Beastmaster, a Secondary Profession

[Binding...]

[Binding successful]

In an instant, Yang Ling seemed to establish some kind of connection with the Queen Red Gold Mantis Egg.

Before long, a little creature broke out of the egg, devoured the shell clean, and finally hopped into Yang Ling's hand.

It looked much like an ordinary Red Gold Mantis, except its entire body was crystal-clear white jade, like a gemstone.

[Please name it]

It needed a name too?

Yang Ling's expression shifted. He sized up the little creature, thought for a moment, and said,

"Xiao Bai it is."

[Naming successful]

An Attribute Panel slowly appeared:

Queen Red Gold Mantis: Xiao Bai

Level: 1

Strength: 5

Agility: 10

Spirit: 2

Special Skill: Gold Seeking

"It has a level too? That means it can level up..."

Yang Ling was pleasantly surprised.

This was good. Spirit pets capable of leveling up were usually valuable, with greater potential.

Moreover, Xiao Bai's attributes surprised him.

It had just been born, yet it already possessed 5 points of Strength and 10 points of Agility.

Its Spirit was a little low, but that did not matter.

A spirit pet could not exactly practice martial arts.

"Xiao Bai."

Yang Ling called out experimentally.

Xiao Bai immediately looked at him, appearing exceptionally intelligent.

"Show me your speed."

Yang Ling said.

Without hesitation, Xiao Bai flew from his hand, circled the area several times like lightning, then returned to Yang Ling's palm.

"It's incredibly fast—faster than an ordinary person with 10 points of Agility!"

A grave expression appeared on Yang Ling's face.

When he circulated his technique, his Agility could reach 20 points, yet he still did not feel as fast as Xiao Bai.

"You have another skill. Gold Seeking... does that mean you can find Red Gold Ore?"

Yang Ling smiled. "Use your skill."

Xiao Bai seemed not to understand.

"Gold Seeking."

Yang Ling tried another way of saying it.

Xiao Bai immediately beat its wings and flew deeper into the mine.

Yang Ling picked up the Red Gold Ore Essence and followed behind Xiao Bai.

After walking roughly a dozen yards, Xiao Bai stopped at a certain spot, flapped its wings, and looked at Yang Ling.

Without another word, Yang Ling raised the Red Gold Pickaxe and started digging. After digging more than a meter deep, he really did find a huge chunk of Red Gold Ore.

"Amazing. With you around, I can save even more time mining!"

Yang Ling could not help praising it.

Then, with a thought, he immediately had Xiao Bai locate dozens more similar Red Gold Ore deposits.

Yang Ling promptly marked them on the system map, then opened his collar.

"You'll hide in here from now on."

Xiao Bai immediately flew into Yang Ling's collar and obediently curled itself into a ball.

"I'm someone with a spirit pet now too, haha."

Yang Ling smiled, then opened the Attribute Panel.

"Hm? Beastmaster?"

Yang Ling was somewhat surprised. His profession had unexpectedly gained Beastmaster.

Could this be a secondary profession?

His expression shifted as he glanced at the Divine Realm Level Rankings:

[Divine Realm Level Rankings]

[001: Nine Immortal Dao Palace, Lin Caiyi, Level 19, Profession: Taoist]

[002: Extreme Flame Sword Palace, Jiang Tian'ai, Level 18, Profession: Swordsman]

[003: Divine Sect, Zhang Shendao, Level 18, Profession: Assassin]

[009: Mountains and Rivers Sect, Wu Xiaocheng, Level 15, Profession: Blade Guard]

[010: Iron Garment Division, Qin Mo, Level 15, Profession: Constable]

"Fifth place. Besides, secondary professions aren't revealed on the Divine Realm Level Rankings."

Yang Ling fell into thought, and a trace of emotion suddenly rose within him.

Without realizing it, his level had already surpassed Hui Wu's.

The former number one could now only rank sixth.

Fang Qingyang sat behind his desk, occasionally glancing toward Mine Cave No. 1 from the corner of his eye.

Suddenly, he saw someone run out of the mine and shout,

"There are Ore Worms!"

Without another word, he immediately led people over.

"How are you all? What are the casualties!?"

Before he even reached them, Fang Qingyang was already shouting with concern written all over his face.

But when he drew near, he suddenly realized that the atmosphere was completely wrong.

More than four hundred miners stared at him silently.

Pale-faced Wang Er stood beside Yang Ling with his head lowered.

Fang Qingyang's heart skipped a beat. He forced out a smile.

"Supervisor Yang, you encountered Ore Worms? It looks like there weren't any major casualties."

Quite a few miners had already gathered around, watching curiously from nearby.

"Fang Qingyang, your crimes have been exposed."

Yang Ling said indifferently.

"Supervisor Yang, what did you say!?"

Fang Qingyang's expression changed.

"I don't understand."

"You don't understand? Then let everyone hear it together."

Yang Ling declared loudly,

"Red Gold Ore manager Fang Qingyang, for his own selfish desires, had Wang Er use Red Gold Ore Essence to lure the Red Gold Mantis Ore Worms.

Then he used pig's blood as bait, attempting to create a catastrophic mining disaster!"

"There is both witness testimony and physical evidence."

He looked at Fang Qingyang and took out the Red Gold Ore Essence. At the same time, Chen Xu and the others dumped all the Red Gold Mantis corpses onto the ground.

"Fang Qingyang, you're finished."

"..."

Fang Qingyang looked as though he had been struck by lightning.

He had never expected the Red Gold Mantises to be completely wiped out by them.

Even the Red Gold Ore Essence had fallen into their hands...

At first, the nearby miners had merely come to watch the excitement.

Gradually, their expressions became exceedingly ugly.

He had deliberately created a catastrophic mining disaster!?

He simply did not value their lives at all!

"I didn't do it! I never did such a thing!"

Fang Qingyang suddenly raised his head and glared coldly at Yang Ling.

"Yang Ling, don't frame me!"

"Manager Fang, let's admit it. We might receive a lighter sentence."

Wang Er said quietly.

"Who are you? I don't know you."

Fang Qingyang glanced at Wang Er, then said calmly,

"Supervisor Yang, if you don't want me here, I can resign. There's no need to frame me like this."

"Resign? In your dreams."

Yang Ling smiled faintly. "I am a constable of Green Mountain City. I am taking you and Wang Er to the Iron Garment Division in Green Mountain City right now."

Fang Qingyang's expression changed slightly. He had nearly forgotten the other man's identity.

"You can't arrest me on your own authority. I belong to Senior Brother Yang. If you want to arrest me, you need to ask him first!"

Fang Qingyang said instinctively.

"Yang Zhiwen? He's merely a disciple of the Mountains and Rivers Sect. Does the government need to ask him before handling its affairs?"

"What, does he intend to rebel?"

Yang Ling said with a faint smile.

Cold sweat poured down Fang Qingyang's body, and his legs went weak.

"That's not what I mean. Don't frame me..."

"And you? Did any of you conspire with him?"

Yang Ling looked toward the other managers.

The other eleven managers inhaled sharply and hurriedly waved their hands in denial.

"Fine. I'll take them back to Green Mountain City. Keep a closer eye on this place for me."

"If I come back and there's any more trouble..."

Yang Ling smiled. "You'll end up just like him."

As he spoke, his figure suddenly vanished from where he stood and appeared before Fang Qingyang.

Fang Qingyang instinctively tried to resist.

But before Yang Ling's current attributes, his resistance was nothing more than child's play.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

In the blink of an eye, Yang Ling had twisted both Fang Qingyang's arms and legs apart with his bare hands!

"Aaaahhh!"

Fang Qingyang collapsed to the ground in terror. Only several seconds later did he feel the piercing pain, letting out a miserable scream!

The eleven managers turned deathly pale at the sight.

They knew Fang Qingyang was a Martial Artist with some ability.

They had never expected him to be reduced to such a state in the blink of an eye.
