"Boss Su, can you lend me a moment to speak?"

"Borrow one?"

Xie Jinshui nodded, stretched out his hand to invite Su Ping to come to the seat next to the window, and put up a soundproof barrier.

Seeing him looking so solemn, Su Ping also became a little solemn, and four or five-character names emerged in his mind...

"Boss Su, I just got the latest news. The monsters that I drove away before seem to be showing signs of resurgence. I'm worried that they will invade again!" Ping shared that Su Ping now ranks first in Longjiang's combat power. If a large-scale beast wave comes, we still have to rely on Su Ping.

Su Ping was slightly startled, then relaxed in his heart: "That's it? If you invade again, just kill him again. The mayor doesn't have to worry."

Seeing Su Ping's calm reaction, Xie Jinshui's mouth twitched slightly, feeling both happy and sad in his heart.

If you have strength, you must be tough when speaking!

He only sighed secretly that he failed to understand the path to promotion to legend. He was already stuck at the limit of being banned. He had been there for hundreds of years and was just one chance away!

If he could become a legend, why would he need to rely on others

Why do we need to be nervous and worried because of a beast tide like now

Shaking his head secretly, Xie Jinshui put away these distracting thoughts and said to Su Ping: "Boss Su, I, Xie Jinshui, will remember this kindness!"

Although Su Ping was willing to take action, he did not take this for granted.

During the defense battle of the base city, strong men like Su Ping, including the five major families and other titles, were willing to lend a helping hand. Xie Jinshui regarded it as a sign of their friendship!

Speaking of which, Su Ping and the five major families are all from Longjiang and should take action, but Xie Jinshui knows that participating in the war will harm their interests and is risky. Only honest people can talk about morality, because the people are so poor. All that is left is a morality that is easy to control.

Trying to use these morals to restrain these superiors is obviously unrealistic and will only be counterproductive. This is the reality.

Whether it is Su Ping, the five major families, or other titles, these people who are able to help are still able to jump to other base cities to make a living. Although they may not be as comfortable as Longjiang, it is a matter of choice.

Trade-offs and choices are human instincts.

What Xie Jinshui can do is to tilt their balance towards Longjiang through his attitude and the treatment he gives.

"This is what I should do. I am also from Longjiang." Su Ping said. He didn't think as much about Xie Jinshui. He didn't need to thank him or anything. He didn't play for Xie Jinshui, but for his hometown. , for his parents, and for the customers who come to his store.

Also to influence the neighbors who once called him "Xiao Su" and the delicious noodle shop on the street...

There are too many, this is Su Ping's home.

It is the place where he lives after he comes to this world and opens his eyes.

It was the place where his parents and he had lived since childhood.

If he had the ability to protect it, he would never let this place collapse!

Hearing Su Ping's words, Xie Jinshui took a deep look at Su Ping. He had such extraordinary fighting power, but he didn't see many "simple" people like Su Ping. When he thought of all the information about Su Ping's life, he I have the most detailed information in my hand, including the hospital where the baby was born and the name of the doctor who delivered the baby.

Perhaps this is the cuteness of a nineteen-year-old boy.

Thanks!

Xie Jinshui still said something deep in his heart, but did not say it out loud again. Some kindness is difficult to express because it is too heavy!

Without staying any longer, after saying goodbye to Su Ping, Xie Jinshui turned around and left in a hurry, leaving through the passage next to the banquet hall.

Watching Xie Jinshui leave, Su Ping thought for a while and then turned back to the previous dining table. He glanced at Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong and said, "Are you full? I'm ready to go back when I'm full."

"Um... burp!"

As soon as Zhong Lingtong opened his mouth, he burped loudly, quickly covered his mouth, looked at Su Ping with bright eyes, and his round face turned red.

"You can really eat it..." The corners of Su Ping's mouth twitched slightly.

Seeing that they were all full, Su Ping immediately found his mother who was surrounded by some noble ladies. Seeing that she seemed to be unable to cope, he told her about going home early.

Li Qingru happily agreed after hearing this. Although these people were very polite to her and followed her words, she felt that she was not from the same world as them and they were just exchanging pleasantries.

When several ladies saw Su Ping, they respectfully called Su Feng.

They didn't know Su Ping's title, so they had to call him that so as not to be rude.

Su Ping nodded, then led his mother and Tang Ruyan's two daughters to leave from the banquet hall and go home early.

On the other side of the banquet, Qin Duhuang, Zhou Tianlin, Mu Beihai and others gathered together.

Although they were chatting with each other, part of their attention was always on Su Ping. When they saw Su Ping leaving early, their eyes flashed, but their faces remained calm.

Now that the main guests have left, there's no point in keeping them around.

"It's getting late, I have something to do at home, so I'm going back first." Liu Tianzong was the first to stand up and said. After speaking, he smiled at Qin Duhuang and others, then turned around and left with the clan elders around him.

Zhou Tianlin and Mu Beihai also stood up and left one after another.

Soon, only the Qin family was left at the dinner table.

"Shuhai, please don't reveal anything about the league to others for the time being. These guys don't know about King Su Ni yet, so let them stay in the dark first." Qin Duhuang casually created a soundproof barrier. , said to Qin Shuhai beside him.

Qin Shuhai was slightly stunned and said, "Why?"

During the conversation, the others intentionally tested his words, but when he saw the look the old man gave him, he didn't answer directly, so he just asked at this moment.

"You have been floating outside for so many years, but you still have no threshold. If they know this, Boss Su's status in their hearts will be higher, and they will be more polite to Boss Su. In that case, in comparison, , our attitude cannot be highlighted, how can this make Boss Su have a better impression of our Qin family?" Qin Duhuang shook his head helplessly and immediately said angrily.

Qin Shuhai was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that this could be calculated.

But thinking about it, building a good relationship with Su Ping is really something worth thinking about.

Su Ping has the ability to kill the legend now. If he becomes a legend in the future, the friendly relationship between the Qin family and Su Ping alone will elevate their Qin family's status. In all aspects of family management, no one dares to If you embarrass them or even provoke others, others may not dare to retaliate!

"I see."

Qin Shuhai said.

Qin Duhuang nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly, sighed and sighed, and said: "Behead the legend, challenge all the banned titles in the league, if I hadn't heard you talk about it, I wouldn't have believed it, no wonder you guys came back at the same time, and He only went there for one day and then came back. I thought he came back on purpose, but I didn’t expect him to come back after finishing the league in such a domineering way.”

Qin Shuhai smiled bitterly, don't say you can't believe it, I saw it with my own eyes, it was like a dream!

"A genius at the level of an inverse king has not appeared for many years."

Qin Duhuang shook his head, sighing, a little envious, and feeling a little helpless. This feeling of helplessness was the same as when he faced the king beast before and almost couldn't save the violent fire ape beast. Make him feel like he is old.

"If those banned people knew that Boss Su is actually less than twenty years old this year, they would probably go crazy." Qin Shuhai also said with a wry smile.

The Qin family has long investigated Su Ping's identity information. Although the information in this information is completely different from the current Su Ping, and there are some hidden information about Su Ping becoming stronger, at least the age is correct.

In the information, there are photos of Su Ping from childhood to adulthood, student photos from elementary school to junior high school, and weird selfies that Su Ping left later. In these photos, you can see the outline of his current appearance. This is how I grew up.

So the age is definitely real.

The corner of Qin Duhuang's mouth twitched slightly, and suddenly he didn't want to talk about it anymore. He said: "You said that the King of the North also appeared in the league. If you say that, the special reward of this league should be specially used as bait, which is just right. I caught this fat fish, the ancestor of the Qing family, but it was a pity that it was killed just after it was caught. It didn't even jump a few times before it was killed. As I had guessed before, there were indeed some shameless old guys who deliberately fished to avoid serving in the army. Hidden cultivation!"

Qin Shuhai said: "Old man, you said that the Northern King came to fish for them, is it really related to the Abyss Cave? I heard some rumors before, saying that the monsters in the Abyss Cave were rioting, and two or three legends were sacrificed before they were suppressed. Go down."

"I guess so."

Qin Duhuang's eyes flashed slightly: "There is turmoil in the Abyss Cave, and there is another monster attack here in Longjiang. I just watched the news. There are two base cities. There seem to be signs of monster siege at the moment. We are asking for reinforcements from all parties. , these things happening at the same time are a bit unusual, and we have to be prepared."

Qin Shuhai's expression changed slightly.

"Lao Xie also left just now, and before leaving, he seemed to have said something to Boss Su. Boss Su also left, probably because of something." Qin Duhuang glanced at the place where Su Ping had been, thought about it, and immediately He stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go back too. I'll go look for Lao Xie and see what's going on."

Qin Shuhai nodded.

After leaving the banquet, a special car took Su Ping and others back.

Su Ping first arranged for his mother to rest, and Zhong Lingtong and Tang Ruyan also sent them to their staff dormitory. Then Su Ping returned to the store alone, turned on the lights, closed the store door, and took a look at the empty store, which seemed lively. He felt lonely after the hustle and bustle, but he felt quite comfortable.

When I came to the pet room, I saw Joanna sitting in the foster care seat and practicing.

"Aren't you bored staying here all day long?"

"So, can I leave the store?"

"cannot."

"What did you say?"

“…”

Ignoring Joanna again, Su Ping summoned the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast and Ergou and let them stay in the foster care space next to them to nourish their spirits.

At the same time, Su Ping turned his palm and took out the talent stone obtained from the King's League!

Seeing this gray stone, Su Ping suddenly realized that he didn't know how to use it yet.

After thinking about it, he took out the communication and contacted Dao Zun.

"Boss Su?"

Dao Zun was a little surprised and surprised when he received a communication from Su Ping in the middle of the night.

Su Ping also didn't expect that a dozen people could actually get through. You know, if Dao Zun is in another base city, his communication will not be able to reach him.

"Are you in Longjiang?" Su Ping asked in surprise.

Dao Zun smiled and said: "No, I'm still in the Ji Dao base city. Boss Su rushed back to suppress the beast tide. It should have subsided now. With Boss Su taking action, this beast tide is seeking death if it dares to invade your Longjiang. "

Dao Zun has no worries about the beast tide.

Although Longjiang is only a second-class base city, but now that Su Ping appears, even if the king beast comes to invade, it can still be repelled, and its defensive power is comparable to that of the seven first-class base cities.

"The beast tide has been resolved. If you are in the Jida base city, how can I contact you directly?" Su Ping asked confused.

Dao Zun smiled and said: "My communication number is a continent-level special number. You can contact me in any base city in Asia, unless I am in another continent."

Su Ping was stunned. He didn't expect such a thing. Sure enough, there are some benefits to being famous. Qin Shuhai didn't have this, otherwise he would have been able to contact him in the Holy Light Base City.

"How do I get this communication number? Can I get one too?" Su Ping asked excitedly. If he had this communication number, he could contact Su Lingyue at any time. After all, he was far away. Even though the vice principal was taking care of him, But after all, there is some concern in my heart.

"Of course you can. Boss Su is a rebel king who is rare in a century. If you want, I'll go back and say hello to Yalu Communications, and they will take the initiative to find you." Dao Zun said with a smile.

"Thank you." Su Ping nodded, and then asked: "I'm asking you about the talent stone. Do you know how to use this?"

Dao Zun suddenly understood, no wonder Su Ping would contact him in the rare middle of the night.

"This is simple. As long as the talent stone comes into contact with star power, it will turn into psychic energy. You can just let your battle pet absorb it directly with star power." Sword Master said with a smile. Su Ping was speechless, he didn't expect it to be so simple.

"I know, thank you." Su Ping said.

After hanging up the communication, Su Ping looked at the talent stone in his hand, thought for a while, and decided to concentrate first.

He called out the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast in the foster care space and threw the talent stone to it.

The Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast subconsciously opened its mouth, hung it in one gulp, and then swallowed it.

Su Ping was dumbfounded. How could this feel like feeding a dog

"This is not for food, use your energy to refine it." Su Ping quickly conveyed.

The Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast blinked, and then energy surged all over its body. Soon, a gray light suddenly appeared on its body, which was similar to the light on the previous talent stone.

This light covered the body surface of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, flickering dimly.

Su Ping looked at the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast curiously.

The Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast raised its head, as if there was something unseen on the roof of the store. Its pupils kept shrinking, as if it was unbearable, and the purgatory flames all over its body were also erratic, as if there was a strong wind, and its breathing became heavier. .

After several minutes, the aura on its body gradually stabilized, and its pair of dragon eyes returned to its original appearance. It raised its paws and gently scratched its head, looking at Su Ping doubtfully.

It has ended

Su Ping thought for a while and was about to try it out to see the effect: "What is 1000-7?"

"?"

Purgatory Candledramon looked at him blankly.

Seeing that it couldn't answer, Su Ping couldn't help but shook his head slightly.

He used identification skills to check the attributes of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast.

The combat power has actually changed, not the previous 10.5, but 10.9!

Improved by 0.4!

Su Ping immediately jumped to the skill bar, took a quick look, and immediately discovered that there was an extra skill in it, and it was a legendary skill!

Song of Purgatory!

Su Ping took a look at it. It seemed to be a dragon-type sonic technique.

"Exchanging a talent stone for a legendary skill is not bad." Su Ping was a little happy. He had heard before that when using this talent stone, there is a half probability of success and a half probability of failure. It is as useless as using it, but in front of him This situation was obviously successful.

It wouldn't be in vain for him to travel and fight.

"good."

Su Ping patted the thick thighs of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast with satisfaction, and then took it to the test room to try this skill.

A few minutes later, Su Ping came out of the test room even more satisfied. The power of this Purgatory Song was quite powerful, and it was considered a very powerful skill.

"Go back." Su Ping asked the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast to return to the foster care position and continue to care for it.

After the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast entered the foster care space, Su Ping looked through the pet space in the store. Due to his departure, Joanna could not receive professional training for him, but ordinary training could be left to the shadow clone. He will do it today. It would be easier at night.

Calling up the cultivation list, Su Ping searched in the cultivation secret realm.

The old Dragon King's secret realm was previously recorded here. Su Ping didn't know if the other two secret realms in the Asia Continent were also recorded here.

After searching for a long time, there were a huge number of these secret cultivation places. Su Ping looked at them ten rows at a time. His eyes were a little blurry after looking at them for more than ten minutes, but he still couldn't find one with the same name, and there was no tie next to the list. Su Ping didn't know. How long do I have to rummage to find out

Thinking about the cultivation planes in the system, covering the ancient times, the number of powerful people born in these countless years and the secret realms they left behind are probably terrifying.

Su Ping shook his head and could only give up temporarily. After all, the name records of these secret realms may not be the same as the official names of the Asia Continent. There is little hope of finding a needle in a haystack.

After thinking about it, Su Ping randomly selected a low-level secret realm like the old Dragon King's secret realm. The highest limit of combat power in it was the king beast.

However, the king beast of the destiny realm is still an existence that is difficult to resist for Su Ping. Even with the life-saving secret treasure given by the old dragon king, he cannot fight against it.

This time, Su Ping did not bring the Purgatory Candle Dragon beasts in. They would not be very effective in such a low-level cultivation plane, so they might as well stay in the foster care space for cultivation.

When he arrived at the cultivation plane, Su Ping mainly wanted to take advantage of the different time flow rates inside to allow the little skeleton to complete its awakening as soon as possible.

This secret cultivation place is a sea of crimson blood, with corpses everywhere inside.

Not long after Su Ping appeared, he encountered undead beasts that emerged from the sea of corpses and blood. They were all eighth- and ninth-level beasts. Su Ping was not polite and directly burst out his star power to rush in.

In addition to the Demon-Suppressing God Fist, he also learned some combat skills from other gods who died in the demigod land. At this moment, in the close combat, he took turns using them and gradually became proficient in them.

In the blink of an eye, the night passed.

It was a night outside. Su Ping stayed in the cultivation world for more than ten days and killed for more than ten days. He felt that his whole person became more sensitive.

After returning to the store, as usual, Su Ping adjusted his mentality and opened the store for business.

The customers are very popular today.

After yesterday's live broadcast across Longjiang, everyone knew about Su Ping, and Naughty's fame has reached an unprecedented peak!

There are several long queues outside the store.

"Boss Su, you defeated the beast tide. Is this true?"

"I, can I get an autograph? I'm your lotus root fan!"

"Boss Su, I'm here to take my son's place. Thank you. Thank you for avenging my son!"

Among these customers, some were curious, some came to join in the fun, and among them there was an old man who came to thank Su Ping.

After hearing the old man's words, the store became much quieter.

In the celebration after the war, people once again thought of the heroes who died in the war.

For a time, many people looked at the old man with solemn respect.

Su Ping didn't expect such a situation, so he quickly helped the old man up.

Before the morning is over, the store is already full.

After lunch, and chatting with Tang Ruyan and Zhong Lingtong about cultivation in the store in the afternoon, Su Ping returned to the place where the demigods fell and continued to cultivate.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

In the past three days, Su Ping's store has been full of business.

At the same time, in the city hall, Xie Jinshui's face became more solemn day by day. The information from the front investigation was not optimistic!

The monsters are indeed gathering!

And there is a tendency to form a very large beast tide!

Not only that, there are also king beasts inside, and this time, there is more than one!

At this moment, he only hoped that the life responses of other king beasts detected were just passing ones.

On the afternoon of the third day, a piece of information suddenly came. Xie Jinshui froze and sat on the chair for a long time before he came back to his senses.

He immediately thought of asking for help.

When he picked up the communicator, the hands of this person with the title of Extreme were trembling.

That night.

Su Ping, Qin Duhuang and others, who were invited by the mayor, gathered in the highest conference room of the city government hall.

"Lao Xie, call us all here. Has the situation in front gotten worse again?" Qin Duhuang saw Xie Jinshui sitting silently, his face changed slightly, and suddenly he realized that he had not seen him for a day, and his temples, It turned a little white!

This gave him an uneasy and ominous feeling.

Zhou Tianlin and Mu Beihai next to them also had serious eyes.

In the past three days, their respective families have also sent people to investigate the situation outside the base city. The beast tide is gathering, and it is very large. Even if Xie Jinshui doesn't tell them, he can't hide it!

The beast tide is coming again!

However, this time, they were not too nervous. Thinking that Su Ping had been in the base city these days, they felt quite confident.

You know, besides Su Ping, there is another legend in Su Ping's store!

Coupled with Su Ping, a guy who can kill king beasts, Longjiang's defensive and disaster resistance capabilities are completely comparable to those of A-level base cities!

Su Ping sat casually in a seat, looking at Xie Jinshui who said nothing, and was a little surprised. Could it be that there was more than one king beast coming this time

"Lao Xie, what's going on? You're talking, you're calling us all here, and you're not saying anything!" The head of the Ye family has a rather impatient temper and speaks straightforwardly. When he saw the silent Xie Jinshui, he couldn't help but shout.

Xie Jinshui raised his head slightly, glanced at him, and then moved his eyes to see Su Ping not far away.

His eyes condensed a little, and he regained some vitality, and whispered: "I called you all over, and I didn't intend to hide it from you. This time, the group of monster beasts gathered outside the base city included not only king beasts, but also king beasts. And the number detected so far...is no less than five!"

"Five?!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Duhuang and the head of the Ye family who had just spoken, their pupils shrank.

Five-headed king beast? !

Just kidding!

An attack by a king beast is already a catastrophe. Five king beasts... This is enough to overturn any base city!

How come these king beasts gather in so many places, and they are all in this poor place like Longjiang? !

Su Ping was also surprised. He didn't expect there to be so many five, and he frowned. If the five king beasts attacked together, there must be a leader among them, and it's possible that a king beast from the Void Cave Realm would appear!

Seeing the surprised reactions of several people, Xie Jinshui's mouth twitched slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Su Ping. Only Su Ping's combat power reached the king level.

Seeing the surprise in Su Ping's eyes at this moment, Xie Jinshui felt that the bridge on the verge of collapse in his heart seemed to be cracking a little more. He said in a hoarse voice: "In addition to these five king beasts... there are also people who have discovered what is suspected to be the king of [the other side]. trace."

silence!

Dead silence fell in the conference room.

Qin Duhuang, Zhou Tianlin and others looked at Xie Jinshui in horror and shock with their mouths open, as if they had seen a ghost.

The other side...the King of Heaven

Su Ping was slightly startled. Seeing their reactions, he also had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Old, Old Xie, is what you said true? Is it a lie? Is it a lie?" Liu Tianzong's voice trembled, and his words seemed a bit incoherent.

Everyone else's throats were rolling, they seemed to be out of breath, and they stared at Xie Jinshui.
