There were also some low-rank dragon cultivation sites.
Realm of Blazing Dragons (middle-rank cultivation site)
Realm of Eight-winged Sea Dragons (middle-rank cultivation site)
Realm of Purple-blood Dragons (middle-rank cultivation site)
…
Su Ping browsed through many dragon realms with different names. He was dazzled. He asked the system, "There are so many dragon realms. Which one is the dragon origin I'm looking for?"
The system answered, "Every dragon realm has its own dragon origin. Dragons are one of the most ancient species and there are 4,829 major branches. Your Inferno Dragon is a secondary branch and it doesn't have a dragon realm of its own. The Inferno Dragon mainly lives in the Realm of Purple-blood Dragons, which is a middle-rank cultivation site."
Su Ping was surprised. He had seen the Realm of Purple-blood Dragons just then.
"So, if I go to the Realm of Purple-blood Dragons and find the dragon origin, I can revive the Inferno Dragon?"
"That's right."
Su Ping opened the Realm of Purple-blood Dragons and checked the introduction.
The most powerful warriors there were at the Star Rank!
Most of them were at the legendary rank, but many of them were at the Void State or the Fate State.
Su Ping felt pressured. That being said, it was not surprising that a middle-rank cultivation site would have such powerful warriors. For example, the Demigod Burial was an advanced cultivation site and there were many Star Rank warriors there. There were even Superior Star Rank warriors.
Su Ping was ready to enter the cultivation site without any hesitation.
"I suggest you save up one million energy points before you go in," the system reminded him.
Su Ping was surprised. Only then did he remember that he would have to consume energy to enter the cultivation sites. It was his fault for being too impatient. He opened the store's interface and was rendered speechless.
He had almost used up all his energy points when he was dealing with the Otherworld Heavenly King. He only had a few hundred thousand energy points left. That was more than enough for him to pay for the entrance fee. However, the entrance fee was the least of his expenses. Without the system's reward for unlimited revivals, revivals were the most energy-consuming.
"How long can the Soul Nurturer nurture the Inferno Dragon?" Su Ping asked in his mind.
"Thirty days."
Su Ping was slightly startled, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. With such a long time, he could indeed take a few days off to prepare. After all, this was the Dragon World. Without a spy like Joanna, it was still a very dangerous place.
Su Ping put away the list and left the pet room.
Tang Ruyan was the only one left in the store. She was surprised to see Su Ping coming out. "Aren't you busy?"
Su Ping couldn't explain and asked, "Where's Little Zhong?"
"Go tell your parents that you're back."
"Oh, get ready. We'll open for business later," Su Ping said.
Tang Ruyan was surprised to see that Su Ping was still in the mood for business. She was relieved. It seemed that Su Ping was in a good mood.
Tang Ruyan nodded. "I'll go and get ready. But business hasn't been good for a couple of days. You know, we just went through a strike. Many people are dealing with family affairs …" She darted a look at Su Ping.
Su Ping nodded.
Su Ping left the store and went home. He wanted to see his father whom he had never met.
Su Ping ran into Zhong Lingtong as soon as he arrived at the door. Zhong Lingtong was just as surprised to see Su Ping. Su Ping had said that he was busy and didn't even have time to say hello to his parents. She didn't expect that he would be there.
"Sir?"
"I'm fine. Go play in the mud."
"Okay … What?"
Su Ping left Zhong Lingtong, who was still in a daze, and went home.
Su Ping had already sensed that there was a strange presence in the house. He heard a voice coming from the living room. He walked over slowly. A middle-aged man with a beard was sitting at the table in the living room. His face was weather-beaten and his skin was dark. He must have been under the sun for a long time.
Su Ping heard from his mother that his father used to go out to sea to earn money. Su Ping could smell the faint smell of the sea on the man.
In this day and age, being a sailor meant risking one's life.
"Ah, you're back."
Li Qingru happened to be facing the door. She was surprised to see Su Ping there. However, when she saw the blood on Su Ping's clothes, the look on her face changed. She dropped the dough she was kneading on the table. She dashed over and said in a panic, "You, how did you get hurt so badly? Are you okay? I, I, I, I will get you a healer."
She was so anxious that she stuttered and her mind went blank.
Hearing her words, the middle-aged man sitting at the table turned around. When he saw Su Ping, he was startled and rushed over.
"Ping 'er, are you okay?" He reached out and pressed on Su Ping's shoulder.
Soon, he seemed to be startled. He sighed in relief and said, "Hurry up and sit down. Take off your clothes. What happened to you?"
Su Ping let him pull him to the table. He had imagined the first time he would meet his father, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
Seeing the anxiety and nervousness on his father's face, he was familiar with the feeling of being connected by blood.
"I'm fine." Su Ping let them take off his clothes. He didn't stop them. It was a good chance for them to see if he had any wounds.
Sure enough, when Li Qingru saw that there were no wounds on Su Ping's body, she was obviously stunned. She also recovered from her panic and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with the blood? Is it yours?"
Su Ping wanted to say that it was his, but it wasn't an ordinary injury.
He didn't explain. There were many things in this world that couldn't be explained.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Su Ping said. At the same time, he looked at the dough on the table and diverted his mother's attention. He said, "Are we eating dough tonight?"
"How can we eat dough? Your father is back. We're going to eat dumplings tonight."
"Dumplings are good. Are they filled with chives?"
"Of course."
Su Ping smiled.
Good, the topic changed.
However, in front of him, a pair of eyes were staring at him. It was his father.
This pair of eyes was deep and reserved. They were carefully sizing up Su Ping. There was an indescribable look in his eyes. There was nostalgia, admiration, pride, and guilt.
There were all kinds of complicated emotions.
"I heard about you from your mother." Su Yuanshan took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect so many things to happen while I was away. You are indeed my son. You are … good!"
Su Ping smiled. "It's your fault for not being at home. As the only male in the family, I naturally have to stand up for you."
Su Yuanshan looked at him and patted the back of his hand. He didn't say anything else.
Some things didn't need to be said. It was clear enough.
"Let's go. Let your mother make the dumplings. We'll go upstairs and have a chat." Su Yuanshan said.
Li Qingru said unhappily, "What can't you say here? You have to do it behind my back."
"This is between men. Women shouldn't pry." Su Yuanshan snorted.
Li Qingru rolled her eyes. "Don't try to be lazy. You will chop the meat later."
"Of course," Su Yuanshan said in a domineering tone and led Su Ping upstairs.
Su Yuanshan went to Su Ping's room and looked around. He seemed to be checking out his son's room. When he saw some hot posters on the wall, Su Yuanshan cleared his throat and said, "Son, at your age, you're full of vigor. It's not good for you to look at those."
Su Ping didn't know what to say. I'm still full of vigor. I didn't recover from the battle with the Otherworld Heavenly King and I almost died of exhaustion at the Tower.
"I almost lost sight of the Longjiang Base City when I came back." Su Yuanshan sat down at the desk and heaved a sigh. He gazed at Su Ping and said, "I heard that you're at the legendary rank now. The Longjiang Base City was able to survive because you defeated the most powerful beast king. You are the hero of the Longjiang Base City."
"Someone has to step up in the face of disaster. I was forced to do this." Su Ping sighed and sat down on his bed.
Su Yuanshan looked at him for a moment and smiled. "When I go out in the future, I can tell my brothers that my son is the hero who saved the Longjiang Base City. Ha, ha, they will be stunned …"
