Chapter 1060: Chapter 1060: Return to Fenglong City
“Okay,” Bai Xiuxiu said, “Do you plan to tell him now that you are also from the Dragon Clan?”
Lan Xuanyu shook his head, saying, “There’s no rush, we’ll take it one step at a time. Telling him too early increases the risk of exposure. Let’s first see what their attitude towards you is. From the last conversation with them, they seemed to value your strength more. If Huang Yuanlang harbors any improper thoughts, it’s not too late for me to reveal my identity then.”
“Okay.”
Lan Xuanyu turned to Liu Feng and said, “Madman, contact Liang Pu. Have him come to Fenglong City to see us. Tell him to open a shop in Fenglong City as soon as possible, specializing in the trade of minerals, preferably near the mineral trading center. Buy all kinds of minerals. Use the earnings from our last harvest as the startup capital. Then have Liang Pu arrange a legal identity for each of you. This will make it much easier for us to operate here in the long run.”
“Okay.”
Lan Xuanyu spoke to Qian Lei, “Fatty, you and Meng Qin go have a look around for a suitable residence, something quieter. It doesn’t need to be luxurious; inconspicuous and spacious enough for us to live in is fine.”
“No problem,” Qian Lei readily agreed.
“Huihui, Yu Ge, follow me and Xiuxiu. We’ll check out the residence arranged by Huang Yuanlang. The transformation left on you by Ah Bao can last three days. So in two days’ time, you’ll need to come back.” The Treasure Hunting Beast, after several attempts, had managed to use a near-solidifying method to keep transformations lasting longer. However, the prerequisite is avoiding combat; any strong energy fluctuation during battle causes the transformation to disappear quickly, revealing the true self.
Previously, the Void Bug he had simulated was discovered not long after they left because of the strong spatial fluctuations there.
While assigning tasks, they soon reached the vicinity of Fenglong City.
The seven of them split up and took individual actions.
This time was different from the last. When they arrived last time, they were clueless about the Sky Dragon Planet. This time, their primary goal was to establish a stronghold and secure a stable identity first.
Lan Xuanyu already had a preliminary plan; the Douluo Federation’s conquest of the Dragon Horse Galaxy was not something that could be achieved overnight.
Sky Dragon Planet, so vast and rich in resources, offered too much they could acquire. Moreover, as one of the capital stars of the Dragon Horse Star System, almost all of the system’s resources were concentrated here.
To acquire these resources and continuously supply them to the federation, academy, and Tang Sect, a merchant’s identity was most suitable. This was why he had left Liang Pu, a real member of the Blue Sea Tribe whose background could withstand scrutiny, as a chess piece instead of disposing of him after use.
Liang Pu’s role would become even more significant if the business grew. It would not be easy to expose, and they would stay hidden behind the scenes.
Fenglong City was just a starting point. Once the people from the Thirty-Three Skywing came over, he planned to expand the business to every city. Having industries as a cover would allow them to do more and be less suspicious.
Bai Xiuxiu, following the coordinates provided by Huang Yuanlang, headed forward. The Sky Dragon Planet also had various forms of transportation, and flight was not prohibited. After all, many creatures from the Dragon Horse Star System could fly.
Of course, the Dragon Clan was the most frequent flyer in the sky. Although their overall population was not large, their massive size meant that the presence of even one flying dragon would attract everyone’s attention.
The widest central part of the streets was reserved exclusively for the Dragon Clan. Other species had to walk on the sides, making the streets look very clean.
Bai Xiuxiu, possessing the identity of the Dragon Clan, naturally walked unabashedly on this central avenue. Lan Xuanyu, Bai Xiuxiu, and Yuanen Huihui followed her.
Soon, a vehicle that somewhat resembled a soul car but was much larger approached them.
“Lord Xiu, we have come to pick you up on the orders of the Young City Lord,” said the person who alighted from the vehicle, Ilay Shellon, whom they had met before.
“Hmm.” Bai Xiuxiu was the first to step onto this mechanical stepping vehicle, and said indifferently, “This thing looks like a giant shell; it’s quite ugly.”
Ilay Shellon respectfully responded, “Yes, we will improve it in the future. This is an exclusive Dragon Car, intended only for the elders of the Dragon Clan. Mainly, we considered the issue with the internal space.”
This Dragon Car was about twenty meters tall and nearly thirty meters in diameter, round in shape, almost like a small mountain. Indeed, it was something that even giant dragons could ride in. However, generally speaking, giant dragonshes were reluctant to use such things due to their massive size, as sitting inside felt suffocating; they preferred to travel using their own wings.
The interior of the car was extremely luxurious, with patterns on the walls inlaid with precious gemstones. At the back, there was a row of sofas, and the floor was covered with a thick carpet, made out of an unknown soft and comfortable fur.
The entire inside was very spacious, obviously designed to accommodate the huge bodies of the Dragon Clan.
Bai Xiuxiu made herself comfortable by taking a seat on the sofa at the very back, while Lan Xuanyu and the other two stood beside her.
Ilay Shellon also stood respectfully to the side, and the interior of the vehicle abruptly fell silent.
Bai Xiuxiu asked Ilay Shellon, “I heard there was an incident at Sky Dragon City? What happened afterward?”
Ilay Shellon replied, “It seems to be related to the Sky Domination Clan. The specifics are not very clear. You might ask the Young City Lord.”
Despite the Dragon Car’s massive size, its speed was not slow. After all, only members of the Dragon Clan could traverse the Dragon Path, and since there weren’t many in the Dragon Clan, traffic jams were naturally non-existent.
In no time, the enormous Dragon Car came to a halt, and the massive side door slowly opened. Before Bai Xiuxiu could step out, she already heard the voice of Huang Yuanlang from outside.
“Welcome back, beloved sister.” As he spoke, he came up from below, opening his arms and advancing toward Bai Xiuxiu.
Bai Xiuxiu frowned slightly, “What are you doing?”
Huang Yuanlang laughed and explained, “This is a human custom, called a hug.”
Bai Xiuxiu immediately showed a look of disgust, “What hug, don’t come near me, I don’t like this ceremony. We are the noble Dragon Clan, why do you always imitate humans?”
Huang Yuanlang had to drop his arms, a flash of displeasure appearing in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure. “Humans are a very unique life form. Their bodies are the most balanced among all races, especially suited for cultivation. It’s said that in the past when the Divine Realm existed, all gods also had the appearance of humans. Beloved sister, let’s get off the vehicle. I will show you around your residence.”
After disembarking from the Dragon Car, Bai Xiuxiu and her companions were somewhat astonished by the structure in front of them.
This was no mere residence; it was practically a castle.
To either side were walls measuring over eight meters high, and in front was a massive metal gate extending more than thirty meters wide, composed of metal branches and adorned with exquisite patterns.
At the moment, the gate was already open, with ten members of the Blue Sea Tribe on each side, dressed in servants’ outfits.
Continuing forward, first, there was a broad avenue leading to a huge fountain ahead; the road curved around from both sides and extended inside, up to the front of a castle-like structure.
This was a vast structure composed of several domed buildings joined together, covering at least four to five thousand square meters. The tallest point exceeded forty meters.
The dome in the center was particularly odd, built entirely of silver-white metal, yet with a slit in the middle.
Huang Yuanlang smiled, “Beloved sister, what do you think? Are you satisfied? I had the gardens on either side specially redone. This house was originally a coming-of-age present from father.
Look at the central main building, the top can be opened. If we were to fly back in dragon form, we could directly land inside, without having to walk in. Father told me when he gave me this house that one day, if I could become a Dragon Knight, I could fly back to my residence with my Mount Dragon. Every Dragon Knight’s residence is designed like this.”
