Chapter 434 Contributions

Some believed it and some didn’t. The latter thought that the old man had just defended Su Ping because he couldn’t stand people accusing the young man continuously.

Anyways, they stopped accusing Su Ping. They decided to let it go.

Su Ping paid no attention to what those people said. Since they had decided not to criticize him anymore, he didn’t feel like trying to defend himself, either. He had only meddled because he wanted to save the train from being destroyed by the beasts, which would delay his journey. He didn’t help out because of those passengers.

“Where is Mr. Huang?” a girl asked nervously.

It was the girl who owned the Red Phantom Dog.

The girl was worried. She waited there for a long time but saw no trace of her butler. Having no other choice, she had to ask Ji Zhantang and Su Ping.

The two advanced battle pet warriors staying with her were also concerned.

They and Ji Zhantang had a dispute. Without the butler present, Ji Zhantang was not someone they could defeat.

Ji Zhantang darted a look at Su Ping.

“He’s dead,” Su Ping answered casually.

The girl turned ghastly pale.

The two bodyguards were astounded. One of them hopped onto the roof of the cabin. Soon, he found the bottom part of the old man’s body.

The dragon was still there, next to the remains.

Although the contract had been broken, the beast could feel something familiar from the remains; it was unwilling to leave.

The bodyguard wanted to retrieve the remains but the dragon bared its fangs. Still, knowing that it was in the human’s world, and there were no other dragons present, the dragon refrained from attacking in an impulse. The dragon grabbed the body, broke the walls, and ran away.

The bodyguard watched the dragon leave before he went back to the cabin.

He told the girl what he had seen.

The girl turned even paler. She bit her lips and glared at Ji Zhantang who was standing in the distance. She believed that Ji Zhantang and Su Ping had surely plotted something when Su Ping survived but her butler Huang had died. The old man must have snuck up on her butler!

“Miss.”

The two bodyguards stared at the girl nervously, afraid that she would cause some disturbance again. Since the butter was gone, Ji Zhantang was too powerful for them.

The girl just bit her teeth and decided to keep silent.

The cabin quieted down.

No one was in the mood to chat after the attack. They were afraid to chat in case more beasts would be lured there. In the quietness, they could hear the other cabins shake.

The shaking came and went.

Everyone was concerned.

Each tremor would mean that another cabin was under attack and there was a fight going on.

Time moved on. Half an hour passed. No more noises were heard in the past ten minutes. When everyone thought that the beasts were gone, they heard a whooshing sound come from above.

Many people were worried. They immediately turned to Ji Zhantang who was the one who could soothe their minds.

neone came

Su Ping also noticed the disturbance. He looked up. The whooshing sound stopped. Someone came down from the tear on the roof. It was the bulky titled battle pet warrior whom Su Ping and Ji Zhantang had met, Wu Tianming.

The attendants were more than glad to see Wu Tianming. “Nice to meet you, Mountain Breaker.” They saluted with respect.

The other passengers were surprised to see a man hovering in the air and the surprise soon transformed into joy. A titled battle pet warrior!

“Help us!” someone shouted.

No beasts attacked them in the past half an hour but the passengers were still eager to leave both the train and the tunnel which was dim and humid. They were on the verge of having a mental breakdown.

Wu Tianming left his cry for help unanswered. He looked around but didn’t see any blood stains or dead bodies, which he did not expect. He cast a glance at Ji Zhantang and Su Ping. “Sir, I was in too much of a hurry and didn’t have time to thank you properly,” Wu Tianming said to Ji Zhantang.

Ji Zhantang waved his hand. “With a greater ability come greater responsibilities. It is our job to protect our people.”

Wu Tianming became even more admirable to the old man. “I have just asked the conductor. The attack was of a large scale this time. Many ninth-rank beasts showed up and many cabins were under attack. The train is too damaged to keep going. “But we’ve already sent a message to the nearest station. A new train will arrive in about 15 hours. “You can change to the new train for free.” After a pause, he continued, “Sir, if you’re in a hurry, we can arrange some flying pets to fly you to your destination. That is a special treat for you two as a way to say our thanks.” As he spoke, he took another look at Su Ping.

The passengers in the cabin looked at each other, relieved and surprised. They couldn’t help but shift their focus to Su Ping.

Just then, Ji Zhantang had mentioned that the young man had helped but they didn’t believe him. However, the titled battle pet warrior had said so as well. Then it had to be true!

They had misunderstood the young man!

Someone felt guilty. The young man had run out to help but they thought he was running away and they accused him of that.

How shameful.

The attendants also felt embarrassed.

They had asked Ji Zhantang to help because he was a master battle pet warrior. But Su Ping, a young man that might even be weaker than they were, was still willing to step out. That courage had shamed them.

Ji Qiuyu realized she had indeed misjudged Su Ping!

She looked at him, only to see that he had remained composed all along. She regretted her accusation; if she were the one helping and was misjudged, she would have also been bitterly disappointed.

She hesitated, wondering if she should apologize.

At the same time, Su Ping had stepped over. He asked Wu Tianming, “I’m in a hurry to get to the Holy Light Base City. Can you get me there?”

Holy Light Base City?

Ji Zhantang and Ji Qiuyu were surprised. That was also their destination.

Wu Tianming nodded. “Sure. I will arrange a flying pet so you’ll arrive on time, or even ahead of schedule.”

Su Ping was happy to hear that. “Good.”

“Sir, how about you?” Wu Tianming asked Ji Zhantang

Ji Zhantang hesitated for a bit. “We are also going to the Holy Light Base City,” He answered.

What a coincidence. Wu Tianming nodded. “No problem.”

“Sir, we want to get flying pets as well.”

“We can offer you money.”

“Sir, I’m from the Sun Family of Whale Ocean Base City…”

The other passengers could not wait to shout about their needs.

With what had just happened, no one could say for sure whether the beasts would come back. Everyone wanted to leave that place sooner.

Wu Tianming pulled a long face. He snorted and quieted everyone down. “That is just for the two of them. Without them, many of you would have died!

“Someone else will come and make arrangements for you if you don’t want to wait. You can file in the request but I don’t know if your requests will be answered.”

Frightened by the titled battle pet warrior, the passengers stopped screaming. “Sirs, please take your luggage and come with

me.”

As Wu Tianming turned to Ji Zhantang and Su Ping, he adopted a kinder tone again. “We don’t have many belongings.” Ji Zhantang took his granddaughter’s hand.

Su Ping had already placed his bag in the storage space so he could leave at a moment’s notice.

They were ready to leave. Wu Tianming nodded and flew out from the tear.

Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter hopped out from the cabin.

So did Su Ping

“Let’s go,” Wu Tianming said. A power field was cast over Su Ping, Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter. The power field carried them into the air and flew them out from the tunnel.

Su Ping allowed himself to be carried by that power.

But Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter were, on the other hand, somewhat nervous. This was the first time that they were in the air without riding on their battle pets. They were moving forward very quickly.

The two of them became even more awed by titled battle pet warriors. Even though Ji Zhantang was merely one rank below than the titled realm, the last step was much more difficult.

In the tunnel, they had seen many dead beasts, as well as shattered cabins. Some human remains were found in the tunnel as well. The smell was filthy.

The smell of blood filled the tunnel.

Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter were grieved by the sight of so many dead bodies.

As they made their way, none of the four said a word.

Soon, they began to slow down. Ahead of them was a vertical tunnel.

Wu Tianming took the three of them and flew upward. They arrived at the end shortly, and found themselves at the surface level.

They were in a desolate place where wild grasses were flourishing.

There were huge crowds; people were building up temporary tents for medical uses.

The injured were being treated there.

A group of people in the distance, close to thirty people. They weren’t wearing uniforms; some of the people were wearing elegant clothes, while others had plain clothes on but appeared to be quite strong.

Most of those people were unhurt.

“They are all from the private cabins and someone did what you did, stood up, and helped,” Wu Tianming said as he landed, slowly putting Su Ping as well as Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter on the ground.

Ji Zhantang and his granddaughter looked at them. Most of them were unhurt and there wasn’t even a trace of blood on them. It was as if the beast attack had nothing to do with them.

Those who had ridden the private cabins were either rich or influential. They were the big potatoes or were related to the big potatoes.

“Mountain Breaker, who are they?”

As Wu Tianming landed, a skinny middle-aged man looked at him with a frown. “I’m sure that all the people from the private cabins are here.”

Wu Tianming answered, “The three of them boldly went outside to help.”

“Help?”

The skinny middle-aged man raised his eyebrows. He looked at Ji Zhantang. Being an eighth-rank master battle pet warrior, Ji Zhantang indeed could have been of great help.

As for the girl that came with him, the skinny middle-aged man understood that she was the old man’s family.

“You three are together?” The middle-aged man noticed that Su Ping didn’t seem to be that close to the old man and the girl.

Ji Zhantang said with respect, “We are from the same cabin.”

The skinny middle-aged man darted a glance at Su Ping and said to Wu Tianming, “This elder has helped so he can go. But you should take the young man back. Just now, many people have helped. Don’t take just anyone here. We don’t have so many Lion Eagles, you know.”

It was then that Ji Zhantang understood why the question had been posed. Scared, he looked at Su Ping

Wu Tianming frowned. “The two of them worked together and forced back a ninth-rank beast. The young man deserves special treatment with a contribution like that.”

“Worked together?” The skinny middle-aged broke into laughter. “Say, what if I found an average person and worked with that man to defeat a ninth-rank… Do I have to give him credit as well? For slowing me down?”
