Chapter 541 Recovery

Reinforcements?

Beast king? Has a legendary battle pet warrior arrived?!

Inside the commanding center, people looked at each other in speechless astonishment, seeing the joy in each other’s eyes. A legendary battle pet warrior had arrived to help them!

The Hancheng Base City could be saved after all!

The mayor could hardly believe this. He was confused… He remembered that the Tower had turned down his request for help. Had some legendary battle pet warrior found the time to go there and offer a helping hand?

“Let’s go and welcome the legendary battle pet warrior,” the mayor said at once.

Either way, the Hancheng Base City would be safe with the support of a legendary battle pet warrior. He would be able to fend off two beast kings, or everyone could step in to offer assistance if it was too much.

The mayor told some to stay in command and took the rest with him and headed east to welcome the legendary battle pet warrior.

On the east side.

Gunfire rumbled. Many battle pet warriors were outside the city, fighting the wild beasts, together with their battle pets.

The ground was shaking.

Three beast kings were fighting in close quarters. The previous wild beast formation was disrupted and they were slowed down.

The combat between the three beast kings was intense. They unleashed many legendary rank skills, tearing up the ground, breathing out fire and causing chaos by accidentally killing the wild beasts around them. Roar!!

The bellows and howls lingered in the battleground. The crocodile was savagely striking one of the wild beast kings, regardless of the attacks dealt by the other wild beast king On the city wall, the previously despondent battle pet warriors were crying tears of joy.

Some battle pet warriors who were volunteering from other base cities were surprised to see the crocodile. They recognized that the beast king looked familiar.

This is the beast king we saw in the Longjiang Base City, right?

Isn’t it the ride of the Fate Challenger, who had killed a legendary battle pet warrior in the Supremacy League?

Right then, the tie between the three beast kings was broken. The crocodile had heavily mauled one of the two wild beast kings; the latter was trying to escape while another beast king was attempting to slow down the crocodile. The crocodile had two opponents but was gaining the upper hand, which had become the source of hope for many.

Soon. The mayor and his generals had arrived. They climbed to the city wall and observed.

Someone immediately approached the mayor and reported the current situation. To their relief, the crocodile was a beast king on their side. He was surprised that the legendary battle pet warrior’s single beast king could have taken care of two wild beast kings. How terrifying.

Whoosh!

A person flew over to the city wall. The mayor recognized the person, much to his astonishment.

The mayor hurried over. “Venerable the Blade, what a pleasant surprise. Thank you so much for coming over to help!”

Venerable the Blade smiled. “You are very welcome. I couldn’t have sat around while the wild beasts were murdering people of my own kind.”

The mayor was in a great mood. The situation would improve with a legendary battle pet warrior around. The mayor had yet to realize that the beast king belonged to Venerable the Blade and was still under the conviction that a legendary battle pet warrior was there. The mayor was grateful, even though he believed that Venerable the Blade’s presence was merely icing on the cake at that point.

“I believe that my partner can take care of the two wild beast kings. I wonder, how are the other places doing, sir?” Venerable the Blade asked.

The mayor was still searching for that legendary battle pet warrior when he heard the surprising words. “Your partner? Have you come… with a legendary battle pet warrior?”

It wasn’t strange for Venerable the Blade to arrive with a legendary battle pet warrior.

Venerable the Blade noticed the misunderstanding. He chuckled. “I’m here by myself. The partner I’m referring to is the Swamp War Crocodile.”

The mayor was dumbstruck.

That vicious beast king belongs to Venerable the Blade?!

The mayor was well aware of Venerable the Blade’s fame and the fact that he was working for a legendary battle pet warrior. There was a great chance that he would reach the legendary rank at some point. But the mayor had not heard about him already having a beast king.

“Sir, have you reached the legendary rank?” The mayor could not help but speak with more respect.

Venerable the Blade found it amusing that the mayor would become so timid all of a sudden and was gloating inside. Venerable the Blade had already been in a great mood after he had gotten the beast king from Su Ping. The charm of the beast king had left him in an even better mood.

The mayor was also at the peak of the titled rank and was the governor of a city. In theory, the mayor enjoyed a higher status than Venerable the Blade, but the former was holding the latter in awe.

That had to be one of the perks of the legendary rank… Venerable the Blade was even more eager to reach the legendary rank. “Sir, you have misunderstood. I haven’t reached the legendary rank. A friend of mine gave me this battle pet.”

The mayor: “???”

Given to you?!!

The mayor stared at Venerable the Blade in a daze.

The mayor noticed that Venerable the Blade didn’t seem much different from before. He had to be telling the truth about not having reached the legendary rank yet.

But…

That was a beast king!

Who would give away a beast king?!

Not to mention such a vicious beast king! A legendary battle pet warrior might want to give away a weak beast king that he or she no longer needed, but certainly not one that was this powerful!

If the said legendary battle pet warrior no longer needed that crocodile, how powerful would the other battle pets have to be?

The mayor found it scary to even just think about it. “Congratulations, sir.”

Venerable the Blade laughed. He changed the topic back to the pressing matter at hand. “Sir, how are the other places doing? Any more beast kings?” The mayor shook his head. “Not that we know of for the time being. Sir, thank you for your great gesture. The people of the Hancheng Base City will never forget your kindness.”

Even though Venerable the Blade turned out not being at the legendary rank, the mayor was still speaking with respect. After all, with such a terrifying beast king, Venerable the blade would no longer be viewed as a common titled battle pet warrior at the peak.

Venerable the Blade was relieved. “Good. I managed to arrive on time. Sir, you don’t have to thank me. As a matter of fact, my friend wished that I would come and help. You can thank him instead. I wouldn’t have been of much use without the beast king he gave me, even if I had come.”

The mayor asked, “And your friend is?”

“He’s an interesting and strange guy. He lives in the Longjiang Base City and runs a place called Pixie Pet Store there. He goes by the name of Su Ping, a legend who claims that he’s not a legendary battle pet warrior. I wonder if you’ve heard of him. He’s the one who killed a legendary battle pet warrior during the Supremacy League.”

Venerable the Blade believed the mayor had surely heard about that shocking piece of news.

“Him?”

The mayor was stunned. Of course, he would have paid attention to a grand event like the Supremacy League and heard about the sensational happenings. First, the old man of the Qing Family had stepped out and revealed that he was in fact at the legendary rank; then, a mysterious man with little to no background went out and killed him.

Many people knew that.

Venerable the Blade’s vicious beast king had been given to him by that guy.

He also told Venerable the Blade to go there and help. It seemed that the violent guy was not that cruel after all.

“I will pay a visit and thank him in person,” the mayor said sincerely.

“Let’s take care of the Hancheng Base City first. My friend doesn’t care that much about formalities.”

The mayor nodded. He told his generals to work together with the Swamp War Crocodile and drive away the wild beasts.

The Swamp War Crocodile produced quick results; Venerable the Blade didn’t even step in. He wasn’t familiar with the beast king yet, so he was afraid he might hinder the beast king if he were to give improper instructions.

Soon after, the crisis looming in the east was resolved. The mauled beast king ran away and the Swamp War Crocodile killed the other beast

king.

The wild beasts fled in a hurry.

The mayor didn’t order a pursuit. He saved strength so that the other sides could be helped.

That night,

The news said that the Hancheng Base City had succeeded.

People cheered.

The burden had been lifted. Venerable the Blade’s face was seen on all the official TV channels of the Hancheng Base City. People applauded and thanked him.

Pixie Pet Store. Longjiang Base City.

Su Ping was still training pets, day in and day out.

He would eat in the cultivation sites if he got hungry; he would also take a nap there if he felt sleepy. Every time he returned to the store, he would merely take another batch of pets before he left for the cultivation sites again.

He trained dragons in dragon realms and picked up some pet food that dragons liked. He ingested some mysterious herbs in the cultivation sites. Some got him killed and some strengthened him.

Dragons weren’t his only focus.

He visited various realms of different elements to train the pets of the element families.

In realms of fire, he trained pets of both the fire family and the ice family alike.

The former could pick up new skills of the fire family and collect more fire energy while the latter could become more resistant to fire and might even mutate.

One of the pets of the fire family had mutated. The pet could use skills of both the fire and ice families and even its appearance had changed. The pet’s combat strength had increased drastically.

In addition to the realms of fire

Su Ping visited realms of thunder and ice; all of them were cultivation sites of middle rank.

Su Ping gained a lot in the realms of thunder.

He was exploring while training the pets. He encountered a mysterious zone of thunder and lightning; it helped him gain more understanding of the rules of thunder in his battle against beast kings. He could even simulate some legendary skills of the legendary rank. He had also collected much food liked by pets of the thunder family.

Time flew.

Ten days passed.

By the time Su Ping ended the training, thirteen days had passed ever since the strike on the Longjiang Base City.

In the two weeks or so, the Longjiang Base City had gradually stepped out from the shadows cast by the war. The base city was gaining back its vitality and becoming even more lively than before. Stores were reopening. After all, people would have to make money to make ends meet.

The underground railways were in operation again, so that people in the Longjiang Base City could go out for supplies and powerful battle pet warriors could go to the Longjiang Base City again.

The Longjiang Base City’s economy was recovering
