"It is a sacred beast in its infant stage." A light flashed through Jun Luoyu's eyes as he slowly said, "This magus beast is still weak and not scary, but there is an adult spirit beast Green-Winged Grey Wolf with him. They are also hiding deep within the Xiangnan Forest which has greatly increased the difficulty of the search. What we need is the people from the major mercenary companies and the nearby powers."

Pausing, Jun Luoyu said, "The Radiance Magus Church only needs that infant stage magus beast which has some special abilities. The Green-Winged Grey Wolf goes to whoever captures it. However, everyone should know the depths of the Xiangnan forest are dangerous. There is still time to leave if you want to."

While he did say this, after the explanation, the breathing of the leaders in the tent deepened. Ambitious light flashed across each person's eyes.

Of those that come, other than the Radiance Magus Church behind Jun Luoyu, there were seven other factions. The three big mercenary companies of the continent, the nobilities of the Kaya Empire, the Mo, Su, and Xu Families, and the Qin Clan of the Qin City which Qin Wu was leader of. However, Qin Wu could not represent the main Qin Family. This could only be said to be a private mission for a cadet branch. Therefore, he could not rely on the power of the Qin Family and he feared Jun Luoyu.

"Holy Emperor Daren, it is our honor to serve the Radiance Magus Church!" The people didn't even think before they expressed their decision.

Aofeng silently listened as she stood behind Jun Luoyu. She was also astounded. According to Aofeng's memories, the value of a sacred beast could not be measured using wealth. If it was sent to some underground auctions in the empire, it could be sold for millions of obsidians! And there would be a great market with no supply!

In the currency of this world, obsidian was at the top of the pyramid. 100 gold coins could be traded to one gem coin. 100 gem coins could be traded for one obsidian. If this amount was turned into gold coins, how many buildings would it fill?

Adult spirit beasts were what people wanted but could not get. Infant magus beasts usually did not have any offensive abilities and, in normal circumstances, one would need to wait five to ten years to nurture and train them. Adult magic beasts could be used immediately by magisters after being tamed. The Green-Winged Grey Wolf belonged to the Tungsten Wolf Family. They were strong offensive fighters, their shape claws and fangs able to tear apart the battle armor of sacred swordsmen. They could also fly in the air using their wings.

So what if it was dangerous. Who would retreat with such great rewards?

A few hints of anticipation flashed through Aofeng's eyes. If she could have a flying magus beast like this to ride and fly everywhere, that would probably be more enjoyable than flying on an airplane? As she was thinking, that warm and clear soul sound transmission came to her ear.

"If you want the Green-Winged Grey Wolf, I'll capture it for you."

Raising her eyes, she saw Jun Luoyu looking at her with a smile as though he saw her thought. His expression was thoughtful but serious. Even busy in such a high-level meeting, he had been paying attention to her and not forgotten her.

He spoke so lightly of something that other people treated like treasure, saying that he would give it. His attitude was so relaxed it was frightening. If someone else present heard this, they would spit up blood in anger.

Smiling slightly, Aofeng shook her head.

It was not that she was generous or that Jun Luoyu was joking. If it was possible, of course she did not want to refuse. However, she did not have the ability at present. Not just spirit beasts, she was unable to control even an one-star magus beast. Even though she had shed the label of good-for-nothing, due to Qin Aofeng's strange body, she was still unable to gather magic and could not become a magister. If the Green-Winged Grey Wolf was tamed and given to her, she could only stare at it.
