Chapter 117 Zhuang Yan 22
Chapter 117 Zhuang Yan 22
After leaving the small village, Qi Tan came to the small town near the village.
This town is not rich, and even carriages are not common, let alone flying monsters.But Qi Tan wasn't worried, because the flying monster he and Zhang Youfu took a few days ago didn't leave. He had specifically entrusted the contract partner of the flying monster, and gave enough rewards.
Qi Tan took this flying monster and left the small town again, and returned to the previous one, the small town where he eliminated Zhou Li.
He was sure that the Zhou family would never ignore the cause of Zhou Li's death, therefore, staying in the original place was the easiest way to lure the Zhou family members out.
The only thing Qi Tan has to do is to raise his energy, welcome the Zhou family members, and then send them to reunite with Zhou Li.
Time passed day by day, Qi Tan booked the same room in the same inn in the town, waiting for the arrival of the Zhou family.
In order to save time, Qi Tan withdrew the effect of the magic weapon in advance, so that the people of the Zhou family could sense Zhou Li's death.
Sure enough, a few days after the magic weapon was removed, Qi Tan felt several powerful auras appearing in the town, and after a while, those people came to the inn.
Qi Tan lowered the corners of his mouth, and heard his door being knocked, but he didn't open the door right away, but waited until the people outside the door couldn't wait anymore, and their actions became more and more rude. , opened the door unhurriedly.
There were five richly dressed people standing outside the door, and the aura emanating from them told Qi Tan that these people were all high-ranking beast masters.
As soon as he saw Qi Tan's appearance, the man in the lead was stunned, the speech he had prepared earlier was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.
Although they had never seen the boy before, the boy's appearance was very similar to his mother, and the man recognized the boy's identity with just one glance.
The man's name was Zhou Tai, and like Zhou Li, he was also a servant of the Zhou family.
The people behind them didn't seem to understand why Zhou Tai suddenly stopped moving. Zhou Tai felt their restlessness, raised his hand to press down, and signaled them not to act rashly.
"Zhuang Yan?" Zhou Tai asked in a low voice. As soon as the people behind him heard the name, they immediately understood what Zhou Tai meant. When they thought of Zhou Li's death, they looked at Qi Tan with strange eyes. stand up.
According to the information they got, Zhuang Yan was just an ordinary person without the talent of beast control, how could he have the ability to kill Zhou Li?
But the owner of the inn told them that during this period of time, only the boy lived in this room, and no one else lived in it.
Qi Tan didn't know what Zhou Tai and the others were thinking, and he didn't want to know. Seeing that Zhou Tai's expressions were not quite right, Qi Tan felt a little happy instead, and said briskly: "After waiting for you for so long, you can be regarded as coming here." gone."
Before Zhou Tai and the others realized what was going on, their eyes were shrouded in a dazzling white light, and then they discovered that the animal control technique they were proud of could not be performed within this white light. come out.
Qi Tan shook the ordinary-looking burlap bag in his hand, tied it around his waist, and asked the innkeeper to check out the room.
He spent a lot of points to redeem this burlap bag in the shopping bar of the system. It has a lot of space inside. More importantly, this burlap bag can put people in it together, and it can isolate the people inside from the outside world. all connections.
Of course, this also includes the connection between the beast masters and their contracted monsters.
After Qi Tan left the small town, he followed the route he had planned long ago, releasing a person from the sack every once in a while, and then quickly dealt with them.
In the end, when only Zhou Tai was left in the sack, Qi Tan had already arrived at his destination, the edge of the cliff filled with black mist.
Qi Tan released Zhou Tai from the sack, and Zhou Tai stayed in the sack full of white light for a long time. When he came out, he was not used to it. He looked at Qi Tan.
Even if he was not released by Qi Tan before, he could still clearly feel that the other four high-ranking beast masters who came with him had died in Qi Tan's hands.
Those are four high-level beast masters!And Zhuang Yan is just an ordinary boy, who doesn't even know how to control beasts!
Zhou Tai thought he was observing the surrounding terrain secretly, and seemed to want to take the opportunity to escape from Qi Tan's grasp, but Qi Tan didn't give him this chance, and before he found the route, Qi Tan grabbed him Wrist, whispered to him: "My mother should have told you that the exercise book you want is right under this cliff."
Only then did Zhou Tai realize that there was a cliff next to him, and the black mist visible to the naked eye made his pupils shrink suddenly.
"Why, don't you want to go down with me?" Qi Tan raised his eyebrows, seeing with satisfaction that Zhou Tai's expression became more frightened.
Zhou Tai knew that he couldn't beat Qi Tan, so he could only say: "Zhuang Yan, if you dare to kill me, the Zhou family will not let you go."
What he didn't expect was that Qi Tan laughed when he heard this, "If I don't kill you, will the Zhou family stop pestering me?"
Zhou Tai didn't know that Qi Tan actually knew everything. Hearing Qi Tan's words, he hurriedly said: "As long as you let me go, I guarantee that the Zhou family will not be entangled with you anymore, nor will they pursue other people's crimes." die."
Qi Tan sneered, "If Zhou Wan said this, maybe I would still believe it."
The moment Zhou Tai heard the name of his young lady, Zhou Tai's expression suddenly changed, "You, you know?"
Qi Tan didn't answer his words, but just raised the corners of his lips and looked at him inexplicably, then before Zhou Tai could react, he pulled his arm and leaned back, and the two of them fell into the cliff together.
It wasn't because Qi Tan wanted to die with Zhou Tai on a whim, nor was it because Qi Tan couldn't beat Zhou Tai, but because he wanted Zhou Tai to die at the bottom of this cliff so that the Zhou family could receive such news.
More importantly, Qi Tan felt that Yuan Zhuangyan might be more interested in seeing him use the power of this world than using the things he exchanged from the system against Zhou Wan. After all, what Zhou Wan dislikes the most is the original Zhuang Yan did not have the talent to control beasts, and because of this, she felt that the original Zhuang Yan was a stain in her life, so she came up with the idea of getting rid of him.
But in fact, it's not that Zhuang Yan has no talent for controlling beasts. His talent is the same as that of his father Zhuang Mu.
The black mist under the cliff was very thick and exuded a sinister aura, but Qi Tan didn't feel afraid, but Zhou Tai, who was tall and burly, the moment he came into contact with the black mist, his whole body began to calm down. He couldn't stop shaking, as if the black mist made him feel extremely painful.
On the other hand, Qi Tan has a face of comfort, the black mist lingers around him, constantly stimulating the veins in his body, making Qi Tan clearly feel that his body is gradually filling up, full of strength.
After the black mist stopped continuously penetrating into Qi Tan's body, a long time had passed. Qi Tan opened his eyes, looked at the Yin beasts hidden in the black mist, and curled his lips in satisfaction.
Outside the cliff, the Zhou family.
It has been more than a year since the Zhou family lost six high-level beast masters in a row. Instead of getting out of the trough in such a long time, the Zhou family's status in the entire continent has become even lower.
It is not possible for the six high-ranking beast masters to recover in a year or two. That is more than half of the strength of the entire Zhou family, but they will be gone if they say nothing.
The other Beast Families on the mainland got the news from nowhere, and joined hands together, wanting to take this opportunity to prevent the Zhou family from rising again.
For this reason, Zhou Zhi, the head of the Zhou family, has punished Zhou Wan countless times. If she hadn't insisted on getting rid of Zhuang Yan, how could Zhou Li have died in such a remote place? The beast master wants to avenge Zhou Li.
It has been a year now, and they don't even know who killed those high-level beast masters. They only know that Zhou Tai's last life wave before his death appeared on the edge of the cliff.
Zhou Zhi knew that the exercise book was under the cliff, but he didn't believe that Zhou Tai had such good luck that he could find that exercise book under the cliff by such a coincidence.
What's more, Zhou Tai's breath of life has disappeared. If there is nothing wrong with the magic weapon, Zhou Tai has no possibility of survival.
On this day, Zhou Wan was staying in the confinement room, and was asked by his father Zhou Zhi to reflect again. Unexpectedly, not long after she entered the confinement room, she heard noises outside, and immediately, the door of the confinement room was knocked by servants.
"Miss, the master asked you to go to the front hall."
Zhou Wan suppressed the doubts in her heart, and followed the servants to the front hall.
Besides Zhou Zhi, there was another person in the front hall.The man was dressed in black, holding a little black cat in his arms, and wearing a hat with a wide brim on his head, which covered his face in all directions, making it difficult for people to see his appearance clearly.
But the moment she saw that person, Zhou Wan's heart skipped a beat, and an indescribable sense of familiarity instantly filled her chest.
A thought flashed through her mind, a thought she couldn't believe at all, but she couldn't help but believe the truth.
Seeing Zhou Wan coming, the man chuckled and took off the big hat on his head, revealing his young face somewhat similar to Zhou Wan's.
"Mother, long time no see." Qi Tan said softly.
Zhou Wan couldn't help but took a few steps back, her beautiful eyes widened with disbelief.
Her useless son who didn't have the slightest talent for controlling beasts stood in front of her now, and the strong aura emanating from him told her that her son's strength would definitely not be lower than that of a high-ranking beast master.
Thinking of the death of Zhou Li and several other high-ranking beast masters a year ago, and Zhou Tai's final death on the edge of the cliff full of strange black energy, Zhou Wan understood everything in an instant.
"It was you, you killed Zhou Li and the others!" Zhou Wan cried out, "Zhou Tai is your cousin! How dare you..."
But before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Qi Tan, "Mother, I am your son."
Zhou Wan was taken aback for a moment, as if she didn't realize what Qi Tan meant.
"You want to get rid of your own son, do I still need to be merciful?" Qi Tan twitched his lips, "Since you left me and my father and left, I have nothing to do with you, and naturally I don't have anything to do with you." What cousins, you are just strangers to me."
Zhou Wan stared at him blankly, Qi Tan's words made her brain a little bit overwhelmed.
"No, it's not a stranger, it should be said that it's an enemy." Qi Tan chuckled, "Because you always wanted my life, didn't you?"
"Zhuang Yan—!" Zhou Wan screamed, but was startled by Zhou Zhi's loud shout, and fell silent.
Zhou Zhi withdrew his gaze and looked at Qi Tan flatteringly, "Wan'er is spoiled by me, don't mind."
Qi Tan glanced at him inexplicably, but didn't speak.
As soon as he met the boy's eyes, Zhou Zhi couldn't help shivering.The other party was clearly just a young man who had just grown up, but he gave him a penetrating coolness, which made him unable to resist the slightest thought in his heart.
Intuition told him that this young man was not something he could provoke, not even the entire Zhou family.
"Since the six high-ranking beast masters of the Zhou family have already died, why don't you let Wan'er go?" Zhou Zhi said cautiously, with the honorific unconsciously embedded in his words.
Qi Tan raised his eyebrows, his thin lips curled slightly, and under Zhou Zhi's nervous gaze, he slightly parted his lips and said, "The Zhou family or Zhou Wan, you can only choose one."
Looking at the panicked and angry faces of the two people in the front hall, Qi Tan rubbed Xiao Hei's head and didn't speak any more.
The final result speaks for itself.
Zhou Zhi chose the Zhou family and gave up Zhou Wan.He was the head of the Zhou family first, and then Zhou Wan's father. For him, if the daughter was gone, it would be gone. If the Zhou family collapsed, they might never come back.
Even in order to show his favor to Qi Tan and express that he has no dissent, Zhou Zhi took Zhou Wan's life by himself.
Zhou Wan wanted to take her son's life with all her heart, but she might never have imagined that she would die at the hands of her own father in the end.
The task progress on the system interface moved forward slowly, and finally stopped at 90.00% nine.
Qi Tan held Xiao Hei in his arms, left Zhou's house, summoned a flying Yin beast, and came to the edge of the cliff.
As if realizing Qi Tan's plan, Xiao Hei let out a soft cry and licked Qi Tan's cheek.
Qi Tan breathed a sigh of relief, for some reason, his intuition told him that the last one percent of the progress bar was related to this cliff.
Qi Tan lifted Xiao Hei up to the same height as his own head, and said softly, "This is it, right?"
Xiao Hei meowed, as if answering Qi Tan's question.
Qi Tan originally wanted to say that after the mission is over, let Xiao Hei tell him everything, but he suddenly remembered that when he returns to the system space, his memory will recover, and he will not need his lover by then Tell him he can think of everything by himself.
Thinking of this, Qi Tan couldn't wait any longer.
The next second, the boy standing on the edge of the cliff leaned forward, and soon fell to the bottom of the cliff.
[Congratulations to senior for completing the final assessment task, the task is rated S-level, and the completion is perfect.After returning to the system space, please seniors go to the main system to upgrade as soon as possible, and receive the upgrade gift package. 】
Qi Er's voice rang in his ears, Qi Tan only heard a rough idea, and then he was overwhelmed by the surging memory.
It was his memory, and it was about him and his lover.
When he and his lover met for the first time, he successfully became the binding system of his lover. He took his lover through various worlds and completed various tasks. During the process, the two were gradually attracted by each other, and finally fell in love together.
He still remembered the man's deliberately low, loving voice, "Qiqi, let me go to the system world, I want to be with you forever."
Of course, Qi Tan agreed.
This is why Qi Tan accepted the upgrade assessment. Only S-level systems can bring newcomers into the system world, and Qi Tan at that time was just an A-level system.
The lengthy memories gradually settled down, and consciousness gradually returned.
Qi Tan opened his eyes, and saw a familiar face in front of him without any surprise, "Welcome back, Qi Qi."
The man's voice was exactly the same as he remembered, without any change.
Qi Tan couldn't help touching his left chest, the heart in his chest began to lose control the moment he heard the sound, beating wildly.
Qi Tan took a deep breath, and did not hesitate to smile and kiss, "I'm back, Zhuang Yan."
