Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 98: By the Order of the King? (First Update)
Dark universe, inside the Black Dragon spacecraft.

"Ten seconds left, the spacecraft is about to travel through space and leave the dark universe." Babata's voice suddenly sounded from the command room, "Ten, nine, eight, seven, ... three, two, one!"

Wang Xiu and others who were immersed in cultivation woke up naturally, and then they only felt a vibration in the spacecraft, which returned to normal after ten seconds.

Wow!
Without Luo Feng's order, Babata naturally turned on the exterior scene simulation.

The familiar white star appeared in front of everyone again.

"We've arrived at Bai Lanxing." Wang Xiu stood up and stretched his body, then said with a smile, "Let's go downstairs and go directly to the warehouse."

No one had any objection. In fact, just based on the many properties that Luo Feng had previously purchased on Bailan Star, it was enough for the officials of Bailan Star to treat them like masters.

……

Bailan Star, warehouse base.

As the official administrative star directly under the Silver-Blue Empire, the highest ruling officials of Bailan Star are generally directly appointed by the central government of the Silver-Blue Empire.

Tel himself was born into one of the three major families on the White Orchid Star. Relying on his family's financial resources and his own ninth-level star-level strength, he was successfully appointed as the highest administrative officer of the White Orchid Star this term.

Responsible for all affairs on Bailan Star.

As a local boss and the highest official on White Orchid Star appointed by the Empire, Tel's life was originally very comfortable.

After all, Bai Lanxing is a damn place with a cold climate and, most importantly, it is extremely remote. Even space pirates rarely visit Bai Lanxing.

As the current patriarch of the Safin family, the most powerful of the three major families on Bailan Star, even if he does not have the status of the highest governor of Bailan Star, he is still the undisputed local emperor of Bailan Star. Almost no one on the entire Bailan Star would dare not give him face.

Normally, Tel would hardly think about anything else except enjoying himself.

If there is any problem, there are people to handle it.

For example, when Luo Feng purchased the warehouse base before, he was received by Bart, the director of the Commercial Bureau of Bailan Star.

However, Tel, who had always been unwilling to take charge of things, for the first time ever, appeared in the open space on the snowy warehouse base with a group of officials.

Among the officials behind Tel, Bart, the director of the Commercial Bureau who received Luo Feng last time, looked at Tel who was standing in the front, bowing slightly and looking extremely respectful, and felt very confused.

"I don't know what kind of important person is in the spaceship to make the usually high-handed Lord Tel so respectful." Bart glanced at the cyan spaceship parked in the front and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "I haven't even seen the person yet, and I've been waiting in this icy and snowy place for most of the day. This is the first time I've seen Lord Tel like this."

Yes, Bart still doesn't know who is in the spaceship parked in front.

He only knew that he hadn't started work yet when he suddenly received a message from Tel, asking him to go to the warehouse base.

The tone and wording were extremely harsh.

Bart was so scared that he jumped up from his lover, and without even having time to drink a sip of water, he rushed to the warehouse base.

When he arrived, Tel was already there in this position.

Seeing this, Bart didn't even dare to ask. He just followed behind Tel, imitating him and waiting silently.

This wait took half a day!

"Maybe it's a big shot from the empire. Seeing how nervous Tel is, is he here to remove him from his position?"

"That shouldn't be the case. If that's the case, why wasn't there any news before?"

A duck is the first to know when the river water warms in spring. Although the supreme ruler of a planet is not static, normally, such administrative personnel in office can more or less sense such major changes.

In their circle, so-called gossip spreads the fastest.

There will be some rumors anyway.

Bart couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it and started thinking about whether he could move his position if Tel stepped down.

Although the Director of the Commercial Bureau is not the head of the Commercial Bureau, he has a lot of power and is mainly responsible for the real estate and land transactions on Bailan Star.

If this position were placed on some prosperous planet, it would definitely be a lucrative job.

But it is not good enough on Bailan Star.

Bailan Star is extremely remote and its climate is extremely cold and harsh. To people on the prosperous planets of the empire, it is no different from a place of exile.

Moreover, there are no valuable mineral resources on Bailan Star. The only thing worth mentioning is that there is a lot of land and it is cheap.

But apart from the natives of Bailan Star, there are very few people like Luo Feng who are willing to buy warehouses or real estate and land on Bailan Star.

In addition, Bailan Star is almost entirely controlled by the three major families, and almost all industries that can make money are monopolized by the three major families.

This resulted in him being extremely frustrated in his job as Director of the Commerce Department, and not being able to make any money at all.

While Bart was thinking about how to go further, Tel, who was standing in the front of the group, felt secretly bitter in his heart.

Bai Lan Star is too cold. Even with the physical fitness of the ninth level of the star class, the temperature of Bai Lan Star is still not enough.

But who doesn’t like a warm and comfortable environment?

Not to mention that he has been living a life of luxury since childhood, so he has never experienced such hardship.

But Tel only dared to complain in his heart, and did not dare to show it on his face.

Because he knew that the person in the spaceship in front of him was a super powerful person!
One could tell from the spaceship that, although he was only a ninth-level star, he had a good vision thanks to his status as an imperial official and his family's wealth.

He was certain that the spaceship in front of him was definitely above Class E!
No matter how powerful someone is, he cannot afford to offend anyone who is qualified to ride on a spaceship above Class E.

……

Outside the White Orchid Star, after the Black Dragon spacecraft entered the atmosphere, it quickly arrived above the warehouse base under the control of Babata.

When the Black Dragon spacecraft passed through the clouds, Wang Xiu in the command room of the Black Dragon spacecraft couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.

"There's another spaceship below, but why are there so many people standing in front of it?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng and the other two nodded.

"It should be an official from Bailan Star. I saw Director Bart who received us when we purchased the warehouse before." Luo Feng said at this time.

"Really." Hearing this, the Thunder God looked carefully and said, "What are they doing here? Aren't they here to welcome us?"

"Are the officials on Bailan Star so well-informed?"

There were four people on the spaceship. Wang Xiu entered the Qianwu secret realm, and Hong and Lei Shen entered the core layer of the Qianwu Taoist temple.

In terms of status, even the Emperor of the Silver-Blue Empire has to be respectful when meeting him.

If an official from a small Bailan Star knew the news, it would seem reasonable for him to come and greet them in advance.

"Don't you think you are too important?" At this time, Babata's voice sounded from the screen, "Besides, Bailan Star is just a remote planet of the Silver Blue Empire. How can they find out about you?"

"You think too highly of them."

"Huh?" Luo Feng was stunned at this moment, looking at the screen in the command room, "You said they are not here to greet us?"

"Then what are they?"

Babata on the screen couldn't help but sigh helplessly: "Did you see that spaceship parked in front of them?"

"That's a top-level E-class spaceship!"

"They're here for the big shot in this spaceship."

"If my guess is correct, the person sitting in that spaceship should be the immortal who came to pick up Wang Xiu."

After Babata finished speaking, the four Wang Xiu brothers couldn't help but look at each other.

Did the joke I made before really come true?
At this time, Babata no longer hesitated and immediately controlled the Black Dragon spacecraft to accelerate its landing.

At this moment, the White Orchid Star officials standing below also noticed the Black Dragon spacecraft that was landing.

Seeing the Black Dragon spaceship in the sky preparing to land next to the E-class spaceship, Tel suddenly became anxious and looked back at the people behind him:
"Does anyone know who is in that spaceship? Contact them immediately and ask them to land somewhere else!"

Although Tel could tell at a glance that this was the Black Dragon Mountain X81 model, he knew that the person sitting inside must be a big shot from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

If it were normal, Tel would definitely be courteous to the other party, but now, Tel could not care so much.

It's just the Heilongshan X81. After all, it's just a luxury item among C-class spaceships. In front of someone who is qualified to ride an E-class spaceship, is there any need to say who it should favor?
At this moment, Director Bart, who was behind Tel, was shocked when he saw the Black Dragon spaceship. Isn't this the spaceship of the God of Wealth who spent a lot of money on him not long ago?
Hearing Tel's words at this moment, Bart didn't care about anything else and immediately took out the auxiliary light computer to contact Luo Feng.

"Dear guest, it is not convenient to land here for the time being. Please go to the planet's docking port. Thank you for your cooperation."

Inside the Black Dragon spaceship, everyone couldn't help but laugh as they listened to Babata read out the message from Bart.

"It seems that the officials below are anxious." Thor said with a smile.

"How can we not be anxious? That's an E-class spaceship." Babata said disdainfully, "I guess those officials are almost scared to death now."

"Wang Xiu, Luo Feng, should we respond to them?" Babata looked at Luo Feng and Wang Xiu. "No, just land directly." Wang Xiu said directly.

"Listen to Brother Xiu." Luo Feng said immediately upon seeing this.

"No problem!" Babata was also a little excited. He was known as the Devil Babata back then, and he loved things like messing with people's mentality.

The officials who were heading straight here and watching the Black Dragon spacecraft's flight trajectory change without any change were all stunned.

Tel was even more furious.

"Bart, didn't you just say you could contact them?" Tel pulled Bart in front of him and roared in a low voice, "Then why don't they react at all now?"

"Well... well, sir, I don't know either. The owner of this Black Dragon spaceship was one of my former big clients. I did send a warning, but they didn't reply to me."

Looking at Tel's ferocious face and the Black Dragon spaceship that showed no reaction at all, Bart almost cried in his heart.

Obviously, we got along quite well when we worked together before.

God knows what went wrong with that guest today?

"Contact me again, contact me again!" Tel didn't care about that. He pushed Bart away and said coldly, "If you make that adult angry, your whole family will be buried with me!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Bart felt like crying but had no tears when he heard that.

He now began to hate himself for what he had done just now. Why did he take the initiative to do this?

If I had known earlier, I would have just said I didn’t know.

But it was too late to regret now. Bart immediately picked up the auxiliary computer and began to contact Luo Feng frantically.

……

On the other side, everyone on the Black Dragon spaceship looked calm.

As for those messages Bart sent?

Babata simply ignored it and didn't even mention it to anyone else.

……

Soon, under the desperate eyes of the White Orchid officials, especially Bart and Tel, the Black Dragon spacecraft slowly landed next to the E-class spacecraft.

"It's over." Tel didn't have time to scold Bart at this moment. He could only pray in his heart that the noble being in the E-class spacecraft would not care about this matter.

Wow!
Just after the Black Dragon spacecraft landed and came to a stop, the hatch of the E-class spacecraft suddenly opened slowly.

A middle-aged man who looked like an Earthling appeared outside the cabin door.

The moment this man appeared, a powerful aura oppressed everyone present so much that they couldn't breathe.

At the same time, everyone also felt an ancient and eternal aura from the middle-aged man.

"Terrible! The aura of this great existence is much more terrifying than the realm master I met before in the Silver-Blue Empire!" The leader, Tel, howled wildly in his heart!
Tel is also knowledgeable. He is a being more powerful than the Realm Lord, and the answer is obvious to him!

Immortal, definitely an immortal strong man.

"It's completely over now." Tel was filled with despair.

Once a great immortal being gets angry, not to mention the White Orchid Planet, even the entire Silver-Blue Empire cannot withstand his wrath.

"It's all the fault of that Black Dragon spaceship." At this moment, Tel attributed all his resentment to the Black Dragon spaceship that had just appeared.

It is believed that it was this Black Dragon spacecraft that angered this great immortal.

"Haha, it's great to have a Black Dragon Mountain X81?"

"Is it because he is a big shot of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire? He is used to being domineering and finally hits a wall?"

"But why did you bring us with you if you wanted to die?"

"But it's good. It's worth it to have a big shot from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire die with us."

Tel slowly closed his eyes, quietly waiting for death to come soon.

But suddenly, a laugh came into Tel's ears.

"Who is it?" Tel opened his eyes instantly, his eyes were cold, and he began to look around for the source of the laughter.

Everyone is about to die, yet you can still laugh?
Did he feel that he was unlucky and that he could escape unscathed?

But suddenly, Tel's body froze, he slowly turned around and looked ahead in disbelief.

The great immortal who had looked so dignified just now now had a smile on his face.

And what the great immortal is facing at this moment is - the people in the black dragon spaceship!

Tel looked at the great immortal who was talking to the person who walked out of the Black Dragon spacecraft. The scene seemed to be a little... cheerful?
"Huh." Tel let out a long breath, "I survived."

At this moment, Tel only felt his legs going a little weak. He turned around to look at the people around him and found that everyone had the same expression.

Tel looked at Wang Xiu and others in the distance who remained neither humble nor arrogant in the face of a great immortal, and Tel swallowed hard.

"Bart, when you contacted the Black Dragon spaceship just now, your words were not too... excessive, right?" Tel grabbed Bart and swallowed.

"Probably... not." Bart was a little confused by Tel's sudden change.

"Is there or not?" Tel asked angrily.

"No, absolutely not!" Bart said quickly upon seeing this, "Because he is their big customer, my words were always very polite when I contacted him."

"Phew, that's good." Tel's heart, which had just been in a tense state, was put at ease again, and he looked at Bart, the director of the Commercial Bureau.

He hadn't noticed it at first, but now he likes Bart more and more.

"Bart, you have been working as the director of the Commercial Bureau for more than ten years, right?" Tel said, smiling and patting the other's shoulder.

"Yes, Lord Tel, in another three months, it will be exactly twelve years." Bart was moved when he heard this and immediately said respectfully.

"Twelve years." Tel said with emotion, "In the past twelve years, our business on Bailan Star has been thriving, and you, the Director of the Commerce Bureau, have made an indelible contribution."

This is pure bullshit.

The many officials behind Tel couldn't help but secretly shake their heads when they heard this. After so many years, there was no business at all on Bailan Star.

Still thriving, really...

But Bart didn't care about all that. He was extremely happy at the moment. From what Tel said, he wanted to be promoted!
"Lord Tel, you are joking. It's all thanks to your good leadership." Bart replied immediately without any hesitation.

"Yes." Tel nodded in satisfaction. "Are you interested in moving up to become the Director of the Commercial Bureau and continue to contribute to the commercial development of our White Orchid Star?"

Although Bart was not very fond of the Commercial Bureau, he was promoted after all and became the director of the Commercial Bureau. He was considered to have entered the core layer of the Bailanxing officialdom.

Make sure you make money!

"Everything is arranged by the leadership."

……

the other side.

Wang Xiu didn't know now that because of his existence, Director Bart, by chance, actually jumped into the core layer of officials of Bailan Star.

At this moment, he was dealing with the immortal who came to greet him.

He originally thought that even if an immortal arrived early, it would be impossible for him to wait for him here silently.

No matter what, I have to send him a message or something.

Unexpectedly...

This made Wang Xiu feel flattered, especially when he saw the other person's smiling face, he felt even more embarrassed.

Immortality also requires dignity.

"My Lord God, I am so flattered by your doing this." Wang Xiu came in front of the immortal and said politely with a smile.

“Young friend Wang Xiu, there is no need to do this.” The immortal also smiled and said, “I am here in the name of the king to take you to the Qianwu Secret Realm.”

"You can just call me Love."

"Lord Luo Fu, did you just say that you were following the orders of the king?" Wang Xiu said in surprise.
