Old Tong chuckled. "Compared to ordinary people, the Cultivators of the Cross Wind Space Zone are more interested in the rise of the Glorious Sunlight Group!
"The Cross Wind Space Zone is not a place with abundant spiritual energy in the first place. The few Cultivation sects here are all mediocre sects in the world of Cultivators. If the local Cultivators want to distinguish themselves and make further progress, they have to travel and train themselves in the outside world.
"But now, with the arrival of the Glorious Sunlight Group, the resources from Iron Plateau have to be transferred to the Cross Wind Space Zone first. Think about it. Who will be the first to make use of the resources? The Cultivators of the Cross Wind Space Zone, of course!
"Besides, the communication between Iron Plateau and space is getting closer and closer. The trade volume is getting higher and higher. Such a huge pie is not something that the Glorious Sunlight Group alone can swallow!
"The Wu family and the Sha family of the Glorious Sunlight Group were local families in the Cross Wind Space Zone in the first place. Later, they cooperated with the White Dragon Union, one of the top three organizations in the Cross Wind Space Zone. Other Cultivation sects large and small have received a lot of orders from the Glorious Sunlight Group or the distribution rights of certain resources, too.
"As a result, many Cultivation sects have expanded rapidly and entered the top five hundred sects of the Flying Star Sector after only half a year!
"Why wouldn't the Cultivation sects like the Glory Sunlight Group when all the benefits were in their pockets? To be honest, other space zones can't even beg the Glorious Sunlight Group to go to them! This is a kind of investment, too!
"More importantly, now that the Temple of Immortals is on a rampage, the space pirates are much more active than before. Many remote space zones have been plagued by wars over the past year.
"But quite a few Exo Societies are stationed in the Cross Wind Space Zone all year round. Also, I'm told that a lot of Iron Plateau natives will come to the Cross Wind Space Zone for training soon.
"With so many experts gathered here, the Cross Wind Space Zone is naturally much safer. The space pirates dare not cause trouble. The ordinary people can live and work in peace. The Cultivators can develop steadily, too. This is a benefit that cannot be bought with any amount of money.
"Therefore, Little Sha, don't worry. You can rest assured and stay in the Cross Wind Star Region to develop yourself. You will definitely have a bright future. "
"Chances are that we will be even more prosperous than Heavenly Saints City one day!"
After staying in the Flying Star Sector for such a long time, Li Yao had gradually grasped the social form of the Flying Star Sector.
The biggest difference between the Flying Star Sector and the Tian Yuan Realm was that there was no unified government.
After the apocalypse arrived, Iron Plateau was indeed a wasteland. The space fleets that were charging at the space fleet had been burnt to the ground. They were also completely shattered by the cosmic storms and lost in various space zones.
For two to three thousand years, they had been struggling on their own. Naturally, they no longer had the concept of a unified government or country.
Two to three thousand years later, the explosive development of the Spiritual Nexus technology and the space jump technology reconnected the entire Flying Star Sector. However, most of the sects in the space zones had already established their own independent kingdoms. Although the six major sects were still as powerful as before, they had been separated by dozens of generations. It was no longer as glorious as it was thousands of years ago.
Heavenly Saints City today was the most prosperous and magnificent city in the Flying Star Sector. The most advanced starry sky city was not the "capital".
From a legal point of view, Heavenly Saints City was equal to even a desolate town of remnants. They did not have the right to order it around.
To put it more generally, the six sects of Heavenly Saints City were somewhat like 'leaders of the martial arts world' in the Flying Star Sector. Nominally, they were the leaders, but when their own interests were involved, they had to obey. They did not have to obey their big brother every time.
Before, the six sects of Heavenly Saints City were the strongest. They had the most techniques and the most experts. Therefore, the sects large and small in the various space zones of the Flying Star Sector were willing to invest in the six sects of Heavenly Saints City and send their disciples and disciples to study in Heavenly Saints City. Some of them even invested in the research and development of techniques and magical equipment together with the six sects of Heavenly Saints City.
In such a way, Heavenly Saints City maintained its subtle rule over the Flying Star Sector.
However, the rise of the Temple of Immortals disrupted the delicate balance. When the space pirates attacked, the six sects of Heavenly Saints City failed to take action in time to provide them with the protection that they deserved. The residents there were greatly disappointed.
Many sects in the remote space zones had withdrawn their investments in Heavenly Saints City. It remained to be seen whether they would build a fortress to protect themselves, invest in the new forces such as the Cross Wind Space Zone, or even make peace with the space pirates.
In such a chaotic situation, it was naturally a good thing that more experts were stationed in the Cross Wind Space Zone.
The two of them talked happily. Before they knew it, the humpback whale-level carrier docked in a world fragment named 'Floating Orchid Domain'.
The place used to be the headquarters of the Wu family, but it was now the headquarters of the Glorious Sunlight Group. It was gradually becoming the center of the Cross Wind Space Zone, too.
In front of the passengers was a large spaceport that was still expanding, well-equipped, luxurious, and still in the process of expansion.
The magnificent buildings that looked like palaces were as magnificent as the spaceports in Heavenly Saints City. They showed the unstoppable fortune of the Cross Wind Space Zone, which was like the rising sun.
The floating teleportation discs, which were in the shape of flowing clouds, spread out in all directions and steadily sent the passengers to the port of departure.
"Brother Tong, goodbye. Give me your contact details."
Li Yao smiled. He felt that Old Tong was quite an interesting guy.
A few prolonged shrieks suddenly echoed in the sky. Although they were high-pitched, they were not ear-piercing and sounded like the shrieks of cranes.
Six luxurious shuttles that were silver in color and elegant in design, as if they were made of silver feathers, descended from the sky and landed steadily in front of the three of them.
The doors of the shuttles opened like the wings of a seagull. More than ten tough-looking men wearing the same uniform jumped out and lined up in front of the three of them.
"Chairman!"
These men with astonishing auras bowed slightly and shouted in unison.
Li Yao blinked, somewhat surprised.
Old Tong burst into laughter, his face red. He patted Li Yao's shoulder hard and said, "Little Sand, I'm sorry. I only told you that I was a businessman, but I didn't tell you about my business. The 'Silver Ocean Trading Company' that I run is doing well right now. It ranks third among all the companies in the Cross Wind Space Zone!
"I didn't mean to lie to you, but I like to keep a low profile. I'm not going to Heavenly Saints City for business. So, I'm dressed casually!
"Look, you mentioned the Glorious Sunlight Group just now. I'm the best example! More than half a year ago … My company was half-dead. I was betrayed by a good brother in the past. I owed a lot of debt and was in a desperate situation!
"When the Glorious Sunlight Group was first established, many people were still suspicious. Since I was doomed, I decided to take a gamble!
"I was one of the earliest companies that cooperated with the Glorious Sunlight Group. But after only half a year, I was revived. My company is developing rapidly!
"Come on, Little Sand. Take this!"
Old Tong took out a delicate business card box from his pocket and opened it softly.
But he did not take out the common business card on the box. Instead, he drew a glittering business card from the bottom of the box.
The moment the business card was in Li Yao's hand, a streak of brilliance flashed on the surface of the card, and two glamorous words popped up: Silver Ocean!
It was not until then that Li Yao learned that Old Tong's real name was Tong Dashu.
Tong Dashu burst into laughter. "Little Sand, after talking for such a long time, I feel that you have a clear mind. You are a quick-witted young man.
"Besides, you gave my daughter a present. I can't let her take it for free!
"I, Tong Dashu, am in the Cross Wind Space Zone. Although I'm not a big shot, I know a few people more or less. I can even talk to the leadership of a few subsidiaries of the Glorious Sunlight Group.
"You're new here, and you're not familiar with the place. Why don't I introduce you to someone?
"Alright. Let's talk later. Come on. Get in the car. Where are you going? I'll give you a ride! "
This time, Li Yao was truly embarrassed. He put the business card away solemnly. He quickly waved his hands and said, "That's unnecessary. Thank you, Brother Tong. My friend is here to pick me up, too. Look. He's here."
A very common household shuttle, commonly known as a 'grocery shuttle', slowly stopped next to Li Yao.
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man got out of the car. In front of Li Yao, he appeared to be somewhat cautious, if not nervous, and did not even dare to breathe loudly. He helped Li Yao move the two suitcases into the trunk.
Tong Dashu scratched his head. For some reason, he felt that the middle-aged man looked familiar.
Li Yao smiled. "Brother Tong, goodbye. I'll definitely come to you if I need your help. I wish you a prosperous business."
Crawling into the backseat, Li Yao waved at the little girl from the window. "Little Dandan, goodbye. Don't forget to put the deer under your pillow when you go to bed at night. The deer will play with you in your dreams."
The grocery cart slowly passed by the six luxurious shuttles and flew into the sky, wobbling.
"The young man is quite interesting."
Tong Dashu scratched his unshaven chin. Holding his daughter's hand, he sat in the backseat of a luxury shuttle, too.
Tong Dashu sank into the leather seat and took a rest with his eyes closed.
For some reason, he felt that his heart was palpitating, as if he had overlooked something extremely weird.
"The driver looks familiar. I feel that I've seen him somewhere before."
"Wait."
Tong Dashu's eyes bulged even larger than bells. He jumped up from the seat and hit his head on the wall of the shuttle heavily. After a loud boom, the luxury shuttle was shaking!
"Dad!"
His daughter Dandan was dumbfounded.
"Chairman?"
The driver and the bodyguards in the front seat all turned around and looked at their boss in surprise.
Their boss's face was pale, and he was sweating hard. He was cramping nonstop as if he were having a seizure.
"No. It's impossible. My eyes must be deceiving me!"
Tong Dashu turned on his crystal processor with his hands shivering. A financial magazine that was published last month popped up on the light beam.
The background of the cover was a map of the entire Cross Wind Space Zone, which was a glittering sea of stars.
A middle-aged man with an extremely domineering aura spread open his arms and enveloped the entire planet within his palms!
The middle-aged man's eyes were as sharp as those of an eagle's. Although it was just a cover, Tong Dashu still felt tremendous pressure.
The following words were:
"Dominating Cross Wind!"
"Wu Zhengyang, leader of the Wu family and CEO of the Glorious Sunlight Group, ranks first in the list of the most influential figures in the business world of the Cross Wind Space Zone this year!"
This extremely domineering Wu Zhengyang, who controlled Constellation in his hands, looked exactly the same as the chauffeur who had driven the grocery cart to pick up Xiao Sha, respectfully opened the door for him, and fearfully carried the luggage.
Tong Dashu gasped and collapsed on the leather seat. He felt that ten thousand needles were stabbing his bottom.
"Who — who is this young man exactly?"
