"I'm sorry for dragging you into this. I didn't expect there to be such a powerful figure in this shabby store. I'll compensate you for your loss," Yuan Tianchen said to the crowd with a cold expression.
Dao Zun and the others stood up in a hurry.
"Lord Yuan, your words make us feel ashamed. We didn't help you this time, and we even dragged you down. It's already magnanimous of you to not blame us!"
"Ziqing is right. If we hadn't been watching and affected your performance, that girl would have been no match for you."
"Master Yuan, it's all our fault. We didn't investigate clearly and made you underestimate your enemy. Please punish us!"
The few of them scrambled to be the first to do so. Their faces were filled with regret and self-blame as they took all the blame on themselves.
Dao Zun glared at them. He didn't even have time to say anything.
Damn it! Shameless!
Hearing their words, Yuan Tianchen looked better. He shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. I was careless. Besides, the girl wasn't the only legendary battle pet warrior in that shabby store. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been distracted and let her get away with it!"
"That's true."
"That young man was bossing around that legendary battle pet warrior girl. He must have someone behind him."
"We didn't mean to be set up. That young man knew we would be alerted when he got the inheritance of the Mysterious Realm. He had set up an ambush in the store. Luckily, Master Yuan noticed it in time. Otherwise, you would have been in big trouble!"
Everyone was praising Yuan Tianchen with a "Master Yuan, you are so wise" expression.
As for what the real situation was, they naturally knew in their hearts, but who would be so stupid as to reveal it?
Yuan Tianchen's face turned cold. He knew these old foxes were trying to save his face. However, it was better for them to keep it a secret. At least they could pretend to be nice.
He had lost all his face this time. Although he was angry, there were too many witnesses. It was impossible for him to cover it up. As long as they didn't force him in front of his face, that would be enough.
"Be careful when you enter that store from now on. It will be listed as a forbidden area. I will deal with them after the inheritance of the Mysterious Realm is solved!" Yuan Tianchen said coldly.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. There were not many places that could be listed as forbidden areas.
However, considering how dangerous the store was, it could be considered a forbidden area. Even a legendary warrior like Yuan Tianchen almost died there!
"Master Yuan, is there anything else we can do for you regarding the inheritance of the mystic realm?" Wu Guansheng asked respectfully.
The others nodded as well, their faces full of eagerness. However, in their hearts, they couldn't wait to get as far away from this troublesome matter as possible. After all, they weren't the ones who would obtain the right to inherit the secret realm.
"Rest and reorganize during this period of time. When there is a suitable opportunity, I will inform you."
Yuan Tianchen's eyes glittered as he said, "The next time the Mysterious Realm opens will be when all the Mysterious Realms are unlocked. Although the young man got the qualification, he won't be able to get the inheritance as long as the Mysterious Realm is not fully unlocked. My granddaughter's constitution will reach the Greater Mastery soon. She should be able to pass the ninth dragon bone and get the qualification!"
Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
They all knew that Yuan Tianchen's granddaughter was a true genius, a phoenix among men!
Apart from the fact that she was born as a battle pet warrior, she also had a unique constitution!
People with such a constitution were rare even in the world. Those who had such a constitution were the cream of the crop, one in a hundred million!
Yuan Tianchen, a legendary battle pet warrior, had taught her with great care. Three years ago, when she was sixteen, she had graduated from the best academy in the Subcontinent District. She was the best student in the academy that year and had broken many records. She was the center of attention!
Two years ago, she had reached the seventh dragon bone and was as strong as a titled battle pet warrior!
A year ago, she reached the eighth dragon bone and was even stronger!
A year had passed since then. She had a good chance of reaching the ninth dragon bone.
"Master Yuan, you are right. Given Miss Yuan's talent, it will be a piece of cake for her to obtain the inheritance!"
"Once Miss Yuan is qualified, the dragon soul will be chosen again between the two of them. Miss Yuan's constitution will make it easy for her to defeat the young man."
Everyone was flattering her.
But this time, they weren't just trying to flatter her. They had met Yuan Tianchen's granddaughter before and knew how terrifying she was. They had never seen anyone of her age who could rival her in terms of power.
Of course, the blonde girl they had met in that shabby store was an exception.
After all, the blonde girl had almost killed Yuan Tianchen. She was at the legendary rank, one of the most powerful ones. They would never believe that her real age was the same as her appearance.
Yuan Tianchen was proud of himself when his granddaughter was mentioned. What he was most proud of was not his own combat strength, but his granddaughter.
He was confident that he could train his granddaughter to be more powerful than he was and that she would surpass him!
"Go back and tell the family members of the board that the Mysterious Realm will be open again. Tell them to get ready. This time, the Mysterious Realm will not be open to the public," Yuan Tianchen said.
Everyone nodded. They felt sorry for the explorers. According to the original plan, the Longtai Mountain would be open to the public three to five times. However, because of Su Ping, the Longtai Mountain would be closed to the public for good.
After Su Ping obtained the inheritance, the Mysterious Realm would lose its value and be abandoned.
…
…
Twenty-four hours had passed.
Ding!
Su Ping, who was sleeping in the nursing pen in the store, was woken up by the system's "ding".
He sat up and heard a series of notifications.
"Store upgrade successful. The current level is level three!"
"The virtual map of the store territory is being loaded …"
"The new functions of the store are as follows —"
Su Ping listened to all the notifications. He shifted his consciousness and an illusionary store panel appeared in front of him.
On the panel were records of the store's income, information about the pets that were being nurtured and received. At the top of the panel was Su Ping's profile picture and his personal information.
The store owner's information included Su Ping's combat strength, rank, talent, constitution, skills, and many other aspects. The information was comprehensive.
Su Ping browsed through the information and went back to the new functions of the store. He had already learned about the new functions. They were nothing more than the ability to sell pets, the test space, and the opening of professional training.
At the same time, Su Ping saw an employee form next to the panel.
He clicked on it. There was only one person on the list, Joanna.
Joanna's personal information was also recorded in detail. As the owner of the store, Su Ping had the right to have a look.
