Two months later, Lu Ze and the girls were having breakfast in Ying Ying’s room.
At this moment, the scene outside flashed with white light and changed.
A huge red star appeared on the other side. There was a planet that was much larger than ordinary planets revolving around the star.
All sorts of spaceships flew towards the massive planet.
Ships emerged from the warp dimension from time to time.
Lu Ze said, “We’re here. Is this the trade planet Elder Nangong talked about?”
The trade planet was in the center of the eastern region.
There were just one star and one planet. Such a solar system was rather rare.
The trade planet was very close to the star.
The temperature was very high and not suitable for ordinary life. However, after the terraforming done by cosmic cloud state civilization, those above mortal evolution states could stay here for long periods of time.
This planet was the most prosperous planet in the eastern region. You could pretty much find everything you want to buy here.
Technology, divine arts, spirit items, equipment, rare spirit fruits, and even slaves of the annihilated races.
Every five years, the East Realm Gathering was held here. There would be thousands of races and all sorts of beings coming here to trade. For the Four-Race Alliance, this place was too far away and risky to visit. Hence, they would only come during the East Realm Gathering to buy the things their race needed.
Sometimes, they might not even attend the East Realm Gathering. The risk involved was one of the reasons, but the most important factor was the lack of money.
Lin Ling remarked, “This place is really prosperous.”
Even Ying Ying looked at that massive planet in curiosity.
During this time, the broadcast in the ship ordered everyone to assemble.
Lu Ze got up. “Let’s go.”
The group left.
Luo Bingqing and his team were already at the foyer. This was their first time coming to the trade planet.
They greeted Lu Ze and the girls.
Elder Nangong and the star states came over too.
Elder Nangong said, “There are many powerful beings on the trade planet. Don’t walk around everywhere and don’t start trouble. We’ll stay low-key and trade some things. Then, we’ll leave.”
Fighting was forbidden on the planet. The offender would be penalized by the civilization that established this place.
Elder Nangong would usually treat situations like this seriously. There were too many powerful beings here.
Who knew if he’d unintentionally annoy someone?
The rules could be changed by power.
This year, however, Ying Ying had their backs, so he wasn’t overly anxious.
Still, they needed to lie low. The Human Race needed more time to develop.
Everyone agreed.
They recognized their own weakness. Hence, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble here.
Soon, the ships of the Four-Race Alliance docked at the sizable space station.
The four races gathered, and Elder Nangong led everyone to stay at a distant hotel.
They were going to stay there for a few days. Despite being situated at a rather distant location, the hotel still had over a thousand levels and a vast area. There were several races coming in and out.
The prodigies who came here for the first time looked at the other beings curiously.
There were also large groups with star states and cosmic system states leading the team.
Of course, there were individuals or small squads. These people were mostly star states or occasionally cosmic system states.
These wanderers might have had their races
survive.
Some of them dreamed of reviving their civilization while some had given up and just wanted to remain alive.
There were too many races like the Four-Race Alliance that came to trade here.
There were dozens of reception stands at the foyer. Behind them were cold-faced workers.
The four cosmic system states went to book rooms. The workers weren’t surprised upon seeing cosmic system states at all.
Soon, the bookings were done.
Even though the hotel was located far away, they still needed to pay a planetary state spirit herb. This was horrifyingly expensive.
The prodigies who came for the first time were shocked by this price. One room cost one planetary state spirit herb a day.
e room
“Just how lucrative was this place?’
Because there were plenty of attendees, the cosmic system states booked an entire floor.
The participants shared rooms.
In fact, Lu Ze and the girls would stay in a single room.
Lu Ze felt great about this arrangement.
‘Is Elder Nangong helping me out again?’
Meanwhile, Nangong Jing and the girls were embarrassed.
Soon, they reached their room. When they opened the door, the group ended up dumbfounded. The area was only tens of square meters.
Most importantly, there was no furniture-not even a bathroom or a kitchen. It really was just a room!
Well, there were just a few cushions on the ground for sitting… Lu Ze was speechless. “We can’t cook here.”
Nangong Jing frowned. “This sort of room costs one planetary state spirit herb a night. Living in the spaceship is better than staying here.”
Qiuyue Hesha said, “We’re just staying for a few days. Bear with it.”
Thereafter, the cosmic system states allowed the young prodigies to go out and wander around. They went with the star states to buy some necessities and sell some stuff.
In the coming days, they would be quite busy. The prodigies went off in groups. They were very curious.
Lu Ze and the girls decided to go out as well. Ying Ying concealed herself, but she tagged along with them.
There were all sorts of skyscrapers on this planet.
Vibrant lights attracted countless customers.
Powerful beings flew between buildings.
The shops in the outer region were mostly privately-owned shops. They weren’t big, and the quality of the things sold wasn’t very high.
A few hours later, as they explored deeper and deeper, larger shops started appearing. The quality of the items also improved to a higher grade.
Lu Li touched a dark crystal necklace in an ornament shop and smiled. “Is this pretty?”
Lu Ze nodded. “Yes, the color matches you. Makes your neck seem whiter.”
Lu Li smiled. “Alright, then I’m buying it. Pay for me, brother.” “Senior, how about this bracelet?”
Alice reached out her arm. There was a crystal bracelet with purple flames surging inside. The bracelet felt warm.
Lu Ze smiled. “Yes, it seems it can buff fire god art quite a lot. It suits you well, Alice.”
Alice giggled. “Then, I want this senior.” “Okay.” Nangong Jing, Qiuyue Hesha, and Lin Ling were all choosing their jewelry eagerly.
Nangong Jing passed over a golden ring. “Ze, I want this ring. It buffs my body god art a lot.”
Qiuyue Hesha chose a rainbow necklace. “Little brother Lu Ze, I want this.”
As for Lin Ling, she waved around a silvery-white pendant. “This one, Ze.” Lu Ze nodded. “Okay, get all of them.”
He looked at their prices. It was a total of 25 star state spirit herbs. They were the cheapest star-state-buffing items.
At the trade planet, everything was bought with the most ordinary spirit herb of that level.
Planetary state items used planet forging fruit.
Star state items used spirit mist herb.
Before they went out, the old man gave them 35 spirit mist herbs to use.
The others felt envious.
They were rather wealthy now. Lu Ze smiled at a humanoid salesperson. “Take us to the check-out counter.”
The salesperson answered politely, “Sure, please come this way, sir.”
The other customers looked at Lu Ze’s group in surprise.
‘Rich!
Such a young planetary state bought star state equipment without blinking. “What race are those few beings?” “Not sure, they don’t seem simple. I can’t sense their cultivation level.”
“You’re already a level-2 star state and you still can’t?”
“Mhm… they give me a rather dangerous feeling, especially that male.” “They look so young. They must be a group of prodigies.”
“At the very least, they have cosmic system states backing them up. Don’t think about it. There might even be…”
Lu Ze came out of the shop and said, “I have something to announce.”
The girls looked at Lu Ze. Lu Ze relayed, “We seem to be almost out of money.” The girls were in disbelief.
Qiuyue Hesha exclaimed, “That quickly?!”
“I feel we haven’t even shopped a lot!”
“Same.”
Lu Ze rolled his eyes. “Other than buying equipment, we bought quite some rare planetary state spirit herbs. We’ve used up the 32 spirit mist herbs already.”
“That means we only have three left.”
The girls’ expression fell.
Lu Ze then smiled. “Let’s find some things to sell.”
“Sell?”
Nangong Jing frowned. “You’re not thinking about selling the orbs, are you? We can’t do that!”
Lu Ze asked, “Am I that dumb?” Lu Ze thought of something good. They got an insectoid queen egg!
