Chapter 616: Chapter 487: Once Again
The next day, at seven in the morning.
It was still dark. A black sedan had already stopped at the gate of Four Seasons Garden.
Three or four people got out of the car. The one leading was a lean middle-aged man in a brown robe.
It was none other than the current director of the Guangchuan Municipal Education Bureau, Tan Lun.
“Director, aren’t we here too early?” a young cadre beside him asked.
Tan Lun glanced at a certain room in Four Seasons Garden and shook his head. “It’s not too early. Yesterday it was too late, but today we must visit at the first opportunity.”
Many things were unclear to the lower-ranking people, but as Wang Haiping’s successor after he was transferred to Qingye, Tan Lun knew very well.
Especially since Wang Haiping had recently been appointed as the deputy director of the Qingye Municipal Education Bureau.
That once brilliant genius of Demon Capital was no longer just a prodigy.
Not only had he joined the Sky Patrol Departnt, but he also had already reached the pinnacle of Shining Star and secured the position of Star Lord!
This ant that, let alone a small city like Guangchuan, in all of Great Fla’s Shining Stars, he was among the very few with the highest strength and authority!
How could an education bureau director of a third-level city compare to him?
Even if the Sky Patrol Departnt and the Education Bureau were not part of the sa system, when such a powerful figure ca, he had to show basic respect.
Even if the other party was extrely young, only in his twenties!
While Tan Lun and his subordinates were waiting, another car arrived at the gate of the community. A nearly two-ter tall, robust man with a crew cut got out.
Seeing this person, Tan Lun greeted him, “Captain Liu, you ca too.”
This crew-cut man was Liu Bo, the captain of the Guangchuan City Guard.
Liu Bo walked up to Tan Lun, quite surprised, “Director Tan, you’re here even earlier than I am?”
“I just arrived as well.”
Liu Bo glanced inside Four Seasons Garden and said, “Director Tan, you knew he was back and didn’t inform ?”
Tan Lun laughed, “Since I got the news, how could Captain Liu not know?”
“Ha, if he hadn’t appeared in Qingye City yesterday, I really might not have known.”
“Yesterday, Qingye City?” Tan Lun’s smile faded, surprised. “Yesterday, during the Star Beast riot in Baimiao Forest, was he on the scene?”
“Not only on the scene…” Liu Bo’s mouth curled into a grin as he leaned in and lowered his voice, “He slaughtered all the rioting Star Beasts himself!”
“What?!” Tan Lun’s face froze.
Liu Bo rely smiled without saying more, looking into Four Seasons Garden with eyes full of respect.
The City Guard was under the Military Supervision Departnt, and the Sky Patrol Departnt had authority over the Military Supervision Departnt.
A Third Level Special Envoy could mobilize local city defense forces, let alone a Star Lord.
Although Su Yuan wasn’t Liu Bo’s direct superior, he could be considered Liu Bo’s superior’s superior!
As for strength, it went without saying…
Just last night, Liu Bo had received a ssage from the Qingye City Guard that the Star Beast riot was quelled thanks to the person inside the community.
Otherwise, the entire battalion in Qingye City might have been in danger!
…
In the study, Su Yuan woke up.
Suddenly thinking of sothing, Su Yuan hurriedly turned his head and looked behind him.
But Luo Bingtong had already left, with only a faint scent of icy mint lingering.
Perhaps because of this scent, Su Yuan had slept very well. It was already past eight when he checked the ti.
Outside, Tang Shiyang’s voice kept coming, seemingly talking about sothing.
“Little Yuan used to love playing with this Battle Top as a child. He and his classmates would play with it all afternoon using an iron basin. Once, when the top broke, he ca back crying!”
“This car seems to be called ‘Tornado Charge,’ sothing he played with in elentary school. He used to shout ‘Tornado Charge, Tornado!’ in the yard after school every day…”
“…”
Just hearing a few words, Su Yuan’s face darkened, and he hurriedly walked out of the study.
Looking up, he saw Tang Shiyang chatting with Luo Bingtong on the sofa, a large box filled with his childhood toys and photos at their feet.
Tang Shiyang turned and smiled. “Oh, Little Yuan, you’re up?”
Luo Bingtong also looked over. “Su, Yuan.”
“Mom, what are you doing…” Su Yuan was speechless and directly moved the box away.
Tang Shiyang said, “Why put it away? I haven’t shown these to Xiao Tong yet.”
Su Yuan rubbed his temples and asked, “Where’s Dad?”
“He went to get so fruit at six.”
“So early?” Su Yuan frowned but said no more, turning to look at the door.
“They ca this quickly?”
A silver light flashed in Su Yuan’s eyes as he saw the two standing outside the door.
Although their faces were unfamiliar, having Shining Star Level cultivation in a place like Guangchuan City spoke for itself.
“Ding-dong~” The doorbell rang, and Tang Shiyang quickly got up to open the door.
Seeing the two outside, Tang Shiyang was first stunned, then recognized the lean middle-aged man on the left.
“Director Tan, what brings you here! And this…”
“Haha, Director Tang, I’m Liu Bo from the City Guard.” Liu Bo interjected with a smile.
“Liu Bo? Captain Liu!”
Liu Bo laughed. “Yes, Director Tang, you can just call Little Liu.”
“That… That wouldn’t be appropriate!” Although she didn’t know the situation, Tang Shiyang stepped aside. “Director Tan, Captain Liu, please co in!”
Liu Bo and Tan Lun imdiately saw Su Yuan sitting on the sofa, their eyes lighting up. They were about to salute.
“Let’s talk in the study,” Su Yuan interrupted them and then said to Tang Shiyang, “Mom, they’re here to see .”
Tang Shiyang quickly said, “Alright, take good care of them. I’ll make so tea for you all.”
Liu Bo hurriedly waved his hand, “No need, no need.”
The esteed head of the Guangchuan City Guard was a bit apprehensive at that mont.
Tan Lun also smiled politely, “Director Tang, we’ll just say a few words and leave.”
Su Yuan said, “Mom, you and Bing Tong stay in the living room for now.”
After leading the two to the study and locking the door, Su Yuan raised his hand, and a black light spread, taking the two into the Qingming Realm.
“What is this?!…”
The scenery before them changed abruptly. Liu Bo and Tan Lun looked around at the mountains and the dense Star Power, both showing shock and awe.
Not far away, a pitch-black, ferocious Qilin stood. Its nacing aura, as if one swipe could kill them, was terrifying.
“Su Xing Lord has such a mystical space!” Tan Lun and Liu Bo took a deep breath, suppressing their horror.
Su Yuan smiled and instructed Ruan Ruan on Mo Fei’s back, “Prepare coffee for the guests.”
“Got it!” Ruan Ruan transford into human form. “Yes, Master!”
With that, she went to the side to make coffee.
A Transford Star Beast!
Seeing this, Liu Bo and Tan Lun’s eyes widened further.
That Sli was a transford Star Beast?
Seeing the shock in their eyes, Su Yuan smiled and got straight to the point, “Although I am from Guangchuan City, I am not familiar with you two.
However, my parents still live here. I hope you can often look after them.”
Liu Bo said, “Su Xing Lord, you’re too kind. It’s my responsibility to ensure your parents’ safety. I’ll do my utmost.”
Tan Lun also said, “I’ll do everything within my power.”
Su Yuan smiled, glanced at their hands, and guessed their weapons from their aura and build.
With a flash of his ring, Su Yuan produced a sword and a spear-shaped Star Device and placed them in front.
“Of course, I won’t ask for your help for nothing. These gifts are your advance paynt.”
Liu Bo and Tan Lun looked at the Star Device Purple Cards in front of them, eyes widening. “Super Blue Star Devices?!”
They had never expected Su Yuan to present two Super Blue Star Devices just like that.
In Guangchuan City, and even in Qingye City, there weren’t many Shining Star Level cultivators with Super Blue Star Devices.
After all, a Super Blue Star Device could cost tens of thousands of Star Stones!
Of course, these ant nothing to Su Yuan. He had killed many, so he had more of such items and countless Star Stones…
Liu Bo and Tan Lun looked at the two Star Devices, eyes gleaming with desire, yet hesitant to accept them.
They had co to visit Su Yuan, not expecting him to give them gifts.
Su Yuan smiled, “Go ahead and take them. I’m often away. I just need you two to look after my family.”
Tan Lun hesitated briefly, then took the longsword. “Alright! Thank you, Star Lord. As long as I, Tan Lun, am here, nothing will happen to Director Tang and your father.”
Liu Bo also picked up the spear. “Rest assured, Star Lord. It’s my duty, and I’ll do everything to ensure their safety!”
“Hearing you say that puts my mind at ease.” Su Yuan smiled, then added, “I hope you keep your word, otherwise…”
“Roar!!”
A deafening roar ca from the Ink Qilin nearby, its terrifying Star Power surging, its savage coldness making Liu Bo and Tan Lun feel like they were in an ice pit, immobilized!
Ruan Ruan brought over the coffee, accompanied by a faint fragrance.
“Please, have so coffee.” Su Yuan smiled.
With his words, Mo Fei stopped roaring, reining in his aura and curling up obediently.
Liu Bo and Tan Lun finally snapped out of their shock, exchanged looks, realizing that the seemingly young man before them was not as gentle as he appeared!
“Yes… yes!” With slightly trembling hands, they gulped down the coffee in one go.
Su Yuan smiled as the black light enveloped them, taking them out of the Qingming Realm…
“Director Tan, Captain Liu, won’t you stay a bit longer?”
Su Yuan said, “Mom, they have other matters to attend to.”
Tan Lun said, “Yes… yes, next ti.”
With that, the two retreated.
And Su Yuan, enjoying the rare monts of happiness with his family…
Days flew by, spent fishing, cooking, shopping with his parents… and with Luo Bingtong at his side.
For Su Yuan, it was a rare leisurely life.
Every night, Luo Bingtong would sneak into the study and return before dawn.
But all good tis co to an end.
After dinner one day, Luo Bingtong picked up the Communication Talisman, checked it, and fell silent.
Su Yuan guessed, “A ssage from ‘ho’?”
Luo Bingtong nodded, “We have to… go back to Demon Capital.”
“When?”
“Tomorrow.”
Su Yuan thought for a second, then said, “I’ll escort you.”
Luo Bingtong’s eyes lit up, “Okay!”
The next day, amid Tang Shiyang’s and Su Yang’s repeated reminders and reluctance, Su Yuan took Luo Bingtong on a flight to Demon Capital.
Upon arrival, Ming Snake, whom they had t once, was already waiting at the airport.
“Miss Bingtong.” Ming Snake stepped forward to escort Luo Bingtong.
Luo Bingtong looked at Su Yuan, her eyes shimring, “Good…bye.”
Su Yuan smiled, “Goodbye.”
Luo Bingtong left with Ming Snake. Su Yuan, after getting his bearings, flew towards Demon Capital Academy…
