Chapter 475 First Come, First Served

Xu Yingxue no longer had any doubts. Even while being a dozen meters away and with so many people between her and the pet, she could still feel that she had been thrown into a world of ice. Her blood was freezing and her heart was throbbing. She was covered in a cold sweat.

Pets at the peak of the ninth rank.

Xu Yingxue noticed that she couldn’t utter a sound and was barely able to breathe.

The two pets that Su Ping had summoned quieted everyone down. Su Ping darted a look at the two pets that were standing there quietly.

The pets would be kept in check by the system as long as they were within the range of the store. They could only be put on display and would not be able to attack the customers.

He would have an independent room to put the pets on display once he upgraded the store to the fourth-rank. He could only leave the pets by the door at the moment.

“You can look all you want but remember not to pat them,” Su Ping said to the customers.

The customers came back from the shock. They wanted to reply with a smile but failed.

Pat them?

No kidding. Even looking at the pets was enough to make them shudder in fear. Patting the pets… What? Were they worried that they had been living for too long?

“Okay, listen. Return to your line if you’re here for pet training.”

The customers could look all they wanted but the business had to continue.

Some customers were still standing there, carefully sizing up the two pets. Some customers, on the other hand, hurried back to the line. They could always return and look at the pets after finishing their transactions. They would miss nothing and the pets weren’t going anywhere.

Xu Yingxue stood there in a daze for a moment, but soon came back to her senses. She grabbed her phone again and called the captain, urging him over and over again.

Hurry up! Faster!

Xu Yingxue wished she could yank her captain over from where he was in the distance.

The news that Su Ping was going to sell two pets at the peak of the ninth rank instantly flew out from his store.

The intelligence groups from the major families sent the stunning information back to their families the moment they heard it.

The Qin family estate.

In a garden.

“Yes?”

Qin Duhuang suddenly felt a vibration coming from his wrist while he was enjoying tea and chatting with an old friend. He raised his eyebrows. Only a few could reach him by this number, either those who were close to him or people who had to report something urgent and critical.

Qin Duhuang saw the number. He didn’t avoid taking the call in front of his old friend. “What is it?”

His voice was low.

“Sir, come here, quickly!” a middle-aged man screamed in excitement.

That almost freaked Qin Duhuang out.

“Sir, please come to the Pixie Pet Store right this moment, as quickly as you can. There are pets at the peak of the ninth rank on sale, pets that we have never seen before!” The middle-aged man hurled out the words quickly and Qin Duhuang could tell how thrilled he had to be. It was hard to imagine this word-spill from a middle aged man who was usually stable and serious in both speech and manner.

Qin Duhuang was surprised. Pixie Pet Store?

His mind began to process quickly upon hearing those words. Pets at the peak of the ninth rank… on sale? He soon realized the importance of what he had just heard. Without further ado, he stood up and said to his old friend, “Come with me, right now!”

With that said, Qin Duhuang stood up and took to the skies while he summoned his flying ride.

The old man sitting across the table from Qin Duhuang could not understand what was happening. Why the rush? We haven’t finished tea yet.

The old man decided not to ask any questions. He stood up in haste as well. To asking those questions… he had to catch up with Qin Duhuang first.

Mu family territory, in one of their pavilions.

Mu Beihai was reviewing some documents. The Liu family had to give up half of their assets after their conflict with Su Ping. Right then, the other four major families were eyeing the other half of the Liu family’s assets. The Mu family had merged some of the Liu family’s companies and Mu Beihai had to spend some time considering the mergers and acquisitions.

“What?”

He felt the phone buzzing.

Mu Beihai was interrupted. He cast a look at the number; this had to be something important because the caller was the person he had sent to spy on Su Ping’s store. “What is happening?” he asked.

“Sir, you told us to keep an eye on Mr. Su. Just now, he summoned two pets of unknown kinds outside his store. We have also found out that the two pets are at the peak of the ninth rank and Mr. Su is selling them. We also heard that the price is as low as a few dozens of millions…”

The person gave a very comprehensive, and… slow report.

Mu Beihai’s heart skipped a beat the moment he heard the word ‘selling’.

He wasn’t surprised that Su Ping would have pets at the peak of the ninth rank.

But… he was surprised that Su Ping was willing to sell such pets!

At dozens of millions?

What was that about? Mu Beihai could not understand this. Another idea popped into his mind. Is this all a ruse? Is Su Ping just trying to make us gather at his store?

Would Su Ping do this to catch the whole lot in a single move?

And then… was he going to swallow up all the five major families and be the one overlord of the Longjiang Base City?!

The more he thought about it, the more plausible Mu Beihai thought it was.

After all, who would happily sell pets at the peak of the ninth rank?

At the very least, Su Ping could use those pets as his secondary pets!

Those at the titled rank could have nine pets. So, did Su Ping have more than nine pets at the peak of the ninth rank?

Mu Beihai dismissed that idea. Even he only had three such pets. Even the old fella from the Qin family only had three such pets. Or, maybe he was hiding one more but that was it.

Those who could have nine pets at the peak of the ninth rank were the most powerful among all titled battle pet warriors, and there would be few of such people even in tier-one base cities.

After deliberation, consideration, and hesitation, Mu Beihai decided he should go and have a look.

He believed that Su Ping didn’t have to play games to annex the five major families if that was his goal. He was basically the boss of the Longjiang Base City with the legendary battle pet warrior in his store. His words were like military orders and no one could disobey them! It was possible that Su Ping didn’t even care about a small place like the Longjiang Base City.

After that thought was considered, Mu Beihai realized that his ideas were going in the wrong direction, which filled him with anxiety. He left for Su Ping’s store without further hesitation.

In the meantime, the Liu family, the Zhou family, and the Ye family had already received the news. Their reactions varied but all of them showed up at the store.

At the same time, the rich of the upper class were also informed. All of them hurried over, eager to see whether the information was true.

At the mayor’s office.

Xie Jinshui heard the report. He didn’t realize that Su Ping was going to create such a huge sensation soon after his return.

Su Ping was selling pets at the peak of the ninth rank?!

Is Su Ping quitting as a battle pet warrior?

Or, did Su Ping have enough pets already and no longer needed more? Xie Jinshui went to the Pixie Pet Store without wasting another second. The titled battle pet warriors who worked for the government also set off to try their luck.

If that was true, they would exhaust their means to get one!

A pet at the peak of the ninth rank could distinguish them from the rest of the titled battle pet warriors!

Outside the Pixie Pet Store.

More and more people were gathered there. The residents who were in the nearby streets were there to also have a look.

They were the first ones to arrive since they were close, but all of them were common people. Some had the fortune to have children who had become battle pet warriors. Still, since their pockets weren’t deep enough, those families were unable to raise their children to a high rank. Those battle pet warriors who were merely at the low or middle-rank would never be able to buy the two pets.

Also, even though the price was low enough to make people think that Su Ping was giving away the pets, dozens of millions were a huge sum of money for those from the shantytown area!

Su Ping’s store was being filled to the brim with people.

He was surprised; half an hour had already passed, but nobody had shown up to buy the two pets yet. They’re so slow. He went to the door.

The store was heavily packed with onlookers who would point at the two pets but afraid to get closer.

Cry!

Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound came from the sky which alarmed everyone.

Immediately afterward, the people present looked up and saw a huge bird flying over. The huge bird was more than ten meters large; it looked like a dark cloud, casting a large shadow onto the street.
