Chapter 2385 Condensing the Buddha Tower Again! Coming Out of Seclusion! The Five Major Families' Speculation! (3)
"It's time to go out. I wonder how the Five Burial Stars is doing." w.a.n.g Teng took a pill and his face turned red. He stood up and asked, "Round Ball, how many days have I been in seclusion?"
"13 days!" Round Ball replied.
It had been 13 days since w.a.n.g Teng entered seclusion. During this time, Round Ball remained silent, afraid of disturbing w.a.n.g Teng's recovery and healing process.
"13 days already!" w.a.n.g Teng was a bit surprised. This seclusion period was longer than usual for him. He rarely secluded himself for such a long time.
"Look at how serious your injuries were this time. I almost thought you were going to die," Round Ball said, somewhat annoyed.
"Calm down! Calm down! Haven't you heard the saying? Good people die young, troublemakers last a thousand years. Someone like me is destined to live longer than anyone else." w.a.n.g Teng chuckled.
Round Ball:
What do you mean by that?
It didn't know whether to admire w.a.n.g Teng's thick skin or his self-awareness, acknowledging that he was a troublemaker.
"You should take it easy in the future. When you encounter that kind of eternal-stage existence, don't be so stubborn. If it's time to back down, just back down. There's no shame in that."
Round Ball sighed, unable to hold back.
"When it's time to back down, I'll naturally back down. After all, I'm so afraid of death. But this time, surrendering wouldn't have solved the problem. The other party wanted to kill me from the start. Even if I surrendered, it wouldn't have mattered," w.a.n.g Teng said solemnly, shaking his head.
"The Heishan Royal Clan is considered one of the top races in the universe. I never expected them to be so shameless," Round Ball also acknowledged this fact, feeling angry. "They're so petty. I might as well curse their descendants to have no a.s.sholes."
"Pfft!" w.a.n.g Teng almost burst out laughing.
Cursing their descendants to have no a.s.sholes was truly a harsh curse. It was remarkable that Round Ball could even come up with such a thing.
"Don't worry, I'll settle this score with them sooner or later," w.a.n.g Teng declared.
Upon hearing this, Round Ball hesitated for a moment. It had wanted to say that they couldn't afford to provoke the Heishan Royal Clan, but seeing w.a.n.g Teng's determined expression, it realized that persuasion was futile and decided not to say more.
Besides, it was genuinely infuriating. The other party had gone too far, even beyond Round Ball's tolerance.
In fact, given w.a.n.g Teng's extraordinary prowess, he could confront the Heishan Royal Clan head-on in the future.
"Oh, by the way, something bizarre happened during your seclusion."
Round Ball suddenly remembered and hurriedly spoke up.
"What happened?" w.a.n.g Teng's expression returned to normal, curiosity piqued.
"A fleet of the Black Skull Universe Pirates was destroyed. Someone found their s.h.i.+p's wreckage in s.p.a.ce. Based on the distance, I suspect it's the fleet that left from Five Burial Starsr," Round Ball explained.
"What?!" w.a.n.g Teng couldn't help but be surprised, finding it hard to believe. "Is it true?"
"Of course, it's true. Many people discovered the wreckage of that fleet, with the unique emblem of the Black Skull Universe Pirates. And well, you should see for yourself. After watching, you'll know if it's true or not," Round Ball said, shaking its head, then waved its small hand.
A holographic projection appeared, showing a vivid depiction of the starry sky right in front of w.a.n.g Teng.
"This scene" w.a.n.g Teng's pupils suddenly contracted.
As he observed, the scene before him was even more terrifying than the wreckage caused by Elder Hui's intervention on the Five Burial Stars.
What on earth had happened in that part of s.p.a.ce?
"Bizarre, isn't it?" Round Ball chuckled.
"Could this be the work of beings beyond the eternal stage?" w.a.n.g Teng was shaken, his voice tinged with suspicion.
"I think so," Round Ball nodded. "If it's true, then Elder Hui is probably in trouble."
"This" w.a.n.g Teng was somewhat stunned. "I don't think so. How can an eternal-stage ruler die so easily?"
"That's hard to say. The methods of true G.o.ds are beyond our imagination. Although eternal-stage beings are said to be immortal, if a true G.o.d personally intervenes, they can still be obliterated," Round Ball remarked.
"Oh my, if he's dead, how am I supposed to take revenge?!" w.a.n.g Teng exclaimed suddenly.
"Isn't it good to have one less eternal-stage ruler as your enemy?" Round Ball was speechless.
"What's good about it? When someone else takes action, it's never as satisfying as seeking revenge yourself." w.a.n.g Teng shook his head.
"Enough with the tough talk. If Elder Hui appears in front of you again, you'll run faster than anyone else," Round Ball remarked sarcastically.
w.a.n.g Teng:
Why are you exposing me?
Can't you just shut up?
"But who could it be?" Round Ball rubbed its chin, appearing quite curious.
w.a.n.g Teng also scratched his chin. The two of them looked at each other, unable to figure it out, their heads filled with question marks.
"Forget it, let's not dwell on it. Maybe it's someone else's enemy," Round Ball pondered for a while but couldn't think of anyone. It shook its head helplessly and added, "Also, there's another thing, hmm, it's good news. You're famous now!"
"I'm famous? What kind of fame?" w.a.n.g Teng was puzzled again.
"Now I reckon the entire Phantom Drift Territorial Domain knows your name. You could say you're famous now," Round Ball chuckled. "The Virtual Universe Corporation has spread your deeds on the Five Burial Stars. Many people know that you killed a universe-stage powerhouse, then took on an eternal-stage existence head-on, even forcing him to apologize and compensate."
"That's not a good thing at all!" w.a.n.g Teng's expression turned serious as he shook his head. "The more people know about my abilities, the more disadvantageous it is for me."
