Chapter 518 Beg for an Audience

“There’s a Mysterious Realm from thousands of years ago, which was later explored to become the Tower’s location.”

Xie Jinshui led the way.

Su Ping had placed the Dark Dragon Hound back in the contract s.p.a.ce. He gazed at the swirl in the air; he was able to tell that the s.p.a.ce layers were overlapping in the swirl but they weren’t harmful.

Xie Jinshui took the lead and vanished as he went into the swirl.

Su Ping and Qin Duhuang followed him. They felt as if they had gone through a waterfall, except that they weren’t drenched afterwards. When they opened their eyes again, Su Ping and Qin Duhuang were amazed by what they saw. The world inside the swirl was vast and boundless! Clouds floated in the azure blue sky. Many palaces were also floating in the air!

Su Ping sensed that the gravity field was different there, and the astral powers were several times more profound than outside; cultivation would progress much faster there.

No wonder some t.i.tled battle pet warriors would rather stay there as “servants.” Just staying there could be beneficial.

“Is this place the Tower?” Qin Duhuang was a first-timer. He couldn’t have thought of this view in his wildest imagination. The first thought that came to his mind as he felt the profound astral powers was that his Qin family’s younger generations would develop rapidly if he could relocate them to that place! Even the mediocre youngsters could rise to be on par with the elites of other families after living in such an environment for some time!

He wondered, as a legendary battle pet warrior, if he would be able to bring along his family members.

While Qin Duhuang was pondering, Su Ping had already recovered from his surprise.

He had seen too many places like this one to be surprised for long.

The place couldn’t even compare to the castle Joanna lived in since Divine Energy could be found there, aside from the known astral powers. Strange herbs and plants were also abundant. That was why Su Ping would always think of ways to plunder left and right when he visited Joanna’s realm. “This is the Ocean Star, a Mysterious Realm. And you are?”

Two people flew over and both were wearing purple robes of the same style. The two weren’t legendary, merely t.i.tled battle pet warriors.

They were at the very peak of the t.i.tled rank, each of them stronger than Xie Jinshui.

“Xie Jinshui?” One of the two recognized Xie Jinshui at once. He had just been there a couple of days before. What is he doing here again?

Is he going to beg again?

That t.i.tled battle pet warrior immediately said, “Is your base city still there? Are you here to ask us for legendary battle pet warriors again? That’s not going to happen. No one can protect the base city when the Otherworld Heavenly King is there. I thought we told you to relocate your residents. Save whoever you can.” Xie Jinshui pulled a long face. “I’m not here to request help from legendary battle pet warriors. The Longjiang Base City is safe!” He deliberately stressed the word “safe”.

He was furious.

No one went back with him and he had gotten down on his knees for nothing. If it weren’t for Su Ping, the base city would have been doomed.

Even with Su Ping’s help, given the number of beast kings and the presence of the Heavenly King, the casualties were still alarming and he couldn’t even think of that subject.

What would have happened if Su Ping had not been there?

“Safe?” The two t.i.tled battle pet warriors were surprised. Safe from the strike of the Otherworld Heavenly King?

Soon, they thought they had figured out the reason. “Good to know. So, the Heavenly King was not there. I told you. Why would it go and strike your base city when we haven’t detected its trace for years? You worried for nothing. Luckily we didn’t send any legendary battle pet warriors. They would have been involved on a wild goose chase and you would have to shoulder the blame.”

“Indeed.” The other t.i.tled battle pet warrior nodded in agreement.

Xie Jinshui wore a wrathful expression, but Qin Duhuang started before him, “Watch your mouth. Who said anything about the Otherworld Heavenly King not being there? Wild goose chase? It was a matter of life and death for a lot of people. What is one trip to them? Are all legendary battle pet warriors this pampered?”

Before that war, Qin Duhuang had normally been a person who would conceal his anger and delight.

He had become an old fox, contrary to his former Raging Spirit self.

However, he had morphed back to the man that shook heaven and earth during the battle. He would speak his mind without concealing anything He had also become a legendary battle pet warrior and no longer cared about those two t.i.tled battle pet warriors. He could kill them with a single thought!

Even if he wasn’t at the legendary rank, he was still fearless when he was at the peak of the t.i.tled rank.

He was a proud man; he didn’t go there to become a servant, no matter what the benefits were!

Even t.i.tled battle pet warriors had their dignity! He would rather stay without the strength if he had to insult himself to get stronger!

He was advanced in his age but not in his mind!

The two were startled by Qin Duhuang’s fit of anger.

How dare he insult legendary battle pet warriors?!

Suddenly, they realized that Qin Duhuang was releasing an energy so overwhelming that they began to have trouble breathing.

This man is a legendary battle pet warrior!

They had seen too many legendary battle pet warriors in the Tower to easily recognize that pressure. Besides, given the fact that both were at the peak of the legendary rank, no one at the t.i.tled rank could have stressed them out like that.

If this man is a legendary battle pet warrior, then the insult… Never mind.

“You’re a new legendary battle pet warrior?” The two immediately wore fawning smiles, although hiding their anger and hatred behind their expressions.

No one liked to bow down and b.u.t.ter up people.

Dogs usually hide their teeth when they wag their tails. But this doesn’t mean that the dogs don’t have teeth!

“Hmm!” That was Qin Duhuang’s answer.

The two apologized with even more respect and one of them added, “You must be here to report. Mr. Xie, is he from your base city? Congratulations!”

“Congratulations.”

What a change of treatment.

The t.i.tled battle pet warriors had forgotten about their dignity. They swallowed their pride but what kind of pride would that be?

After a long time, their minds would warp, making them become irritable people.

“I’m here to ask for an herb. Please show me the way to meet Legend Abyssal Ocean.” Xie Jinshui went straight to the point. He wasn’t in the mood to say another word to those two.

“An herb?” The two were surprised.

However, the two were afraid to ask further with Qin Duhuang present. They just said yes and showed them the way.
