This explosion was extremely fast and sudden. Even Wang Xiao was not prepared at all. When he returned to his senses, he had already been sent flying dozens of meters into the air!

Whoosh—

A black shadow quickly rushed over. Wang Xiao flipped over and landed on the back of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. He could not be bothered to look at the situation on the sand dune and hurriedly pointed at the other figures who were still tumbling in the air. “Quickly save them!”

The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] agreed. Its figure instantly transformed into a black lightning and steadily caught the others in a breath.

The five of them pulled each other to stabilize themselves. Fortunately, the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon was big enough and could barely accommodate the five of them.

“How is it? Is everyone alright?”

Wang Xiao pulled Zhou Xiruo and Zhao Yunyan and asked. Seeing everyone nod, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he turned around and looked at the sand dune, but he was stunned on the spot!

The sand dune more than ten meters tall had already been completely lifted. A long red bird head was struggling and crying in the sand that filled the sky!

[Blazing Golden Crow]!

Wang Xiao instantly recognized the mutated beast, but he did not expect it to be so huge!

Just its slender beak was seven to eight meters long. If its entire body came out from under the sand, it would probably be similar to an adult [Volcanic Melting Lizard]. However, it was only a level three gold beast!

Not only Wang Xiao, but the others were also stunned by the size of the Blazing Golden Crow.

After the shock, they were puzzled. They had attacked wantonly for a long time just now, and the [Blazing Golden Crow] had only cried out a few times. They were only mining now. Why had the [Blazing Golden Crow] gone crazy?

“Something’s not right!”

Xu Junrou pointed at the exploded sand dune below and shouted, “The [Blazing

Golden Crow] did not attack us. It seems to be protecting that mineral vein!”

“Protecting the mineral vein?”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He looked down in the direction Xu Junrou was pointing and realized that it was true.

As the sand dune was lifted by the [Blazing Golden Crow], the mineral vein that was flashing with golden light was also exposed to the air.

As for the [Blazing Golden Crow], it seemed to want to come out of the sand, but in fact, it kept using its head to fiddle with the sand beside it, as if… it wanted to bury the mineral vein again?

As soon as this thought appeared, even Wang Xiao felt that it was ridiculous.

Although the high-level mutated beasts in the secret realm had a certain level of intelligence, beasts were beasts after all. They relied on their instincts to move most of the time.

Therefore. many mutated beasts would protect their territory. hilt they did not care about the minerals in their territory. In their opinion, they were just “hard rocks” and were useless.

However, the [Blazing Golden Crow] in front of him clearly showed interest in the copper mine. It could even be said to be greedy. How could Wang Xiao not be puzzled?

The others clearly discovered this abnormality.

Yi Han nudged Wang Xiao and asked curiously, “Idol, you’re a beast tamer lord and know more about mutated beasts. Have you seen such a situation before?”

Wang Xiao shook his head with a strange expression and suddenly had a bold thought. If the [Blazing Golden Crow] was really interested in minerals, he might be able to subdue it without fighting…

Yuheng Academy, in the academy head’s office.

Chen Jinrong sat in the academy head’s seat and was holding an exquisite small ornament to examine carefully. Qi Lianjun stood behind him with his hands behind his back. His tall figure was like a sharp sword.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open and the academy head walked in with a sinister expression.

“Commander Chen, you sure know how to make yourself at home!”

The academy head pursed his lips and muttered faintly. He did not hide the displeasure on his face, as if he did not know the identity of the person in front of him at all.

Qi Lianjun frowned slightly. He took half a step forward and was about to speak when he saw Chen Jinrong raise his hand and retreat expressionlessly.

When the academy head saw their actions, a smile appeared on his malicious face. He asked in a teasing tone, “Commander Chen, is this the successor you chose? His bearing seems to be ordinary?”

“What did you say?

Qi Lianjun’s expression darkened as he stared at the academy head with a gaze as sharp as a knife. “I just want you to be more respectful to the commander. Don’t forget that you were once a member of the Kaiyang Military District!”

Upon hearing this, the smile on the academy head’s face instantly turned into a cold smile. However, he ignored Qi Lianjun and looked at Chen Jinrong with a cold smile. “Commander Chen, I didn’t expect that after so many years, there would still be people who still remember me?”

“Little Huang, isn’t this a little sarcastic?”

Chen Jinrong smiled bitterly and put down the ornament. He looked at the academy head and smiled helplessly. “The seventh level lord, Huang Tingwei, was once the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the 6th Military Region. Even if it’s decades later, people will still remember, right?”

“Sigh…”

Huang Tingwei let out a long sigh and looked at Chen Jinrong helplessly. “You still know that I’m the candidate for the commander-in -chief of the 6th Military Region? Then why did you insist on transferring me here?”

“It’s fine if you gave me an order directly, but you even framed me and expelled me from the military. Now, not only am I unable to return to the military district, but even my children and even my children’s children are not allowed to enlist! What did I do to offend you?”

At the mention of the past, Huang Tingwei immediately became excited and started to complain non-stop. The gloominess of the past disappeared, and he looked like a child who had been wronged.

Chen Jinrong listened quietly and did not interrupt. Only when Huang Tingwei stopped when he was tired did he ask with a smile, “It’s been a few years since we last met. How have you been recently?”

Huang Tingwei’s eyes suddenly turned red. After a few seconds, he nodded. “Thanks to you, it’s not bad.” Chen Jinrong nodded. “How so?”

Huang Tingwei was speechless. “If you don’t know how to chat, can you stop chatting forcefully?”

Chen Jinrong touched his nose awkwardly. Qi Lianjun looked for a replacement expressionlessly and said, “I guess the commander wants to ask if you’ve found a new target in the past few years.”

“Yes, yes, yes! That’s what I mean!”

Chen Jinrong nodded repeatedly and continued to look at Huang Tingvvei. “You’ve established the Yuheng Academy for so many years. You must have found many good seedlings, right?”

Huang Tingwei looked at Chen Jinrong suspiciously. “Do you think this matter has anything to do with the ‘new goal’? Moreover, I’m not the one who wants to organize this Yuheng Academy. Isn’t this your arrangement?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jinrong revealed a rare surprised expression. “You know everything?”

The corners of Huang Tingwei’s lips twitched. “Opening an academy requires the approval of the military. It usually takes more than a week to complete, but my procedures are done in three days. How can I not know what’s going on?”

Chen Jinrong clicked his tongue regretfully. Then, he changed the topic and said seriously, “I came today because I have a mission for you.”

Although he had left the military for several years, when he heard that there was a mission, Huang Tingwei still subconsciously put on a serious expression. “What mission?”

“Wang Xiao.. “
