Chapter 1079: Junior Brother

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Chaos Perception Dragon didn’t react after Su Ping spoke.

There was nothing but silence.

A long while later…

Right when Su Ping thought that the dragon would adopt a more drastic method, it suddenly rolled its eye and stared at the young Chaos Beast. Then, it slowly turned around and inhaled the chaos energy, which was too big for Su Ping and the young Chaos Beast to absorb.

After absorbing the mountain of energy, it lay down, like a ridge that stretched for a thousand kilometers. The creature no longer bothered to talk with them again.

Su Ping felt immensely relieved. Then, he felt rather puzzled. The Chaos Perception Dragon was certainly not intractable, but it showed no interest in communicating.

Maybe, it had no interest in communicating with people who were too weak.

Anyway, it seemed willing to let them go.

“Thank you very much, senior.” Su Ping clasped his hands in salute. Even though he was being despised, he appreciated the Chaos Path Beast’s help. He then summoned all his other pets.

After that, Su Ping called out to the system and returned.

Regretfully, the Chaos Perception Dragon didn’t tell him how to find it. It would depend on luck if he wanted to meet it again.

Return.

Su Ping sent the young Chaos Beast, the Little Skeleton and other pets to the pet space, and then traveled back to the store.

On the vast and desolate land—the Chaos Perception Dragon gazed at the place where Su Ping disappeared with its bloody eye, not blinking in a long time.

…

Back in the store—

Su Ping reappeared.

Su Ping had at first planned to go to the Heaven Path Institute, but he didn’t have enough time. Besides, he had learned the law of chaos and even the law of origin while in the Source World; going to the Institute would be pointless.

As to the matter of asking experts of the institute to help move the Demigod Burial, that wasn’t an urgent task, either.

Besides, the more talented he showed himself to be, the greater say he would have in any negotiations.

“You’re back.”

Joanna greeted him casually. But then, her eyes narrowed when she looked at him. “You’re carrying the aura of the chaos law…”

“It’s been perfected,” said Su Ping, not interested in keeping it a secret.

Joanna was stunned. Her pupils contracted.

Perfected?

He’s only in the Star State, and yet he mastered a perfect supreme law?

Joanna was both shocked and curious. She wondered what Su Ping had encountered in the Archean Divinity.?Did someone in the Heaven Path Institute offer him a gift?

Her excitement rose at the thought of that. “Did someone from the Heaven Path Institute…”

“No. I didn’t have time to go there.” Su Ping shook his head.

Joanna felt dazed, realizing he had grown quickly because of other incidents.

She was really envious. Su Ping had previously eaten almost the entire Divine Eye Tree, and he had only grasped the perfect path of fire. As for the supreme laws… Even Ascendant State experts were hardly able to perfect them!

She had only grasped a perfect path by chance after reaching the Ascendant State. Then, she was inspired and quickly perfected all the other supreme laws, becoming the strongest goddess below the Superior Gods in the Demigod Burial!

“I wonder how strong you’ll become when you reach the Ascendant State…” Joanna heaved a sigh. She had always considered herself to be talented. She had been born to a mid-ranked clan. If she had the ancient heritage flowing in her blood, she would have easily become a Superior God!

Su Ping, on the other hand, seemed immeasurable in her eyes.

She no longer dared to measure him!

She had been with Su Ping all through his growth, and she witnessed how he constantly broke his limits.

Even I may not be a match for him when he reaches the Ascendant State…”?Joanna’s eyes glittered. There was a sense of urgency growing within her. She sympathized with Tang Ruyan at that moment.

The feeling of being left behind wasn’t good.

Her eyes glittered as she decided to break through and advance to higher levels as soon as possible!

“Where’s your clone?”

Su Ping looked around the store, but didn’t detect Joanna’s clone. This surprised him.

“My clone has experienced enough; I found a new direction to follow. I’m now aiming for the next level,” said Joanna in a low voice.

Su Ping was stunned for a moment. Then he smiled. “Congratulations. There isn’t a true god in our store yet.”

But there’s someone who’s countless times more terrifying than a true god…?Joanna said to herself.

Su Ping glanced at the employee panel, finding that Joanna’s clone was gone. He checked Joanna’s stats, and conflicting feelings arose.

She was indeed an omnipotent goddess of war!

Almost all her laws were perfect!

What a shame. She probably would have condensed multiple small worlds and reached the limits of the Ascendant State if she would have also joined the Heaven Path Institute!

However, she is already capable of eliminating countless Ascendants in the Federation…

Su Ping sighed.

He walked out of the pet room, then saw Green Lady and Tang Ruyan minding the store. He instantly asked, “How long has it been?”

“Twenty-eight days.” Tang Ruyan was delighted to see him; she ran to meet him. She quickly detected that his aura was even more profound than before. He had become as scary as an abyss.

“You became stronger?”

“Do you think I went shopping?”

“Why didn’t you take me with you?”

“You’re a liability…”

“…”

Tang Ruyan gave Su Ping an angry look and stormed off.

“You can’t always be so mean to her.” Green Lady walked over and looked at Tang Ruyan while shaking her head. “She may really get upset someday.”

“Do I look like a boss who takes advantage of his employees?” Su Ping glanced at her.

Green Lady rolled her eyes at him. “Enough, aren’t you going to fight for the legacy? Like I said, even if you get it, don’t use it; it would be a waste of your potential. Anna told me a lot. I didn’t expect her original self to be that strong…”

Joanna’s aura had even astounded her when the former returned.

She was just a pill anyway. Even though she had spent a lot of time with a Deity King and seen many things, she wasn’t really a god.

Joanna was from a mid-ranked god clan, one that was considered so even in the entire Archean Divinity.

Green Lady had learned a lot from Joanna. She had previously thought that Deity Emperors, the beings above Deity Kings, were at the very top. She had heard tales of higher levels, but those had never been confirmed, and for that reason very few people believed them.

After all, even the Deity Kings were extremely rare, not to mention higher levels.

However, she had recently learned about many levels further above, the highest being Ancestral Gods!

If Su Ping became an Ancestral God… It was possible that he would have the power to bring the dead Twilight Deity King back to life!

Of course, she knew that the possibility was very slim, and that it was probably just her wishful thinking. However, she didn’t want Su Ping to be stuck in the Celestial State. She would rather sacrifice herself to help him break the shackle.

“Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.” Su Ping nodded.

Su Ping was no longer as excited about the true god’s legacy; not after his last training session.

The legacy wasn’t even as rewarding as the training session!

Su Ping was already quite calm in the presence of the Celestial State experts after having met the Superior Gods in the Demigod Burial,

Would he be stuck in the Celestial State forever, just like those Superior Gods?

That wasn’t the destiny Su Ping wanted!

Why would he want to be the king of a lake when he had seen the vast skies?

“I need to go to the Celestial Court and check the situation,” Su Ping said to Green Lady.

He didn’t need the legacy, but his pets could use it; he wouldn’t give it away to others.

“Okay, take care of yourself. We will take care of the store for you.” Green Lady nodded.

“Hey!”

Tang Ruyan walked out again and angrily said, “Keep a low profile when you’re out. And be careful. Don’t ever lead the charge. Take care of yourself and come back safely!”

Su Ping was silent for a moment; he then waved at her.

Tang Ruyan was slightly puzzled, but she walked toward him anyway.

Once she was closer, Su Ping instantly squeezed her check. “When did you become my teacher? Those were the exact words I said to you, right? You should be the one hearing that!”

Tang Ruyan instantly broke free. She rubbed her reddened face and glared at him. “Get the hell out of here!”

Su Ping smiled and turned around.

Joanna also walked out and reminded him, “Come back soon.”

Su Ping waved his hand and left the store.

Green Lady watched Su Ping disappear and then shook her head helplessly. She turned around and exclaimed, “Did he squeeze you that hard? Why is your entire face red?”

Tang Ruyan covered her face and said angrily, “He’s a jerk!”

…

Su Ping took to the skies after leaving the store. He had detected an aura that was quickly approaching the planet before he called his Senior Sister Ji.

“I was going to look for you. Did you finish your training?” Ji Xueqing approached the planet. Her senses could easily cover it; she soon located Su Ping and stepped out of the void.

Su Ping was surprised. “You were looking for me? Aren’t there still a couple of days to go?”

“Yes, but Master wanted to give you something, so that you’ll be safer during the trial.”

Ji Xueqing stared at Su Ping with thoughtful eyes. “Your aura seems to be…”

Su Ping had concealed his aura since he left the store; Ji Xueqing couldn’t detect the perfect paths inside his body without examining him thoroughly. In particular, he had hidden the aura of the perfect paths in the Illusory World, making it even harder to detect.

“I’ve gained a lot,” said Su Ping with a smile.

Ji Xueqing guessed that his gains were very likely high, considering how happy he was. After all, Su Ping wasn’t as happy when he learned the two amazing skills in her small world.

“Let’s go. Master has just recruited a new disciple.. He is now our junior brother; let’s go meet him,” said Ji Xueqing.
