Beast Taming Patrol

Qin Yunzhang and Lin Su exchanged a knowing smile and quickly stepped forward to take the analysis results from Du Lan's hands, getting busy with their work.

This busy work extended into the deep night.

Dragging their exhausted bodies, and carrying the equally tired Qiuqiu, they returned to the hotel, where Lin Su fell asleep without another word.

When he woke up in the God Martial Realm, it was already the next morning.

The blood moon night had just dissipated, and Lin Su and his companion walked out of the Sky Star Alliance's base in the Golden City, ignoring the fearful glances from others as they departed.

Shortly after their departure, powerful presences descended upon the Sky Star Alliance's base. Learning that the madman who had robbed the alliance had left quietly, many forces were frustrated but could only confiscate the remnants of the Sky Star Alliance, taking what little they could.

Such a significant event was rare in the Northern Genius Battlefield.

Thus, the rumor that a peerless warrior named Lin Su had wiped out the Sky Star Alliance on the Western Genius Battlefield and left freely, leaving other forces empty-handed, spread rapidly across the entire Northern Genius Battlefield.

Lin Su and Lu Ziye were unaware of all this.

With the help of Ghost Ghost, they spent the whole day on the road.

As dusk fell again, and with another blood moon night approaching, Lin Su and Lu Ziye slowly emerged from a mass of flying shadows.

"Ghost Ghost, thank you for your hard work." Lin Su rubbed Ghost Ghost's hat, smiling.

A full day of Shadow Escape had not consumed much of Ghost Ghost's stamina, but it was undoubtedly boring.

"Jie!" (No problem!)

Ghost Ghost shook its head, indicating it didn't mind at all, then glanced at Qiuqiu, who was lying on Lin Su's head.

Big Bro, so what if you evolved? The position of the team's utility person is always mine!

"Brother Lin, we still have half the journey to the Southern Genius Battlefield." Lu Ziye took out a map, compared it to the surrounding terrain, and quickly spoke, "With the blood moon night approaching, should we rest in the nearby Silver City first?"

"All right." Lin Su nodded slightly.

With Ghost Ghost's current Shadow Escape speed, a full day of travel had already taken them halfway across the Western Genius Battlefield.

With another day's travel tomorrow, they would enter the Southern Genius Battlefield.

By then, there would be no need to rush.

"Let me see..." Lu Ziye glanced at the map, pointing to an ancient city on it, "Here is a Rainbow City, the closest Silver City to us. Shall we go there?"

"No problem."

After deciding on their destination, the two quickly headed towards Rainbow City.

Soon, a magnificent ancient city, shining with silver-white light in the setting sun, appeared before them.

"It would be great if Brother Yan were here." Looking at the rapidly approaching ancient city, Lu Ziye sighed, "The Secret Realm Core here is of the light element, useful for him but not much for you and me."

"It's fine, we're only staying the night." Lin Su shook his head slightly.

Both the Silver City and the Golden City had Secret Realm Cores, but not every core was suitable for him.

The Genius Battlefield was full of opportunities, and choices had to be made.

As they spoke, they had already reached Rainbow City's gate.

As Lin Su appeared, the geniuses coming and going at the gate fell silent.

Obviously, they had not expected to see this infamous figure from the Western Genius Battlefield here, causing some tension.

In this sudden silence, an exclamation from within the city seemed especially abrupt.

"Brother Liu, are you okay?!"

Lin Su had just crossed the gate in one step when he heard the exclamation and instinctively turned to look.

In a corner of the inner square, a ragged and dusty woman was tightly hugging a man, her face full of tears.

The man's chest bore a deep wound, blood continuously flowing out.

Next, a genius holding a blood-stained long knife appeared, grinning as he walked towards the pair, "Liu Tu, Liu Tu, you never thought you would see this day, did you?"

"Don't blame me, blame your Daluo Empire for offending the wrong people."

As soon as the knife-wielding genius finished speaking, he slashed towards Liu Tu without hesitation. The long knife drew a terrifying blade shadow tens of meters long in the air, mercilessly cutting towards Liu Tu and the woman.

"Qiuqiu, Time-Slowing Breath."

Lin Su's calm voice rang out.

In the next moment, brilliant light quickly enveloped the fearsome blade shadow in the sky, and the terrifying strike that had been falling with overwhelming momentum slowed down to a snail's pace.

A black light flashed, and Liu Tu and the woman disappeared from under the blade shadow, reappearing beside Lin Su.

"Thank you..." Liu Tu thanked weakly, but upon seeing Lin Su's face, he paused slightly, "Brother Lin?!"

"Brother Liu, long time no see?" Lin Su coughed lightly, then changed his tone, "Well, you don't look well."

Liu Tu: "..."

"Brother Lin?" Lu Ziye, standing nearby, curiously glanced at Liu Tu, not understanding why Lin Su had stepped in to save him.

"I owed a favor." Lin Su smiled.

Previously, at the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, Liu Tu had given him a map of the Ghost Fear Cliff.

It had been some time since then, so Lin Su had not recognized him immediately.

Not until the knife-wielding genius mentioned Liu Tu's name did he remember.

Saving Liu Tu was just a simple gesture to repay the favor.

Seeing the knife-wielding man's expression rapidly change, Lin Su coughed lightly, "Who did their Daluo Empire offend?"

"This... is a misunderstanding." The man forced a smile more hideous than a cry.

Liu Tu actually knew this killing star!

Without saying another word, he turned and left.

If he didn't leave now, and this killing star destroyed his entire force, he would have nowhere to cry!

Watching the man leave so decisively, Lin Su smiled helplessly, took out a bottle of healing medication from his Space Ring, and handed it to Liu Tu, "Brother Liu, the favor is repaid, take care of yourself."

"Brother Liu..." The woman only now realized what was happening, instinctively looking at Liu Tu.

"Let's leave this place first!" Liu Tu struggled to stand, gazing deeply at Lin Su's departing figure.

A map for a life; his life was not so cheap.

He would remember this favor.
