Chapter 615: Searching for Tool Persons

As the time of the memorial service gradually approached, delegations from Major Civilizations also began to arrive.

About a year ago, the battle where The Council attacked Returning Star not only didn't cause Returning Star to fall into decline, but on the contrary, after Klein took power, the situation was stabilized in a short time.

Moreover, with Li Yu's help, both its internal stability and its reputation On the interstellar stage were increasing day by day.

During this year, many civilizations had established new alliances with Returning Star, and Returning Star's appeal On the interstellar stage was also growing day by day.

In the Palace, Klein sat astride Li Yu. Her fair thighs extended from her gold-embroidered gauze robe, dazzling to the eyes.

Her face carried an unnatural flush. Cupping Li Yu's face, her eyes were somewhat blurry.

Li Yu shook his head, somewhat unaccustomed to such a posture. Leaning back, he broke free from Klein's palms.

"Heh..." Klein sneered, got up from Li Yu, and stepped barefoot on the floor. Her Alluring posture was dizzying.

"Is Your Excellency Dragon Lord unwilling to give even this little favor now?"

"Then just now when I called it, why didn't you stop me, but instead used more force?" Klein sat on the Table, her tone playful.

Li Yu shook his head. This little girl, her personality was becoming increasingly terrible.

"There are only a few days left until the memorial day. If the Citizens knew their Empress was so unrestrained, their worldviews would shatter," Li Yu teased.

Klein raised her head, looking up at Li Yu: "The entire Returning Star is a plaything in your palm, let alone an Empress like me. If I don't serve you well, those Citizens probably won't have a good life either."

Although she said it like that, why did it sound a bit strange coming out of Klein's mouth?

Li Yu knew this woman was doing it deliberately and couldn't be bothered to continue flirting with her. After all, Sage Time could ignore any temptation.

He changed the subject and asked, "What exactly is Loyd here for? Is he really just here to attend the memorial ceremony?"

Loyd was the First Successor of the Empire of the Star Glory Empire. Now, there were less than ten days until the memorial ceremony.

The Star Glory Empire had announced this news externally not long ago, causing widespread discussion On the interstellar stage.

Many people thought this was a symbol of Returning Star's growing strength. Even the Star Glory Empire could no longer ignore Returning Star's influence.

Another group of people believed that the Star Glory Empire wanted to express their attitude towards Li Yu through this method, and Returning Star was just a medium.

Some even said that Loyd came to pursue Klein. After all, one was the First Successor of the Empire of the Star Glory Empire, and the other was the Empress of Returning Star. Their Identity and Status were quite matching.

"The official letter they gave us is no different from what they announced publicly. Whether they have other specific purposes, I don't know either," Klein shook her head, then her gaze landed on Li Yu, saying:

"Maybe he really did come to pursue me."

Li Yu: "..."

"Stop joking..." Li Yu shook his head: "The Star Glory Empire isn't a fool."

"By the way, where are Bolvar and those three Old geezers? They should have also come to attend the memorial ceremony, right."

Klein curled her lips and said, "You need something from those three Old geezers?"

"Sparring..." Li Yu said. To increase his Gene Chain Development Progress, he could only continuously battle.

Bolvar and those three Old geezers were clearly excellent sparring partners, and coincidentally, there was nothing urgent recently.

"A Friend of theirs came, on Satellite H-4, seems they are hosting him..." Klein flipped through the messages on her Smart Terminal and said:

"But I have to remind you, because of some things, those Old geezers find us quite unpleasing to the eye. I'm afraid sparring with them won't be that simple for you."

"I know..." Li Yu nodded and walked straight away, leaving only Klein with a resentful gaze.

.........

"Bolvar, long time no see, you're still so stingy." On Satellite H-4, in a certain luxurious residence, several Old geezers sat facing each other, various drinks placed before them.

Bolvar's face was pitch black. The guy opposite him was very special, a translucent blueish creature, chewing on a piece of black ore.

"Nikas, that f*cking is a Black Crystal mother-ore. I went through so much trouble to find one piece, and you just swallowed it in one bite?" Bolvar shouted angrily.

The other party was a peculiar race that fed on metals and particularly loved various rare minerals.

Before the other party came, he had already put away the relatively precious things in his residence, but he didn't expect he still missed this thing.

"Just one piece of mother-ore, the dignified Bolvar, the Guardian god of Returning Star, lacks such a small thing?" Nikas didn't care at all. They were Friends of many years, and this level of banter wasn't worth getting angry over.

"Sigh..." Bolvar sighed but didn't speak.

Instead, it was Rudolf, this Golden-Haired Old Man, who couldn't help but laugh and say: "Nikas, don't tease him anymore. Bolvar's life isn't easy now."

"That little girl Klein's methods are ruthless. Some time ago, she directly purged two-thirds of the royal family. Now, nobody sends good things to Bolvar every few days."

"Since she's the Empress, why inversely purge the royal family members? Doesn't she need to rely on your strength?" Nikas inquired further.

"You really don't know?" Rudolf sized Nikas up: "Of course she doesn't need to. She relies on Li Yu's strength."

"Li Yu, isn't that Dragon Sovereign? His reputation has been quite loud recently." Nikas knew Li Yu, or rather, it was hard not to know.

"Klein is that kid's Concubine, so..." Rudolf said halfway.

"What does that matter? Could Dragon Sovereign possibly interfere in your internal affairs? Moreover, since this Empress is disobedient, just replace her with an obedient one," Nikas said casually.

"If only it were that simple." Bolvar sighed.

"That Dragon Sovereign disagrees?" Nikas asked: "Everyone is a lifeform of the same tier, it's not like you'd clash over this small matter, right."

"If not, call him over now, let's discuss it. Just right, I also want to meet this junior whose life has risen."

"He wouldn't refuse to give us four face, right?"

"Just stay out of it... He's different from others..." Bolvar glanced at Nikas.

This Old Friend of his was nearly ten thousand years old. The long years of life had worn away most of his emotions.

Only lifeforms of the same tier could talk to him face-to-face. The lifespan of other lifeforms didn't even reach a fraction of his age, so it was truly hard to raise his interest to communicate.

In his cognition, low-tier lifeforms were always just toys.

It wasn't worth having conflicts with lifeforms of the same tier over low-tier lifeforms.

"By saying that, I'm getting interested. How is he different? He can't possibly just flip the table, right." Nikas said with great interest:

"There are four of us now, could he really dare to fight four alone?"

Bolvar Hesitated to Speak. It was unlikely for Li Yu to fight four alone, but you're not a person of Returning Star.

After you leave, he has plenty of methods.

"Overall, Returning Star's comprehensive influence is still constantly rising. Although temporary interests were affected, it's harmless."

Venerable Elder Rudolf smoothed things over and didn't continue dwelling on this topic.

"Last time I came to Returning Star, Majesty Digor was still around. Didn't expect this time, I came to attend his memorial," Nikas shook his head and sighed.

Hearing this, the few people fell silent. Bolvar was about to speak when a notification sound suddenly rang in the room.

"Master, Your Excellency Li Yu is here to visit." At the same time, a screen popped up, showing precisely Li Yu's figure. He was currently located outside the room.

"Why is he here?" Bolvar's expression changed slightly. His relationship with Li Yu wasn't considered good, so why would the other party suddenly visit.

"Then just right, introduce us," Nikas was quite interested.

Bolvar pondered for a moment. No matter the reason, since Li Yu came, he definitely couldn't refuse him entry. He could only caution:

"His thoughts are different from ours, don't use your theories to communicate with him."

"Go, go." Nikas didn't care at all.

Bolvar's mouth twitched, and he couldn't be bothered to say more.

Opening the door, his expression was indifferent, saying: "Your Excellency Dragon Lord, truly a rare guest. Why didn't you notify me in advance, so I could prepare."

"What's there to prepare, we're all our own people," Li Yu smiled and walked straight in.

Bolvar temporarily Can't Figure Out what Li Yu was here for, so he could only remain composed for now and followed behind Li Yu.

Stepping into the living room, several gazes landed on Li Yu simultaneously.

"Dragon Sovereign?" Nikas sized up this young man before him, looking unremarkable with nothing special.

"And you are?" Li Yu asked politely.

"Nikas."

"Star Devouring--Nikas?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. This was a rather famous powerhouse from the Spirit-Devouring Race, living by Devouring metal minerals.

"Yes," Nikas nodded slightly.

"I've looked forward to meeting you for a long time," Li Yu smiled and exchanged a few words of Superficial Courtesy.

You don't slap a smiling face. Nikas also nodded, expressing friendliness.

"These two are both attending the memorial ceremony, they are Majesty Digor's personal Friends," Bolvar introduced.

"Thank you everyone for coming, Majesty Digor... was a good person," Li Yu routinely reminisced.

Bolvar let Li Yu sit down, acting neither too close nor too distant.

"Your Excellency Dragon Lord's arrival, I wonder what urgent matter there is?" Bolvar continued to ask. He didn't believe Li Yu was just here purely to catch up.

"Heard from Klein that you all gathered together, didn't have a chance to have a good chat before, so I came," Li Yu said casually. Saying directly that he came to spar seemed a bit disrespectful.

After all, his relationship with these people wasn't good. Saying that sounded like coming to cause trouble.

These few people were good Tool Persons for grinding progress. He still had to battle often in the future, so he couldn't be too reckless, otherwise they wouldn't play with him anymore.

"Just heard from Bolvar that this Klein's methods seem very ruthless, damaging quite a bit of Bolvar's interests," Nikas, hearing Klein's name again, immediately spoke up.

Bolvar's expression stiffened. I just told you not to mention it, yet you still say it, is there something wrong with your brain?

"Oh?" Li Yu stared at this Nikas, not knowing what medicine the other party was selling in his gourd.

"Change a ruler..." Nikas said naturally, as if asking Li Yu if he had eaten lunch.

"Since she's a plaything, she should have the self-awareness of a plaything. She relies on your prestige to damage the interests of Bolvar and the others, this will ruin the relationship between you guys, it's not worth it."

Li Yu's expression was strange as he glanced at Bolvar. Bolvar's face also didn't look too good, and he said in a deep voice: "Nikas, this is Returning Star's internal affair, don't interfere."

"Bolvar is just thin-skinned. How about giving us some face?" Nikas continued, looking at Li Yu.

Li Yu looked at the Nikas before him, somewhat unaccustomed to it for a moment.

Where did this person get such a big face, opening his mouth to ask me to give him face? Did he eat the Face-Face Fruit? His hair isn't even red.

"It's better for Your Excellency not to interfere in Returning Star's internal affairs," Li Yu shook his head and said.

"You might have just stepped into this tier and aren't used to this way of handling things yet, but as time passes, you'll know. Other low-tier lifeforms are just Transient in our eyes, they won't leave the slightest trace," Nikas said with an indifferent tone:

"Only lifeforms of the same tier can be called Friends, or enemies. The rest are all just playthings."

"We hope to become your Friends, and hope you are too."

"Are you threatening me?" Li Yu heard the rest as a blur, only feeling an Idiot was chattering away.

But this sentence, he understood. This Old Fellow was threatening him, if we can't be Friends, then we're enemies?

I was just worrying about not finding an excuse to fight, and someone delivers themselves, tsk tsk...

"Just a suggestion," Nikas shook his head and said.

"Where do you get your confidence from?" Li Yu grinned and laughed:

"An Idiot who Suddenly Appeared from nowhere, also dares to threaten me?"

"Bolvar, you really are living backwards. You think finding an extra person here can threaten me?"

We are just having a normal gathering!

Bolvar was also very helpless. How did he want to deal with Li Yu? It was just a normal gathering.

Who knew Nikas would have such a spasm and insist on standing up for him.

"You are insulting me?" An unstable Aura erupted from Nikas's body.

"Wanna fight?" Li Yu looked around: "Are you sure you can? If not, you four can team up too."
