Astral Pet Store – Chapter 654
“What's going on?” Su Ping shouted as he left.
The battle titled pet warrior turned around and greeted Su Ping respectfully. Someone murmured, “Master. Su is here. Thank God.” “Let's see what Mr. Su thinks.”
“Sure.”
The titled battle pet warrior secretly made way for Su Ping as he approached them. “Bapak. Su.”
Several elders of the Qin family and the heads of the Liu and Zhou families went to greet Su Ping. Liu Tianzong looked at Su Ping with complicated emotions.
Back in the day, their pet store was competing with Su Ping while using underhanded means to tarnish the reputation of his shop. As he thought about what he had done, Liu Tianzong had to admit.
It must have been one of the bravest moments of his life.
The good thing was that Su Ping only asked for half of the Liu family fortune. Otherwise, young Su Ping—a man with legendary rank battle power— could only utter that word and the Liu family would disappear without leaving a trace; even if some of their members managed to escape, the Liu family would simply disappear, they will soon realize how they will never be able to see the light of day again.
Legendary fighting pet warriors set the rules on the Blue Planet!
“What are you talking about? Why do you all seem so worried?” su Ping said after taking a quick look.
Liu Tianzong regained his senses and produced a forced smile. “Bapak. Su, we're talking about relocation. The tower pulled out the list this morning, but Longjiang Base City was not part of Xing-Jing Defense Line. Tower hopes Longjiang can be combined with Shuanglong Base City.”.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. “Are you sure of that? We have Qin Duhuang here. Why would they relocate the base town when there were legendary battle pet warriors stationed here? ”
That relocation doesn't just mean that people will stay elsewhere until the strike ends and then come back.
After everyone left the base town, the ferocious beasts would then arrive and occupy the base town. No one will be able to come back.
Each base city has its own customs and culture; all of that will be lost with relocation.
Su Ping also knew that relocation was impossible for him.
The shop is there.
He did not want to leave Longjiang. It was a Class B base town and she lived in a poor community where the streets were old and the buildings were old. However, those mottled walls and the moisture in the air were part of him.
That's his house. It's shabby but beautiful.
Liu Tianzong forced a smile. “Qin is a legendary warrior fighter but he did not join the Tower. We heard that the legendary fighters in the Tower have formed different groups and things have become very complicated. The tower claims that the geographical location of Longjiang is not suitable for use as a defensive line; we can be a weak link for everyone. I must say, this is not entirely unreasonable; however, we can make up for that deficiency with Qin Duhuang. The tower only made excuses ..” Su Ping frowned. “What Qin Duhuang did
say?”
“He went to the headquarters of Xing-Jing Defense Line and has not returned.” An elder of the Qin family sighed.
“Xie Jinshui also called. He tried to get things done using his connections, for Longjiang to be added to the defensive line. If Xing-Jing's Defense Line excludes us, no other line of defense will accept us, as we will become an obligation to them.”
The family head of the Zhou family sighed and added, “I think we will definitely be part of the defensive line, considering there are Qin Duhuang and Mr. Su. I can't believe they told us to move. This is..”<TAG1>.
How humiliating!
Zhou Tainlin wanted to spew verbal abuse, but he had already done so before, when he first heard the news.
He no longer had the desire to spit out curses. He just wanted to find a way to add their base city on the defensive line.
Otherwise, all residents of the base city would have to move or they would face a strike alone.
Relocation can be detrimental, especially for large families. All of their territories are in Longjiang. All fixed assets will become worthless once they leave. All their plantations and businesses must be turned over. They can only carry cash and a portion of their family assets.
But.. Any large family considers fixed assets as the most important part!
One could only have so much money!
Su Ping pulled a long face. Qin Duhuang had told him about the defensive line.
He understood nothing about geographical location. He doesn't care about such a problem.
Still, he trusted Qin Duhuang's judgment. Longjiang would be treated as part of the defensive line, unless the location of the base town was too far away.
“Do you have a map? I need to see something, ”said Su Ping.
An elder from the Qin family said at once, “Ya. Mr. Su, please pass here.”
They went to the building lobby and put the sand table. The lobby was originally used to display some ceramics, rare pet fur, and shells that the Qin family had collected over the years. It was no longer an exhibition hall; the sand table, plus a map of the Subcontinent District and the world were the only things on display.
“This is Longjiang Base City.” An elder of the Qin family pointed to the map.
Su Ping looked. He saw a place next to the mountains and there was a small flag with the word “Longjiang” written on it.
“Bapak. Su, we..”.
The elder of the Qin family thought of introducing Su Ping but the latter gestured for him to stop.
Nobody said anything.
Su Ping looked at the locations of the base cities on the sand table, as well as the Dragon Spine Forest and the Northern Mountain Trail; two of which flanked the basic city landscape.
There were more than a dozen base cities built around that area; twelve of them were close to the Northern Pass Mountain, including Longjiang which is closest to the mountain and further away from the Dragon Spine Forest.
However, looking at the big picture, the distance between Longjiang and the Dragon Spine Forest was insignificant. Longjiang Base City was by no means a weak link.
“Can you contact Xie Jinshui?” Su Ping asked.
Liu Tianzong shook his head. “Xie Jinshui is busy calling everyone she knows. You have to go to the town hall. ”
Su Ping nodded. “I'll do it.”
He's gone right away.
The others looked at each other. Someone whispered, “Is Mr Su thinking of going to the Tower personally to ask for help?”.
“Apply to Tower? Mr. Su once went there to beat them up. Do you really think Master Su will go and beg the Tower for this? “The tower knows that Longjiang Base City has Mr. Su, but they don't put us into the defensive line. They obviously did this on purpose; they would not budge even if Mr. Su went to beg.”
“I don't know. Maybe they tried to humiliate Mr. Su to force him to crawl towards them.”
“This is a special time. Master Su could not beat them anymore. If he injured or killed the legendary battle pet warrior again, he would fight against the entire human society. We cannot have internal disputes at this time.”
“Why can't he? We didn't start it, the Tower did it, talking nonsense about geographical locations, weak links, and what not. What the fuck? We're not stupid. They can't even fool the general public with this.”
“I really can't understand the Tower. Longjiang has two legendary fighting pet fighters and we still have to move. How could they make such a foolish decision?”
“No wonder Mr. Su does not approve of the Tower. I think the legendary fighting pet fighters are indifferent to fame and fortune. But... they are just like us.”
“Silence. You can't say that. This is not something we should think about. If they know..”.
They look at each other. Although they were angry, they stopped talking.
Indeed indeed.
Su Ping was able to shake the Tower because he had the ability and courage!
On the other hand, they themselves were not legendary battlefighters. Other than the Qin family, no other family had legendary battle pet warriors. If their grievances were announced, the Tower could easily destroy their families.
This is the suffering of the weak.
They were very angry, but could not even complain about it.
City Hall.
Everyone in the town hall knew Su Ping from his picture. They would bow to him respectfully and no one would stop him.
When Su Ping found Xie Jinshui, the latter was on the phone while standing by his office window.
“Ji, please, we've known each other for many years. Can you please send me a message? I'll go and thank you personally after this is over.
“You know about us. Longjiang Base City is not a Class C settlement. We are also not Class A, but we have legendary battle pet fighters!
“Ji! Huh hello?
I'M ME I'M ME
Call ended.
Su Ping pushed the door open and entered.
Xie Jinshui turned around in shock. He produced a forced smile after Su Ping's unexpected appearance. “Bapak. Su, how long have you been here?”
“Wait a minute,” Su Ping said calmly, “I've been informed of the situation. Did someone intentionally create a problem for us?”
After looking at the sand table, Su Ping then discovered that the reason for removing Longjiang from the defensive line was completely irrational.
The state of Longjiang Base City is not valid to ignore!
Xie Jinshui wished he could say something but stopped thinking twice. He shook his head and replied, “I don't know. Qin went there to find out; the Tower had to show him respect. Although, I still wonder if he will come back with good news. ”
“Tower manages Xing-Jing Defense Line, right? How many legendary battle pet warriors were responsible? Who's the leader?” Su Ping asked.
He could think of one of the legendary pet warriors from the Tower with whom he shared a deep hatred.
Yun Tianchen's.
If Yuan Tianchen was the person behind it all, Su Ping would no longer show mercy.
Although Su Ping put on a calm face, Xie Jinshui's experience as mayor allowed him to immediately realize Su Ping's killing intent. Surprised by him, he immediately said, “Master. Su, this must be some kind of misunderstanding; don't give in to the impulse. If you fight the Tower, you will put yourself against the whole of humanity. Tower represents justice today, and justice always wins!”
“Not justice always wins. The defending party wins.”
Su Ping snorted. “I won't deal with them for now. They're trash, but the public is innocent. Members of the Tower are rotten, but they must fight to protect the base cities and this is their only value.”
Xie Jinshui was relieved. “I'm glad to hear it. I'm confident that you'll be the one to keep your word, Mr. Su.”
“I. You don't have to warn me. ”
“No, no, that's not what I mean, Mr. Su.” Xie Jinshui waved his hand at once. He will continue when his phone rings. “Qin Duhuang's. He must have returned.” Xie Jinshui looked pleased.
He answered the call without hesitation.
“I failed.”
He heard two words that dispelled all his joy and hope.
Su Ping also heard it. He narrowed his eyes.
Xie Jinshui became dazed. He stood in a daze for a moment, not even realizing that Qin Duhuang had hung up the phone. After a while, he regained his senses and saw that the call had indeed ended. He produced a forced smile and said to Su Ping, “Master. Su, why don't you go back home? I have to make some calls. I have some old school friends I can call, and I know that my wife's family has some connections. I'll call them..”.
After seeing the forced smile, Su Ping said, “You don't need to find anyone. Because the defensive line doesn't want us, we'll just defend ourselves. ”
Xie Jinshui was shocked. “This strike is unusual. I heard that there is a big problem in the Inner Cave. According to some ancient and secret records, I know that the ferocious beasts contained within are far more terrifying than any we have ever seen in a barren area. The former was heartless; there must have been over a hundred beast kings in the Inner Cave!”
“You don't need to guess,” said Su Ping, “There may be more than a thousand beast kings, but they are spread all over the world. The Subcontinent District only had to deal with a hundred or two, and Longjiang only had to fight against dozens of them. ”
“More than a thousand?” Xie Jinshui was so shocked that he almost dropped his phone.
He curled his lips and turned pale. “Kita? Tens?”
He looks desperate.
Dozens of beast kings! How scary!
They were enough to flatten Longjiang Base City!
They had Su Ping and Qin Duhuang in Longjiang but the base city was no small place. If they were placed on the east side, the west side would be left unattended. If a savage beast were to come from a different direction...There would be nothing Su Ping could do!
“Do not worry. I am here, ”said Su Ping to the trembling mayor. I'm here!
Those three words boosted Xie Jinshui's confidence.
He looked at Su Ping and said with a heavy mind, “Master. Su, I don't know how far you can reach, but I understand that you are better than the ones in the Void State. Still, dozens of beast kings... Can we do this?” “I will open my store for business, and I will call some friends for help. I have seen the sand table; I can keep one side and Qin Duhuang can look after the other. The other side can be protected by my fighting pet, ” said Su Ping.
“But..”.
“Nothing but. Let's do it!” Su Ping cut off Xie Jinshui.
Xie Jinshui was inspired by Su Ping's determination. He took a deep breath and the worry in his mind finally disappeared. “You're right. Let's do it!”
“No one wants to help us, no matter how I plead. Those bastards. I knew that begging would not work and I was done with begging!
“Depend on them is worse than relying on ourselves. Damn it, we're gonna do this!!”
