Chapter 252 The Elite Hunters
After a few rounds of drinks, Hua Yu started talking about serious matters.
While having a background can make things easier, Hua Yu still needs to ensure the security of his territory.
"Have you three confirmed that there are absolutely no safety issues?"
Upon hearing Hua Yu's question, Pan Di replied without hesitation, "Young Master Hua, don't worry. I personally inspected the land next to Feiyue Mountain, and there are absolutely no problems with it."
That's what they say, but in reality, Pan Di never even went to see Hua Yu's land. Instead, he simply signed his name on the safety assessment form.
Hua Yu's territory is located a dozen kilometers north of Asuka City, in an area outside the border not far from Ankai, making its position quite awkward.
During the assessment meeting, Huayu's plot of land was classified as somewhere between usable and unusable; whether it could be used or not depended entirely on a single sentence from above.
If Pandit wants it to be usable, then it can be inhabited; if Pandit doesn't want it to be usable, then it is a demonic land unsuitable for human habitation.
Although Hua Yu disliked Pan Di, he had to admit that such sycophants were the easiest people for someone of Hua Yu's status to deal with.
For someone like Mo Fan, who lacks a background and connections, encountering Pan Di would definitely be a troublesome and difficult situation.
But for someone like Hua Yu with connections, all he needed to do was say a word, and Pan Di would happily handle everything without him having to worry about a thing, making things extremely convenient.
The Magic Association has a lot of things to manage, such as Awakening Stones, the compilation of magicians, resources, magic taxes, and a whole host of other things. Hua Yu will need to send people to deal with them in the future. Therefore, keeping an obedient dog there is definitely a very necessary thing.
Hua Yu nodded slightly to Pan Di and said, "Thank you for your trouble."
Then, he looked at Ji Liang and Geng Hong, especially waiting for Geng Hong to speak.
After all, it's most reliable to ask the people your father sent for this kind of thing.
To Hua Yu's surprise, before Geng Hong could speak, Ji Liang, the hunter master who was clearly unaware of his own identity and background, spoke first.
"Young Master Hua, there's something I still need to remind you of. Although our Liangcai Hunter Team has already thoroughly cleaned that area inside and out, it is, after all, outside the safe zone, and there will definitely be some hidden dangers that we can't eliminate completely in one go. So I suggest that you conduct such a sweep at least once a month."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yu subconsciously looked at Geng Hong, seeking his opinion with her eyes.
Geng Hong nodded quickly and replied, "That's true. There are some demon clans that we humans can't completely eradicate. We can only temporarily drive them back, but they will come back before long. And to completely wipe them out in one go, we would need to use the Essence of the Earth."
The heart of the earth!
That's a valuable item for human mages to break through forbidden spells; even Hua Yu wouldn't casually use such a thing.
Well, let it be troublesome. After all, one's own power will always need an armed force behind it.
Thinking of this, his gaze involuntarily fell on Ji Liang.
The Elite Hunters?
Isn't there a ready-made armed force right in front of me?
However, Hua Yu still needs to investigate Ji Liang. If there are no problems, he would be willing to try to win him over.
Once all the necessary contacts had been dealt with, the banquet was effectively over.
-
The next morning, at the entrance of the Flying Bird Hotel, a woman dressed in light blue ancient costume was waiting for someone under the scorching sun.
This woman was beautiful with delicate features, red lips and white teeth. Her every move exuded a gentle and graceful temperament, which made people feel sorry for her.
At this moment, she stood at the hotel entrance, enduring the scorching sun, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, yet she still maintained her elegant posture.
Many men who passed by felt a strong urge to protect this gentle woman.
They all looked at them with concern, and some even stepped forward to ask if they needed help.
One of them, a self-proclaimed elegant young man, gently waved his bamboo fan and walked briskly to the side of the gentle woman.
He smiled and said, "Such a beautiful girl, why would she be sunbathing here alone?"
As he spoke, he gracefully raised the bamboo fan in his hand, holding it high above his head to shield the woman from the scorching sun.
However, the woman remained silent, only quietly shifting her feet slightly to the side.
The young master was not discouraged; instead, he gave a look to his entourage behind him.
Before long, the attendants quickly sprang into action, finding a huge parasol from somewhere and placing it firmly on the ground.
Seemingly sensing that the woman was wary of him, the young man did not approach her. Instead, he left her alone under the parasol while he himself was exposed to the scorching sun.
The woman frowned slightly, but this time she did not move her feet again.
Only when the hotel doors slowly opened and a young man wearing sunglasses walked out did a smile appear on the woman's face.
But before she could rush out, the young man beside her charged forward first, angrily accusing the sunglasses-wearing youth, "It's you who has no manners, making a girl wait for you, isn't it?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Hua Yu's eyes behind his sunglasses. He turned his head to look at the woman and the parasol above her head, then looked at the sun in the sky, as if he suddenly understood something.
Are simps really that common these days?
But you can't just fawn over anyone, do you even know any other girls?
Hua Yu ignored the young master in front of her and walked right past him.
Feeling ignored, the young master Li Yun angrily reached out and grabbed Hua Yu's left shoulder.
Humans are strange like that; they can endure all sorts of cold treatment from goddesses, yet they can't stand being ignored by others.
"Buzz~~~"
Just as Li Yun's hand was about to touch Hua Yu's shoulder, a slight spatial tremor repelled his hand.
It didn't hurt, but it was embarrassing. How could Li Yun, who was always arrogant, tolerate that?
"Stop him!" Li Yun roared angrily.
At his command, the two attendants immediately rushed towards Hua Yu.
"What a crazy thing to do so early in the morning!" Hua Yu muttered under his breath, then his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Buzz~~~"
A powerful spatial force suddenly appeared, and the two high-level mages were sent flying before they could even dodge.
Hua Yu stopped and turned to look at Li Feng behind him, saying calmly, "Get lost!"
Seeing that the two high-level mages protecting him had been taken down in one blow, Li Feng knew he had encountered a formidable opponent. He quickly abandoned his two followers and hurriedly left.
After the person in the way left, Hua Yu looked at the gentle woman and smiled, "Little Moth Girl, I didn't realize you were so charming."
