Chapter 765: Chapter 550: Another Star Alliance (Two in One)

A thousand points, which, for the current Zhang Xiaoman, was not a large sum, easily spent on random purchases.

However, now was not the time to fret about such matters, for the priority was to deal with the Angel before him.

“Naphaya, your sudden appearance today indeed took me by surprise… Don’t worry, since I promised I would spare you, I won’t go back on my word.”

Zhang Xiaoman sensed the giant creature nearby trembling slightly, aware of its fear, and immediately offered a reassurance to prevent any desperate actions.

As expected, upon hearing these words, the Holy Angel visibly relaxed.

At that moment, Naphaya also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The person before it was on the same level as the Demon Lord, and since he had made a promise, it probably wouldn’t deceive itself.

But before it could fully relax, the next words from Zhang Xiaoman made its heart lurch.

“However, the Dimension Rift has now been closed, and you temporarily cannot return. As an outsider who knows of my existence, it seems I cannot simply let you leave…”

“This, this… I wonder, great being, what do you plan to do with me?”

Naphaya was not foolish; it merely panicked briefly before regaining its composure, as its opponent clearly had plans for it.

Zhang Xiaoman glanced at it and said:

“I once personally opened a space where I still need a custodian. Would you be willing to guard it for me for a while?”

His words made his intention quite clear.

“Opened space… custodian…”

Naphaya silently repeated Zhang Xiaoman’s words a few times in its mind and felt secretly delighted.

It felt that, although it seemed like a punishment, it very much suited its wishes.

As a Middle-Level Controller, being valued by an Upper Transcendent and entrusted with a duty was an opportunity countless beings could only dream of.

And for it, being a guard was nothing.

Having lived countless years, now having the chance to stick with such a powerful figure, not to mention being a guard, it would accept even more stringent conditions willingly.

Thereupon, Naphaya once again bowed to Zhang Xiaoman:

“Thank you for your mercy, great being. I am willing to be your loyal subordinate. Wherever your will points, so shall my blade!”

Its spirit fluctuation spread out, surprising Zhang Xiaoman a bit.

Although he knew he could likely easily subdue this giant creature, he hadn’t expected it to go so smoothly.

However, he wouldn’t dare take it lightly as the other suggested, haphazardly using it as a mere enforcer.

After all, his true strength was currently too low, and he could only deceive it into going to the Original Realm.

Releasing it would still use that same caution, as it was easy to get exposed.

Feeling somewhat regretful that he couldn’t make use of such a powerful minion for now, Zhang Xiaoman remained impassive and nodded slightly, then said:

“Very well, since that’s the case, you shall accompany me shortly.”

He then pointed toward the gradually rising moon in the sky and continued:

“See there? I’ll be waiting for you on its far side…”

Zhang Xiaoman had no choice; for safety, he didn’t want the other to enter the Original Realm through the Final Gate on Rebirth Island, opting instead to go through the Tree Gate from the Moon Base.

As he was about to leave, he suddenly heard Naphaya speak:

“Great being… I still do not know how to address you… Would you, if I may ask, share your honorable name…”

The Holy Angel spoke timidly, very cautiously.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiaoman responded:

“A name? I am the Star Alliance Leader, you may call me Lord Jixing.”

“Lord Jixing…”

Naphaya muttered to itself in its heart, then as if it suddenly thought of something, its mood became somewhat excited.

“Star Alliance… Star Alliance… Could it be that Star Alliance?”

“Oh? You’ve heard of the Star Alliance?”

Now it was Zhang Xiaoman’s turn to be surprised.

He hadn’t expected that the other had also heard of the Star Alliance’s name. It seemed that its universe also had an organization of the same name.

“Yes, great being, Lord Jixing!”

“Go on, tell me.”

“Certainly.”

As Naphaya slightly raised its bowing figure, it explained:

“The thing is, I’ve heard the name ‘Star Alliance’ from an elder in my clan before; I’ve never seen it with my own eyes…”

“It’s said that a long time ago, when two universes first began their Fusion, the Demon Lord once opened a portal and had a brief interaction with an entity from another space. And according to rumors, that force which interacted with the Demon Lord was indeed the Star Alliance…”

Having finished, it added somewhat nervously:

“I’m very sorry, Lord Jixing, that’s all I know. It’s all hearsay; please forgive me if there’s any misunderstanding…”

Although Naphaya said so, at this moment, its heart believed the rumor to be seventy to eighty percent true.

After all, it had now seen the real Star Alliance Master in this universe, which confirmed the rumor was not false; the organization truly existed!

Moreover, the power of the person before it was also at the Upper Transcendent Level, the same level as the Demon Lord, naturally possessing the strength to converse with such a being.

Thus, the rumor was likely absolutely true.

However, what was shocking was that it had unexpectedly walked into the presence of the other party, seemingly having accidentally stumbled into a colossal conspiracy.
