<h4>Chapter 432: Chapter 431, Rubbing Salt into the Wound</h4>


    ck Panther’s speed was swift, and its strength formidable.


    Whether it was those sharp ws or razor-sharp fangs, they all exuded a savage aura.


    But.


    Grey Jiao’s agility was remarkable, akin to a loach, constantly shifting positions, evading ck Panther’s attacks while seizing the opportunity to strike.


    This scene stunned everyone.


    It felt as if Grey Jiao had awakened to intelligence, unlike ck Panther, which attacked mindlessly.


    "This dog is quite interesting!"


    In a refined private room on the second floor, Qin Zhan held a ss of red wine, crossed his legs, and a charming smile appeared on his handsome face.


    As if he were admiring an unparalleled beauty.


    "This dog is indeed peculiar!" said an elderly man in histe fifties next to Qin Zhan, "Young Master, if I’m not mistaken, this dog should be a mastiff!"


    Qin Zhan’s eyes lit up, "Are you talking about the legendary breed?"


    The old man nodded and said, "There is a saying among the people that out of nine pups, one will be a mastiff. This urrence is rare but not a blessing."


    "Because the mother dog’s milk cannot feed nine pups."


    "Therefore, there is only one way to ensure their survival."


    "That is to lock the nine pups in a cer without food or water, letting them fight and survive by consuming the flesh and blood of their siblings. After forty-nine days, the cer is opened."


    "In most cases, all nine dogs will die, but if one survives, its strength is guaranteed to be terrifying."


    "Not only can itsbat abilities rival those of a wild Tibetan mastiff, but there are rumors it gains intelligence, as if it had opened a ’heavenly eye,’ able to see things humans cannot."


    "It can even bring peace to an area."


    Qin Zhan grew more excited the more he listened. Even though that grey dog had killed his ck Panther, his eyes still burned brightly.


    "Uncle Ji, after thepetition, bring me the owner of this dog!"


    ------


    Grey Jiao won the victory without suspense.


    Even though its opponent was the seasonal champion from thest quarter.


    It couldn’t change the final result.


    For a while.


    The Dog Fighting Arena erupted with shouts and screams, as many who bet on Grey Jiao expressed their excitement with cheers.


    Those who lost money, although displeased, felt they witnessed a thrilling dog fight, making it worthwhile.


    The following matches were even more brutal; the arena brought out three hunting dogs, each with considerable fame.


    Although not as famous as ck Panther, three against one still had some appeal.


    However.


    The result was still Grey Jiao’s victory.


    But this time, it came at a significant cost, with several w marks sliced across its body, bleeding profusely, yet it fought more valiantly, as if a hellhound emerging from Hell.


    After winning three consecutive matches, Grey Jiao stepped down to rest, while other ferocious dogs were brought onto the stage.


    Xu Wendong sat there quietly.


    He calcted his earnings. With a one percentmission, he would get millions today.


    Zhao Jun, who sold him the dog, clearly knew this rule as well.


    With a face full of regret, his eyes showed a look of repentance.


    If only he had known the dog’s prowess was so fierce.


    How could he have sold it to Xu Wendong for eight hundred dors?


    He thought Xu Wendong was bringing him fortune.


    But it turned out.


    He was the one bringing fortune.


    At this moment, Xue Qing approached from afar, politely asking, "Mister Xu, are you avable now? My Young Master would like to meet you."


    Xu Wendong: "I’m avable."


    Xue Qing gestured invitingly, "Pleasee this way!"


    Watching Xu Wendong being escorted by the arena manager, Zhao Jun froze like a statue. He knew that the Qin Family had surely taken a liking to Xu Wendong’s dog and wanted to buy it at a high price.


    With what he knew of Qin Zhan, once Qin Zhan took a liking to a dog, he would often buy it at a high price, ranging from several million to tens of millions!


    ------


    "Young Master, Mister Xu has been brought over." Xue Qing led Xu Wendong to a luxurious private room on the second floor, from which the arena ring could be clearly seen.


    Qin Zhan appeared courteous, stood to wee him, and invited Xu Wendong to sit, offering him a ss of wine.


    "Mister Xu, where did you discover this beloved dog of yours? Has it been with you since it was young?" Qin Zhan curiously asked.


    "That’s not the case." Xu Wendong replied, "I only found this dog this afternoon and bought it for eight hundred dors."


    Qin Zhan was stunned, hardly expecting that this courageous and skilled dog was one he bought for just eight hundred dors.


    "Did you know the dog’s uniqueness?" Qin Zhan asked with a smile.


    Xu Wendong: "I liked interacting with dogs since childhood and could tell with a nce if they were fierce. That’s why I bought it."


    This reasoning was eptable to Qin Zhan, and he changed the subject directly, "I quite like your dog. Would Mister Xu be willing to part with it?"


    Xu Wendong beamed, "Of course, I would. The question is, how much is Young Master Qin willing to offer?"


    Qin Zhan held up three fingers, "Thirty million!"


    Xu Wendong eximed, good heavens.


    Even though he had heard from Ye Qingxin that Qin Zhan was fond of dogs, he did not expect him to spend thirty million on this dog. The price was truly shocking.


    "Since Young Master Qin likes it, I’ll sell it to you!" Xu Wendong readily agreed. Though he wasn’t short of money, thirty million was still a considerable sum for him.


    Qin Zhan gave a faint smile, the oue entirely within his expectations, as he didn’t believe anyone could resist the temptation of immense wealth.


    Besides his love for dog fighting, he also indulged in the thrill money brought.


    He then turned to Xue Qing, "Manager Xue, transfer thirty million to Brother Xu, and give him his share of this match too!"


    "Then I won’t disturb Young Master Qin." Xu Wendong said politely, then got up and left.


    After Xu Wendong left, Qin Zhan looked at the old man next to him, "Uncle Ji, find out the origin of this dog!"


    He was a very cautious man.


    The sudden appearance of a courageous and skilled dog felt full of questions, and only by knowing the dog’s origin would he be reassured.


    It was like a random beauty suddenly approaching; if you didn’t know the background, who could rest easy associating with her?


    Ten minutester.


    Zhao Jun, looking utterly dejected, was brought before Qin Zhan.


    "Did you sell that dog to Xu Wendong?" Qin Zhan asked.


    At this, Zhao Jun couldn’t hold back any longer. As miserable as he was, did he have to rub salt in his wounds?


    Thus, he tearfully recounted what happened, "I thought that dog was about to die of old age, so I sold it to that guy for eight hundred dors. I never imagined that dog’s strength was so great!"


    Qin Zhan instantly rxed his guard, smiling as he stood up, "Come on, let’s go check out that big treasure!"
