Chapter 591: Meeting Xilian Meraphis Again

Lavitan is a local kingpin; in reality, he and Haosen dominate the Ruling Anthem. Ning Long is a Dragon Girl, and unless someone has water in their brain, no one would go out of their way to provoke the Dragon Race.

Defatandisi, this kid is a monster. He came all the way from the Seventh Art to the Ruling, and it took him just over a year to reach a Level 69 Sergeant Major. This is absolutely terrifying. Unlike the arrogance and tyranny of others, this person's character and reputation are simply top-tier. Everyone believes that once Haosen leaves the Ruling Anthem, he will surely become the new leader of the Ruling.

This genius Cthulhu is definitely here with ill intent; it very much feels like a fierce dragon crossing the river.

In an instant, no one paid any attention to the little commotion between the Orcs and the Humans. Aoliweina immediately brought Kuta over. Aoliweina going to such great lengths was not for herself; she gets along well with these people, and there are factions even among the Star Sergeant Majors. The Sea People can be considered to have friends in high places, so she wants to pave the way for Kuta. As long as Kuta follows everyone on a few more missions, his advancement speed will definitely be rocket-like.

Whether it is the Jincancan Family or Aoliweina, they have this kind of face. Although Aoliweina is small in stature, her aura is truly powerful.

"As soon as you three arrived, you stole all my thunder." See, isn't that how it is? Aoliweina laughed. "This is my younger brother Kuta, a Mage with extremely high talent, just lazy. If the three of you have time, you can give him some pointers." The Jincancan Family has always firmly believed that one's vision determines one's height.

"Senior Sister Ning Long, Senior Brother Defatandisi, Senior Brother Lavitan, you are all my idols. Don't listen to my sister; my little bit of ability is only enough to get by," Kuta said with great self-awareness. In front of these three, there was no point in putting on an act.

"Kuta, since you've come to the Ruling, just hang out with me. I guarantee you'll be like a fish in water!" Lavitan said enthusiastically.

Who could dislike a God of Wealth? The identity of this little guy is extraordinary; whether his strength is real or not is unimportant. Defatandisi smiled slightly. "Kuta, no need to be so humble. Given the situation in the Ruling and your talent, you will soon have a chance to show what you can do. Palani produces geniuses generation after generation. The talent of the Sea People is directly related to their bloodline," Oliveira said with a beaming smile.

"If you put it that way, I don't even have any confidence left," Lavitan curled his lips.

This lukewarm, two-faced person really knows how to say nice things. On this point, he and Haosen truly cannot compare. "You know, when it comes to cultivation, I never joke. The Jincancan Family's bloodline is excellent, and Kuta's foundation is solid. You are too anxious; if it were me, I wouldn't be happy either. Him surpassing you is only a matter of time," Deaoziersi said.

"Right, Ning Long? You are more persuasive, so Aoliweina won't think I'm just saying nice things." Ning Long smiled and nodded.

"I have an event in a few days and will invite everyone; Kuta is also included." Aoliweina looked pleasantly surprised. Compared to the posturing of someone like Lavitan, she clearly preferred the grounded nature of Defatandisi and Ning Long. Kuta had not expected Defatandisi to give him such a high evaluation, especially since the other party's status didn't require it. Looking at such a person, it was hard not to feel a sense of goodwill, and his mood relaxed.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, if there are any suitable missions, remember to call me. I will try my best not to hold you back." "Leave that to me. Not to mention other places, here in Aozier, I have the most resources," Lavitan said.

Damn it, all the limelight was stolen by Defatandisi. That kid, a person from the Seventh Art with nothing but empty words, what kind of resources could he possibly have on Aozier's turf?

The five of them chatted warmly, and the surrounding people who were qualified gradually gathered around. This was not just the core of the Ruling Anthem; in the future, they would all become the backbone of the Star River Alliance.

Sailiwei and Kendi from the Galasta Galactic Core Trade Alliance also walked over. Sailiwei is a Level 41 Sergeant Major, and Kendi is a Level 40 Sergeant Major. Both have the Star title and have entered the top 100 in the Zhuque Heavenly Ladder.

Li Hao and Gasimi didn't feel much; they couldn't integrate into it either. Gaia's lament was greater; the class solidification in the Heavenly Human World is very severe. He wasn't even qualified to crowd over. Being completely unqualified would be one thing, but it just so happened that he had a slight possibility. First, he had to become a Star Sergeant Major.

Suddenly, the winning streak of the past few days didn't feel so joyful anymore. Accompanied by a burst of loud laughter, a Celestial with an imposing aura walked in. The person with the highest status in the entire venue had arrived: Haosen, the boss of the Ruling Anthem and number one on the Zhuque War Zone Heavenly Ladder. Behind him followed several Celestials, one of whom, Dalipeng, was also a Level 38 Sergeant Major. It was rumored that Defatandisi could actually advance to Level 70, but because of Haosen's existence, he hadn't dared to surpass him.

Haosen's aura was extremely aggressive. With a head of red hair and eyes full of unruliness, he looked down at Kuta. "You all arrived so early? You must be Kuta."

"Greetings, Senior Brother." "Good, that's it, Aoliweina. Hand him over to me; let him set a new record for Sergeant Major advancement." Haosen was also vigorously wooing Aoliweina, not for the sake of the Anthem, but to pave the way for his family and the future.

"Damn, Haosen, you're stealing my business. I'll handle the early stages, and you can come in when the difficulty increases later," Lavitan said, displeased.

Given their relationship, Haosen didn't mind, and he had no interest in being a babysitter anyway; it was just polite talk.

"Haha, alright, first come first served, I'll let you take advantage."

"Since everyone is here, let's officially begin." Aoliweina was very happy; today had been a fruitful one.

As soon as Haosen arrived, he immediately seized the right to speak and became the center of everyone's attention.

Defatandisi was instantly marginalized. The Seventh Art also had some Warriors in the Ruling Anthem, but this was, after all, the territory of the Ozil Empire, and overall, they couldn't compare. Haosen would never miss an opportunity to assert his authority on such an occasion. Even the sycophants became bootlickers, flattering Haosen. This was the rule Haosen had established in the Ruling Anthem over the past five years: if you're a dragon, you must coil; if you're a tiger, you must crouch. As long as he was in the Ruling for a day, he was the boss of the Ruling.

Watching Haosen deliberately chatting warmly with Ning Long, Defatandisi didn't mind; his gaze searched the crowd. He had come here with another purpose.

Li Hao and Gasimi were eating happily.

Seeing that Haosen hadn't noticed him, Gaia, feeling relieved, talked animatedly while introducing the big shots here to him. It seemed Haosen had forgotten him; after all, several years had passed. Once Haosen left, and in another two years when he became a Sergeant Major, it would be his turn to dominate the scene.

Suddenly, there was one more person in the seat, smiling as he watched Li Hao eating with great enjoyment. Gaia thought the sycophants had come again, but when he looked up, he froze.

The Ice Prince, Defatandisi.

Li Hao also looked up and saw Defatandisi Cthulhu in front of him—a completely unfamiliar shell, yet carrying a very distant but still very familiar feeling. Their eyes met, and time seemed to freeze. Li Hao looked at Defatandisi; the contours of the past were gone, but a person's Spirit determines their temperament, and the temperament hadn't changed at all. No, it was more mature, more peaceful.

Defatandisi also looked at Li Hao, feeling even more deeply. The trials he had experienced were a magic beyond what ordinary people could imagine. The culprit who had once strangled everything he had—or perhaps one should say the accomplice—had also broken through the shackles of a low-level civilization and stood before him once again.

Which difficulty was higher? Fate indeed likes to tease people. But there was no sword-drawn, bow-bent confrontation between the two now, nor any feeling of an old friend's reunion. Looking back at the boyish games of the past, there was no right or wrong, merely success or failure. Xilian was not someone who couldn't afford to lose; all things considered, he was the one who had turned a misfortune into a blessing. Nangong Yuhang, who thought he had won everything, had lost the most miserably.

Gasimi stopped, eyes wide as she looked at the two. Gaia was also completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened. Did the two know each other?

"I didn't expect to see you here again," Li Hao said. There weren't many things that could surprise him, but this was one—very sudden. Defatandisi smiled slightly, also feeling deeply moved. "I also feel a bit like I'm dreaming."

"Haha, life is like a dream. Let's have a drink." Li Hao took the initiative to pour a glass for Defatandisi. Regardless of everything, he had beaten him into a vegetative state back then, indirectly completing Nangong Yuhang's plan. Defatandisi smiled slightly, took the glass, and drained it in one gulp.

"A familiar taste. The introduction of human food has indeed made life much better for Youzi recently." The diet of the Celestials is truly poor. Ever since the Solar System joined the Star River Alliance, supplies have been pouring in. Everything has become comfortable, and Defatandisi was naturally the first to enjoy it.

Ning Long had been paying attention to this side. She knew that although Defatandisi was easygoing and approachable, he was deeply arrogant in his bones. His lack of contention was not true lack of contention, but rather having a more ambitious goal. "Junior Brother, who is this?"

Ning Long scrutinized Li Hao. Those unique black pupils—Celestials have the "Gem Pupil" characteristic, and the Starry Eyes are the most special, while black pupils are the characteristic of the Dragon Person. Gradually, a strange look appeared in Ning Long's eyes; this person had the residual aura of Dimension Power on him.

Li Hao also looked at the Dragon Girl before him. A very wondrous power composition, completely different from other life forms. A Youyou was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen; Aoliweina was also a delicate, elven type; Dash was that kind of extremely charming feeling. But the Dragon Girl before him, Ning Long, was a kind of powerful, gorgeous beauty at the level of life. If one didn't possess sufficient strength, one would feel inferior upon seeing her. The Dragon Girl's physique was even better than that of the Celestials.

It wasn't the kind like Helena; it was the beauty of extreme power and vitality, more like humanity's imagination of "Gods," or perhaps it was their subconscious influence on humanity. This was likely the power that had always influenced the Ancient Heavenly Scriptures.

The interference of major civilizations on humanity is truly not just a little bit. "These dragon horns are quite pretty," Defatandisi smiled slightly. "Let me introduce you: Li Hao, a Human expert from the Solar System. Casting Star Dragon Race, Ning Long, a top representative of the younger generation of the Dragon Race."

"Li Hao from Earth's Tianjing. In the myths of our place, dragons are auspicious and lucky creatures," he said, extending his hand.

Ning Long felt the traces of dimensional intervention on Li Hao. "I hope our meeting is also the beginning of good fortune." Sensing more and more gazes around them, Defatandisi looked at Li Hao. "Shall we find a quiet place to talk?"
