Chapter 214 Helping Hands
“Oh, you all ca back?” Su Ping felt sowhat glad that the other mbers in Nie Chengkong’s team had made it back safe and sound. Also, he happened to have sothing to ask them.
Similarly, all the others looked relieved to see Su Ping had also returned without a scratch.
“Good timing.” Ye Chenshan smiled in a friendly manner. “We just heard that the Mysterious Realm is going to be shut off ahead of schedule. We feared that you’d run into trouble if you stayed in there for longer.”
Su Ping raised an eyebrow. “Shut off?”
“Yeah. I think it’s an urgent decision or sothing,” answered Luo Guxue, “The entrance will be closed off in three days. I think sothing unpredictable happened to the dragon tower.”
Because I cleared the final floor? Su Ping thought.
This was bad news though. If whoever was administering the Mysterious Realm knew about the hidden legacy and how it could be found, they’d probably look for him. Or worse, they’d soon find out where he lived and ambush him at his ho.
Damn it. Then I should head straight back to the shop instead of going ho. The mark will protect in a pinch. As long as I get inside the shop, no one will be able to hurt ...
anwhile, Zhou Feng’s team recognized the famous Team Polaris and felt even worse when they saw Su Ping talking to them like they were old friends.
Fu*k. Why didn’t I just give these damned kids more points and shoo them off?? Zhou Feng ntally complained with a wry face. That would have spared us all the trouble.
It was too late though. He had to go with the second plan, which was to find help to negotiate with Su Ping in private and hopefully erase his grudge via a sincere apology or sothing. He could accept the beating as long as this matter ended without further complications.
All the students had learned the nas of the prominent teams before making the trip, so they already recognized the famous Team Polaris as well as an advanced teacher from their academy. They dread of joining a prestigious team in the future.
“Hey brother, what’s this Mysterious Realm?” Su Lingyue tugged Su Ping’s clothes.
Su Ping found it funny that his sister was acting so carefully here when she was an unruly little imp back ho.
He put up the friendliest smile he could manage and looked at her.
“Not. Gonna. Tell you...”
Su Lingyue seed to want to protest but held back.
Ye Chenshan and his friends had just realized that Su Lingyue had a sister. They silently kept her na in mind as they believed that this girl might be their ticket to get closer to Su Ping in the future.
Besides, joining barren area expeditions at such a young age only ant that Su Lingyue had great talent as well.
Su Lingyue noticed the other’s attention and blushed. She was smart enough to understand that it was her “stupid brother” who had given her a chance to get this close to the mbers of Team Polaris.
She had always feared that this useless brother of hers would bring her problems by causing trouble outside. Never in her life would she expect that it would turn out to be the opposite.
Guess I was... wrong about him after all.
Of course, she wouldn’t admit that out loud.
“I think I heard about such a thing once,” said Lu Pengfei, “It’s usually the best teams or settlers who are able to go there. You guys know Ye Hao? He didn’t join any barren expeditions because he went to the Mysterious Realm. Or so I head. Did you go there as well, Mister Su? Man, you’re way ahead of us. Again!”
Ye Chenshan looked at the group behind Su Ping who seed to look rather glum for so reason. “And they are...?”
“Ah, good timing. I need so help regarding... these people.” Su Ping glanced at Zhou Feng’s group. “They call themselves Team Night Wolf. They immorally took rit points that are rightfully my sister’s, and also threatened her. Now here I am, getting so justice done. My sister and her friends will be joining a lot more missions around here. Hope you guys can look after them when you can.”
Ye Chenshan already knew what was going on because such things were pretty common between settler teams and students.
He gave Zhou Feng an unfriendly glimpse. “Scamming academy students? That makes you happy, huh?”.
Zhou Feng put up a sad smile. “Mister Ye, this is all a huge misunderstanding. We already agreed to pay compensation. You’re Mister Su’s acquaintance, no? I’d appreciate it if you can help talk to him and find out how to and our mistake. We’ll do anything we can.”
Ye Chenshan looked at Su Ping, hoping to learn his opinion.
Su Ping was just planning to stalk these guys and deal with them one by one once they reached sowhere private. Though he no longer had ti for that when he had to return to his shop asap.
“Let’s see... Mister Ye, you said you owed one and wanted to pay back soti, right? Here, I’ll leave this matter to you.”
Ye Chenshan could see that Su Ping was angry since his sister had almost gotten hurt. He had no problem agreeing, but he was a little disappointed seeing that Su Ping was planning to use the “favor” for such a trifling thing “I see.” Ye Chenshan nodded. “Sure, I’ll handle the rest from here.”
Luo Guxue was already doing the job by yelling at Zhou Feng, “They’re MY students, you know that?? Did you seriously take everything from them when they worked so hard? Who gave your team the right to harass innocent students like shaless rascals?”
Zhou Feng’s lips twitched as he had been humiliated too many tis that day. Still, there was nothing he could do against Luo Guxue’s team.
Under many pairs of watchful eyes, Zhou Feng went to the counter and made the point transfer, before quickly making off with his team.
Ye Chenshan watched them go with a frown. “Mister Su, trust , I’ll get to the bottom of this.”
Su Ping nodded and went to the counter as well. It was ti to browse the rchandise and buy sothing.
