I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 854 - 852: You didn’t ask me either
Chapter 854: Chapter 852: You didn’t ask me either
"Noth...nothing..." The forehead of the son of the Legion Commander of the Gala Civilization was sweating, could he dare to say otherwise?
In the Twin Whales Cosmic Empire, their Gala Civilization was just an ordinary Level Four Civilization, and their military strength was much weaker than that of the Xizhe Civilization.
This time, the Lord of the Andromeda Civilization approached him, hoping to seek their protection. But in fact, they simply did not have the courage to confront the Xizhe Civilization.
Their plan was simple. When Shayana married over, they would dispatch a few fleets to symbolically fight, and when they couldn’t win, they would quickly flee. Even if the Andromeda Civilization was defeated, they could argue that the disparity in combat power was too great.
His only goal was Shayana. As for what happened to the Andromeda Civilization, he didn’t care at all. If he couldn’t protect the entire Fairy Civilization, could he not at least protect one woman?
Only he didn’t expect things to almost get finalized, and then suddenly, someone unexpected intervened. A big shot from a Level Five Civilization jumped in, and even if given ten guts, he wouldn’t dare to contend with someone from a Level Five Civilization for a woman.
As for taking revenge on the Lord of Andromeda for betrayal? Could people who are now enjoying the shade under a big tree and protected by a Level Five Civilization need to fear a little Level Four Civilization like them?
"If nothing’s wrong, what are you still doing here? Waiting for us to invite you for a drink?" Ireel showed a very manly side of himself at this moment.
The eldest son of the Legion Commander of the Gala Civilization dared not express his anger, only plastering a smile while quickly leaving.
"What is... what is going on?" The Lord of the Andromeda Civilization was utterly confused as he looked at the badge on Ireel’s chest, marking him as someone from a Level Five Civilization. Just now, his son said this was his daughter Shayana’s boyfriend?
But how could that be possible? Let’s not even discuss whether his daughter has such allure, even if she does, someone at her level simply couldn’t meet someone from a Level Five Civilization, so how could any romance happen?
The situation now was clear to almost everyone, except for Shayana’s father, the master of the Andromeda Civilization, who was still in the dark.
"Father, don’t you know? Our army has already won, and the Gugol Civilization has surrendered!"
"What did you say?" The Lord of the Andromeda Civilization was still unaware of the battlefield news.
At this moment, the expression on the Lord of the Andromeda Civilization’s face suddenly stiffened. Just now, he had unexpectedly received several emails.
The earliest one, a few minutes ago, was an invitation from the Lord of the Laniakea Civilization to visit their capital star, and the tone was very courteous, even somewhat humble.
The entire Laniakea Civilization, with hundreds of Level Three Civilizations, had always seen the Andromeda Civilization ranked low, and until now, he had never had the chance to even meet the Lord of the Laniakea Civilization. Yet now the other party was personally inviting him?
This shock hadn’t ended when another letter was sent to his mailbox. This one came from the master of the Twin Whales Empire!
"Mr. Tunalu, I heard that the Andromeda Civilization has had intense friction with the Gugol Civilization recently. Congratulations on your final victory, and I hope Mr. Tunalu can find time to meet. I look forward to your reply."
"Is this message really from the King?" Tunalu even wondered if he was dreaming. Their King of the Twin Whales Cosmic Empire was personally going to visit him with such an inquiring tone—this was simply absurd!
"Apache, what exactly happened here? This... this honorable figure..."
"Father, I’ve told you, this gentleman is Shayana’s boyfriend. He mobilized a few fleets from Level Five Civilizations and forcibly broke into our Twin Whales Cosmic Empire, helping us defeat the Gugol Civilization and even intercepting the Xizhe Civilization!"
With this explanation from Apache, Tunalu finally understood everything.
No wonder the masters of the Level Four and Level Five Civilizations were each more attentive than the last, as it turned out, they knew the Andromeda Civilization had clung to a big backer and were now looking to establish connections.
"Dear Lord, I genuinely like Shayana, and you shouldn’t oppose us, right?" Ireel seized the opportunity, and this sudden confession made Shayana’s face flush.
Of course, she knew that everything Ireel had now was thanks to Zhang Menglong, but not everyone had the qualifications to benefit from such glory. Wasn’t it because Ireel had the insight to recognize it?
"Of course not, of course not opposed!" Tunalu quickly responded. Does he have any reason to oppose? With such a wealthy son-in-law, he might laugh in his dreams!
"If you think it’s appropriate, your honor, once the exposition ends, we can even go back now to prepare the wedding!" Tunalu seemed afraid that Ireel would change his mind, eager to hold the wedding immediately.
"Shayana, would you be willing?" Ireel gazed at Shayana with deep affection.
Shayana didn’t speak, just nodded slightly.
For them, this exposition was originally just a chance to broaden their knowledge and see if they could meet any significant figures to save their civilization.
Now that all crises had been resolved, the exposition was no longer necessary for them. freёnovelkiss-com
"Brother Zhang, would you like to come back with us? I sincerely invite you to attend our wedding."
"Look at you, in such a rush!" Zhang Menglong could already feel Ireel’s eagerness, "I won’t go; I have other things to do here. Once I’m done here, I’ll come to find you for fun!"
"Respected Cosmic Bank user, your account has received a transfer of 100 stars, and your account has been upgraded to a two-star status in the Cosmic Bank."
Suddenly, Ireel received a notification from the Cosmic Bank.
"This... Brother Zhang, you..."
"It’s a custom from our planet, called a red envelope," Zhang Menglong laughed, "Consider it a wedding gift from me to both of you."
"This gift is too precious, I..." Even having received so many bribes from Cosmic Empire rulers, Ireel only had a deposit of one or two stars at most. Zhang Menglong had gifted him 100 stars in one go, the most precious gift he or his descendants have ever received.
"My brother, Zhang Menglong, deserves such a gift," Zhang Menglong said, "Make sure the wedding is grand, and don’t skimp on Shayana!"
"Don’t worry, I’ll give her the best wedding in the world!"
...
"So boring, there are still several days before the exposition officially starts, where should I go to fool around now?" Zhang Menglong left the Crystal Star and languidly began to wander.
He opened the exposition guide and looked at the layout of all the venues.
Suddenly, a notification caught his attention: Once the Cosmic Underground Exposition officially starts, all transactions must be conducted using Dark Coins.
"What the hell is this Dark Coin?" Zhang Menglong hurriedly consulted Ireel about something he didn’t understand.
"Brother Zhang, I forgot to tell you, within this exposition, only before it officially starts can you use the currency issued by the Cosmic Bank for small transactions. But once the exposition officially begins, only a currency called Dark Coin can be circulated, and Cosmic Coins cannot be used for settlement."
Zhang Menglong nodded in understanding, as such things were shady. Even though the forces hosting the Cosmic Underground Exposition were vast, they still needed to save some face for the Universal Alliance.
Huge transactions occurring here would indeed make it look as if the Universal Alliance had no authority if not struck down. But if they did enforce it, it would result in mutual destruction.
The relative peace of the cosmos existed because all forces understood the need to maintain a balance.
"Then where can I exchange for Dark Coins?"
"That’s probably not easy," Ireel replied, "Dark Coins are actually a type of circulating currency, also uniformly issued by this underground organization. Usually, they can be exchanged through some underground organizations, with an exchange rate currently around 1:10000 compared to Cosmic Coins. But as the underground exposition begins, demand changes, so essentially, you can’t exchange Dark Coins with Cosmic Coins."
Zhang Menglong roughly understood this, and the so-called Dark Coin seemed similar to blockchain items on Earth, just like Bitcoin. Initially, it wasn’t worth much, but when the time came, it gained some attributes equivalent to currency.
"Damn! You could have let me know sooner, so, does this mean my money is unusable now?"
Ireel immediately protested with grievance, "You never asked me! You said you knew about the Cosmic Underground Exposition, so I assumed you knew these rules!"
