“Meow!”

When night fell, the Moonlight Elf let out a moan and slowly opened its eyes.

Upon seeing Jiang He, it immediately felt at ease.

“Little fellow, don’t scare me like this again.”

Jiang He finally heaved a sigh of relief. The weight in his heart had finally been lifted.

If he had known Ziyue would suffer such consequences, he would not participate in the Youth Tournament at all.

“Meow!”

Ziyue snorted.

It was not trying to purposely get hurt.

There was no point in feeling so dejected.

“Just be careful next time. I’ll get you some water.”

Jiang He picked up a cup and walked out.

There was a man in black at the door.

When he saw Jiang He, he walked over with a smile on his face.

“You’re Jiang He, right?”

“Yes?”

Jiang He had a bad feeling about this.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Wang Dahai, a representative from Haiping City’s Beastmaster Association.”

He continued, “Let me get straight to the point. Your Moonlight Elf may lose control of itself at any moment. For safety reasons, we’d like to take it with us. As compensation, we’ll provide you with a promising beast. It definitely won’t cause any dangers.”

“Get lost!”

Jiang He said bluntly.

Clearly, this man had hidden agendas.

He had probably already investigated them.

Jiang He contracted the Moonlight Elf in August. At that time, it was only a level five servant.

Gaining four levels in two months was almost unimaginable.

Only a mutated beast could achieve such a feat.

Basically, he only wanted the Moonlight Elf for its potential.

“Meow!”

Ziyue heard the commotion outside. It also sensed the anger in Jiang He’s heart.

The little fellow hopped off its bed and quickly went to its master’s side.

Suddenly, an emerald summoning circle appeared in front of the man. Then, a warlord-level Blade Mantis appeared.

The Moonlight Elf looked at the man in black and was about to attack.

However, it was immediately stopped by Jiang He.

They were in a hospital.

The man would not simply make a move.

Sure enough, he chuckled and said, “I’ve already given you a warning. Don’t blame me if something bad happens in the future. You’re still young. There are things that you can’t control.”

This was a blatant threat!

The man in black did not come with good intentions. He would even stoop so low and use violence.

“Get lost!”

Jiang He repeated.

He was furious!

Out of nowhere, a slender girl with delicate facial features appeared.

There was a huge white pigeon beside her.

“Senior Sister?”

“Miss White Pigeon?”

The man in black’s expression suddenly became gentle.

“Didn’t you hear what he said? Get lost.”

Normally, she looked lively and cute.

However, at this moment, her eyes were cold.

“How dare you threaten someone from the Abyss Investigation Bureau.”

“Huh? I’m sorry! I didn’t know he was under you! Jiang He, please accept my apologies!”

The man in black was terrified. He immediately bowed down.

Jiang He looked disgusted. Nonetheless, he did not say anything.

“Get lost!”

“I will! I’m leaving now!”

The man in black was relieved. He kept the Blade Mantis and ran away.

“Senior Sister, why are you here?”

Jiang He asked curiously.

“I came to personally deliver some medicine. How’s the Moonlight Elf? Junior Brother, do you feel touched?”

A bottle of medicine appeared in White Pigeon’s hand. The liquid inside was green. It did not look common at all.

“I am!”

Jiang He instantly nodded.

“This is an energy-stabilizing medicine. Try it!”

“Thank you.”

Jiang He thanked White Pigeon sincerely before taking the medicine.

He was really grateful for all her help.

“Meow…”

The Moonlight Elf licked a little bit of the medicine. It tasted bitter and slightly spicy.

Still, White Pigeon brought this over with good intentions, so the little fellow gulped it down.

“Senior Sister, are all the members in the Abyss Investigation Bureau as powerful as you?”

“Among the eight top beastmasters in eastern Xia, four are in our Investigation Bureau. More importantly, our chief is the strongest beastmaster in the world.”

White Pigeon giggled.

“I’m actually the weakest in the Investigation Bureau, but that’ll change soon!”

“What?”

This was completely unexpected.

White Pigeon was the weakest in the Abyss Investigation Bureau?

“That’s because you’ll be the weakest”

“Senior Sister, shouldn’t you at least evaluate my telepathy talent first? Maybe I can start off with being a civil servant.”

Jiang He no longer had any objections in terms of joining the Abyss Investigation Bureau.

If he joined, the Moonlight Elf and his safety would be ensured.

Secondly, he also wanted to explore the secrets of the abyss.

Lastly, he was grateful for his Senior Sister’s help.

“No problem. I can make the arrangements! A civil servant also has to show up on the scene! That’s the only way you can learn. Anyway, you don’t have to worry. I’ll protect you like a guardian angel from novels.”

White Pigeon patted her chest.

Jiang He thought that she was really broad-minded.

“Senior Sister, do you often read novels?”

“Yes, I like the Xianxia (TN: Cultivation) genre the most. Recently, I’ve been reading a book called ‘Stop Chasing Me, I’m Really Not A Demon.’. It’s really good.”

White Pigeon’s eyes revealed a smile.

“Meow!”

Jiang He and White Pigeon were chatting away happily.

The Moonlight Elf could not help but feel a little jealous

‘I should be the one getting all the attention, right?!’

Anyway, after taking White Pigeon’s medicine, the two energies in Ziyue’s body slowly calmed down. After that, the shadow energy gradually returned to the moon pattern on its forehead.

“By the way, since you’ve already joined the organization, I’m going to assign you a task.”

“I will definitely carry out my duties.”
