Chapter 894: Chapter 358: Absurd Investment Plan
[If the Huashi Star Domain crisis is resolved, please return quickly, as there are other star domains in need of support.]
This was a transmission sent to Xu Jin by Grand State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao. The message was very brief and the meaning was clear.
This could be considered a request for his aid.
It seems that although Dachen has dispatched elite teams to provide support to various star domains, not every team has been successful in stopping these star domains from linking up with the Ancestral Land Cave Heaven.
Xu Jin had stopped it twice before, and he knew the difficulty involved.
Before the messengers could gather the Star Domain Kings together and obtain the Heaven and Earth Star Will of the star domains to activate the Star Pivot Array, the difficulty was relatively manageable, with considerable operational space.
But once the Star Pivot Array was activated and the Altar Sky Road was established, the difficulty increased greatly.
Because within the Altar Sky Road, Sixth Tier cannot enter, only Fifth Tier can go in.
But going in as Fifth Tier means facing concentrated attacks from five or more Sixth Rank Late Stage and Peak alien race experts.
Even with a Sixth Tier Defensive Star Artifact, it can’t withstand. No wonder the State Preceptor sought his aid.
“Young Hero Qi, although our Huashi Star Domain has a Star-picking Tower Branch, we can only contact the main tower through special means, so the State Preceptor couldn’t send a direct transmission to you and had to send it through me.”
Seeing Xu Jin lost in thought, Domain Master Ji Cheng looked at Xu Jin and said.
“I understand.”
Xu Jin looked up at Domain Master Ji Cheng, “Domain Master Ji, the State Preceptor urgently summons! Currently, there shouldn’t be any problems within the Huashi Star Domain, right? If there are no more issues, I need to leave immediately and return to the Galaxy Battlefield.”
“Nothing more.”
Domain Master Ji Cheng shook his head, “During the ten days you were dissolving the Altar Sky Road, I led the army to capture the Fire Scale Royal City, and also subdued two Sixth Tier members of the Fire Scale Clan. The Rock Armor Clan’s Royal City had long been breached, and all the Sixth Tier main forces have died in battle.
What remains is to slowly sweep through the Huashi Star Domain with the troops and then take the opportunity to unify the Huashi Star Domain.”
“That’s good.” Xu Jin nodded, wanting to say something but hesitated a bit.
“If there’s something, just say it, Young Hero Qi.”
“It’s like this, the Xu Jin who died in battle before was a good friend of mine; his father and sister are currently in the Huashi Star Domain, so please take good care of them, Domain Master.”
Actually, Xu Jin felt quite hesitant about making this request.
If he did ask, it felt a bit superfluous, as if it would make Ji Cheng suspect something.
If he didn’t ask, he felt a bit uneasy.
After all, it concerned his own father and sister.
Xu Jin, having mingled in this circle for so long, deeply understood the concept of people becoming less important once they are out of sight.
Ultimately, even though Xu Jin knew it was not too appropriate to mention, and it might invite many assumptions, he still mentioned it.
This way, Xu Jin felt much more at ease.
Hearing this, Domain Master Ji Cheng burst into laughter, “Young Hero Qi is overthinking it, Xu Dajiang is my future in-law, one of the closest relatives in this world. Without needing Young Hero Qi to say anything, I’ll definitely take good care of them.
They will have the same standard of living as me!
If there’s danger, even if it means my own death in battle, I’ll make sure to send my in-law to safety in advance!”
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin was stunned.
Suddenly feeling a bit awkward.
He felt so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole and hide in it, thinking he was exposed.
Fortunately, Ji Hongli is not here at the moment, otherwise, it would have been unbearable.
Ji Hongli claimed her engagement was with Heavenly Saint Qi, but now Ji Cheng directly said Xu Dajiang is his in-law.
This…
Did he get exposed?
While Xu Jin was in shock, he suddenly thought of something, and his mind sank into the Star-picking Order, going over the chat records with Ji Hongli from the past few days.
Just a glance made Xu Jin want to curl his toes into the ground in embarrassment.
Exposed!
He was definitely exposed!
Ji Cheng must know by now that he is Xu Jin.
Previously, Xu Jin had overlooked this.
More than ten days ago, Ji Hongli sent Xu Jin a Starlight Transmission, addressing him as ‘Senior Brother’.
Afterward, uniformly calling Xu Jin ‘Senior Brother’.
But before this, Ji Hongli always addressed Xu Jin as ‘Senior Brother Qi’.
‘Senior Brother’ was always Xu Jin’s exclusive title.
This indicates that Ji Hongli already knew that Heavenly Saint Qi was Xu Jin.
And yet she didn’t reveal it!
This little girl is too mischievous!
Next time, she needs a spanking!
She has to be spanked!
So then Ji Cheng, naturally knows he is Xu Jin now.
While Xu Jin hesitated about whether to admit it, Ji Cheng suddenly said, “Young Hero Qi, this time, breaking through the Rock Armor Royal City and the Fire Scale Royal City, and including the previous defense of Hongli City, we have reaped quite a bounty.
According to the rules, the biggest share belongs to you. I have a list here; pick one part and take it with you.
Only after you take yours can others take theirs.”
Being experienced in worldly affairs, Ji Cheng had somewhat guessed Xu Jin’s thoughts and proactively brought up another topic, glossing over this segment.
After the initial embarrassment, Xu Jin calmed down.
What’s there to fear about a father-in-law!
The engagement is already there.
What’s there to fear!
It should be the father-in-law who should fear him.
The father-in-law should try every way possible to treat him well, so he would treat his daughter well!
According to past life thoughts, a father-in-law should be treated as a brother!
How about having a big drink some day?
With this mindset, Xu Jin openly took the catalog of loot from Ji Cheng, which was divided into two parts.
One part was mainly valuables, emphasizing Star Jade, various major Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and so on.
The other part focused on various exotic treasures.
Possibly because of the thorough search by many people, just a glance at the exotic treasures page made Xu Jin’s eyes focus.
Earth Dragon Ganoderma!
There was unexpectedly Earth Dragon Ganoderma that he needed.
The Changsheng Auction House had Red Sparrow Feather, but it wasn’t for sale; it required a trade of Earth Dragon Ganoderma.
The previous information indicated that Earth Dragon Ganoderma would appear in star domains dominated by Earth Element Power.
