“Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger? It’s only Big City-level.” Tang Long pouted. “Did Deca tell you the Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger was a Planet-level beast? That guy was bluffing you. But it’s not exactly his fault. Just by looking at his spaceship, I could tell he is unable to gain such information. The time he met the Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger was probably his first time seeing a beast above Mid City-level. He only knows that it is very powerful. But as to how powerful it is, he wouldn’t have known at his level.”
When Hong Dali heard that, he understood.
It was the first meeting, who didn’t know how to bluff? Hence, Deca bluffed that the Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger was a Planet-level beast. In fact, a real Planet-level beast’s body would be at least a few hundred meters long. It was definitely not something that Deca could see at his level.
“How about this frost magician Herazl, what level would he be at?” Hong Dali asked, “It is said it has killed hundreds of thousands of people, could he be Planet-level?”
“What joke is that?” Tang Long pouted. “Fang Han is not stupid. If Herazl was a Planet-level boss, he would not just bring three thousand people along. I estimate him to be a Big City-level boss, about one level apart from the Golden-armored Green-eyed Tiger. Anyway, this group of people is a little mysterious.”
As they talked, they had reached the gate of a giant palace in the middle of the frost forest. Hong Dali was suddenly overjoyed!
At this moment, many people had gathered at the gate, shouting—
“Standard Iron Warrior seeking employment. Only ten Galaxy Dollars and I will accompany you for the expedition. If you need me, just take me along!”
“Professional Cleric seeking employment. Eight Galaxy Dollars, absolutely professional!”
“Professional Sniper seeking for a group. Only nine Galaxy Dollars. Seeking for love and support. Can cook and warm the bed!”
Woah, there were people like that everywhere, so intimate…
Tang Muxin laughed. “People like these can really be seen everywhere.”
Li Nianwei laughed as well. “It’s really quite intimate.”
Fang Han, who was leading the group, laughed. “These people will take the risk for money. Anyway, there is no loss if they die inside. But our group are all elites in the union. We don’t need them.”
En, seemed like it was a good job. It was not a bad idea to wait here for groups when one ran out of money…
Fang Han’s large army was ready to enter the Frost Palace to battle the frost magician Herazl. Three thousand people marched in with great force. The people who gathered outside saw Hong Dali and his gang following in as well. They suddenly whispered, “Hey, look. What are those four people doing? Take a sightseeing tour?” “They are probably friends of the leader. I know the leader, he is the President of the Thunderbolt Dynasty Union, Fang Han. His identity is a mystery, but he’s quite strong. Not just an average person.” “It is said that Fang Han is not someone to fool around. Why would he bring a few burdens in?” “Who knows? We can’t predict how people of his level think.”
Their discussion was not very loud, but it was not soft either. Tang Muxin could hear them and yelled back angrily, “You are the burdens! Your whole family are burdens!” En, whoever dared talk bad about Hong Dali, the little lass was the first to fight back!
Once they saw Tang Muxin’s reaction, they quickly looked away and continued shouting, “Seeking for a group, only nine Galaxy Dollars. Seeking for love and support. Can cook and warm the bed!”
I can’t be bothered!
Moving in with the army, the further they went in, the more voices they heard. Fang Han suddenly stopped and said, “It seems I have some old friends ahead of us.”
Everything was going the way he wanted, indeed. Hong Dali had predicted that someone would come and stir up the scene. And it really happened…
They turned at a corner and saw a huge group of people. They were split into two camps, about four thousand people in total. Both parties refused to budge in front of the palace’s internal gate.
The bigger party looked to be about two thousand and five hundred people. They stood blocking the gate of the palace. Why did the leader look so familiar…
“Haven’t I seen this person before?” Hong Dali said curiously.
“Yes,” Tang Muxin said angrily. “That’s the rich young master we met at the registration of Shenluo’s airspace!”
“Oh, oh. It’s him.” Hong Dali sighed. “It seems that even in the universe, it’s still not big enough. We even met him here.”
The smaller party had about one thousand and four or five hundred people. They seemed much more disciplined and neat. Just that they were the minority, hence the deadlock. No one dared to make the first move.
As for the leader of this party, he was blocked and could not be seen.
What were these two groups of people doing at the gate of the palace? Fighting for territory? Fighting at such a young age, I hate violence… Hong Dali saw the two groups of people grinding their fists and was elated. “Should I go ignite a fire? If I don’t spark something, it would be against the heavens. I love watching a scene. Hehe…”
The rich young master saw Fang Han and his group and laughed instantly. “Yo, yo, yo. Isn’t this Brother Fang Han, you’re finally here. Hehe.”
They know each other?
Hong Dali touched his chin. Their relationship seems fishy.
“Fang Wei,” Fang Han narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “You’re waiting to extend the time?”
“Of course.” Fang Wei approached him, smiling. “I heard big brother was coming to explore, so I came over too. How is it? Do you need help?”
From his tone, he didn’t sound very friendly. Hong Dali and his gang were in for a good show.
“You’re more of a hindrance than a help. Forget it.” Indeed, there was heat in both parties’ tones. “I’m afraid to receive help from my dear brother.”
“Aiya, we’re from the same family, after all. Why do this? What’s the point?” Fang Wei grinned and replied, then, he looked at Hong Dali. “Speaking of which, you’re Hong Dali, right? I was really intending to look for you. To think we would meet here.”
“You know me?” Hong Dali pointed at his nose. “Why are you looking at me?”
“Your girls are not bad.” Fang Wei pointed at Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei. “Five hundred thousand Galaxy Dollars for them to accompany me for a month. How is it?”
F**k! A prodigal scared by another prodigal. This was intolerable!
“I’m sorry.” Hong Dali dug his nose. “You can’t afford them.”
Fang Wei asked, “There are women I can’t afford? There should be a price. Tell me, how much?”
Fang Han roared. “Fang Wei! Don’t go overboard, they’re my friends. You’re in no position to flaunt your might!”
“They’re priceless.” Hong Dali hummed. “Why is this kid so dense?”
“Yo, yo, yo. A country bumpkin from the countryside. You have quite a temper.” Fang Wei laughed and approached Tang Muxin. “Five million, how is it?”
Tang Muxin stood there, with her bright, clear eyes and a bit of laziness narrowing, staring at him insipidly. But she kept quiet.
“Not talking? I love cold beauties.” Fang Wei grinned cheekily. “How about ten million?”
“Prepare for battle!” Seeing that Fang Wei was getting too much, Fang Han said in a cold and stern voice. “Fang Wei, at the count of three, if you don’t stop, then don’t blame me for being heartless!”
“Hahaha, heartless!” Fang Wei laughed out loud. “Fang Han, my dear big brother, we have been badgering for so many years. There were some wins and some losses. We have done even more heartless things. Who are you trying to scare? They’re just a few country bumpkins, am I right? Hong Dali?” He looked at Hong Dali as he spoke. “I’ve checked, there’s no such person in Teran Planet. You must be a country bumpkin from some corner, right? You registered as a Level Five VIP once you arrived, you’re quite a prodigal.”
In fact, Hong Dali had intended to raise his hand. After all, the other party was getting too much. But when he heard that, he suddenly changed his mind.
“Ah, that, your name is Fang Wei?” Hong Dali’s voice was calm. “If there’s nothing, please stand aside. We still have matters to attend to.”
He actually bore with it?
Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei looked at each other. Tang Muxin whispered, “What’s going on? Dali is actually not doing anything?”
“Young Master must have other reasons.” Li Nianwei was certain.
“Let’s wait and see,” Lucifer remarked, thinking that further observation was required.
Sure enough, when he saw that Hong Dali didn’t say much, had no intention of fighting, and was not even angry, Fang Wei didn’t know what to do. Even if he was thick-skinned enough, he didn’t dare to provoke Hong Dali further. Fang Han saw the chance and sneered. “Family brother, you cannot initiate a fight. My good brother, you’re not thinking of violating this rule, right?”
“Fine!” Fang Wei said with hatred. “Stand aside, everyone. Give way to them! Let them pass! We’ll see how you get killed by the ice mage!”
The group that Fang Wei brought along stood on two sides and let Fang Han and his group pass.
As they walked on, the female leader of the smaller group who was against Fang Wei earlier on looked at Hong Dali curiously and muttered, “Hong Dali? You can maintain your cool even in a situation like that, interesting.”
When they arrived at the palace door, Fang Han smiled as he opened the door. “Brother Dali, thank you. My palms were sweating just now.”
“Hehe, I guessed so.” Hong Dali ruffled his hair, embarrassed. “You belong to one family. From the way he talked, he was clearly provoking you to make the first move. If I really went against him, you wouldn’t stay put. But if you made the first move, the consequences would be dire. So, hehe.”
