Chapter 451: Chapter 451: Picking up the boat?_1

"I bet he’s planning to just wing it."

The phantom of Agunas spoke calmly, while Feng Yuan gave the appearance of being exposed, saying

"Not at all! I just haven’t figured it out yet!"

"Why don’t you raise an earth ball then?"

"Why would I raise an earth ball..."

Feng Yuan looked at Qi Chen somewhat speechlessly; he hadn’t expected the other party to come up with such an unreliable suggestion. Qi Chen, leaning against the railing, said

"Don’t you like to come up with things that surprise people? I believe even an Earth System Native Level earth ball would undergo bizarre changes in your care, just like Xiao Ji did, right?"

"Forget it... I’m not interested, and it’s really too much trouble to raise a Native Level creature."

"Besides, I don’t need to."

The phantom of Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and flicked its tail, obviously aware that for Feng Yuan, assembling a team of terrifyingly powerful Native Level spirit beasts wouldn’t be a problem, but it wasn’t necessary, as he had said, and doing so always came at a cost.

The ship sped along the high-speed channel towards the Divine Land Region. Spirit beasts that occasionally appeared around the ship failed to spark the interest of the passengers, and gradually, the ship reached the harbor.

"What in the world is this..."

Seeing the banner at the exit, Feng Yuan said with some surprise, and Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, saying

"Did you arrange this?"

"I’m not that bored."

"Welcome home, Special Operations’ Feng Yuan? What did you do this time?"

"What could I have done! Wouldn’t you guys know if I did anything?"

Feng Yuan looked at Qi Xiaoshuang with a wronged expression, and Dou Yanlan, after a glance, said calmly

"Even in the Special Affairs Bureau, there are idiots."

"What do you mean?"

Qi Chen looked at Dou Yanlan, somewhat puzzled, pointed at the man covering his face next to the banner and Dou Yanlan said calmly

"It’s obvious the person couldn’t stop the idiot’s strange behavior."

"Captain Yang?"

"Is that him?!"

"What’s he doing here?!"

Yang Hongzhi looked at the man in surprise, and just then, the two young people in uniform who were holding the banner seemed to notice Feng Yuan. They quickly dropped the banner and rushed over. A woman with short wavy hair curiously looked at Feng Yuan, who was holding Pomiti, and said with a snicker

"Are you Feng Yuan? So cute～ Let big sister pinch you～"

Feng Yuan nimbly dodged the reaching ’claws’ and glanced at the other young man in uniform. But when Feng Yuan noticed that what appeared to be in the pocket over the man’s chest was not an ID but what seemed like a card from a newly released game by a certain manufacturer, he silently retreated behind his companions and said

"What exactly are you trying to do here?"

At that moment, Captain Yang, sensing the commotion, approached the two people somewhat speechless and said

"Yu Shanshan, enough is enough. Don’t provoke others to anger later."

Yang Hongzhi, surprised, looked at Captain Yang and said

"You even discuss things with your team members?"

"Do you really see me as someone that heartless?"

"Not just in my eyes, ask your own team members."

Seeing that Yang Hongzhi seemed about to squabble with Captain Yang, Feng Yuan hurriedly came forward, saying

"What is this all about?"

"Of course, it’s to welcome you back～"

Seeing Yu Shanshan move closer, Feng Yuan quickly stepped back and said, noticing that she appeared somewhat snubbed, Yu Shanshan protested,

"Why are you acting like this? Don’t you think the welcome ceremony we prepared is passionate enough?"

"This doesn’t seem like the Special Affairs Bureau’s style, does it?"

Feng Yuan looked meaningfully at Captain Yang, who rubbed his forehead and said with some helplessness,

"Don’t mind her—she’s been spoiled by Elder Yu a bit... but she’s still very reliable when it comes to serious matters."

"Spoiled? I just think your previous work attitude wasn’t great, with your faces all stern. Who are you trying to scare?"

"Little Feng Yuan～ Do you want to exchange phone numbers～"

"I don’t have a phone."

Feng Yuan replied very decisively. Yu Shanshan glanced at him and said reproachfully,

"You’re not being honest. I know you have a phone."

"You probably even know the number, so why are you asking?"

Feng Yuan glanced at Yu Shanshan and said, as she waved her hand,

"I sure don’t want to be treated like some random telemarketer and have my calls rejected."

"Enough, Yu Shanshan! Step back!"

Unable to tolerate any more, Captain Yang shouted, Yu Shanshan glared at him and, with some dissatisfaction, stepped back. Captain Yang looked at Feng Yuan and said

"Sorry, she’s a bit..."

"It’s fine, but what exactly do you want from me?"

"We came to tell you that we know all about what you did in Calien, and we’re very thankful for your contribution."

Captain Yang sincerely said, although Feng Yuan found his words a bit strange, after thinking it over, he said

"Is that it?"

"There’s one more thing, about the Beast Taming Competition the year after next, you..."

"Forget it, I’m not interested in competing, it’s pointless."

Feng Yuan interrupted before Captain Yang could finish, who then thought for a moment and said

"Is there anything you need our help with? Like any special requests or proofs?"

Seeing Captain Yang’s gaze drift towards Najia, Feng Yuan said irritably,

"Don’t ask me about Najia’s matters, ask him."

Realizing Captain Yang’s gaze was turning to him, Yang Hongzhi cautiously looked at Captain Yang and said

"What are you going to do?!"

With a complex expression, Captain Yang stared at Yang Hongzhi and said

"Do you really know who it is?"

"The Pray-er among the Stars, a Divine Beast that has broken free from regional constraints."

Feng Yuan directly said, somewhat puzzled, Yang Hongzhi asked

"The Pray-er among the Stars?"

"That’s its title. Don’t underestimate Najia. When it really comes to a fight, it’s on the same level as Nagna."

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Captain Yang narrowed his eyes, sweeping a surprised glance over Najia. The information they had only confirmed that Najia was a Divine Beast, but they were completely unaware of Najia’s specific attributes and strength.

"Seems pretty powerful."

Qi Xiaoshuang curiously eyed Najia and said. Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Xiaoshuang and said,

"Of course, don’t underestimate Najia. Don’t forget Najia’s signature move, Star of Death. Haven’t you witnessed its power?"

Remembering the move that directly destroyed Noscarte, Qi Xiaoshuang suddenly became alert, realizing that she had subconsciously forgotten about the battle that had just taken place because Najia was usually just singing and dancing to enhance everyone’s abilities. Recalling the fearsome power of Star of Death, Qi Xiaoshuang, as if remembering something, looked towards Yang Hongzhi and said,

"Since we have Najia, then you’ll definitely represent our Divine Land Region in the competition, right~"

With dubious eyes, Captain Yang surveyed Yang Hongzhi. He had some guesses in mind. Facing Captain Yang’s scrutinizing gaze, Yang Hongzhi calmly nodded and said,

"You guessed right, I am Najia’s Divine Pact Maker."

"How is that possible?!"

Captain Yang and the other two looked at Yang Hongzhi in shock. With an expression as if she were being joked with, Yu Shanshan said,

"Aren’t Divine Beasts supposed to only make pacts with kids? At your age..."

"Who said Divine Beasts can only make pacts with kids? That’s complete nonsense. Divine Beasts choose Divine Pact Makers based solely on their character. It just seems they only choose children because they’re more likely to meet the standards."

Feng Yuan said discontentedly, and Captain Yang nodded in agreement,

"That’s the acknowledged truth by the Divine Beasts."

Agunas’s spectral form flicked its tail and glanced at Captain Yang, saying,

"Is there some other bizarre belief?"

"Of course there is! Like the idea that Divine Beasts are actually grr grr!"

The young man hurriedly covered Yu Shanshan’s mouth. Qi Xiaoshuang said with a mischievous smile,

"Talking like that in front of a Divine Beast, you’re pretty bold~"

"Mmm mmm mmm!"

Whether it was due to lack of strength or some other reason, Yu Shanshan couldn’t break free from the young man’s grip. Captain Yang rubbed his temples, feeling a bit helpless. After a moment, he looked towards Yang Hongzhi and said,

"Since you are a Divine Pact Maker, then..."

"I will naturally compete because that’s something that guy asked me to do."

Yang Hongzhi said calmly, Captain Yang observed him with a bit of confusion but didn’t say much further. Glancing at Feng Yuan, he said,

"While they hope we can persuade you to stay in Great Xia, I don’t want to. Where you go is your freedom, and you shouldn’t be swayed by some meaningless things."

"How can you call them meaningless things! Captain Yang, how could you say such a thing!"

Yu Shanshan shouted at Captain Yang, sounding quite angry.
