Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 285 Slander

Inside the stadium.

The news of the deaths of the two members of the Liu family was quickly spread through the mouths of two middle-aged men in suits, but it did not alarm the major media outlets.

At this moment, the preliminary rounds in various sub-venues are in full swing, attracting the attention of everyone in the base city. Even though some media learned about this from rumors and broadcast it, it did not cause much of a stir.

After all, the deceased were just nameless members of the Liu family, with no fame whatsoever. No one would be curious about the cause of their deaths. It was only the name "Liu family" that attracted the attention of some gossip enthusiasts.

At the Liu family's house.

The news came back immediately; their "ears" were everywhere.

Not only did they hear the news of the death, but they also learned immediately which family the deceased belonged to, the cause of death, and the entire conflict.

When they learned that it was that mischievous pet shop that had committed the heinous act, the Liu family's top brass were all furious.

Although only three insignificant illegitimate children died, it was a slap in the face to the entire Liu family!

Upon receiving the news, Liu Tianzong was furious. He summoned most of the powerful senior members of the Liu family for a family meeting to discuss the matter.

Normally, the deaths of three illegitimate children wouldn't have alarmed these direct descendants, but this incident is different. Not only has the prestige of the Liu family been violated, but the opponent who violated it is also not to be underestimated.

At least they haven't figured out yet what the real background is behind this arrogant shop and the Hellfire Dragon Beast.

Before they could figure out the enemy's true strength, they were hesitant, which is why they did not directly resort to military force to suppress them.

After the meeting, no one knew the specific content of the meeting, but shortly after the meeting ended, a large amount of information about the champion candidate who was recommended by Xiao Taoqi suddenly appeared on the Internet.

In addition to name and age, the information also includes the college attended and a photo.

In addition, there is a lot of negative information about this woman, and the whistleblowers are all public figures with a large number of fans.

For example, a school beauty used her body to gain attention, or a video of her drinking with a coal mine owner.

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. With rumors flying everywhere and many unclear yet similar videos being filmed, many people believed it to be true.

……

After leaving the competition venue, Su Ping took Su Lingyue home.

After three hours of hard work, Su Ping finally drove the car to his doorstep.

First, I let my mom know I was safe.

Seeing them return safely, Li Qingru breathed a sigh of relief. When she learned that Su Lingyue had actually advanced, she was overjoyed and said that she would give Su Lingyue extra food and meat tonight!

Su Ping handed Su Lingyue to his mother, then drove back to the shop, parked the car, and went inside.

In the foster care space, Su Ping saw Joanna cultivating. Her cultivation posture was somewhat peculiar, with strands of golden light swirling around her body, resembling Sanskrit characters, giving her a mysterious air.

There weren't many people on the street, probably all watching the Elite League live stream. Since there weren't many customers, Su Ping didn't disturb her and let her continue her cultivation.

Although the lack of customers meant less energy, Su Ping was happy to relax. He shook Tang Ruyan out of the painting and had her watch over the shop's entrance so she could greet any customers who came.

He himself went into the testing room, summoned the Dark Dragon Hound, and made it his sparring partner. This way, he could not only loosen up the Dark Dragon Hound's muscles and bones, but he also had a suitable sparring partner.

Without a ride to the training grounds, this testing room is a great training ground, essentially a top-level combat arena. No matter how much trouble or destruction you cause, you can't demolish it.

At least, given its current energy level, it cannot cause the slightest damage here.

Su Ping didn't let the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast spar with him. This guy was already close to the ninth-tier limit, and he couldn't beat him at the moment unless he made it hold back, but then the training would be meaningless.

While the Dark Dragon Hound is also a mid-level ninth-tier combatant, far superior to Su Ping, its offensive capabilities are relatively weak.

Speaking of aggression, Su Ping felt a bit of a headache. This dog, as a demon-type attack pet, had maxed out its defensive skills, while its attack skills were its weakness. It was as if it wanted to change its species and become a tortoise.

Su Ping felt it was necessary to let it know the purpose of the attack.

After warming up, Su Ping began to entangle with this guy.

Through the amplification of star power from the Prism Star Core, he can unleash combat power close to the ninth rank. Combined with the Golden Crow Divine Demon Body, his movement speed is comparable to that of a typical titled-level fighter. In addition, with the explosive destructive power of the Demon Suppression Fist, Su Ping's punch is already able to make the high-level shield of the Dark Dragon Hound tremble. If the power could be increased further to reach the limit of the shield, it could be directly shattered.

I trained for several hours.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the door.

Su Ping was also tired from training, so he leaned against the Dark Dragon Dog's belly to catch his breath. The Dark Dragon Dog was also panting, covered in sweat.

After catching his breath, Su Ping went forward and opened the door.

But at the door stood Su Lingyue, looking anxious.

"Um?"

"You, look at these online..." Su Lingyue's anxiety lessened slightly when she saw Su Ping, and she handed the communicator to Su Ping.

Su Ping took a look and immediately saw a large number of news articles about Su Lingyue, as if she had suddenly become a top star and was receiving a lot of attention in a single day.

However, after taking a closer look, he found that they were all negative news and scandals.

Su Ping raised an eyebrow slightly, but his expression wasn't too surprised. He had anticipated this situation, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. It seemed that the Liu family's information channels were quite efficient.

"Congratulations on becoming famous," Su Ping said.

Su Lingyue was stunned, and then almost died of anger from Su Ping's words.

Famous? Is this what you call famous? Now she's practically infamous, destined to be vilified for eternity!

As a girl, her innocence was tarnished in various ways. If her classmate and friend Jiang Xingyu hadn't just informed her, she wouldn't have known that she had become so infamous online!

She had initially thought that Su Ping might have some solutions when she found him, but instead he was just making sarcastic remarks!

"This, this is definitely revenge!" Su Lingyue gritted her teeth.

"Oh, so you know that. That's good then," Su Ping said.

Su Lingyue's eyes widened. At this moment, she truly doubted whether she was this guy's biological sister, or whether his previous concern for her was all fake!

Su Ping raised his hand and gently tapped her forehead, saying, "Knowing that others are retaliating, you're still angry. Isn't that playing right into the enemy's hands?"

Su Lingyue retorted angrily, "You're not the one who's been slandered, of course you're not angry!"

"Who says I'm not angry? I just don't show it."

Su Ping said calmly, "Besides, what's the use of getting angry now? You'd be better off saving that energy on the field. Their slander against you is just a way to hurt you, to make you the object of everyone's scorn, and even to influence some brainless youths so that they might hurt you badly in the competition."

"But if you're strong enough, can't you just crush them?"

Su Lingyue paused, then gritted her teeth and said, "You make it sound so easy, but I'm the one being criticized by so many people. I just want to be a quiet, beautiful girl. Why did you choose me as the champion? You're setting me up!"

"Since you've already fallen into this trap, then enjoy it." Su Ping didn't deny it; he rarely denied what others said, even slander.

Su Lingyue glared at him.

Of course she knew that Su Ping was pushing her forward for her own good. After all, if she could become the champion, her fighting strength would undoubtedly reach an extremely high level.

She would need several years, or even more than a decade, of training to reach that level, but now Su Ping has helped her shorten that time.

Mediocrity or genius, that is the choice. She was naturally unwilling to choose the former, but she did not expect that the price of choosing the latter would be so high!

Moreover, judging from Su Ping's expression, it seemed as if he had expected this all along; this guy definitely did it on purpose!
