Astral Pet Store Novel - Chapter 1268

Chapter 1268 Am I… Qualified? (1)

Su Ping wanted to open his mouth, but he couldn’t even move his lips.

He thought he was about to burst into tears.

The fading contract in his head was telling him that the Little Skeleton’s vitality was declining rapidly, as the pet was on the verge of dying.

Why is it trying so hard?

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Right before all the onlookers, two figures flashed over with a domineering aura. They were none other than the two Celestial enemies.

However, neither Mo Ri nor Ye Chen looked well at the moment. They had indeed dealt a heavy blow to the skeleton, but at a very high cost; their small universes were damaged and would require tens of thousands of years to mend.

“You may rest in peace knowing that a mighty pet has sacrificed itself for your sake!” Ye Chen raised his hand with undisguised fury and killing intent on his face. A destructive black dragon made of Dao Glyphs charged out.

…
Bang!

Su Ping’s body was swallowed by the black dragon. But then something happened: he was ejected right after. The cracked bones on his skin had almost fallen off. The hand that was struggling to drag them to safety was shattered!

“Huh?”

Ye Chen frowned and raised a hand, ready to give Su Ping one final blow. However, he sensed an ominous coldness.

His hand stopped in midair. His eyes grew wider as he stared at Su Ping.

He saw that chaos flame auras were erupting from Su Ping’s pores and interconnecting, covering Su Ping’s body and making him seem like he were burning.

Su Ping was still unable to move. However, the universe of chaos inside his body was almost complete, and was releasing a terrifying power without restraint. This was happening since Su Ping couldn’t suppress it.

“What’s going on?”

Mo Ri slightly changed his expression, as the situation was eery. Su Ping’s body was still paralyzed, floating in midair, but he was releasing an appalling amount of chaos power that even the pure chaos creatures might not have.

“Hurry up and do it! Something’s off!”

Ye Chen snapped out of his shock and his expression changed. He instantly realized why the Dao Glyphs had failed to kill Su Ping; it was all due to the young man’s defenses.

He was decisive as he summoned his damaged small universe, ready to give Su Ping a full-strength blow.

Mo Ri was shocked to see how crazy and daring his partner was; after all, it was really difficult to mend a small universe, and they still had other enemies to confront after that battle.

Is this the determination of a devil from ancient times?

Mo Ri stayed silent. He simply charged at Su Ping with the Nether Saber in hand.

Phew!

The entire space was eclipsed as the small universe drew near. All the onlookers backed away, fearing that they would be caught in a terrifying blast.

Many people showed conflicted faces as they looked at the back of the young man. He was undoubtedly the most talented genius anyone had ever seen, but he was doomed to die.

It was truly sad and unfortunate.

However-right when Ye Chen’s small universe was about to bash Su Ping—the entire world somehow solidified. Everybody experienced an unusual, fleeting sensation, just like some sort of illusion.

The next moment… Su Ping—who had merely been floating the whole time—suddenly struggled to raise a hand.

Is he trying to resist the universe of a Celestial State expert?

“Go to hell!!” Ye Chen declared with a scary

momentum.

A hazy light was slowly gathering in Su Ping’s hand. The next moment—the light stretched out like a mirror and turned into a huge plate that stood in front of the brilliant universe.

Most shockingly of all, Ye Chen’s small universe was forced to stop.

A blast that was strong enough to pierce through half of the Mayhem Star Zone seemed to have lost all momentum, right in front of Su Ping’s hand. It simply stopped!

With black hair fluttering in the void, Su Ping gradually incorporated from his lying posture. He shot Ye Chen with a crazy and cold gaze, eyes bloodshot.

Thoughts of violence almost drove Su Ping as mad as a raging beast. However, his grief and his long-time habit allowed him to keep his rationality.

He slowly lowered his head and looked at the few broken bones left hanging on his body.

The contract in his head was already as vague as a shadow; Su Ping felt like screaming. He tried to hold back the effect, but the contract’s power was beyond his level.

“Master…”

Once it sensed that Su Ping was recovering, the broken bones hanging on his body gradually gathered into a fist-sized skull.

The eye sockets had a barely visible red light within.

The skull’s jaw moved slowly as it sent out a voice. “Am I qualified as your pet?”

Su Ping almost burst into tears as he looked at the remaining skull. He reached out, but the Little Skeleton’s cracked skull was unable to hold any longer and fell apart into countless pieces before his hand could touch it. The pieces then quickly dispersed as powder in the void.

“Run… Quickly…”

A voice barely audible echoed in the void and in Su Ping’s ears.

The faint contract in Su Ping’s head was completely gone by then.

Dead…

The Little Skeleton was dead.

Su Ping stood in a daze. His head was completely blank, as if thunder were rumbling
