Astral Pet Store Novel - Chapter 515
Chapter 515 The Tower
Su Ping didn’t care if that was true or not; he would not miss any chances.
“I’ll go and find Xie Jinshui right now,” said Su Ping.
Whoosh!
He was about to move when the pain in his internal organs made him cough out blood. He fell to the ground.
People were freaked out. With sharp eyes and agile hands, Qin Duhuang helped Su Ping up. “Mr. Su, be careful.”
Su Ping was barely able to see things clearly and the pain was unbearable. “Take me to… Xie Jinshui,” he said, with a weary tone.
Qin Duhuang cautioned him, “Mr. Su, you’re not well. You need to rest.” “Take me to him…”
Su Ping glared at Qin Duhuang, his eyes red.
Su Ping’s glare filled him with dread; not even his legendary warrior cultivation was enough to endure it.
“Okay, I will. I’ll take you to him,” Qin Duhuang promised.
He carried Su Ping up and took to the sky. “I’ll leave the rest to you. I’m on my way back to the east,” Qin Duhuang said before he left.
People nodded. The battle pet warriors, Mu Beihai and Liu Tianzong—who had been stationed in the south side-clearly knew what had made Su Ping so anxious. That famous Inferno Dragon had been squeezed to death in battle by the Otherworld Heavenly King.
Many people witnessed that.
Battle pets were the most important things for battle pet warriors. Still, they didn’t expect that Su Ping would be so distressed because of his battle pet.
Whoosh!
Qin Duhuang headed toward the east at full speed. The Purple Python followed him on the ground.
On the east side.
Gunfire licked the heavens. The cannon shells landed on the wild beasts one after the other. Many battle pet warriors were chasing after the wild beasts with their battle pets.
At the center of the crowd was a huge crocodile that was orchestrating a killing spree.
The crocodile tore and bit. No wild beast could survive that snout.
On the outer wall, some exhausted titled battle pet warriors were having a break. Staring at the crocodile that was running wild, they exclaimed with envy and excitement.
“Mr. Su’s ride is barbaric!”
“Of course. I still cannot believe that the crocodile finished two beast kings in a row.”
“I heard that there were beast kings on sale in Mr. Su’s store. I wish we could have a chance to buy one.”
They wished they could have battle pets like that one.
But they were just thinking about it. They couldn’t even have an average beast king, let alone one as mighty as that crocodile.
“I wonder how the south is doing.”
“I heard the Otherworld Heavenly King is there. The Qin family head went there to help.” They wore concerned expressions. Things had stabilized at the east side with the beast kings gone. The wild beasts were many, but the ones remaining were unable to gather since the crocodile was there. Being in a state of disunity, the wild beasts were unable to escape the slaughter and impending defeat.
Still, no matter how good things were there, if the south side was breached, the good situation achieved there would not be of any help.
The battle would not end while the Heavenly King was still there, and the chance to be victorious would be almost nil.
Xie Jinshui stood on the city wall. He didn’t go and join in the fight in person; he tried to minimize casualties with his commands.
He called the commander responsible. “How is the south doing?”
Soon, he heard a report delivered in an excited voice.
Xie Jinshui had to doubt the credibility of what he was hearing
The Otherworld Heavenly King escaped? Su Ping chased it away?
The south was secure?
Xie Jinshui felt he had to be dreaming. He certainly wished for such a situation but could not dare to hope for it.
He had to verify the information several times to be sure that his hearing worked just fine and the person on the other side of the call was not an impostor. It was true!
The Otherworld Heavenly King ran away…
That piece of news was enough to shock the world. Su Ping was a mysterious man. Maybe he was able to do it.
The young man was capable of deeds that could shock the world!
Longjiang was saved.
The people in the Longjiang Base City were saved!
Xie Jinshui’s eyes were filled with tears.
People asked why his eyes were teary. He answered with a laugh, a tearful laugh.
We are saved…
Before the battle started, Xie Jinshui could not even imagine that possibility.
He stayed, prepared to die together with the Longjiang Base City. He had not had the slightest confidence that they would be able to survive the attack of a Heavenly King. As far as he was concerned, since they had failed to convince a legendary battle pet warrior of the Tower to help them, it was basically impossible for them to guard the city.
But the miracle had happened. “Ha, ha, ha…”
Xie Jinshui laughed as he looked into the sky. The tension in his heart was gone, and he unclenched his fists.
His laugh echoed in the sky.
The battle pet warriors were clueless, not knowing why the mayor was that happy.
It was clear that only good news would produce such a pleasant mood. People were able to see hope. “Sir, what is it?” someone asked.
Xie Jinshui finally finished laughing. He took a deep breath and shouted, “The Otherworld Heavenly King was defeated. We won-! Listen up! Let’s go and kill those bastards!”
With that said, he mobilized his astral powers and flew to enter the battlefield.
The others trembled in excitement.
The Heavenly King was defeated?
Who did it?
Anyway, Longjiang was safe since the Heavenly King fled the battle!
They saved the base city from the Otherworld Heavenly King!
Incredible!
Excited and overjoyed, people’s spirits were at a new high. They shouted and bellowed; even the exhausted titled battle pet warriors hurled themselves into the fight after taking some potions.
Kill them!
The wild beasts’ defeat was achieved even faster.
Soon after, Qin Duhuang arrived with Su Ping.
Qin Duhuang first noticed Xie Jinshui was on the battlefield. He was surprised to see Xie Jinshui fighting personally. He can’t sit still, can he?
Qin Duhuang helped Su Ping settle down on the outer wall. “Mr. Su, wait here. I will get Old Xie for you.”
Su Ping could barely muster the strength to nod.
Whoosh!
Qin Duhuang flew off from the outer wall and hurried to see Xie Jinshui.
Xie Jinshui was having a good time killing those wild beasts. He immediately invited Qin Duhuang to join him, but the latter told him about Su Ping. Surprised by this, Xie Jinshui darted a look at Su Ping. Su Ping’s state made him stop right away and go back with Qin Duhuang.
“Mr. Su.”
Xie Jinshui could not believe it.
He had never seen Su Ping so weak before. His face was as pale as a piece of paper, as if his blood would have been drained. Even standing straight was a problem for Su Ping; he could fall at any moment.
Xie Jinshui remembered the news he had heard. He saluted Su Ping formally.
“Mr. Su, thank you!” he said, choking with emotion.
“It’s okay…” Su Ping paused to take a breath before he asked, “I heard that you know about the Soul Nurturer. Is that true?”
Qin Duhuang only told Xie Jinshui that Su Ping had requested his audience, but not the exact matter. Xie Jinshui nodded. “Yes. Mr. Su, why the question?”
“I need it,” Su Ping said, “Do you know where to find it?”
Su Ping spoke with haste. Xie Jinshui looked at Qin Duhuang and was immediately enlightened. He knew that Soul Nurturer was beneficial for the soul. One would only use the Soul Nurturer when someone or something’s body was gone but the soul remained and was properly preserved.
Xie Jinshui had worked out a theory in regards to Su Ping’s impatience.
“Mr. Su, do not worry. The Tower has the Soul Nurturer in storage. I can take you there any time to ask for it, if you want,” Xie Jinshui assured Su Ping.
