午夜想想爱

The Chief Elder gazed at Su Ping. “I don’t know how you made your way into our star but since you can, I have a favor to ask. Please help me deliver a letter to the Heaven Master of your race.”

“A letter?”

Su Ping did not know what to do.

He didn’t know any Heaven Masters. It was just an explanation that the Golden Crows came up with by themselves. “Well...”

Before Su Ping could refuse, the Chief Elder produced a ball of golden flames that had no temperature at all, but Su Ping was convinced that the flames could burn anything and everything

The fireball flew to Su Ping as the Chief Elder explained, “This letter can only be opened by a true god. I hope you can help me deliver the letter.”

“But...”

Su Ping wanted to say that he was not acquainted with any Heaven Master to turn down the job, but he didn’t think the Chief Elder would believe it. With a bitter smile, Su Ping said, “Chief Elder, is this letter important and urgent? I don’t want to lose it and endanger any of your dealings!”

The Chief Elder smiled. “It’s okay. I’m just writing about a minor matter. It is more like a greeting. It would be fine even if you lose it; although, I don’t think that would ever happen. After all, I don’t think I could kill you, let alone other creatures. I think the only ones able to threaten your life are the Heaven Masters...”

The Chief Elder gave Su Ping a meaningful glance.

Losing the letter?

The Chief Elder would never believe such a thing. Su Ping’s revivals were strange and the Chief Elder believed it was proof of the Heaven Master’s hand. The Chief Elder was convinced that the Heaven Master would assist Su Ping on his way back!

“Well...”

Since the Chief Elder had said so, Su Ping could only accept the job.

He was glad to know that the letter was not about a critical matter. Anyway, it was impossible for him to deliver it since he had no idea what a Heaven Master was.

The ball of flames flickered and then submerged into Su Ping’s forehead.

“Mr. Su, I will see you out,” the Chief Elder said after Su Ping took the letter.

Su Ping nodded.

Diqiong had been standing by their side quietly. As Su Ping was about to leave, Diqiong called him abruptly. “Hey!”

Su Ping gave Diqiong an inquiring look.

Diqiong worked up the courage and asked, “Is the world outside... interesting?”

Su Ping was surprised by that question. “What do you mean? If you want to know about the food and drinks, I think they’re fine. You can have tasty food and you can watch some TV if you get bored, or play some games. If that cannot make you feel interested, you can also go on adventures... Of course, if you’re the one going on adventures, I think you would only force everyone around you to experience adventures...”

Diqiong said nothing.

The Chief Elder heaved a sigh and said to Diqiong. “It is time for us to leave. Qiong’er, we’ll be able to leave the star one day. That day will come when you become more powerful than me...”

Diqiong looked at the Chief Elder. Diqiong had been hearing that since it was a baby.

More powerful than the Chief Elder?

The Chief Elder’s life was longer than anyone could imagine. Diqiong just knew that the Chief Elder was one of the earliest guards of their first ancestor. To become more powerful than the Chief Elder was something too far in the distance from Diqiong’s point of view.

Su Ping realized how eager Diqiong was to go out. He followed the Chief Elder’s lead and advised Diqiong, “Yes, cultivate well if you want to get out and explore. The world outside is dangerous.”

Su Ping heaved an inward sigh.

If he could sign a contract with a Star Rank Creature, he swore he would get the bird to leave with him!

Unfortunately, he wasn’t strong enough!

Maybe he could try that when he became strong enough in the future.

Su Ping was cheered up by this.

The glow in Diqiong’s eyes dimmed down, then merely snorted as a reply. “I might be able to take you out for a trip if I can come back here sometime in the future,” Su Ping said. He was paving a way for his future endeavors, and he also wanted to see how the Golden Crows would react to that.

Upon hearing that proposal, the Chief Elder narrowed its eyes to hide the glint of coldness but its voice pitch did get lower. “Mr. Su, it is time for you to leave!” Diqiong wanted to say something to Su Ping but the latter had already been teleported away.

“Qiong’er, work hard. The world outside is dangerous. The human has a mysterious background and he’s able to bypass our first ancestor’s formation. I don’t know how many peaceful days are left for us!”

The Chief Elder hovered in the air. It gave Diqiong a solemn look and then flew away.

Diqiong watched as the Chief Elder vanished from its sight, lingering on the spot for a while. Diqiong remained quiet for a long time.

“So hot!”

Su Ping was panting. Once again, hot air was surrounding him. He felt he was soaking in boiling water.

Su Ping looked around and saw nothing but redness in his eyes.

That was a deserted land.

The Chief Elder appeared and asked Su Ping, “Mr. Su, can you go back from here?”

Su ping looked around; Diqiong was no longer present. The Chief Elder must have teleported him away so that he couldn’t trick Diqiong.

It was obvious. If he wanted to trick that bird into going away with him, he first had to find a way to deal with the Chief Elder.

Su Ping shook his head; that was a worry for another day. “Yes. Chief Elder, thank you for your help. I will never forget about the Golden Crow’s kindness!”

The Chief Elder adopted a softer attitude with Su Ping. “Please send our regards to your Heaven Master.”

Su Ping nodded with a forced smile.

There was nothing left for them to talk about after saying their goodbyes. Su Ping didn’t want to continue with that awkwardness. So, he said to the system in his mind, “Time to go.”

“Are you sure? You still have eight hours, 42 minutes and 21 seconds left.” “Yes, I am sure.”

Su Ping nodded.

He had been staying here for over half a month. He wouldn’t stay for another eight hours if there was nothing to be gained.

The environment would no longer refine his body. The moment Su Ping confirmed, a swirl appeared behind him and a strong force pulled him inside.

That swirl made the Chief Elder widen its eyes. If it hadn’t been there to witness the process, the Chief Elder wouldn’t have believed that Su Ping’s return method was that simple and rough!

He was teleported away!

But the Celestial Star was closed!

No teleportation was allowed. No energy nor force could shatter that rule!

And yet, a teleportation was happening right in front of its eyes.

The Chief Elder even began to wonder if their formation was still working.

“See you, Chief Elder.” Su Ping waved at the crow.

The Chief Elder came back to its senses and saw Su Ping disappearing within that swirl. Before the swirl was dispersed, the Chief Elder reacted fast and sent a golden flame inside the swirl.

“Hmm!”

All of a sudden, the Chief Elder heard a snort that came out of nowhere. The probing flame flickered away and vanished.

le

The Chief Elder was appalled.

“I can’t believe it...”

The Chief Elder sounded terrified.

...

Longjiang Base City.

Pixie Pet Store.

Whoosh!

The swirl spat Su Ping out.

Phew!

Su Ping felt he had been thrown into a deadly cold planet, but he soon adjusted himself.

He looked around and was happy to see the store.

He was back!

Finally, he was safe home after his trip to a top-level cultivation site!

“Little Skeleton...”

Su Ping’s eyes glowed as he thought of the Little Skeleton. Without further ado, he was ready to go to the test room.

Right then, Joanna went into the pet room.

Su Ping was standing there, stark naked. The first instinct was to look away but Joanna held the urge and forced herself to stay calm as she stared right at him. “Finally, you’re back. I cannot believe you were gone for so long

again!”

Su Ping was wondering. “So, what is going on?”

He dug out some clothes from his storage space and put them on.

His clothes had been burnt off on the Celestial Star. Even a treasured artifact would be destroyed in that environment, not to mention his clothes.

“I think something serious has happened. Many people have come to the store to find you, including your sister and parents,” Joanna said.

Su Ping was startled. “They were here? What happened?”
