Spirit Galaxy, Outer Star River.
It was still a nameless star shrouded in complete darkness. Space fluctuated, and two figures walked out one after another.
It was none other than Lu An and Fu Fan.
After arriving, Lu An discovered that there was no one here. There was not even an aura. But very quickly, they did not have to wait for long. Space rippled and a teleportation array appeared. Then, a figure walked out.
Death aura.
Lu An looked at the person who walked out of the teleportation array. Without a doubt, he was from the Spirit Race.
If it was on the battlefield, Lu An and the other party would be enemies of life and death. But meeting here was completely different. Moreover, the other party was a traitor of the Spirit Race. He was on his side.
"Brother Fan." The person cupped his fists.
"Brother Mu." Fu Fan cupped his fists too and said to the two, "Let me introduce you. This is Chu Xing and this is Jiang Mu."
Jiang Mu did not have any information on Chu Xing. He only knew that the person in front of him was called Chu Xing. He only knew what Fu Fan wanted him to do. Intelligence agents and spies were like that. They only knew what they should know.
This was the first time Jiang Mu saw someone who had betrayed the Spirit Race like him. He knew that there were many people like him, but not many. To be able to see someone who had betrayed the Spirit Race like him, this feeling was indescribable.
"Brother Chu." Jiang Mu cupped his fists and said.
"Brother Jiang." Lu An returned the greeting. But his tone was very cold. He gave people a feeling that he did not like to talk.
"I still have things to do." Fu Fan looked at the two and said, "Both of you know your mission. I do not need to say more. Thank you."
With that, Fu Fan changed the space around him again and disappeared.
Immediately, only Jiang Mu and Lu An were left on the huge star. After Fu Fan left, Jiang Mu's gaze became more direct. He sized up Lu An.
Seeing that the other party was sizing him up, Lu An couldn't help but feel nervous. But Lu An's willpower was very strong. Regardless of his appearance or aura, there were no flaws. He frowned and asked, "Why are you not leaving?"
Jiang Mu was startled. He then took a deep breath and said, "You definitely know about my mission. You and I are both from the Spirit Race, so there are some things that I have to say first."
Lu An frowned and said, "Go ahead."
"The mission he gave me was to help you enter the Chamber of Commerce." Jiang Mu said, "I'm just a deputy manager in the Chamber of Commerce, so my authority is limited. However, helping you join the Chamber of Commerce is not a problem. From today onwards, you and I are friends. I can introduce you to many people. As for what you want to do, I don't know, nor do I want to know. "
"But … let's talk bad first. If something happens to you, don't rat me out." Jiang Mu said, "It wasn't easy for me to become the Deputy Director, and I'm a very important person to the Fu Clan. As long as you keep your mouth shut, I'll be able to escape unscathed even if you're exposed. "
After hearing the other party's words, Lu An's face turned cold. After two breaths, he said coldly, "I will not betray my own people."
Hearing this, Jiang Mu revealed a relieved smile and said, "Alright, in that case, let's set off."
With that, Jiang Mu immediately activated the teleportation array. He did not have the ability to teleport, so he could only use the teleportation array.
Lu An was the first to enter, and Jiang Mu followed behind, disappearing into the outer Astral River.

Heavenly Astral River, the inner Astral River.
The inner Astral River took up almost a third of the entire Astral River, and there were countless stars. One had to know that in the Heavenly Astral River, the number of stars with life was far less than a third of the total number of stars. Therefore, in a situation where the number of life forms was much lower than in the Heavenly Astral River, the number of stars in the inner Astral River was enough for the Spirit Race and Vicious Beasts to live in. There were even many empty stars. It was just that the empty stars were relatively weaker and had a lower value.
At this moment, on an empty star, a teleportation array suddenly opened, and two figures walked out.
It was Lu An and Jiang Mu.
They appeared on the surface of the ground. Lu An looked around and found that this place was barren, and there was nothing. There was no one, let alone a Chamber of Commerce.
However, Lu An was not surprised. He already knew how to gather information and waited quietly. As expected, Jiang Mu opened another teleportation array. The layout of the two teleportation arrays was different, which meant that they could not communicate with each other.
People with powerful spatial abilities could forcefully open other people's teleportation arrays and use spatial perception to sense the location of all the teleportation arrays. Once someone discovered that there was a teleportation array in the outer Astral River, Jiang Mu would most likely be exposed.
Jiang Mu directly destroyed the space and destroyed the teleportation array that had just arrived. Then, he pointed to the other teleportation array and said, "Let's go."
Lu An did not say a word and walked straight in. After Lu An disappeared, Jiang Mu immediately entered and closed the teleportation array.

The inner Astral River, on a star.
Different from the two stars that Lu An had just arrived at, when Lu An appeared from the teleportation array, he immediately heard a lot of noise!
The teleportation array's location was in a room in a pavilion. Beside it was a window. Lu An walked to the window and looked out.
It was a huge long street.
The street was at least ten feet wide, and the pavilions on both sides had four floors at most. Most of them had two floors. The street was bustling with people and carriages. Seeing this scene, Lu An's heart sank.
Without a doubt, they were all from the Spirit Race.
This was the first time Lu An had seen so many people from the Spirit Race. There were at least a few thousand of them on this long street. Of course, their strength varied, and most of them were very weak. Even so, it was enough to make him feel apprehensive.
The Spirit Race was indeed much more numerous than the four main races of the past. They were also much more numerous than the Hachiko clan. Although the Spirit Race's population could not be compared to the human population of the entire Astral River, their total population could probably be compared to the human population on the Immortal Planet. The exact number of Spirit Race people in the Astral River was not known, but it was definitely thousands, tens of thousands of times more than the human population on the Immortal Planet. It might even be more.
Lu An knew that because of the countless stars in the inner Astral River and the limited number of people from the Spirit Race, most of the Spirit Race people were gathered in the cities of the larger stars. There were very few people outside the cities. This was similar to the Black Tomb Star that Lu An had visited in the past. Life was mainly in the cities, and there were no villages or villages. There were many cities on a star, but it did not exclude the possibility of people living alone in the countryside. After all, it was very safe in the countryside.
Most of the stars that the Spirit Race people lived on did not have ferocious beasts. Or rather, they only had ferocious beasts in captivity. There were no ferocious beasts in the wild. Even if there were ferocious beasts, they would not dare to attack the Spirit Race people. Otherwise, they would definitely die.
Lu An had just walked to the window when Jiang Mu appeared in the room one after another. Jiang Mu looked at the Spirit Race person in front of him. He did not know anything about this Spirit Race person's background. However, from this person's cold and vicious personality, he had probably experienced a lot to become like this.
"This is one of my assets." Jiang Mu said to Lu An. "From today onwards, I will hand it over to you. You will live here. This way, we can keep in contact."
When Lu An heard this, he turned to look at Jiang Mu and said, "I don't live here."
Jiang Mu was startled. He asked, "Then where do you live?"
"I don't like crowded places." Lu An said. "I have my own place."
"…"
Seeing that the other party did not appreciate the place he had prepared for him, Jiang Mu did not say anything more. He shrugged and said, "Do as you wish."
"When are we going to the merchant association?" Lu An asked.
"We have to make some preparations to set the stage." Jiang Mu walked to the window and pointed into the distance. "Do you see that? At the end of the long street, there is a four story pavilion. I will go first. You can go 15 minutes later. Just say that you have a second grade mission. Someone will bring you to see me. The difficulty of a second grade mission is not low. When the time comes, I will be able to pull you into the merchant association. You will become a long-term seller for the merchant association. Understand? "
When Lu An heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "En."
"Then I will go first." Jiang Mu said. "Don't forget, 15 minutes later."
