In the vast universe, the Spiral Galaxy was about three million light-years from the Milky Way.
Of course, the Spiral Galaxy was just what the Galaxy Aristocrats called it. On Earth, this galaxy was named the Triangulum Galaxy, also known as the Pinwheel Galaxy, which was a spiral galaxy located in the north of the Triangulum Galaxy.
At this moment, a planet with a diameter of about 20,000 square kilometers in this galaxy, Dimu Star Sector High Nobles, Malone, was sitting comfortably on the sofa with a drink. There were four beautiful ladies massaging his thigh.
Speaking of which, Sir Malone was not exceptionally strong. He hated physical work. Of course, that was with the exception of some delightful bed exercises. His concept was, only those in the lower-class need to work hard.
Born a High Noble, Sir Malone’s status was noble enough. He did not need to do anything himself and life was easy for him.
Doing some light work happily, collecting some great benefits, sleeping with a few beautiful women, that was the kind of life Malone liked.
And this time, the main reason why he came was to receive Triangulum Galaxy, also known as Spiral Galaxy’s Star Gem Mine planet.
The best material for forging the exteriors of Stellar-level Space Carriers was found in Star Gem Mines. Why were the High Nobles so powerful in the Dimu Star Sector? They controlled over 80% of the entire sector’s Star Gem Mines! In other words, the Dimu Star Sector High Nobles controlled over 80% of Stellar-level Space Carriers!
Therefore, each discovery of a Star Gem Mine represented a highly profitable opportunity!
During the days when Sir Malone was here, he had rather substantial gains.
Just the expensive Star Gem ores alone, Malone had secretly hidden a lot for himself. On the black market, these ores could be sold for at least five to six billion. In addition to his status as a High Noble, he could be considered a grand official in the Dimu Star Sector. He might not be comparable to those Aristocrats geniuses, but it was no problem for him to settle small issues.
In this Spiral Galaxy, the Stellar Aristocrats had given him a red packet of 200 million Dimu Dollars to ask him to put in a few good words for them in front of the other High Nobles and to take care of them when there was any good news.
In just a few days, Malone received seven to eight million Dimu Dollars. This money was sufficient for Malone to squander for several months in the headquarters of the High Nobles. Hence, his mood was rather good.
“Sir Malone.” As he was leisurely drinking his beverage, a Spiral Galaxy Aristocrat approached him carefully. He was full of excitement and reported to Malone. “According to the latest news, Young Master Zong Yelei, who is in Faerie Star now, has met that genius from the Milky Way who passed Level 30 in the Tower of Trials. The genius named Hong Dali is said to look eighteen- or nineteen-years-old. He passed the entire Tower of Trials on his first attempt without dying even once.”
“Oh?” That was news. Malone immediately rose and asked anxiously, “Really?”
“Absolutely!” The Spiral Galaxy Aristocrat nodded decisively. “No matter how gutsy Zong Yelei is, he will not joke about something like that. The important thing is that many others who were present witnessed it.”
“Hahaha, okay. Good!” Malone smacked hard on the Stellar Aristocrat’s shoulder. “All of you are really my blessed generals. Rest assured, when we return to the headquarters, I will put in a few good words for you. You might even be given 2% more shares from the Star Gem Mine if the higher-ups are happy!”
“Thank you, Sir Malone!” Hearing that, the Stellar Aristocrat was overjoyed!
Star Gem ores were material for building the armor of Stellar-level Space Carriers. It was naturally expensive. Such a mime could produce tens of billions Dimu Dollars worth of Star Gem ores. 2% was equivalent to a few billion Dimu Dollars. It was not a small sum.
“Alright, since the genius has been found, I will head over right away.” Malone paced excitedly. “Aiya, when this matter is completed, my status at the headquarters is sure to rise with the tide. Haha.”
Locating the genius was his own achievement. His capability would get recognized in addition to having someone like that beside him. His status was sure to advance.
“Enough talking.” Malone clapped his hands together. “Arrange for a spacecraft for me to set off to Faerie Star. As soon as possible.”
As he said that, he took out a pistol and shot the four women who served him. Then, he smiled. “Okay, dead people won’t make me a cuckold. Hahaha, let’s go!”
…
On Faerie Star, in Green Phoenix’s cave.
Hong Dali walked in step by step. The cave was very big and high. The surrounding walls exuded a soft greenish-white light. The ground was very flat and clean, with no traces of debris or dust.
The air was extremely fresh and one could smell a tinge of fragrance in it. This could be related to the Green Phoenix’s gender. After all, females loved nice-smelling fragrances.
They walked for more than ten minutes before Hong Dali finally saw Sister Green Phoenix.
“Sister Green Phoenix, is that you? I’m here!” Hong Dali quickly approached once he saw the respected Green Phoenix. He beamed as he greeted her. “Long time no see. How is my little Acka?”
“Haha, it’s been a long time, indeed.” The Green Phoenix looked Hong Dali up and down, then nodded slightly. She said gently, “I can see you’ve grown a lot in these few months. I can tell that you are much stronger than you were in the Tower of Trials.” At this point, she waved inside and said gently, “My child, come out. See who’s here?”
“Chiu Chiu!” Following Green Phoenix’s words, a graphite-colored little bird flew out. Once he saw Hong Dali, it chirped excitedly and flew a few rounds around him. Then, it stopped on Hong Dali’s head, picked on his hair, and finally sat down…
“Haha, Acka,” Hong Dali took out a Health gem from his space watch and gave it to Acka. “Acka, are you hungry? You like this, right?”
“Chiu Chiu!” When Acka saw the Health gem, his shiny black eyes lit up. He bit onto the gem, raised his neck, and swallowed it.
“Burp—” It even burped, satisfied!
“This child.” Green Phoenix smiled and shook her head. “You fed Acka such a precious Health gem so casually. Aye, to be honest, I’ve seen so many people over the years. But I’ve never seen someone as generous as you.”
How long had the Green Phoenix lived? Thousands of years! She gave directions to powerful humans every day. How many people had she met? It was definitely impossible to keep track. But it was the first time she had met someone like Hong Dali, who fed Health gems to her child!
What were Health gems? They were King Zergs’ inducements! In large quantities, it could even induce the Golden Emperor Beetle!
It was not something that one could easily get with money.
“I’m a prodigal, after all.” Hong Dali chuckled and did not mind much. He even took out another gem. “Sister Green Phoenix, here’s one for you. This thing is really quite good. Hehe.”
“Alright. If I refuse it, it’ll seem like I’m being arrogant.” The Green Phoenix beamed as she took the Health gem and kept it among her feathers. She nodded, pleased. “En, it’s not bad, indeed. I can feel my body gradually becoming younger.”
She wasn’t just talking nonsense.
She had lived for thousands of years. Although she was known as an immortal phoenix, she had a life span, after all. With this Health gem, she could live for another eight hundred to one thousand years without any problems.
“As long as it’s useful.” Hong Dali looked at the Green Phoenix and asked, “Oh right, Sister Green Phoenix, is there anything for me to do here? I heard you give great directions to those warriors!”
“The others are the others. You are you.” The Green Phoenix looked at Hong Dali, amused. “If I tell you where to train, would you agree to it?” She was Sister Green Phoenix, indeed. She could see through Hong Dali at once…
“Hehe, hehe. Seems not very suitable.” Hong Dali ruffled his hair, embarrassed. “What should I do next, then? En, apart from meditating—that is not suitable for me. But Sister Green Phoenix, are there any fun places here in Faerie Star? Can you introduce some places? I’ll take this as a vacation, would that be okay?”
En, such a nice planet. Who would bear to leave without spending one or two months here?
“Hmm, let me see.” The Green Phoenix closed her eyes briefly. When she opened them again, a soft greenish-blue beam emitted from her eyes, covering Hong Dali’s entire body.
The blue beam could show a person’s past and even part of the future.
Some people saw a longer time-line, others saw a shorter time-line.
But who would have thought all the Green Phoenix saw from Hong Dali was chaos. A view of white chaos. Nothing could be seen at all. She could not even see Acka’s future, who was also covered with the blue light.
“It’s a pity.” The Green Phoenix shook her head gently. Her gaze on Hong Dali was soft. “I cannot see your future. The only thing I can see is that you will not follow the wrong direction. Perhaps you will encounter some setbacks, perhaps it will be smooth-sailing for you. No matter what, maintain kindness in your heart. The chaos I see is white. White chaos represents kindness and lawfulness.”
Finally, the Green Phoenix concluded. “No matter what, there’s one thing I’m certain of. My child is safe in your hands.”
