Chapter 389: Five Families Gathered

Chapter 389 Five Families Gathered

Tang Ruyan realized that she had never gotten to know Su Ping before. I tried my best to overestimate you and I ended up underestimating you!

That was exactly how Tang Ruyan was feeling. First, a titled battle pet warrior came to deliver something to Su Ping, and then two titled battle pet warriors came to give Su Ping a present, and Venerable the Blade was close to him…

The more she thought about it, the more baffled she was.

“Nothing else?” Su Ping asked.

Zhou Tianguang and the old man gazed at each other in speechless despair. The two vials of dragon blood from a legendary rank specimen were incredibly valuable. How could Su Ping be unhappy? “Well, Mr. Su, what do you need?” Pushing down his anger, Zhou Tianguang smiled.

Su Ping was a man who could overwhelm an entire family on his own. No matter what Su Ping said, they couldn’t argue with him. Their only option was to pander to him.

“I don’t need dragon blood. Take it back and get me something else,” Su Ping said.

The two were speechless. Tang Ruyan stared at him, open-mouthed. He doesn’t want the dragon blood? Dragon blood is an invaluable asset for dragon owners!

Su Ping did appear to genuinely dislike the dragon blood. The two from the Zhou family were puzzled. “Well… okay.”

Zhou Tianguang conceded.

Inwardly, he was feeling awkward. Something else? It was difficult to find something that could equal the dragon’s blood. The only thing that could compete with the dragon’s blood would be something that even their family found rare.

But that was a family heirloom. They couldn’t give that away.

What trouble.

“Since you’re here, take a seat. Wait till the others get here and let’s have a meeting,” Su Ping said. He didn’t put on airs. Being the first to arrive, the Zhou Family had shown more sincerity compared to the other families. Besides, dragon blood was rare indeed. He would want it badly if it weren’t for the cultivation sites.

He didn’t know where the Zhou Family had come across it, but they must have gone through tremendous troubles. “Sure.”

“Mr. Su, I see you’re still having lunch. Apologies for having arrived at a bad time.”

The two were relieved that Su Ping had not acted in a hostile manner. They tried to strike up a casual conversation.

Su Ping nodded and said to Tang Ruyan, “Take care of them and don’t wander away. I’m gonna go and finish my lunch. I’ll be back in a moment.”

Tang Ruyan agreed with a yes.

Only till then did the two from the Zhou Family notice Tang Ruyan who seemed to be familiar. Zhou Tianguang thought of something. Surprise came into his eyes.

But he soon covered up his surprise with a natural look.

Su Ping was about to go home when he saw the man in the black suit still standing by the door. “Do you need anything else?”. “Eh, no.”

“Oh.”

Su Ping said nothing else and shuffled away.

To his dismay, Su Ping found that only a few meat dishes were left on the table. Those people were all meat lovers.

That guy came to make the delivery at such a bad time. Doesn’t he know that noon is when people have lunch?

“What’s happening outside?” Venerable the Blade asked after Su Ping came back. Both he and Wu Guansheng had sensed the existence of titled battle pet warriors.

“Nothing. I ordered something and the delivery guy just arrived,” Su Ping answered.

Venerable the Blade and Wu Guansheng looked at each other. They could tell it wasn’t that simple.

Su Ping didn’t elaborate. He swallowed his lunch quickly; the others had already put down their bowls. He took a look at Su Lingyue’s hand. The new hand was growing, but slowly. The new hand looked like a kid’s hand: short, chubby and kind of adorable.

Wu Guansheng’s healing skill could help a severed limb grow back, let alone a hand.

“Ma, I have to go back to the store…”

Su Ping stood up.

“Okay. Be nice to the customers,” his mom said the usual words.

Su Ping left at once. Venerable the Blade followed Su Ping. He said goodbye to Li Qingru, Wu Guansheng, and Su Lingyue, then headed to the store after Su Ping. The man in the black suit had flown away on the Golden-crowned Eagle.

Su Ping went through the doors with Venerable the Blade, only to see that Tang Ruyan was chatting happily with the two from the Zhou Family.

Tang Ruyan stopped the conversation abruptly and smiled an embarrassing smile at Su Ping when he walked in.

Su Ping only gave her a sideways glance.

The two from the Zhou Family sitting on the couch noticed that Su Ping had arrived. They turned around to see him; that look left them rooted on the spot.

“Venerable the Blade?”

The two were in a daze for a second before they stood up in shock.

Venerable the Blade was connected to the store?

What they heard from the Mu Family was true?!

The two were unable to believe it. Venerable the Blade was a titled battle pet warrior, well-known in the entire Subcontinent District. It was beyond logic and above reason that he would be in this small store!

Venerable the Blade didn’t know that two more titled battle pet warriors had paid Su Ping’s store a visit while they were away. But the two were not people that he knew. Venerable the Blade replied with a nod.

Then, everyone heard a car driving closer.

Soon, the car arrived at the store.

The reporters were in another uproar. The car pulled over and two titled battle pet warriors stepped up the stairs.

Zhou Tianguang immediately recognized that they were from the Ye family.

Ye Qiu and Ye Zhan. Ye Qiu and Ye Zhan first were startled after seeing the two from the Zhou family. Inwardly, addressed them as old foxes. They had thought they had gone there quickly enough. How could they know that the Zhou family would react even faster?

The next second, Ye Qiu and Ye Zhan noticed the person standing next to Su Ping.

What a surprise.

They recognized Venerable the Blade; neither expected to see him there.

Venerable the Blade was someone who could become a legendary battle pet warrior!

Ye Qiu and Ye Zhan felt extremely flattered. They hurried inside without assuming any airs.

“Mr. Su, nice to meet you. This must be Venerable the Blade. How do you do?” Ye Qiu and Ye Zhan greeted them with the best attitude.

Venerable the Blade replied kindly to their greeting. After all, those two were also titled battle pet warriors. “So, your family head is also busy with something?” Su Ping raised his eyebrows. The family head of the Zhou family was not there and the Ye family had resorted to the same tactic. It seemed that they were afraid for their family heads to show up, in case there was danger involved. He believed the other three families would do the same.

Su Ping was unhappy. He had nothing to say to those elders since their family heads were not present.

The two elders from the Ye family were embarrassed, but scheming as they were, they soon found an excuse.

Their excuse sounded quite reasonable.

Su Ping did not bother exposing their lie. He told them to sit down and wait for the others to arrive.

Venerable the Blade could tell that those people had shown up to answer to an invitation made by Su Ping. He had not chosen the perfect day to visit; something was going to happen in the store.

That being said, Venerable the Blade believed that those insignificant titled battle pet warriors would be unable to stir up much trouble.

He chose not to get himself involved. He asked Su Ping for the Little Skeleton, to continue the lessons.

Su Ping didn’t summon the Little Skeleton right away. After all, he would need the Little Skeleton to scare the five families if the conversation didn’t go pleasantly.

Su Ping told Venerable the Blade to sit down. He grabbed some ice cream and sat down on the couch.

“Brother Leng, do you want one?”

“Well, sure.”

Su Ping grabbed another ice cream cone and handed it over.

Su Ping and Venerable the Blade were sitting on the couch, eating ice cream. The four elders felt quite awkward; even Tang Ruyan was getting a bit uneasy.

“Mr. Su, a small gesture from us.”

The two elders from the Ye family took out a present, worried since Su Ping had not said anything to them yet.

Su Ping darted a glance. “What is that?”

The two elders from the Ye family opened their present at once. It was a pendant that was both precious and useful; it had a miraculous effect that nurtured a person’s spiritual energy. Su Ping immediately lost interest. He had artifacts with similar properties.

He had taken at least three of such items from the Mysterious Realm. He saved the best for himself and gave Su Lingyue the second best.

“It would benefit Miss Su considerably.” The two from the Ye family smiled fawningly.

Su Ping took it over. He considered giving his mom the Soul Lantern and let Su Lingyue have this pendant.

“Fine,” Su Ping answered and put away the pendant casually.

The two from the Ye family were unable to determine what Su Ping was thinking. Did he dislike it? Or, did he like it but wanted more?

At that moment, another car was driving over.

The other families arrived one after the other. They must have discussed matters beforehand.

Su Ping was right. No family head would go there. Only family elders would attend. The Qin family had sent over an elder and another representative that Su Ping knew: Qin Shuhai.
