Chapter 163: The Second Generation is Me?
Chapter 163: The Second Generation is Me?
The silent night gradually settled into tranquility.
Su Ping lay on the hospital bed.
Lin Lei and Dong Muchun did not disturb him further but instead posted guards outside the room.
Gazing at the white ceiling, Su Ping's emotions slowly calmed.
At this moment, Su Ping finally understood.
At any time, danger and safety are relative.
In this Beastmaster Society where Beastmasters are extremely powerful, no matter what, personal strength is the most crucial.
One could only say that it was fortunate that the little paper man, Qian Yi, had just completed his evolution today.
Otherwise, it would have been a perilous situation.
Unless he had noticed something amiss at the first moment and didn't get off the car, as soon as he stepped out of the vehicle, the opponent would have summoned their pet beast in front of him, and the outcome would have been certain death.
Even now, it was still the case.
Strength!
Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, exhaling softly, and he could even guess that even if Mu Yu and the others were captured, it would be impossible to make them pay any price.
In the past half a year, he had indeed accumulated a lot of connections. Even in Jianghai, he could walk with his head held high.
However, when it came to certain matters, these connections were of no use.
I must work harder! Su Ping sighed.
As his abilities and status improved, the dangers he might face would also increase.
Only by enhancing his strength could he stand firm and unyielding at all times.
However, just as Su Ping secretly made up his mind, a faint blue light suddenly appeared on the ceiling.
Like a sudden ghost fire, it startled Su Ping, and he froze.
Often, these eerie things represented a type of pet beast: a Necromancer!
The Necromancer that Su Ping had recently encountered seemed to be related only to Mu Yu, and there probably wasn't anyone else, right? But wasn't Mu Yu already captured?
Could this old man have a backup plan? How could he get past Dong Muchun and Lin Lei's watch and come in directly in this situation?
Su Ping didn't even need to think; he casually picked up something nearby and threw it out:
"Help!"
Amidst the cold blue flames, a voice with a hint of laughter sounded: "Little guy, you're quite alert, but don't be too hasty."
This voice was extremely smooth, nothing like Mu Yu's previous voice.
Su Ping was taken aback.
The next moment, the cold blue flames slowly transformed into a figure.
Blue flames surrounded the figure, like a legendary wandering soul.
However, it also illuminated the figure.
The man appeared extremely young, and from Su Ping's perspective, he seemed to be in his twenties at most.
Yet, within those eyes that seemed to burn with blue flames, there was a sense of weariness that didn't match his age.
The man looked at Su Ping, lying motionless on the bed, and his body finally solidified from its ethereal state. He nodded in satisfaction as he sized up Su Ping: "Not bad, little guy! You look a bit like me when I was young!"
Su Ping gave this suddenly appearing mysterious man a suspicious glance.
Who was this person? And when was he young?
"Who are you? Are you Charles?"
"Your Excellency? Charles?"
The man was taken aback at the title, then grinned: "Haha, I'm not that ghostly fellow. Just call me Cold Grandpa, and rest assured. With that expression, if I had any ideas about you, you'd be long gone, little guy."
The man conjured a blue flame, illuminating the entire room.
Su Ping breathed a long sigh of relief.
Indeed, at the first moment, Su Ping realized that this unexpected visitor was none other than the mysterious and powerful Necromancer 'Charles Lee' mentioned in Mu Yu's diary.
He could guess that Mu Yu's backer was very likely this idol of his.
And the opponent's eagerness to kill him was probably related to the Falcon Continent. So, this mysterious and powerful Charles might have taken action himself!
But if it wasn't him, who else could possess such strength, breaking through Lin Lei and Dong Muchun's watchful defense, arriving here unnoticed?
However, it was clear that the man before him had no intention of answering that question.
Instead, he frowned: "Little guy, was your attack related to Charles? What happened?"
Su Ping nodded:
"It's just my guess, but the ones who attacked me should be Mu Yu and those from the Falcon Continent."
"Tell me the whole story!"
The man glanced at Su Ping.
But Su Ping was unconcerned, showing no emotional reaction.
He knew that from his actions and words, there was no response outside, indicating that facing the opponent, he was like a fish on a chopping block.
And it was evident that this was a formidable figure.
Su Ping didn't hate himself for being too weak; instead, he thought it was pointless to dwell on it.
How old was he? The old monsters involved in this incident were much older, and thinking about it was a waste of time.
If they were of the same age, Su Ping could have Qian Yi break their teeth.
His only curiosity now was what the heck was hanging on his neck.
This old thing, Fengdu Sword King, who had been dead for who knows how many years, where did he get this broken thing?
Could it have mysteriously caused such a big stir? At this moment, Su Ping only wanted to do one thing: quickly find a sewer and throw away the broken thing on his neck.
He really disliked troubles beyond his control.
So, facing this man who called himself 'Cold Grandpa', Su Ping didn't hide anything.
He repeated what he had told Dong Muchun and Lin Lei.
Despite Su Ping's eagerness to get rid of the trouble, he refrained from mentioning the matter of the Heavenly Tomb Sword Seal, not knowing who his opponent was.
However, what Su Ping didn't expect was that Lord Leng, after hearing the entire story, would smile and say, "Little one, I know you're hiding something. But in this world, the person you can trust the most, aside from your father, is me!"
Su Ping was taken aback and hadn't fully processed the situation.
The man before him continued, "So, regarding the Heavenly Tomb and the Sword Seal..."
"..."
Su Ping looked at the man before him, momentarily at a loss for words.
"Who exactly are you?"
...
Meanwhile, back at the Law Enforcement Bureau in Linzhou, the interrogation had come to a standstill.
Without evidence, a timeframe for the crime, or even the use of the Trial Mirror, a spiritual pressure pet, there was no progress.
Moreover, with Qin Chuan as a witness, from every angle, it seemed there was no room for further questioning.
Of course, the most crucial factor was the suspect's identity.
It was a delicate situation.
After all, if they couldn't apprehend the suspect, it was likely to cause international disputes, and who could bear that responsibility? No one dared to claim they could.
Thus, the entire situation was at a stalemate.
Qin Erlong finally couldn't hold back and sighed, "Old Liu, let Qin Chuan go. Rest assured, I'll provide an explanation to you and Su Ping regarding this matter."
Liu Fuhai glanced at Qin Erlong, opened his mouth, and finally said, "Alright. Qin Chuan probably doesn't know about this either."
Qin Erlong heaved a slight sigh of relief, but he felt helpless. In fact, he could sense the underlying message in his old friend's words.
If Qin Chuan knew about this and was pretending, or even if he was involved, Liu Fuhai wouldn't let it go.
Indeed, that was the case.
Liu Fuhai's gaze remained calm. So what if Qin Erlong was stronger than him? So what if he had a woman backing him?
The upper echelons of the Dragon Kingdom were a tangled web! There were those even more powerful than the Qin family.
In this matter, Liu Fuhai had the upper hand, and the young man was in the right!
He was willing to put his reputation on the line.
Daring to use mechanical weapons within the Dragon Kingdom, even if it was in the suburbs and caused no additional casualties, if Liu Fuhai wanted to expose this, not only would Qin Erlong be affected, but the Demon City's leader would also face consequences! The Academy was already in a precarious position, and many would be eager to speak ill of them at this time.
Even if that person wanted to protect them, it wouldn't be easy.
Just then, suddenly, the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau, Qu Ming, furrowed his brows and answered a call.
Before he could finish the call, the door to the interrogation monitoring room was pushed open from the outside.
Everyone present frowned, turning to the newcomer.
They had specifically instructed that no one was to enter at this time.
What was Director Qu Ming doing?
Qu Ming was also perplexed.
At that moment, someone had barged into the front desk of the Law Enforcement Bureau.
Who would dare to intrude upon the Law Enforcement Bureau?
What was happening in Linzhou? In just one night, so many incomprehensible events had transpired.
Most importantly, at that moment, two esteemed individuals were present.
"Who are you? How dare you barge in here?"
The newcomer's face was cold and indifferent, even a bit wooden, appearing to be in his thirties or forties. There was not a hint of emotional fluctuation.
He merely scanned the room calmly.
Including Qin Chuan, who had just exited the interrogation room with a displeased expression.
Then, he took out a small notebook from his pocket:
"Is this related to the incident involving Honorary Major Su Ping?"
Everyone present was stunned by his words.
Had someone from the Legion come? But even if it was the Legion, wouldn't they be so brazen?
They had just received a call from Zhao Deguang, informing them that the entire Moon Wolf Company of the War Wolf A Squad had entered Linzhou.
However, they hadn't heard anything about the Legion's involvement in the investigation.
Despite this, the few people present nodded at the unfamiliar man before them.
It was reasonable for someone from the Legion to come, as Su Ping did have a Legion identity, which was indisputable.
Although the man's entrance wasn't particularly polite, they acknowledged his presence.
"By the orders of the Chief, until his personal arrival, all involved parties and suspects are not to leave. Violators will be dealt with without mercy!"
"Violators will be dealt with without mercy!" These six words left everyone stunned. This incident was indeed significant, but who would dare to utter such words at this moment?
What was this guy thinking?
However, at that very moment, the emblem on the small notebook and the man's special identity shocked everyone.
【Heaven Splitter Squadron Commander - Xing Chen】
That's right, just this identity alone seemed to indicate he was merely a pilot.
Among those present, only Qin Chuan had limited knowledge in this regard, while the others understood much more.
Typically, passenger planes, especially those in the Dragon Kingdom, did have weapons, but they were primarily for defense against airborne pet beasts.
However, these aircraft with unique names possess various capabilities.
Perhaps they are even pure mechanical pet beasts in their own right.
More importantly, aircraft with unique names are not used as passenger planes.
Instead, they are exclusively dedicated to serving a specific entity.
In other words, the arrival of such individuals represents the backing of the entity they serve.
Qin Erlong, on the other hand, is all too familiar with this.
Previously, he had personally witnessed the pilot of the 'Ascend Cloud Squadron' who served his mother-in-law.
However, after learning this, the few people present became even more unresponsive.
(Chapter End)
"If he knew that this broken thing would cause so much trouble, he would never have taken it from Dong Muchun's hands.
Damn Fengdu Sword King Yu Liangqing, he turned his will into a thousand-to-one deal, is it necessary?!
"Tianmu, you should know what it is. In ancient times, Tianmu already existed, but in fact, the discovered Tianmu is not the only one!"
Huh?!
Su Ping was indeed interested.
"The location of Tianmu actually has four. The one north of us is just one of them. The other three are scattered around the world!
Near the location of Tianmu, the birth rate and probability of Necromancer pets far surpasses that of other places by a thousand times! Throughout history, the Northern Necromancer disasters have always existed, but after the development of pets and large-scale mechanical weapons, as well as the emergence of a legendary figure, the threat was finally eradicated!
It was during that time that the main body of Tianmu was discovered in Longguo.
It was a huge tomb, and it was also learned that there were three other identical places in the world, but each tomb had a different marker.
The tomb in the Mummy Kingdom was a white bone, the one in the Eagle Kingdom was a flame, and the one near the Lion Kingdom of the Never-setting Empire was a crown."
Cold Grandpa smiled and continued, "Now, you should also know what pattern is on the tomb monument north of Longguo, right?"
"A sword?"
Su Ping looked at the so-called Tianmu Sword Seal, feeling a bit numb.
At this moment, he finally understood why Mu Yu attacked so frantically when he saw this thing!
However, this time, Su Ping even felt relieved.
He was relieved that Mu Yu was so impatient! Instead of taking things slowly! What was he thinking? It was almost like a child holding gold in a bustling city or lighting a lantern in a toilet.
In fact, Su Ping obviously didn't know that at first, even Mu Yu himself didn't think of it and acted with great skepticism.
Until he learned from Qin Chuan's mouth that Su Ping had indeed come into contact with a secret realm recently, Mu Yu was finally able to confirm that this was the Tianmu Sword Seal itself.
He glanced at Cold Grandpa with a slightly twitching face:
"Cold Grandpa, what's inside Tianmu?"
Cold Grandpa smiled:
"I don't know either. In the world, only the people of Eagle Kingdom have found the key and successfully opened their Tianmu, which is located in the Great Rift Valley. But from their eagerness to search for the remaining Tianmu keys, and the content of their search is beyond imagination!
Longguo is also preparing for the future entry into Tianmu, such as some special Beastmaster forces, but these have nothing to do with you."
Huh?
Su Ping was slightly startled, and before he could react, Cold Grandpa continued:
"So now, little one, what do you plan to do?"
What to do? Su Ping immediately understood that Cold Grandpa was asking about the ownership of the extraordinary Tianmu Sword Seal.
Su Ping was very sensible and spoke directly:
"I want to hand over the Sword Seal to the country!"
At this moment, Su Ping felt a holy light shining upon him.
Cold Grandpa patted Su Ping's shoulder, looking like a teachable young man:
"Good boy, but you don't have to be so righteous. The country won't mistreat you, and it's not like you can keep this thing anyway."
Su Ping knew he couldn't keep it, and if he could, he wouldn't have given it up so easily!
Nonsense, is this Tianmu thing more important than his life?
The attack had already exceeded his expectations, and he didn't know what would happen if it happened again. As for what's inside Tianmu, Su Ping wasn't particularly interested, and even if he was, it wasn't worth risking his life.
It's better to improve himself, and once his identity and status are elevated, he'll naturally know everything.
Cold Grandpa smiled after playing with the Tianmu Sword Seal, and it disappeared from his hand.
He glanced at the eager Su Ping and said, "Don't worry, when the time comes, you can make any request, but for now, you shouldn't be in a hurry, right? If you're not, why not go with me to continue doing something important?"
"What important thing?"
Su Ping couldn't think of anything more important than bargaining.
At this moment, Cold Grandpa's face bloomed with a bright smile:
"Don't you want to see the culprit?"
Su Ping's eyes lit up.
He had been staying in the hospital because he was afraid these guys might have other tricks up their sleeves.
But now, with Cold Grandpa here, he wasn't afraid of anything.
However, he slightly frowned and sighed, "Grandpa, since they dared to make a move, they must have anticipated some situations, and probably don't have any evidence, right? Even if we go, what can we do to them? After all, they are from Eagle Kingdom..."
Cold Grandpa glanced at this guy who was full of eyes and said disdainfully:
"You little one, are you trying to test me? Rest assured, little one, do you know what annoys me the most about some old things?"
Su Ping blinked and shook his head.
"The Ghost Saint only cares about results, never minding the process or rules."
After speaking, a blue light bloomed.
Cold Grandpa took a step forward.
Su Ping stood in place, blinking.
Huh?
Ghost Saint?
Damn!
Could it be that the second generation is me?!
