Yuan Tianchen had a history with Su Ping but that didn't stop Dao Zun from coming here again.
After all, he was "forced" to take care of Su Ping's pets. Yuan Tianchen knew about this and didn't stand up for him. Therefore, Dao Zun had to fulfill his promise to Su Ping.
Su Ping nodded to Dao Zun. "Sir, you're here."
"Has your store been renovated? I almost couldn't recognize it. Especially the two stone carvings by the door. Did you hire the best craftsmen to carve them?" Dao Zun looked around. He wouldn't have recognized the store if it weren't for the signboard.
Su Ping nodded. He stood up and pulled out a chair for Dao Zun. "Sir, please have a seat."
Dao Zun was under his control but Su Ping still respected Dao Zun.
"You're welcome." Dao Zun said at once. Since Su Ping had pulled out a chair, Dao Zun had to sit down as well. "Where is your Little Skeleton? I'm here to take it to practice saber skills."
Su Ping smiled. "Sir, you don't have to practice saber skills outside. I have a place in my store. I'll take you there when I'm done with my business."
"Okay."
Dao Zun could tell that Su Ping was in the middle of a discussion. He darted a look at the two girls sitting across from Su Ping. He didn't know either of them. One of them was an ordinary girl and the other one was weak. Dao Zun thought she should be at the fourth rank. She wasn't bad for her age and strength, but she was far from being a genius.
Besides, a monster like Su Ping was sitting in front of them. No matter how young the geniuses were, they would be overshadowed by him and wouldn't attract his attention.
"And this is …"
Mu Shuangwan stared at Dao Zun in a daze. Her mind was blank.
She couldn't believe what she was seeing.
That man was Dao Zun?!
That famous titled battle pet warrior?!
She wondered if she had seen wrongly, or if the person in front of her just looked like her?
Song Lu, on the other hand, didn't have much of a reaction. She just felt that the person who came in had a good temperament. He was even more imposing than a celebrity who had trained her body. She looked at him for a while, then looked away and said to Su Ping, "Mr. Su, about the money …"
"You don't have to worry about the money. A few hundred million won't be a problem," Su Ping said to reassure the other party.
It was unknown how many customers he could attract after spending hundreds of millions on publicity. However, for Su Ping, even if the customers he attracted could only contribute tens of millions to the store, it would still be a huge profit.
After all, the store's revenue could be converted into energy, and energy could be used to buy things in the store, which was far more valuable than star coins.
Song Lu was stunned. She did not expect Su Ping to be so arrogant. A few hundred million was not a problem?
She sized up Su Ping again. Not even some rich kids from major families would be able to get as much money as he did, unless he was a core disciple of a prestigious family.
That being said, Song Lu had always been well-informed in this circle. She had never heard of any Su family in the Longjiang Base City.
"Are, are you Dao Zun?"
At this moment, Mu Shuangwan, who was sitting on the chair, asked Saber Master in a low voice as she carefully looked at him.
The man in front of her looked so much like Dao Zun that she had seen in pictures. She couldn't help but ask.
Venerable the Blade darted a glance at Su Ping and then switched to the Devouring Skill.
He would have ignored the question from others. However, this was Su Ping's store. He couldn't figure out the relationship between this girl and Su Ping. He nodded. "Yes, it's me."
Mu Shuangwan opened her eyes wide.
She felt suffocated.
It was really him!!
Good heavens!
She was trembling. As a descendant of a battle pet family, she naturally understood what kind of person Dao Zun was and how important he was!
This was simply a god-like person!
She had heard that Dao Zun was not just any titled battle pet warrior, but a battle pet warrior at the peak of the titled rank!
He had a chance to reach the legendary rank!
He was more powerful than the entire Mu family. Once Dao Zun reached the legendary rank, he would be at the top of the planet. He would not be a match for any titled battle pet warrior family.
She couldn't believe that such a god-like figure was sitting right in front of her.
Mu Shuangwan felt her heart pounding wildly, as if it was about to burst out of her throat. Her body was heating up, and her blood was pumping faster. She said in a trembling voice, "Senior, Senior Saber, Mu, Mu Shuangwan greets you."
"Good." Dao Zun nodded. He was surprised to see how excited she was. But then, he realized that this girl probably wasn't close to Su Ping.
After all, everyone around a monster was a monster. Joanna had blond hair. She didn't seem to notice Dao Zun at all. Instead, she looked indifferent. Dao Zun seemed to be despising him.
"Dao Zun?" Song Lu was surprised. After all, she wasn't a member of the battle pet warriors' circle. She was well-informed but she had never heard of this name before.
Of course, this was just a title, not his real name.
Only titled battle pet warriors could address people with this name. Was this a titled battle pet warrior?!
Song Lu was surprised by Mu Shuangwan's attitude. She didn't know that a random person in the store would be a titled battle pet warrior. Also, it seemed that this person was close to Su Ping.
"Sir, nice to meet you," she said at once. She lowered her head and looked at Dao Zun with respect.
Dao Zun could tell that Mu Shuangwan was just an average person. It was against the rules for a person like her to call him sir. He frowned but said yes anyway.
"Sir, what are you doing here?" Mu Shuangwan asked cautiously.
Why would such an honorable person show up in the Longjiang Base City? Not to mention that he was in an unknown pet store.
Dao Zun answered casually, "I'm here to do something. Go ahead."
Since he didn't want to talk about it, Mu Shuangwan didn't ask any more questions. However, she had shifted her focus from the contract to Dao Zun. If she could build a relationship with such a person, it would be beneficial for her and the entire Mu family.
"Senior, I am from the local Mu Clan. If you have the time, why don't you come to my place? My Clan Head, Mu Tian Liu, has long heard of your great name and would like to pay you a visit." Mu Shuangwan said respectfully with a smile.
Song Lu was surprised. Of course, she knew who Mu Tianliu was. Mu Tianliu was one of the most powerful titled battle pet warriors. Why would such a person want to pay a visit to this person?
Song Lu sized up this person again. She realized that she had been wrong. This person was not just a titled battle pet warrior. He could be one of the most powerful ones among the titled battle pet warriors!
"Mu Tianliu?" Dao Zun was surprised. He knew this person but he didn't know that this girl was Mu Tianliu's junior. He nodded. "That won't be necessary. Say hello to Brother Tianliu for me when you have time."
"Sure."
Mu Shuangwan nodded. She was disappointed. She tried to think of something else to talk about.
Su Ping didn't know what to say. "Miss Song, let's finalize the contract first."
Song Lu and Mu Shuangwan came back to their senses at the same time. Only then did they remember that Su Ping was sitting next to them. Mu Shuangwan sized up Su Ping. This young man was about the same age as her, but he was able to act so calmly while sitting next to Dao Zun. Was this young man one of Dao Zun's juniors?
"About the contract …" Song Lu cleared her throat. She was ready to talk about this seriously.
"That's easy. Mr. Su, we will do as you say. As for the endorsement fee, if you are short on money, I can reduce it by half," Mu Shuangwan said.
Song Lu was surprised.
She turned around and stared at Mu Shuangwan in disbelief. Half the price? That was a whole 25 million yuan, which was a huge sum of money to her!
"No need. Let's do as we agreed. I will leave the promotion to you," Su Ping said.
Mu Shuangwan nodded.
Su Ping signed the contract as well, seeing how straightforward she was.
Song Lu was speechless when she saw that the two of them had reached an agreement so quickly. How could they negotiate a contract so quickly? This was even faster than buying a bun! But she didn't dare to say anything because of Mu Shuangwan's attitude. Song Lu could guess what was on Mu Shuangwan's mind.
Sometimes, making connections was far more important than money.
Su Ping stood up and walked them out of the store.
Mu Shuangwan didn't want to leave. But she didn't want to upset Dao Zun so she left the store. Before she left, she said goodbye politely, trying to leave a good impression.
…
"Wan-er, do you know that guy?"
In the car, Song Lu couldn't help but ask.
Mu Shuangwan waited until the car was out of the street before she could relax. She heaved a sigh of relief and shook her head. "I don't just know him. He is Dao Zun, someone below the legendary rank. He can chop the average titled battle pet warriors like vegetables. Many people believe that he has a chance to reach the legendary rank!"
"Below the legendary rank …"
Song Lu was speechless.
She was even more speechless when she heard the words "chop the vegetables."
As far as she was concerned, an eighth-rank battle pet warrior like Dong Mingsong was already a big shot, not to mention a titled battle pet warrior. However, that man could kill a titled battle pet warrior so easily. He had to be below the legendary rank. He was … way out of her league.
He was above the clouds!
"No wonder …" Song Lu finally understood why Mu Shuangwan, who had always been arrogant, had such an attitude.
It would be difficult for others to buy a smile from her. But with that man, he didn't say a word and she took the initiative to smile and strike up a conversation with him. That was the charm of a powerful battle pet warrior!
"Have someone look into this store. I want to know about Su Ping's background," Mu Shuangwan said to Song Lu.
Song Lu nodded. She could tell from Su Ping's attitude toward Dao Zun that the two were close.
"If my grandpa knows that Dao Zun is in the Longjiang Base City, he will go to visit him in person. I have to tell my grandpa about this …" Mu Shuangwan murmured to herself.
