highly likely!"

"Old Su, then won't Su Yang's future achievements surpass yours?"

"If he doesn't die prematurely, definitely!" Su Liqun nodded, then smiled at Su Wan. "Come to think of it, our daughter has good taste—on Su Yang's very first day at school, she publicly confessed to him in front of the entire school!"

"What? That happened too? But Su Yang really is impressive!" Zhang Limin exclaimed. "But how come I didn't know? Wan'er, tell Mom—are you in love with that Su Yang?"

Su Wan stood up from the sofa and ran to her room.

"Why did she run off?"

"Your daughter seems to have been rejected!"

"What? Su Yang rejected Wan'er? Why?"

Zhang Limin chased after her daughter, but Su Wan slammed the door shut.

"Open up! Open up, Wan'er! We can talk this through!" Zhang Limin pounded on the door. "If you truly love that Su Yang, Mom can tie him up and make you two a real couple—how's that?"

Su Liqun, hearing his wife's words, nearly spilled his tea.

The household servants hurried their steps even more…

Upon learning they were moving, Zhang Xiuru and Su Xiaoxiao were so excited they couldn't sleep all night.

They began packing their belongings at midnight.

"Mom, don't take this chair!"

Zhang Xiuru hesitated: "It's still usable—throwing it away is such a waste!"

"Then give it away!"

"The stool's too old; our new home has furniture—you taking it will just waste space!"

"Give away old clothes—I'll buy you new ones!"

"..."

Under Su Yang's strong insistence, Zhang Xiuru reluctantly gave away many pieces of furniture and clothes to neighbors who had cared for the Su family.

Many people in White Ant Town knew Su Yang had graduated early and was taking Zhang Xiuru and Su Xiaoxiao to Seven Stars City to enjoy life!

"How envious of Xiuru—she gave birth to such a wonderful son!"

"Xiuru, don't forget to come back and visit!"

"Xiaoxiao, can I come visit you in the city someday?"

"..."

Su Yang rubbed his temples, pointing at the pile of items: "Mom, should we throw all this away too?"

"Son, can't we keep it?"

Zhang Xiuru said, voice tinged with sadness: "This was your childhood toy, this was your father's favorite toolbox, this is the crib your father made for you..."

Su Yang bit his lip.

To him, these things were just junk.

But to his mother, they were the most important memories of her life.

"Alright, then take them all—we've got plenty of space!"
