The Star Palace (1)
At the Thousand Bamboo Island, inside the main courtyard of the Song family.
"Father, what happened to him?" Song Yin looked at Song Cang with a squinted eye, startled by his injuries.
"Sigh. This moronic brother of yours flirted with lady snow white, what did you think happened after?" Song Jia answered from Song Yi's side, shaking his head as he sat down on the exquisite wooden chair next to a fishing pond.
"H-He actually dare to shamelessly spout nonsense in front of sister snow white?" She froze her hand, unable to believe his words, before gulping," What happened after?"
At this moment, Song Yi grumbled, and angrily tossed Song Cang on the ground," Thankfully, I notice the commotion right outside the Ancestral mountain, if not, this idiot wouldn't have survived a slap from her!"
Thinking of that moment again, Song Yi felt the blood in his body clogged as he raggedly coughed," Ahem. Why can't this brat focus on his cultivation like your eldest brother, Song Qiu?"
"I can only hope that this incident does not affect our impression on that young master, otherwise, I will personally cripple this idiot, son of mine, in front of that young master!" He snorted, causing Song Yin to remain quiet.
She looked at Song Cang, sighing as she shakes her head in helplessness. It is not that she doesn't want to help him, but rather, this matter is completely out of her hand.
Moreover, ever since their mother died, Song Cang indulge more in entertainment and worldly things instead of pursuing cultivation.
This gave her father a headache for many years now.
Her eldest brother was a stark contrast compared to Song Cang, the youngest brother. As the middle sister, she didn't know what to say.
While Song Cang hang out with his friends, occasionally stirring up rackets on the island, Song Qiu would isolate himself in his own cave abode, cultivating through all four seasons.
Of the three siblings, Song Qiu was the most obsessed, but also the most powerful!
She was only 21 years old, but being the peak of the 2nd stage — Foundation, a step into the True Core Realm, she was already a genius.
Even so, she was far behind Song Qiu who already turned 26 this year, being the Completion of True Core Realm!
Of course, Song Qiu was her role model, and although she rarely gets to see him, they both share a close relationship.
At this moment, a servant rushed over to grab Song Cang from the floor, and looked at Song Yi,' This Young master Cang... If not for the Patriarch's generosity, would he be living as carefree as he is?' They sighed, shaking their head inwardly.
"Drop him off at his villa, I don't want to see him for the next couple of weeks!"
"Yes, patriarch!" They uniformly shouted, stopping their thoughts, then quickly drag the fainted Song Cang from the courtyard.
"What now brother?" Song Jia asked, sipping on the warm cup of tea provided by the servant, unbothered by this scene, showing a look of indifference as it seems like a recurring scene.
"Keep the other families at bay, I will deal with the outer gods!" He swung his arm, then walked away, and added," Once I deal with the outer gods, I will make sure to show those runts that they are not qualified to sit on the same table as my Song family!"\
Somewhere further away from earth, past the earth's star system, several stars' system away reside a relatively large planet that thrived with cultivation.
This planet had four continents, sitting in four different directions as they are separated by the endless sea.
However, it may seem small due to only having four continents, but the size of this planet was dozens of times vaster than the earth!
Not only that, in between each continent, in the vicinity of the ocean, countless islands come together to form their own cultivation world.
In particular, the southern continent is where the star palace is located!
At the center of the southern continent, is an imperial city, and within that city, resides the Star Palace, being one of the hegemony in the city.
You can even say that although they are powerful, there are greater power hidden in this imperial city alone, containing various factions from different star stream.
"How is the progress with that little planet?" Xang Zu, the manager of this particular Star Palace branch, coldly asked.
He had a chubby figure, despite that, he was quite tall, apparent by the way he posture himself as he sit straight on the antique wood.
"Manager Zu, t-there have been some slight mishaps!"
"Mishap?" He snorted, causing fluctuation in the natural law, then, a paramount pressure slammed the servant's back, almost cracking it in the process.
"Y-Yes! We sent a group of people to take control of the planet, including Yang Su, a half-step nascent soul to make sure there is no accident. But, those backward cultivators actually band together to resist our forces, especially that Peak Golden Core from that island who almost killed esteemed Yang Su!"
Hearing this Xang Zu frowned, then snorted," A Peak Golden Core contend with Yang Su?"
"With Yang Su's nomological insight toward the wind concept, he can even hold his ground against a newly formed nascent soul cultivator, let alone some Golden Core!"
"Unless... There is something special about that certain Golden Core." He stopped, before reaffirming," There is no backing behind this planet right?"
"Y-Yes Manager Zu, we have sent people to investigate this star system. This is a wild star system, and there is certainly no faction behind this system!"
At this moment, he threw his gaze outside the pavilion, gazing at the bustling street filled with mortals and cultivators from the 2nd floor, letting out a grumbled," Go and tell that old ghost Lang to go to that star system and take control over the planet, I will gift him a space shuttle, this matter is of utmost urgent!"
Being a branch manager, he had status, and he was responsible for the affairs of the Star Palace in this star stream.
Just then, the servant ran back to the first floor, wiping down the sweat on his forehead after disappearing from Xang Zu view.
Once again, peace and quiet resumed on the 2nd floor, with the occasional footstep of customers looking and admiring the wares that the Star Palace pavilion had to offer.
He looked into the distant sky and sighed," Why does the higher-up place so much importance on this particular planet?" Even though he was curious, he didn't dare to investigate or interfere in this matter.
There's a reason why he managed to climb to the position of branch manager —knowing when to question and when to comply is that reason!
...
Time flew, the bird chirped, leaves rustled, nightfall, and sunrise.
Just like that, three days have already passed.
"Young master, what are you doing?" Tulan asked curiously, staring at Yu Yan's ridiculous posture as he hold the phone in a strange position.
"Nothing, I'm trying out this league of immortal game, we are currently tied in terms of power at the moment." He plainly replied, before smacking his teeth," Damn, that Lucy bind and ult combo just one shot me!"
Seeing this, she helplessly shook her head, then laid her back against the wooden chair and questioned," Young master, are you not making any move?"
"Make my move?" He chuckled, then waved his arm dispassionately," No, I am waiting for them to make their move."
On his phone, there was a scene of the enemy team heading for the dragon, showing the clear intention of taking this objective, then a glint of light flashed by as his fingers swiftly moved.
Three of his teammates were by his side, hiding in the bush as the last one was on the opposite side of the map, acting as a distraction to show that they are near the top side.
Then...
Bang!
They saw an opportunity and hurriedly chuck their skills and ultimate, catching the enemy off guard at the last second, instantly stealing the dragon and wiping the enemy team at the same time!
"Victory!" He laughed with a peace sign, causing Tulan to palm her face, unable to believe this is the same illusionary White Sword Archon of the Purple Swallow Sea.
"Is this really the famed sword immortal of the Purple Swallow Sea?"
