Astral Pet Store

Chapter 1328 Demise of the Primordial Empyrean Master (1)

“You’d better focus on taking care of yourself, in case you cannot come back again,” said Diqiong dryly, but her heart was warm. The enemies of the Golden Crows were naturally the Heavens. Su Ping had heard all the rumors about them and still promised her that, which was a touching gesture.

Su Ping smiled and said goodbye to Diqiong.

He didn’t act covertly; he summoned the returning channel and disappeared from Diqiong’s view.

The Chief Elder looked thoughtfully from the nest, as if his eyes had penetrated time and space, allowing him to see the scenery outside. He narrowed his eyes and mumbled, “Whoever is able to enter and leave this place so easily has to be an ancestor-level powerhouse. I wonder which sorcerer ancestor is backing you…”

Pixie Pet Store.

Su Ping appeared in the pet room. His consciousness was spread outward, and he immediately saw that everybody was waiting in an orderly fashion. The scene was almost exactly the same, like any other day.

However, the difference was that most of the battle pet warriors in line were Star Lords. Some were even Ascendants.

It’s been more than a month. I wonder what’s going on outside. Su Ping’s eyes glittered. He left the customers’ pets in nursing pens and opened the door. Su Ping’s arrival instantly caught everyone’s attention. Joanna and Green Lady-who were behind the counter-were both dazed and surprised to see him. They quickly rushed over.

“Are you okay?”

Excitement flashed in Joanna’s eyes. Even though she was acting cool, Su Ping could notice the delight in her eyes.

“You must have been worried,” said Su Ping apologetically.

He had never been in a cultivation site for that long; they must have been concerned for him.

“Everything’s fine as long as you’re fine.” Joanna relaxed. She had been worrying every day since Su Ping left. If he went to another powerful world other than the Archean Divinity, there was the risk of him being erased by some super expert before he could resurrect.

As far as she could assess, the power backing Su Ping’s store had to be on the Ancestral God level.

That was the top level she knew. It was still too far in the distance for her.

Considering Su Ping’s personality, it wouldn’t be surprising that he would piss off an Ancestral God.

“You jerk!”

At that moment-a teary and excited cry burst out. Tang Ruyan rushed into Su Ping’s arms.

Su Ping was stunned for a moment; it took him a couple of seconds to recover. After feeling the softness in his arms and the fragrance coming from the girl’s shoulders, he paused for a moment and said, “You’re soaking my clothes.”

Tang Ruyan left Su Ping’s arms; his shoulder was already wet. She quickly wiped her tears and gnashed her teeth, “Why didn’t you tell me you’d be away for so long? Where could we find you if anything happened to you?”

“It surely had to do with some sort of accident. He didn’t do it on purpose,” Green Lady explained for Su Ping’s sake.

Tang Ruyan certainly knew that too. She was simply too excited and wanted to vent some of the emotion.

‘Where could we find you’…I didn’t know I was already so important to you… Su Ping’s heart shook when he heard Tang Ruyan’s questioning. He glanced at them and suddenly realized that too many people had grown attached to him before he realized it.

He raised a hand and rubbed Tang Ruyan’s head, then said, “Be a good girl; you’re not a child anymore. Nothing will happen to me; and even if anything does happen, you must live on.”

“Stop spouting nonsense!” Tang Ruyan refuted.

Joanna rolled her eyes at Su Ping. She said, “You’re the heir of the magic store; I won’t allow you to say anything frustrating like that!”

“Did you feel any danger?” asked Green Lady. “I was just kidding.” Su Ping grinned, seeing how serious they were. He then noticed that all the customers were looking at them. He coughed and said, “Let’s do business for now and talk later. How has it been outside?”

“You’d better ask your master. We’ve haven’t left the store since you left; the only thing we know is that the war is heated and a lot of Ascendants returned from the front lines to train their pets,” said Joanna angrily. She then left and returned to the counter.

Green Lady nodded and said, “I heard that a lot of places have fallen. Better ask your master about the details.”

Su Ping thought it made sense. He looked at Tang Ruyan who seemed willing to talk, but then rubbed her head again and said, “All right, do your job. I’ll ask my master about the general situation.”

Tang Ruyan puffed her cheeks and didn’t say anything

Su Ping flashed and disappeared from the store. He sensed that his master’s aura was in a building across the street. Chi Huo and Xu Kong were in another building; they didn’t seem to have left the street.

“Master.”

Su Ping appeared in the building. There were barriers outside the building, but Su Ping was able to pass them with ease. Considering his newfound understanding of the Great Dao, the arrays on such a level were no different from fishing nets.

“Huh?”

Shen Huang-who was pondering in front of a map—was definitely shocked when someone popped out from thin air. The shock grew when he saw it was Su Ping. He looked around and found that the alarms hadn’t been triggered. “How did you get in?”

“I just walked in. The barriers are only so-so; they can only block normal Celestials, which is useless for me,” Su Ping explained. Then he asked, “Master, how is it going outside?”
