"It's already so late. Why hasn't the Ryan family arrived yet?"
"It's been so long. They could've arrived by spaceship, couldn't they?"
"What's going on? Is Lord Ryan not on this planet?"
"Do you think the Ryan family is going to settle the matter privately?"
"Settle the matter privately? How is that possible? Unless he's a top Star State expert, the Ryan family wouldn't just let him go after humiliating them like that! "
The onlookers waiting on both sides of the street became more and more anxious. They whispered to each other.
It was already late at night, yet the Ryan family still hadn't shown up. Many people thought that they wouldn't be able to watch the battle that night.
Just as I expected, the family is going to settle the matter, or they haven't found out who's behind that guy …
On the second floor of the assessment shop — Cleo looked at the Pixie Pet Store across the street, which was completely quiet. She was even more certain of her guess.
If they were going to attack, they would've already done so.
They had to be wary if they hadn't attacked yet. It meant that neither Su Ping nor the force behind him dared to act recklessly!
This shop has been here for years. I don't remember it at all. He doesn't seem to be the owner. Was it suddenly transferred? That's strange.
Cleo tried to recall the past, only to find that her memories were fuzzy. She remembered that the shop had been on the street for years, but it had kept a low profile, so she didn't have much of an impression of it.
…
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
At that moment, a group of city guards suddenly appeared on the street. They were all Ocean State battle pet warriors; they were all wearing the same silver armor and arriving on the street.
"This place has been sealed. The road needs to be repaired. Everybody, please leave immediately!"
One of the silver-armored men, who was the leader, shouted softly.
He was a Void State warrior. His voice echoed across the street, so that everybody could hear him clearly.
The mayor's office had sent city guards, which surprised everybody. They immediately realized that the Ryan family was doing it. Were they planning to clear the place and start a war?
Many people were excited and regretful at the thought of that.
They had waited so long for a good show, but they were told that they couldn't watch it because they didn't have tickets?
Some people couldn't help but grumble in a low voice. There were also some who directly revealed their thoughts in their hearts.
However, even though they complained, many of them still left obediently. Nobody dared to challenge the Ryans, who were the absolute rulers of Rhea.
The laws of the entire planet, apart from the basic federal laws, also included the laws of the Ryan family, which had to be obeyed.
Every planet with a Lord had its own planetary laws, which were added by the Lord. If a planet was attached to a galaxy, it had to abide by the laws and regulations of that galaxy's Lord. Of course, these laws could not conflict with the Federation's laws, or they would be nullified.
"Are they preparing to fight? It doesn't seem like it."
On the second floor, Cleo slightly frowned when she saw that. She didn't think that they were here to clear the place for a battle.
She knew the Ryan family's way of doing things. If a war were to break out, they would arrive in the most domineering way, instead of clearing the place. Instead, they would use that as an excuse to show how powerful the Ryan family was.
"Looks like the family is planning to settle this privately," Lily said in a low voice.
She looked like a cute little girl, but she was very quick-witted.
Cleo nodded slightly.
Very soon, fewer and fewer people were on the street; all of them had left.
Only a long line of people remained outside of Su Ping's shop.
The captain of the city guards in the lead frowned when he saw them, but to their surprise, he didn't ask them to leave.
"You must be an honorable guest of the Laiyefa family. Welcome to Rhea."
The captain of the city guards blinked and reached Mia, who was at the front of the line. His cold and hard face was melted, replaced by a polite and flattering smile.
One of the laws of Rhea was that the members of the Laiyefa family had to be received with the highest etiquette as if they were direct descendants of the Ryan family!
After all, Rhea was a subordinate of the Laiyefa family and belonged to Zeruprun, which was under the control of the Laiyefa family. They had no choice but to flatter the family members of their boss.
Mia nodded casually and asked, "Yes. My presence won't affect your work on the road, will it?"
She had already learned the identities of the Star State experts from the whispers around her. The conflict between the Ryan family and Su Ping made her rather uncomfortable.
She didn't like the Ryan family in the first place, because Layne was like a dog skin plaster; she didn't like him at all.
Unfortunately, she wasn't a direct descendant of the Laiyefa family. Her mother was a concubine, and she didn't have much of a background. Otherwise, she could have easily made the Ryan family give up on taking revenge on Su Ping's shop.
However, she could only watch at the moment. Also, her identity in the Laiyefa family was rather sensitive. She didn't dare to get involved in other matters before she was fully fledged, nor did she dare to act in the name of the Laiyefa family. Not only would she be in trouble if she was targeted, but her mother and her friends in the family would also be implicated.
Everybody had their own difficulties. Outsiders didn't know that, but nobody dared to piss her off as long as they knew that she was a member of the Laiyefa family.
"Not at all, not at all," said the captain of the city guards quickly, feeling rather flattered.
The others at the back of the group stared at the girl in astonishment. Some of them already knew her identity while others didn't. However, at this moment, everyone knew that the girl from the Laiyefa family was like a heavenly daughter from a distant kingdom to them!
Such a girl was right in front of them.
The captain of the city guards greeted her and didn't disturb her any further. Once the street was cleared, he led the city guards to stand on both sides of the road. Soon after, several men appeared out of nowhere; they had stepped out of the secondary space and teleported there.
There were three of them in total; all of them were in the Fate State.
"This is the shop."
"My senses can't penetrate it. I'm using the ancient Divine Perception Technique."
"Don't cause any trouble. Our family has sent us here to discuss a private matter."
The three of them talked to each other telepathically while standing in midair.
Everybody gasped when they saw the old man in the middle. He was the mayor of Woffett City!
The mayor had come in person!
Was he going to cause trouble for the shop? However, despite his high position, the mayor was nothing in front of a Star State expert!
At this moment, the three people in the air, led by the elder in the middle, first came to the front of the group to greet Mia. After the greetings, they saw the closed door of the shop. The old city lord signaled with his eyes for the captain of the city guards to knock on the door.
The captain of the city guards instantly stepped forward and knocked on the door, but nothing happened.
He shouted a few more times, and the door of the shop suddenly opened with a swoosh. What appeared in front of everyone was a beautiful girl with long golden hair, snow-white skin, and pure and holy.
Next to the girl was a red-haired young man. He was exactly Garland, the Star State expert who had caused a scene earlier.
"Roger Garland!" The mayor's expression changed slightly when he saw the young man.
The others, however, were attracted by Joanna. Those who had never been to Su Ping's shop were shocked by Joanna's beauty.
"Mom, I'm in love."
"She's really so beautiful … I can get pregnant for her!"
"I didn't know such a person existed in the mortal world. She's so beautiful. Is she a goddess?"
The crowd exclaimed in shock; many of them were fascinated by her beauty.
Garland looked at the old mayor outside and frowned. "O 'Neil didn't come?"
The old City Lord regained his senses and his expression changed slightly. He hurriedly transmitted his voice, "Master Consecrator, the Patriarch knows that you are being held captive by the other party. He is worried that you will be hurt, so he plans to settle this matter privately.
Garland raised his eyebrows. Although he knew that it wasn't necessarily true, he still felt warm. His expression softened, and he said telepathically, "That's the right choice.
"That's the right choice. I was worried that he would attack us. Go back and tell him not to be rash. There's more than one Star State expert in this shop. The beautiful woman in front of you is also in the Star State, and even stronger than him. She might even be at the peak of the Star State …"
"The peak of the Star State?"
The mayor's pupils contracted, and he almost cried out in shock.
Was this for real?
Those at the peak of the Star State were horrifying beings who could become lords of tier-1 planets. Even O 'Neil, the lord of the Ryan family, had to be polite to them.
"What are you arguing about?"
At that moment, Joanna spoke and coldly looked at the captain of the city guards who had knocked on the door.
The City Guard Captain was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, the City Lord beside him reacted and shouted angrily, "Who allowed you to knock on the door? Quickly kneel down and apologize!"
The captain: "???"
