Chapter 1806 - 69: Ziwei’s Old Man (Part 2)
Chapter 1806 - 69: Ziwei’s Old Man (Part 2)
The number of people at the Upper Control Level, even at the Peak Control Level, added up here, isn’t a thousand, it’s eight hundred, but someone like Zhang Xiaoman at the Fake Transcendent Level is just the one, and that’s the gap.
The understanding of the Divine Domain cannot be compared to ordinary Middle Sequence Dark Spirit Particles.
Zi Kuang naturally also saw Zhang Xiaoman’s strength. Just now he personally witnessed him taking on a dozen elders alone, and his dual Divine Domain Series Fusion was secretly praised by him.
It can be said that such a genius who has already stepped into the Transcendent Level with one foot, given time, must also be one of them.
So, in his eyes, Zhang Xiaoman is not only his daughter’s friend, but also a future Transcendent Level member, completely different from those ordinary Control Levels; he already treats the opponent as a fellow.
Otherwise, relying solely on the identity of a daughter’s friend wouldn’t be enough for him to speak so freely with him. Zi Kuang would have taught him a lesson long ago.
Now, although Zi Kuang is glaring at him, he hasn’t taken any other actions, which has surprised everyone around. Only those whose strength has reached the Peak Control Level and have a broad vision will understand the reason behind this, recognizing that although Ji Xing is arrogant and annoying, his strength is indeed strong enough, and their understanding of the Divine Domain means they might no longer be people of the same world.
"Kid, I just want you to take me to your planet, to see my girl. Is such a small request something you cannot agree to? Are you deceiving this old man? Is she not with you!?"
Zi Kuang’s eyes are glare as if intending to devour someone.
Zhang Xiaoman shrugged, once again refusing:
"I understand, so... No."
"You!"
Purple aura began surging from Zi Kuang’s body.
"Kid, do you really think just because you’re my girl’s friend, this old man won’t lay a hand on you!?"
Ice-blue vapor emanated from Zhang Xiaoman’s body, showing not the slightest hint of retreat or compromise.
"Whether the senior dares to move or not, my answer is still the same, no! I know the senior wishes to see your daughter, but have you ever thought about whether she wants to see you?"
"She... she... she..."
Zi Kuang stared at his words without being able to continue, eventually dropping his head again, deflating like a punctured ball, and retracting his aura.
"You’re right... Weiwei might not want to see me... going there might make her run away again, I can see it; she really likes it there. The images you showed me of her smiling happily... I haven’t seen her smile like that for a long time; I didn’t think it through..."
Zhang Xiaoman, who softens but doesn’t yield to force, seeing the elderly man’s sad demeanor, suddenly softened a bit.
"Senior... After all, Purple Wei is your daughter. Once I go back, I can ask her what she thinks. If she is willing to see you, I can come back and tell you."
Zi Kuang’s eyes brightened, and his hair slightly perked up.
"Is that so! Wonderful! Then this old man thanks you, friend! Friend, let’s add each other, shall we!"
As he spoke, he took out his personal terminal and added Zhang Xiaoman into his contacts, making the latter feel somewhat awkward.
"Haha, alright. Ji Xing... hmm, you’re a good kid, haha!"
After adding him as a friend, Zi Kuang looked him up and down a few more times with satisfaction, making Zhang Xiaoman feel quite uneasy, even sensing a hint of fervor in his gaze.
"Already reaching the Fake Transcendent Level at such a young age, able to fuse multiple Divine Domain elements, and cultivating with an advanced Guiding Technique, clearly under the guidance of a master. His personality is decisive, knows gratitude, fears no strong enemy, and doesn’t bully the weak; a fine seedling indeed. That girl Weiwei can follow you, it’s quite a nice match for her..."
Listening to the other’s compliments, Zhang Xiaoman at first felt a bit embarrassed, as the praise was so good it made him shy.
But as he listened further, he noticed something off, and with the look Zi Kuang was giving him—it increasingly felt like a father-in-law inspecting a son-in-law, causing him to shiver.
This cannot happen! He’s already married!
Zhang Xiaoman immediately wanted to explain, but was cut off by Zi Kuang.
"Alright, alright, I know about you young folks’ matters; I know. I see but won’t say; I understand... Just hope you guys put in more effort. Our Purple Charm Clan has a very low birth rate, and with your abilities reaching such a realm, having a child might be even more difficult. But you’re still young, endeavor more, and there’s still a chance..."
Zhang Xiaoman turned black-lined, thinking that Purple Wei’s dad has an impressive imagination, already considering him having a child with Purple Wei so quickly, yet he has no such intention at all; he already has Lin Sisi and doesn’t plan on starting a harem, so there’s simply no possibility of having a child!
However, before he could make things clear to the other to avoid future misunderstandings, sudden violent explosions echoed from the platform’s perimeter, instantly grabbing everyone’s attention present.
"Not good! The Lan Family has attacked us!"
Beside Alman, a Rothschild elder stared shocked at the giant firework blossoms in the cosmic deep space. Those were the fireworks born when their family fleet was shot down, splendid and beautiful.
Zhang Xiaoman also displayed surprise, not anticipating the Lan Family would move so unannounced against the Rothschild family; this was too sudden.
But to say the Lan Family shouldn’t strike the Rothschild family is unrealistic. Eventually, within the Plague Relics, regardless of whether it was Zhang Xiaoman who betrayed Lan Gu, one thing is certain: the ones truly causing their destruction were Rothschilds.
Therefore, under such preconditions, the battle between the Lan Family and Rothschild was unavoidably expected, yet what many didn’t realize was how quickly the Lan Family prepared, suddenly entering a heated battle stage from the outset—evidently executing a full-scale surprise attack.
Understand that this is a whole Super Star System fleet—it’s not just two people brawling in the street. Not simply two punches, one kick, then it’s over. Each Spiritual Power Battleship is a mammoth over a hundred meters long, the process from targeting to launching an attack isn’t something executed in a blink.
"Looking at it this way, from the beginning, the Lan Family had already prepared to strike Rothschild... Later, due to my affair drawing everyone’s attention, the Lan Family seized this opportunity to complete the final surprise preparation, catching the Rothschild family off guard."
Zhang Xiaoman privately analyzed the process while casting his gaze towards the nearby Lan Family Great Elder.
The latter, upon noticing his gaze, surprisingly nodded lightly at him with an expression of gratitude.
"This old fox."
Zhang Xiaoman now comprehended, the Great Elder, perceiving the broken Stellar Treasure Mirror with him, surely knew, knowing the person who shattered it wasn’t Zhang Xiaoman. Perhaps he figured it out early on—it wasn’t Zhang Xiaoman betraying Lan Gu, possibly estimating like that purely to buy time.
"Truly... exactly like Lan Gu... If not for having Lan Ji as a traitor, maybe after this exploration, the Lan Family would wipe the Rothschild family clean..."
Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but sigh.
