Chapter 191: Raiga visits
“Do you really not intend to get involved in this matter? Slug, Cooler, and King Cold are well-known powerful experts in the North Area. They have mustered so many people and are poking their noses around in the East Area. I feel that something bad is surely going to happen.”
After Jaco left, Xiling knitted her eyebrows and said to Xiaya.
“Something bad happening is a certainty. However, this time, the enemy is too strong, so it wouldn’t be good to get involved.” Xiaya replied in a serious tone as he watched Jaco’s s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p recede further into the horizon.
At the present stage, Xiaya still doesn’t want Saiyans to get involved in Slug and others disputes so early on, because Saiyans’ current weak physique couldn’t stand the impact of such great storms.
The weak needs to recognize their own position. If they rashly got involved in the fights of powerful experts, the most likely outcome would an end to their lives! Saiyans still had to acc.u.mulate strength—and at least, wait until the emergence of a Super Saiyan, then they could confidently challenge Slug and the Frost Demon race.
After sending Jaco off, Xiaya was free, so he took a tour around every place on Planet Hongshan. As the lush forests and rolling hills rapidly flashed past his eyes, Xiaya’s face donned a look of satisfaction. The natural environment on Planet Hongshan had always been protected, right from the start; thus, the original ecology remained as lush as it was before.
Living on such a planet made people feel extremely delighted!
The peaceful days pa.s.sed by, and Saiyans continued to live intense and fulfilling days as usual. The disputes beneath the undercurrents of East Area hadn’t affected Planet Hongshan at all, or to say that in the Saiyans’ territory, no Force dared to act as they wish.
After Xiaya and Xiling made their relations.h.i.+p clear, their interactions became more and more frequent.
Especially Xiling. After she had gotten the delicious taste of s*x, it was as though she had became addicted. Almost every night, she would shamelessly climb into bed and tangle with Xiaya till late night. With the const.i.tution that the Saiyans possessed, after the initial shyness had worn off, the intensity of the succeeding activities could be well imagined.
It was to the extent that it made Myers, whose room was next door, wasn’t able to fall sleep every night, so next day, she would have bright red eyes and her spirits listless—like a tree without moisture.
Every time she looked at Xiaya and Xiling, her eyes contained a near substantial, dark resentment.
“You are like this every day; how can I still sleep?!” Myers was almost driven mad!
Day by day pa.s.sed like this.
Until one day, another unexpected guest visited Planet Hongshan.
“Mr. Raiga, I really didn’t expect you to come to Planet Hongshan. I don’t know what you are here for?” Xiaya smiled at the yellow-skinned alien in front of him. This time, it was surprisingly Mr. Raiga—the guardian of the trading planet Bakuf—who had come to Planet Hongshan.
“Wait, if you have come to persuade me on behalf of the Galactic Patrol Organization, then it is not necessary.” Xiaya was on good terms with Raiga, so he spoke politely.
However, it concerns the future and fate of Saiyans, so it was necessary to refuse.
Raiga laughed out loud and said: “To be honest, Mr. Xiaya, I had also received a message from the Galactic Patrol Organization, but I have not come here because Galactic Patrol Organization entrusted me to it.”
“Then, why?” Xiaya became interested.
Raiga expression turned serious as he said: “Mr. Xiaya, you should have heard some rumors about me, right? I am originally from a uncivilized, low-level planet…”
Raiga spoke about his experience.
Xiaya listened attentively. Although he had long heard about Raiga’s past, Xiaya felt it to be much more wonderful, hearing it directly from Raiga’s mouth.
Raiga was originally an aboriginal from a low-level planet. When he was young, he had accidentally eaten a strange fruit which caused his strength to suddenly increase, creating a uproar in the nearby starfields. When they heard about Raiga’s “legend”, a large group of aliens rushed over to Raiga’s homeworld to investigate.
Naturally, they found nothing when they came to investigate because Raiga’s homeworld had long since somehow turned into a barren planet.
“In fact, they all thought I was lucky to pick up that fruit.” Raiga gave a complicated smile.
“Is there some other secret?” Xiaya asked.
Raiga said, “It’s more or less the same, but at that time, I didn’t just find one fruit, but a lot of them. Also, I had no idea how an enormous, demonic tree had suddenly appeared on my homeworld, and because of that demonic tree, no sunlight shone upon my homeworld for many years.”
“But I destroyed that demonic tree in the end, so the people who came afterward weren’t able to find a trace of it.”
“Before that, I had eaten a lot of fruits while thinking that they were a reward from G.o.d. But who would have thought that something worse had yet to come, my homeworld began to continuously appear more barren, and soon, not even a single blade of gra.s.s grew anymore. It was at that time I realized how evil that demonic tree was…”
“So, I destroyed it!”
At this point, Raiga’s handsome face was suffused with complicated emotions. He loathed the demonic tree that destroyed his homeworld, but he was also grateful to the demonic tree for his life’s achievements……
“Tree of Might’s Fruit!” While he listened to Raiga’s description, the image of the Tree of Might appeared in Xiaya’s mind, and his expression couldn’t help but become serious.
The demonic tree that Raiga had described was similar to the Tree of Might that Xiaya knew of; it would also turn an entire planet barren, resulting in a dead planet.
Raiga glanced at Xiaya with astonishment and nodded, “Yes, it was Tree of Might. Afterward, I went to Planet Bakuf and pored through a lot of information, until I finally found a doc.u.ment that recounted the origin of that demonic tree.”
“Is Mr. Raiga’s visit to Planet Hongshan because of the Tree of Might?”
“Yes, I went back to my homeworld a few years ago and found out that the Tree of Might’s previous location had been upturned by someone. They had taken away the remaining Tree of Might’s Fruits!”
“Do you still have those fruits?” Xiaya exclaimed.
Raiga sighed, “Maybe I wasn’t too greedy at that time. After destroying the demonic tree, I only kept a few fruits… Now it seems like, I may have made a mistake—”
“You want us to help you locate the whereabouts of the Tree of Might?” Xiaya quickly understood Raiga’s intentions.
Xiaya didn’t understand why the other party would turn to the Saiyans for help, knowing their reputation. Wasn’t he worried that Saiyan would turn on him and hog all the fruits of Tree of Might?
Raiga shook his head, “I already know the approximate position of that demonic tree. I secretly went over there to observe, and it seems that someone else had already again planted the tree there, but there are two very powerful experts guarding it. With my strength alone, it’s difficult for me to beat them!”
“Therefore, I need your help. I can give you all those demonic fruits, as long as you help me destroy the demonic tree, and promise that it will not be re-planted in the future! This is my long-cherished wish to wash away the guilt towards my homeworld.”
Xiaya lowered his head and pondered. He desired the fruits of the Tree of Might as they were formed from the lifeforce of a planet. After eaten it, there would surely be many benefits. Although it was unlikely that these fruits would cause Xiaya’s strength to increase immensely, he would surely gain some benefits. Unlike other medicines or plants, the Tree of Might’s Fruit was primarily made up of life force.
But there were two guardians next to the Tree of Might who even Raiga, whose Battle Power was close to 180,000, couldn’t capture. They were most likely not weak.
“Well, I can promise you.” Xiaya lifted his head and said with sincerity.
“Really?” Raiga asked, pleasantly surprised.
He knew that Xiaya, the leader of Planet Hongshan’s Saiyans, was extremely strong—with over 700,000 Battle Power. As long as he is willing to help, destroying the demonic tree was a matter of course. Raiga had no idea that Xiaya’s strength had increased rapidly in the past few years, and now it was completely beyond his imagination.
“We, Saiyans, can help you destroy the Tree of Might, but all its Fruits will be taken away by Saiyans according to my demand.” Xiaya clearly specified the terms in order to prevent disagreements later on.
“Ok, I just want to destroy the demonic tree to fulfill my long cherished desire!” Raiga was in a good mood as he laughed.
“The demonic tree reappeared in the northwest region of the East Area; a place called Planet Bahert!”
“Planet Bahert, I will remember it. I will arrange personnel, and then we will immediately go over there.” Xiaya said to Raiga.
Afterward, Xiaya had Charlene arrange a room for Raiga to rest, while he convened with all the higher-ups of Planet Hongshan.
As this was an important matter pertaining to the future of the Saiyans—aside from Adri, Brook and some others who had gone out to temper themselves—everyone showed up, including Bardoc, Alice, Lise, and others.
“This Tree of Might’s Fruits must be obtained!”
After listening to Xiaya gave a general introduction of the Tree of Might’s Fruit, Bardock spoke without hesitation. If they didn’t take what heaven has given them, they would have to accept its punishment in turn. In his opinion, the Tree of Might’s Fruits were a rare treasure, and there was no reason whatsoever to give it up.
Besides, Xiaya, the current leader of Saiyans, had power beyond the reach of ordinary people. If he and the other Saiyans also help from side, the probability of them obtaining the fruits would be really high. It would be a pity if they doesn’t give it a try!
Xiaya also nodded. Naturally, he had considered other aspects. The Tree of Might’s fruits may not be of much help to him, Xiling, and the others in improving their Battle Power; however, they could still provide immense benefits that’ll aid them in training their bodies. For most Ordinary Warriors, Elite Warriors, and even Super Warriors on Planet Hongshan, the fruits would greatly improve their Battle Power or aid in training their bodies.
Moreover, if he didn’t take it himself, then someone else would, and he wasn’t willing to aid his enemies!
