Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 569 Heading to Zhenwu Academy

Su Ping was taken aback.

The next second, his expression changed immediately.

Whoosh!

His figure flashed and he instantly appeared in front of the middle-aged man.

"What did you just say?" Su Ping stared intently at him, his eyes filled with coldness.

The middle-aged man's pupils contracted, his hair stood on end, and he felt a sense of suffocation. Especially when he saw Su Ping's eyes in front of him, his consciousness short-circuited, and his mind went blank.

"I, I..."

He became so nervous that he started to stutter and didn't know what to do.

When he came to his senses, he was startled by his own nervous appearance. He was an eighth-level master, yet he was frightened like this by a mere teenager.

"I've come to find your sister, Su Lingyue, on the orders of my teacher..." the middle-aged man said with difficulty. Although he tried his best to control himself and didn't want to lose face in front of a young man, his voice trembled slightly due to excessive nervousness.

"Isn't she at Zhenwu Academy? How could she have disappeared?!" Su Ping said angrily.

His eyes made no attempt to hide his anger.

Su Lingyue has disappeared?

In a prestigious institution like Zhenwu Academy, he simply couldn't believe there was no surveillance.

Even if it's true that she doesn't exist, how could the True Martial Academy, with its power, not be able to find Su Lingyue?

"I... I don't know either. The teacher thought she had returned to her hometown of Longjiang. I heard that Longjiang was attacked by the other side. She may have gotten wind of it and rushed back, so the teacher sent someone to inquire..." The middle-aged man said with difficulty, feeling like he could hardly breathe under Su Ping's angry gaze.

Su Ping grew increasingly angry.

If Su Lingyue comes back, he can't possibly not know.

He instructed Han Yuxiang to take care of her, but now he's actually taking care of her to the point of her disappearance.

Negligence! Damn it!

Su Ping glanced at the extremely nervous middle-aged man in front of him, and forced back his anger. The other party was just an obedient person, and there was no point in venting his anger on him.

He immediately took out his communicator and contacted Mayor Hsieh Chin-shui.

"Boss Su?"

Upon connecting the call, Xie Jinshui was somewhat surprised and quickly asked, "Is something the matter?"

"Mayor, please check the recent entry and exit records for Longjiang to see if my sister has returned," Su Ping said in a deep voice.

"it is good."

Xie Jinshui readily agreed, which seemed a bit strange, but he sensed that Su Ping seemed to be in a bad mood, so he didn't ask any further questions.

Soon, Xie Jinshui informed Su Ping of the results of his inquiry.

No.

Recent entry and exit records from various places do not show any registration of Su Lingyue's identity.

She didn't reply...

Su Ping's heart sank even further.

When he was looking for Xie Jinshui, he guessed that this might be the outcome. After all, if she were to come back, she would definitely go home. It was impossible for her to wait until this student of Han Yuxiang came to her door without returning home.

Thinking of the several base cities outside that had been attacked by beast tides, Su Ping's expression grew increasingly grim. If Su Lingyue happened to pass through these base cities and encountered a beast tide that sealed off the cities, forcing her to stay inside, she would most likely be in danger.

Although Su Lingyue possesses the Silver Frost Star Moon Dragon, whose combat power is comparable to that of a titled upper-level to titled upper-level beast, it's hard to say what might happen if there are king-level beasts in the beast tide.

Su Ping took out the communicator again and went to the Qin family.

Soon, Su Ping learned from Qin Duhuang the specific locations and routes of the base cities that had encountered the beast tide. He found a return route map from Zhenwu Academy to Longjiang online.

After comparing the data, Su Ping discovered that none of the base cities that had experienced the beast tide were on the return route.

In other words, if Su Lingyue is going home, she can get directly to Longjiang without any problems!

"How did she disappear, and when?"

Su Ping turned around and stared at the middle-aged man with eyes like knives.

Seeing Su Ping's sharp gaze, the middle-aged man's heart skipped a beat. He had previously underestimated the young man, but now the young man seemed like a different person. The terrifying aura and indescribable killing intent emanating from him made his eyelids twitch.

Only then did he understand why his teacher had repeatedly told him to be polite to this Mr. Su Ping.

"Your sister disappeared a week ago, shortly after the attack on Longjiang by the other side. I heard from the teacher that the last time he saw her, she was still in the Dragon Martial Tower of the academy," the middle-aged man said in a low voice. He himself did not realize that his attitude had become cautious.

"A week ago?!"

Su Ping was about to explode.

A domain of power emerged behind him, shadows swirled, and malevolent figures carrying murderous intent drifted by, causing the surrounding temperature to drop significantly.

He only found out now that he'd been missing for a week?

Han Yuxiang only just realized he had sent people to Longjiang to look for someone?!

Su Ping took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and turned to look at the side. He saw that Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong were both looking at him nervously, and his anger suddenly subsided a lot.

"I'm leaving the shop in your care," Su Ping said. "I'm going out for a bit. Don't tell my parents about what happened here, so they don't worry."

Tang Ruyan quickly said, "Where are you going? I'll go with you."

"No need, I can save time by myself," Su Ping said.

Tang Ruyan bit her lip slightly and said, "Now I have the ability to go anywhere with you."

"I know."

Su Ping glanced at her, said nothing, and instructed the middle-aged man in front of him, "Lead the way to your Zhenwu Academy."

The middle-aged man was stunned. Sensing the killing intent emanating from Su Ping, his expression changed slightly. He said, "What are you going to the True Martial Academy for? Your teacher is very worried about your sister's disappearance and has been searching for her everywhere..."

"You'll have to lead the way!"

A murderous glint flashed in Su Ping's eyes.

With a loud bang, the middle-aged man felt as if something sharp had pierced his brain. His mind went blank for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he found himself drenched in cold sweat. He was somewhat frightened. The young man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person. He had never seen such a terrifying aura and pressure from his teacher.

But his teacher is the vice dean of the True Martial Academy, a powerful expert at the limit of the title!

"I...I understand," the middle-aged man said, his face pale.

"bring it on."

Su Ping said something to the pet room staff.

The next moment, a figure flew out; it was the little skeleton that had just returned. It moved swiftly and came to Su Ping's side, standing obediently.

At the same time, a scorching aura swept out, and a ferocious dragon body stepped out from the giant door of the pet room, revealing the figure of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast.

Upon seeing the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, the middle-aged man couldn't help but widen his pupils, his face filled with horror.

This is a rare existence at the third level of the Dragon Rank!

However, the Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast in front of him was somewhat different from the one he had seen in the encyclopedia. Its scales were mixed with purple scales, making it look like a mutated Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast.

This young man actually has a pet beast of this level?

The middle-aged man was somewhat shocked, and his fear of Su Ping grew even stronger.

Su Ping stepped outside the shop, and the Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast also arrived at the shop entrance. Su Ping leaped onto its shoulder and simultaneously unleashed a burst of power, pulling the middle-aged man to his side as well, saying, "Let's go."

The little skeleton teleported to the other side of Su Ping. After receiving the order, the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast was surrounded by purple lightning. The next moment, its body floated up and shot straight into the sky.

After its body was reconstructed from the dragon source of the Purple Blood Heavenly Dragon, the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast inherited the bloodline of the Purple Blood Heavenly Dragon. Combined with its own bloodline, it has mastered the ability to fly, which is an instinct of the Purple Blood Heavenly Dragon clan. Moreover, its flying speed is extremely fast, not inferior to some flying pets known for their speed among those of the same level.

Its enormous size and rapid flight created a whooshing sound like a tsunami as it swept across the sky above the shop.

"Has Boss Su gone out?"

Across the street, Qin Duhuang jumped down from the second floor, arrived at the door, and looked at the two women standing there gazing into the distance.

Tang Ruyan stared at Su Ping's figure until it shrank to a black dot before turning her gaze away and nodding slightly.

She didn't reveal Su Ping's whereabouts. Although Qin Duhuang was a trustworthy person, it was always wise to be cautious.

Qin Duhuang glanced at her, his eyes flickering slightly, and suddenly whispered, "Was it really you who annihilated the Situ and Wang families before?"

Tang Ruyan's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately realized that the latter had come for her. She didn't try to hide it and nodded, saying, "That's right."

Qin Duhuang's pupils contracted. He clearly remembered that Tang Ruyan's cultivation level was only at the seventh level before. In just a few days, she had actually jumped to the title level and even had the power to flatten the Situ and Wang families.

Even now that he's a legend, he wouldn't dare say he could wipe out those two races!

After all, both clans have produced legendary figures, and some of these legends even joined the Peak Tower, leaving behind a legacy that no outsider can comprehend.

Judging from Tang Ruyan's battles that destroyed the Situ and Wang families, Qin Duhuang felt that the girl's combat strength was no less than his own.

But he is a legend!

The opponent's current aura is only at the title level, and only at the mid-level!

He opened his mouth slightly, but ultimately held it back.

Tang Ruyan saw through Qin Duhuang's thoughts, and snorted inwardly, thinking to herself, "You're smart enough to know what's good for you."

She guessed that Qin Duhuang was curious about her combat power leap, but she didn't say anything. It was Su Ping's secret. The fact that Qin Duhuang was able to refrain from asking made her think that the old man was quite sensible.

After all, it is not a wise thing to pry into other people's secrets.

"Does Boss Su need any more staff? I'd like to give it a try when he gets back," Qin Duhuang suddenly said.

Zhong Lingtong, who was standing nearby, was dumbfounded. Even though she had no interest in cultivation, she knew that the old man in front of her was a legend.

Not long ago, Su Ping said that the minimum requirement to become a store clerk was to be a legend.

So now the other party wants to apply for the job?

Is it really true that a legendary figure is willing to work as a shop assistant?

Soon, she noticed something and couldn't help but look at the old man warily.

The other party's words clearly indicated that they had overheard what Su Ping had said in the store earlier, showing that they had been closely observing Su Ping's situation, not even missing his conversations with customers.

No wonder he moved to such a nearby place, that old man is really wicked!

Zhong Lingtong's eyes turned unfriendly.

Qin Duhuang sensed a hint of hostility and noticed the gaze of Su Ping's apprentice beside him. He was taken aback, but quickly understood her thoughts and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Upon hearing Qin Duhuang's words, Tang Ruyan raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of hostility flashing in her eyes. This wasn't the kind of hostility Zhong Lingtong displayed, but rather... someone was trying to steal her job!
