'Wait a minute!'

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Zhan Tianming's mind, and he realized something.

'Has he caught Dogegg?'

'Otherwise, how could've Dogegg gone missing.'

His own thoughts infuriated him to no end. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to rush up to Zhang Yong and kill him in the most brutal way possible.

Despite his anger, his rationality held him back.

Zhang Yong was a nine-star Martial Practitioner.

That was true strength.

Also, he had Liu Yu as a hostage.

If he rushed over recklessly, not only would he die in Zhang Yong's hands, but he could also cause Liu Yu's death.

He absolutely could not do such a foolish thing.

'Calm the fuck down, Zhan Tianming!'

The state of utter tranquillity he used to have while playing games took over his mind.

He did not act rashly.

Besides, this was not the time to be impulsive.

Dying here would be like dying at the hands of an NPC ant.

He began to plot his course of action.

Meanwhile, he didn't forget to act as if he was still unaware of Zhang Yong's presence. Since he could make the vicious and demonic beasts dance to his whims, he was still no different from how he was a day or two ago. Nothing changed—he still followed the same route, tamed the same kinds of beasts, and acted the same as always.

Slowly, a large group of wild beasts and vicious beasts began following Zhan Tianming.

Before long, they numbered up to a hundred.

He began to control the monster horde, sweeping toward places that had not been cleared before.

"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!"

"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!"

The roar of the beasts shook the mountains.

"Ding dong..."

"Ding dong..."

"Ding dong..."

The system notifications were a never-ending mess.

"Hundred Beasts Extermination!"

Rumble...

Once the punch was thrown, the beasts would die, no doubt.

After obtaining a 100% chance to control demonic beasts below the Third Grade, Zhan Tianming fiercely rushed out.

This was because he saw a powerful demonic beast he could control.

As long as he could control that demonic beast, he could start his plan of retaliating against Zhang Yong.

"Humph! Zhang Yong, this daddy here will blow you up soon."

"Just you wait!"

Just as Zhan Tianming was about to charge toward the demonic beast, it also crazily rushed over.

It was an Arrowwolf.

The Arrowwolf had the characteristics of a wolf, but it had a more streamlined body compared to a regular demonic wolf. When it ran, its fur would dance in the wind like fire, which further increased its speed.

While running, it looked like a sharp arrow shooting toward its target.

Beast Control had a limited range, and after Zhan Tianming felt the Arrowwolf's speed, he couldn't help but be shocked.

'Fast! It's really fast!'

It was at least three times faster than his own Nine Dragons Step.

However...

This was exactly the speed he wanted.

Zhan Tianming was completely focused.

In his mind, he had already calculated the speed at which the Beat Control would take effect once it was activated. At the same time, he quickly calculated the Arrowwolf's speed.

'Closer...'

'Closer...'

"Beast Control!"

It was an incomparably precise calculation of time.

Just as the Arrowwolf was about to enter the range of the Beast Control, Zhan Tianming activated it.

The Beast Control skill's light just brushed the Arrowwolf before it pounced out.

"Phew..."

Zhan Tianming moved backward, dodging the Arrowwolf's pounce that couldn't be stopped because of its inertia.

Swish!

The Arrowwolf flew above Zhan Tianming's head as fast as lightning.

At the same time, Zhan Tianming also transmitted his thoughts.

After receiving the order, the Arrowwolf did not stop. It continued to rush forward.

The direction in which it was moving was precisely the place where Zhang Yong and Zhang Yong were.

"Stop right there!" Zhan Tianming purposely shouted as he ran to catch up.

On the other hand, the Arrowwolf continued to run.

This scene stunned Zhang Yong.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the Arrowwolf had already pounced on him.

"Roar!"

The Arrowwolf pounced forward and bit at Zhang Yong furiously.

Zhang Yong instinctively dodged.

The Arrowwolf then turned around and threw itself at Liu Yu, who couldn't move.

Liu Yu's eyes were wide open, and he thought, 'It's over.'

At this moment!

The Arrowwolf suddenly arched its back, causing Liu Yu to fly out.

Zhan Tianming, who was following closely behind, took a step forward.

Nine Dragons Step!

His figure flashed forward like lightning.

Whoosh!

Zhan Tianming steadily caught the incoming Liu Yu.

Everything was done in a flash.

By the time Zhang Yong found out that he had been tricked, it was already too late.

"Damn it!"

Zhang Yong was furious.

The first time he followed Zhan Tianming, he had already been tricked once. Unexpectedly, he was tricked once again.

It was so sudden and unexpected that Zhang Yong didn't even have the time to think.

After all, Zhan Tianming controlled the Arrowwolf in the blink of an eye. Who could expect that?

Such a strange beast control technique was simply unheard-of.

At the same time, Zhang Yong was enraged and even a bit shocked.

"Dogegg, are you alright?" Zhan Tianming looked at Liu Yu.

Liu Yu could not speak. Nor could he move.

Zhan Tianming immediately understood and immediately used Nine Dragons Finger.

Puff! Puff!

With two jabs, Liu Yu could move again.

However, he had consumed the pill and still couldn't speak.

"Mmm, mmm..."

Liu Yu made a noise as he gestured like a mime.

Zhan Tianming looked at Liu Yu's actions and quickly understood.

Crack...

He clenched his fist, and a crisp sound of joints cracking echoed out.

In his eyes, a raging fire rose.

The killing intent spread endlessly in his heart.

Seeing Zhan Tianming's expression, Zhang Yong did not reveal any signs of panic and seemed very calm.

In fact, there was even a hint of greed in his eyes.

"Old fart, did you kill Third Uncle Mu?" Zhan Tianming asked angrily.

Zhang Yong grinned and said, "That's right. I killed him."

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations! Host Zhan Tianming, you have completed the quest of finding the murderer. You are rewarded with 10,000 experience points."

Zhan Tianming didn't feel an ounce of happiness despite completing a rewarding mission.

There was only this monstrous rage in his heart.

He gritted his teeth, his fists cracking. "Were you the one who killed my father and mother as well?"

"Hmm?" Zhang Yong was slightly startled.

Zhan Tianming did not care about Zhang Yong's expression. He continued in a heavy voice, "Before the incident, my father and mother both came to your house to have a meal. Did you put that powder in their food? Also, did you put the same drug in the cup of wine I drank?"

Hearing Zhan Tianming's words, Zhang Yong was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"Haha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"I really didn't expect that you would know all about it!"

Before, Zhang Yong did not know that the drug he put in Zhan Tianming's wine was discovered by Fu Shiyao.

Hearing his laughter, Zhan Tianming's guesses were finally confirmed.

Anger!

That was the only emotion he felt.

The flames of rage were monstrous!

Zhang Yong was really the murderer!

'Kill him!'

'I must kill him, take revenge for my parents, and avenge Third Uncle Mu.'

'No!'

'Wait...'

Zhan Tianming suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at Zhang Yong. He asked angrily, "Who exactly is behind all this?"

Zhan Tianming was clear on this one point.

It was definitely impossible for Zhang Yong to accomplish this alone.

After all, the Zhan Family Bloodline mission required him to save a hundred people within three years.

With Zhang Yong's puny strength, how could he threaten the entire Zhan family?

There must be someone behind him!

Who was that person?
