Chapter 383 Renowned

Su Ping went back home.

Su Lingyue was still with their mom, gently comforting her.

Su Ping understood that all those pieces of news had come as a great shock to their mom. All this time he had been hiding his true strength from her for all this time, then she found out all of a sudden. A million questions were awaiting Su Ping.

He felt a headache.

“Ma.”

Su Ping called her in a low voice.

Su Lingyue and their mom were still chatting when they heard him. To their surprise, Su Ping was standing by the door, craning his neck to peer.

It had been a long time since Su Lingyue saw Su Ping treading so carefully. All of a sudden, a familiar feeling from the past came back to her.

Li Qingru stood up and walked to Su Ping, worried and nervous. A torrent of questions was thrown at him.

Su Ping produced a forced smile. He walked his mother back to the sofa while setting her at ease, then he slowly told her the story.

He had worked out an explanation before went back.

For starters, he said he had been lying to her; he had been awakened quite a while back.

Back when he was in elementary school.

However, back then, considering the fact that the financial situation in the family didn’t allow for two battle pet warriors to thrive, he had decided to keep it a secret and cultivate in private…

Halfway through his story, Su Ping noticed that his mom had burst into tears. He felt it was a bit difficult to continue the story.

Su Lingyue stared at Su Ping in a daze. She wasn’t sure if Su Ping’s story was real or not but tears were pouring from her eyes. She remembered how she had begun bullying and bossing Su Ping around when she was younger, right after she was admitted to the professional schools for battle pet warriors. Who would have thought that he had been swallowing the humiliation for all those years…

Suddenly, she felt she had been quite the jerk.

Su Ping was busy comforting his mom when he noticed the sadness on Su Lingyue’s face. He was speechless. True. To hide a lie, a thousand lies would be needed.

Su Ping had to avoid the trivial and dwell on the important. He ended that part quickly and shifted the conversation to the major issue. He said, “Ma, you must know that the organization Yan Bingyue comes from will most likely come to see us. But do not worry. I have powerful help in the store. No one who comes to make trouble will make it back.

“For the coming days, just stay at home. No one can hurt you as long as you stay in this street. If you want to shop for groceries, just order them online and have them delivered. We have money now. Spend all you want!

“The point is that, no matter who comes to find you or get you, do not leave this street.” Su Ping sounded serious. Li Qingru turned around and wiped the tears off her face. When she turned back, calmness had been restored on her face. She asked Su Ping, “Are you sure? That girl was able to parachute into the competition… Her organization is not one to be underestimated, then. If you feel uncertain, you and Yueyue can escape first. I can stay here.”

Su Ping was surprised by the determination in her eyes.

A strong mom.

He never expected that his mother could stay so composed when she was usually tender and gentle.

He took a deep breath. “Ma, don’t worry. No one can hurt you as long as I’m still here. They would have to kill me first before they reach you!”

“Don’t say that!”

“You take that back!”

Li Qingru and Su Lingyue shouted at once, trying to get rid of the bad luck that was contained in his words.

Su Ping smiled. He said nothing but he had become more determined than ever.

In life, there has to be some people that you would want to protect.

For him, it was his family!

…

After he told their mom what she needed to do, Su Ping added a few words to Su Lingyue and cautioned her not to run about randomly. Then, he went back to his store.

He believed that the Star Organization would look for him directly when they arrived.

They would not hurt his family or threaten him with their well-being. For starters, that would be a mean move. Secondly, it could be ineffective.

After all, some titled battle pet warriors had a distant relationship with their families. They had all their minds focused on cultivation. It was unrealistic that a titled battle pet warrior could be forced to surrender by threatening to take other people’s lives.

That kind of rash action would alert the enemy. The powerful battle pet warriors that valued friendship and relationships were few and far between.

The higher a person’s status was, the more distant they would become after experiencing many things. That was reality.

He went back to the store.

Su Ping called Lin Ziqing who was helping him collect materials.

“Where are we on the materials?” Su Ping went directly to the point and he sounded impatient.

He had given Lin Ziqing enough time but the latter had failed to deliver. He was a titled battle pet warrior and the company he owned was involved in business, both legal and illegal. He had a wide range of connections. Still, a long time had passed but he had failed to locate one material. Su Ping felt he must have been too lenient!

“Well…”

Lin Ziqing had recognized the number was from Su Ping. But it came as a surprise that Su Ping would sound so unfriendly. Lin Ziqing pulled a long face. He still remembered the young man very well. The scene where Yuan Tianchen fled Su Ping’s store in embarrassment had left a deep impression on him!

“Ah, Brother Su, I have been meaning to say hi but I don’t want to intrude,” Lin Ziqing said with a laugh, trying to engage in some small talk first.

“I said, how is the search for the material going?” Su Ping asked again. Lin Ziqing’s expression changed. He could sense the killing intent in Su Ping’s voice. Scared, Lin Ziqing didn’t try to continue with his irrelevant conversation. “We found it. There was a small incident in the process but I’ve taken care of that, just a while ago. Brother Su, if you’re in a hurry, I’ll have it delivered as soon as possible.”

“How soon is that?” Su Ping pressed.

“Well… the day after tomorrow, I suppose?” Lin Ziqing sounded hesitant.

Su Ping sneered. “It takes less than a day for a ninth-rank beast to fly across the entire Subcontinent District. I give you twenty hours. I will come to your door if I don’t have it by this time, tomorrow afternoon!”

With that said, he hung up.

Lin Ziqing already had the material but was playing delay tactics. Su Ping believed that he had applied too little pressure on Lin Ziqing and he had not paid enough attention.

At the same time, in a base city far away from the Longjiang Base City. In a certain luxurious room, after the call was ended, Lin Qizin squeezed the cigar in his hand with a clouded face.

It was hard to imagine that he had to listen to a

kid.

He’s practically telling me to use a ninth-rank battle pet to make the delivery. Why is he in such a hurry? Did something happen? Lin Ziqing calmed himself down. He remembered what had been happening in the Mysterious Realm. Yuan Tianchen summoned the board members and was secretly undoing the seals.

So, did the kid know about this?

If his sudden rush was about the Mysterious Realm, he must have a source of information about the Mysterious Realm.

Lin Ziqing was a bit frightened. The exploration in the Mysterious Realm was off the record. It was unlikely that someone inside Yuan Tianchen’s group was a mole. Lin Ziqing didn’t think that the kid could exert such an influence. After all, those who were part of the group were not fools. Who would betray a legendary battle pet warrior to help a kid?

Besides, very few people knew the entire story.

Suddenly, Lin Ziqing realized something shocking

If it hadn’t been through a mole, then the kid must have learned the information from other sources. For example, being qualified to receive the legacy.

He blinked. A long time passed and frustration reached his eyes.

He could report this theory to Yuan Tianchen. But what he did in the pet store that day was too disappointing.

It was jaw-dropping!

The legendary battle pet warrior in the store was much more powerful than Yuan Tianchen. If Lin Ziqing had to choose, he would naturally choose to follow the more powerful side.

“He…” Lin Ziqing bit his teeth. Eventually, he heaved a sigh because of this vexing problem. I’ll pretend I know nothing and wait till a result can come out. I don’t think Mr. Yuan is letting that kid off the hook easily. That kid is a strange one. The girl with the golden hair is full of secrets…

Lin Ziqing rubbed his forehead. He was in such a dilemma.

Given the fact that he had risen to a high status, he wouldn’t usually get this feeling. The kid had given him so much trouble.

Anyway, I should send the material to him first. That punk. How dare he threaten me? F**k… Lin Ziqing hurled out some insults but he still made the call.

At the store. After Su Ping ended the call with Lin Ziqing, he grabbed Joanna and went to the cultivation site. Of course, the fact that Lin Ziqing was able to decipher so many meanings from his simple threat was not known to him.

After all, Lin Ziqing was a titled battle pet warrior that could influence both the legal and illegal business. He was more sophisticated than Su Ping could ever imagine.

While Su Ping headed to the cultivation site, what happened at the Elite League’s venue had stirred up a huge sensation in the Longjiang Base City.

On TV, on the internet, everything was about that event.

It was so shocking that even some people who worked all year round without any days off had found out about it. People told the story, repeated it and soon, the news was spread across the entire Longjiang Base City.

People would believe it more with images but this time, there were not only images. There were videos!

Three titled battle pet warriors died!

The champion was determined!

The boss of the Pixie Pet Store!

All those pieces of news went viral.

As the main character reported in the news, Su Ping had become known all across the Longjiang Base City.

What he looked like, his name and other information were exposed. For a moment, everyone in the Longjiang Base City learned that a mysterious talent had come out from nowhere… Nowhere!

There were debates about Su Ping’s age and rank.

Someone claimed that he was a titled battle pet warrior.

But others would refute the proof of the test.

Some even questioned the manufacturing company that produced the test device.

The company was not local; it was in another base city but with a branch office in the Longjiang Base City. At the moment, the branch office’s official website had been flooded with questions and comments.
