Chapter 673 Departure

“Hurry up and give me your phone. I know you have one!” Su Ping waved his hand impatiently. He could not let a chance slip by. Once those people left, given the scale of the strike, people around the world would be plunged into an abyss of misery!

He would curse so hard that those people would have to go after him and he would leverage the system’s strength to keep them inside the store and force them to help!

“I really don’t have a phone…” The middle-aged man stepped back even further. “Mr. Su, the data communication stations in the barren areas have been destroyed and I cannot reach the Mysterious Realm. I would have made the call for you if I could.”

“Is that so?”

Su Ping frowned. He was unable to tell whether the man was telling the truth or not.

“Do you have Space Swallowers?”

“Well, I only came here to take you to the interview so I didn’t bring them.”

Su Ping pulled a long face. “Then go back and tell that man that he’ll have to come here and meet me in person. Tell him that I don’t care about that crappy academy. Tell him that I’m waiting for him here. He’ll be a coward if he doesn’t show up!” The middle-aged man was speechless.

He had no doubt that he would be the first person to die if he did deliver that message.

“Well…”

“And if you don’t tell this message to that man before they leave, I will go to the Tower to find you and take your life!” Su Ping threatened the man.

At first he wanted to persuade the man by saying that it was a matter of billions of lives.

However, that legendary battle pet warrior… Maybe it was prejudice, but apart from Li Yuanfeng and his other comrades the Deep Caves, Su Ping didn’t care about and did not trust the other legendary battle pet warriors of the Tower.

He believed that a death threat would work better with them.

The middle-aged man was dumbstruck.

The little bit of friendly feeling he had just nurtured for Su Ping disappeared.

People would often say that the gap between a genius and a lunatic is small. This guy here is definitely a lunatic!

It wasn’t that he was making those people leave. He thought he was trying to protect Su Ping!

After listening to Su Ping’s words… If he were the teacher, he would have gone there at once to slap Su Ping to death!

He didn’t want to deliver the message because he would hate to see Su Ping die over that.

“Mr. Su, I will deliver the message, but I think they’re in a hurry, so they don’t have much time. I don’t think they’ll come here because of the provocation.” The middle-aged man was trying to leave a way out for himself.

mess

Delivering the message? No way. Nah. Not in a lifetime.

“No time?”

Su Ping raised his eyebrows.

He gave it some thought, then said, “It would take less than an hour for someone at the Star Rank to get here from the Tower. He can make it with that time, right? So, I think he’ll make it if I get more passionate in that message.”

The middle-aged man didn’t know how to react.

He did know he was about to lose his mind.

This guy here is trying to catch up with death!

Why insist on challenging someone at the Star Rank?

“Well… Mr….”

Su Ping cut him off and grabbed his shoulders, “You will have to repeat my message, word for word. Anyway, take out your phone to record it so you can play it back to them. I worry that you won’t be able to remember everything that I’m going to say. After all, sometimes cussing doesn’t come out right if you miss out on a letter!”

The middle-aged man was dumbstruck. Still, threatened by Su Ping, he had no other choice but to dig out his phone.

He put the phone on record. Su Ping cleared his throat, took a deep breath and went, “#¥ %*…” (And a ten-minute series of very good and pleasant comments ensued.)

The middle-aged man: “…”

His hands were trembling.

He thought that Su Ping had surely been brought up in a dirty ditch.

Those dirty words… The man just felt lucky that he wasn’t the target of such abuse. Otherwise, he believed his heart would implode! Su Ping went on for 10 minutes without so much as taking another deep breath!

“I think that’ll do.” Su Ping finally stopped. He thought about it. From that person’s ancestor to the women in his life, to the academy and the future, he made sure he “commented about” everything.

If that person remained calm and left directly after listening, then perhaps… he really was in a hurry.

“All right, you can go back. Do hurry,” Su Ping patted the middle-aged man’s shoulder and said, “Remember that you must play this to them because it’s related to billions of people’s lives, yours included, of course. If he doesn’t come, you will come here and I’ll see what to do!”

The middle-aged man was shivering.

This ten-minute recording of curses had to do with the lives of billions of people?!

If it weren’t for the fact that he knew what the recording was, he would have thought that Su Ping was recording the launch codes of some super nuclear weapons!

“I, I understand.”

The middle-aged man looked at Su Ping and suggested, “Mr. Su… don’t you want to think it over?”

“What? I wasn’t comprehensive enough?” Su Ping wondered.

Never mind!

The middle-aged man turned around and left. A few seconds later, he turned back and said, “Mr. Su, if that man doesn’t come here… please show me some mercy!”

With that said, he flew away quickly.

Su Ping frowned.

He still had some concerns so he called Xie Jinshui.

“Mr. Su, everything is normal…” “It’s not about this,” Su Ping cut Xie Jinshui off, “Do you know the commander-in-chief of the Xing-Jing Defense Line? Can you call him? Ask him if they have any Space Swallowers, and to hand me some if they do. I have to contact the Tower.”

“The Tower?” Xie Jinshui was startled, “What is it?”

“Nothing. Just afraid that someone won’t be able to deliver my message,” Su Ping said. “What message?”

“It’s a long story.” “Well… I’ll take care of it.”

Su Ping was more relieved after making that call. He would have gone to the Tower and ridiculed that man in person if he didn’t have to rely on the store to contain a Star Rank warrior.

Xie Jinshui called him back a few minutes later, “Mr. Su, I just called Mr. Lu who is in charge. He said that they had one Space Swallower but it died with Lord Nie in the Longjing Base City when he did. “They’re applying to get more from the Tower and the new ones on their way. It will take some time.”

Su Ping cursed inwardly.

This damn luck!

He wished he could make that Lord Nie come back to life so he could destroy him all over again.

He sure was good enough to accomplish anything, but more than enough to spoil things, Su Ping said to himself. “Xie, think about it and ask that Mr. Lu to find another way. See if you can borrow one from the other defense lines. Hurry. I want it within two hours.”

“Okay. Will do.”

Su Ping sounded angry. Xie Jinshui thought the matter had to be serious.

“I hope my threat will work…” Su Ping gazed at the sky with worry.

In the meantime, the recording that could save billions of lives was flying toward the Tower.

At the Tower.

The huge spaceship was still in the air, which was stressful for the legendary and titled battle pet warriors.

Whoosh!

A person reached the hovering hill under the spaceship. “You’re back.”

Gu Siping frowned, but he soon wore a natural look.

This man returned… sooner than I expected. He looked at the man with a meaningful glance but asked with a smile, “Why did you come back alone? Where’s that kid?”

The middle-aged man noticed the coldness in Gu Siping’s eyes. The man felt sorry for himself; Gu Siping was going to blame him and Su Ping was a lunatic. What a bad day for him.

“Well… sir, Mr. Su said that he wouldn’t want to leave the Blue Planet,” The middle-aged man lowered his head and answered with respect. “What?”

Gu Siping was pleased to hear that but he pulled a long face and snorted. “Didn’t you tell him that the academy is famous across the Interstellar Federation? It’s a place countless people yearn to enter!

“Once he graduates from the academy, he would have a chance to reach the Fate State easily. He could even go beyond the Fate State and explore the universe!

“Why did he say no? How dare he say no!”

The middle-aged man curled his lips.

He knew that… Gu Siping was deliberately saying those things for the sake of those from the Hugh Mia Academy.

But… What a clever way to butter them up!

“Sir, I told him this, but he said he didn’t want to leave the Blue Planet, and that he was happy here. He refused to come to the interview.” The middle-aged man lowered his head even more so that no one could see the look on his face.

Gu Siping acted as if angry. “How stupid!

“Does he really think he can be proud? Everyone here is better than him!” The middle-aged man curled his lips. He knew that Gu Siping was saying those words to belittle Su Ping, and also to discourage the teachers about selecting him.

After all, he knew that master very well after having stayed in the Tower long enough.

“Never mind.”

The teacher called Mr. Fang said to the middle-aged man indifferently, “I wouldn’t want such a fool. I just feel sorry that we’ve wasted time. I hope I don’t see another condescending person when I come here the next time!”

Gu Siping heard the implied meaning.

Although gloating, he still answered gingerly, “Mr. Fang, please forgive me. Some kids are like this; sometimes they are full of themselves. Don’t be mad because of them.

“A great man will not be disturbed by the unimportant.”

The teacher Mr. Fang turned around. “I’m glad you understand what I mean. Goodbye and good luck to you. I hope you can survive the strike.”

With that said, he stepped into the spaceship.

The others followed him.

The cabin door closed. Yuan Linglu and the others found their seats. They remained seated while they waited, all this time without moving around.

But they did hear every bit of the conversation.

Fei Tianyi was surprised. Su Ping wasn’t coming to the interview? He couldn’t understand why.

On the other hand, Yuan Linglu was visibly relaxed.

He didn’t come.

So, he’s going to stay here on the Blue Planet.

Does he not care about the academy that scouted us?

Yuan Linglu grinned and slightly shook her head. In the end, that person still had a narrow mind.

He thought he was so good. But no one could reach the higher levels on the barren Blue Planet!

No one!

Environments were critical!

Those who lived in barren areas were less refined than those living in base cities. That was how important the environment was!

Goodbye, grandpa… Goodbye… I’ll be stronger than you when I come back!

Yuan Linglu gazed at the view outside the window.

She was excited since she had been granted the chance to go to a place she had yearned for.

She felt sad because she was leaving the Blue Planet where she grew up. Still, she was sure that she would soar to the sky and shine radiantly like that spaceship!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The spaceship flew away, out of the Mysterious Realm.

The seal protecting that place was ineffective to a person at the Star Rank.

Gu Siping and the other legendary and titled battle pet warriors followed the spaceship till it vanished from the Mysterious Realm.

Many legendary and titled battle pet warriors seemed to be disappointed and frustrated. They knew that the only ones who could save the Blue Planet had left, just like that.

They left without showing neither mercy nor hesitation.

Many people were scared, realizing how weak they were.

The middle-aged man gazed into the distance and exclaimed, “They left…”

He didn’t produce the recording of that fine message in the end.

He wanted to protect Su Ping because he didn’t want to see him die.

At the same time, he was afraid he was going to get killed.

After all… those words were too “passionate.”

They were so passionate he was worried that the teacher would not only slap him to death, he would also deal with the other legendary battle pet warriors.

After all, he could very likely do that!

“Did you see him?” Gu Siping checked the surroundings. He asked after he made sure that no one was trying to spy on them. He looked into the middle-aged man’s eyes.

The middle-aged man knew what Gu Siping was thinking about. The former forced a bitter smile. “Sir, I did meet him but something happened on the way and I got delayed. That person was indeed unwilling to come even though I told him everything; he did not care about that…”

That seems reasonable. Gu Siping nodded.

“He will pay the price.” Gu Siping squinted his eyes. “Sir, they left now. What should we do now?” The middle-aged man didn’t want to think about it anymore. He had been moved when Su Ping’s first reaction was the relief since the strike could be averted. “The wild beasts from the Deep Caves are everywhere in the world. Can we… succeed by ourselves?” he asked.
