Chapter 751: Wulong Star Region

In the palace of King Longjue within the Wulong Star Domain.

At this moment, the five great administrators of the Wulong Star Domain gathered together.

“Fate is unpredictable,” King Longjue shook his head with a smile. “Not long ago, Luo Feng was bullied so pitifully by King Yanzhu, and now, in just a few thousand years, the situation has completely reversed. King Yanzhu is imprisoned in the Ninth Star Domain for a thousand eons, while Luo Feng has soared to the heavens and become a direct disciple of the Chaos Lord.”

“Longjue King, this time you must help a little,” said King Dalian, a tall and thin figure, as he set down his wine cup. “Last time when King Yanzhu targeted Luo Feng, none of us tried to stop him. I’m afraid… Luo Feng might hold a grudge.”

“Hmm,” nodded King Yinge.

“Longjue King, we’re counting on you to mediate,” added King Juyu.

The merchants were clearly adept at navigating social intricacies. They understood that while Luo Feng couldn’t act against them now and they belonged to opposing factions, the tides of fate were ever-changing. Should his power continue to ascend, he might well become another Venerable akin to Erosion Fire.

Once he gained power, it would be easy for him to deal with them.

There were many powerful figures who were narrow-minded and vengeful.

“Haha… Don’t worry,” King Longjue nodded with a smile, secretly pleased that by helping to resolve the tensions, Kings Yinge, Dalian, and Juyu would owe him a favor.

“I also need to thank Prince Luo Feng,” said a similarly handsome man sitting nearby with a smile.

In terms of handsomeness, King Yanzhu was so beautiful that it was hard to distinguish his gender.

But this handsome man was clearly a man at first glance.

“Haha, Qifeng King, you really should thank Luo Feng.”

“Yes, indeed.”

“Otherwise, how easily could King Yanzhu have been driven away?”

The other four laughed as they spoke.

Suddenly—

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!” A Domain Lord wearing silver armor rushed in and knelt respectfully. “Prince Luo Feng’s spaceship has arrived.”

“Prince Luo Feng?” The five were startled.

Whoosh.

All five stood up at once.

“Let’s go and welcome him,” said King Dalian.

“Hmm.”

The five leaders walked out together. They knew of Luo Feng’s relationship with King Longjue and had predicted that Luo Feng would come to Longjue first. Thus, the other four had gathered here in advance to greet Luo Feng.

…

Outside the palace.

Luo Feng had already retracted his spaceship, the Yimo Star, and was standing at the main gate of the palace wall.

“Luo Feng,” came a rough voice.

Luo Feng turned and saw the five walking out together. He smiled and said, “King Longjue, oh, and Kings Dalian, Yinge, and Juyu are here too.” As for the three immortal kings, although he didn’t harbor resentment, he certainly had no affection for them. Back then, when King Yanzhu wanted to imprison him in the star domain’s jail, the three had stood by like invisible spectators, not even trying to stop it.

“Knowing that you were coming, we’ve been waiting for you, Prince,” said the tall and thin King Dalian with a smile.

“Oh,” Luo Feng nodded but said nothing.

“Luo Feng, allow me to introduce someone,” King Longjue said with a smile, gesturing toward the handsome man beside him. “This is King Qifeng from the Giant Axe Arena.”

“King Qifeng?” Luo Feng looked over.

Damn.

Another handsome fellow. King Yanzhu had been so beautiful that it was hard to tell if he was male or female, and this man, although not as stunning as Yanzhu, was still a peerless beauty.

“Is it always the case that the Giant Axe Arena sends out such dashing Immortal Kings?” Luo Feng murmured under his breath.

“Your Highness,” King Qifeng smiled. “I’ve just taken up this position. Haha, to be honest, I have to thank you, Your Highness. If it weren’t for your incident that led to King Yanzhu being imprisoned in the Ninth Star Domain, I wouldn’t have been able to take this position… Thank you, Your Highness.”

Hearing this, Luo Feng’s face lit up with a smile. Oh, so King Qifeng and King Yanzhu didn’t get along.

“Come, Luo Feng, let’s go inside and talk,” said King Longjue.

“Right, let’s go inside and chat.”

“Your Highness, please.”

They all showed great enthusiasm, and Luo Feng, giving them face, entered the palace with the five administrators. This scene left the guards and Domain Lords at the gate whispering among themselves… What kind of person is this, to be greeted so eagerly by the five top leaders?

…

Inside the palace hall.

A grand feast was laid out, and the six of them took their seats.

“Four thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. Four thousand years ago, Luo Feng was just an ordinary member of the Primordial Secret Realm. Now, you’ve become the direct disciple of the Chaos Lord,” King Longjue raised his wine cup. “I admire you, Luo Feng. Come, let’s drink to this.”

“Cheers.”

Everyone raised their cups, and Luo Feng followed suit.

They all drank deeply!

“Lo—” King Longjue was about to speak when Luo Feng smiled and said, “Let’s talk later, King Longjue. This time I came to the Wulong Star Domain mainly to purchase Zerg corpses, and of course, I also want to go treasure hunting in the junkyard… Let’s discuss business first and get it out of the way before we talk.”

“Alright, let’s discuss business first,” King Longjue quickly nodded.

“Yes, let’s talk business.”

“Business comes first.” The other administrators all showed great respect to Luo Feng.

Seeing this, Luo Feng sighed inwardly.

There is a saying on Earth: “When poor, even in a bustling city no one notices; when rich, even in the mountains distant relatives come.” The same principle applied here. When his power was weak, these immortal kings who held high positions didn’t care about him. In front of him, they were either cold or putting on airs, never smiling or trying to please him.

But now that he had become a direct disciple of the Chaos Lord, even a single word from him was met with agreement from all.

“Forget it,” Luo Feng thought, letting go of his resentment toward them. “They are in charge of the commercial department, and they are just used to acting this way.”

“Luo Feng, you want to purchase 10,000 Zerg corpses at the Domain Lord peak level. Since you have already paid for the order, it’s simple,” King Longjue smiled. “We will arrange people to go directly to the storage area and bring you the 10,000 Zerg corpses. Oh, this transaction is huge, so it also needs the approval of the other four.”

“No problem.”

“Of course, we will select the best 10,000 Zerg corpses for you, Your Highness.”

“Don’t worry.”

King Qifeng was fine, but Kings Dalian, Yinge, and Juyu were clearly very enthusiastic, obviously trying to make up for the previous tensions between them. Their efforts succeeded, and Luo Feng felt his anger ease as he saw this.

“How long will it take?” Luo Feng asked.

“Within ten days,” King Longjue said confidently.

“So fast?” Luo Feng was surprised.

Last time, ordering just 100 Zerg corpses took a long time. This time, it was 10,000 Zerg corpses, yet the time was even shorter than last time.

“We will arrange 100 people to go directly to various locations to gather the best Zerg corpses,” King Yinge smiled. “Of course, it will be fast. Your Highness just needs to rest here and wait for the ten days to receive the Zerg corpses.”

…

During the ten days in the Wulong Star Domain, the five leaders, including King Longjue, did their best to ensure Luo Feng enjoyed his stay. In just ten days, Luo Feng gained an even deeper understanding of the importance of strength and status.

“Lo Feng,” King Longjue’s voice echoed throughout the palace.

Luo Feng stepped out from his quarters.

Two maids stood at the door, ready to be summoned at any moment, while in the distance, King Longjue was rapidly approaching, each step covering thousands of kilometers.

“King Longjue,” Luo Feng smiled. “What’s the matter? Have the Zerg corpses been gathered already?”

“Gathered,” King Longjue nodded with a smile and flipped his hand, producing a black world ring. “All 10,000 Zerg corpses are inside.”

“Oh?”

Luo Feng joyfully accepted the ring. This world ring was unclaimed, so he easily infused his world power into it and began to carefully inspect the 10,000 Zerg corpses at the Domain Lord peak level. Upon inspection, he couldn’t help but show a hint of joy.

“King Longjue, King Dalian, King Yinge, and the other five really are generous and open-hearted,” Luo Feng thought happily. “The average quality of these 10,000 Zerg corpses is actually better than the 100 I bought last time.”

The 100 Zerg corpses he had bought previously were of such high quality that they could produce about 1.8 million Tiger Beetle Zergs, which was considered extremely excellent. According to the information he had received through the virtual universe network when placing the order, Luo Feng also knew the general quality. If he had arranged for delivery at that time, the 100 Zerg corpses delivered would have been able to produce 1 million Tiger Beetle Zergs.

In other words, ordering 10,000 Zerg corpses would have produced about a million Tiger Beetle Zerg warriors!

But Luo Feng was delighted to find—

The 10,000 Zerg corpses provided by the five leaders were enough to produce ‘two million’ Tiger Beetle Zerg warriors!

“Exactly doubled.”

“60 million points, yet I bought goods worth 120 million points.”

“These five leaders really gave me face,” Luo Feng thought happily. “Of course… this is the total wealth of the human race, not their own money.”

If it were Dalian and the others paying, they probably wouldn’t have been so generous.

Seeing the joy on Luo Feng’s face, King Longjue laughed heartily, “How is it? Not bad, right?”

“Very good, these Zerg corpses are all excellent,” Luo Feng nodded.

“Zerg corpses vary in quality. This time, Kings Dalian, Yinge, and Juyu contributed a lot. They brought over some of their best Zerg corpse resources,” King Longjue smiled. “They three actually wanted to make up for what happened last time. I hope you won’t hold it against them.”

“I see. King Yanzhu had the backing of the Venerable Erosion Fire, so their actions make sense to me,” Luo Feng nodded with a faint smile. “I hold no grudge against them.”

“Haha, that’s good,” King Longjue nodded.

Having received the benefit, it was like accepting their apology, so of course Luo Feng didn’t blame them.

“I remember you wanted to go treasure hunting in the junkyard,” King Longjue asked. “How long do you plan to stay there?”

“Not more than a hundred years,” Luo Feng said.

This time, his goal was to collect ‘silver shell fragments’ to form a complete set of silver armor. According to Luo Feng’s estimate, about ten years would probably be enough to gather a full set.

“Oh… Here are 100 world rings. Each world ring represents one year you can spend treasure hunting,” King Longjue flipped his hand and took out 100 silver rings. “Also, I’ll send you a ‘monitoring network map’ later. With your authority, you can view the monitoring network. Then, you can freely explore the Wulong Star Domain to treasure hunt, without needing anyone else to accompany you.”
