Chapter 388 The Zhou Family Arrives

A Golden-crowned Eagle, at the upper position of the ninth-rank!

Its wingspan could reach over a hundred meters!

The gale stirred up dust on the ground. The owners of other stores on the street ran to their doors in a panic and looked up at the sky. The reporters gathered by the store stared dumbfounded at the bird and hurried to use their cameras to film the scene.

Su Ping could tell that there was a human on the back of the bird, which meant that the bird was a tamed pet. He covered his bowl with his hand so that the dust would not fall on his food. He was about to say something when a person jumped off from the bird, or flew down.

That person was holding a metal container and he was flying toward the store. Su Ping suddenly realized that this had to be the material he asked from Lin Ziqing. So soon?

First, Lin Ziqing claimed that he could only make the delivery the day after the next. It seemed that nagging worked.

Su Ping grabbed a bite, gathered some astral powers to cover the bowl, and used Thunder Sprint to dash to the store.

The person with the container was a strong, middle-aged man. He was wearing sunglasses and a suit.

He was about to knock when he noticed something. He turned around, only to see a person in slippers and a white sleeveless T-shirt coming to him with a bowl of food in his hands.

A second before, he was a hundred meters away. He had arrived in the next second.

Thunder Sprint?

The person wearing the sunglasses was taken aback.

“Are you Lin Ziqing’s man?” Su Ping asked. The middle-aged man was surprised, hearing this person address Lin Ziqing directly. Soon, he recognized that this was Su Ping, the one Lin Ziqing had told him about. He had seen Su Ping’s pictures.

Before making the trip, Lin Ziqing specifically told him to treat Su Ping politely; by no means could he displease the young man!

The middle-aged man sized up the young but failed to see anything special about him. The young man’s rank seemed to be average. However, the speed he had been able to reach just then was amazing; it didn’t appear to match with the young man’s rank.

How unique.

“That is correct.”

The middle-aged man nodded. “You must be Mr. Su Ping. Lord Lin told me to hand-deliver this to you.” “Yes, I’m Su Ping.”

Su Ping was glad that this man was indeed Lin Ziqing’s man. Finally, the last material he needed for the Solar Bulwark was there. He could officially finish the first level!

Open the door! Su Ping thought in his mind and the door was open.

“Come inside.”

Su Ping held the bowl and stepped in. He saw Tang Ruyan was sitting on the sofa, eating the ice cream from the fridge that he had bought on purpose.

“Huh??”

Tang Ruyan felt guilty when Su Ping showed up right when she was just having a bite of ice cream. Soon, her attention was caught by the man in the black suit.

The man was showing his energy without any disguise. She was familiar with that. The titled battle pet warriors in her family were like him. Another titled battle pet warrior?

“Open the container,” Su Ping said. While he was sure that Lin Ziqing would not fool him, he had to inspect the item nonetheless.

The man in the black suit nodded. When he entered the store, he darted a glance around the place, curious about the store that even Lin Ziqing was afraid of. But he failed to notice anything uncommon. It was just a spacious store with beautiful decorations.

As for the girl eating ice cream, the man in the black suit looked past her.

“Sure.”

The man in the black suit carefully put the container on the table and opened the coded lock.

A puff of cold air escaped the container. Su Ping took a look and confirmed that it was indeed what he had asked for.

“Close the container,” Su Ping said. He wasn’t going to use it at the moment.

The man in the black suit said, “I will excuse myself if that’s all right with you.” “Sure.”

The man in the black suit bid farewell and left the store. His eyebrows were knitted together when he saw all the media outside. He was about to fly back to the Golden-crowned Eagle when a car drove by the street and pulled over close to the store’s entrance. Two people stepped out.

Both were titled battle pet warriors!

The man in the black suit was shocked.

It never occurred to him that he would be able to meet two titled battle pet warriors so easily, especially on such a crappy street in that remote base city.

When he was looking down from the sky, he saw that the environment on the street and the neighboring streets was quite harsh. The road was full of bumps and hollows. Only this store had a decent look.

The two people who got out of the car were surprised to see the man in the black suit who was also standing by the store’s door. They could feel that this man was at the intermediate position of the titled rank and he wasn’t trying to hide it! He was wearing a suit. He wasn’t a greeter from the store, was he?

Confused, the two moved through the crowd.

The reporters in the vicinity seemed to be greatly surprised to see them. Some of the more seasoned reporters were even afraid. They recognized that those two were from the Zhou family!

Both were at the titled rank. Dozens of years back, the two were men often mentioned in the news from the upper class of the Longjiang Base City. Almost all the wealthy and influential people back then knew of the two.

At their birthday parties, many people would still attend and bear presents!

Those were the big potatoes!

People who could do whatever they wanted in the city!

Some of the news reporters were more focused on the car which was a standard model for explorers with the best settings.

To have a car like that, one would have to be a top-level explorer and besides, one would have to have the money and connections. There were less than twenty of those cars in the entire Longjiang Base City!

Twenty might sound like a big number but considering that the Longjiang Base City had tens of millions of people and with the sheer number of the rich, twenty cars were far from enough.

The crowd stepped to the sides to make way for the two.

No one dared to stand in their way.

The two stepped up the staircase. When they saw the dragon statue outside the door, both felt nervous, as if a beast were staring at them.

They had seen the store in videos many times, but this was the first time they had been there in person. The two dragon statues were very much life-like. This sensation was not conveyed through the videos.

The higher one’s rank was, the more nervous one would be when looking at the two dragon statues.

“Is Mr. Su in?” one of the two asked the man in the black suit. He thought the latter was a greeter.

It wasn’t surprising to see Su Ping use a battle pet warrior at the intermediate position of the titled rank as a greeter.

The man in the black suit was surprised.

He knew that they were asking for Su Ping.

The two titled battle pet warriors had to be at the upper position because he felt pressure in front of them.

They were both there for Su Ping?

The man in the black suit nodded. Among battle pet warriors, those with stronger power should be honored. The man in the black suit said politely, “Mr. Su is inside.”

“Mr. Su?” Baffled, the two from the Zhou family eyed the man oddly.

This man didn’t seem to know Su Ping well.

In the meantime, Su Ping had placed the metal container in the pet room and closed the door. Without his permission, no one could enter the pet room. That was the safest place there was.

“Well?”

Su Ping sensed someone had stopped by the door. One of the two seemed familiar. He remembered that it was Zhou Tianguang, an elder of the Zhou family.

He still remembered Zhou Tianguang; he was kind of a cornerstone in the Zhou family.

The other man, though, Su Ping didn’t know him.

“Why isn’t Zhou Tianlin here?” Su Ping asked.

The two old men put on smiles at once.

“Our family head is stuck in some business and he specifically told us to come together. Here is a small present for you to show our goodwill.”

Then, Zhou Tianguang handed Su Ping a rectangle box. The steel pattern on the outside looked exquisite.

Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He had invited the family head, but the family head was scared to show up and only sent over two elders. The Zhou family was surely trying to fool him. He couldn’t wait to see what the present was, and whether it was a worthwhile replacement for the family head.

“What is that?” Su Ping asked directly.

Su Ping didn’t even beat around the bush a bit. Inwardly, Zhou Tianguang wore a bitter smile on the inside, but he didn’t dare to show disrespect. He opened the box with a smile, revealing two tubes with red liquid. “Two tubes of dragon blood!”

Zhou Tianguang explained solemnly, seemingly unwilling to give that away. “The blood is not from common dragons, but from legendary rank dragons. Mr. Su, you have the Inferno Dragon. This blood is the most useful for its kind. I hope that your dragon can grow stronger and stronger, able to display even more power!”

Su Ping was disappointed.

Blood of dragons at the legendary rank?

True, this was useful and could surely improve the Inferno Dragon’s rank.

The thing was, though, he didn’t want that. He had to find a way to stop the Inferno Dragon’s rank from growing. Only when the Inferno Dragon reached a combat strength of 10 could it be at the sixth rank, and rated as above average. With that, he could offer a training service for advanced pets in the store.

Besides, if he wanted dragon blood, he could go to the Demigod Burial. With Joanna’s help, he could get better dragon blood.

Zhou Tianlin and the other elders were unable to believe that they would see disappointment on Su Ping’s face.

The man in the black suit had not left yet. He was shocked by Zhou Tianlin’s words.

Blood of dragons at the legendary rank?

Did he give that to the young man?

Tang Ruyan was just as stunned. She didn’t even notice that the ice cream had melted on her hand.

The two titled battle pet warriors had paid a visit to give Su Ping things to butter him up?

Who was this guy exactly?!
