Chapter 1364 Old Friend (2)
Many decisions were made and relayed for execution as the meeting proceeded. The entire Celestial Court took action to carry them out.
At the same time-outside of Rhea’s space station-a spaceship had gone through inspection and landed on one of the planet’s continents.
“I didn’t know it would be so difficult to visit this place again.” A group of people walked out of the spaceship. They looked at the familiar yet strange planet with mixed feelings.
One of them teased, “The legitimate owner of this planet was barely able to land on it. That had never happened in the Federation, had it?”
“Good thing the alliance leader’s father helped. We wouldn’t have been given a temporary pass without him; requirements were truly harsh,” said another with a sigh.
“Who can argue with you? According to the news, this is already considered as the Celestial Court’s capital. It is as impregnable as the Court’s royal palace in the past!”
“Ryan, didn’t you say you’d ask Boss Su for this planet? Let’s go there right now,” another man joked.
“Get lost!”
A brawny middle-aged man pushed him away angrily; he was none other than the leader of the Ryan family, which reigned over Rhea in the past. He was also one of Su Ping’s old friends and a member of the battle alliance.
He had been unable until then to get a chance and return to the planet ever since it was pushed across the universe by Su Ping. After that, the young man became famous in the Universe Geniuses’ Contest and rose to prominence. He was too scared to make any sort of claims anymore; after all, a planet was nothing. Being a Celestial expert’s disciple, Su Ping could easily receive a galaxy as a gift.
At the moment, Su Ping’s status was even higher than before. Ryan already considered this planet as Su Ping’s possession; he wasn’t intent on trying to take it back anymore.
Besides, the place was his hometown. He too felt honored since it became so prosperous thanks to the boy.
He had benefited a lot from his connection to Su Ping. Many secondary forces in the universe had gotten in touch, hoping to get to know Su Ping through them and gain something out of it.
The tall and intimidating middle-aged man said in the crowd, “Stop spouting nonsense; Mr. Su is no longer the junior he used to be. According to what I’ve heard from some Ascendant cultivators, Mr. Su actually killed a Celestial. It’s said that he’s already a new Celestial State master. It’s just that it hasn’t been made official; the ceremony was postponed due to the current turmoil in the universe. After all, the ceremony is for the entire universe to watch; there’s no time and energy to do that right now.”

“He killed a Celestial State expert…”
All of them had heard about Su Ping’s feats while traveling on the spaceship. However, hearing those words again gave them such a thrill their hearts were pounding.
“I wonder if he has the time to meet us right now,” said another member, sighing. However, there was neither jealousy nor disappointment in his voice. Su Ping was already so high above them that they could only look up to him.
A girl interrupted everybody and said, “We’re about to serve in the army. Let’s go visit him.”
“You’re the boss, Miss Shen’er.”
“Let’s go there and take a look.”
Everybody agreed. They immediately took a smaller shuttle and flew to one of the planet’s stations. Then, they traveled all the way to Woffett.
Ryan couldn’t help but rub his eyes as he watched from the spaceship at the current Woffett City. The place had been completely transformed. Many lofty buildings had risen to scrape the sky. The city had expanded dozens of times over and absorbed many of the neighboring cities, becoming a super metropolis.
“So many powerful auras.” Xingyue Shen’er’s senses were keen. She wore a solemn expression; there were powerful Ascendant State auras as strong as her father’s everywhere she probed in the city. “Why do I get the feeling that all the people here are battle pet warriors?” The others were feeling the same. They didn’t see many of the ordinary people.
Ryan said, “The ordinary people probably went elsewhere. Moving away is very tempting when experts are willing to pay.”
Everybody understood the logic. Now that all the strong people had been attracted to that place, it was pointless for ordinary folk to stay around. Might as well move to another place where they could enjoy their lives peacefully.
Very soon, they found the most prosperous street in the center of the city.
A warning sounded in the spaceship right then. Flying was not allowed in Woffet’s inner city.
They instantly parked the spaceship in the outskirts and took a car to the inner city. Then, after half a day, they finally made it to a crowded pet store.
“This is the place.”
“We have to wait in line?”
“Of course!”
“We’re not here to train pets, just to see an old friend. I don’t think we have to wait in line. Let’s talk to the receptionist.”
They squeezed forward through the crowd. Xingyue Shen’er looked around and climbed the stairs, ignoring the anger in the eyes of customers around her. She asked the girl at the door, “Is this Su Ping’s store? We’re his friends.”
Tang Ruyan looked at the girl and mumbled to herself, “Friends?”.
Did Su Ping have any friends? Even if he has any, why does it have to be such a cute girl?
“Achew!”
In the store-Su Ping, who had just returned from a cultivation site, couldn’t help but sneeze. He rubbed his nose. Who’s missing me?
At the door, Xingyue Shen’er explained, “We’ll only be here for a moment; we just came here to say hi.”
“Just wait then. I’ll ask him when he returns.” Tang Ruyan glanced at the people behind the girl; she didn’t think the girl was lying. Considering how everything had developed to that point, nobody no one would dare to lie there. She didn’t think that group of people were bold enough for it.
“Thank you.”
Tang Ruyan detected Su Ping’s aura in the store. She instantly said something to those people and entered.
Once she saw him, she relayed the message and then rolled her eyes at him.
“Friends?”
Su Ping was rather surprised. He spread out his senses and immediately saw the people by the door. He was in a trance, as he wasn’t expecting to see them.
It seemed to have been a long time; however, Su Ping discovered that they had hardly changed. He instantly went to the door and smiled. “What brings you here?”
Everybody was stunned for a moment when seeing him walk out of the store, feeling that they didn’t know him anymore.
Xingyue Shen’er was dazed for a moment. She didn’t know what to say, so she went for the obvious. “You really were here.”
“Come on in,” Su Ping said as he invited them to the store.
All of them followed, instantly feeling flattered.
Many times they had pictured how their reunion would be, but now they found it inappropriate to say what they had in mind when they did meet.
Is this the intimidation you attain after killing a Celestial?
Everybody thought about this and gave Su Ping prudent looks. They were both eager and nervous when they talked about the latter on the spaceship. But now only the nervousness remained.
“Are you here to travel around?” Su Ping asked with a smile, trying to lighten up the mood.
“Well…” Xingyue Shen’er felt that her mind was moving in a rather rigid manner. She had seen that a lot of Ascendant State customers were queuing in Su Ping’s store. All of them were as strong as her father.
The man himself felt it more vividly. He noticed the horrifying aura from the beautiful blonde behind the counter the moment he entered. Even though she was making an effort to conceal it, he could still tell that it was impossible to overlook her.
Is she a Celestial too? His heart shivered. He had the privilege of meeting a Celestial expert up close once. The feeling was exactly the same back then.
“We’re about to serve in the army. We hoped to see you before we go,” said Xingyue Shen’er after a long time hesitating.
There were many words she wanted to say, but she couldn’t say them at the moment. She even felt the urge to immediately say goodbye and leave.
“Serve in the army?” Su Ping was slightly dazed. He glanced at them, instantly being reminded of the worm tide. He said with a heavy heart, “I can help in relieving you of your duties. You can find a planet and cultivate there.”
Making such an arrangement was but a simple matter for him.
Xingyue Shen’er felt dazed for a moment. She suddenly had a familiar feeling, and her nervousness faded. With a smile on her face, she said, “That won’t be necessary; serving in the army is our responsibility. Right now everybody is obligated to resist the worms, being such a dangerous moment. We are battle pet warriors, how can we hide behind defense lines like the ordinary people?”
