Astral Pet Store

Was that punch the end of Legend Pluto?

He was at the Void State! How could he have died with just one move?

Some legendary battle pet warriors tried to search for Legend Pluto. There were traces of him in the ruins, so they hurried over and moved the rocks and boulders away.

“Legend Pluto!”

What they saw filled them with apprehension and made their lips curl. Legend Pluto’s corpse was indeed found in the ruins. His head was crushed, as well as his chest. Only his torso could be recognized but blood, and the torn skin made it too horrible for the eyes.

Legend Pluto wasn’t breathing. His death had been too tragic!

Horrifying!

People looked at the young man hovering in the air, the person who was more like a god among demons. He stood up straight, overlooking all of them.

Legend North King and the bold old man were so shocked that they stared woodenly and their jaws hung low. Same as Legend Pluto, they were at the Void State; and yet, Legend Pluto was unable to make it through after one move. They didn’t have to ponder to know how weaker they were compared to Su Ping!

They had reasonable suspicion that Su Ping had already reached the Fate State!

After all, they had gauged the power of the punch by merely watching, and they could see the air splitting. Neither of them could have done that!

A

Whoosh!

The peaceful Force Field behind Legend Buddhist Sound vanished. He stopped sustaining it; he was too shocked to fight against Su Ping.

Legend Pluto was even more powerful than he was; he had found that out in their previous matches. However, Legend Pluto had been killed by Su Ping in an instant. Legend Buddhist Sound simply felt lucky he didn’t give in to his impulses. Otherwise, people would have been digging out his corpse right then. Even if Su Ping wasn’t at the Fate State, he wasn’t one whom they could have competed against.

All the legendary battle pet warriors at the Ocean State had been struck dumb.

Legend Pluto, the one they had looked up to died an instant, which was not something they could have imagined. This young man is a killer god!

“Huh?”

Su Ping stood in the air and the Force Field was wiggling behind him. He noticed that Legend Buddhist Sound had lost his will to fight. Still, Su Ping didn’t relax. If anything, he was even more alerted and furious.

He didn’t know where the anger and alertness came from, but he couldn’t stop feeling disappointed.

Indeed, he was disappointed.

Those were the most powerful warriors on the Blue Planet.

However, all he was able to see were faces wearing shocked and fearful looks.

Is this how the powerful people look?

He clenched his fists and suddenly understood why they had not dared to go when they heard the name Otherworld Heavenly King.

They were even afraid of him, one who was at the seventh-rank, not to mention the Otherworld Heavenly King which was at the Fate State.

He opened his mouth. “Give me what I want! We won’t interfere with each other from here on!”

The legendary and titled battle pet warriors came back to their senses. The titled battle pet warriors were even more panic-stricken. They had been working at the Tower for so many years, and yet, they had never seen anything like that. Nightfall Mountain had been standing there for ages. If people learned that it had been split, the entire world would become an epicenter!

Su Ping finished expressing his mind but no one answered.

The legendary battle pet warriors looked at each other speechlessly. Those at the Ocean State had placed their hopes on those at the Void State, while those at said rank were hesitating.

They could have teamed up to deal with Su Ping if he were like them. Still, Su Ping had demonstrated a much more powerful strength; they didn’t know what to say in reply.

It would be a disgrace for the Tower if they said yes and gave him what he wanted!

Su Ping had created too much trouble to be let go like that. However... no one present had the capabilities to stop Su Ping. Therefore, no one had the guts to utter vicious words for fear that Su Ping’s anger would be rekindled. It was evident that another round of conflict would follow if they decided to disagree. No one wanted to be the person being targeted by Su Ping.

One

No one said a word while they were thinking about different things. Su Ping bellowed, “What, no one can make the decision here?”

Those at the Void State looked pale, especially under the gaze of those who were at the Ocean State. Why don’t you go and tell him? they inwardly complained. Someone flew over from the distance while they were struggling.

That noise gradually increased as he got closer and closer.

They looked up; they were more than glad to see that person. “Deputy Chief!” “Deputy Chief is here. This guy is over.” “He broke the Nightfall Mountain. He’s doomed!”

Many legendary battle pet warriors could not help but flash their smug smiles. They had been too afraid to breathe deeply with the mere prospect of fighting Su Ping on their own. They didn’t even forget to hide their joy; they became less tense.

Legend Buddhist Sound, Legend North Kingand the others who were at the Void Statewere relieved. They would have also lost all of their dignity if no one in charge faced Su Ping.

Su Ping turned around upon hearing the noise. The one who was on his way over was a white haired, middle aged man; his white hair cascaded down his back. There was indifference reflected on his face. He placed his hands behind his back; he would teleport every now and then as he flew over. He had arrived in a few seconds.

“Huh?”

The white-haired man frowned when he saw the crushed Nightfall Mountain. He looked around and fixed his gaze on Su Ping.

He was surprised to see a person covered in white bones.

A strange form of merging! He could tell right away that was not the normal merging because Su Ping and his pet were not integrated. It was more like Su Ping was “wearing” the pet.

“Who are you?” the white-haired man asked in his authoritative voice.

Su Ping had heard the legendary battle pet warriors’ conversations. “Are you the Deputy Chief? I’m Su Ping from the Longjiang Base City. I came here to ask for an herb.” “An herb?”

The white-haired man frowned. The man asked coldly as he stared at the crushed Nightfall Mountain, “If so, why are you acting wildly here?”

“No reason. They simply wanted to kill me so I punched back,” Su Ping answered. “Nonsense!”

One legendary battle pet warrior stood up to land the blame. “You were accusing us of not helping you defend your base city and you came here to make trouble!” “Indeed!”

“I can prove that.”

“Deputy Chief, you must right this wrong for us. He has already killed three legendary battle pet warriors, just relying on his strength!” The legendary battle pet warriors piled on angrily, never mentioning Su Ping’s contempt and raving words. Just the fact that he had killed three of their peers and friends without leaving complete corpses behind was enough to fill them with rage.

The white-haired man was having a hard time believing that. He said while locking his eyes on Su Ping, “You said you’re from the Longjiang Base City. I have some recollection of that place. The place that the Otherworld Heavenly King was about to strike was the Longjiang Base City, right? We have the right to consider whether to send legendary battle pet warriors. That is our business and we have to do it voluntarily. That is not our obligation”

He added, “If we were willing to help, it would be because we were too kind. You could not blame us for anything if we were unwilling. Who said anything about the strong being obligated to save the weak?”

“Right!”

“Listen to the man!”

The other legendary battle pet warriors eyed Su Ping with hostility.

Su Ping laughed, instead of flipping out. “I actually agree with you! I never said anything about you having to save us. But, you’ve taken our money. Half of the taxes people pay every year are for you. People have squeezed themselves to save up enough money for you!

“You should have done something since you’ve taken our money. If you didn’t have such abilities, then the least you could do is to listen to some teachings!

“Me killing them had nothing to do with you not helping us.

“I killed the three because they hated me for what I said. And I thought I didn’t have the right to accuse them. Tit for tat. That is my

rule!

“If I were killing people just because you folded your hands while people were dying, well, well, then it wouldn’t have been three dead bodies!”

“Outrageous!” someone yelled.

“The Deputy Chief is here. How dare you continue your arrogant way!”

“What? Are you implying that you can kill us all? Darn! This punk must be punished with death!”

“Kill him. This vicious man is not worthy of his strength.” “Indeed. Leaving him free and at large in the world can lead to tons of troubles!”

All the legendary battle pet warriors were denouncing Su Ping.

Su Ping couldn’t help but break into laughter.

“Haha...” “I’m not worthy of my strength? Did you give me the strength? No. I worked hard to earn it!

“I can lead to tons of troubles? You let the wild beasts strike us while you entertained yourselves here. Now you’re talking about future troubles. What a load of nonsense.”

The Deputy Chief pulled a long face. “Be aware that this is the Tower, the palace with the most authority on the Blue Planet. You’re also at the legendary rank. Have you not thought about the consequences?”

Su Ping stopped laughing. “What? The place with authority doesn’t allow for some harsh words? I’m here for that herb. Now, give it to me and I’ll be on my way. I will never set foot here again. You’re more than welcome if you want to come after me to avenge the three deceased!”

“It’s not easy to become a legendary battle pet warrior, but you just had to destroy your future. I will let you go if you can take one of my moves. If you cannot, then prepare to serve at the Deep Caves for the rest of your life!”

Su Ping sneered. “Try me.”

Su Ping had already noticed that the Deputy Chief was at the Fate State the moment he arrived!

To be honest, Su Ping couldn’t have told that with his seventh-rank. But he noticed that because he had seen too many legendary battle pet warriors at the Fate State!

All the Celestial Gods in the Demigod Burial were comparable to legendary battle pet warriors at the Fate State. He was so familiar with that unique energy. He was able to tell right away.

For Su Ping, dealing with those at the Fate State was not easy, but he wasn’t afraid; he was able to sense that the Deputy Chief wasn’t one of the powerful ones. The Deputy Chief was too weak in comparison. It was likely that he had just reached the Fate State and was even weaker than the Otherworld Heavenly King.

“Outrageous!”

“Deputy Chief, use your God Devourer to finish him!”

The other legendary battle pet warriors cheered for the Deputy Chief. He wasn’t bragging. His most powerful reliance was his sword!

Nothing else would matter if Su Ping could withstand that one strike.

The Deputy Chief didn’t say anything in reply. He opened up two swirls and from them hopped out two beast kings at the Void State.

One of them was a dragon. That dragon was much more honorable compared to the Inferno Dragon and other dragons with a titled rank bloodline.

The dragon was as huge as a mountain. It flew to the Deputy Chief and merged with him before it landed on the ground.

The Deputy Chief grew by several times, reaching close to eight meters. Golden dragon scales covered his skin and his eyes also turned golden, full of majesty.

He waved his hand and grabbed a white sword from the void.

The sword was three meters long, mounted with seven skulls. The sword cast a thousand beams the moment the Deputy Chief took hold of the sword. His Force Field appeared. There were figures of deities moving about in that force field. He gave off such a sacred feeling that people couldn’t even look at him.

Su Ping put on a serious face as the Deputy Chief was gaining momentum. He took precautions. His Force Field began to spin and some of the faint demons became clearer.

At the moment, the two of them stood in the air, but they seemed to be like a demon and a deity facing each other.

One of them was a god giving out radiance and the other one was a demon that could swallow all light with a weeping fiend behind him!

Flames burst out from the sword the Deputy Chief was holding. That was a sword that could cut up everything and anything in the world.

Su Ping’s eyes reddened. He could feel his skin splitting.

He perceithe smell of death. But that stimulation made him all the more craving for that smell!

Roar!!

A demon crawled out from the Force Field behind him and wrapped itself around Su Ping. Su Ping’s vigor grew instantly! A second demon came out and entangled Su Ping.

Su Ping’s strength grew again with the two demons’ help!

The Deputy Chief’s pupils contracted wildly. He poured all of his energy without hesitation and focused his mind on the sword.

Boom!!

The sword was drawn! Time and space shivered!

Twisted marks appeared in the air. All light vanished as if the sun had fallen.

Su Ping shouted and unleashed his Fist of Exorcist.

The massive golden fist whooshed out and the majestic Skeleton King behind him punched out from his throne.

Boom!!

Heaven and earth quivered.

The sword and the fist-bumped into each other. All sound in the world died down.

A booming noise came out. The glaring light ate up everyone’s sight. Some titled battle pet warriors felt a pain in their eyes; some of their eyes even began to bleed.

Even the legendary battle pet warriors had to use their hands to shield the light.

After the glaring light came tides of energy that were burning hot, pushing everyone backward.

Boom!!!

A noise that echoed in the sky lingered in the Mysterious Realm!

That noise lingered for a long time.

Everything settled down after who knows how long. Those present could not wait to refocus once they regained their eyesight.

What they saw came as an astonishment.

Su Ping and the Deputy Chief were still standing in the air. Both of them?

They saw that the young man was covered in blood.

The Deputy Chief was not any better. His white hair was gone, all gone.

There was blood at the corner of his mouth as well.

Su Ping breathed deeply. There was pain everywhere. He wasn’t hurt because of what the Deputy Chief did to him, but because he had overexerted himself. He was merely at the seventh-rank. He had to leverage the Little Skeleton and the Force Field to withstand a strike from a warrior at the Fate State.

The Deputy Chief was eyeing Su Ping with disbelief.

The hand he had used to hold the sword was shivering and his arm was numb. That energy passed down his arm to his entrails. He felt the astral powers inside him were boiling, making him want to puke.

This young man survived my strongest move?

Even the four Heavenly Kings would have been badly mauled! The Deputy Chief realized that Su Ping was seriously wounded and he seemed to have been already injured before.

“Finish him!”

He wielded his sword again; the sword was shining with boundless radiance!

“Huh?”

Su Ping looked at the man standing opposite of him. Coldness appeared on his face. The Deputy Chief had said that he would let him leave after one move but he was wielding his sword again. He was cutting the weeds and digging out the roots!

Su Ping couldn’t even believe that such a nobleman would break his promise!

“You are not... Worthy enough to kill me!!”

Su Ping was swept by a wave of anger. He had one more item from the old dragon king that he could use, an item that could send him to a random place, but the item could only be used once.

He did not use it when he was fighting the Otherworld Heavenly King. Back then, he could have been sent away from the Longjiang Base City, although the base city would have been destroyed, except from his store. Even if in the end the Heavenly King stepped into the bounds of the store and was killed, the Longjiang Base City would still be gone. Su Ping would have hated to see only his store survive. After all, he loved and cherished many customers and friends who lived in the base city.

The other titled and legendary battle pet warriors were surprised to see their Deputy Chief draw his blade again. Some were happy while some were less so.

All of a sudden, people heard a sigh.

“Let’s stop right there.” It seemed that the sigh came everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
