Chapter 55: Settling Matter’s.
Seeing as a huge shadow suddenly blocked off the moon’s light, The demons all gazed up and we’re left stunned at the sight of the huge 30 meter Dark wyvern approaching them.
" Everyone! the masters coming!" One by one the demons began raising the alarm and they quickly cleared the area.
After some inquiries, they realized that the object that had actually knocked some of them flying several days before was Su Ping who was still learning how to fly.
Seeing the demons fleeing in fear of not wanting to be sent flying, Su Ping had an awkward look on his face, but since he was pressed on time, he didn’t bother addressing them, instead he landed on the ground and shifted back to his draconian form.
He approached a dim blood red orb but strangely the summoning orb was far smaller than he expected, it was basically 10 times smaller than the white summoning orb he had once used.
" Hmm..." Su Ping reached towards the orb but.
" Master! What are you doing!" Su Ping stiffened when he heard Zhen Qi’s hurried voice from behind him.
" Forgive my rudeness master but, are you really planning on accepting that weak summons." Zhen Qi apologized for her sudden outburst but still had a look of contempt on her face as she stared at the small dimming red orb the size of a marble.
" A weak looking summoning orb means that the summoner must not have much to offer, and looking at that little thing, I don’t think anything they’re willing to offer would be worth it. If your really planning on doing something in the physical plain, why not send a lower level demon instead–"
" Zhen Qi..." Su Ping said in a low tone causing her to tremble before lowering her head.
" I’m sorry master, I didn’t mean to disregard your decision but..." Her voice dropped to a feeble whisper.
Su Ping sighed before walking over to her and pulling her into his embrace. " I understand that you only spoke with my interest at heart but, My reason for going to the physical plain has nothing to do with how much the summoner can offer."
Zhen Qi trembled in his arms, raising her head upwards only for Su Ping to see the worry in her eyes. It was obvious his words unsettled her, after all, if he wasn’t going for rewards, it meant he wanted to do something in the physical plains, she was worried he might get into trouble at this rate.
She had utmost faith in her master but still, knowing he tended to get into fights, she was worried he might pick a fight he wouldn’t be able to handle, after all, though she didn’t see the reason others desired to go to the physical plain, she had to admit that it was not weaker than the abyss in terms of strong individuals.
" Then please let me come with yo–" Zhen Qi suggested.
" No." Su Ping flat out denied her proposal.
" Why not?!" She asked, almost sounding hysterical.
Su Ping wrapped his hands around her head, pulling her closer towards his chest while caressing her hair. As if trying to calm her down. " I know you hate to hear this but, you’d only act as a distraction. I’m afraid with you there, I’d only attract more eyes."
Zhen Qi’s body trembled at his words. Hearing that her presence there would only cause him problems made her heart broken but she understood that he was right.
She was now a Succubus and a Lvl 2 rare tier one at that, even if she hid her appearance, just her presence would be able to stir up the desires of those around her.
Humans were not as strong or as talented as demons, even if there were other races who might be born as powerful Lvl 1 units, she knew the majority had to be weak Lvl 1 units, with her presence there, Su Ping would have to worry more about drowning in a wave of lustful fools.
Zhen Qi clenched her palms, her body trembling while she gnashed her fangs as if trying to agree to something she desperately didn’t want to say.
" Then at least take one of the others with you! Even if it’s one of us, I’m sure the others would want that at least." She said with pleading eyes.
" Fine, but if they aren’t here soon then I might just leave without them." Su Ping stole a glance at the dimming summoning orb before saying.
" Say no more." Zhen Qi instantly shot into the sky before vanishing in the blink of an eye, to Su Ping’s surprise he saw her flying back moments later, at the same time, someone else was speeding forward towards him on the ground at an incredible speed so fast that a large dust storm could be seen behind her.
" Master!" Ming Yao fell into Su Ping’s arms the instant she arrived. " Master, please let me come with you." She said, embracing him tightly, well one would rather say that she had latched on to him so tight that Su Ping felt that if it was a Lvl 1 demon, they might’ve been crushed to meat paste by now. even a common Lvl 2 unit might’ve broken a few bones.
" Alright, let’s go." Su Ping said while reaching towards the red summoning orb.
" Sister Ming Yao, you better not let a single scratch get on the master unless I won’t forgive you!" Zhao Qi glared at Ming Yao.
Ming Yao was surprised because this was the first time Zhen Qi actually refered to her as sister. She nodded solemnly to Zhen Qi, her meaning clear, she would rather die than let that happen.
Zhen Qi normally disliked Ming Yao, with her being one of Su Pings favourites and his first subordinate as well as first direct subordinate, even then, she still didn’t deny that besides her, Ming Yao was the strongest direct subordinate after her.
The strongest was naturally Li Rao but she was still stuck in the Abyssal Blood Tree grove and wouldn’t even leave if asked with her guarding her clans ancestral lands and all.
