Chapter 1026: Red Dwarf Star

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Xia Fei had fabricated a lie, claiming that this asteroid belt was crawling with hidden sentries from the Inverse, scaring Boss Xiang badly. After all, these were the monstrous Inverse. No one was willing to fight with them.

Xiang Beiyang quickly realized that if Xia Fei could tell him that sentries were hidden in the area, he had to know their location. If he brought Xia Fei back with him, he might be able to avoid disaster.

Thus, Boss Xiang turned around to try and convince Xia Fei into coming back with him. However, as he turned his head, his eyes were transfixed, for Xia Fei’s little ball was none other than Holy Beast Shatterstar!

*Zing~*

Boss Xiang went pale, and he grew even more afraid. As a businessman who specialized in the exotic beast trade, he naturally understood what sort of class Furball belonged to. Moreover, Boss Xiang also understood that Holy Beasts did not follow just anyone. Anyone. who could raise a Holy Beast was no easy customer!

Thinking about how Xia Fei had been alone in this dangerous asteroid belt and had avoided the sweep of the Inverse, Xiang Beiyang felt like this young man was a reclusive master or a descendant of some big clan who had come out to travel. Otherwise, how else could Xia Fei be so indifferent when speaking about the cruel Inverse?

“Little Brother, Red Dwarf Star is the largest base in the area, so I presume that you’re going there? I won’t hide it from you, but our ship’s radar system has a problem and will sometimes work and sometimes not work . In order to avoid conflict with the Inverse, we will have to rely on Little Brother for guidance.” Xiang Beiyang bowed, his tone becoming very genial and warm.

The Hunters were instantly confused. To capture the Diamond Dragonflies, Boss Xiang had rented the fastest warship in the Red Dwarf Star, the Stellar River. How had this elite warship of Red Dwarf Star suddenly become a shabby ship with a flaw?

They were about to speak when the short-bearded lead Hunter shot them all a glance, silencing everyone. Having also noticed Furball, he knew that someone with a Holy Beast was not to be provoked.

Xia Fei pretended to refuse a little before finally agreeing to board Xiang Beiyang’s ship.

The Stellar River’s radar was naturally fine. Xia Fei understood what Xiang Beiyang wanted and did not ask. He randomly pointed at a few points on the star map and solemnly told Xiang Beiyang that they would have to be careful while passing through these areas.

Xiang Beiyang was carrying three precious Diamond Dragonflies. Even if he suspected Xia Fei of lying, he would rather believe his words than not. He ordered the captain to avoid the areas pointed out by Xia Fei and urged to be careful on the way back.

As he finally left the Inverse territory, Xia Fei exhaled in relief and headed to the room Xiang Beiyang had given him to ponder on his next step.

“You can’t go back to the Cosmic Gate, so let’s head to the Aurora Clan. It is a major clan of the Alpha Universe. Don’t you always say that one can only enjoy the shade while under a big tree? A big tree like that might be able to ensure the safety of the Law Realm. While Hosu did seal the Cosmic Gate, that sealing lacked preparation. The seal will fail after one hundred years, and the Law Realm will once more be subjected to the Inverse’s invasion,” Radix said.

Xia Fei said nothing. His greatest worry was Avril and his friends. When he heard that Hosu’s seal could keep the Law Realm safe for one hundred years, he calmed down a lot. Avril cultivated the Law of Life, so her lifespan was constantly increasing. Moreover, the Law Realm was still protected by Hosu and the Skywings, so there was no problem with safety. It was just that Xia Fei could not help but yearn for them.

His many years of adventuring had made him understand one thing: ‘To do something well, it is best to do it oneself.’ There was far too much backstabbing in the world, so?unless absolutely necessary, Xia Fei was unwilling to entrust the safety of the Law Realm to others.

Thus, Xia Fei decided to look around the Alpha Universe and raise his cultivation as much as possible. He would naturally visit the Aurora Clan, but he did not want to go there on his knees.

As he was thinking of this, someone knocked at his door. He opened the door and saw that it was Xiang Beiyang.

Xia Fei had already changed into a suit of exercise clothes, the Celestial Sole Warning armor tightly clinging onto his skin. He flashed him a harmless smile.

“Is Boss Xiang seeking me for something?” asked Xia Fei. When boarding the ship, he had already registered his name, so everyone knew who he was.

“It’s nothing big. I’m just wondering if Brother Xia knows anyone at Red Dwarf Star. Red Dwarf Star is a gathering place of Hunters, and you can meet all sorts of people there, so it’s best to be careful,” said Xiang Beiyang solemnly. They were out of the asteroid belt now; Xiang Beiyang was relieved that they had not encountered any Inverse.

Xiang Beiyang was very curious about Xia Fei’s identity and why he was raising a Holy Beast, so he had come to probe him out.

Xia Fei smiled and frankly admitted, “It’s my first time going to Red Dwarf Star, so I don’t have any acquaintances there.”

Xiang Beiyang slightly frowned. He was a local tycoon of the Red Dwarf Star, so he could tell that since Xia Fei was able to admit frankly that he had never been to that place before, it meant that the latter feared nothing, not even some secret plot from him.

His plain clothes and guileless smile caused Xiang Beiyang to be more on guard as he pondered on it further. If Xia Fei did not have the mindset of a master, he would not be this relaxed. This was not an attitude a normal person would have!

Glancing at the sleeping Furball on the bed, Xiang Beiyang said, “Brother Xia, to tell the truth, I have a few properties on Red Dwarf Star, so if you don’t mind, why don’t you live in one of my inns? I can properly take care of you there.

“It’s all because of Brother Xia’s directions that we were able to return safely. You’re my honored guest; if you have no objections, I’ll handle all your room and board during your stay on Red Dwarf Star,” offered Xiang Beiyang , thumping his chest.

Xia Fei would naturally not refuse when someone was offering to pay for his food and drink, so he readily agreed.

Xiang Beiyang changed the subject, staring at Furball and saying, “With such a unique appearance and peerless aura, I presume that this is one of the legendary Holy Beasts?”

Xia Fei nods, though he inwardly laughed. ‘What peerless aura? Furball is a lazy with fellow cunning streak, there’s nothing a peerless about him!’ Still, this was only normal. In battle, Furball went from a lovable soul into a figure that was just as intimidating as Xia Fei.

Radix frowned. “If Xiang Beiyang can recognize that Furball is a Holy Beast, then he must possess excellent judgment. What if he harbors ill intentions? Wouldn’t living in his inn be a lamb entering the lion’s mouth?”

Xia Fei nonchalantly replied, “You need to understand who the lamb is here.”

Radix was startled, but he realized that Xia Fei was telling the truth. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse, and while Xia Fei was injured and was not in fighting form, Furball and Peacock Blue were raring to go. If a fight really did occur, it would be hard to say who the lamb actually was.

After a few moments of silence, Xiang Beiyang finally broached the topic. “Brother Xia, this Holy Beast has a delightful appearance. If you agree, I’m willing to buy it at a high price.”

Xia Fei smiled as he countered, “When did Holy Beasts ever have a price?”

*Zing~*

Xiang Beiyang instantly turned red in the face. Holy Beasts were unique existences. There was no second Furball in the universe. In other words, every Holy Beast was priceless!

Taking another step back, Holy Beasts were not pekingese dogs. If a Holy Beast that had already recognized a master was given to him, Xiang Beiyang would be unable to obtain it no matter what he did. Him trying to bid for a Holy Beast was truly very ludicrously hasty.

Xiang Beiyang stuttered, “II was rash.” He then found an excuse to leave the room.

“I’m losing it. That Holy Beast already has a master, so how could it be traded for? Since Xia Fei has a Holy Beast, he can’t be lacking money. I really must be going senile in my old age, ” Xiang Beiyang reproached himself as he walked away.

...

Red Dwarf Star.

It was called Red Dwarf Star, but this planet was no dwarf at all. It was several sizes larger than Earth and had a population exceeding ten billion.

Most of its inhabitants were Hunters. There were a few Soul Hunters and Soul Eaters, but not a lot. After all, this was a remote area, and true Soul Hunters looked down on such a small planet.

Xiang Beiyang, who could not see through Xia Fei, gave a piece of paper to the latter and told him to go to his inn for lodging. He then hurried off to report the good news to his client. With the Diamond Dragonfly deal complete, Boss Xiang naturally was not stingy.

The inn was called the Beiyang Inn. It carried the name of the owner and had thirty-six rooms. On Red Dwarf Star, it was a middle-lower-class inn.

The manager of the inn had the surname Li and was rather self-interested. He saw how simple Xia Fei’s clothes were and concluded that he was not anyone too important. Thus, he gave him a small room in the basement. A few rays of sunlight seeped in through the small half-window, so it barely passed the grade.

Xia Fei grew up in poverty, so he was not too picky about his room. He immediately took it, seated himself cross-legged on the bed, and began to sort out his body’s condition.

After a silent night, Xia Fei woke up early in the morning to help himself to the buffet. Following which, he walked on the streets to understand what this place was like. Xia Fei would have to stay in the Alpha Mission for a very long time, and while he had gotten a lot of information from Radix about this side of the universe, seeing was better than hearing.

This was truly a city of Hunters. There were Law Sage experts, even quite a lot of Law Gods, wherever he looked. Xia Fei’s horizons had been broadened.

“So many experts! This would be incredible if this were the Law Realm,” Xia Fei squinted as he spoke.

Radix casually said, “This is nothing. Red Dwarf Star is far from the core. Once you get to the more prosperous area, you’ll realize that it’s actually Peak Law Gods and level 1 Founders that are most abundant in the Alpha Universe, their numbers even exceeding that of Law Sages.”

Xia Fei was shocked, suspiciously asking, “What’s going on with that? Peak Law Gods and level 1 Founders are way stronger than Law Sages, so why is that they’re more plentiful?”

Radix smiled. “What you don’t know is that while there’s a barrier between Law Sage and Law God, there’s an even greater barrier between Peak Law God and unlocking a Soul Mark! Many people reach Peak Law God but fail to unlock their Soul Mark, and since Law Gods have Seeds of Life and can’t die, over time, countless Peak Law Gods accumulate.

“There’s also a reason for so many level 1 Founders. Unlocking a Soul Mark doesn’t mean that one can hunt souls. Look at Xia Gucheng and Old Crane; they have Soul Mark and can use some soul power, but they’re still stuck in the Law Realm. Until they receive a soul weapon and learn how to use Soul Arts, they can’t be considered real Soul Hunters.”

As they chatted and strolled around, the morning quickly passed. Besides the might of the Alpha Universe, Xia Fei discovered an important problem. While he was rich in the Law Realm, he was now completely broke! He did not own even a single coin in the local currency....
