Chapter 1343: A Super Special Present!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
G.o.d’s Eden had stopped. Xia Fei went to the edge of the garden and looked down. What he saw was a black hole, with no way of telling where it went.
Chu Jingfeng did a small test and found that this black hole had a Seal applied to it.
Xia Fei said, “This sort of arrangement reminds me of the time when I first saw the Cosmic Gate. From its size, this black hole should be able to fit G.o.d’s Eden. The Four Sky Devils might have used it as a reference to build the garden.”
Chu Jingfeng nodded. “G.o.d’s Eden speed is really quite fast. In just twenty-four hours, it managed to reach such a distant place. Unfortunately, we don’t know if this black hole is actually a Cosmic Gate. If it is, where does it go?”
Xia Fei replied, “Could it be the ninth universe? So far, we know that the seventh universe is the base of the dragons and the eight universe is where Yggdragon King Yangguang lives. As for the ninth universe, we don’t have the slightest clue about where it is or what’s going on there.”
!!
Chu Jingfeng said, “Someone did an a.n.a.lysis based on the area of the universe when it was still in one piece, and they estimated that the ninth universe would be very small, at most the size of a standard star region. Meanwhile, the other eight universes are made from tens of thousands of star regions. Thus, the ninth universe has an almost negligible existence.”
After some thought, Xia Fei said, “The more things are like that, the more problematic they are. For a single star region to be split off on its own, either the ninth universe is extremely important or those bigshots in the Heroes Alliance are crazy!”
Chu Jingfeng said, “We’ve now found the endpoint set by the Four Sky Devils, and we can’t go into the black hole. What’s our next step?”
Xia Fei thought it over for a bit and said, “Our next step is naturally to find a safe place to hide G.o.d’s Eden so that the h.e.l.l Brigade doesn’t come again.”
“What place would be the safest?” Xu Luanbu asked.
“The eighth universe!” Xia Fei declared. “Nothing will go wrong with Old Yangguang protecting G.o.d’s Eden!”
…
G.o.d’s Eden set off again. When it arrived in the eighth universe, all of the Yggdragons had to come out, and it was only with great effort that they managed to get the ma.s.sive garden inside.
Xia Fei called back Peac.o.c.k Blue, which was how he had been controlling G.o.d’s Eden. Peac.o.c.k Blue had planted itself in the ground and linked up with the complicated network under the garden, transmitting Xia Fei’s orders.
G.o.d’s Eden was a mystical place, and appeared to have a mind of its own. When Xia Fei thought of a set of coordinates, the garden immediately headed towards that location.
While this method of controlling the garden wasn’t as convenient as installing a computer, there was an incredible level of privacy. Save for Xia Fei, n.o.body could move the garden a single centimeter!
“Heavens! You really succeeded!” Yangguang laughed heartily. He looked at the thriving garden in disbelief. Standing to the side, his wife Smile was also very excited.
Xia Fei and Chu Jingfeng explained to Yangguang what had happened over the last two days, and Yangguang’s eyes widened in surprise as he said, “Be at ease! Leave G.o.d’s Eden with me. Those guys would have to come themselves. The insects from the h.e.l.l Brigade will be doomed if they came by themselves!”
Xia Fei trusted in Yangguang’s strength. He was the King of the Yggdragons, the ruler of the eighth universe!
In addition to the three members of Yangguang’s family, there was also the rest of his race and countless exotic beasts. All of them listened to Yangguang’s orders, so when it came to numbers of warriors, he was completely on par with the Megadragon’s servant army.
After settling G.o.d’s Eden, Xia Fei finally sighed in relief. G.o.d’s Eden was currently Xia Fei’s greatest resource, and he didn’t want to see the garden that he had gone to such great lengths to reestablish to suffer any damage.
Yangguang wanted to have Xia Fei stay for a while, but Xia Fei looked at the time and saw that it was about time to see Old Ye, so he refused Yangguang’s kind offer and returned to the Annihilation Universe alone.
As for Chu Jingfeng and Xu Luanbu, as the new gardeners of G.o.d’s Eden, they had many things to do, so they decided to take up residence in the eighth universe.
…
Upon seeing Old Ye, Xia Fei bowed to him and said, “First off, it seems that I must congratulate you.”
“For what?” Old Ye asked in confusion.
Xia Fei explained, “The cactus you found was of outstanding quality, and I’ve also thought of a completely new method. Thus, today, I plan to completely root out your illness.”
“Today!?” Old Ye was excited. Xia Fei was quite capable, and Old Ye was confident in Xia Fei’s medical skills. But for Xia Fei to declare that he planned to completely cure Old Ye after just a few rounds of treatment? The old man couldn’t help but celebrate.
Xia Fei had no choice but to do this. Going back and forth between G.o.d’s Eden and Old Ye was just too much trouble. It was better to just get him all treated in one go!
Moreover, Old Ye had promised Xia Fei a big present if Xia Fei cured him. Xia Fei had poured one million units of spirit energy into G.o.d’s Eden, and his reserves were drying up! He was in need of money, and in need of spirit energy… a lot of spirit energy!
Xia Fei had been able to tell long ago that G.o.d’s Eden was an energy-devouring monster! It wouldn’t be long before those one million units were used up, so Xia Fei needed to be prepared in advance.
…
Xia Fei’s spirit energy was the best medicine. Xia Fei combed Old Ye’s body with spirit energy again and again, rooting out Old Ye’s illness as one would slowly wind silk threads off a coc.o.o.n.
Old Ye’s illness wasn’t serious, but he felt like he hadn’t been able to use all of his cultivation lately, so he had made this matter his highest priority. As a senior warrior, he felt like being unable to fight at full strength was worse than death, and the matter troubled him deeply.
Xia Fei had already used his healing spirit energy three times on Old Ye to correct Old Ye’s body, and the rest would now come naturally. But Xia Fei still had to make the matter seem more complicated than it seemed, or else how could he show off his abilities?!
Xia Fei wanted to give the old man the impression that Xia Fei had paid an enormous price to cure him, as that would give Old Ye a good opinion of Xia Fei.
He performed a string of complicated procedures, and then he used three bottles of soothing medicine. After an entire day and night, Xia Fei finally ended the treatment.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Xia Fei put on an exhausted appearance. Panting for breath, he said, “It seems like all the hard work paid off! Old Ye, give it a try.”
Old Ye stood up dubiously. He had truly been moved by Xia Fei’s nonstop twenty-four-hour treatment. He was thinking to himself that even if Xia Fei had failed, he wouldn’t blame him. After all, Xia Fei was still young, and he had also put a lot of time and energy into this treatment.
With a powerful rumble, Old Ye released his energy, allowing Xia Fei to finally see this old man’s real power! Surprisingly, he didn’t use spirit energy, but the soul power that was one tier lower!
Though it was soul power, his cultivation was astonis.h.i.+ng. Just circulating it through his body collapsed the wooden room!
A sound like a bullet could be heard, and then the shack exploded into countless wooden shards! The immense force almost sent Xia Fei flying!
“This is…an even higher realm!” Xia Fei realized in shock. He knew that the old man had a high cultivation, but not this high!
This higher-realm soul power possessed overwhelming strength! Old Ye was strong, stronger even than Chu Jingfeng!
“Success! My cultivation has completely recovered!” Old Ye shouted excitedly.
Xia Fei could sense that countless experts had rushed in from all sides to protect Old Ye, indicating that he must have had an extremely high status. But those people withdrew when they saw that Old Ye was fine.
Perhaps because Old Ye found this place inconvenient for using his full strength, he disappeared, running off to someplace else.
Xia Fei lit a cigarette and smiled faintly. He was now completely sure as to who Old Ye really was.
…
After a while, Old Ye returned. Suppressing his excitement, he said to Xia Fei, “I can’t believe it. I really didn’t think a little boy like you would be able to cure this illness that has dogged me for so many years.”
Xia Fei said humbly, “This is mostly because Sir possesses a good foundation. That display of power just now scared me so bad I almost wet my pants. Although I have never seen you, I am sure that you are one of the strongest existences in the universe!”
“Hahaha!” Old Ye enjoyed Xia Fei’s flattery and laughed heartily. Xia Fei’s flattery was very special, for his natural expression and tone made it easily believable.
“I was truly rather impolite just now, and I shouldn’t have tried to deceive you. But you don’t understand how important it is for me to recover my health. If not for that illness, things might not have…”
He stopped midway, seemingly overcome with sorrow.
“Forget it. It’s pointless to say these things to you. In any case, you were of huge help to me! You need to be rewarded, richly rewarded!” Old Ye declared excitedly.
Xia Fei was waiting for these words. No matter how high Old Ye’s cultivation was, he wasn’t guaranteed to stand at Xia Fei’s side. It would be better to get something a little more solid.
Xia Fei smiled and said, “Sir, I’ll be honest. Upon arriving here in the Annihilation Universe, I found that everywhere I go requires money, almost making me go broke. There are so many new and interesting things, and my heart is itching to buy them. If you say such words, I really might take them seriously.”
Sometimes, one had to act this way. Frankly accepting something was sometimes more understandable than insincerely making excuses. Old Ye was very relieved to hear those words from Xia Fei.
Old Ye patted Xia Fei on the shoulder. “This old man does whatever he promises! Starting from today, you can buy whatever you want! Money? That’s nothing! I’ll give you something way more useful than money.”
Hearing this, Xia Fei gratefully thanked Old Ye, and Old Ye laughed heartily. Knowing how to give compliments wasn’t a skill. The real skill was to make compliments that everyone was happy to hear, and Xia Fei was a master at that….
…
Stepping back on a wars.h.i.+p, Xia Fei took off his blindfold. He saw that Blueblood Zadin Patriarch Roderick was smiling at him. Xia Fei felt like the man seemed a little different, perhaps looking at him with a little more respect.
The wars.h.i.+p stopped, and Xia Fei disembarked. Roderick led Xia Fei to a place that seemed quite familiar.
“I feel like I’ve been here before,” Xia Fei said in confusion.
Roderick replied, “You’re definitely mistaken. Last time, you went to the Fiend Race’s Warehouse Three. This one is Warehouse Two.”
“What!?” Xia Fei was stunned, not believing what he was hearing!
“Yes! Old Ye’s present to you is that starting from today, the three great Warehouses of the Fiend Race are all yours!” Roderick declared triumphantly.
