Even though Cheng Tang treated Zerg Five this way, and even had the intention to kill it, he still regarded Zerg Five as his exclusive property.
As his property, he could throw it away, kill it, and starve it to death. He could put it in a prison for others to watch and marvel at the existence of this new species, but he would never allow anyone to take it away.
Not even the corpse!
Not to mention that it was alive!
This was something he would never allow. If he could not get it, even if he had to destroy it, he would not let anyone else get it!
This was the mentality.
To be honest, he had never thought that someone would be able to take away Zerg Five.
This monster was really too arrogant. It was about to die, but it still did not lower its head. It could clearly live as long as it signed a contract.
Therefore, when he saw that Li Song had taken away the beast that he viewed as his exclusive property, the anger in his heart was indescribable.
Li Song turned around and squinted at the two people walking towards him. He seemed to have guessed something.
The two of them walked in. The young man was tall, almost 1.9 meters tall, and his muscles were prominent. At this moment, he was looking at Li Song like a hawk looking at a wolf.
He ordered, "Release the monster!"
The middle-aged man beside him also looked at him curiously, as if he had not expected someone to be able to bring the huge spider away.
He did not have the ability to control the whole country. He only had some connections in the military, and after some exchange of benefits, he took over this rescue home. He was a smart person, and he had long seen a huge business opportunity from it. If he handled it well, it would be enough for the entire family to rise to another level!
He had never thought about whether he would be able to survive the three-month protection period. There were tens of millions of people in Shanghai, and there would always be someone stronger to defend them.
If not for this, it would have been impossible for him to let his nephew come into contact with the Earth Dragon early on, or even directly complete the contract—there were many people watching this Tamed Beast.
In essence, it was just an exchange of resources. Although Earth Dragons were good, in terms of the only new species in the world, the balance between the two was shifted. Many people had their eyes on this spider, but they could not sign a contract even after using various methods. They even realized that it was very aggressive.
The current mission was so important that it was impossible to give them time to nurture the relationship bit by bit. In addition, the aggressive beasts were not suitable to follow orders. In the end, they gave up—at least on the surface.
His nephew's plan to starve it was approved by some people.
However, he did not expect someone to steal their success like this.
Therefore, he did not say anything and quietly watched the situation develop.
Seeing that Li Song was silent, Cheng Tang said unhappily, "Didn't you hear me? I told you to let it out!"
"What?" Li Song raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Who do you think you are?"
He said the most vicious thing with the mildest expression.
For a moment, Cheng Tang actually choked. He completely did not expect such words to come out of this harmless-looking fellow's mouth. He paused and said, "I am the master of that monster!"
"Oh?" Li Song smiled, "It's mine now."
"And if I remember correctly, this should be the Stray Beast Rescue Home, right?"
Li Song deliberately emphasized the word 'stray'. The meaning was obvious.
Cheng Tang's expression darkened as he said coldly, "I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to let it out or not?"
Li Song's expression darkened, "Who do you think you are?"
"You want me to release it just like that?"
"What a joke!"
Cheng Tang's expression changed. Anger filled his chest and his face flushed red, "You…!"
Some people in the surroundings were paying attention to this place, so his voice was slightly suppressed.
"I'll tell you one last time. Let it go and I'll pretend this never happened."
"Otherwise…"
"In this chaotic world, it's normal for someone to die. You should know that, right?"
Li Song was stunned, then shook his head.
There was a smile on his face, like the spring breeze. A cold glint flashed across his eyes, "You can try."
"You're courting death!"
Cheng Tang did not know why, but when he saw Li Song's smiling face, he was furious. He exerted strength in his hands and stepped forward.
If I can't beat you in words, can't I beat you to death?
He was a lawless person on Earth and was famous in the Shanghai young master circle. How could he tolerate this?
However, just as he was about to move, a figure blocked his path.
It was his uncle.
"Little brother, aren't you going to consider it?"
"As long as you're willing to release it, I can personally give you a million yuan as compensation!"
Liu Zhiyou grinned: "Harmony leads to wealth. You'll have to spend quite a bit of money to raise this beast if you bring it back. Why don't you just let it go and take the money? One million is enough for you to raise your own beast."
His voice was not soft, and the surrounding people exclaimed in surprise.
One million was not a small amount!
They looked at Li Song as if he was a lucky chap.
Some people started to regret it. If they had realized that the lock was so unreliable, the money might have been theirs!
Liu Zhiyou narrowed his eyes and smiled like a Buddha. He had a good plan.
After it was released, even if he could not use this chance to let the people in the military tame it, he could still use it to bring popularity to his new Tamed Beast Shop!
Although he had agreed with his nephew previously, how could he bear to kill such a priceless monster?
Li Song's expression did not change, but his gaze swept over Cheng Tang behind him, feeling some pity in his heart.
He was not a fool. There would be problems if he attacked here.
But… self-defense was fine.
What a pity.
He looked at the middle-aged man and said calmly, "There's no need for that."
"Help yourself then," Liu Zhiyou's face was still filled with an amiable smile as he reminded: "Remember to register when you're outside."
Li Song nodded and left.
"Uncle, you…" Seeing Li Song leave, Cheng Tang could no longer sit still.
"Shut up!" Liu Zhiyou's expression changed: "You still want to fight? Do you know where this is?"
"If you really make a move here, you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
Cheng Tang naturally knew what this meant and said, "But he…"
Then, he seemed to have thought of something, "Uncle, you mean…?"
Liu Zhiyou's expression did not change. He said with deep meaning, "Send a few people to follow him… This society is not as simple as he thinks."
In his opinion, it was better to take it away forcefully!
When they were outside, wouldn't that weak guy be at his mercy?
He could even secretly put away the monster and wait for everything to stabilize before taking it out. Who would be able to say for sure then?
This was a business worth tens of millions!
"Alright!"
Cheng Tang's face immediately brightened up, "Uncle, you're the best!"
Liu Zhiyou had a self-satisfied expression on his face as he answered: "You still have a lot to learn."
With that said, he continued to teach his nephew.
"Also, don't get involved in this, in case something goes wrong."
"Hurry up and prepare for the trial of the Night Suppression Division. With your Earth Dragon's aptitude, you'll definitely pass!"
"This Night Suppression Division is not that simple!"
Cheng Tang nodded, "Understood!"
Liu Zhiyou looked at the youth who was walking far away, as if he was already seeing a fortune waving at him.
Harmony led to wealth!
As he was thinking, he saw that the young man turned around, revealed a warm smile towards them, and even waved his hand to say goodbye.
For some reason, Liu Zhiyou shivered after seeing this, despite his ample experience in society.
