434: Bounty name - Dragon!

Whale Country, Royal Family.

Ji San, whose temples were streaked with white, wore an imperial robe and sat in a pavilion within the Imperial Palace.

In this pavilion, there was nothing else, only rankings that occupied the entire walls.

Martial Arts prodigy ranking.

Spiritual Array Master prodigy ranking.

Talisman prodigy ranking.

Whale Country Belle Ranking.

...

Over the years, the people on these rankings have changed batch after batch.

The first place position was even rarely held by anyone for more than two years.

Since the Child from the Dragon Family was born, triggering a celestial phenomenon, the geniuses in the entire Whale Country have been replaced more and more frequently.

It seemed to subtly indicate some great trend.

However.

On this complex list, there was one name that was so clear and eye-catching.

Because this name had been at the top of the Spiritual Array Master prodigy ranking for over sixty years!

"Su Brother... it's been over sixty years, have you forgotten me?"

Ji San looked at the three words 'Su Yongchun' at the top of the Spiritual Array Master prodigy ranking. After a long while, he sighed and slowly rose with the help of the Eunuch beside him, feeling tired.

However, in the next moment, Ji San discovered that the Eunuch assisting him was not wearing his original attire.

He looked up with a slight surprise.

"Su Brother?"

Seeing the person before him, who looked exactly as he did back then, Ji San's voice did not rise.

After the surprised tone, his tiger-like eyes filled with tears: "You've come."

Saying this, Ji San grinned and laughed silently: "I knew you would come, I've already prepared the wine for you!"

Pulled by Ji San, Su Yongchun smiled with emotion and followed.

And when the two left.

Old Huang's figure appeared in the room.

Looking at the backs of the two, he, with his white hair, couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.

"Even though this old man has entered the Sealed Position Realm, I still can't see through him."

"And compared to back then, the gap seems even wider."

Imperial Palace Hall.

Ji San did not make a big fuss, nor did he mobilize everyone in the Imperial Palace to prepare a feast.

Before a small table, there were a few jars of wine on the ground and a few dishes on the table.

Of course.

Although the number of these dishes was small, they were all delicacies.

Moreover, the palace maids waiting beside were all waiting for the dishes to be almost finished before adding new ones.

"Su Brother, come, taste this batch of fine wine that I've buried for over sixty years!"

Ji San laughed heartily and poured a cup for Su Yongchun.

The Eunuchs beside him, seeing His Majesty personally pouring wine for the other party, exchanged glances and dared not say much.

"Buried for over sixty years, I must taste it properly then."

Su Yongchun raised his wine cup and drank it in one gulp.

"How is it?" Ji San waited for the evaluation.

Su Yongchun didn't say anything, and poured wine for the other party: "You taste it too."

He drank it in one gulp.

Ji San's expression was strange: "It's bitter, hahaha, this wine was wasted being buried for over sixty years."

"But it might also be because, Su Brother, you came too late and missed the most delicious time for this jar of wine, the loss is huge, hahaha."

"That is indeed a loss."

Su Yongchun smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"You came to find me today, it seems there's something you need to trouble me with?"

Having been in his position for so many years, Ji San had seen countless people and already understood that Su Yongchun's visit this time was just incidental for reminiscing.

"Let's drink first."

Su Yongchun filled the wine cup and raised his hand.

"It's bitter, don't drink it, it's so bad."

Ji San advised.

However, seeing the other party drink the wine to the last drop, a smile appeared on his face, and he poured himself a cup.

After three rounds of wine and five courses of dishes.

Su Yongchun and Ji San leaned back in their chairs, lost in thought as they looked at the dark sky.

"Ji Brother, I came to see you today because there's something I need to trouble you with."

Su Yongchun looked at Ji San.

"Tell me."

Ji San took another bite of food.

Recalling the original work, Su Yongchun said slowly: "Golden Scale Sect will be recruiting new Disciples in seven years. I remember that Whale Country has five spots, and the candidates for these five spots are ultimately decided by the Royal Family?"

"What? You want me to help you send a few people to Golden Scale Sect?"

Ji San didn't care at all: "How many spots do you need?"

Golden Scale Sect.

This is a Sect located on a giant island in the Southern Border Sea Area, separate from the Great Yong Continent.

Even Sealed Position Realm experts can only become Elders there!

This Sect never interferes with matters of the secular World, nor does it care at all.

And the Sect recruits Disciples once every hundred years.

The Great Yong Continent is just one of the places within its recruitment range.

On some more distant continents, those great clans and great powers with teleportation Array Formations also aspire to send their Prodigies to Golden Scale Sect!

From this, one can see how precious the spots in Golden Scale Sect are.

But Ji San didn't care at all, and even asked Su Yongchun how many he needed.

However, Su Yongchun shook his head at Ji San's words.

"I want your Royal Family to reject a young fellow named Su Xuan."

"Reject?"

Ji San was puzzled: "Our Royal Family selects people from the various prodigy rankings, how talented must this young fellow you mentioned be? He's definitely going to be selected by our Royal Family?"

"He is my Child."

"Your Child?"

Ji San sat up in surprise: "You have a Child already?"

Saying this, he said with relief: "That's right, I already have grandchildren, it's not strange for you to have a Child."

"Time passes so quickly... for Mortals like me."

"However, for the Golden Scale Sect, if you don't go through our Royal Family's channel, there is only another extremely difficult method to join by other means, which is impossible for a Child of his age."

"Are you planning to train such an excellent Child yourself?"

Su Yongchun smiled but did not speak.

"Alright, I remember."

Ji San wiped the wine from his hands: "But since he's your Child, maybe your Spiritual Array Master ranking position isn't safe anymore, hahaha..."

Su Yongchun didn't care: "The possibility is not high."

Saying this, he added in his heart: "After all, although my Child is the protagonist, he doesn't have the System's Aptitude."

The night was thick.

Ji San looked at the empty seat opposite him, sighed, and poured himself another glass of wine.

"Your Majesty, you can't drink anymore, this wine is spoiled!"

The Eunuch beside him reminded.

"The wine is spoiled?"

Ji San slowly shook his head: "But I think it's excellent wine, and tonight is its most delicious time."

"Worth savoring for the rest of my life."

...

Whale Country, a certain city.

"You want to be a bounty hunter?"

Inside the house, the Fatty holding a pen looked at the innocent-faced Child in front of him, who wasn't even as tall as his waist, and his eyelids twitched.

"Go, go, go, get out of here, don't bother me!"

He was chased out.

Su Xuan was full of frustration: "Master, didn't you say to register as a bounty hunter first, and improve my strength while doing missions?"

"He won't even let me register."

"You're stupid!"

Dan Qu stomped his foot and said: "You should at least wear a mask!"

"When the time comes, he'll ask you to use some strength to prove yourself, and then, I, your Master, will lend you some strength, you'll punch his wall down, and he'll immediately hand you the bounty token!"

"Is that so?"

Su Xuan's eyes lit up with understanding.

He quickly found a vendor and bought a mask.

When he arrived at the Bounty Office again, he was met with the dark face of the pen-holding Fatty.

Did this Child think he was a fool or something?

He just came to ask, and now he thinks he won't recognize him just by wearing a mask?

A Child of five or six years old, coming to cause trouble.

"No, we don't register bounty hunters for children here, little brat, get out of here!"

The Fatty pointed outside the door.

However, at this moment.

A Child's figure walked out from the crowd outside again.

"Manager, I want to register as a bounty hunter."

The boy's voice had an added firmness.

Su Xuan turned his head to look.

This was a guy about the same age as him.

"What's going on today? Did I poke a children's nest?"

The Fatty at the Bounty Office's face wrinkled together.

"Boom!"

But at this moment, the later Child, as if understanding that he needed to show his strength, directly punched the wall beside him!

"Crack, crack, crack~"

A patch of cracks suddenly appeared on the wall.

Seeing this scene, the Fatty's heart trembled.

He then put on a smiling face: "Little brother, registering as a bounty hunter? Okay, no problem!"

"Excuse me, what is your bounty name?"

The boy slightly raised his head and said seriously: "Dragon!"
