The Little Skeleton has finally absorbed all the blood. "
Su Ping was looking forward to seeing the blood-red cocoon. The Little Skeleton had been absorbing the Skeleton King's bloodline for a long time and the progress had been slow. Now that the bloodline had finally transformed, the Little Skeleton's combat strength would soar again. It was possible that the Little Skeleton could reach the legendary rank of the Void State!
"The Little Skeleton's bloodline awakening is a high-level one. I don't think the process will end anytime soon. I suggest you put the Little Skeleton back into your contract space so that no one will disturb you," Joanna said to Su Ping.
Su Ping nodded.
This was the first time for him to get into a bridal sedan chair. He wasn't familiar with the Little Skeleton's bloodline. Listening to someone as experienced as Joanna was the right thing to do.
A swirl appeared in Su Ping's mind and sucked the Little Skeleton in. The blood-red cocoon stood quietly in the contract space.
After Su Ping put away the Little Skeleton, Joanna dismissed the curious gods and went back to her own business.
Su Ping went back to cultivating. When he was almost done, he spent the rest of his time training the Dark Dragon Hound and the Inferno Dragon. When he had time, he would check on the customers' pets.
With Joanna's help, the customers' pets' training went smoothly. After all, none of the pets had gone through life-and-death training. Under the pressure of death, the pets' potentials were stimulated and they all improved rapidly. It was not an exaggeration to say that the pets had been reborn.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to leave the Demigod Burial.
Su Ping saw the blood-red cocoon that the Little Skeleton had turned into. It was still in the contract space. Almost a week had passed and the awakening was not over yet. Instead, the color of the cocoon was becoming brighter.
Luckily, Su Ping wasn't in a hurry. Joanna said that the longer it took, the better the effect would be. Su Ping was looking forward to the day when the Little Skeleton became a beast king.
After Joanna told her subordinates what to do, Su Ping took her back to the store.
The light in the store was dim. The sky was just beginning to brighten.
Su Ping looked at the time. It was still early, around six o 'clock in the morning.
He put the Dark Dragon Hound and the Inferno Dragon back into the nursing pens. Then, he went to freshen up, shave his beard, and check all the pets he had trained. After making sure that he hadn't missed anything, he opened the door and went home.
As soon as he opened the door, Su Ping saw a long line outside the store.
The sky had just brightened, but there was already a long line of people. There were at least a hundred of them.
Seeing Su Ping, everyone in the queue was stunned. It was rare for Su Ping to open the door so early!
However, just when everyone was pleasantly surprised, Su Ping turned around and closed the door again.
"I'm going to have breakfast first and call the staff over. We'll open at 7: 30," Su Ping said.
Everyone was speechless and could only watch as Su Ping turned around and left.
Su Ping wasn't used to not having Tang Ruyan to help him. He had to tell those people to wait for a while. After all, he usually opened the store after nine o 'clock. They must have gotten used to waiting …
On his way home, Su Ping suddenly noticed that there were seven or eight people with strong auras in the buildings across the street. There were people in each building.
Those auras were familiar.
Su Ping sensed that they were Qin Duhuang and the others he had met the day before. Apart from them, there were several titled battle pet warriors with them.
These guys, they're all living here?
Su Ping was surprised. He didn't expect to be neighbors with those people.
Su Ping didn't know what to say when he remembered what they had said to Mayor Xie Jinshui the day before. He didn't expect that they would be so fast. In less than a day, they had reached an agreement. It seemed that each of them had a building and they had already assigned the building closest to his store. Su Ping wondered if there was any coercion involved.
Su Ping felt that he had to ask Xie Jinshui about this.
After all, the people who lived across the street were his old neighbors. Some of them had told him that he would step in if there was any coercion. After all, it was all because of him.
"Mr. Su."
When Su Ping went out, a man came out from the noodle restaurant across the street. It was Qin Duhuang. Seeing that Su Ping had woken up so early, Qin Duhuang greeted him with a smile, "Good morning."
He was walking a bird in a birdcage.
"Good morning." Su Ping greeted him as well.
"Mr. Su, business is booming. So many people are waiting in line even before the store opens." Mu Beihai came out from another tailor's shop with a titled battle pet warrior from the Mu family. Sensing Su Ping's presence, Mu Beihai also stood up and greeted him casually.
"Thank you for your support." Su Ping smiled politely.
The family heads of the Liu family and the Ye family walked out as well. They greeted Su Ping with a smile, unwilling to be left behind.
Su Ping greeted them as he walked. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he left them alone. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong having breakfast in the living room.
"Why are you up so early?"
Tang Ruyan raised her head in surprise when she saw Su Ping. There was still some porridge on the corner of her mouth.
"Sir." Zhong Lingtong stood up at once and greeted Su Ping with respect.
Li Qingru had learned about the relationship between Zhong Lingtong and Su Ping. She told her to sit down and eat. Don't be so shy at home. Su Ping said, "You don't have to be so polite. Just kowtow to me."
Zhong Lingtong was speechless.
Li Qingru rolled her eyes at Su Ping. "It's so early in the morning. Tong, don't listen to his nonsense. Go and brush your teeth. Tang Ruyan and Tong bought breakfast for us. You have to be nice to them when you're in the store. Don't act all high and mighty just because of your status."
Su Ping blinked. How am I acting all high and mighty?
"I brushed my teeth in the store," Su Ping said. He sat down and began to eat.
"I wonder how your sister is doing at the Valiant Academy." Li Qingru mumbled to herself as she ate. She missed and worried about Su Lingyue since she wasn't having breakfast with her.
Su Ping also felt that without Su Lingyue around, his meals had become more plentiful. No one would compete with him for food. It was so … strange.
Su Ping shook his head and said, "Mom, don't worry. I have connections there. No one will bully her. Maybe when she comes back, you'll see a 100kg fatso."
Li Qingru rolled her eyes. "Don't talk about your sister like that."
Su Ping smiled. All of a sudden, he remembered about his father. "Mom, didn't you say that you would contact my dad and tell him not to float around? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Li Qingru was worried. "Your dad just wrote back. He said that he was on his way back. I think it's because it's a long way to go."
Su Ping frowned. He remembered that the underground train outside the Longjiang Base City had been attacked by beasts many times. He hoped that his father, whom he had never met before, was fine.
After breakfast, Su Ping called Xie Jinshui.
He asked about the stores that had been sold to Qin Duhuang. Su Ping was relieved to hear that the owners of those stores had received hundreds of times the original price.
"Sir, are the wild beasts outside the base city still active?" Su Ping changed the subject.
Xie Jinshui was surprised. He didn't expect that Su Ping would be concerned about that. "Yes. But I have sent out titled battle pet warriors to deal with them. Many have been dealt with."
Su Ping heaved a sigh of relief. "Then, is the underground train route from Jinghai City to here still open?"
His father used to work at sea and the Jinghai Base City was mainly for sea work. If his father were to come back, he would have to take the route from the Jinghai Base City.
"The Jinghai Base City?" Xie Jinshui was surprised. "It has always been open. It's just that the other routes have been interrupted for a few days because of the wild beasts' attacks. Why? Do you have any relatives or friends in the Jinghai Base City?"
Su Ping was relieved and said, "That's good. Sorry to bother you."
"You're welcome."
Xie Jinshui had some guesses. He was going to send someone to pay attention to the Jinghai Base City.
Su Ping hung up. He was about to go back to his store when his phone rang again.
Su Ping looked at the number. It was Qin Shuhai.
"Mr. Su, I finally got in touch with you." Qin Shuhai's voice sounded pleasantly surprised as soon as the call connected.
Su Ping was surprised that Qin Shuhai would call him. "What is it?"
"Mr. Su, you are so forgetful. Didn't I tell you about the Supremacy League? If you want to participate, you can come over now. The Supremacy League has already started. But since you are a titled battle pet warrior, you can take part in the official matches. I tried to call you but I couldn't reach you. I heard from my family head that you weren't in the Longjiang Base City. My number is only for inter-city communication."
Qin Shuhai explained quickly.
Supremacy League? Su Ping remembered what Qin Shuhai had told him. The Talent Stone was one of the treasures that could be used to win the Supremacy League.
The Talent Stone had a chance to inspire talents. It was like the Enlightening Guide. Su Ping wondered how effective the Talent Stone would be.
"I went to the Holy Light Base City." Su Ping asked, "Where is the venue of the Supremacy League?"
"The Holy Light Base City?" Qin Shuhai understood. No wonder he couldn't get in touch with Su Ping. But at the same time, he wondered why Su Ping had gone to the Holy Light Base City. That was the holy land for trainers.
Was Su Ping preparing for the Supremacy League? Was he there to train his pets?
Qin Shuhai didn't dare to ask about Su Ping's personal matters. "The Supremacy League will be held in a Class A base city, the Aurora Base City."
"Okay. I'll be there later. Thank you," Su Ping said.
Su Ping hung up. He was interested in the Talent Stone. After all, it wasn't easy to get the Enlightening Guide in the system store. It was all about luck.
"Let's go. We'll go back and open the store when we're full." Su Ping stood up and said to Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong.
Both of them heard Su Ping's call. Tang Ruyan was surprised. "You're going to the Supremacy League?"
"Yes. I'm going to get an award," Su Ping said.
Tang Ruyan was speechless. Su Ping sounded as if he would definitely win the championship.
