âSplash!âThe starfish seemed to have noticed Jiang Fei and jumped back into the water. With a wave, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Fei took a few steps to the shore. He picked up the stone that had just fallen from the starfishâs body. The energy fluctuation from the stone was even weaker. It was almost impossible to feel.
âCrack...âJiang Fei carefully pried open the outer shell of the stone and revealed the gemstone inside.
In an instant, a pure spatial energy spread out. Its strength was much stronger than the ones little nine had eaten before!
âI see...âJiang Fei nodded to himself. He already understood what was going on.
These spatial crystals were definitely the remnants of the starfishâs cultivation after it absorbed the moonlight. When they were first thrown out, because the outer shell of the stone was very tightly sealed, there was very little energy leakage.
However, as time passed, the outer shell of the stone armor became less and less sealed. Therefore, the energy of the gemstones inside was dispersed. This way, although the energy aura of the stones became denser.., the energy in the gemstones inside became less and less as they dispersed.
âNo wonder the energy aura of the stones outside was denser. Little nine only became full after eating so much! It turns out that I did not find the right thing from the beginning!âJiang Fei smiled.
âI wonder what that starfish is...âJiang Fei muttered as he picked up the pebbles that had almost no energy reaction and returned to Little Nineâs sleeping cave, then, he carefully pried open the outer shell of the pebbles.
As expected, the gemstones in these stones contained even more powerful energy. In order to prevent the energy from dissipating, Jiang Fei kept all of these gemstones into his inheritance space.
âIt will be easier once I understand the rules!âJiang Fei was delighted. He then sat in the cave and cultivated while waiting for little nine to wake up.
After another day, little nine finally digested the energy and woke up.
âAh! I slept so well!âLittle nine stretched.
âDid you sleep well?âJiang Fei opened his eyes.
âYes, yes!âLittle Nine said happily.
âLetâs go back to the beast gathering and see how the illusion stones are doing,âJiang Fei said. If he could obtain the illusion stones directly, it would be much more convenient than having little nine summon him.
âBut those stones...âlittle nine was a little reluctant to part with the stones near the small lake.
âItâs okay, letâs take them all!âJiang Fei smiled as he came to the lakeside. Then, he jumped up and waved his hand, keeping the stones into the inheritance space.
âWow! Why are all the stones gone?âLittle nine cried out in surprise.
âItâs alright, theyâre all with Big Brother!âJiang Fei smiled.
âReally?âLittle Nine asked.
âLook!âJiang Fei raised his hand and a pebble appeared in his hand.
âWow!âLittle Nine snatched the pebble away. Then, she quickly peeled off the pebble and revealed the gem inside.
âAwoo!âAfter swallowing the gemstone in one gulp, little nine revealed a satisfied expression.
âAlright, letâs go back first!âJiang Fei said as he pulled little nine up.
âOkay!âLittle nine nodded. Then, she returned to the gathering of beasts with Jiang Fei.
..
âMaster, youâre back!âAs soon as Jiang Fei arrived at the gathering of beasts, everyone came out to welcome him.
âWhatâs the matter?âJiang Fei asked with a smile.
âMaster, these are the illusion stones that you wanted!âThis time, Qi Meng had also collected quite a number of illusion stones. In an instant, he had obtained 30 illusion stones for Jiang Fei.
âHMM! Not Bad!âJiang Fei took the illusion stones and then asked, âAlright, Iâll take the illusion stones too. If you have anything to say, just say it.â
Jiang Fei had been out and about for so many years. What had he not seen? Therefore, when he saw Qi Mengâs posture, he knew that he had a favor to ask of him.
âHehe...âQi Meng smiled awkwardly. Then, he said to Jiang Fei, âSir, can I have a word with you?â
âSure!âJiang Fei nodded. Then, he followed Qi Meng to a quiet place.
âSay it,âJiang Fei smiled and said.
âSir... Itâs like this. About the incident two days ago...âQi Meng was a little embarrassed to say it. The incident with yellow pancake two days ago was not a big deal, but it was embarrassing.
âItâs okay. Itâs all in the past.âJiang Fei thought that Qi Meng was worried that he would hold a grudge against him because of this, so he said with a smile.
âSir, Iâm saying that this incident has made me a little embarrassed. I donât really want to stay in the thousand beasts gathering anymore. Can you help me move around and ask the Elders Guild to change a job for me...âQi Meng said with an embarrassed smile.
âOh...âJiang Fei hesitated for a moment. He really did not know anyone from the Elders Guild.
âMaster, I wonât let you work for nothing. Other than helping you to continue collecting illusion stones, I also have a cup of tea for You!âQi Meng said as he took out an inner core from his pocket. This inner core was emitting space-type energy.
Obviously, before looking for Jiang Fei, Qi Meng had already asked about Jiang Feiâs preferences, so he had specially prepared a gift.
âHehe, youâre really thoughtful, Kid!âJiang Fei laughed.
âHehe, please accept it, my Lord. Also, please feel free to ask for the money needed to smooth things over!âQi Meng was different from Ao Guang from before. Although they were both guarding the ten thousand beasts gathering, the ten thousand beasts gathering on the guardian star was very lucrative, it was not something that other planets could compare to.
Therefore, Qi Mengâs position could be said to be a lucrative one. However, everyone had the heart to go higher. Although the Ten Thousand Beasts gathering guarding the Guardian Star had a lot of money, their status was still underground. Therefore, after Qi Meng had accumulated enough money.., his thoughts could not help but become active.
However, being assigned to guard the ten thousand beasts gathering meant that Qi Meng had no one backing him. Although he was not as miserable as Ao Guang, he was still not worthy of being a member of the Elder Council, now that he had met an upper-level dragon royal, Qi Meng had some ideas.
âHMM... Alright, Iâll give it a try.âJiang Fei saw little nine staring at the inner core. He shook his head and agreed to give it a try.
Although Jiang Fei did not have much contact with the Elders Guild, it was fortunate that when he helped Ao Guang the last time, he had met the ninth elder once. Anyway, he had asked someone to give him a gift. As long as there was a breakthrough, it would be fine. As for the others.., he could ask him to do it for him after he got through to the ninth elder.
âThank you, my Lord!âQi Meng was overjoyed. Ever since he had the money, he had not wanted to do this job anymore.
âOkay!âJiang Fei nodded. At the same time, he also had another idea. Although he did not have a deep relationship with Ao Guang, they had known each other for a while. If Qi Meng succeeded in getting promoted, Jiang Fei would not mind giving Ao Guang a push, he would let the ninth elder transfer him to the star of suppression to watch over the ten thousand beasts gathering.
Although their status was equally low, at least the star of suppression had a lot of money. This way, Ao Guang could collect the dowry as soon as possible.
