They are not human!

Chapter 27 They are not human!

Donghai City.

Deep underground in the city lord's mansion.

This is a strange and enormous hall.

On the floor of the hall, there was an intricate magic circle.

On the magic circle, spiritual lines shimmered with starlight, like serpents slithering about.

At the center of the magic circle, a Titan ape, forty meters tall and covered in scales, was emitting terrifying red light from its eyes and roaring angrily!

At the feet of the Titan Ape stood an old man with a full head of silver hair and his hands behind his back.

The old man had a weathered face with deep wrinkles, and was tall and thin, but he did not give the impression of being frail at all.

He tilted his head slightly, his whole body seemingly made of steel, concealing a terrifying power!

"Da, da, da!"

A burly middle-aged man in armor, carrying a sword, strode in: "Elder Qin, what happened?"

Why did you suddenly wake up from your deep sleep?

Why is the Titan Ape roaring in unease?

Old Qin's eyes gleamed as he sat cross-legged in the center of the formation.

The Titan Ape's body had also shrunk considerably, and it sat cross-legged as well.

Old Qin frowned and said, "I sensed 'their' presence in the Black Ant Forest outside Donghai City."

"But the other party was as cunning as a fox and ran very fast."

"I was unable to lock onto its presence."

"'Them'...what? Black Ant Forest!" The burly middle-aged man exclaimed in surprise. "They have some nerve, daring to come to the edge of my East Sea City to provoke us!"

Old Qin gave a light snort and said, "This is the third time this month..."

"The previous two times we were quite far away, so I didn't bother with them."

"But this time, they actually came all the way to the black ant forest!"

"This isn't right... There shouldn't be anything in our Donghai City that they would be interested in."

"Could it be that they're here for the Fifth Secret Realm?"

"In any case, City Lord, you still need to contact Shanghai as soon as possible."

The burly middle-aged man carrying a battle sword in front of you is none other than Bai Tianyu, the city lord of Donghai City!

Bai Tianyu's face showed horror: "Elder Qin, are 'they'... really that terrifying?"

"With you, Elder Fan, and Elder Ding—three powerful figures—in charge of Donghai City, are we really afraid of them?!"

Old Qin shook his head slightly, his throat a little dry, and said, "Although you are the city lord of Donghai City, you have never fought against them and have no idea what kind of beings they are."

"Even now, it seems that even those at the higher levels still haven't figured out their true strength."

"Their henchmen are all over the world..."

"Wherever they appear, disaster is inevitable!"

"They are not human, they are demons!"

"A true demon!"

The Titan Ape beside him sensed Qin Lao's tension and anger, and gently touched Qin Lao's back twice with its huge fingers as a form of comfort.

Bai Tianyu nodded.

Elder Qin then said, "Let the War God Pioneer Team and the other three pioneering teams speed up their progress and enter the depths of the Fifth Secret Realm as soon as possible."

"The several starstone veins deep within the Fifth Secret Realm are of vital importance to our East Sea City."

"If we can mine the starstone veins in the fifth secret realm, the defensive power of our East Sea City's grand formation can be increased several times over!"

"If we have enough starstones, we can boldly deploy the Star Destruction Cannons in several key locations..."

"snort!"

Old Qin snorted and said, "If they dare to lay a finger on my Donghai City, we'll blast them to pieces!"

"I understand..." Bai Tianyu didn't ask any more questions, nodded and said, "I'll contact the Shanghai side immediately, and then convene a meeting with the leaders of the three pioneering groups."

"Whether those guys are after the Fifth Secret Realm or East Sea City, I will absolutely not let them succeed!"

"Our Donghai City has produced someone like Chu Qingcheng..."

"There is only one Chu Qingcheng in the Tang Kingdom."

"Donghai City will absolutely not disgrace him!"

Upon hearing the name "Chu Qingcheng," Old Qin's brows relaxed, and his eyes gleamed with admiration.

Ugh……

If Chu Qingcheng were still here, how wonderful that would be!

……

Moonlight is like water.

Fang Qingqing stood by the window, looking at the river flowing not far away.

After hesitating for a moment, she dialed a number.

Right in front of her, a screen of light appeared.

On the screen, a woman in a fiery red dress sat on a sofa, looking at Fang Qingqing with some surprise.

The woman was extremely beautiful, with a face as white as jade and skin as smooth as cream, so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch.

Her eyes, in particular, were playful and lively, like stars in the night sky; one glance was enough to captivate anyone.

She smiled slightly and said, "Oh, we've known each other for so many years, and this is the first time you've called me?"

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Fang Qingqing opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Hongxiu, the prescription you gave me is very effective. Xiaobu's injury should heal soon. Thank you."

Shen Hongxiu blinked: "What are you talking about? What prescription?"

Fang Qingqing was slightly taken aback: "Wasn't that guy with the ragdoll cat and slime sent by you?"

"Didn't you provide him with the prescription and methods for treating Xiao Bu?"

"What Ragdoll cat? What slime?" Shen Hongxiu frowned slightly and said, "When did I send anyone to look for you?"

"The person you're talking about, the one who healed the goblin's wounds?"

"Yes." Fang Qingqing's expression shifted slightly. "You didn't send them?"

"But he knew everything about Xiao Bu and Yin Yue's injuries."

"It's clear that Xiao Bu was injured by the Golden Horned Beast and Yin Yue was injured by the Fire Spirit."

"How could someone who isn't one of yours know these things?"

Shen Hongxiu laughed: "Qingqing, I'm very sorry about the golden horned beast injuring the goblin's heart."

"In fact, I've been researching and searching for people these past few days, trying to find a way to cure goblins."

"Unfortunately, I searched through all the relevant information and even consulted the strongest beast tamer in my family, but I still couldn't find a proper solution."

"I would be very happy if someone could heal the goblin for you."

"But I really didn't do it."

"You know my personality. I, Shen Hongxiu, have always been someone who dares to take responsibility for my actions."

"Let alone helping someone, even if it were murder or arson, if I, Shen Hongxiu, had done it, would I not dare to admit it?"

"I understand." Fang Qingqing hung up the phone, her face slightly flushed.

Thinking back to that day by the Shenxing River, when she misunderstood and doubted that guy, she felt like she wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear.

Not only did they misunderstand the other person, they also took their kindness for granted...

Recalling her attitude and words that day, Fang Qingqing couldn't help but purse her lips and lightly punch the wall with her fist.

"He has no relation to Hongxiu. So, according to Grandpa Zhang, he is a beast-breeding prodigy."

"But how is that possible..."

"He just came from out of town."

Fang Qingqing suddenly felt a sense of mystery surrounding the guy with the wicked grin on his face, and had an urge to find out more.

The assessment will end the day after tomorrow morning.

Fang Qingqing blinked...

I'll get up a little earlier the day after tomorrow and go check out the reception square!

If possible, bring him to the War God Academy!

……

Inside the safe house.

Chen Fan turned on his computer and logged into the Beast Taming Forum.

The poster in the first post looks familiar.

The unseen smirk: "One of my underlings farts loudly and stinkyly, while my farts are light and bland. What should I do to save face?"

This guy's question is truly refreshing and unique.

Chen Fan moved his fingers a few times and typed a few words.

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "Ask him for the formula."

The unseen slut: "Damn it, it's you again!"

The most handsome man on Earth's planet, his father: "Yeah, we meet again... Little slut, are you still freeloading everywhere?"

"By the way, Little Rascal, I have a question for you. In Donghai City, are there many people who own three beasts by the age of seventeen or eighteen?"

"Screw you! Don't call me 'little slut'!" The Invisible Slut: "Seventeen or eighteen years old and possessing three tamed beasts? That's genius among geniuses! In the entire East Sea City, there are only seven people who are seventeen or eighteen years old and possess three tamed beasts!"

Unfortunately, I am one of them.

The dad of the most handsome man on Earth: "It's so dark..."

The Invisible Scoundrel: "Nonsense, it's already night, of course it's dark!"

The number one handsome man on Earth's father: "Huh? Is it really nighttime? I thought you were exaggerating and blocking out the sun."

"You brat!" The unseen rascal said, "I can tell you're new here from out of town just from asking that question. I'm a magnanimous man, I won't bully a newbie like you, I won't bother with a newbie like you."

"Anyway, you'll find out later that I'm quite famous in Donghai City!"

"I hope you don't wet your pants in fear when the time comes!"

Seeing that Chen Fan didn't react, the unseen figure circled him and then spoke up: "Hey, newbie, my professor at the academy always likes to wrong me. What's a good way to change his opinion of me?"

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "Did you get caught peeping in the women's bathhouse? Well, there's nothing I can do about it. The evidence is overwhelming, you can't clear your name even if you jump into the Yellow River."

The unseen slut: "Get lost!"

Chen Fan closed the post and continued reading the information.

But a little while later, the unseen flirt tagged him again: "Recently, I've been thinking about writing an autobiography."

The father of Earth's most handsome man: "My days as a mere figurehead on Earth?"

The unseen slut: "Get lost!"

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "A life of just loafing around and waiting to die?"

The unseen flirt: "..."

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "How is steel forged to turn yellow?"

The unseen smirk circled Chen Fan's face: "Sigh, I've been spending money like water lately, and I can barely keep my three tamed beasts alive... In a couple of days, I'm planning to go out of the city with the pioneering team to try and catch something big."

"Little newbie, I'll take you to the pioneering team later."

"Ordinary people can't get into the pioneering team!"

"I'm different; I have connections!"

The number one handsome man on Earth's father: "Little slut, are you a boy or a girl? Is the person on top of you a boy or a girl?"

The unseen jerk: "Damn it, I think you're just as annoying as Chu Xuan!"

"Don't call me 'little slut' again, or I'll destroy you!"

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "Who is Chu Xuan?"

"You can call me that too... Since the last character of your nickname is 'sao' (骚), I'll call you 'Little Sao' (小骚). The last character of my nickname is 'Die' (爹), so you can call me 'Little Dad' (小爹)."

The unseen slut: "You damn newbie... In Donghai City, you're the first person to dare take advantage of me."

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "Isn't this just to seem more approachable?"

The unseen slut: "Be friendly my ass!"

"Speaking of Chu Xuan... hehe, you'll see him soon enough."

"That was the most arrogant and annoying guy ever."

"He looks like a woman, wears a red cloak, and rides a heavy beetle king through the streets. He's incredibly annoying."

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "..."

The boy in the red cloak, his real name is Chu Xuanyao?

It seems that Xiao Sao is Chu Xuan's mortal enemy; she harbors such a deep grudge against him.

The unseen sly one: "By the way, newbie, don't you realize you're already in danger?"

The father of Earth's most handsome man: "What crisis?"

The Invisible Flirt: "Your name... When I registered for the forum, I wanted to register as 'The Most Handsome Man on Earth,' but I found that the name had already been taken."

"After doing some research, I found that the 'Most Handsome Man on Earth' is someone who appeared in the early days of the forum, and seems to be a super big shot..."

"Because I saw that his posts were all very profound and mysterious, and then there were a bunch of people flattering him in the comments."

"You dare to name yourself 'The Most Handsome Dad on Earth'? Haha, I bet you're in for a rough time!"

"Hahahahaha!"

The father of the most handsome man on Earth: "..."

Just as Chen Fan remained silent, a large number of comments suddenly appeared below.

"You 'invisible slut,' who the hell are you? Get the hell out here and I'll beat the shit out of you!"

"You complete idiot, how dare you mock my Chu Xuan? You're asking for trouble!"

"This kind of person is miserable in real life, so they can only come online to be a troll and a hater... Do you think he dares to use his real name?"

"Sisters, lift up that 'invisible slut' and ban him!"

"Get a few people with strong cybersecurity skills to check his IP address and his website. We have to find this bastard... and then kill him!"

Posts kept popping up.

Chen Fan glanced at them and saw that they were all female profile pictures.

Wow, Chu Xuan is really popular with girls.

Can't afford to offend them, can't afford to offend them...

Soon, the invisible slut started arguing with a group of girls.

However, one man can't fight against many. His comment was immediately flooded with countless replies.

"This guy, he's in such a sorry state..."

Chen Fan closed the post immediately.
