Chapter 1181
Since Planet Buck was too far from the Royal Region and had too low a value, the Grim family did not waste huge amounts of finances and resources to build a communication center there.
This was the reason Planet Buck was very behind on news, which explained why they did not know about the huge event that had happened in the Royal Region recently.
In reality, Earth was in a similar situation.
However, Earth had David Lidell’s system acting as a hub, which connected the network between them and the rest of the galaxy. If not, it would have required a great sum of money for Earth to build a huge communication center to connect with the Royal Region’s network.
As David connected the network, he also limited the earthlings‘ access to anything beyond the surface information of the Milky Way. They could not access more in–depth information.
David had also used the system’s stealth function to prevent the earth’s location from being exposed.
Truth be told, the system was extremely brilliant, and David had no idea who created it.
It was impossible for a Level 9 Civilization to comprehend a God Tier Civilization creation. Even though the former may seem like it was merely one tier away, the actual difference between the two was as different as the skies and the land.
However, David had a feeling that as long as he relied on the system to increase his abilities, there would be a day when he would finally knew all the secrets the system held.
Julius Grim and the others from the Grim family gawked at David in shock.novelbin
The Grim family had been eradicated?
How was that possible?
Even if they had not returned to their families in a long time, the Grim family was still ranked fourth out of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way Empire, and was a reputable force even amongst the Royal Region.
They may not be the strongest, but they certainly were not weak at all.
How was eradication even a possibility?
They did not believe David at all.
“You… You… You’re lying! Us Grims are one of the prominent families of the Milky Way Empire. How could you possibly have eradicated us? If you dare do anything to us, the grandmaster of the Grim family will make you pay.” Julius retorted loudly.
Internally, he was in a stage of utter horror since he saw Balu at David’s side.
Just like the people on this planet, there was a “slave” marked on the forehead of this man. He also looked like the chief that was brought away from this planet all those years ago.
Julius had a feeling that this trio was here for revenge.
When he thought about all the things he did to the people on this planet while he ruled Planet Buck for the past hundreds of years, causing the people to drop from a population of a
hundred million to about only ten million, Julius felt his blood run cold.
He was dead!
He was extremely dead. If these people knew about this, they certainly would not let him go. He was done for!
It did not matter if the Grim family was indeed eradicated because his death was imminent.
David did not want to pay attention to people like him. It would be too easy to just let Julius die, so David spared his miserable life for Balu to torture him slowly, like how he had tortured the Buckeranians. David looked at Balu, who was at the side, and said, “Let‘s go, Balu! I‘ll bring you to rescue your people. Your people are waiting for you to come back and save them.” “Thank you, Master!” Balu replied with his eyes red–rimmed. Right after that, David brought the other two with him and left to rescue the Buckeranians.
As for Julius and the rest, they were left in place, but their bodies were completely disabled, and they could not move even if they wanted to.
Planet Buck was not huge. With David‘s mind power assisting them, it was an easy task for him to locate the people were. First, they needed to free the Buckeranians that were slaving away under the Grim family‘s control.
Then, they would look for the rest of the people that were hiding in the shadows, away from the Grim family‘s pursuit.
Chapter 1182
David Lidell and the other two went toward their first stop, which was the nearest mine.
Planet Buck was rich in a certain kind of ore that could be extracted and refined into low–grade metal. Even if its value was not great, large volumes of it could be worth quite a lot. If not, the Grim family would not have sent so many people there.
Julius Grim‘s task was to control the indigenous people so they would mine ores and refine them into metal. The Grim family would be there to collect it once every few decades.
The mine that David and the rest were heading toward was a bigger mine, with at least thousands of Buckeranians working in captivity as mining slaves. As they were just approaching the mine, they could hear all kinds of insults from the Grims. “Be quick! Did you not f*cking eat? I‘ll break your f*cking legs if you continue dilly–dallying.” “What the heck are you looking at? Don‘t you have your job to do? Wanna stand up for him, huh? You looking for a beating?” “Smack! Smack! Smack!”
“Ahh! I won‘t do it again, I won‘t do it again!”
“Master, someone passed out.”
“Trash! Doing such little work and they dare pass out? A few of you, drag him out, throw him to the beasts! Don‘t get in the way.”
“Yes, Master!”
“Ding! Ding!”
A noise combination of scolding, people shrieking from pain, and clanging of the ore mining filled the ears of David and the other two.
Balu‘s eyes were bloodshot as he trembled with rage.
If David was not at his side, he would have rushed in and killed everyone in there.
David‘s expressions were stormy as well.
That was the result of implanting the slave mark.
If earth also had the slave mark implanted on it all those years ago, it would probably be in a similar state to Planet Buck.
Mia Concord did not feel as emotional as the rest.
She was born in the Royal Region, and even though she was born to a small force, she was used to watching injustice.
One could only rise above the crowd if one had the ability and background to match. Or else, if one lived in the lowest tier of society, they would not have it easy. There were even a few arenas that had secretly organized matches to pit human against human just to entertain the rich and powerful.
Losing meant death, and to die a gruesome death was way crueller than what was happening in the mine.
David and the rest continued walking forward and were quickly stopped by two Grims.
“Who are the two of you? You look unfamiliar! This is the heart of the mine, you can’t enter without the Master’s permission.”
Naturally, they assumed that David and Mia were Grim, because, on Planet Buck, other than the indigenous people that had the slave mark implanted, the rest of the people were all Grims.
There was no slave mark on Mia and David’s forehead, so it was clear that they were not one of the indigenous people.
David ignored them and continued walking forward.
The two Grims were about to stop him when they realized they could no longer move their body.
Not only could they not move their body, but they also could not speak a word.
It was like there was a hand squeezing their throats.
Slowly, the two Grims lost their lives and fell to the ground.
As David and the two entered the mining area, they were immediately greeted with the sight of countless Buckeranians hard at work.
Each and every one of them was so thin they were skin and bones.
80 percent of them were men, and 20 percent of them were women.
There were also a few of them pushing the ores out from the mining hole.
“Ding! Ding!”
The sound of mining was a lot clearer once they went in.
The miners were hard at work while the supervisors from the Grim family were seated at the side surrounded by meat and fruits. There were beauties serving them, massaging them, and feeding them.
David and the two also saw a pile of about ten bodies stacked casually on top of each other. These were probably the miners that had fainted or died today.
In reality, with the abilities of the Grim family in the Milky Way, it was entirely plausible to hand the mining jobs over to machines, since the technology on level 3 civilizations in the Milky Way was already very advanced.
However, they chose to use human labor to save costs.
Planet Buck had so many slaves anyway, they might as well put them to use.
The arrival of David and the other two caught the attention of the supervisors.
However, before they could say anything, David had already broken their necks with his mind power.
Chapter 1183
“Ahhhh!”
The sudden death of the supervisors from the Grim family provoked a shriek from the beauties that were serving them.
At the same time, it had also drew the attention of several miners. They stopped what they were doing to look at the dead supervisors, and then at David and his troop.
Ever since Balu stepped foot on Planet Buck, he had been restricting himself, until he saw how it was almost like a living hell before his eyes. Now, he could not hold back anymore.
These were his people.
Once, they had such blissful, free lives, but here they were at that moment, knowing nothing but pain and suffering as they trudged on, barely living. They were living completely hopeless lives. David did not say anything. He knew he needed to hand it over to Balu at that moment.
After managing his emotions, Balu knelt before David and bowed three times. Then, he got up and faced the Buckeranians without any emotion on his face.
“Good day, Buckeranians! My name is Balu, my father was Babu, and he was once the chief of this planet. At that time, we were all living blissful, free lives…
“But, ever since these scums arrived, our peaceful days have been disrupted. My entire family has been abducted, and we were forced to painfully live as slaves, while all of you were left behind to fend for yourself…
“However, it‘s all good now, Master has killed that bunch of scums, and I‘ve been rescued by Master. What we will do next is to free the entire Planet Buck and liberate our people. We have to work together to rebuild our home. We will go back to living the peaceful lives we once had…
“Lastly, I would like to apologize to all Buckeranians on behalf of my father, Babu. He did not manage to protect you and has caused all of you the hell you have to live with. I‘m sorry!”
Balu spoke all these with tears streaming down his face, and when he was done, he collapsed to the ground on his knees.
The Buckeranians, who had initially lost all hope and were emotionless and expressionless had dazzling light shining from their eyes after they heard what Balu had said.
They were not the generation of Buckeranians from hundreds of years before, but the third, the fourth generation after that, with some of them being the sixth or seventh generation after that.
Due to long–term malnourishment and timeless working, these people had very short lifespans.
However, this did not stop them from knowing about Planet Buck‘s past glory, since it was passed down via word of mouth from generation to generation. novelbin
Planet Buck was once like paradise. They had no oppression, no fights, and no forced labor regardless of the time of day. They never knew what kind of lifestyle the Buckeranians had in the past because they had never experienced it before. It was merely a dream to them. They could only imagine it. Did they finally wait long enough to see their dreams fulfilled?
All of the workers placed their tools down, fell to their knees, and wept. David brought Mia with him as they walked away. He knew these people had been holding it all in for too long a time, and they needed to let it all out.
David and his troop took a few days to go through each and every mine on Planet Buck. There were thousands of them.
The smaller mining areas had a few hundred people, while the bigger mining areas had tens of thousands of people. In total, they freed millions of Buckeranians.
Along their journey, they found that the entire Planet Buck was littered with dead bodies everywhere. It was like they were walking through hell.
There were many workers that had died, after which their bodies were carelessly discarded, welcoming the wild beasts to feast on them, and there were bones and corpses strewn everywhere.
Planet Buck used to have close to a hundred million people, but all that was left were the measly ten million people. The death rate was over 90 percent, and their remains could be easily seen all over Planet Buck.
Only the area around where Julius Grim stayed was clean. Looking at the horrible, hellish scene before them, not only were David and Balu shocked, even Mia‘s heart trembled.
One of them was glad that Earth had escaped such fate.
The other was flabbergasted. These were all his people.
David showed no mercy to the cruel supervisors from the Grim family. As soon as they arrived at a location, the first thing he did was take care of the supervisors.
After freeing the slaves, they went to look for the other people that were in hiding.
There were quite a number of them, and they were nearly all hiding in the deep forest.
If the Grims wanted to find these people, it would not be hard for them. The only reason why they did not was due to the issue of sustainability.
Chapter 1184
If they were to all be captured, it would not take long till there was no one left to work in the mines.
Only when these people were spared could they continue to have offspring, by which time the Grims would have an unending supply of slaves to work the mines.
In the beginning, Julius Grim was not aware of this problem, causing the number of Buckeranians to decrease drastically. He only slowly came to realize the gravity of this issue after some time. novelbin
If there was no one left on Planet Buck, they would most certainly be called to go back to the Grim family, and the paradise–like life as they knew it would come to an end.
This was the reason they developed a strategy like this.
If they let the hiding Buckeranians breed, when there was no one left to work the mines, all they needed to do was uproot one or two groups of people from their hiding places to continue the work.
The Grims repeated this many times, successfully extending their days in paradise.
After freeing all the slaves, David and the two breathed a sigh of relief. Looking for the others was no longer urgent after knowing that at the very least, they would not be in danger.
David and the rest were also prepared to continue their search mission after a night’s rest. Just as David returned to his Galaxy Warship, his communication device rang out of the blue. “Ring ring!”
It was a message from Princess Astrid.
Even though Planet Buck could not connect to the Royal Region’s network, David had the system with him!
He was able to completely ignore the distance. No matter where he was, he was able to connect to the network.
As for Astrid Barlowe, David had decided to try his best to keep his distance, and not have too many interactions with her. This was because he knew that Astrid Barlowe had started to grow fond of him.
If they were to continue interacting, it would cause a lot of trouble in the future.
The main issue was Astrid’s very unique identity. As the only Milky Way princess, who was also Emperor Nimbus‘ favorite daughter, if something were to happen between the two of them, the issues would be immeasurable.
David did not need to be fearful of anyone, especially with his current ability, but he was still not very fond of being under the limelight, and being at the center of attention of the entire Milky Way.
His current relationship status was very complicated, and the more it was probed the more complicated it would get. At this point, he had no idea how he was going to deal with all it.
If he were to add another princess to the mix, would that not be equivalent to him digging his own grave? Shaking his head, David opened the message.
Astrid, “Where are you now, David?”
David, “I‘m not in the Royal Region at the moment. I‘m very far away. What can I do for you, Your Royal Highness?”
Astrid, “Oh, you‘re still not done with your business, David?”
David, “Nope! It might still take a very long time. If there‘s anything I can help you with, please feel free to say it, Your Royal Highness.” Astrid, “David, three months from now, Father will throw a state
banquet at Planet Royal, and all the different forces of the Milky Way will be there in celebration. I‘d like to invite you to come along. Will you be available?”
At Planet Royal far, far away, Astrid Barlowe sat in her room, staring nervously at her communication device after she had sent the message. She was so worried that David would say that he did not have time.
It took her so long to find an excuse to invite David to Planet Royal.
If he rejected her, what should she do?
Did she really have to ask Father to step in personally, and have him captured so he would be her husband?
No, no!
No way.
If she did that, David would be really angry. She could not be selfish like that.
Chapter 1185
David looked at Astrid’s message and was silent.
Emperor Nimbus had planned for a state banquet at Planet Royal three months from now? All the forces of the Milky Way would be there in celebration?
Did the state banquet of the Milky Way Empire not only happen once a decade? It was not time for it yet, right?
Also, it was not that grand of an occasion as well to have all the forces in the Milky Way attending.
David instinctually felt that this state banquet was more than it initially seemed.
It might be related to the Sangruil Sinners.
However, what did that have to do with him?
Why did Astrid Barlowe invite him?
David gave it more thought, and he roughly understood Astrid’s plans.
Inviting him to the state banquet was a hoax. The truth was, she wanted to see him.
The state banquet was nothing but an excuse. It would be best if he did not attend.
If all the forces of the Milky Way were to be present at the state banquet this time around, and there was bound to be a flurry of VIPs. If he really did spark any rumors between himself and
Princess Astrid, he was sure to become well-known and famous. He would be thrust into spotlight and become the center of attention everywhere he went, and that was no good news.
It did not suit his humble personality.
Hence, David’s reply was, “Your Royal Highness, I’m truly sorry! I will be occupied with work at this time and won’t be in the Royal Region, so I might not be able to attend.”
David have yet to realize that he was the biggest VIP of the Milky Way.
With combat ranking of Partial Eternal Realm, he would be able to put up a fight if he ever got into a fight with Emperor Nimbus.
Besides that, he had three different top combat skills practiced to perfection, and a supreme weapon – the Demon-Splitting Sword – that could slice through everything in the universe. novelbin
With all these added bonuses, only a genuine fight could show if Emperor Nimbus was actually a match for him. David felt that he had nothing to be afraid of, especially of Nimbus Barlowe.
Meanwhile, Astrid was anxiously waiting for David’s reply.
When she saw David’s reply about him not being at the Royal Region, hence he could not make it, she felt aggrieved.
When they parted, they had made a pact for him to come back to her as soon as he could.
It had been such a long time, and not only did he not have any intention of coming to Planet Royal, he even rejected her when she took the initiative to invite him.
As the Emperor’s favorite daughter, when did she ever suffer such grievance?
Astrid’s tears flowed down like a breached dam.
It took a while for her to let it all out, and when she finally dried her tears, she felt that she could not just give up like that.
She had to fight for her happiness.
If David did not want to see her, she would change her approach.
After giving it some thought, Astrid had finally come up with another valid excuse.
“David, I told Father and Mother about you saving me, and they would like you to attend the state banquet so that they could thank you for saving me, and they would like to ask you more about the situation regarding the Sangruil Sinners. You’ve fought them, so you should be more aware of their combat style. This time, the Sangruil Sinners partnered with the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan and merged both their genes. It would be a huge threat to the people of the Milky Way, so Father and the rest are trying to figure out a way to counter it. Could you please temporarily set aside the work you have on hand and make a trip here?”
After she had finished typing it, she sent it and quietly waited for the results.
This time, she was no longer as anxious as she was before.
Astrid believed that David would not reject her this time, since it involved the safety of the people of the entire Milky Way.
Also, what she had said was technically not wrong.
This time, the Sangruil Sinners partnered with the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan, and it could be a catastrophe to the people of the Milky Way.
The Nine- Headed Serpent Clan was one of the strongest clans amongst the galaxy beasts that loved to consume humans.
Chapter 1186
It would be troublesome once they interfered with the Milky Way‘s affairs. novelbin
Even her father and brothers could be in danger.
David finished reading Astrid‘s message.
It was exactly like he had speculated.
He knew Sangruil Sinners were up to no good when they attacked Princess Astrid.
Otherwise, they dared not act so blatantly.
His speculation was proven to be true.
Even the empire felt the danger.
Sangruil Sinners seemed to have found a strong partner, so they wanted back evf ything that had once belonged to them.
When it came to the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan, aside from what David had heard from Astrid, he had also learned about them from the Meteor Chamber.
However, he did not learn much about them.
The Meteor Chamber required other treasures of heaven and earth instead of Galaxy Dollars in exchange for in–depth information.
David could not help it.
Was he to trade it for the Demon–Splitting Sword?
He was not that stupid.
He would not do this unless he had lost his mind.
It was a weapon capable of slaughtering everything in the universe.
There was no way he would use something that made him stronger in exchange for something useless. He bought information from the Meteor Chamber to get lavish points.
Since he could not buy it, there was no need to do any transactions.
Therefore, he had only gotten basic information about Nine Headed Serpent. He only knew that they were a strong man eating race.
However, they were not in the Milky Way Galaxy, but the Beast Galaxy next door.
David had no idea how strong this race was and whether it was as strong as Eternal Realm.
Since Sangruil Sinners and Nine–Headed Serpent Clan were working together, they must have had a deal with each other. If Sangruil Sinr s brought down the empire and took control of the Milky Way, wey would have done their side of the deal. Many people from the Milky Way would die and become the Nine Headed Serpent Clan‘s meal.
David did not want to be a busybody, but he was human after all. He could not stand seeing the Milky Way‘s people become another race‘s food.
He would forget it if he was incapable.
However, he had the power to stop it, so he could not stand by and watch.
David, “Your Royal Highness, no need to thank me. Since we‘re friends, don‘t mention it. But since it has something to do with the Sangruil Sinners and Nine–Headed Serpent Clan‘s deal, I have some say in this as I‘ve confronted them before. Don‘t worry! I‘ll be at Planet Royal in three months.”
Astrid‘s tears turned into smiles after receiving David‘s message.
She knew David would say yes.
Whatever his reason for coming to Planet Royal, it was fine as long
as he was here.
Astrid, “David, you‘re highly principled. I thank you for Father and the Milky Way‘s people.” David, “Your Royal Highness, don‘t mention it! I‘m human too. Of course, I don‘t want to see another powerful race invade our homeland. Especially if it‘s a Nine–Headed Serpent that feeds on humans. I won‘t refuse as long as I can help.”
Astrid, “Thank you very much, David. I‘ll wait for your arrival in Planet Royal in three months.”
David, “Okay! See you in three months.” Astrid finally sn d brightly after texting David.
‘David finally agreed. ‘He‘ll be on Planet Royal in three months, and I‘ll see him then.’ However, Astrid then looked a little distressed. ‘There are still three months to go!
‘How can I pass the time faster?
‘If only time could speed up.‘,
Chapter 1187
While Astrid was frustrated, someone entered her bedroom.
Only one person in the Milky Way would walk into Princess Astrid‘s bedroom without knocking.
That person was Empress Gamora–Astrid‘s biological mother.
She was the only person who could do that. Even Emperor Nimbus needed to knock before entering. After all, her daughter was a grown–up now.
Forget about the others. No one would do so unless they had a death wish.
“What‘s on your mind, my dear daughter?” Gamora came up to Astrid and whispered in her ear.
“Ah!”
Astrid was startled by the sudden noise.
“Mother! You scared the hell out of me,” said Astrid as she puffed her cheeks.
“You wouldn‘t even know there‘s someone in the room if I didn‘t speak. How dangerous is that? What if someone bad had come here?”
Astrid rolled her eyes. “Mother, this is my bedroom. No one but you dares to enter so quietly.” “Alright, alright. I‘m sorry. Tell me what was on your mind. You were so absorbed in your thoughts.” “No… Nothing!”
“Were you thinking about that David kid again?”
“No… I‘m not!”
“You look nervous, and you‘re telling me you‘re not. Have you invited David to the state banquet in three months?” Asked Gamora.
She was worried that David was a trap.
Therefore, she needed to confirm David‘s identity as soon as possible.
It would be best to intercept David outside if they knew where David was.
If not, they could lure him to Planet Royal.
After all, Planet Royal was the Barlowe family‘s headquarters.
“Yes!” Answered Astrid.
“What did he say?”
“David says he‘ll ve on Planet Royal in three months.” “That‘s more like it! I’ll send someone to bring him here if he rejects my baby girl.” – “Mother, will you stop being so violent? Did Father bring you back like that too?” Astrid asked curiously.
“No way. Your father and I are in love with each other. By the way, did David say where he is right now?”
“No, but he said he isn‘t in the Royal Region right now. He‘s somewhere far away.”
“I see.”
“What‘s the matter? Mother, is there a problem?”
“No, no! Everything’s fine as long as he comes to Planet Royal in three months.”
“He promised me, so he will be here!” Astrid said confidently. Then she recalled something and added, “Mother, why don‘t you tell me what happened between you and Father back then?” “What is there to tell? You‘re too young to understand this.” Gamora shook her head and rejected.
“Oh! Mother… Tell me all about it! I‘m not little anymore, okay? I‘d love to hear about your history,” Astrid said coquettishly as she took Gamora‘s hand.
Gamora rolled her eyes at Astrid and said, “Alright! I‘ll tell you about it. Your father was amazing back then. Over the past thousands of years, he was the most talented person in the Milky Way. He has charmed many girls, making them fall for him. I‘m not bad either. I was Lunar Palace‘s high priestess, and many men adored me…”
Empress Gamorrld Princess Astrid her and Emperor Nimbus‘s love story.
They went from acquaintance to lovers and then husband and wife.
They had the highest status in the Milky Way. One was the empire‘s prince, and the other was Lunar Palace‘s high priestess. novelbin
Therefore, their families did not stop them.
Both liked each other, so they naturally ended up together.
They did not experience any tumultuous or dramatic romance.
However, it was often the happiest to have a peaceful relationship.
Chapter 1188
You could see it in the way Gamora remembered it.
Astrid listened with longing.
She wished she and David could be like her parents.
Light Star. Close to the edge of Zone of Nothingness in the Milky Way.
Since the Sangruil Sinners occupied it, the humans here had been kept in captivity for food. Light Star was now a hundred times scarier than Planet Buck.
The people on Planet Buck were only abused and enslaved, and the people worked themselves to death.
However, Ligh tar was different.
All humans had been locked up for food. They were supplied to Sangruil Sinners with Nine–Headed Serpent Clan‘s genes.
You could imagine the fear people on the Light Star felt.
What was it like to wake up every day, scared it was your turn to be eaten and be treated as food when you were a high–intelligent race with consciousness, a mind of your own, and character?
Only the people on Light Star knew.
They were in a state of panic almost all the time.
That atmosphere could drive people crazy. The Sangruil Sinners could control their desire to eat humans if they were willing.
They were only part Nine–Headed Serpent, with the human genes still being the dominant part of their genetic makeup. novelbin
However, they did not restrain themselves because man–eating was a better way to trigger Nine– Headed Serpent‘s genes. It would quickly improve their strength.
They were also preparing for the impending war. The Milky Way Empire had been developing at high speed over the years. It had a powerful army, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Red Finch, and Black Tortoise halls, and the royal guards, which Nimbus trained himself.
These were powerful forces no one could ignore.
The Sangruil Sinners were no match for them.
Otherwise, the empire would not have hunted them for thousands of years.
The Nine–Headed Serpent Clan was restricted by the Universe Convention and could not send troops in large numbers.
The Sangruil Sinners could only feed on humans and activate their Nine–Headed Serpent genes to improve their strength.
In a mega–war that involved the Stella Civilization Galaxy, the strongest person would play a decisive role. Still, it would not work without a backbone force backing them up. Therefore, the Sangruil Sinners had to be well prepared. They had done everything they could to win.
They did not care what it took.
On Light Star, Sangruil‘s king Moe and Nine–Headed Serpent Clan‘s Severus discussed Nimbus‘s intention to hold a state banquet.
Nimbus had somewhat disrupted their plans. Moe‘s original plan was to dismantle the Milky Way Empire from within while improving itself before the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan arrived to back them up.
They would find ways to infiltrate the forces, starting from the weakest to the strongest.
If they could infiltrate a third of the forces, their next step would be much easier. Once their help from Nine–Headed Serpent Clan arrived, they could easily destroy the two partial Eternal Realms rankers of the Barlowe family–Nimbus and Wilfred.
Even without the Barlowe family, with a third of the force on their side, Sangruil could take control of the Milky Way in the shortest time possible, avoiding other complications. Then they could take back everything that belonged to them and enjoy their victory.
The Milky Way Empire would hold a state banquet in three months and send the army and four great halls to patrol the Royal Region.
Sangruil‘s plan to infiltrate it did not seem very plausible.
Even if they did not infiltrate it, Sangruil could destroy the Barlowe family and take control of the Milky Way with the Nine Headed Serpent‘s help.
However, this would take a lot longer, and they would face a lot of unavoidable troubles.
Chapter 1189 Light Star.
A sky-soaring tower.
Two men were sitting across from each other, drinking coffee.
One of them was frowning, while the man opposite him looked relaxed.
The man frowning was Sangruil’s king— Moe, and the other was Severus from the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan.
Unable to resist after a while, Moe asked, “Severus, when will your people from Nine-Headed Serpent Clan arrive? Nimbus has noticed our frequent movements.He should have healed from his injuries by now.The sooner we act, the better for us.”
Severus took a sip of coffee before slowly answering, “King Moe, calm down.You know it takes time to get across the Zone of Nothingness.You can’t rush it.They’ll get here when you get here.”
Severus enjoyed being on top of the Milky Way and the slow pace of life.
Humans were indeed the wisest of all creatures. novelbin
They were unique, and it was no wonder all creatures in the universe wanted to imitate them.He was not the only partial Eternal Realm around, but there was no one stronger than him.
Other than that, Severus was one of the top ten galaxy beasts.
Besides his physical prowess, he had Nine- Headed Serpent Clan’s natural talent.
Even if he could not beat Nimbus, he was confident that he would not lose.
Severus did not take Moe seriously.
If he had the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan’s genes, he would be restricted by the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan.
This was why they had sent him here.
Helping Sangruil take on the Milky Way Empire was one nice way to call it.
To put it bluntly, they were spying on Sangruil to prevent them from breaking their deal.
However, Severus fell in love with the Milky Way after coming here.He did not want to go back to the Beast Galaxy anymore.
Not only were there tons of delicious food to eat, but you could stand at the top of the galaxy and look down on everything.It was something the Beast Galaxy could not give him.
The Beast Galaxy had Eternal Realm elders controlling him, and there were several races that even the Nine-Headed Serpent could not afford to offend.
Besides that, the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan was also at war with its arch-rival, the Star Pythons.He could be sent to war at any moment.It was unknown whether he would survive this.
How easy was life here? Not only was there no danger, but he could do whatever he wanted at any time.
When he finished eating the humans on Light Star, he could continue eating on another living planet.
There were millions of living planets on the Milky Way.It would take forever to finish them.
This was the kind of life Severus wanted.It was unlike the Beast Galaxy, where he had to keep his tail between his legs.
Moe was unsatisfied with Severus’ attitude.
“How can I not worry? Our infiltration plans are now being limited by the empire.If Nimbus is given more time to prepare, we will be in trouble.Severus, you don’t want the Nine- Headed Serpent to be in trouble either, do you?”
“Moe, I think you’re confused.So what if we give them time to prepare? With the two of us around, Sangruil is already invincible.One or two more partial Eternal Realms will be sent over to ensure no mistakes this time.Wipe out the Barlowe family, and everything will be settled, won’t it?” Severus said dismissively.
“Severus, I’m not panicking.The Milky Way has several other powerful forces besides the Barlowe family.Even if we wipe out the Barlowe family, it will be troublesome not to win over these forces.Besides, our partnership with the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan must be kept secret.We can’t let too many forces know about it.It will cause a rebellion among the Milky Way’s people if revealed to the public, and it will become a big deal involving the entire Milky Way.We’re doomed if news of this gets to the Universe Enforcers.It’s very unlikely, but we can’t rule it out either.Thus, we should keep things low key.”
Severus had no choice but put down his teacup and turn serious at Moe’s words.
Universe Enforcer! These were the people who struck fear into the entire universe.
Chapter 1190
Of course, this only applied to strong races with great ambitions.
If you were only a weak race, only trying to get on with your day, there was no need to be afraid.
They would ignore such a petty race. novelbin
However, you had to be careful if you unreasonably launched a war on lower-tier civilization, causing extinction and misery in the pursuit of your ambitions and your race’s development.
You better hoped you did not run into these guys.
Otherwise, getting annihilated could be just a matter of minutes.
The Universe Convention was what the Universe Enforcers came up with.
The goal was to limit the possibility of an aggressive war between galaxies.
One of the main points was they did not allow high-tier civilizations to attack low-tier civilizations without reason just because they were stronger.
Depending on the situation, they would be beaten back to square one or annihilated at worst once the Universe Enforcers found out about this.
Resist them? It was not that they did not think of that.
They just could not do it.
As the law enforcer in charge of the universe’s order, they could not do it without strong backing.
How else could a level 3 civilization like the Milky Way have existed next to a level 5 like Beast Galaxy for so long? If it were not for the Universe Convention and Universe Enforcers, the Beast Galaxy would have taken over and made it its colony long ago.
Neither the Milky Way, Beast Galaxy, nor any forces had any idea where or which force the Universe Enforcers came from.
Rumor had it they were from a level 8 or even level 9 civilization.
However, these were only rumors.
They had not been confirmed.
The Universe Enforcers were like gods to many low civilizations.
They were invincible and could not be insulted.
Some civilizations even treated Universe Enforcers like gods.
However, they were not gods, and they could not be everywhere at once.
When a lot of remote galaxies went to war, the Universe Enforcers could not handle all of them.
After all, the universe was vast.
The number of law enforcers was too limited to cover every corner of the universe.
Law enforcers were rare in galaxies like the Beast Galaxy and the Milky Way.
AS a result, many powerful forces would still take risks but dared not make it too big of a splash.
After all, enforcers were like a sword hanging over their heads.
No one would bet their whole race on it.
A low-civilization galaxy like the Milky Way at the edge of the galaxies was hardly on the enforcers’ radar.
The Universe Enforcer’s attention would not be attracted unless something happened and caused the Milky Way to collapse.
This was only a possibility.
However, it was unlikely.
It was why Sangruil’s king—Moe said they had to prevent the Milky Way’s humans from finding out about Sangruil’s collaboration with the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan.
Otherwise, things would get ugly once the Milky Way united against Sangruil.
Everyone would be doomed if it attracted the Universe Enforcer’s attention.
Meanwhile, Nimbus was holding a state banquet, inviting all forces in the Milky Way.
It was likely he would announce the news.
At this point, he would explain that the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan was humanity’s enemy who treated humans as food.
It would cause all humanity in the Milky Way to gang up against them.
This was why Moe was so nervous.
Chapter 1191
Severus had figured it out too.He had to find a way to stop the state banquet that Nimbus was going to hold on Planet Royal in three months.
The Nine – Headed Serpent Clan loved eating humans.It was their instinct, and it could make them grow faster.
Hence, there was this irreconcilable difference between the two races.
If everyone in the Milky way found out that the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan worked together with Sangruil, there was no doubt that they would unite to fight against them.
At that time, even though they were absolutely capable of winning the fight, it would not be easy.
Other than that, Severus was afraid that he might catch the attention of the Universe Enforcers.He had never seen those bunch of elusive fellows.
However, that did not stop the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan from being afraid of them.
“Since Brother Moe put it that way, I shall use the bloodline secret technique to urge them to hurry over here.If their clan representatives can’t arrive here in three months, I’ll head to the Planet Royal with you and see what the Barlowe family got,”
Severus said in a serious tone.
Indeed!! The moment one heard the name of the Universe Enforcers, even one of the strongest clans, the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan, would chicken out.
Moe secretly snickered.
This was what he wanted.He had to eliminate the Barlowe family as soon as possible and get everything under control.
Besides, he could not expose the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan yet.
As the overlord who had conquered the Milky Way before.
Moe would have known that once his plan of working together with the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan was exposed, he would immediately become the sinner of the Milky Way and everyone would see him as an enemy.
However, there was nothing they could do.If he did not look for foreign aid, Sangruil would slowly drown in the river of history.
This was what Moe would never tolerate.He could not let Sangruil be gone forever while he was leading it.
That was why he chose to make a reckless move and came up with this craziest idea.
If it failed, there was nothing more he could ask for.It would only speed up Sangruil’s downfall.
If he succeeded, then Sangruil would become the overlord of the Milky Way once again.
When the time came, all he had to do was to make the lands near Beast Galaxy a restricted area and secretly give it to the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan.
No one could know about this. novelbin
The Labate family could still be the royal family of the Milky Way.It was a huge price to pay.
However, it was still acceptable.He had the Nina-Headed Serpent Clan backing him up, so Moe could not find any reason that this would fail.He would only fail if he accidentally alerted the Universe
Enforcers.
However, the chances of this happening were very low.
If things really turned out that way.
Then that would be how Sangruil would end.
Moe would not have anything to complain about either.
This was the last crazy thing a king of a nation that was about to fall would do.
“It sets my mind at ease to hear Brother Severus say this.We’re all in the same boat now.It’s not going to benefit us in any way if the boat tips over.That’s why we have to stop Nimbus from organizing the state banquet and eliminate all the risks that might make the plan fail.”
Moe finally put a smile on his face.
“Nice working with you.I hope Brother Moe can keep his promise after we’ve succeeded, otherwise, it’ll be difficult for me to explain to my clan.”
“Don’t worry, Brother Severus.I have to have the capability to do so even if I change my mind.Don’t you think so? Haha…”
The two of them talked to each other for a while.
After that, Severus sent Moe off.
Then, he used his blood to perform a secret technique and contacted the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan.
The communication devices were incapable of forming a connection between two galaxies.
They had to perform a secret technique to be able to contact each other.
Every strong clan would have its own secret technique of communication.
Planet Buck.
David continued to lead Balu and Mia across the old-growth forest on Planet Buck.
They were looking for the Buckeranians who were hiding in the dark.
They soon arrived at a dark place.
David reached out and signaled the two persons behind him to stop.
The Buckeranian’s hidden base was right in front of them.
It was bigger than the other bases scattered across the planet.
Chapter 1192
There were at least hundreds of thousands of them.
The area occupied was much bigger too.
“Balu, there’s a Buckeranian base in front of us.As the head of Planet Buck, it’d be better for you to take the lead,” said David as he turned around.
“Yes! Mr.David!”
Balu took a few steps forward after that.
Then, Balu raised his voice, “Fellow Buckeranians, nice to meet you! I’m Balu, son of Babu, previous head of Planet Buck.Three hundred years ago, Planet Buck encountered a disastrous event.My family and I were sent away from this planet.I finally made it back here today.This time, I’ll lead all of you out of misery and live the peaceful life that we used to live.The Grim family, who brought disaster upon us, has been eliminated.God had mercy on us Buckeranians, and He gave us another chance to start a new life.”
After Balu finished talking, he kneeled on the ground.
Then, both of his arms crossed and rested in front of his chest, with his forehead touching the ground.He made a special prayer gesture that only the Buckeranians would recognize.
Balu quietly kneeled on the ground.
Soon, there were noises in front of him.
There were pairs of bright eyes showing up in the dark.
Heads started popping out one after another on the top of the huge tree.
Slowly, not far ahead from them, a few thousand people started showing themselves.
Young men and women were carrying different kinds of weapons in their hands.
These people were sizing David and the others up with curiosity.
They knew the three of them did not come here to take them away.
The Grim family would send many people here to take them away and make them their mining slaves every time they came here.
It was unlikely that they had only sent the three of them here.
Other than that, the man who was kneeling on the ground performed the Buckeranians’ ancient worship gesture.
This was the gesture the Buckeranians would only use when they worshiped their God every year.
However, these people did not ask any questions out loud.It was as though they were waiting for someone to arrive.
David and Mia did not say anything either.
After a while, the crowd in front of them dispersed and cleared a path.
A gray -haired old man leaning on his walking stick hobbled toward them.
The old man had just shown up, and he asked impatiently, “Who? Who? Who’s Balu?”
Balu heard the old man’s voice.
Only then did he lift his head.
He looked at the old man and replied, “I’m Balu!”
The old man saw the slave mark on Balu’s forehead and immediately came forward to help Balu up.
“Are…Are you really Balu? Babu’s son?”
The old man asked in a tone full of anticipation.
“yes! I’m Balu.My father is Babu,” answered Balu.
“Little Balu! Do you still remember me? I’m Utopia,” The old man looked at him with his eyes welled with tears.
Utopia? Balu tried recalling.
After all, three hundred years had passed since this.
Suddenly, it came to him.
He widened his eyes, and asked in a loud voice, “Uncle Utopia?”
“Yes! Yes! It’s me!”
The old man replied excitedly.
“Uncle Utopia, you…you’re still alive? I thought everyone was dead.I didn’t expect you’d still be alive.That’s great.Sobs…”
Balu got all emotional and suddenly started sobbing in front of everyone.
Utopia was his father’s general officer back then.He was also someone whom Balu was close with.It was just that it had been a long time.
Utopia’s appearance had changed a lot, and Balu did not recognize him.It was hard for Balu to suppress his emotions when he could meet someone he knew after three hundred years.
However, it only took him a moment before he fell silent.
“I was supposed to be dead.Our people couldn’t see any hope for the future.It truly upset me!” Utopia exclaimed.
“Uncle Utopia, it must have been tough for you!”
“It’s nothing! Little Balu, it must have been tougher for you all these years! Let’s go! Let’s head somewhere else and have achat.”
Utopia was about to take Balu deeper into the forest after that.
“Okay!!!”
After Balu answered him, he turned around and looked at David, “Mr.David, please follow me.”
David smiled and nodded.He felt happy for Balu to be able to reunite with someone he knew.
At the same time, it reminded David of the people who were waiting for him to return to Earth.He had to get things done as soon as possible.Then, he would return to the Earth.
That was the only place where David felt like home.
Chapter 1193
The old man and Balu headed deeper into the forest.
David and Mia followed them.
The path was a little dark due to the shade from the canopy’s leaves of the towering trees. However, it did not affect David.
Daylight and the nighttime seemed to be no different for him after he reached this realm.
He had his mind power to support him.
He could even perceive an ant under the tree leaves clearly.
Mia followed closely behind David.
After they crossed a dark tunnel, things slowly began to brighten up.
Along the way, they saw that trees around them were full of Buckeranians standing on the treetops.
All of them looked at David and Mia curiously.
On this planet, other than the Buckeranians who had the slave mark on their forehead, they had only seen those who were sent by the Grim family who took them away and made them their mining slaves. Those men were fierce–looking.
There were no slave marks on David and Mia’s foreheads, and they were not as fierce–looking as the Grim family.
They were beautiful.
They had never seen such a beautiful creature on Planet Buck.
That was why David and Mia attracted all the Buckeranians‘ attention. novelbin
They continued to walk for a while.
The old man and Balu stopped under a giant tree.
The giant tree looked like it had a diameter of at least seven to eight meters.
It could absolutely be considered a giant among all the trees there.
The inner side of the tree had been emptied, and there were stairs in it. One could climb the stairs and make his way up to the treehouse on the treetop.
The old man led Balu into the tree. Then, they made their way up the stairs.
David and Mia followed them into the tree too.
As for the Buckeranians who were behind them, they could only stop outside the tree. They were not allowed to enter without permission.
They went all the way up.
A few minutes later, David entered the treehouse on the treetop. The furniture in the house was simple.
There was a wooden round table surrounded by a dozen wooden chairs. There were a few small square tables beside it. Each table had two chairs next to it, and a set of teacups on it.
The old man walked toward a small square table and sat down on the chair, then he said, “Take a seat!”
David and the others made themselves at home. They sat down on the chairs beside him.
“Balu, who’re they?” The old man asked after the four of them sat down.
“Uncle Utopia, they’re the saviors of Planet Buck. Without them, this day would never have come for us Buckeranians.” Balu looked at David and answered gratefully.
“Oh? What happened?” The old man wondered.
After that, Balu started telling his story.
It all started the moment his family had been taken away.
They became slaves and worked served the Grim family for three hundred years. Meanwhile, Balu’s parents could not accept the fact that they had fallen from grace and become slaves. They got so depressed that they eventually fell ill and passed away.
Balu was left alone at the death’s door. At first, Balu had lost all hope too.
This was until David showed up and destroyed the Grim family. He rescued Balu and followed him back to Planet Buck. He continued to save the Buckeranians who were enslaved by the Grim family.
One could say that without David, the Buckeranians would slowly die and become extinct after hundreds or thousands of years.
“Balu, what did you say? The Grim family on this planet had been killed? All the mining slaves had been freed?” The old man grabbed Balu’s hand and asked excitedly.
“Yes, Uncle Utopia! Not only were the Grim family members on this planet eliminated, but the whole Grim family was wiped out by Mr. David. From today onwards, Planet Buck belongs to us. We can live
the peaceful life we had a hundred years ago, and no one will ever disturb us again,” said Balu as tears welled up in his eyes.
Chapter 1194
“Is… Is… Is this true?”
“Yes! It’s true! Uncle Utopia, you can follow me there and see for yourself.”
“Hahaha… Justice has been served! I thought the
Buckeranians would never be able to stand up again for the rest of our lives. I could never die peacefully knowing that. I didn’t expect the Grim family would pay for things they did so soon. I’m so happy to hear that. Hahaha…”
The old man started laughing loudly after he made sure what Balu told him was true.
Balu lived his life as a slave working for the Grim family. Were the Buckeranians left on Planet Buck not being enslaved too?
The fact that Planet Buck used to have a population of a hundred million in the past, but suffered a sharp decline in their population such that there were only a few million today, showed how the Buckeranians had lived during the past three hundred years. ‘
They lived in fear every day.
They would die if they fought against them. If they did not fight, they had no choice but to become mining slaves who worked day and night.
After the old man finished laughing, he stood up and walked toward David. He kneeled on the floor and bowed to him three times respectfully.
David did not stand up to stop him.
He accepted it.
Even though the old man was very old.
As David’s combat reached the partial Eternal Realm, becoming the most powerful person in the Milky Way, his state of mind had changed too.
As the saying went, high achievers tended to be successful early in life. Someone powerful should be respected.
Besides, he was the one who saved millions of Buckeranians on Planet Buck. David felt comfortable accepting the old man’s respect.
After that, the old man said excitedly, “Thank you Mr. David for saving Planet Buck. Utopia will never forget what you have done for the Buckeranians.”
“Sir, you don’t have to do this! The Grim family has done many evil deeds. The day would come for them to get their punishment. Someone would’ve done so even if it wasn’t me. The reason I killed them was that we had a score to settle. I just ended up saving all of you in the process,” David replied calmly.
“Mr. David, in any case, you saved us and gave Buckeranians the chance to survive. Otherwise, we’ll probably slowly disappear as time passes, and we’d eventually become extinct. I would like to thank you on behalf of all Buckeranians.”
The old man continued to bow at David a few times, only then did he slowly rise to his feet.
Balu immediately came forward to help him up.
“Uncle Utopia, let’s go outside and tell everyone about this!
Our people have been bottling up their emotions for so long, so we should spread the good news and celebrate. Then, I’ll leave to look for the others.”
“Sure, sure, sure! I’ll gather everyone here and tell them the good news. You don’t have to go to all that trouble to look for the other Buckeranians. I know how to contact them. I only have to tell them the truth and they’ll show up.”
“Then without further ado, let’s get started.”
“Okay!”
As the previous general officer of Babu, the head of Planet Buck, Utopia was a prestigious figure.
Not only did all the Buckeranians living in the base have to listen to him, but he also wielded enormous influence in other bases.
The reason why the Buckeranians were divided into several groups was that splitting up could prevent every one of them from getting killed by the Grim family.
Utopia led the three of them out of the giant tree. He gathered all the Buckeranians and announced the news of the destruction of the Grim family.
All Buckeranians immediately erupted in cheers and applause. novelbin
At the same time, everyone was weeping tears of joy.
They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Then, Utopia began contacting the other groups that were hidden away in the dark.
A day later, all Buckeranians came out from their hidden base and started to step out into the sunlight.
They hid in the dark, and they dared not to leave there.
Every base leader began to head to the place where the Grim family had stayed before.
Balu showed his imposing aura as their head. After he gave an enthusiastic speech, the rebuilding of the whole Planet Buck began and the Buckeranians continued with the tasks that remained undone.
After the bodies that were left outside were gathered, they were buried in the ground.
Now, all Buckeranians worked with a will. It had been a long time since there were smiles on everyone’s faces.
David felt relieved to see Planet Buck getting back on track. His work here was done.
Chapter 1195
Three days later.
David found Balu and told him that he would be leaving Planet Buck soon.
“Mr. David, you’re leaving soon?” Balu asked.
“Yes! Planet Buck has gotten back on track. I should leave too,” replied David.
“Mr. David, can you please stay for another day? I’ll leave with you after getting everything in order.”
“Balu! You should stay here. The Buckeranians need you.”
“Mr. David! I must leave with you. This is not only to repay your kindness, but it’s also for this.”
Balu said as he pointed at the slave mark on his forehead, then he continued, “The only possible way to lift the limitations of the slave mark is to follow you, only then my people will be truly freed.”
David looked at the sincere expression on Balu’s face.
He knew he had made up his mind.
“Alright then! I’ll give you one more day to prepare. We’ll leave Planet Buck tomorrow. Since you’ll be following me around in the future, stop calling me Mr. David. Call me David, like how Mia does!”
David turned around and left after that.
Balu, who was behind him, bowed and thanked him, “Thank you, David!”
At night.
David was about to rest.
“Knock–knock–knock!!!”
There was a knock on the door.
“Come in!” said David.
Balu pushed the door open and came in. Someone was behind him, and it turned out to be the old man, Utopia.
“I’m sorry! David, sorry to disturb you,” Balu apologized.
“It’s still early! What’s the matter?” David asked.
“Uncle Utopia said he needed to talk to you.”
David shifted his gaze to Utopia.
At this moment, Utopia said to Balu, “Little Balu, I have something to discuss with Mr. David. Please step out for a moment.”
“Okay! David, Uncle Utopia, take your time.”
Balu turned around and left the room after that, and he closed the door behind him.
“Old master, what’s the matter?” David asked with curiosity.
David was confused. Why did the old man come looking for him? Were they not familiar with each other?
Even though he saved the Buckeranians.
The old man kneeled before him and thanked him. What else could there be?
Utopia bowed to David first, and only then did he speak, “We, the Buckeranians, shall never forget Mr. David’s great
kindness and what you’ve done for Planet Buck. Your name will go down in our history and be passed on to the next generation. The next generation of Planet Buck will remember those dark days and bear your kindness in mind.”
David did not know if he should cry or laugh. That was what he wanted to tell him.
Was there a need to pay a visit and tell him about this at this hour?
“Old Master, there’s no need to do so. It’s no trouble at all, and I’ll probably forget about this soon.”
“Mr. David has done many good deeds. It’s normal to forget about them. Even though it wasn’t a problem to you, it means a lot to Planet Buck. It’s a chance for rebirth and for us to start a new life again.”
Utopia paused for a moment, and continued, “Mr. David, little Balu will be staying with you. Please take good care of little Balu. I know he’d like to follow you around to see the galaxy. He’d be looking for a way to lift the curse. I know it’s not going to be easy for him. I’ll leave little Balu to you.”
“No problem, Old Master. I won’t let anything happen to Balu since he’s with me. As for the slave mark, it’s an evil curse that has been cast over the whole planet. I’m sorry. There’s nothing I can do either,” David shook his head and replied.
“Mr. David, you don’t have to feel sorry. This is our fate. I came looking for you today not just to express my gratitude, there’s also something I’d like to give to you.” novelbin
Utopia reached out for the shirt pocket in his arms, and he was about to take something out.
David immediately rejected him when he heard the old man was going to give him something. “It’s okay, Old Master. I didn’t help you all to get something in return. Don’t do this. I’ve got everything I need.”
Chapter 1196
Come on, he was at partial Eternal Realm rank now. What else could he not have?
Other than some lavish points, he had everything he needed. novelbin
Besides, what good stuff could a small place like Planet Buck have?
However, David had just finished saying tehis sentence when his attention was immediately attracted by the stuff in the box that Utopia was carrying.
‘What’s this?
‘An oval–shaped stone?”
The moment Utopia opened the box, a refreshing breath immediately filled the room.
It made David feel like his cells were dancing happily in his body. He wanted to let out a comfortable moan so badly.
It was his first time encountering such a situation.
This must be something good!
“Mr. David, please don’t reject it. There’s nothing we can do to repay your kindness and what you’ve done for Planet Buck. This is something our people found in one of the mines ten years ago. I was on the verge of death at that time. The stone was handed to me after that. I liked it very much, so I’ve been keeping it beside me all the time. I didn’t expect that my body would heal miraculously ever since that day, and I’ve been alive until this day.
“Slowly, I found out that it was the stone that was working miracles. Even though I have no idea what it is, I know it’s something good. Perhaps Mr. David will need it one day in the future. This is a gift from the Buckeranians. Please keep it, Mr. David. If you refuse to accept our gift, I’m not going to stand up today.”
Utopia kneeled on the ground and lifted the stone in his hands above his head. If David did not take it from him, he would keep on kneeling on the ground and would not stand up.
David looked at Utopia, who was kneeling not far away from him.
He could not help but let out a sigh.
David had always subconsciously believed a saying.
A good–hearted person was a grateful person.
The honest Buckeranians were like that.
He wondered how the Grim family could have done that to them.
However, families like the Grim family who would get their way, by hook or by crook, for the sake of their interests did not have any sympathy for others.
They could do anything as long as it was beneficial for the family.
There were many forces like them in the Royal Region. The Tuffin family was one of them too.
The Earth gave Pavan a warm welcome when he arrived there back then.
No one would have expected that he was up to something evil, and he wanted to make everyone on Earth his slaves.
If it were not for the system announcing it on time, the Tuffin family could have probably planted the slave marks on the people living on Earth.
At that time, David’s efforts would have been in vain no matter how hard he tried to struggle.
Earth would not have ended up any better than Planet Buck.
David did not want Utopia’s belongings.
However, the breath that the stone gave out was too attractive. He thought the stone could come in handy in the future if he took it with him.
“Old Master, you don’t have to do this!”
“Mr. David, please accept it. Otherwise, we, Buckeranians, will feel uneasy about it,” insisted Utopia.
David had no choice but to stand up. He walked toward Utopia and reached out to take the box from him.
The stone had just fallen into David’s hands when the system automatically popped up.
There were three big words written on it.
‘Stone of Life”
Chapter 1197
Stone of Life?
What was that?
Curiosity made David continue to read the introduction stated below the system!
[Stone of Life is a special substance nurtured in the universe. It’s precious and it’s categorized as a rare stone and one of the treasures of Heaven and Earth.
[Formation: It is extremely hard to form the Stone of Life. It is formed with the crystallization of the Water of Life…]
[Function: Stone of Life gives out a strong breath of life. It can extend the life of all living things in the Universe after absorbing it…]
[Value: 5 trillion Galaxy dollars.]
The system gave a detailed introduction of the Stone of Life.
However, David briefly went through it and he eventually stopped shifting his gaze to focus on how much the stone was worth. 5 trillion Galaxy dollars?
Although it was incomparable to the Nine Turning Star Iron, it was still extraordinary!
David did not expect to run into such a rare treasure on this ultra–small planet.
Even though the Stone of Life could do little help to David now, something that could extend one’s life would prove to be useful in the future.
Moreover, the main point was, David could gain fifty thousand lavish points from it.
This was what David needed the most at the moment.
“Old master, are you sure you want to give this to me? Do you have any idea what this is?” David asked.
“Mr. David, since I’ve brought it out, there’s no reason for me to take it back. Besides, no matter what it is, it’s incomparable to everything you’ve done for us,” answered Utopia.
“This is the Stone of Life. It’s one of the rarest stones amongst the treasures of Heaven and Earth in the Universe. Your health might deteriorate and your days will be numbered after giving this to me.” novelbin
“Mr. David, I have no regrets to be able to live until the day our people regained our freedom. You don’t have to worry about me.”
David shot Utopia a glance, pondered for a moment, and said, This is a precious stone. I like it too.”
“I’m glad that Mr. David likes it. I’m really glad that Mr. David likes it,” said Utopia with a smile on his face.
The smile did not look good on his face which was full of wrinkles.
However, David felt a feeling of being close to him.
“But I can’t take what’s yours for nothing,” said David as he shook his head.
“How can you say that it’s for nothing? You’re Planet Buck’s savior. It’s an honor that Mr. David likes our gift,” Utopia immediately replied.
“Old master, this is my way of doing things. It’s nothing to offer some help to you all. I can’t take something so precious. from you. I’ve got an idea, and let’s see what you think of it! If it’s a deal, I’ll
take the Stone of Life. If it doesn’t work, then I can’t take it.”
“Please go ahead, Mr. David!”
Then, David told him what he had in mind.
He would pay a certain amount of Galaxy dollars to buy the Stone of Life.
However, the money would not be given directly to Utopia.
It was useless to them.
They were too far from the Royal Region.
Furthermore, if he gave him 5 trillion Galaxy dollars at once and asked them to spend it in the Royal Region, they might not be able to make it back alive.
Those who had the slave marks on their forehead were meant to be lower in status.
If someone inferior had so much money on them, would he not be painting a bright red target on their backs.
Hence, David came up with a plan.
He would give the money to East League International Investment Limited Company as Planet Buck’s special fund. Then, he would ask the company to purchase everything
Planet Buck needed and deliver them here.
It would be best to inform Princess Astrid beforehand so that he could purchase some advanced military weapons from the Royal Region and get Planet Buck armed to the teeth.
He could buy some genetic drugs for the Buckeranians to awaken their potential abilities.
Previously, when the Grim family took over the planet, they used it once but diluted the genetic drugs, which led to side effects.
The Buckeranians that took the drugs were no longer alive.
The current Buckeranians were the generations after them, and they had never used it before. Therefore, they could take genetic drugs that had no side effects and awaken their powers.
That way, not only could it increase the combat ability of Planet Buck, but David could also gain another fifty thousand lavish points.
Killing two birds with one stone. Perfect!
Chapter 1198
5 trillion Galaxy Dollars could get an ultra–small planet with a population of a few million armed to the teeth. Everyone would be armed with weapons.
It could even ensure that every Buckeranian would own a heavy mecha. novelbin
That way, Planet Buck’s combat ability would increase exponentially.
Utopia fell silent after he heard what David said.
He initially thought of giving the Stone of Life to David to repay his kindness in saving Planet Buck.
However, it was difficult for him to reject David’s suggestion.
There was a chance to make Planet Buck stronger and more competitive. They would be able to protect themselves when enemies came.
As the ruler of Planet Buck, there was no way Utopia could turn him down.
Utopia knew how it felt to not be able to defend yourself when someone was attacking your planet. He watched his people die one by one, and their population which had numbered nearly a hundred million had decreased over time, leaving only a few million left. Yet, there was nothing he could do.
However, if Utopia agreed to it, it would contradict his original intention.
Therefore, he was struggling internally now. He did not know how to answer David’s question at that moment.
David could see that Utopia was struggling too.
Hence, he said, “Old Master, if you refuse this, I’m not taking the stone. Money doesn’t matter to me, but it’s essential for Planet Buck, which is in such a situation now. Think about it. If you disagree with me, I have no choice but to return you the stone no matter how much I like it.”
After that, David handed the box back to him.
Utopia had been living for hundreds of years. How could he not understand what David meant?
He was forcing him to agree to it!
At this moment, the old man bowed deeply to David with tears in his eyes and replied, “Mr. David, I’d like to thank you on behalf of all Buckeranians. Planet Buck will go through hell and high water to come to you in the future.”
David immediately helped Utopia up.
“Old Master, you don’t have to do so. Your stone will be of great help to me. I should be the one thanking you.
They finally managed to hammer out a deal.
David contacted Princess Astrid first and told him that his chamber of commerce would like to purchase some military supplies that could not be bought on the market.
Astrid promised to help without a second thought.
David’s matters were a big deal to her.
As the emperor’s favorite princess in the Milky Way Empire, even though she usually did not interfere in these matters, she
only had to give her instructions and every department in the empire would have to listen to her and get it done.
After David received Astrid’s reply.
He contacted the Concord family and deposited 5 trillion Galaxy dollars. He asked them to follow his instructions and purchase everything they could get in the empire and deliver them to Planet Buck. Also, he told them that he had already used his connections, and sent Planet Buck’s location to them too.
The deal with the Stone of Life had been closed.
David could not wait to open the system.

Sure enough, fifty thousand lavish points had been added.
Besides, the East League Chamber of Commerce had been making a move, and he spent some money on it.
His lavish points that he accumulated had reached more than ninety thousand.
David only needed ten thousand lavish points to up his rank and reach the legendary Eternal Realm.
David looked at the numbers in the system. He could not help but curl his lips and smile!
Chapter 1199 His work at Planet
Buck had already finished.David initially showed sympathy for Balu, and that was why he accompanied Balu here.He did not expect to gain a lot from this trip.
Not only did he gain a treasure, the Stone of Life, th, he even gained fifty thousand lavish points.He made a big step in leveling up to the next rank. novelbin
He believed it would not take long for him before he truly became invincible in the Milky Way.
The next morning, David, Mia, and Balu left Planet Buck with a few million Buckeranians watching them and paying their respects.
The state banquet would be held in three months.It would be too early for them to go back there now.
David went through the information the time traveler, the old David, had left in his mind.He found an indigenous planet that was not far away from them.
Based on how fast the Galaxy Warship could move, it would only take them half a month to arrive.He wondered if the people there had planted the slave marks.
In any case, he should head there first.
The Galaxy Warship faced a direction and headed there at full speed.
The Royal Region slowly began to get back on track after the empire’s announcement.иσνєℓєвσσк. ¢σмIt was believed that no Sangruil Sinners would dare to show up with troops of the empire’s army and the four great halls of the empire patrolling there.
At this moment, in an arena on one of the trading planets in the Royal Region.
Two giant beasts were fighting and biting each other crazily.
The audience surrounding them was shouting.
“Kill him!”
“Come on, bite him to death!”
“B*stard! F*cking bite him!”
“Dumb*ss, don’t bite his thigh.Can’t you f*cking hear me?”
“Haven’t you eaten yet? Your bite force is too weak!”
Soon…one of the beasts let out a painful cry and the battle of the beasts came to an end.
“Hahaha…I won! I won! I’m rich!”
“I’m down on my luck for betting on this beast.”
Some of the audience lost, and some of them won.
Everyone placed their bets.
Some of them won happily, and there would certainly be some who lost and were down in the dumps.
A scruffy young man looked at the bet ticket in his hands.He collapsed in a heap on the ground, as though he had lost all his strength.He mumbled, “It’s over! Everything’s over!”
After a while, two middle-aged men walked toward him.
One of them kicked him and said, “Boy! How is it? Did you win? Pay us back now.Otherwise, we’re going to break your leg.”
“Look at his face.He must have lost again.Does he have money to pay us back?”
Another man smiled and answered him.
“He’s got no money to pay us back? Alright then! Go and fight.We’re square regardless of if you win or lose.”
When the young man heard them asking him to fight, he stood up and shuddered with a terrified expression, “No! I’m not going!”
Were they serious when they asked him to join the gladiator battle? Was that not courting death? Even if he got lucky and won the battle, he would be severely injured or disabled.He could never agree to this.
“You’re not going? Then pay us!”
“I’m broke! I lost all my money,” replied the young man.
“You’re broke? Then why aren’t you joining the battle? Perhaps we should break your limbs and feed them to the beasts.It’s up to you! ”
The middle-aged man sneered.The young man immediately ‘thumped” kneeled on the ground, and begged for mercy, “Please let me go! Please! I promise I’ll pay you as soon as I get the money.”
“Let you go? What did you say when you borrowed the money from us? And now you’re begging us to let you go? Listen, it’s too late! Take him away!”
Chapter 1200
The two men were about to take the young man away.
The young man knew what would happen to him after being taken away. He immediately struggled, trying to escape.
However, how could the two middle–aged men let him get what he wanted?
Each of them grabbed one of his arms, lifted him, and took him away by force.
Not only did the audience around them not stop them, but they also looked like they were gloating at the other’s misfortune. It was none of their business.
“Let me go! Let me go! Let me meet your boss! I have an important piece of information to sell to him. It’s super big news. You’ll regret not taking me to see him. He’ll kill you when he finds out about it,” shouted the young man as he struggled.
The two of them ignored him and continued lifting him and took them away.
“It’s true! It’s true! I swear it’s true this time! Please trust me this time! I’m willing to get hung by the neck if I lied.”
The two men stopped and exchanged glances with each other. Then, they asked, “Really?”
“Yes! Yes! It’s definitely true!” The young man immediately replied. novelbin
“Kid, you’d better think about it. If Boss finds out you lied to
him, not only will your life turn into a living hell, we’ll get into trouble too. Don’t blame us for getting your family involved in this when the time comes,” One of the men warned him.
“Don’t worry, sir. I won’t disappoint you! Your boss will reward you when he finds out what kind of information I’m giving him,” The young man guaranteed. Family?
Did he have any family members left now?
They were all gone.
He did not even dare to tell others his name. He was afraid that he would get himself killed.
It was just that even though he lost his home, he could not change his bad habits.
Everything he took from his home back then could have been enough for him to live out the rest of his life.
It was a pity that he spent it all on the battle show, and he even got himself into debt that went up to his eyeballs.
If it was not because there was nothing else he could do this time.
He would have lived in seclusion and not come out forever.
He lived a lavish lifestyle back then.
Now, he was down and out.
He only thought of selling the piece of information he found out about his family. Then, he would find a quiet place to live and not come out forever after he paid the debt.
The young man was brought to the VIP room on top of the Colosseum.
The three of them had just arrived at the door. They heard an indistinct woman’s moan coming out of the room.
“Dong–dong–dong!”
One of the men knocked on the door.
“Who is it?!” An impatient voice came from inside the room.
“Boss! Someone wants to see you. He said he’s got big news to tell you.”
After a while, noises were coming from the VIP room again.
“Come in!”
The three of them pushed the door open and entered the room.
What came into sight was a man holding two beautiful women in his arms, fondling them.
The women’s cheeks were red.
However, the young man looked drained. His face was a little pale. It must have been the consequences of overindulging in lust.
“Boss!”
The two middle–aged men greeted him respectfully.
“Are you the one looking for me?” The man ignored the two of them. He turned to look at the young man and asked.
“Yes!”
“If it’s not as exciting as you said, you’re dead! Say it!”
“My name’s Floyd Tuffin!” said the young man.
“Then? Is this what you called big news?”
“The Tuffin family, one of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way Empire!” The young man continued.
“F*ck! Don’t tell me you’re from one of the eight prominent families, the Tuffin family.”
“You’re right! I’m one of them,” The young man said in a serious tone.
Chapter 1201
The young man in the VIP room was named Harlan Busch. He was a direct descendant of one of the major families in the Royal Region.
Even though the Busch family was far from the eight prominent families, they were still pretty powerful in the Royal Region.
Harlan was not very talented, so he would use twice the effort to only get half the results during his cultivation. Moreover, he was very lazy, and he loved women. He could not go a day without sleeping with a woman.
Because of this, he threw the handle after the blade and began to make a fortune in the family‘s sphere of influence by relying on the family‘s reputation.
Despite this, Harlan was very discerning, which was how he got to where he was right now. He would never risk offending someone he did not know the background of.
After all, there were too many people in the Royal Region, the center of the entire galaxy, that he could not afford to offend.
If he was slightly careless, his entire family might be wiped out.
When Harlan heard the young man that he was from one of the eight prominent families, the Tuffin family, he burst into laughter.
He said sarcastically, “Are you really from the Tuffin family? Are you kidding me? The Dallarosa family has wiped out the Tuffin family, and they have already replaced the Tuffin family as one of the eight prominent families.”
“It is because the Dallarosa family wiped out the Tuffin family that I showed up here incognito. Furthermore, the information I want to share with you is one of the absolute secrets of my family,” Floyd said.
“Oh? Let‘s hear it.” Harlan was interested.
“I can tell you, but you must settle all my debts and give me a large sum of money after that. Besides, are you sure you want all of them to know it as well?”
Harlan stared at Floyd. After making sure he was not joking, Harlan said, “You should leave now.”
“Yes, Boss!”
The two middle–aged men and two gorgeous women said at the same time.
Soon after, they left the room respectfully.
At this moment, only the young man and Floyd were left in the VIP Room.
“Can you tell me now? As long as you can bring me benefits, I‘ll agree with everything you ask for.”
Floyd took a deep breath before saying, “Pavan, the eldest son of the Tuffin family, has been exploring outside all these years. Recently, he sent a message back saying he found an indigenous living planet on the brink of the Milky Way. However, there was a peak Planet Ranker on the planet, and the aborigines had very high talent. It would be unimaginably valuable if he could plant his slave mark on this planet. Thus, he asked the family to subdue them.
“After the family got news about this, they immediately realized this would be the hope for the family to rise. Hence, they recalled all the heirs to elect a new head for the younger generation. Then, they asked Lord Adan to bring the head of the younger generation over. However, Lord Adan was met with an attack from the Dallarosa family while on the way. In the end, he died, and you know the rest. The
Dallarosa family destroyed my family, but they had no idea about this. If I had another choice, I wouldn‘t have told you about this.”
Floyd told Harlan this because he had no choice.
Even though he was a direct descendant, he was the most inconspicuous one. His family died while going on a mission for the family. By right, this top secret would have been taken to the grave.
Floyd only knew this because he stole this information from the top secret vault of the family after the family was wiped out. novelbin
He wanted to go himself, but he did not have the power to do so.
Therefore, he hid this in his heart. He had no other choice today and would die if he did not say it. He might even live a life worse than death. Hence, he could only use this information in exchange for his life.
As Harlan heard what Floyd said, his breathing started to get faster.
Clearly, he was very shocked after hearing this news.
Since Floyd dared to tell him about this, it would mean Floyd was confident about this news. He knew the consequences if he dared to lie.
How talented would an indigenous living planet with a peak Planet Ranker be?
If Harlan planted his slave mark on the planet and forced the people to drink genetic drugs to stimulate their potential before feeding it to the master, he would turn from a good–for–nothing to a genius.
How did he run into such an alarming yet fortuitous meeting?
Chapter 1202
It seemed that Harlan was about to prosper.
Even though Harlan was not very talented and had given up on cultivating, this did not mean he did not hope of becoming stronger and getting his family to value him.
He could not work hard to make up for his talent. He only gave up because he did not have a choice.
Now that he had such an excellent opportunity to increase his talent and trample on the first and second heirs of the family, how would he give up on it?
Coincidentally, the Tuffin family got such a good chance but was wiped out by the Dallarosa family during that
critical moment. Due to this, he was the only one to receive this news.
‘Could it be that I‘m the true chosen one?‘
At this moment, Harlan‘s distinguished ambition was suddenly reignited again. His face turned red from excitement.
If he brought his people to plant his slave mark in secret, who would dare to look down on him in the future?
Now, Harlan‘s sight was not just limited to his family. He might even become a super genius who was on the same level as Gunnar, a genius in the Royal Region. By then, he would be the one everyone looked up to and simultaneously gain the admiration of countless women.
When he thought about this, Harlan felt his blood burning
However, he had to plan this properly.
Firstly, he could not leak this.
Secondly, he could not let his family know about this.
If not, he would not get a share of this.
Therefore, he could only do this in secret.
He needed to be careful on a planet with a peak Planet Ranker. He was not that person‘s opponent at all.
“Are you telling the truth?” Harlan asked after he calmed down.
“Of course! How would I dare to lie to you about something like this unless I don‘t want to live anymore,” Floyd answered calmly.
“It‘s good that you know. Where is this planet? What‘s the location?”
“You will let me go as per your promise after I tell you and give me a large sum of money, right?”
“Not now. How will I know if you‘re making this up to fool me?”
“You…”
Floyd was furious.
Then, he asked quickly, “When will you fulfill your promise?”
At this moment, Harlan laughed and said, “Floyd, my brother, we can do this slowly. As long as you‘re telling the truth, I promise you will have unlimited riches for the rest of your life.”
“I already had unlimited riches. Right now, I want to leave with the money and find somewhere to live incognito. I never want to come out again.”
“Alright, if that‘s the case, you should come with us. As soon as we get there and plant my slave mark successfully, I can give you everything you want. Even if you return to me in the future when you are at the end of your rope, I will still do everything in my power to help you. What do you think?”
“Alright, it‘s a deal.” Floyd agreed after he thought about
He knew he could not leave now.
If he were in Harlan‘s shoes, he would not let the other party leave either.
“Haha! How straightforward! Floyd, my brother, I need some time to prepare, so you might have to suffer for a bit. Aside from not being able to leave, you can ask for anything. I will give you all the money and women you want,” Harlan laughed.
“I want the two women just now,” Floyd said.
“Haha! Alright, it‘s just a small matter.”
After Harlan said that, he got up and walked to Floyd. Then, he left after patting Floyd‘s shoulder. The moment he opened the door to leave, the two women came in and closed the door behind them.
Chapter 1203
David and the others continued to head to their destination. He still did not know Earth‘s location had been exposed by the only surviving member of the Tuffin family.
He thought that as long as he killed all of the Tuffin family‘s core, no one would know where Earth was. However, he had missed the others.
At the same time, David also made a mistake hiding the Earth‘s location using the system.
After hiding it, they could not find Earth on the galaxy map.
That way, no one would know that Earth was already a high–class citizen planet of the Milky Way Empire.
This made Harlan even more sure that Earth was an indigenous living planet.
At this moment, he was coming up with various ways to buy Cursed Blood Beads secretly. At the same time, he was recruiting dependable masters.
His family had Stellar Rankers and even masters at Universe Realm.
However, Harlan could not tell his family about this.
If not, his family would take away what was rightfully his.
Even if they gave Harlan some compensation after the deed was done, it was nothing compared to an indigenous living planet.
It was also an indigenous living planet with a peak Planet Ranker, so it would be hard to determine the value of.
Currently, Harlan‘s ambition, which had been long diminished, was once again starting to rise. He was not satisfied with just spending his time idly and waiting for his death. He wanted to be stronger. He wanted to step on the other heirs of the family. He wanted to be the most dazzling person in the Royal Region. However, Harlan planned to head to Earth with his most low–level vessel so he would not attract so much attention.
Even if this would be more time–consuming, he could arrive on Earth silently and not attract any attention.
Half a month later, Harlan had made all the preparations. He secretly brought Floyd and the others away from the Royal Region and headed to Earth.
However, judging from the speed of their lowest–level vessel, they would only arrive in three or four months. At this moment, David and the others reached their first destination in their Galaxy Warship.
As they looked at the small living planet within, David scanned it with his mind power. He could immediately understand everything on the planet.
After scanning it, David let out a sigh of relief.
‘Phew! This planet has not been discovered, and it‘s not been planted with a slave mark.‘
Right now, it was still self–sufficient.
The technological advancement also seemed to be slightly higher than Earth. However, it was not by much. It seemed only to be a level 0.8 or 0.9 civilization.
David asked the Galaxy Warship to descend on the planet slowly.
He did not bring his people down when he landed on a huge grassland. Instead, they waited inside the Galaxy Warship for the people of the planet to approach them.
He believed they must have discovered his slow arrival. Even the Earth‘s technology would have noticed them.
Moreover, this planet was a little bit more advanced than the earth.
Boom!
Sure enough, not long after, the violent sound of thunder was heard in the distance.
Soon, countless fighter jets approached from far and near like bees, densely covering the sky above the Galaxy Warship.
The shapes of these fighter jets were slightly different from those on Earth, but their structure was similar.
They were all designed to reduce air friction.
Unlike fighter jets on Earth, these fighter jets could hover in the air and not fall.
This would be impossible on Earth.
They had to keep flying, or else they would fall from the sky.
Although Earth‘s level of civilization was only 0.1 or 0.2 grades worse than this planet, there was still a certain technological gap.
Chapter 1204
After the fighter jets stopped in the air, they aimed their countless guided missiles at the Galaxy Warship.
However, the people of this planet had no idea what a Galaxy Warship was. Shooting these guided missiles at the ship was like mosquitoes trying to penetrate an iron plate.
It would not do anything to the Galaxy Warship.
In reality, the fighter jet pilots were shocked when they saw the Galaxy Warship.
‘What is this huge thing?
‘It‘s huge!
‘How grand!
‘How imposing!
‘It doesn‘t look like something our planet can make.‘
Right now, they were very nervous.
This thing should belong to aliens.
However, they had no idea if the ship was a friend or foe.
At the same time, they sent the scene back to the control center so that the big shots of this planet could see it.
As David looked at the fighter jets in the sky, he knew it was time to get out.
The Galaxy Warship‘s hatch opened, shocking the fighter jet pilots.
They gripped their missile launcher tightly in their hands.
They could shoot the guided missiles the moment they noticed something was wrong.
David brought Mia to the top of the Galaxy Warship. Meanwhile, Balu stayed in the control room to learn how to steer the ship.
From now on, David would hand the control room over to Balu. That way, he would feel more at ease.
The heads of this planet were all staring at the Galaxy Warship. When they saw two humans disembark and not some peculiar–looking creatures, they all sighed a sigh of relief. When David got to the top of the ship, he smiled and said to the fighter jets in the sky, “Don‘t be scared. I come in peace.”
“Who are you? Why did you come here?” One of the fighter jet pilots asked.
“I‘m from a level 3 civilization, and I am here to invite you to join the Milky Way Empire,” David answered.

“Who are you? Why did you come here?” One of the fighter jet pilots asked.
“I‘m from a level 3 civilization, and I am here to invite you to join the Milky Way Empire,” David answered.
This was what he planned to say.
No one would believe him if he said he was here to save them.
Hence, he said he was from the Milky Way empire.
If he could help them upgrade this planet to a high–class citizen planet of the Milky Way Empire, no one would dare to break the empire‘s rule and plant their slave mark on it even if they discovered it in the future.
Normally, no one would come if David labeled this planet on the empire‘s galaxy map because they would only come in vain if they did.
People would only go to unlabeled places on the galaxy map when exploring.
When the people heard David come from a level 3 civilization, they were stunned.
They knew they were not even at a level 1 civilization.
Now that they were meeting someone from a level 3 civilization, they knew they would not have the power to resist.
No wonder the other party could make such a huge, domineering, and formidable spacecraft. novelbin
It seemed that they were from a higher civilization.
“Why are you inviting us to join the empire? What do you want? If you don‘t explain yourself properly, we won‘t believe you. We believe there is no free lunch in this world.”
These people were more alert than earthlings. The earthlings were not so vigilant when Pavan landed on Earth back then.
David smiled bitterly in his heart.
‘How should I f*cking explain to them?
‘Should I tell them outsiders will invade you soon and plant a bloodline curse on you, and I was entrusted by someone to help you?
‘I don‘t think anyone will believe me”
Chapter 1205
“Who‘s the person in charge of this planet? Tell him to talk to me. You won‘t understand even if I explain to you. You can‘t make these decisions anyway,” David asked.
“I‘m sorry. If you don‘t explain to us, there won‘t be anyone coming to talk to you because we can‘t be sure if you‘re friend or foe.”
David was in a dilemma now. He shook his head helplessly and said, “I genuinely come in peace. Why won‘t you believe me?”
“You have to show proof that you don‘t mean any harm. Not a single person would believe a stranger completely if they were in this situation, right? Please understand!”
Perhaps the Galaxy Warship looked too domineering and formidable, and David was from a level 3 civilization, which led to the person speaking very courteously.
David figured that this person was being fair, but how would he prove himself?
After thinking about it, David looked around and spotted a huge mountain peak hundreds of kilometers away on his right. It was very eye–catching on this flat plain.
He suddenly had an idea.
Since the other party did not believe him, he should be straightforward. He would show some of his strength to show these people that if he wanted to harm them, they would not have any way to resist.
That way, he could indirectly show that his purpose was genuine.
‘Alright, I‘ll do that!‘novelbin
“If that‘s the case, I‘ll prove it to you.”
After David said that, he pointed at the huge mountain peak hundreds of kilometers away and continued, “See that mountain?”
“Of course! That‘s Snow Peak. It is the tallest and biggest mountain on the grassland and the tallest and biggest peak on Planet Cloud.”
“Look closely then! My explanation is on that mountain,” David said.
The fighter jet pilot did not understand what David was saying, but he asked the other fighter jets equipped with high–definition cameras to adjust their cameras so they would capture footage of Snow Peak.
While the cameras were pointed at it, the leaders in the control room could also see it.
Meanwhile, the other fighter jets aimed their guided missiles at David and the Galaxy Warship.
Not only the fighter jets, but the countless powerful large –scale, long–distance cannons were also targeting him.
If they detected any hostility from David, they would fire without hesitation and raze this place to the ground.
As everyone stared at Snow Peak, David said one word.
“Up!”
After he said that…
Boom!
A loud voice could be heard from a distance.
Then, the ground shook.
Snow Peak was lifted off the ground and rose in the air while countless people on Planet Cloud watched.
This…
“This…
“This is impossible!
Everyone was shocked to see this scene, and they were all mumbling, “Impossible! Impossible!”
The scene was too shocking.
‘What magnificent technique is this?
‘How can he lift Snow Peak?
“That‘s Snow Peak, the tallest and biggest mountain on
‘It was so easily lifted by such a mysterious power. How shocking! An ordinary person could not do this.‘ After Snow Peak rose to the air, it stopped there quietly.
Chapter 1206
At this moment, Snow Peak was hovering in the air like it was magic.
Mia was already used to this.
Ever since she watched David killing all of the Grim family‘s core, she would not be surprised at anything David did.
With his strength, he could destroy this planet with a stomp of his feet if he wanted.
The room was quiet when the leaders in Planet Cloud saw Snow Peak being lifted easily inside the control room. Everyone‘s eyes were wide, and their jaws dropped. Only heavy breathing could be heard.
They could not believe what they were seeing.
“S–Sir! What should we do?” Someone asked.
From his voice, one could tell that he was in extreme panic.
The strength that David exhibited was too great.
They had never seen this before, and never expected someone to lift a mountain and make it hover in the air.
How much strength would be required? Not only him, the other people in the control room also had looks of horror on their faces.
They turned to look at an old man at the same time.
That old man was the most authoritative decision maker on Planet Cloud.
“Send two people to tell the fighter jets to come back. Also, tell all the weapons to cease fire. We can‘t predict these aliens‘ strength. The rest of you, come with me to meet those level 3 civilization aliens. Let‘s see what they want,” the old man said.
He understood the other party was trying to intimidate them.
If not, the entire Planet Cloud would not have been able to resist him.
The techniques from a high–level civilization were so scary.
Snow Peak was so huge, and it casually lifted and until it hovered in the air.
This was unfathomable!
When would Planet Cloud develop to become a level 3 civilization?
On the grassland in Planet Cloud. After David shocked everyone with one move, he spread his hands and said slowly, “See? I really don‘t mean you any harm. If I did, your planet wouldn‘t even have the power to fight back. I genuinely come here in peace.”
The pilots of the fighter jets got the order from the control room. The control room was asking them to retreat. At the same time, they had to calm these powerful yet strange aliens.
“Sir, our commander will be here to talk to you soon. Please wait patiently for a while.”
“That‘s right. This wouldn‘t have happened if you did this earlier. You just had to make me show my strength,” David smiled and said.
“Please calm down, Sir. You are Planet Cloud‘s first visitor from outer space. I had to treat you with care for the sake of the tens of billions of people on this planet. I hope you understand.”
“It‘s fine! It‘s fine! I understand. It‘ll be fine as long as your commander gets here. Don‘t worry. If I were hostile, I would have suppressed your planet by force.”
“Thank you, Sir!”
After the fighter jets got the order, they left the grassland slowly.
David was not bothered and just let them leave.
At the same time, he placed Snow Peak down to its original position. It did not look any different from before.
Soon, the Galaxy Warship, David, and Mia were the only ones left on the grassland.
Meanwhile, the highest commander of Planet Cloud was heading over here.
After a day, David‘s Galaxy Warship left Planet Cloud to head to another destination.
They had settled their first target.
After his careful explanation, Planet Cloud agreed to join the Milky Way Empire.
To avoid problems, David contacted Princess Astrid directly.
With her help, Planet Cloud and Planet Buck successfully joined the Milky Way Empire. They were registered as high–class citizen planets of the empire.
At the same time, they were also successfully registered on the empire‘s galaxy map. novelbin
None of the forces would dare to covet them anymore.
The deterrent effect of the Milky Way Empire was unquestionable.
Chapter 1207
David headed to his next destination.
There were two more months until the state banquet.
Hence, he needed to go and confirm the status of the two planets.
The old man in another timeline gave David hundreds of planet locations.
They were all planted with slave marks.
However, he did not tell David the timeline, so David needed to find out each of the planets’ statuses individually.
He would tell the empire about the ones that had not been discovered.
After that, he would spend money to turn them into high-class citizen planets so that they would not be planted with slave marks.
Even if those planets were discovered by other forces and were planted with slave marks, David would kill the one who planted the marks and give the planet back its freedom.
Just like Planet Buck.He would get rid of the slave marks when he was strong enough to find a way to get rid of them.
Those hundreds of planets were in all corners of the Milky Way.It would take a lot of time for him to go to all of them.
However, David had made a promise.So, he would do it no matter how long it would take.
Furthermore, he would not get the system without those people’s sacrifice and hard work.
Earth’s fate would also develop in the direction of the Earth in that timeline.
Pavan would plant his slave mark on Earth, and then he would rise to the top of the Milky Way.
Meanwhile, David would continue to look for a way to get rid of the slave mark.He even ended up failing.
One had to be grateful, and David was someone who could distinguish gratitude and grievances.He could only stand on the top of the Milky Way after those people sacrificed themselves.
No matter how high the price was, he had to help the planets those people were from.
With David’s current strength, it would only take a bit of time.
Also, he would get benefits from helping those planets.
After turning every planet into high-class citizen planets of the empire, David would get hundreds of lavish points.
If he went to all of the hundreds of them, he would get many lavish points.
A month later, David finally went to two more planets.
Those two planets were like Planet Cloud in that other forces had not yet discovered them.It seemed they would only be discovered in the future.
After David showed his strength, he would directly intimidate the people on the planet.иσνєℓєвσσк. ¢σмThen, he would turn the planet into a high- class citizen planet of the empire.
Afterward, he would leave while those people could not voice their objections.
David felt that even if those people on the planets could not understand now, they would be grateful to him in the future.
Since the next destination was a little far, it would take him nearly a month to arrive, The state banquet was more than a month away, so if he headed to the next destination, he would not make it in time.
Hence, David decided to go back to the Royal Region first.He would return to Earth after the state banquet and continue his journey.
After David’s command, the Galaxy Warship started to head to the center of the Milky Way and the Royal Region.
At this moment, a tiny flying vessel was speeding through the void in the Zone of Nothingness between the Milky Way and Beast Galaxy.It was moving at lightning speed.
Suddenly, a black crack appeared before it and swallowed the flying vessel.
Soon, on the other infinite side, another small crack appeared.
Three battered end exhausted snake-like creatures with nine heads escaped from the crack.
After they escaped, they immediately returned to their human forms.
Chapter 1208
“I told you not to take shortcuts.You were just supposed to obediently go on the original route, but you didn’t listen to me.Great, our flying vessel has been swallowed by the crack in the Zone of Nothingness.” novelbin
“It’d be too slow to use the original route.We are finally leaving Beast Galaxy to have fun in the Milky Way.Don’t you want to reach earlier so you can enjoy the yummy taste of humans sooner?”
“Of course! However, won’t it be dangerous to take shortcuts? Luckily, the crack this time is not that powerful.We’d all die here if we ran into a more powerful one!”
“It’s not that easy to kill all of us.Plus, it’s not that easy to run into the most powerful crack.We’re just unlucky to have run into one today.”
“You said you wanted to take the shortcut.So what should we do now? Where are we? How far is this place from the Milky Way? Where should we go?”
“How the hell would I know?”
“You…”
“Alright, stop arguing! Let me check with the secret technique,” another person said.
Then, the two stopped talking.
The three beasts that changed into human form were the people the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan sent to assist Sangruil.
Since they were scared that they would attract attention, so they only sent three people over.However, this was enough.
These three were all at partial Eternal Realm.
In addition to Moe and Severus, who were already in the Milky Way, there would be five of them who were at partial Eternal Realm.
Even if there were two people at partial Eternal Realm, Nimbus and Wilfred, in the Milky Way Galaxy, they would not be the five’s opponents.
They would suffer a crushing defeat during a five versus two battle.
The Milky Way Empire would not win unless Nimbus or Wilfred broke through to Eternal Realm.
However, this was not realistic.
If someone in the Milky Way reached Eternal Realm, the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan would not dare to be so arrogant.
Even though there was only a half-level difference between partial Eternal Realm and Eternal Realm, it was miles apart.
As the saying went, ‘a miss is as good as a mile’.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмIt would be a whole new world if one could get through this half- level difference.
They could only be stuck here forever until they die if they could not.
Eternal Realm was called Eternal Realm because it had an eternal life span.
As long as there were no accidents, one could age to be as old as heaven and earth and shine as bright as the sun and moon.
One could imagine how big the difference was.
There were a lot of people at partial Eternal Realm in Beast Galaxy.
However, there were not a lot of them at Eternal Realm.
Most of the powerhouses were stuck at this stage and could not break through.
In the end, they exhausted their life span and died with regrets.
The Nine-Headed Serpent Clan sent these three people to help out in the Milky Way.
In order to reach faster and eat humans, they did not follow their original route.
Instead, they took a shortcut.
Naturally, there would be dangers in taking shortcuts.
In the end, their flying vessel was swallowed by a crack in the Void of Nothingness.
They could only escape from the crack they made after changing back to their original forms.
Even though they were all at partial Eternal Realm, they could not stop too long in the Zone of Nothingness.
If not, their bodies would not be able to take it.
Only after they reached Eternal Realm could they travel, walk, and hurry on freely in the space cracks.
This was also one of the signs of reaching Eternal Realm.
Distance would be nothing to them once they reached Eternal Realm.
They could tear a crack in space and walk in it.
They could also get across different galaxies quickly, let alone within the same galaxy.
Their speed would be beyond the restriction of space.
Chapter 1209
After putting the secret technique to use, the three noticed they had reached the edge of the Milky Way.They were thrilled.
“Haha! It was so effortless.I thought we’d only reach after some time.I didn’t expect us to arrive so soon.This is great! We can eat delicious humans soon! I can’t wait!”
“Using the space crack is indeed the fastest to travel.No wonder the people at Eternal Realm can ignore the distance and reach their destination after tearing the space.It’s a pity we can’t stay in there too long and can’t determine the direction.Once we go in, we can only feel around blindly.”
“It’s nothing! Once we reach Eternal Realm, we can also tear space and walk around freely.”
“Eternal Realm?! It’s not that easy! We might never get there in this lifetime.”
“Alright, stop sighing.Let’s go! I can’t wait anymore, and I can already smell the humans.Humans are born to be our food.After we help that punk Moe overthrow the Milky Way Galaxy, all of us can have unlimited yummy humans.”
“You’re right.It’s not the time to sigh about that.Food is more important.Let’s go!”
The three sped forward, following the direction provided by the secret technique.
The full speed of someone at partial Eternal Realm was faster than any typical flying vessel.
They were like three flashes of light traveling in the void.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
Soon, the three entered the vicinity of the Milky Way.
While they were here, there were no space cracks that were normally prevalent in the Zone of Nothingness.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмThere were also no terrifying and strong Void Wings.The trio continued to head to Light Star.
At the highest level of the tower, Severus got the news that the people sent by the clan were arriving soon.
Hence, he summoned Moe over.
“Severus, I wonder why you summoned me.Did you get any news from your clan?” Moe asked.
“That’s right, Moe.The help from my clan is arriving soon.This time, in order to make sure the plan goes smoothly, the clan sent us three people at partial Eternal Realm.In addition to us, there will be five people at partial Eternal Realm.No matter what the Milky Way Empire does, they will surely lose,” Severus replied with a grin.
“Really?”
Moe got up and asked excitedly.
“Of course! I just got the news.They will be at Light Star soon.”
“That’s amazing! That’s so amazing! Haha! Nimbus, just you wait! I will turn your state banquet this time into a state funeral!”
Moe cackled loudly.
At this moment, Severus interrupted Moe and said seriously, “However, we have to try our best to keep this event small scale, as you said.Even if the chance of us alerting the Universe Enforcer is very low, we can’t afford to gamble on it.If we alert those guys, we’re all doomed.Even the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan will be affected.”
“Don’t worry, Severus! I will have all our Sangruilians infiltrate other forces at no price in about a month.When that happens, we can forcefully suppress the entire Barlowe family, not giving them a chance.I promise they won’t be able to do anything grand.”
“Alright, I hope we have a pleasant cooperation.”
After that, Severus reached out his right hand.
Moe reached out his hand as well to shake the other’s hand.He said, “I hope we have a pleasant cooperation!”
In the next few days, the Sangruil Sinners started to move around the Royal Region like crazy after getting Moe’s orders.
They frequently appeared, so they could not avoid colliding with the Milky Way Empire’s military and the four great halls of the empire.
However, the Milky Way had developed for many years while Sangruil was struggling at death’s door.
Once they collided, aside from the first time the empire’s military suffered a defeat because they did not understand the Sangruil Sinner’s attack, the empire’s military slowly gained the absolute upper hand in the following conflicts and continuously suppressed the Sangruil Sinners.
However, this was just a smoke bomb the Sangruil Sinners put out to attract the empire’s attention.
Their mighty people were secretly contacting various forces in the Royal Region to try to infiltrate them.
The three from the Nine- Headed Serpent Clan at partial Eternal Realm arrived at Light Star a few days later.
Moe’s overweening attitude increased once the five at partial Eternal Realm met.
Since things had escalated to this stage, Moe felt that Sangruil was definitely going to win.It would just depend on how easily they would win and how big of a price they would need to pay. novelbin
Planet Royal in the Royal Region.
An inconspicuous spaceship quickly left a planet that was controlled by a medium force.As it just arrived outside the planet.
Zap! A cold light appeared and sliced the ship in half in the blink of an eye.
Chapter 1210
Boom! There was a loud explosion soon.
After the dust and ashes settled, a few black-robed men stood where the spaceship had exploded.
“Sangruil Sinners, you are colluding with foreign races to create chaos in the empire, so you must die!”
Atlas from the White Tiger Hall roared and rushed forward with his sword.
The black-robed man would not show weakness either.
They turned into beasts to increase their strength before fighting their opponents.
However, Atlas was a peak Celestial Ranker, so those Sangruil Sinners could not resist him.
Even if they turned back into beasts, they could not defeat Atlas.
Soon, Atlas killed all of them and brought their corpses back to Planet Royal for research.
This happened on Planet Royal daily.
The Sangruil Sinner corpses were piled as high as a mountain in the four great halls and military bases.
However, these were all ordinary Sangruil Sinners.
They had alow fusion success rate with the Nine- Headed Serpent genes, so they were not worth researching.
Only the Sangruil Sinner higher-ups at Celestial Rank were worth researching.
Despite this, it was hard to come across higher-ups like these.
Even if they did, the Sangruil Sinners would escape easily if they did not have the power to subdue them.
At this point, the Sangruil Sinners would not go head-on with the empire.
Their reason was simple.
If they could contact the forces in the Royal Region more frequently, they could mess up the order of the Royal Region.
Regardless of if they succeeded, they would confuse the empire just by contacting the forces.
The empire would then suspect those forces.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмHowever, the empire would not destroy those forces immediately.
Instead, they would split up their power to keep an eye on them.
Even if those forces were being complained about this, the Sangruil Sinners would not kill them to shut them up.
Instead, they would change their target at once.
Time passed slowly.
As the Sangruil Sinners messed up the order unconditionally, the Royal Region became more and more chaotic.
Almost every force felt as if they were in danger.
They were terrified that the Sangruil Sinners would go to them.
Even if they did not turn against the empire when that happened, it would still be hard for them to explain themselves.
Because of this, after Sangruil contacted the forces, the empire would continuously monitor those forces.
That way, it would indirectly help Sangruil to achieve its goal.
Not only would the empire’s power get split up, but they could also only make the Royal Region more chaotic. novelbin
Of course, Sangruil paid a massive price for this.
A lot of the higher-ups were killed, while countless ordinary Sangruil Sinners died and got severely injured.
The empire even encircled and annihilated a few of the Infinity Ranked cores.
The Sangruil Sinners suffered heavy losses, but Moe did not care.
Sangruil could afford to bear this loss to achieve the final victory.
