Chapter Four – The Threshold to Celestial Rank.
Acting the swine to eat tigers.
No wonder Aofeng didn't let him speak of the other's strength. The impression the members of the four families had of Aofeng was deeply rooted. They would naturally overlook this in their plans. They would not think that Aofeng was the strongest of the Qin Family's group. When fighting for the dragon egg, when this powerful “good-for-nothing” suddenly attacked Lan Xun and Lan Cheng from behind, these two would lose a layer of skin if not face death.
The cooked duck would fly away, and in this case, would have been fantastically released by this “good-for-nothing” that they looked down upon. Lei Yufeng thought that in that moment, Lan Xun and Lan Cheng would want to spit blood.
Aofeng, this black-hearted person, wanted the Lan Family to taste what it felt like to fall from the heavens to h.e.l.l.
Lan Xun and Lan Cheng of the Lan Family were joyfully surprised when they heard the news. They calculated inside. Even with the Qin Family and Lei Yufeng added together, their combined strength could not compare to the Lan Family. The others were not a threat. Other than the four families, it was almost impossible for other groups of people to enter Death Ridge and obtain the dragon egg.
The strongest people in the forest could not rival the experts of the four great magister families, especially in their magus beasts. The difference was one between heaven and earth. These unaffiliated experts would mostly have one spirit beast. Some people even used useless nine-star magus beasts. Not everyone had a strong background like Lei Yufeng.
When he thought of this, Lan Xun seemed to forget the recent conflict. His old face showed a relatively friendly smile. “Your Excellency Qin Jian, I think that none of us have the abilities to take on the matter of the dragon egg alone. If one is not careful in exploring the Death Ridge, one will sink into death. Also, we are still leading our training squads. We cannot be rash. How about this, this old man's previous conditions still count. I will tame three high-ranking magic beasts for your Qin Family, even divine beasts if you can capture them. This old man will also help you tame those. We will merge our groups together to explore Death Ridge. If we can get the dragon egg, it will belong to the Lan Family, what do you think?”
Qin Jian stilled when he heard this. The excitement caused by the seven-star divine beast slowly faded. He thought calmly and felt that this was a profitable agreement. While he wanted to secretly to steal the dragon egg, that was just thinking. It was still a question if they could find the dragon egg.
There was more than just the Candia Giant Dragon in Death Ridge! And not just one or two high-rank magic beasts!
Even with a celestial magister leading the way, they had to go deep into Death Ridge in order to enter the nest of the giant dragon. If they were lucky, they would encounter one or two sacred beasts they could defeat. If they were unlucky and encountered several divine beasts, celestial magister would die as well! Otherwise, why did Lei Yufeng, a celestial magister who possessed a divine beast, not dare to go in?
If unorganized rabble went in, the great majority were going to die. Even if they were so fortunate as to enter the dragon's nest, the Candia Giant Dragon's sneeze could blow them away. Even wounded, a high star-level divine beast was still a high star-level divine beast. The giant dragon was not an ordinary magic beast. The only way to defeat the dragon was by the most shameless and despicable method of the humans in history — a group attack.
Qin Jian thought for a moment. He showed a smile and said, “The four families should help each other in friends.h.i.+p. Your Excellency Lan Xun, I accept your invitation on behalf of the Qin Family. I also have a suggestion. We could wait here for the other two families to come. I believe they will also be interested in this mission.”
Since he agreed to merge the groups, then they should combine all of the training squads of the four families. This way, they would have six celestial magister in total. There were also these outstanding youths of this present generation. Their minds would be broadened, and at important moments, the spirit magisters could also be of some effect.
“This old man understands. This old man also thinks this. Let us set up camp at this adventurer base and wait.” Lan Xun also thought of this. If they wanted to have a better chance of obtaining the dragon egg, more people was naturally better.
The two celestial magisters led their family members to find an empty region. They set up their tents. Aofeng chatted with Lei Yufeng and Qin Aohai. Qin Aohai and Aofeng had not met for many years, and he had many things he wanted to vent to his former childhood playmate. Aofeng greatly desired to learn about Big Brother Aotian from him so the three young people quickly became familiar with each other.
Qin Jian suddenly clapped his hand in among the bustling, and came next to Lei Yufeng and said,
“Your Excellency Lei Yufeng, I forgot to tell you. Your grandfather told us that if we encounter you to tell you to go back as soon as possible. Do not worry, I do not want to capture you and force you back. Before we left this time, he told me to tell you, be a magister if you want to be. He saw your hard work in these years. since you have become a celestial magister, he will no longer be angry with you. He misses you very much, you parents miss you and want you to go home.”
Lei Yufeng's tall body shook. Even his fingers were trembling as he cried out, “What did you say? Grandfather … …”
No wonder they didn't show any signs of trying to “capture” him. He had been nervous for a long time. Who knew that his grandfather with the temper of a bull actually compromised.
“Ah, His Excellency Lei Ting is strict, but you are his only grandson. Blood is thicker than water!” Qin Jian shook his head and laughed. “Young person, think hard, you will understand.”
Qin Jian turned and left. Lei Yufeng's eyes were bright red. He thought of the old person he had liked to stay close to the most, thought of his parents who he had not seen for many years. His heart flew back to his home.
