Chapter 321: The Special Guest at the Heart of All Spirits!

Chapter 321: The Special Guest at the Heart of All Spirits!

Su Ping stayed on Crescent Island for two whole days.

However, aside from his initial trial with his companion beast on the first day, there were no further opportunities to showcase his skills.

Aside from keeping abreast of the water disaster situation with Qin Er Long, he spent most of his time meeting various people, primarily from within the Legion, who were of a similar status to Zhao Deguang.

There were indeed many occasions when it was not appropriate to decline meetings.

Fortunately, those who had achieved such strength and status were generally level-headed, and none made any special demands of Su Ping.

At the same time, Su Ping received some good news.

Just after Qian Yi's battle, whether it was due to Xiao Qing's influence or the completion of Su Ping's spiritual realm breakthrough, which indirectly affected Qian Yi's soul contract, he finally managed to achieve a breakthrough.

He had reached the Commander Fourth Rank.

Although Xiao Qing's evolution resulted in a significant increase in rank, it wouldn't be too difficult for Qian Yi to catch up.

The little guy's previous rank advancement speed was already extraordinary.

On the first night, Qin Er Long also received news from above that the water disaster in the East Sea was receding, and the martial law could be slightly relaxed from the previous Level One Alert.

This not only relieved Qin Er Long but also Su Ping.

Although no one knew how the Ray Saint, whose face was never shown, had obtained and confirmed this information, no one questioned it, as a Holy Spirit Rank existence wouldn't joke about such matters.

After attending several gatherings on Crescent Island and occasionally slaying some remaining monsters attracted by the Ship Platform, Su Ping departed from Crescent Island.

Of course, aside from these events, the main reason for his departure was a phone call from Guan Qiushan, informing him that the required materials had been gathered.

These materials were not for the evolution of the Origami Figure, but for the Celestial Tomb, a matter of utmost importance.

However, this was not something that could be accomplished overnight, and the Origami Figure's evolution was proceeding step by step. The key was the Five Elements Array left by Xue Hongluan for the cultivation of the Five Elements Paper Body; the rest were manageable.

The message he received was regarding the materials given to him by the Green Demon Spring Ginseng during Xiao Qing's evolution a few days ago.

This included several Dragon Pattern Bamboo plants, as well as some resources for cultivating Mist Water Pine, Thorn Wolf, and Cloud Pattern Tree Python.

The materials requested by the Green Demon Spring Ginseng and the environment required for its cultivation were undoubtedly the most crucial.

Upon receiving the news, Su Ping didn't waste any time. He took Old Qin's flying vehicle and returned directly to the Heart of All Spirits.

"Xiao Ping, this is the Dragon Pattern Bamboo. There are twelve plants, but finding mature Commander Rank Dragon Pattern Bamboo is extremely difficult, so among these, ten are ordinary-rank seedlings, and two are only Elite Rank growing bodies!" Guan Qiushan led Su Ping to the resource storage room within the Wood Heart upon his return. Inside, Su Ping saw twelve Dragon Pattern Bamboo plants that had just been brought in, their consciousness still seemingly unclear.

Su Ping nodded; twelve plants were the minimum quantity requested by the Green Demon Spring Ginseng in the video call.

"These are thirty 20-year-old Wood Spirit Grass, pure Wood System resources."

Su Ping continued to nod.

"As for the Corpse-Feeding Earthworm, it requires a special environment. Do you want to open this container and inspect it yourself?" Guan Qiushan held a strange container the size of a suitcase.

Su Ping waved his hand, "No need. If you've checked it, I trust you."

"All other resources are ready, but this Cloud Water Lotus..."

Guan Qiushan's face turned grim.

It was evident that acquiring a Monarch Rank companion beast cub, especially a plant-type one, was extremely challenging, as it was a type of beast that beastmasters could easily contract.

Even with the financial resources of the Heart of All Spirits, it wasn't an easy task.

However, Su Ping wasn't concerned. He smiled slightly and said, "Didn't I mention this on the phone? Uncle Guan, don't worry. I've already taken care of the Cloud Water Lotus."

If Su Ping hadn't secured the Cloud Water Lotus, he wouldn't have rushed back from Crescent Island after gathering the other materials.

These days, Su Ping and Qin Er Long's interactions weren't idle chatter.

In the entire Dragon Country, who could match President Qin and the Sage Sang in their mastery of plant-based companion beasts?

As expected, when Su Ping spoke, President Qin directly brought out this item from the Beastmaster Association's inventory.

Of course, Su Ping didn't just take it for free.

Although President Qin didn't ask for money, Su Ping did trade some materials and resources, which was a common way for advanced beastmasters to exchange goods in the beastmaster world.

Old Qin didn't mind, but Su Ping also felt it was inappropriate to take advantage.

Of course, the Cloud Water Lotus was also in its juvenile form and was currently at the peak of the Elite rank.

However, when Green Demon Spring Ginseng gave instructions before, there were no specific requirements, and Su Ping didn't pay much attention to such conditions. Although he wanted to do his best, it was nearly impossible to capture a wild, fully obedient Monarch-rank adult Cloud Water Lotus.

Plant-based companion beasts are not just resources; they are living beings with self-awareness and wisdom.

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Guan. These are important. You go ahead with your work, and I'll call you if I need anything."

After giving instructions and bidding farewell to Uncle Guan, Su Ping placed the materials into his beast taming space and then went to the wood-hearted forest in his backyard.

With a thought, Xiao Qing's figure appeared beside him.

"Xiao Qing, call Elder Green Demon Spring Ginseng here."

Xiao Qing, whose body swayed, nodded. After completing her evolution, her connection with Green Demon Spring Ginseng had deepened, and she could naturally sense that Green Demon Spring Ginseng was inside the Heart of All Spirits.

As expected, soon, a dark green shadow appeared.

"Elder Green Demon Spring Ginseng, have you chosen a place to stay these past few days? Where should we put these resources and plant-based companion beasts?"

Green Demon Spring Ginseng casually turned his head, and then his tendril directly pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

Su Ping was startled and then smiled.

"You want to stay in the Wood Heart? Perfect. The residence of the Forest Wolf is also being relocated. I haven't decided what to do with the small forest of the Forest Wolf. If you don't mind, you can stay here temporarily. Of course, I will rearrange it."

Green Demon Spring Ginseng's tendril continued to wave, seemingly unconcerned.

Su Ping also breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to see how Green Demon Spring Ginseng wanted him to arrange things, even the layout, according to the fixed pattern set by Green Demon Spring Ginseng. What was so special and helpful about this arrangement? Su Ping exhaled, thinking that if he moved the Forest Wolf to the Earth Heart to live, it would indeed free up a large area in the Wood Heart.

However, even for laboratory and daily life, such a large piece of land was unnecessary.

Moreover, Su Ping had previously planned a series of venues for his personal use, such as fitness and entertainment, but even those didn't require such a large area.

Now, he finally had a place for them.

Su Ping began preparing for the grand task of dismantling his house.

However, he didn't forget about the important task he had promised.

Su Ping had mentioned that he wanted to cultivate and evolve companion beasts with Li Ping, focusing on Mist Water Pine. He was about to start this project.

At the same time, he needed to pay extra attention to Xiao Wu Ya's ancestral evolution, as it was the only task specifically assigned to him by Ye Zhou.

Indeed, ancestral evolution had great potential and possibilities.

Thinking of this, Su Ping adjusted his schedule slightly, feeling that time had become tight again, and his daily routine had become more regular.

However, just as Su Ping was about to take action, a rather special visitor arrived at the entrance of the Heart of All Spirits.

A solitary figure, about one meter and twenty-three centimeters tall, with red lips and white teeth like a doll, strolled in, curious and looking around.

The retired officer Lu Heng, now the security manager and companion beast trainer at the Wanling Heart, noticed a child peeking curiously at the entrance. He frowned slightly and quickly approached the child.

"Little one, where did you come from? Where are your parents?"

The child, accustomed to such addresses, showed no surprise.

In his childlike voice, he replied, "My parents went away by boat, and they haven't returned yet. The neighbors said they went very far away, and they left from here by boat. I want to go find them too..."

Lu Heng's heart stirred at the child's innocent voice and expression. He glanced towards the east.

He was well aware of the recent water disasters, and he knew that some beastmasters from the Jianghai region had gone hunting. There had been casualties in the battles, though not many.

The child's words seemed to confirm that his parents might have sacrificed themselves in the recent water disaster. Looking at the child, who was clearly from a well-off family, Lu Heng managed a smile.

"If your parents come back and find you missing, they'll be very sad..."

"But I don't have a home anymore..."

"Where is your home?" Lu Heng asked, furrowing his brows.

The child's eyes remained calm, and he innocently replied, "Our lease expired, and the landlord said he wouldn't let us stay if we didn't pay the rent."

Renting a house? Lu Heng was slightly taken aback. Those who could participate in the hunting on Crescent Island should be quite powerful. Beastmasters on the official registry were usually wealthy; why would they rent a house?

However, he didn't think much of it. The child before him was indeed very convincing, showing no signs of lying.

Lu Heng found himself believing the child without realizing it. After a moment's thought, he nodded.

"Alright, if you have nowhere to go for now, you can stay here temporarily. But remember, no mischief, and no running around."

Common sense told Lu Heng that it would be best to inform the civil law enforcement officers at the Law Enforcement Bureau in such situations. But for some reason, when he saw the child's eyes, clear as glass, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

If sent to the Law Enforcement Bureau, the child would likely end up in an orphanage.

And that would be the end of the child's innocence.

"But I can't decide this on my own. I should inform Manager Guan. Come with me..."

The child followed Lu Heng to Guan Qiushan, who had just left Su Ping's place.

Seeing the situation, Guan Qiushan couldn't help but feel helpless.

"Don't worry, Manager Guan. I'll cover this kid's expenses from my salary!" Lu Heng quickly assured him.

But Guan Qiushan sighed, "Forget it. Su Ping has a lot on his plate. Let's not bother him with this minor issue. There are plenty of vacant rooms in the Yunxin Heart, and there are also unused employee dormitories. We can accommodate the child there for now. I'll inform Su Ping when he has time."

"Okay!"

"Thank you, Uncle!"

The child's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and Guan Qiushan's mood improved as well.

However, neither of them seemed to realize that they had overlooked something. A child of that age should already be in school. The school should have been looking for the child.

Both of them seemed to have forgotten this detail until they left the child in a single suite at the Yunxin Heart. The child clicked his tongue in satisfaction, lay down on the soft bed, and nodded approvingly, muttering to himself out of habit:

"Not bad, this place is quite nice. This little guy has done a good job. Perfect timing, as the battle with those two beasts depleted a lot of my origin power, and the big fish was injured. I'll rest and recover here. I can also look into the Dream Heart matter.

Speaking of which, did that Ghost Saint tell this kid anything? Why haven't I received any news?"
