Astral Pet Store – Chapter 526
With nothing in the way, Su Ping, Xie Jinshui, and Qin Duhuang walked out of the Mysterious Realm that housed the Tower.
As he stood on the cold snow-covered mountain, Su Ping turned around and stared at the Tower one last time. He gradually put away the disappointment in his heart; one had to rely on oneself while living in that world. It is not good to always wait for others to help them.
Su Ping summoned the Dark Dragon Hound which then took the form of his dragon.
Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang jumped. The team flew away from the snow-covered mountain.
Su Ping took out the Soul Nurturer from the black box once they were outside the sphere of influence of the Tower and summoned the Inferno Dragon's soul.
The soul was as thin as fog and would likely disperse at any moment. There was a golden hue around the soul; it was the Divine Energy that protected the soul.
Su Ping had been thinking about what he should do if he was unable to find a Soul Preserver. He would take the soul of the Hell Dragon to the Demigod Cemetery to rest in the spring found in Joanna's castle. Divine energy will sustain the soul as well, but it is not the best solution.
Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang were still filled with complicated emotions as they stared at the half-transparent dragon soul. They are out of their words. They were reading reports when Su Ping was in a coma; they had discovered that the famous Hell Dragon had met misfortune in battle, dying at the hands of an Otherworldly Heavenly King. Fortunately, the dragon soul was quite formidable and did not disappear back then, which created hopes of reviving the Hell Dragon.
That was why Xie Jinshui was willing to put aside all his work and go to the Tower with Su Ping; he wanted to make up for it.
For the most part, Su Ping had the main credit for the survival of Longjiang Base City. Thank you very much according to order.
The Soul Preserver reacted when the soul of the Hell Dragon came out. The plant began to produce a dark mist that surrounded the soul of the dragon.
According to what he felt from their bond, Su Ping was able to tell that the Hell Dragon felt quite comfortable. The soul shrank and slipped into the Soul Preserving root to float inside, absorbing the energy to repair itself.
Su Ping was happy to see that Soul Nurturer working.
But, making the dragon soul last longer with the Soul Nurturer was only a temporary improvement. He had to find the origin of the dragon that the system mentioned to revive the Hell Dragon. Only then will he calm down.
Xie Jinshui was also happy that the spirit of the Hell Dragon became stable. Seeing the splendor of the snow-covered mountain that flashed past his gaze, Xie Jinshui could not help but exclaim, “From today, the tax that will be sent to the Tower will be given to you, you will be given, Mr. Su. You will be the guard of Longjiang Base City.”
Su Ping shook his head. “Save that money for the base city infrastructure. If you finally find a problem because it has more than enough money to use well, try to reduce taxes so that people can have an easier life.”
Government tax revenues are high enough each year, reaching several billion, to say the general figure. Su Ping did not need money that he could not convert into energy points. He would find nothing to spend his money on. He is a person who is not interested in money, or spending money for that matter, because it becomes a tedious activity.
Xie Jinshui looked at Su Ping to make sure that he was not joking. He couldn't help but get emotional.
He was aware that Su Ping was treating his pet shop business quite seriously. He was always careful and meticulous in all his affairs. He had even made enemies of the Liu Family at first, and they were competing fiercely. However, when he decided to offer Su Ping a large sum of money, Su Ping refused.
Xie Jinshui was convinced that Su Ping was a person who loved money.
She wouldn't do much crazy for her pet store if it were the other way around.
So why the rejection? Xie Jinshui couldn't figure it out.
Su Ping's refusal not only shocked Xie Jinshui, but also Qin Duhuang. He looked at Su Ping, finding no words to say. Su Ping was looking at the dragon soul within the Soul Nurturer with a gentle gaze. He patted the potion, pretending to be patting the Hell Dragon. There was a time when he could lay his hands on the Hell Dragon, but the soul was the only piece left. The once-easy display of affection has turned into an impossible task.
People don't know what they have until they lose it. That's what always happens.
Su Ping kept the Soul Preserver in his storage room, so that the Hell Dragon could rest quietly inside.
They traveled in haste, reaching Longjiang Base City within half a day.
Su Ping flew back to his shop.
Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang said goodbye as they both had their own jobs to take care of.
Su Ping did not invite them to his shop before they left. He returned inside after he summoned back the Dark Dragon Hound to his contact room.
Zhong Lingtong and Tang Ruyan were sitting in the shop, agitated as they waited. They did not think that Su Ping trip to the Tower would be promising. Sometimes, girls have good instincts.
The two girls were told when someone entered the store; they happily saw that it was Su Ping
“Pak!”
Zhong Lingtong ran towards him cheerfully.
Tang Ruyan's welcome arrived within seconds. He also rushed to meet Su Ping.
He measured it from top to bottom and turned pale from seeing so much blood on his body. “What did the legendary warrior of the Tower do to you?” Tang Ruyan asked. He is rarely angry. Zhong Lingtong finally realized what was wrong with Su Ping. “Master, you are seriously injured. I'll go and find you a healer.” He did not even reach the end of his exclamation as he turned around and started running.
“What?” Zhong Lingtong was confused. He glanced at Tang Ruyan with a questioning look.
Tang Ruyan soon realized that Su Ping was not talking about them, but Joanna was rarely with them taking care of the storefront. Joanna was a full-time employee; the legendary-ranked girl was quite mysterious. He even knows healing skills. She is indeed ... older than me, Tang Ruyan thought.
After all, one would need time to master too many things.
“I'm fine. There are several arguments but all problems solved.” Su Ping gave a summary of the events because he did not want the girls to worry about his well-being. Their worries, as far as he knew, were quite sincere. As his disciple, Zhong Lingtong should have worried about him. But why Tang Ruyan? He was his prisoner. Has she lived with him for too long that he developed Stockholm syndrome in the end?
Well, on the other hand, Su Ping did not treat Tang Ruyan as his prisoner, but her friend.
“What arguments? With Tower?” Tang Ruyan couldn't help but pressure her for more information. If his time in the Tower is not pleasant, then it is not a simple argument. There must be some serious problems.
The tower is the most powerful force on the Blue Planet. When the Tower sneezed, even an ancient family like Tang would tremble in fear. The tower represented a power that could overthrow and obliterate other factions. Therefore, many families would send some of their members to serve under the legendary battle pet warriors, and to gather first-hand information.
Tang Ruyan couldn't help but feel inferior.
Unfortunately, his relationship with the Tang Family no longer existed. He could have used his identity as the fake family head and found out what happened in the Tower through his family channels.
Su Ping shook his head. He doesn't want to share more. “I have other things I need to do now. Go and tell my mom that I'm back. Tell him not to worry.”
Zhong Lingtong nodded. He remembered something. “Ah, sir, your father is finally home. I heard that he had just returned from the sea. ”
Su Ping was surprised. The father he had not met had returned.
What a strange feeling, seeing his father. But Su Ping shook his head. “I'll visit them later. Please let them know that I am back on my behalf. ”
He wanted to revive the Hell Dragon as soon as possible to lift the burden on his mind.
Zhong Lingtong nodded in agreement. “No problem.”
Su Ping patted his head, then he went to the pet room, and closed the door.
In the pet room.
Joanna was sitting inside one of the treatment cages, cultivating. He opened his eyes when Su Ping entered. “The tower you visited doesn't want to give you a Soul Preserver?” he asked because he saw the blood that was bothering the eyes.
Su Ping shook his head. “They did give it to me but there were some complications in the process. But it's all in the past now. ”
Joanna did not comment.
“I visited the dragon realm to find the origin of the dragon so that I can revive the Hell Dragon,” Su Ping said to Joanna, “I will still leave the store in your hands.”
“Should I go with you?” ask Joanna.
Su Ping shook his head. “My death can be reversed, but your death is not.”
Joanna would actually die at a cultivation location other than the Demigod Cemetery, unless she visited the cultivation site as part of the employee benefits the system could provide her.
If he was rated as an outstanding employee, the system would provide him with such benefits, where Su Ping could use energy points and buy resurrection opportunities for him.
However, Joanna had not long been an employee to earn enough points.
“Cautious.” Joanna thought of the strange awakening ability that Su Ping possessed. Suddenly, he laughed at himself for not worrying about anything. Reviving a dragon would be the children's attempt for the mysterious and terrifying existence hiding behind Su Ping. After all, the pet had been revived many times in the Demigod Cemetery.
That existence should try to test Su Ping by not immediately reviving the dragon. Joanna shook her head. He didn't want to dig any deeper because he barely knew anything about the existence of it.
Su Ping pulled a list of cultivation sites and searched for the dragon realm.
He realized that the number of dragon realms was beyond calculation.
The Elder Realm of Dragon (advanced cultivation site)
The Mighty Realm of Dragons (advanced cultivation site)
Dragon Expansion Heaven Realm (advanced cultivation site)
Archean Realm of Dragons (top level cultivation site)
