Chapter 364 - 215: My Name Is Tao En

Chapter 364: Chapter 215: My Name Is Tao En

The frequent infighting within the Zhou Family Main Lineage over the past two years was because the Elder Council was about to decide on the new generation’s Young Master of the Family.

The exceptionally talented youths from the branch lineages who weren’t chosen by one of the candidates for Young Master of the Family never tended to live long.

When the Split-mouthed Iguana saw Zhou Yang summon his Guardian Beast, it grew even more savage and excited.

The appearance of this Guardian Beast meant it was about to get an extra meal.

The Split-mouthed Iguana’s Tongue Blade shot toward Zhou Yang like lightning.

A piercing sound of displaced air whistled past Zhou Yang’s ear as the sharp Tongue Blade ran straight through his shoulder.

Just then, a deer with limbs like sharp swords emerged from the void.

With a light flick of its sword-like hoof, it easily severed the part of the Split-mouthed Iguana’s Tongue Blade that had pierced Zhou Yang’s shoulder.

Once the Tongue Blade was cut, blood sprayed everywhere.

The Split-mouthed Iguana writhed in agony on the roof of the Guardian Beast Vehicle.

The moment Zhong Yi saw the message from Zhou Yang, they immediately found their strongest subordinate, Tao En.

They sent Tao En to rendezvous with Zhou Yang at the location he had just sent.

Tao En had rushed over as fast as he could, but he hadn’t expected Zhou Yang to already be injured.

Fortunately, Zhou Yang’s life wasn’t in danger.

With Zhong Yi’s Healing Ability, Zhou Yang’s wounds could be easily healed.

Tao En was now a Six-finger Creator, a status equivalent to an expert at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level.

Forget the Xin Xia Federation; throughout the entire Guardian Beast World, likely only Zhong Yi could afford to dispatch a Six-finger Creator for such an errand.

Tao En didn’t find the task Zhong Yi assigned him the least bit inappropriate.

Tao En was very satisfied with his current life in Starlight City.

Ever since Tao Niannian started attending Starlight Academy, she had made many new friends, and the smiles on her face were far more frequent than before.

Moreover, Tao En was immensely grateful to Zhong Yi. Not only had Zhong Yi saved his life, but they had also helped him advance to the level of a Six-finger Creator.

Soon after joining Zhong Yi’s faction, Tao En realized that what the faction needed most right now wasn’t High Tier Combat Power.

First, the faction Zhong Yi had established, Soul Soil, was based in Starlight City, which was protected by Star Night, an expert at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level.

There was no need to worry about security at all.

Second, now that he was a Six-finger Creator, it would be easy for him to help Zhong Yi cultivate high-end combat power.

What Zhong Yi’s faction needed most at the moment were clear-headed administrators and executors with foresight and management skills.

After learning that Zhou Yang was exactly this kind of talent, Tao En had set out immediately to provide support.

Tao En sat atop his Lifebound Guardian Beast, the Shadow Horned Deer.

The Blood-Seeking Sword-Hoof Deer was slightly faster than the Shadow Horned Deer, which was why it had arrived on the battlefield first.

As for Tao En’s other Guardian Beast, the Swift Emperor Halberd Deer, he hadn’t summoned it.

The Swift Emperor Halberd Deer’s Bloodline was currently undergoing a transformation. Once its Bloodline successfully transformed,

Tao En could try to have it make a push for the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level ahead of his others.

Tao En paid no mind to the Mythical Tier assassin the Zhou Family had sent to kill Zhou Yang.

Judging by the Split-mouthed Iguana the Taming Master was using, Tao En knew that whoever in the Zhou Family wanted Zhou Yang dead didn’t take him seriously at all.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dispatched a Mythical Tier assassin with such a weak foundation.

This Split-mouthed Iguana had already reached the Mythical Tier, yet its body length didn’t exceed six meters.

Its Bloodline had clearly transformed twice at most.

With such poor nurturing, the Guardian Beast’s potential had been exhausted the moment it reached the Mythical Tier.

It had no possibility of ever advancing to the Immortal Tier!

’I thought I was about to die,’ Zhou Yang thought. ’I never expected someone would save me at the last moment.’

’The Zhou Family used to be the backing I relied on, but now they’re the ones trying to eliminate me.’

’With no one else to depend on, it’s obvious that this expert, whose power is beyond my comprehension, must have been sent by Zhong Yi.’

"Who are you? The Zhou Family is cleaning house!"

"You dare meddle in the Zhou Family’s private affairs? Aren’t you afraid of their retaliation?"

The Split-mouthed Iguana was a Guardian Beast that relied on its Tongue Blade for combat; it could be considered its strongest offensive weapon.

Its entire tongue had been severed from the middle. If only a small part had been lost, there might have been a chance of recovery.

But now, the Split-mouthed Iguana was basically crippled.

Completely powerless to fight back, the man sent to assassinate Zhou Yang could only resort to using the Zhou Family’s name. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Hearing this, Tao En frowned and said,

"The Zhou Family’s private affairs? You mean sending assassins to execute your most talented young members?"

"I’ve really seen it all today. I’ve never seen a great and noble family act the way your Zhou Family does."

Tao En paid no mind to the threat in the man’s words, not even bothering to argue.

The Zhou Family was a prestigious clan rooted in the Royal Capital, and they operated the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce.

Not only had the Zhou Family produced a Celestial Destiny Seeker, but they also had good relationships with several Five-finger Creators.

Under the Zhou Family’s full support, the productivity of these Five-finger Creators was almost entirely dedicated to them.

The scale of the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce was nearly on par with the Jinglong Commerce Association, founded by Cao Xing’an.

Back when Tao En was a Five-finger Peak Creator, he had already surpassed Cao Xing’an. Even then, he had no fear of the Zhou Family.

If the Zhou Family’s Elder Council were to learn that someone from the main lineage had offended a Five-finger Creator...

It wouldn’t even have to be a Five-finger Peak Creator. To avoid earning that Five-finger Creator’s enmity, the Elder Council...
