Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 559 - 297: The Five Giants of Chenxing Principality
Chapter 560: Chapter 297: The Five Giants of Chenxing Principality
Indeed, both of these twin Floating Lands are Fifth-Rank Life-Form Star Sea Floating Lands. However, even the imperial “Chenxing Clan” of the Chenxing Principality and that renowned Duke Rosetta cannot control these two precious Fifth-Rank Life Floating Lands by themselves.
Apart from that peak Fifth-Rank Chenxing Yin Continent, the other, more ordinary Fifth-Rank Chenxing Yang Continent is now jointly controlled by several of the Principality’s major powers.
The Dinghai Song Family is one of them. However, the area controlled by the Song Family is not large, occupying only 1/20 of the entire Chenxing Yang Continent. Others, like the Chenxing Imperial Family, the Eagle Marquis Family, the Dusk Marquis Family, and the Golden Horn Lu Clan, each occupy 1/10 of this Chenxing Yang Continent.
Regarding this matter, the upper echelons of the Song Family have always been quite dissatisfied.
The five major powers of the Chenxing Principality consist of the Chenxing Imperial Family, Golden Horn Lu Clan, Dusk Marquis Family, Dinghai Song Family, and Eagle Marquis Family.
No one dares to gossip about the two old giants of power, the Imperial Family and the Golden Horn Lu Clan. As for the Dusk Marquis Family, with that prodigiously talented Dusk Marquis, who stepped into the Sixth Rank in just over two thousand years, the Dusk Star Domain, although not as long-established as the Dinghai Star Domain, is still convincing. However, the Eagle Family is really not living up to its name.
...
After over a thousand years of internal strife, this founding Marquis Family has long since lost its former glory and is now far inferior to the Dinghai Song Family. Although still guarded by three Fifth-Rank Battleship Captains, they are nothing but dead bones in their graves. It’s about time they relinquished their interests in the Chenxing Yang Continent.

It was only because the ancient ancestor of the Dinghai Song Family had recently stepped into the Sixth Rank that the entire Song Family Clan is being cautious, consolidating its foundation and strictly forbidding expansion of influence beyond the Dinghai Star Domain. Otherwise, these circumstances would have changed long ago.
…
Chenxing Yang Continent, Holy Star City.
As the true imperial city on the Floating Land of the capital, Holy Star City spans a staggering area of nearly a million square kilometers, with a permanent population exceeding one billion.
Holy Star City, Star Avenue, Dragon Spine Shops.
As one of the five major forces of the Chenxing Principality, the Dinghai Song Family’s exclusive shop in Holy Star City is naturally located on the bustling Star Street.

In this gold-priced Star Street, the Dragon Spine Shops occupy a towering building a kilometer high, unlike the family’s more traditional courtyard-style buildings on the Dragon Spine Continent. The architecture in Holy Star City consists of skyscrapers with dazzling lights that seem to transport one into a dreamlike world.
Above the streets, various latest models of Floating Land vehicles shuttle continuously, while above the city, a large number of Torch Warships hover in the air. At a glance, the rich cyberpunk atmosphere hits you in the face.
Even so, in this forest of tall buildings that constitutes the imperial city, the Dragon Spine Shop Building towering over a kilometer high is still one of the tallest structures.
Dragon Spine Shop Building, level 320.
In the office of the Deputy Manager of the Dragon Spine Shops, the man staring at the legitimate descendant of the Dinghai Song Family across from him, dressed in a proper suit, spoke again:
“Yufeng brother, we’ve been friends for so many years, can’t we talk about it?”
“You know the current situation of our Yuan Family. We’re really out of options. How about this, we are willing to put up a Red Quality ‘Hovering Radar’ as collateral, only asking that your shop help our Yuan Family through this urgent crisis…”
The man across, Song Yufeng who had just sipped his tea, remained unmoved. The person named Yuan Tai, whose behind the Yuan Family was neither big nor small on the Chenxing Yang Continent, used to have the title of a court-ennobled earl, but in recent years, the Yuan Family has been declining, with family children being more absurd than the last.
A few years ago, the initial court-ennobled earl, who was also the only Fourth-Rank Contender Captain in the Yuan Family, passed away, leaving the family completely deflated. The originally decent family fortune was quickly eyed by outside forces.
In just a few short years, the Yuan Family’s foundation had dissipated, and under the malicious manipulation of some Fourth-Rank powers, they incurred a considerable amount of high-interest debt. If they cannot repay it in time, the Yuan Family might face the fate of utter ruin.
It was because Yuan Tai was one of the somewhat clever ones of the ruling generation of the Yuan Family that Song Yufeng, a legitimate descendant of the Song Family with a Clan Elder as a grandfather, would even associate with him.
“Yuan Tai, little brother, you…”
Seeing Song Yufeng beginning to speak, Yuan Tai sitting across from him grew more anxious, fearing to hear an unwanted answer. But at this critical moment, Song Yufeng suddenly stopped talking, which made Yuan Tai all the more anxious.
“Brother Yufeng, is something wrong?”
Though eager, Yuan Tai still patiently asked in a soft voice. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the Deputy Manager of the Dragon Spine Shops suddenly stand up from his chair with a face that shifted between joy and concern, utterly unpredictable.
Surprised, Yuan Tai wondered what could make Song Yufeng, known for his composure even if Mount Tai were to collapse in front of him, lose his poise like this after years of acquaintance.
Song Yufeng did not answer Yuan Tai’s question but murmured to himself:
“A message from the Quantum Communication Bracelet, this means that person has already arrived on the Chenxing Yang Continent, so quick…”
Muttering, he quickly left his seat and strode toward the office door. Seeming not satisfied with his speed, wisps of Spectral Energy surfaced on his body, and with its enhancement, Song Yufeng’s speed became even faster.
