Chapter 430: 429, Pandamen Chen Sheng_1
Su Yu and Sylvanas were flying ahead, followed closely by Keching leading the strong warriors of the Tivat Kingdom.
After all, Su Yu only had the strength of the Sanctuary, and Sylvanas was also injured in the [Netherworld Hall] instance, incapable of shaking off Keching and others. They could only fly while maintaining a defensive posture.
Both sides flew in peace for about ten minutes.
Just as Su Yu and his companion were about to leave the kingdom’s territorial waters, an ancient long stick suddenly stretched out from the sky not far in front of them.
Immediately afterwards, a hefty and innocent Pandaman leaning on the long stick jumped out of the void and blocked their path.
“Greetings adventurers and this undead lady.” The Pandaman made a bow towards them, displaying his humility and courtesy.
This Pandaman was wearing a gray unkempt robe, a brown conical hat with a hole on it, chewing a dogtail grass in his mouth, portraying a look of a humble fisher.
But Su Yu and Xi Wa didn’t dare underestimate this Pandaman at all.
Regardless of his shabby attire, the current Su Yu and his companion combined would certainly not be a match for him.
Thus, Su Yu and his partner had no choice but to slowly stop in the sky and return the courtesy to the Pandaman.
Keching was overjoyed when she saw this Pandaman!
She exclaimed happily, “Master Chen Sheng, you finally came?!”
Hearing Keching’s words, Su Yu and Sylvanas were both taken aback: “Chen Sheng? You are Chen Sheng?!”
“Chen Sheng” is a well-known name in the entire gaming world, and it is not inferior to the likes of [Xi Fan] and [Star-forged Dragon King]!
He is a top expert among the older generation of the Pandaman Empire, the founder of the [Martial Artist] profession, with a strength that has reached the seventh stage peak!
However, the elder Chen Sheng has been reclusive for a long time, his traces have long disappeared from the world, and there was even a rumor that he had passed away, but to their surprise, they met the man himself today!
The Pandaman smiled softly, “That’s right, it’s me, Chen Sheng.”
He looked at Keching and others behind Su Yu: “Sorry for being late, I had to prepare some small things.”
“Don’t be so polite, Master Chen Sheng!” Keching respectfully bowed to him and said excitedly, “Your presence itself is the greatest support for our Tivat Kingdom! On behalf of the citizens of the kingdom, I thank you for your arrival!”
Chen Sheng waved his hand, and with a glance at Su Yu, he got straight to the point: “This adventurer. While Walnut is not one of us, Pandamen and Tivat are closely connected neighbors. Could you let her go out of respect for me?”
“Of course, we will also offer compensation to Star Realm Cat as a ransom for Walnut.”
Chen Sheng’s tone was extremely modest, but he exuded an intimidating air of authority and respect.
Sylvanus also kept her distance from Su Yu, as if to indicate through her actions: this is your business, so I won’t get involved.
Having glanced at Chen Sheng, Su Yu also turned to look at Keching and the others.
He shrugged and said indifferently: “It’s not up to me, let Morning Star decide. After all, I am not the victim here.”
He asked Morning Star who was inside his pet space: “Morning Star, what do you say?”
Morning Star: “….”
Morning Star really didn’t know what to do at this point.
Of course, she wasn’t afraid of Keching alone, because considering Su Yu’s status, Keching wouldn’t dare to forcibly intervene with Su Yu.
However, now that the Pandaman has stepped in, especially such an elder! This sufficiently signifies the Pandaman’s stance.
Pandamen wouldn’t be afraid of the Goldfinch Empire. If they insist that Su Yu cannot take Walnut with him, it would be difficult for Su Yu to get away even if he could resurrect infinitely…
What should she do?
…
Just as Morning Star was caught up in her thoughts, Su Yu’s voice reached her ears:
“No worries, Morning Star, no matter what decision you make, I will support you. If you really insist on taking Walnut with us, not only the Pandamen Empire, even if it means going against the whole world, I will stand with you to the end!”
Having finished speaking, Su Yu felt there was something wrong with his words. His tone suddenly felt like a bossy CEO from romance novels. It seemed he needed to do some introspection.
But to his surprise, Morning Star really bought into it, she was deeply moved: “Nemesis, thank you!”
[Ding, [Star Realm Cat Morning Star] ‘s favorability towards you +10, favorability increased to “Enthusiasm”.]
Bracing herself, Morning Star jumped out of the pet space, squarely facing Chen Sheng.
“Master Chen Sheng, leaving aside the matter of ransom, let’s talk about Walnut.”
“During the Battle of Kaishi Town, Walnut almost killed me! Do you think I was wrong to seek revenge? If it were you, would you decide to take revenge?”
Chen Sheng pondered for a bit before slowly answering, “No, you are not wrong and neither is Walnut. As the head of the Hall of Reincarnation, it was her duty to prevent the Star Realm from invading the main plane.”
“Since Walnut is now in your hands, there’s not much to discuss. How about this?”
Chen Sheng reached into his bosom and quickly pulled out a red silk sachet embroidered with white flowers.
Opening the sachet, a gem with dazzling starlight jumped out from it. Chen Sheng held it in his fluffy paw: “I suggest trading this to spare Walnut’s life.”
“This is! [Eye of the Star Scar]!?” Morning Star stared intently at the gem in Chen Sheng’s hand, digging her sharp claws deep into Su Yu’s shoulders out of tension.
Su Yu winced in pain, taking a sharp intake of breath.
But he remained expressless, he could withstand this much pain.
Sylvanas glanced at him inquisition, as if asking what [Eye of the Star Scar] was.
Su Yu shook his head at her. He didn’t know either, as he wasn’t an omniscient god.
Su Yu whispered to Morning Star: “Morning Star, what is this [Eye of the Star Scar]? Is it valuable?”
Morning Star finally tore her gaze away from the gem and replied:
“[Eye of the Star Scar], this gem is especially important to our Star Realm Cat tribe. We have a total of 10 legendary cats in our tribe, but only my mom has reached the peak of legend and is expected to advance to the God Level. The rest of us, including myself, are virtually stuck at the threshold of the seventh stage. Can you guess what we are missing?”
“Could it be this [Eye of the Star Scar]?” Su Yu turned his head to look at the gem.
“That’s right, it’s this!” Morning Star’s voice was slightly trembling: “To be honest, I really want to take Walnut back and torment her for a while, but I can’t refuse this offer… Nemesis, do you think I should accept?”
“Like I said before, make your own decision.” Su Yu smiled.
Morning Star stood on Su Yu’s shoulder and thought for a while.
In the end, she made up her mind and said aloud: “Alright, Master Chen Sheng, I agree to exchange Walnut for the [Eye of the Star Scar]. However, you must also swear that the people of the Tivat Kingdom along with Walnut will not seek revenge against Nemesis and me because of this matter.”
“Rest assured, I will restrain them.” Seeing Morning Star agreed, Chen Sheng’s eyebrows relaxed. He took out a wine gourd and comfortably took a big sip.
