The Fiery Spirit civilization's Eternal Star realm cultivator was also a mid-stage Eternal Star realm cultivator. He was the strongest of the eight Eternal Star realm cultivators protecting Wang Baole. He stood beside Wang Baole with the others and glared coldly at the Xie Family's elderly Dao Protector.
The more he looked at him, the more he disliked him.
His appearance also caused the Xie Family's elderly Dao Protector to narrow his eyes slightly. The other Eternal Star realm Dao Protectors around him also changed their expressions. They all stepped forward and stared at Fiery Spirit Laozu and the other Eternal Stars around him as if they were facing a great enemy.
After scanning them one by one, their eyes all turned solemn.
"The Raging Inferno Galaxy is so generous … to actually use Eternal Stars as Dao Protectors! Don't you have any resentment? "the black-robed elder said slowly.
"Resentment? It's a great honor for us to be Young Master's Dao Protectors. On one hand, we can protect the Young Master, and on the other, we can repay the Exalted Venerate's kindness. How can ecliptic and mortal Eternal Stars like you understand? "Fiery Spirit Laozu laughed. The other Eternal Stars beside him also laughed.
This scene immediately made the Dao Protectors of the Xie Family grimace. As Eternal Star realm cultivators, they naturally knew that Eternal Stars were divided into five levels. Similar to the Planets, Immortal, Spirit, and Mortal realms, Eternal Stars were divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow, and Mortal realms.
There was a huge difference in strength between different levels and within the same realm of cultivation.
Generally speaking, although only those who were trusted could assume the role of Dao Protector, to a certain extent, they were also bodyguards. Eternal Star realm cultivators had their own pride. Even major families and factions couldn't easily humiliate them. They had to be treated courteously if they were Dao Protectors of the younger generation.
Even so, most cultivators above the Profound Dao Realm wouldn't choose to become Dao Protectors. Even the ecliptic Eternal Stars of a lower level rarely had Dao Protectors. Most of them were mortal Eternal Stars. Their talents and opportunities had reached the peak, making it difficult for them to advance. That was why they chose to become Dao Protectors, using their loyalty and contributions to exchange for opportunities from the Exalted Venerate.
For example, aside from the black-robed elder who was an ecliptic Eternal Star, the rest of Xie Yunteng's Dao Protectors were all mortal Eternal Stars. On the other hand, aside from the Searing Spirit Laozu, everyone else on Wang Baole's side was an ecliptic Eternal Star. As for the Searing Spirit Laozu himself, he was at an even higher level — a Profound Eternal Star!
Hence, the instant they appeared, the black-robed old man's expression changed. He was secretly shocked, and he remembered the rumors about Laozu in the outside world, about how he was protective of his own people.
Thus, with a gloomy expression, the black-robed old man waved his sleeve and shouted.
"Go!"
With that, Wang Baole began to back up. Xie Yunteng's expression was strange, as if he were in a bit of a trance. He allowed his Dao Protector to pull him along, and just when he was about to leave, Wang Baole's eyes narrowed.
"Where's the explanation?"
As soon as he spoke, the Searing Spirit Laozu seemed to have found his backbone. He laughed loudly, and his cultivation base instantly erupted. Together with the other Eternal Star Dao Protectors of the Blaze Galaxy, they spread out and blocked Xie Yunteng's path.
"This is the Xie Family's Interstellar Market!" the black-robed old man growled when he saw this.
"So what? We're from the Blaze Galaxy! " The Searing Spirit Laozu's arrogant voice answered him. His confident tone caused the black-robed old man to pause.
"You …"
All the onlookers in the area had different expressions on their faces as they watched the situation develop.
A cold light flashed in the Searing Spirit Laozu's eyes as he said slowly, "What are you talking about? Why are you participating in a fight between Young Masters? You even tried to break my Young Master's divine ability with malicious intent. This is a great disrespect to the Exalted Inferno. If you don't explain yourself today, I'll have no choice but to capture all of you and send you to the Blaze Galaxy as an apology!"
His domineering attitude caused the black-robed old man's breathing to quicken. However, when he thought of Xie Yunteng's strength and background, he had no choice but to endure. He turned to look at his Young Master and saw that Xie Yunteng was still in a daze. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"What kind of explanation do you want?"
Wang Baole's eyes narrowed as he sent a message to Laozu. Laozu's eyebrows arched, and he laughed. Then he looked at the black-robed old man and said, "The Young Master is benevolent.
"Young Master is benevolent. You can just pay the bill that you've been thanking Young Master for."
Xie Yunteng blinked, then quickly produced a jade slip. After making a few more inscriptions, he tossed it out. The jade slip transformed into a beam of light that the black-robed old man caught. He scanned it with his divine sense, and his face fell.
"One hundred Spirit Stars? That's impossible. This airship doesn't have one hundred Spirit Stars. You … "
"Fine, but I have a question that needs an answer!" Before the black-robed old man could finish speaking, Xie Yunteng finally recovered from his daze and spoke with a gloomy expression. He didn't look at the jade slip in the black-robed old man's hand. Instead, he looked at Wang Baole.
"What you used just now was the Law of Silk?"
"Take a guess." Wang Baole smiled slightly. He didn't admit or deny it. The secret of his Dao Star nomological laws couldn't be kept a secret for too long. After all, he had used the Law of Paper in the battle with the Violet Gold civilization in the Divine Eye civilization. If someone investigated it, they would know the key.
If he hadn't used the Law of Silk just now and caused the Divine Bull to disperse into threads, he would have suffered great losses. Therefore, the moment Wang Baole made his move, he didn't care whether or not he would be exposed.
Therefore, when Xie Yunteng heard his answer, he already had an answer. A hint of fear appeared in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he stared deeply at Wang Baole before turning around and leaving with his people.
As for Xie Haiyang, there wasn't much change in his expression. That was because he had been shocked when Wang Baole had unleashed the Dharmic Laws. The waves of emotions that had surged in his heart had been forcibly suppressed by him. However, now that he had an answer in his heart, he felt that his choice to join the Inferno Star System and to build a closer relationship with Wang Baole had been the right choice.
"Replication nomological laws … Such a heaven-defying nomological law … Wang Baole doesn't even need to reach the Celestial Domain Grade. As long as he reaches the Star-Grade, it will be very difficult to stop his rise!"
"He has the protection of the Raging Flame Laozu and is on good terms with Chen Qing. Even the Never-Ending Clan would have to think twice before attacking him!" At this thought, Xie Haiyang took a deep breath and quickly got up from the balcony. He bowed respectfully before Wang Baole.
"Thank you, 16th Uncle!"
"Since we are from the same sect, there is no need for such formalities." Wang Baole was in a good mood. After this battle, he had roughly judged his own combat strength. At the same time, he had also replicated a very special Law. He felt very refreshed and thus smiled as he spoke.
The other members of the Xie Family reacted quickly. Not long after Xie Yunteng left, a few of the Xie Family's Star-Grade cultivators, including Yao Lao, came to visit personally.
He was very courteous to Xie Haiyang. At the same time, he informed Xie Haiyang that the family clan had already clarified their misunderstanding of him and had imprinted his name on the clan artifact once again. The protection of his bloodline had also been restored.
This scene made Xie Haiyang sigh inwardly, but he was not at all surprised. The battle between Wang Baole and Xie Yunteng had already shown enough value to the Xie Family. Based on his understanding of the family, the family had always paid attention to and invested in such prodigies.
His relationship with Wang Baole meant that this time, his status would also rise. He would be the link between the family and Wang Baole. This would also be of great benefit to him. It might even affect his position and position in the family's direct line of descent.
These events made Xie Haiyang even more determined to tie himself to Wang Baole. This series of events had already made him and Wang Baole bound together for good or ill.
Although this did not conform to the concept of investment, Xie Haiyang could not care less at this moment.
"I wonder if his previous attack was intentional, or … was it purely an accident?" Xie Haiyang lowered his head and quickly glanced at Wang Baole, who was talking and laughing with the elders of the Xie Family on the flying ship. An unfathomable feeling rose in his heart.
Wang Baole noticed Xie Haiyang's gaze. His expression was normal as he chatted and laughed with the elders of the Xie Family. However, there was an additional depth in his eyes that outsiders could not see …
After a while, the people of the Xie Family bid farewell and left. Before they left, they told Wang Baole that Xie Yunteng had paid for all the bills that Xie Haiyang had signed, including the one hundred Spirit Stars!
However, the value of Spirit Stars was too high, and there were many of them. The flying ship did not have that many in stock, but they had already arranged for them to be sent to him as soon as possible.
Wang Baole was very satisfied with this. He gave Xie Haiyang a look of praise. Xie Haiyang quickly suppressed the guesses in his heart and chuckled. This was not the first time he had worked together with Wang Baole. When Searing Spirit Laozu spoke, he immediately knew what he should do.
At the same time, he knew very well that guesses were no longer important. It did not matter what the truth was. Because if Wang Baole did not do it intentionally, then it meant that his luck was heaven-defying. If it was intentional, then it meant that his cunning had reached a terrifying level. Either one of these points was enough to convince him.
