Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 1309 Familiar Friends

Behind this ancient door, a towering yet indistinct shadow slowly emerges.

Its silhouette stands high above like a deity, making this place seem like the center of the universe, enveloped by an indescribable aura.

"In such a small universe?"

A whisper resounded, and the surrounding void trembled violently. The mere tremor of the voice caused signs of collapse and cracking in the surrounding universe.

In the turbulent spacetime, a figure entirely in black appeared and knelt before the door.

"……knew."

The figure inside the door seemed to receive the message and whispered, "Continue to investigate, but don't alert them."

After speaking, his figure gradually disappeared, and at the same time, the door also gradually vanished.

Just then, the surrounding trembling universe underwent a strange change, rapidly twisting and contorting. From the shattered cracks emerged ferocious arms and heads, as if rising from the deep sea, roaring as they charged toward the dark figure kneeling before the door.

The dark figure snorted coldly, its entire body transforming into a streak of black light before vanishing instantly.

The countless grotesque arms and heads that had emerged around them slumped down after losing their target, but the broken cracks continued to writhe slowly, as if they were about to merge.

……

Divine Court.

The dazzling divine court was like a colossal star, its blazing gold illuminating a region spanning several light-years.

At the border teleportation points of the Divine Court, aircraft carriers slowly emerged from the star teleportation array, carrying countless warriors and ordinary residents.

At this moment, some wealthy individuals with substantial assets and net worth stood on the observation deck atop the aircraft carrier, observing the Golden Divine Court before them through the transparent protective shield.

There are twelve star sectors in the universe, but countless people go through their entire lives without ever setting foot in any of them.

Let alone crossing star sectors, even crossing star systems is extremely rare. Only those with abundant wealth and boundless energy can accomplish this.

Meanwhile, ordinary civilians huddled in the cabins beneath the aircraft carrier, their small windows crowded with faces of all sizes, their bewildered, lost, and confused eyes surveying this unfamiliar place.

Upon receiving the message from above, they realized that this might be where they would live from now on, and that they would live here for a very long time.

And this is also the last pure land in the universe.

When these supreme beings migrated here, the God Venerable and the Crimson Fire Supreme and others also got busy, leading them to set up camp in the previously planned area.

The defensive line around the Divine Court had been tightened to the core of the Golden Star Region, an area of ​​only tens of light-years. Now, with the arrival of people from various star regions of the universe, it was immediately packed with people.

The God and the Crimson Fire Supreme created many planets and small star systems in advance to house these migrating residents.

Throughout the entire Divine Court, from top to bottom, a flurry of activity took place. In the highest meeting room of the Divine Court, all the supreme beings were present, marking their long-awaited meeting in reality.

"Your Majesty, why did you choose to command the capital on such a small planet?"

Upon arriving here, a Supreme Being raised a question, but in a relaxed tone, not an interrogation. After all, the power of the Divine Lord's side was too great, and these Supreme Beings were unwilling to have any further conflict with the Divine Lord.

You've already entered someone else's territory, and you're still arguing with the owner? Isn't that just brainless?

"Little Su likes to stay on this planet, so this is the capital of the Divine Court," the God replied with a smile, without any attempt to hide his feelings.

Everyone was stunned, not expecting this to be the reason. They had thought that this planet was special or that it was deliberately chosen to hide, but it turned out that it was just because the young man liked this place.

"The Divine Lord truly favors that Mr. Su." One of the Supreme Beings chuckled awkwardly, and changed how he addressed Su Ping. Since Su Ping did not yet have a title, they could only address him by his name.

"We've come from afar and would like to pay our respects to Mr. Su. Will he be attending the meeting today?" one of the Supremes asked, clearly wanting to see in person just how capable this arrogant fellow who suddenly appeared out of nowhere really was.

The deity saw through their thoughts and did not refuse, saying, "Xiao Su is usually very busy. I will convey your thoughts. If he has time, he should come over."

"What is he busy with?" a supreme being asked.

The deity glanced at the other party and said, "Of course, I'm busy cultivating. A genius can't transform into a butterfly just by having talent."

"Alright, enough of the small talk. Now that everyone's here, let's discuss the handover and border defense arrangements," Crimson Fire Supreme interrupted the questions, speaking with some impatience.

He had a fiery temper, and seeing these people dawdling around made him quite angry.

"What's your hurry?" Crimson Shadow Supreme glared at him. The two were old rivals and couldn't stand each other. Although he had submitted to the Divine Court, he still didn't give Crimson Fire Supreme a friendly look.

Crimson Fire Supreme's eyes narrowed, and he looked at him coldly.

Crimson Shadow Supreme raised an eyebrow slightly, but ultimately turned his gaze away. Now it was Crimson Fire's home turf, and he was unwilling to really cause a conflict, after all, behind Crimson Fire was the monster who had killed Black Desolate Supreme from afar.

The deity waved his hand and said, "Now that everyone is here, let your respective star sector advisors come in and listen in. We also need to hear their opinions and ideas on the deployment of the defense line."

"The deity is right."

The other supreme beings nodded, and seeing that the God-Emperor was not acting dictatorially, their faces showed more smiles.

As the meeting proceeded, decisions were finalized and communicated from the meeting room, and the entire Divine Court began to operate and implement them.

Meanwhile, outside the space station on the planet Raya, a spaceship passed the space station's detection and sped down over a continent on Raya.

"I never imagined it would be so difficult to get in here now." A group of figures stepped out of the spaceship, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar planet before them, and clicked their tongues in amazement.

One of them quipped, "The legal owner of this planet almost couldn't enter his own planet. This must be the first time in the Federation that this has happened."

"Fortunately, we had the help of the Alliance Leader's father. Only with the intervention of the God-Consecrating One could we obtain temporary passes. The conditions were quite harsh," another person remarked.

"Who can argue with that? I heard on the news that this is now the capital of our Divine Court, and its strictness is comparable to the former royal palace of the Divine Court!"

"Raine, didn't you say you wanted to ask Boss Su to take this planet back? Let's go now," the other person joked.

"Get lost!"

A burly middle-aged man shoved the other man aside with annoyance. He was the patriarch of the Rein family, the former ruling family of Planet Rea, and an ally of Su Ping's Star Alliance.

Back then, Su Ping propelled this planet across the universe, and he never had a chance to return. Later, Su Ping rose to fame through the Cosmic Genius Battle, climbing the ranks to become so powerful that he dared not mention it again. After all, what was a planet compared to Su Ping's disciple, who could casually give him an entire star system?

Now, Su Ping's status is different from before. He has long regarded this planet as Su Ping's creation and has no more thoughts about it.

Moreover, this is his hometown, and he feels a sense of pride in how prosperous Suping has become.

He has already gained tremendous benefits simply from his relationship with Su Ping. Many small and medium-sized forces in the universe have come to their Star Alliance members, hoping to use their connection with Su Ping to gain huge benefits for them.

"Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Su is no longer the junior he used to be. I heard from insiders in the Conferred God Circle that Mr. Su has killed a Supreme Being. I heard that he is now the new Supreme Being, but he has not yet been officially conferred the title. Due to the turmoil in the universe, the conferment ceremony has been postponed. After all, the birth of a Supreme Being is a grand ceremony that is open to the entire universe. We don't have the energy to hold it now."

A middle-aged man with a powerful aura and a tall, upright figure spoke from the crowd.

"Slay the Supreme Being..."

Although everyone had heard about Su Ping's deeds on the spaceship, they still felt a shock and excitement every time they heard those four words, and their hearts couldn't help but beat faster.

"I wonder if he still has time to see us now." One member sighed, but there was no jealousy or disappointment in his words. Su Ping's achievements were already too far beyond their reach, and they could only look up to him.

"He's about to join the army, let's go see him first," a girl interrupted the group's discussion.

"I'll listen to Miss Shen'er."

"Let's go take a look first."

Everyone agreed, and they immediately piloted their small spaceship, connected to the planet's space station, and sped off to the city of Wofite.

Looking at the city of Wofit today, Rein on the spaceship couldn't help but rub his eyes. The changes here were too great, it was unrecognizable. Towering buildings had sprung up, the city area had expanded dozens of times, and other cities on the periphery had been merged into a super metropolis.

"So many powerful auras." Xingyue Shen'er's senses were sharp, and her expression was solemn. She could feel the same powerful aura of a god within this city as her father.

"Why does it feel like everyone here is a pet master?" The others felt the same way, as they didn't seem to see many ordinary people.

"I estimate that the ordinary people have all been evacuated. The temptation for ordinary people is too great if some powerful people just offer money," said Raine.

Everyone understood this principle. The strong attract the strong to gather, and there was no benefit for ordinary people to stay here. They might as well take the money and move to another place where they could live a more comfortable life.

Soon, the group found the most prosperous street in the center of the city.

At that moment, a warning came from the air station inside the spaceship, prohibiting navigation in the airspace within the inner city of Wofit.

Everyone immediately piloted their spaceships to the outside of the city, and then took vehicles to the inner city. It took them half a day to finally arrive at a crowded pet shop.

"This is it."

"There's a queue?"

"nonsense!"

"We're not here to breed pets, we're just visiting an old friend. We shouldn't need to wait in line. Let's go tell the staff at the door."

Soon, the crowd squeezed forward from the side. Xingyue Shen'er, who was at the head, looked left and right, walked up the steps, ignored the dissatisfied gazes around her, and asked the woman at the door, "Is this Su Ping's shop? We are his friends."

"friend?"

Tang Ruyan looked at the girl in front of her and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Where did Su Ping get his friends? And even if he does, why are they such cute girls?"

"Achoo!"

Inside the shop, Su Ping, who had just returned from the world of cultivation, couldn't help but sneeze. He rubbed his nose, wondering who was missing him.

"We're just here to take a quick look at him and say hello," Xingyue Shen'er explained at the door.

"Then you all wait here. When he comes back, I'll ask him for you." Tang Ruyan glanced at the group of people behind the girl. They didn't seem to be lying. At this point, no one should dare to lie here. Judging from their cultivation levels, they didn't seem to have that much courage.

Thank you.

At this moment, Tang Ruyan sensed Su Ping's presence inside the shop. She immediately gave a brief explanation to the people in front of her and then entered the shop.

Upon seeing Su Ping, she relayed the message and rolled her eyes at him.

"friend?"

Su Ping was somewhat surprised. His thoughts spread out and he immediately saw the crowd at the door. He was a little dazed. It was actually these guys.

Time seemed to have passed for a long time, but Su Ping noticed that they hadn't changed much at all. He immediately went to the shop entrance and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"

When they saw Su Ping walk out of the store, everyone was shocked and felt like they didn't recognize him.

"So you really are here." Xingyue Shen'er stood there for a moment, not knowing what to say, so she said something pointless.

"Come in, all of you," Su Ping said, inviting them inside.

As everyone followed Su Ping inside, they felt flattered and overwhelmed.

They had imagined many scenarios of their meeting, but when they met again, they found that many of the lines they had originally planned were no longer appropriate to say.

"Is this the deterrent effect of slaying a supreme being?"

The group murmured to themselves, cautiously observing Su Ping. Earlier, when they talked about Su Ping on the spaceship, they felt both anticipation and nervousness, but now all that remained was tension and caution.

"Did you come here for sightseeing?" Su Ping noticed the group's awkwardness and asked with a smile, trying to lighten the mood.

"Hmm..." Xingyue Shen'er felt her thoughts were a bit stiff. She discovered that besides Su Ping, there were actually quite a few Gods Conferred in the queue at Su Ping's shop. Their auras were powerful, and they were all comparable to her father.

Beside her, Xingyue Shen'er's father felt it even more intensely. As soon as he entered the store, he noticed that the stunningly beautiful golden-haired figure behind the counter was radiating an extremely terrifying aura. Although she had concealed it, he still felt that she was like a god, impossible for him to ignore.

"Is that also a Supreme Being?" He was shocked. He had once been fortunate enough to see a Supreme Being up close, and the experience was profound, just like today.

"We're about to join the army, and we wanted to come see you before we left," Xingyue Shen'er said after hesitating for a long time.

She originally had other things to say and exchange pleasantries, but she couldn't bring herself to say them. She even wanted to say this and then bid farewell to Su Ping and leave.

"Military service?" Su Ping was slightly taken aback. He glanced at them and immediately thought of the insect swarm. His heart sank slightly. He said, "I can exempt you from military service. You can find a planet to cultivate properly."

For Su Ping, it was just a matter of a few words.

Xingyue Shen'er was taken aback, and suddenly a familiar feeling returned to her. She was no longer so nervous, and a smile appeared on her face. She said, "No need. Serving in the army is what we should do. In such a critical moment, it is everyone's responsibility to resist the insectoids. As battle pet masters, how can we hide behind the defense line like ordinary people?"
