Chen Dong leaves
"Cursed Land?" Xia Fei muttered to himself, "I remember now. You're the prince of the Blood Candle Kingdom, and the Blood Candle Kingdom is a cursed land."
Constantine laughed heartily. "You rule the Land of Despair, and I may inherit the throne and rule the Cursed Land in the future. Together, this large area is known as the Land of the Dead. It's a terrifying movie."
Xia Fei silently nodded. The Blood Candle Kingdom that this prince with a rather low EQ would inherit was not far from the Terminus Star Region. It was a place where criminals were exiled in ancient times. The people there were tough, and many of the citizens were disabled, but their combat strength was extremely high. It was one of the few semi-savage regions in the Alliance.
"Come to think of it, I should have gone to Terminus to pay you a visit. Unfortunately, my wedding is just around the corner, and I can't leave," Constantine said apologetically.
Xia Fei replied, "There'll always be a chance in the future. Let me congratulate you first; I'll get someone to send you a big gift later."
Constantine said, "Why do I feel like you're not happy being the Lord of Terminus?"
Xia Fei smiled. "Recently, a friend has mysteriously left. Plus, things aren't going well, so I'm not in a good mood."
Constantine said, "If that's the case, why not come to Blood Candle to relieve your boredom? It's only four days from Friedel to Blood Candle, so it's very convenient."
After saying that, Constantine patted his head. "No, Friedel was what it was called in the past. Now it's called New Earth."
Xia Fei was just about to refuse when he suddenly realized how fervent Constantine's eyes were. It was as if he very much wanted Xia Fei to pay a visit to the Blood Candle Kingdom.
"It's been two years since we last contacted each other. Is there something else for you to suddenly call me?" Xia Fei asked with a smile.
Constantine stopped smiling and said solemnly, "To be honest, I really need your help right now."
"What do you mean?"
"My mother left after giving birth to me. Later, my father married my stepmother and gave birth to a boy and a girl, so I'm not the only heir of the empire. Now that my father is getting old, it's time to appoint a crown prince."
Xia Fei nodded. "That's why you and your half-brother both want to become the crown prince. Since your mother died young, you don't have an advantage in this fight for power."
Constantine said helplessly, "You're still as smart as ever. I left my father a bad impression when I left the Empire to participate in the Golden Finger Cup."
What do I get out of helping you? Xia Fei went straight to the point.
"Friendship, the friendship of the Blood Candle Kingdom." Constantine emphasized, "The Blood Candle Kingdom is only a small kingdom. It lives between the many warlords of the Death Tri-region and has a poor relationship with the powerful Alliance. Do you know why these people have never tried to attack Blood Candle?"
"Why?"
"That's because we have the strongest army of ability warriors. I'll boast shamelessly, but even though Blood Candle is littered with cripples, if it really comes to a fight, we have nothing to fear."
Constantine emphasized how powerful the Blood Candle army was, but this was not enough to move Xia Fei. He lit a cigarette and lightly said, "I became the master of the Terminus Star Region by relying on myself, without anyone's help. In the future, the defense of the Terminus Star Region won't rely on anyone else."
Constantine was somewhat disappointed. He lowered his head and pondered what else he could say.
Xia Fei changed the topic. "However, the two of us were fated to meet. It won't be difficult for me to go to Blood Candle and lend you a hand. As for whether you can ascend to the throne in the end, that'll be up to you."
Constantine was overjoyed. "Okay, it's a deal. If I can ascend to the throne, the Terminus Star Region will forever be Blood Candle's friend. Didn't you want to know where I learned my mechanical skills? You won't be disappointed when you come to Blood Candle. "
Turning off the screen, Phantom said, "It's a good deal. The Blood Candle Kingdom is an extremely unconventional existence in the Alliance. Forming a partnership with them is crucial to the safety of the Terminus Star Region. After all, you'll be leaving very soon. One more friend is better than one more enemy."
…
An exquisite meal was placed on the table. Xia Fei and Avril accompanied Uncle Porter for some wine, and the atmosphere was rather lively. Xia Fei was the classic example of a hands-off boss, only managing the decisions. The execution was left to Porter, Charlie, and the other friends who had accompanied Xia Fei on this journey, so Xia Fei had great respect for them.
He told Avril and Porter about Constantine's matter, and Porter agreed to go to the Blood Candle Kingdom. After all, Blood Candle was too close to Terminus, and a peaceful relationship between the two sides was a good thing for the people. The Earthlings who had migrated to Terminus had not yet stabilized, so it was not convenient for them to make enemies with anyone.
"Xia Fei, I believe that pushing Constantine to the throne is naturally a good thing, but do your best not to make enemies with his younger brother."
Xia Fei smiled. "I understand what you mean. I'll consider the public opinion and the current king's inclination."
Avril was clearly rather absent-minded, so Xia Fei did not mention it in front of Porter. Only when it was late at night and Porter had left did Xia Fei ask about it.
"Avril, what's wrong with you today?" Sitting on the bed, Xia Fei gently stroked Avril's golden hair.
Leaning against Xia Fei's chest like a little bird, Avril softly said, "While I was in the kitchen, Pang Xing called and said that grandpa hasn't been feeling well lately."
Xia Fei replied, "You've been with me in Terminus for several months now, and the data base that Starlink Corporation needs to set up in this region has basically been completed. Why don't you go home and see your family?"
Avril was somewhat reluctant to part with Xia Fei. She lowered her head and thought about it for some time before saying, "Okay, then I'll go back and take a look. I'll be back in two months."
In the dead of the night, Xia Fei could not fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. He went to his training room alone and took out two items from his spatial ring. One was the sleeping Lil Pea, and the other was the Blood Demon Claw, which had yet to bear fruit.
The Blood Demon Claw had been this deep red ever since Xia Fei obtained it, and even after three months of watering it with lake water that contained the Source of Life, it remained the same.
"How strange. At this stage, the Blood Demon Claw should have already blossomed and borne fruit, so why hasn't this one moved at all? Isn't it a little too patient?" Phantom helplessly said.
Xia Fei slowly watered the Blood Demon Claw with water from the center of the lake. The center of the lake was rich in energy, neither too much nor too little. He had been working this way for three months, not stopping once in the morning and twice in the morning.
Storing the Blood Demon Claw into a storage container, Xia Fei picked up Lil Pea and carefully checked every part of his body. Xia Fei would do the same thing every day or two, but unfortunately, Lil Pea showed no signs of waking up.
Letting out a long sigh, Xia Fei thought about the Law of Primal Chaos in his left arm and Peacock Blue in his right arm. Neither of them showed any signs of movement. It was like having a bunch of cash in his hand but not being able to spend it, making Xia Fei feel depressed.
"I should go out for a walk. Looks like a quiet life isn't suitable for me," Xia Fei muttered to himself as he looked up at the stars.
…
Besides Starlink Corporation's First Fleet, Sarah's transport fleet and Ling Xiao's Quantum Holdings' Third Fleet accompanied Avril back to the Alliance. It just so happened that they were also returning to the Alliance to carry out a transport mission.
The construction of the Terminus Star Region consumed large amounts of resources every day, and the local production was extremely lacking. Thus, Sarah's fleet was constantly shuttling between the Alliance and Terminus, making her even busier than Old Potter.
With such a powerful fleet protecting her, Xia Fei did not need to worry about Avril's safety. Besides, she had the Golden Jasper Spirit, and the Immortal-grade protective barrier was no joke. No one in the Alliance could harm Avril.
After sending off Avril, Xia Fei began to prepare for his trip to Blood Candle. Besides the usual gifts, Xia Fei had also brought plenty of water from the Southern Four Lakes. The clear water contained the energy of the Source of Life, and the plants planted on New Terra grew extremely quickly when watered with this water. Small saplings could grow to be five or six meters tall in just a few weeks, and the barren land would quickly grow green weeds after being watered by the water from the Southern Four Lakes. This water had the miraculous effect of changing the environment, and Potter called it magic water.
Of course, the Southern Four Lakes were surrounded by soldiers, and no one but Xia Fei could get close. It had to be understood that the Source of Life was still at the bottom of the lake. It would be terrible if someone stole it.
Xia Fei boarded Nirvana with Furball and took out the route map that Constantine had given him. After setting the coordinates, the AI computer controlled Nirvana to fly automatically.
The route to the Blood Candle Kingdom was very difficult. Without the route map, let alone four days, even forty days would be difficult to reach.
Suddenly, his communicator began to ring. He glanced at the number and saw that it was Chen Dong.
"I have something very important to tell you," Chen Dong said with a solemn and excited expression.
"What is it?" Xia Fei asked with a smile.
"I have to thank you!"
Xia Fei was speechless. He did not know why Chen Dong was thanking him for no reason, but from his serious expression, he did not seem to be joking.
"Thank me?"
"Yes! Thank you for teaching me the 'yes' theory back then. "
Xia Fei smiled. "Actually, I just saw that you've been cooped up in the cultivation chamber all day, and it's not good for your body to absorb too much energy from the Heart of Spirit, so I thought of a way to persuade you to go out and take a walk. It's just a small matter. You don't have to be so dramatic and call me to thank me."
Chen Dong waved his hand and said seriously, "I must thank you! But I'll be leaving soon. "
"Where are you going?" Xia Fei asked. ‘
"I can't say, but it's a great place," Chen Dong said excitedly.
Xia Fei smiled. "You're being so mysterious. Forget it. When you have time, come to Terminus Star Region, and I'll treat you to a feast."
Suddenly remembering his promise with Yujiang and Yuhua, Xia Fei added, "But you have to be quick."
Chen Dong frowned. "I might be gone for a long time."
"How long?"
"Very, very long."
Xia Fei was speechless. Chen Dongs was not a talkative person. All he had in his eyes was cultivation, constantly cultivating and advancing. Conversing with Xia Fei was already good enough. If it were anyone else, Chen Dongs would be a man of few words unless he was about to fight.
Turning off the screen, Xia Fei rubbed his chin and muttered to himself, "Strange. Where is Chen Dong going? He's making it sound so serious. "
"Isn't that so? He said so much to you just now, and it's probably the first time he's been so talkative in his life. Looks like this matter is really important to him," Phantom said.
Standing up, Xia Fei said, "Forget it. Everyone has their own path. I just hope that this guy doesn't jump headfirst into a pirate ship."
