Du Nanfeng was ecstatic. He did not expect Lin Mo to be so capable. The latter really got him a top-grade tier five demonic beast in such a short time.

“Owner Lin, I don’t know how to thank you. You’ve really helped me out!”

If a person could not obtain top-grade medicinal pills, they could take their time to collect them. After all, one could still cultivate without them, just slower.

However, demonic beasts were different. They had violent personalities. Even if they were tamed and contracted, it would be difficult to change their bestial nature. If they did not receive their required vitality, they would not be able to suppress their demonic qi. This would cause them to explode and die.

The black-blood tiger was the most important demonic beast to the Du family. It allowed them to contend with the other three great families. In short, they needed its powerful combat strength.

Since they could not find any high-level demonic beasts, the Du family reluctantly gathered tier three or four demonic beasts to replace them. Of course, that was not enough for the black-blood tiger to develop further.

Tier five demonic beasts were not easy to find. Moreover, there were other families who were hostile towards them, especially the Miao family. They would definitely interfere and not let the Du family succeed easily.

If the black-blood tiger really broke through, Du Nanfeng’s strength would increase by a lot. There was no way the other families would just sit and watch.

Du Nanfeng seemed to have made up his mind.

“Owner Lin, if you want to learn how to tame beasts, I’m willing to give you the Beast Taming Manual.”

Even Du Wan was quite shocked to hear this.

The Du family was able to establish a foothold in Qingyang City because of their unique beast-taming abilities. The Beast Taming Manual was only passed down to the Du family. An ordinary disciple would not be able to learn it.

Du Nanfeng continued in a deep voice, “Owner Lin is our great benefactor. With this top-grade tier 5 beast, I think the black-blood tiger will be able to have a successful breakthrough.”

It might not be possible with an ordinary tier five demonic beast. However, this beast was top-grade! In fact, it’s almost tier six. It should be a sufficient meal for the black-blood tiger.

As the head of the family, Du Nanfeng’s words carried a lot of weight. He meant what he said.

“If this is the clan head’s decision, then we have no objections.”

This was a pleasant surprise for Lin Mo. He never expected Du Nanfeng to be so generous.

“Thank you for your good intentions.”

Lin Mo also handed over the interspatial ring that was on his hand.

“These are the things that you’ve asked me to collect previously. They are all stored in this ring.”

A look of surprise flashed across Du Nanfeng’s face as he took the ring. There were medicinal pills, strengthening ingredients, and all sorts of heavenly treasures inside. He did not expect Lin Mo to collect them so quickly.

“According to our previous agreement, I will heighten the lookout fish’s bloodline. To do so, for the next one and a half months, the lookout fish will have to stay here. It will be in my care.”

“No problem.”

Lin Mo was not worried that Du Nanfeng would go back on his words or harm the lookout fish. After all, the two of them had already made a deal and the latter was not a short-sighted person.

An ordinary person could only contract one life-bound demonic beast. The black-blood tiger had already expended a lot of the Du family’s resources, so nurturing the lookout fish was a small matter.

After a period of time, the lookout fish would complete its transformation and become even stronger. When that time came, Lin Mo could not wait to see it fight again. The lookout fish would definitely turn the tides of battles.

After Lin Mo left, Du Wan asked in a confused tone, “Father, even if you are grateful to Lin Mo, you can just give him some magic tools and elixirs. Why did you offer him the Du family’s precious Beast Taming Manual?”

Du Nanfeng narrowed his eyes and asked in return, “Do you think he is lacking in these things?”

Lin Mo had held auctions every so often and the items were frequently tier five or six. Clearly, he had an impressive stash.

“He probably doesn’t even need the manual. It’s meaningless to him.”

“Even so, to pass the Beast Taming Manual to an outsider…”

Before Du Wan could finish his sentence, Du Nanfeng interrupted him.

“You are still too young. We need to see the bigger picture. I’m doing this for our own good as well. If we build a good relationship with a strong person, the Du family will become even more powerful in the future.”

Du Wan did not expect his father to think so highly of Lin Mo.

Du Nanfeng could see that Du Wan was confused. So, he continued, “It has only been a short period of time. Yet, Lin Mo was able to bring us a tier 5 top-grade demonic beast. From this, I could tell that he’s not an ordinary person.”

“However, according to our investigation, he is not even favored by the Lin family. He might be a genius, but that was in the past.”

Du Nanfeng shook his head.

“No, you’re wrong.”

He added earnestly, “This world is full of geniuses. What makes Lin Mo different is that he fell to rock bottom, but he managed to get up again. It’s admirable. At the same time, people like him are the most terrifying.”
