Chapter 572 Expansion Of Beast Barn

"Vivian, what would you like to ask me?" Zachary questioned, his eyebrows raised in curiosity.

"When did you discover my identity, exactly? I suppose it wasn't yesterday..." Vivian asked curiously, her voice trailing off.

"Why do you ask such a question?" Zachary was amused by her words. Apparently, she actually noticed that he'd discovered her identity a long time ago.

"Well, you weren't surprised upon seeing me yesterday, which led me to think you'd probably known who I am for quite some time now," Vivian replied honestly.

"If that's the case, when do you think I found out?" Zachary asked.

"How would I know? That's why I'm asking, of course." She cast Zachary a reproachful look, her demeanor shifting somewhat.

"Ha-ha! Well, let me tell you the truth. I did doubt your identity long before yesterday, but I wasn't completely sure. It actually wasn't confirmed until yesterday when you showed up," Zachary answered as seriously as he could. Albeit believable, he was lying through his teeth. Vivian's identity had officially been confirmed when he eavesdropped on the conversation between her and Frank back in the Primitive Cave.

"Is that so? You are more thoughtful than I'd imagined," Vivian said vigilantly, after pausing a short moment. She wanted to figure out how suspicious Zachary was, because she needed to use him in order to get what she wanted. That said, she was afraid that he would find out what she was doing, so she needed to prepare in advance.

"I'm not a thoughtful person. You're overthinking it, Vivian," Zachary responded, waving his hand in front of his face.

"Hard for you to say. I just don't believe you! Anyway, I've got to go." She then glared one last time at Zachary before leaving, without looking back.

"This woman really isn't as easy to fool as I'd hoped. She's terribly suspicious of me. I'm going to have to increase my arrogance around her," Zachary muttered to himself. His eyes were as cold as ice.

Only a day later, the news that Zachary's recruitment meeting had been a huge success had been spread throughout the entire Xiao Clan. Thanks to such fast-spreading information, he had become a well-known figure in the clan. Many Xiao Clan disciples even looked up at him like their idol. Never had they seen someo

." Jaxon silenced the warriors with his finger.

"The reason for my request is very simple. In my opinion, the beast barn's scale is much too small. It doesn't match the Xiao Clan's status in the Devil Kingdom, at least for the moment," Zachary explained bluntly, his voice a little flat.

"I don't share your opinion. To the contrary, in fact, our beast barn is a big one. Besides, it already satisfies our needs, so I don't think we need to expand it." Jaxon was a little dissatisfied with Zachary's sudden use of tone.

"Excuse me, but I have to say something inappropriate. Master Jaxon, your idea is totally wrong," Zachary claimed with great certainty, his voice a little more shrill this time around.

"And why exactly would you say that, Harley?" Jaxon asked, a little taken aback.

"Master Jaxon, let me ask you one question. What is the most attractive part of a treasure beast?" Zachary questioned curiously. He furrowed his brow as he spoke.

"Well, first of all, treasure beasts can produce treasures, of course. Secondly, they can fight together with their masters," Jaxon answered quickly without thinking too much. For most warriors in the Supernal Continent, those two factors were definitely the most attractive things about a treasure beast.

"Apparently, Master Jaxon, you are just like any other warrior. All you see is the superficial value of treasure beasts, but not their potential value. You must broaden your horizons, if you want my advice." Zachary shook his head at Jaxon's response.
