Chapter 529 - Selling the Swamp War Crocodile



Su Yanying, the girl who had been his first customer, was gone... Su Ping had missed her memorial which had been held when he was in a coma.

Su Ping could hardly believe it.

Life was so vulnerable.

He found no words to describe the sadness in his heart.

He had encountered so many deaths and seen so much blood. Still, when the passing was of someone he was familiar with... it was such a distressing feeling.

He still remembered that the girl had strived to become an explorer, to make money, to better support her family so that they could move to the uptown area, leaving the shantytown area behind to enjoy a better life...

The Lightning Rat he had trained for her had represented hope for a better life. She had such a promising future in front of her... and all of it had been ruined in a beast strike.

The Lightning Rat was still looking around, sitting on the staircase. Su Ping had understood why the Lightning Rat would be there. It didn’t find its master. The Lightning Rat thought that its master would go there and pick it up again if it went back to the store. The Lightning Rat was unaware that its master had bid the world goodbye.

The pet’s wait would not be rewarding.

Su Ping crouched down and patted the Lightning Rat’s head.

The Lightning Rat turned around at once; it showed its teeth and pushed away Su Ping’s hand. The dancing sparks showed that it was hostile to him.

Su Ping didn’t mind the numb feeling on his hand. As he gazed at the Lightning Rat, Su Ping said, “Your contract has been broken. You have no recollection of your past life. Do you even know who you are waiting for?”

The Lightning Rat shot him a fierce look.

Since Su Ping didn’t mean ill by his actions, it calmed down a bit. The Lightning Rat seemed to be confused by Su Ping’s question. The Lightning Rat gradually became sad. The pet was hardly able to tell where the sadness came from.

The Lightning Rat looked intently at the street.

All the Lightning Rat understood was that it felt someone important would show up.

But it had no idea what that person looked like.

Maybe it would be able to tell if that person appeared.

The Lightning Rat nimbly jumped onto the dragon statue, paying no regard to the overwhelming pressure coming off from the dragon statue. It found a spot and crouched down, gazing, waiting.

Su Ping felt his heart hurt so much that he could hardly breathe. He didn’t understand why the Lightning Rat was acting like that after the contract had been broken.

But he knew that the girl the Lightning Rat was waiting for was not coming back.

“How about you stay with me from now on?” Su Ping slowly fed the Lightning Rat his idea through a message from his consciousness.

The Lightning Rat’s ears twitched but it did not look at Su Ping. The Lightning Rat kept on staring at the street and it seemed as if it had integrated with the dragon statue.

Su Ping said no more. He understood what the Lightning Rat wanted.

A battle pet warrior could have many pets but a pet could only have one master.

Su Ping remembered his Inferno Dragon as he looked at the Lightning Rat, remembering how, drenched in blood, the Inferno Dragon put itself in front of him and how it had proudly shouted that it would never fall while it stood in front of its master.

Su Ping clenched his fist and went back to the store.

“Sir, the Lightning Rat...” Zhong Lingtong moved her lips. She was interested in that master-less Lightning Rat and wanted it as her

pet.

Su Ping was able to guess what she was thinking. He also knew she couldn’t have tamed the Lightning Rat by force. He had trained it so well that it was at the peak of the seventh rank, and the Thunder Flash enabled it to survive even while facing eighth-rank wild beasts.

No one below the master level would be able to tame the Lightning Rat.

“Let it stay. Later, buy some pet food that a Lightning Rat would like in some store,” Su Ping replied.

Zhong Lingtong said “oh” after a long while but she thought of another question at once, “Sir, we have a pet store. I think we have herbs that Lightning Rats like in our store.”

Su Ping curled his lips. Of course he knew that, but those herbs were for sale only or for pets he had contracts with.

However, without a master, the Lightning Rat wouldn’t have a way to pay for the food. Therefore, he would have to buy food from another pet store.

“Just do what I said. Don’t ask questions,” he said, grumpily.

Zhong Lingtong had indeed complied. She could sense that Su Ping’s mood had taken a blow. The disaster that happened to the Longjiang Base City had to be the reason.

Zhong Lingtong had seen the mess left behind by war for the first time, all during the past two days that Su Ping was in a coma. She had seen many people wandering around the streets who had been rendered homeless. The lack of emotion on those people’s faces had touched her greatly. “Consider it done,” she said.

...

Soon after, a person whooshed over.

Venerable the Blade entered the store; he saw Su Ping and the two girls at once. He nodded to the girls and said to Su Ping, “Mr. Su, here I am.”

Su Ping had felt him traveling before he entered the store. “I know that you’re going to the Hancheng Base City so I won’t waste much of your time. I have a pet I can sell to you. Do you want it?” Su Ping asked.

“A pet?” Venerable the Blade didn’t expect that Su Ping was intending to sell him a pet.

“Yes, the Swamp War Crocodile you met in the battle,” Su Ping explained.

Even though the Swamp War Crocodile was a powerful pet, Su Ping had intended to sell it. He could only sign a Slave Contract with the Swamp War Crocodile; this would not allow him to take it to a cultivation site to train. The Swamp War Crocodile was destined to reach the peak of the Ocean State unless the Swamp War Crocodile was so intelligent that it would make a breakthrough by itself.

Since the Little Skeleton had recovered, Su Ping was no longer in need of the Swamp War Crocodile.

“...Do you mean that beast king?!” Venerable the Blade opened his eyes wide in astonishment.

Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong were not any less shocked. Both of them knew the pet’s name but neither expected that Su Ping would give away such a powerful beast king!

Su Ping said he was selling it but considering the price, he was practically giving away an invaluable beast king!

“Yes.” Su ping nodded, “It can be of assistance to you during your trip to the Hancheng Base

City.”

Venerable the Blade stared at Su Ping, his mind blank.

He could not, for the life of him, anticipate that the gift Su Ping had mentioned was such a generous one!

A beast king!

Venerable the Blade had witnessed how the crocodile defeated two wild beast kings by itself during battle; the crocodile would be one of the most ferocious ones.

But Su Ping was willing to sell him that beast king!

“The price is about two hundred million. Do you want it?” Su Ping asked.

Venerable the Blade came back to his senses but he was thrown into astonishment, once again by the price. “Two hundred million? Mr. Su, do you mean billion?”

Two hundred million for that beast king?

That was a beast king! That amount was nothing when compared to the worth of a beast king!

He would have bought it even if there were two extra zeros at the end, even if that meant that he would have to spend his life’s savings!

After all, the possibility of having such a beast king as a pet was, to be sure, small. He would have never gotten one if he intended to capture one by himself. He would have to pay a legendary battle pet warrior to help him capture one. But to pay a legendary battle pet warrior... he would have to spend at least dozens of billions.

“Two hundred million,” Su Ping repeated himself. Su Ping wasn’t even in the mood to make jokes because of what had happened to the Lightning Rat. “If you want it, transfer the money and you can have it now.”

He had merely signed a Slave Contract with the Swamp War Crocodile; canceling that contract would not leave him vulnerable.

“Yes, of course, yes!” Venerable the Blade shouted at once.

Only a fool would say no to buying a beast king at the cost of two hundred million. That gift had touched him deeply. He would have never imagined that Su Ping was talking about handing him a beast king as a gift!

Venerable the Blade gazed at Su Ping.

He had been working alongside Yuan Tianchen for years. All he wanted was for Yuan Tianchen to give him some inspiration so that he could reach the legendary rank; Yuan Tianchen would be able to help him capture a beast king so that he could be a match for those at the legendary rank.

However, while Yuan Tianchen had indicated that he would catch a beast king for Venerable the Blade, the former had never put that promise into practice. But for the day, Venerable the Blade would be getting one from Su Ping, a violent one at that! “Mr. Su...”

Venerable the Blade wanted to express his thanks, but was unable to utter those words.

He could not summon the courage to say thank you.

Su Ping was fully aware of what Venerable the Blade was thinking. He patted Venerable the Blade’s shoulder and said, “We are friends, so you don’t have to say anything. You deserve this because you risked your life at the Longjiang Base City. But I do have some small strings attached.”

Venerable the Blade replied in a hurry, “Mr. Su, you name it.”

“You cannot abandon it when you reach the legendary rank, and you can only cancel the contract after keeping it for ten10 years! If you want to cancel the contract earlier, after your rank becomes much higher, you must come to my store and cancel the contract with me as a witness. Can you promise me that?”

UITIES

Venerable the Blade couldn’t believe it was such a trivial matter. He had thought Su Ping was going to ask him for something more important.

“Of course!” Venerable the Blade answered without hesitation, “Mr. Su, you flatter me. This is a beast king we are talking about. Even if I were at the legendary rank, I would have to rely heavily on it, not to mention that I have such a long way to go to reach the legendary rank. I cannot even find where I should start at the moment. Maybe, that will never happen to me...”

He was telling the truth. He was still young and could very likely reach the legendary rank, but he had seen so many talents who reached the peak of the titled rank very early in their lives but failed to reach the legendary rank toward the end of their lives; they could only die in old age and regret.

That was just one rank up, but hope would never be found if one couldn’t find the right direction.

“You can do it. Don’t be discouraged,” Su Ping encouraged Venerable the Blade.

Venerable the Blade answered with a smile. “Should I transfer the money now?”

“Yep.”

“No problem.” Venerable the Blade wired Su Ping the money at once. He was sure that Su Ping was not deceiving him, even though he had not seen the battle pet yet.

For the first time, the ringtone of money entering his account didn’t sound so pleasant.

The Swamp War Crocodile was not his battle pet, technically, but he felt a bit sad considering they had fought alongside each other.

Su Ping heaved a sigh inwardly. He went outside and summoned the Swamp War Crocodile.

Roar!

The Swamp War Crocodile had a body that seemed to be cast in gold. Each of its scales was telling how violent it was and a cold glare bounced off from the scales.

The Swamp War Crocodile was so huge that it almost filled up the street.

Although it wasn’t the first time he had seen the Swamp War Crocodile, Venerable the Blade was not any less and astonished than before. He had seen how Su Ping rode on the Swamp War Crocodile. But this day, that beast king was going to become his battle pet.

With a glow in his eyes, Venerable the Blade eyed every inch of the Swamp War Crocodile.

Su Ping went up and patted the Venerable the Blade. He said goodbye on his mind.

The Swamp War Crocodile groaned. A glint of sadness rose in its eyes.

The next second, Su Ping cut off the contract.

As the contract disappeared, the confusion in the Swamp War Crocodile disappeared. Something was missing in its mind. Some shackles broke. The Swamp War Crocodile felt liberated. It could not help but cry into the sky.

Roar!!

That roar was heard within a large area.

Countless people were alerted, afraid that more wild beasts were coming.

However, some of the repeating customers of the store were relieved once they recognized that the source of the noise was from the Pixie Pet Store, s. If the roar came from the store, then the beast was probably Su Ping’s pet. Even if it were not his pet, he would have killed any intruding wild beast king.

Outside the store.

Su Ping said to Venerable the Blade, “You can sign the contract now.” The roar made Venerable the Blade’s blood boil. He could not wait but step over and sign a contract with the Swamp War Crocodile.

The store’s power contained the Swamp War Crocodile which tried to resist Venerable the Blade’s intention. The contract was finished smoothly.

As the mark of the contract submerged into both their foreheads, an ancient link appeared within them.

The Swamp War Crocodile quieted down. The bond of the contract meant that the Swamp War Crocodile could remain loyal to its master and it would only want to hurt its master if its master had done something outrageous.

“From now on, you will be my partner.” Venerable the Blade patted the Swamp War Crocodile’s scales tenderly.

The bond of the contract told Venerable the Blade that this battle pet had a lonely soul.

But from that moment on, such a lonely soul would be guarded by him.

The Swamp War Crocodile lowered its head and groaned as a reply.

Su Ping was glad that the contract had been established. “Take good care of it.”

“I will.”

Venerable the Blade put away the Swamp War Crocodile. “I won’t waste time on saying useless words. Mr. Su, I will be on my way.”

“Sure.” Su Ping nodded.

Venerable the Blade cupped his fists at Su Ping and flew away. He summoned a flying battle pet and vanished into the horizon.

Su Ping took his eye off from them. With Venerable the Blade and the Swamp War Crocodile, the Hancheng Base City should be saved unless there were other Heavenly Kings hiding, lurking, like the situation that happened to the Longjiang Base City.

Su Ping was about to go into his store when he saw that the little purple guy was still gazing at the street. Even the appearance of the Swamp War Crocodile had failed to distract that little guy for even a second.

Su Ping went back to the store.

Having sold the Swamp War Crocodile, the two hundred million astral coins were converted into two million energy points.

Su Ping let Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong take care of the store while he went back to the pet room and tell Joanna to keep an eye on the store.

Since he was going to a world of dragons, Joanna had to stay.

“Let’s go!”

Su Ping pulled up the World of Purple-blooded Dragons and entered without hesitation.

Joanna watched as the swirl in the air swallowed Su Ping. She hadn’t fully believed in him when he was up, having promised that he would be able to take her to the Achaean Divinity, she didn’t fully believe him. But as time moved along, she was convinced that Su Ping would be able to deliver his promise. It was just that she had not gained enough points yet.

She had become anxious to make more points.

...

In the World of Purple-blooded Dragons.

In a dark brown rocky jungle, with a whoosh, a tiny figure suddenly appeared and fell on the rock like a tiny ant.

Su Ping looked up and around.

Was that the World of Purple-blooded Dragons? A world... of dragons? When Su Ping was looking around, he heard a reckless dragon roar suddenly coming from a distance behind a huge wood forest, a roar loud enough to shake the void. In the next moment, Su Ping saw a huge dragon with a body of several hundred meters soaring out from the giant wood forest in the distance. A pair of huge wings were spread out, covering the sky and blotting the sun, casting down a large shadow.

Su Ping saw that in the dragon’s mouth, there was a dragon’s head, dripping blood.
