Chapter 272: Chapter 158 The Best Village in the World_1

The dawn was just breaking.

Lu Ran made his way to the home of the current village chief.

He knocked gently on the door, and immediately, the roar of a Tibetan mastiff came from inside.

Hearing this annoying sound, Lu Ran unleashed his ferocious beast’s aura, and even through a door, the noise inside abruptly stopped.

“Keep barking.”

Lu Ran’s expression was fierce.

“Who is it?”

Before long, the door was opened, and a muscular man pushed the door open. The man, standing at 1.9 meters tall with muscles all over his body, also exuded an aura like that of a ferocious beast.

“Chief Lu Yan?” Lu Ran asked upon seeing him.

The man was initially puzzled, but then saw Lu Ran remove his mask and look him in the eye.

Chief Lu Yan’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Are you Lu Ran?”

The elders and children of Lu Family Village might not recognize Lu Ran, but as the current village chief of Lu Family Village, how could he not know Lu Ran.

This was akin to a small village producing a True Dragon.

In the future, he was to be prominently recorded in the family history, worshipped by subsequent generations.

“It’s me,” Lu Ran said, “Chief Lu Yan, may I come in for a chat?”

“Quick, please come in.” Lu Yan was quite surprised; he had never anticipated Lu Ran would suddenly visit the Lu Family Village. He said, “Nephew Lu Ran, why didn’t you let us know in advance that you would be coming back to the village?”

“Look, the village isn’t prepared at all. I’ll organize now so everyone can set up a banquet to welcome you!”

“There’s no need for that, no need to be so polite,” Lu Ran hurriedly said.

“How can we not? If it wasn’t for your support of Lu Bing and the rest, and then their support for the other Beast Trainers in the village, the casualty rate among Lu Family Village’s fourth-generation Beast Trainers would undoubtedly be very high.”

“It’s what I should do. We’re family, after all,” Lu Ran replied with a smile. Then, led by Chief Lu Yan, he entered the house. Upon entering, the Tibetan mastiff was still cowering in a corner, watching Lu Ran with fear, as a puddle of water formed under it.

“Lu Yi and Lu Bing have all gone to the Breakthrough Secret Realm, and they didn’t even tell me you were coming… These kids.”

“I didn’t tell them either,” Lu Ran said, “I came to discuss something with you, Chief Lu Yan.”

“Hmm??” Chief Lu Yan was taken aback, “With me?”

“Yes, Chief Lu Yan, it seems you are not a Beast Trainer?” Lu Ran asked.

With a dim look in his eyes, Lu Yan laughed and said, “No, I actually received a Black Card too, but after some thought, I gave up the idea of becoming a Beast Trainer.”

“My son was one of the First Generation Beast Trainers, but… he died in the Secret Realm.”

“Now, I am the only breadwinner in the house. If I were to do something so dangerous, how would I take care of the elders and my wife at home.”

Lu Ran sighed, “Condolences.”

This Chief Lu Yan could also be considered a man of great responsibility.

He gave up the opportunity for extraordinary power so readily.

Lu Yan said, “Ah, it’s all fate, we’re all people with a hard lot in life.”

Lu Yan glanced at Lu Ran, who seemed not to recognize him at all, but in fact, he had seen Lu Ran before. Back when Lu Ran was a child, during his grandparents’ funeral, Lu Ran briefly returned to Lu Family Village.

As for Lu Ran’s parents… they left suddenly, and to this day, no funeral has been held. When it was found out that Lu Ran’s parents had met with an accident, Lu Family Village should have brought Lu Ran back to the village to take care of him, but amidst complete silence from their side, the Fang family rushed ahead.

After all, Lu Ran grew up in the city since he was little. Compared to the relatively unfamiliar Lu Family Village, it was likely that Lu Ran had more contact and was closer with the Fang family.

Subsequently, he also took the villagers of Lu Family Village to visit Lu Ran, but at that time, Lu Ran was always in low spirits, withdrawn, and isolated from the world.

Now… Lu Ran had obviously emerged from the shadows.

Who would have thought that the then Lu Ran, in the blink of an eye, would become arguably the strongest fourth-generation Beast Trainer on Blue Star, the focal point of global attention.

Fate is a miraculous thing, Lu Yan pondered.

“Nephew Lu Ran, are you interested in returning to Lu Family Village?” Lu Yan asked, “Actually, from the moment I gave up on becoming a Beast Trainer, I knew I wasn’t suitable to be the village chief of Lu Family Village.”

“I’ve also discussed this with everyone on the village committee. Afterwards, we’ll choose someone among the fourth-generation Beast Trainers in the village who both has the strength and the responsibility to lead everyone forward, integrating into the new era.”

“However, the village’s opinion, including that of most of the fourth-generation Beast Trainers, is still to invite you back and have you take on the role of village chief of Lu Family Village.”

“After all, you are Uncle Lu Hai’s grandson, and you have helped Lu Family Village so much during this period. No one is more suitable than you.

I know you might not be interested in a small village like Lu Family Village and that the village might even become a drag on you, but you can’t be alone outside and personally handle everything. Some minor tasks, dirty and tiring work, can be completely handed over to the Beast Trainers of Lu Family Village to deal with.”

“Uncle, we are all one family, there’s no need to be so distant,” Lu Ran said, “Actually, the reason I came to see you was also about this matter.”

“I indeed intend to run for the position of village chief of Lu Family Village and lead the village’s development.”

“Really??” Lu Yan was overjoyed. If this was ten years ago, he might have cared about the position of village chief, but ever since his son died and he gave up his Black Card, the current Lu Yan had only one belief left.

That is to see all the young people in the village as his own children, hoping that they can do better and not also fall on the path of Beast Training.

Now that Lu Ran was willing to return and develop Lu Family Village, it was an extremely fortuitous event for the village. After all, Lu Ran was now at the forefront of the Beast Training Era, and with him leading, it would be hard for Lu Family Village to fall behind.
