Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 526 Dragon Realm (First Update)

As they left, no one stopped them. Su Ping led Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang directly out of the Peak Tower Secret Realm.

After leaving the secret realm and standing on the cold, snowy mountain, Su Ping turned his head and glanced at the tower. The feeling of loss and disappointment in his heart slowly subsided. In the end, one can only rely on oneself and cannot blame others.

He summoned the two dogs and had them perform the Dragon Form Technique.

At Su Ping's urging, Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang both flew onto Er Gou's back and soared out of the snow-capped mountains.

Once outside the peak tower's area, Su Ping took out the Soul-Nourishing Immortal Herb from the black box, and at the same time summoned the dragon soul of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast in the summoning space.

The hazy dragon soul was like mist and vapor, seemingly about to dissipate at any moment, only enveloped by a faint golden divine light, protected by divine power.

If he couldn't obtain the Soul-Nourishing Immortal Herb from this peak, Su Ping planned to take the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast to the Demigod's Fallen Land again, and let it stay in Joanna's Divine Spring Pool for the time being. After all, divine power could also maintain the dragon soul's immortality, but it was too costly and not a long-term solution.

Upon seeing the translucent Purgatory Dragon Soul, Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang's eyes flickered, but they remained silent. During the two days that Su Ping was unconscious, they reviewed the battle reports after the battle and learned that Su Ping's famous Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast had died in battle, killed by the Other Shore. Fortunately, the dragon beast's soul was extremely tenacious and had not been destroyed on the spot, which gave it a glimmer of hope to prolong its life.

This is also why Xie Jinshui would abandon all his post-war work to accompany Su Ping to Fengta, wanting to make up for Su Ping's absence.

After all, Longjiang survived this time entirely thanks to Su Ping's efforts.

At this moment, after the appearance of the Purgatory Dragon Soul, the Soul Nourishing Immortal Grass seemed to sense it, emitting a hazy dark mist that enveloped and covered the surface of the Dragon Soul.

Meanwhile, the Purgatory Dragon Soul emitted waves of comfortable thoughts, its body shrinking as it burrowed into the roots of the Soul-Nourishing Immortal Grass. Inside, it shrank hundreds of times, resembling a tiny worm, swimming within the translucent roots of the Soul-Nourishing Immortal Grass, absorbing the energy of the dead and concealing itself.

Seeing that it was effective, Su Ping felt relieved.

However, using this Soul-Nourishing Immortal Herb to prolong the destruction of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast's dragon soul is only a temporary measure. He must find the Dragon Source mentioned by the system as soon as possible and revive it to truly eliminate future troubles.

"From now on, the taxes that Longjiang pays to Fengta will be handed over to Boss Su. Boss Su will be the guardian of Longjiang from now on." Xie Jinshui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the situation of the Purgatory Dragon Soul had stabilized. He looked at the snow scene rushing past and sighed, saying to Su Ping.

Su Ping shook his head and said, "Keep the tax money for yourself and use it to develop Longjiang. If there's really nowhere to use it, reduce the residents' taxes so that everyone can live a better life."

Although the tax revenue is substantial, amounting to at least several billion yuan annually, Su Ping is not lacking in money that cannot be converted into energy. He has nowhere to use it anyway. In the words of a certain Mr. Ma, he is someone who is not interested in money. Spending money is a boring thing, and he has no interest in spending money.

Xie Jinshui was slightly taken aback. He glanced at Su Ping and saw that he seemed to be serious, which made him feel a little shaken.

He knew about Su Ping's pet shop and that Su Ping was very serious and diligent in his business there. He even knew that Su Ping had previously been at odds with the Liu family, openly and secretly fighting each other to grab business. He never expected that Su Ping would give up such a huge sum of Longjiang's tax revenue.

He absolutely refused to believe that Su Ping was a person who didn't love money.

If you really didn't love money, you wouldn't do so many strange things for a pet shop.

The significance of this made Xie Jinshui fall silent for a moment.

Qin Duhuang hadn't expected Su Ping to say that. His eyes flickered slightly, and he gave Su Ping a deep look before falling silent as well.

Su Ping glanced at the Purgatory Dragon Soul inside the Soul Nourishing Immortal Grass, his eyes gentle. He gently stroked the grass, feeling as if he were touching the Purgatory Dragon Soul itself. He used to be able to touch it easily, but when the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast was reduced to its dragon soul and became difficult to touch, he realized how luxurious it was to be able to touch it so easily.

Some people and some things are only valued when they are lost.

Su Ping stored the Soul-Nourishing Immortal Grass in his storage space, allowing the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast to recuperate peacefully inside.

……

Following the stars and the moon, Su Ping and his two companions returned to Longjiang in less than half a day.

Su Ping flew directly back to the street outside the store.

Xie Jinshui and Qin Duhuang immediately said goodbye to Su Ping, as they each had their own things to attend to.

Su Ping didn't try to stop them. After parting ways with them, he put Er Gou back into his summoning space and returned to the shop.

Inside the shop, Zhong Lingtong and Tang Ruyan sat idly, but both women had worried expressions on their faces, seemingly not very optimistic about Su Ping's trip to the Peak Tower.

It has to be said that women's intuition is very accurate.

As Su Ping entered, the two women were immediately startled, but when they saw that it was Su Ping, they were overjoyed.

"master!"

Zhong Lingtong exclaimed in surprise and ran over immediately.

Tang Ruyan opened her mouth slightly, but when she heard Zhong Lingtong call out, she immediately stopped talking and rushed over.

She looked Su Ping up and down, and her expression changed immediately when she saw that Su Ping was covered in blood.

"Did the legends in the tower make things difficult for you?" Tang Ruyan asked immediately, her voice unusually angry as she bit her lip.

Zhong Lingtong then realized what was happening and cried out in alarm, "Master, you are badly injured! I'll go find a healer for you right now!" She then turned to run out of the shop.

Su Ping grabbed her arm and said irritably, "Why are you looking for a therapist? The best therapist in Longjiang is right here in our shop."

"Huh?" Zhong Lingtong was stunned, her eyes widened, and she turned to look at Tang Ruyan.

Tang Ruyan was taken aback and immediately realized that Su Ping was not referring to them, but to Joanna, an employee deep inside the shop. Joanna was a full-time employee of Su Ping's shop, not only a legend but also extremely mysterious. She hadn't expected that Joanna even knew healing techniques. Sure enough, she was older than her.

Only with enough time can one have the energy to master so many skills, right?

"I'm fine, it was just a little unpleasant, but it's been resolved." Su Ping said casually, not wanting the two women to worry too much. He could tell that their concern was genuine.

However, to Su Ping's surprise, it was normal for Zhong Lingtong, his apprentice, to worry about him. But he didn't expect that Tang Ruyan, a prisoner, would also worry. Was this a case of Stockholm syndrome caused by spending so much time together?

However, even now, Su Ping no longer regards Tang Ruyan as a prisoner, but rather as a colleague in the store.

"What unpleasantness? Is it with Fengta?" Tang Ruyan couldn't help but ask. If there was an unpleasantness with Fengta, it wouldn't be a "small" matter, but a huge one.

This is the most powerful force on Blue Star. Any order issued from it is enough to make top families like the Tang family tremble with fear. It is a peak power capable of overthrowing and purging any other force. Therefore, many families send people to the Peak Tower to serve those legends, and also to find out information as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Tang Ruyan suddenly felt a pang of sadness.

Unfortunately, she has no connection with the Tang family anymore. Otherwise, she could have used her former identity as the fake young master to learn about the situation inside the tower through some channels within the family and the Tang family's title.

Su Ping shook his head, unwilling to say more. He said, "I have things to do right now. You should let my mother know I'm back so she won't worry."

Zhong Lingtong nodded her round little head, then suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh right, Master, your father is also at home. I heard he just came back from a sea voyage."

Su Ping was slightly taken aback, not expecting that his father, whom he had never met, had also returned.

He had a strange feeling in his heart, his eyes flickered, and he shook his head, saying, "I'll go see them again later, please tell them for me."

He now wants to quickly revive the Hellfire Dragon Beast and finally settle this major matter on his mind.

Zhong Lingtong nodded obediently: "I understand."

Su Ping patted her head, then went into the pet room and closed the door.

Inside the pet enclosure, Joanna was cultivating in her petting cage. As Su Ping entered, she opened her eyes. Seeing the blood on Su Ping's body, a sharp glint flashed in her eyes as she said, "That so-called peak you went to—they wouldn't give you that Soul-Nourishing Immortal Herb?"

Su Ping shook his head, "I gave it to them. There was a small misunderstanding, but it's all in the past now."

Joanna glanced at him but said nothing more.

"I'm planning to go to the Dragon Realm to find the Dragon Source and revive the Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast," Su Ping said. "I'll leave the shop in your care."

"Can I come with you?" Joanna asked.

Su Ping shook his head slightly, "If I go, it's okay if I die, but it won't be good for you."

Joanna only has one life if she goes to other nurturing planes, unless she goes through the employee benefits offered by the system.

If you are selected as an outstanding employee and receive a system reward, you can use energy to purchase more lifespan attempts.

However, Joanna has only been an employee for a short time and has not yet accumulated any points for being an outstanding employee.

"Then be careful." Joanna thought of Su Ping's strange resurrection ability, her eyes flickered slightly, and she suddenly felt that her worries were a bit unnecessary. With the mysterious and terrifying existence behind Su Ping, resurrecting a mere dragon beast would not be an easy matter. After all, it had already been resurrected countless times in the demigod's land.

The fact that he hasn't been resurrected immediately is probably to give Su Ping some tests.

She shook her head secretly, not wanting to think about it further, nor could she understand it.

Su Ping brought up the system list and searched for the Dragon Realm.

Upon investigation, he immediately discovered that there were countless worlds in the cultivation list whose names contained the words "Dragon Realm".

There is an ancient dragon realm (advanced breeding ground).

Great Heavenly Dragon Realm (Advanced Training Ground)

Great Evolution True Dragon Realm (Advanced Nurturing Ground)

Primordial Ancestral Dragon Realm (Top-Tier Nurturing Ground)
