Chapter 695: Chapter 313: The Jade Demon Wolf Spirit! Evolution Complete!
“Hmm? You’re here?”
Su Ping answered the call that had just connected. Before Dong Muyun could speak, he asked eagerly.
“Of course! When Young Master Su gives an order, we naturally hurry. My grandfather and I are right outside the Heart of Woods!”
“Alright. You and your senior please wait a moment; I’ll come and get you.”
After hanging up, Su Ping spoke to Biyao Chunshen, who didn’t seem to mind. Its body then transformed into an ordinary-looking tree root and settled on the table, showing no intention of leaving. Clearly, it had to keep a constant watch over Xiao Qing’s Evolution.
Although Su Ping didn’t want to leave either, Xiao Qing’s Light of Evolution had just begun to shine. It would probably take some time before the Evolution was complete.
If Dong Muyun had come alone, it would have been one thing. But a senior from the Dong Family was also present. It would be impolite not to greet them properly.
Moreover, Dong Muyun had brought the Dong Family’s Mirror Saint!
This was the first time Su Ping had seen a Spirit Saint Level Artifact Pet Beast.
It was impossible not to be curious.
Artifact Pet Beasts weren’t hard to come by; for instance, the Rotten Sword was one Su Ping encountered frequently. However, those that reached a high Level were extremely rare.
Perhaps this was why, despite the Dong Family suffering setbacks in the past, the Mirror Saint had always remained. The birth and growth of such a being were indeed precious.
“This is my grandfather, Dong Lingxuan, the current Head of the Dong Family. Grandfather, this is Su Ping.”
Although Dong Muyun had some previous unpleasantness with her family, she didn’t show it now. Or perhaps, the internal affairs of a large family were inherently complex.
He was a typical elder, with a stern expression and meticulously combed, salt-and-pepper hair. One glance told you this was undoubtedly a scrupulous man.
“Hello, Senior Dong. I’ve long admired your reputation!”
Truth be told, the Dong Family had wanted to contact him several times before, but it never materialized as he hadn’t expressed a clear stance. Now, he was finally meeting the one in charge.
Su Ping extended his hand. In response to Su Ping’s greeting, the elder’s severe expression vanished completely, replaced by a warm, kind smile.
“Hehe, I should be the one admiring your reputation,” the elder chuckled. “Muyun told me some time ago about a remarkable Genius Breeder emerging in our Jianghai Forest Province. I’ve long been eager to see what kind of brilliant young man could earn such praise from Xiao Yun.”
“I just didn’t expect to see you on television first…”
“You flatter me, Senior Dong…”
“Far from it. It’s us old folks who should feel ashamed…”
The exchange of pleasantries between them was quite harmonious. Regardless of Su Ping’s true impression of the Dong Family, his outward courtesy was impeccable.
The Dong Family Head was no different.
Dong Muyun wasn’t surprised. She had rarely, if ever, seen such a radiant smile on her grandfather’s face, especially when facing someone her age. But the Su Ping before her was definitely not to be treated as a mere junior. As long as one was powerful enough, everyone they encountered seemed to be a good person.
After a few more pleasantries, Su Ping got straight to the point,
“Senior Dong, about the Mirror Saint…”
“I’m here!”
A clear, sweet, and rather cute voice rang out, startling Su Ping.
The next moment, above the elder’s head, space seemed to ripple and solidify from the void, and an object appeared before them.
It was a small mirror, only about palm-sized.
Its silver frame seemed to swallow the surrounding space. Beneath it, a red tassel dangled, lending the mirror an air of nobility.
All of this matched Su Ping’s imaginings of the Mirror of Reflecting Heavens.
The only exception was the face that appeared within the mirror itself—a face that left Su Ping momentarily speechless.
It was the face of a typical “2D” beautiful girl. Its appearance on this ancient-looking mirror gave Su Ping an abstract, almost surreal sensation, like looking at a smartphone displaying an anime character.
“This…” Su Ping blinked. He didn’t immediately recognize this as the legendary Mirror of Reflecting Heavens, a rare Spirit Saint Level Artifact Pet Beast.
“Eh? Judging by your expression, you don’t like this face? I thought all young people these days would like it!”
The 2D beauty on the mirror’s surface tilted her head, looking at Su Ping oddly from within the mirror. After sizing him up, she continued, “With your status and standing, plenty of excellent human girls should like you, right? But you’re still a single dog. Based on my calculations, you most likely prefer 2D girls, correct?”
Su Ping was speechless.
Dark lines formed on Su Ping’s forehead. What on earth was this all about? Was this truly the Spirit Saint Level Mirror of Reflecting Heavens? Why did it seem so… unreliable?
Even the Dong Family elder looked slightly embarrassed.
“Mirror Ancestor,” he said, “Su Ping’s accomplishments at such a young age are natural, given he has dedicated all his energy to his career in Pet Beast breeding.”
“Oh, I see. A career-oriented single dog, is that it?”
The beautiful girl in the mirror nodded with an air of understanding.
Su Ping pursed his lips, deciding to ignore this… peculiar mirror.
It wasn’t worth arguing with such a mirror, was it? After all, he would need its help later. Of course, he would never admit it was because, no matter what, he couldn’t possibly defeat this blasted mirror.
