"…"
Tang Ruyan stared at Su Ping in a daze. She felt bitter. Back then, Su Ping had kidnapped her like this. However, after spending some time with him, she could tell that Su Ping was a nice guy with a sharp tongue.
"Don't do this." Tang Ruyan lowered her head. "I'm not worth it. I have to go this time!"
"Sure, but don't throw away your life," Su Ping said coldly, "Come back and look after the store after you're done here."
Tang Ruyan heaved a sigh of relief. "If I can survive … I will come back."
"You won't die as long as you don't have a death wish." Su Ping waved his hand. "I will ask my pet to go back with you. We'll talk about this later. Now, stand on your last shift of the day."
Tang Ruyan's eyes glowed.
Su Ping wanted to lend his pet to her?
She knew that Su Ping's pet was strong, at least at the Beast King level. If she could bring a Beast King back, it would be a great help to the Tang family!
"Thank you …"
She gazed at Su Ping and said in a low voice.
Su Ping waved his hand and told her to go back.
Tang Ruyan didn't say anything else. She went back to her post.
The people around them had heard their conversation. They stared at Tang Ruyan in surprise.
If they were not mistaken, the Tang family the girl mentioned was the Tang family, one of the four major families.
Some of the more informed ones had figured out the whole story. They couldn't hide their astonishment. They didn't know that this girl from the Tang family was working for that legendary battle pet warrior who had come out of nowhere. Now that she had gained the favor of that legendary battle pet warrior, she was going to borrow his pet. The forces that were going against the Tang family were going to be in trouble!
Soon, Su Ping heard the system saying that the pet storage was full.
The nursing pens were almost full as well.
Su Ping put down his pen and said to the people in the line, "All seats are taken. Please come back next time."
Su Ping's words startled the people behind him. They didn't know that the store was full.
In other stores, customers would be more than happy to have a steady stream of customers.
While they were surprised, they remembered that Su Ping was at the legendary battle pet warrior rank. Running a store was not Su Ping's main business. It was just a hobby. As for making money? Legendary battle pet warriors didn't lack money.
. Su Ping's words of regret, the rest of them left.
After all the customers were gone, Su Ping asked Tang Ruyan, the old man and the young girl to come over. "You were the one who told me about the Tang family, right? Can you tell me in detail what happened and how long ago?"
Xia Yumeng and the old man at the titled rank were nervous. They were trembling with fear in front of Su Ping. Xia Yumeng plucked up her courage and said, "Sir, I heard that the Situ family and the Wang family are in cahoots. A few days ago, the Situ family and the Wang family started to suppress the Tang family. I heard from some professionals that the Situ family and the Wang family are serious. I think they will attack the Tang family in a few days."
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. "The Situ family and the Wang family? So, the four major families are going all out against each other. What is the reason for their collusion? "
Xia Yumeng answered carefully, "I think it's because the family head of the Tang family was injured while cultivating."
Su Ping looked at Tang Ruyan and saw the complicated look in her eyes. He shook his head and said, "The Tang family is one of the four major families. Just the injury of the family head is not enough to make the other two major families work together to attack the Tang family. The two major families have been living in harmony for a long time. There must be another reason why they are attacking the Tang family. In a battle between two major families, even if the family head of the Tang family were to fall, someone else would take over the command. As for combat strength, the family head of the Tang family is at the peak of the titled rank at best. He is not the reason for the war."
Xia Yumeng was stunned, her little face slightly pale, and said, "Junior, junior does not dare to deceive senior, the news junior heard is like this …"
The old man at the titled rank was frightened as well. "Sir, our young lady and Miss Ruyan are close friends. We would never lie to her. I can guarantee it with my title!"
Su Ping waved his hand. "Don't worry. I'm not saying that you lied to her. I'm just saying that there must be another reason. It's normal that you don't know. Anyways, if they really want to attack the Tang family, they won't do it for fun. They must be confident that they can win."
Tang Ruyan was still in a daze. Su Ping's analysis brought her back to her senses. She was still frightened.
The Tang family had legendary treasures that could even defeat beast kings!
The Situ family and the Wang family must have known that. After all, they had been dealing with each other for years.
That could only mean that the Situ family had something that could stop the Tang family's legendary treasures and that they had a reason to nibble away at the Tang family!
Tang Ruyan's heart sank.
She looked at Su Ping. She wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
If she could ask Su Ping to help, then Su Ping would be able to deter the Situ family and the Wang family. No matter how long they had been planning, they would have to give up when they saw a legendary battle pet warrior!
But …
Su Ping was a legendary battle pet warrior!
How could she ask a legendary battle pet warrior to help her and the Tang family?
The Tang family had attacked Su Ping's store on a large scale. Speaking of which, the Tang family and Su Ping had some grudges. Although the Tang family had offered a treasure as an apology, who knew if Su Ping had let go of that grudge?
"What's the situation with the Tang family?" Su Ping asked again.
Xia Yumeng answered with respect, "The Yedou Base City, where the Tang family is located, has entered a state of readiness for war. All trades and transportation with the outside world are being checked. But the Situ family and the Wang family haven't done anything yet. I don't know when the war will break out. But the Tang family has called all the Tang family members back home."
Tang Ruyan turned pale. She kept her head low and didn't let it show on her face.
Su Ping looked at her. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to see Tang Ruyan go back. The Tang family didn't consider her a part of the Tang family. But he had tried to persuade her but to no avail. He thought it would be better for her to go back and put an end to everything.
"If they really want to attack, it will be soon."
Su Ping thought for a moment and said to the old man and the young girl, "Thank you for the information. You can go now."
The old man knew that Su Ping was asking them to leave. He said a few words of modesty and left with his young lady. He didn't want to stay in front of Su Ping for too long.
When only Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong were left in the store, Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan, "I'll let Little White go with you. At the very least, it can keep you alive."
"Little White?"
Tang Ruyan was confused.
Su Ping summoned the Little Skeleton. Little White was the name he had just given the Little Skeleton.
He had thought that the Inferno Dragon would be enough to go with her. The Inferno Dragon would be a threat to the four ancient families. However, since the two ancient families were working together, Su Ping was worried that they would have other plans. The Inferno Dragon was powerful but Little White was safer. After all, he wasn't with her this time.
As for the Little Skeleton, not even the Otherworld Heavenly King could kill it. The Little Skeleton's bloodline ability had been tested in the Realm of Purple-blood Dragons. Not even the purple-blood dragons at the Fate State could kill the Little Skeleton!
Tang Ruyan was pleasantly surprised to see the Little Skeleton.
She knew that among all of Su Ping's pets, the Little Skeleton was the most powerful one, even though it looked the least impressive!
"Thank you!" She couldn't help but say.
Su Ping had done her a great favor. She didn't know what to say.
She couldn't even say thank you. She had to keep it in mind.
"Little guy, stay with this lady and take care of her. Don't let her die." Su Ping patted the Little Skeleton's smooth skull.
Tang Ruyan: "???"
The Little Skeleton stared at him, trying to digest his words. After a few seconds, the Little Skeleton nodded. It seemed that the Little Skeleton was a little slow.
Su Ping had gotten used to it. While the Little Skeleton was slow in communicating, it was the keenest when it came to fighting. Of all his pets, the Little Skeleton was the most aggressive!
"Kill anyone who tries to hurt her," Su Ping said.
The Little Skeleton nodded.
Su Ping smiled. He looked at Tang Ruyan again. All of a sudden, he remembered the herbs that the Zhong family had given him. He had forgotten to use them. He had used the blood of the King of Hell and some rare herbs from the Dragon Realm to reach the ninth rank. Those herbs were not very effective for him. They were only suitable for people at the seventh or eighth rank.
"Your rank is too low. The average titled battle pet warriors can kill you from a distance. Not even Frosty can protect you all the time. I have some herbs here. Use them and try to reach the eighth rank," Su Ping said. He took out the herbs that the Zhong family had given him.
Tang Ruyan was speechless. She had gotten used to Su Ping's sharp tongue. She had mixed feelings when she thought of her current rank. She used to be proud of her rank. After all, she was not weak among her peers. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a genius.
However, after meeting a freak like Su Ping and seeing the titled battle pet warriors and even the legendary battle pet warriors in Su Ping's store, Tang Ruyan began to feel that the seventh rank was … not something to be proud of.
"Will my cultivation be delayed? What if by the time I get back, the Tang family will have …" Tang Ruyan was worried.
Su Ping said grumpily, "Don't think too much. Didn't your friend say that the war with the Tang family hasn't started yet? It's a war between big families. Even if it has started, it won't end so soon. If you're in a hurry, go cultivate."
With that said, he threw the herbs to her.
Tang Ruyan caught them. After a moment of hesitation, she decided that Su Ping was right.
Tang Ruyan went to the test room with the herbs. Su Ping told Zhong Lingtong to get him a register so that he could sort out the pets he had received that day.
Su Ping couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the energy points in the store.
He had made 68 million energy points that day.
All the pets that had come for training were advanced pets and most of them had chosen professional training!
Counting the energy points he had before, he had 90 million energy points!
He would reach a hundred million with another ten million!
One hundred million energy points would mean ten billion in income!
Su Ping didn't dare to think about it. That being said, the pets registered that day were enough for him to train for a long time. That was why he didn't go with Tang Ruyan to the Tang family in person.
For one thing, he didn't like the Tang family. For another, he was too busy.
It was enough to have the Little Skeleton following him.
At the very least, it could keep Tang Ruyan safe.
As for whether the Tang family would be destroyed or not, Su Ping didn't care.
"Upgrade the store!"
Su Ping said to himself at once.
Upgrading the store to the third level required ten million energy points.
The store to the fourth level required one billion energy points!
A hundred times improvement!
"Checking … the first condition has been met. The second condition has been met. The third condition has been met …
"Next, the store will be upgraded.
"The system will be under maintenance. The upgrade will take 24 hours.
"During the upgrade process, the cultivation sites will only be open from the beginning to the advanced level. The top-level cultivation sites will be closed.
"Energy points deducted …
"The system store is being upgraded …"
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and asked in his mind, "System, you're doing maintenance? Aren't you a top-level retarded … artificial intelligence? "
"Maintenance means rest. I'm tired of supervising a useless host like you all the time," the system retorted coldly.
Su Ping was surprised. The system had learned to scold people?
Where did it learn that from?
