Chapter 549: 246, Chaos

White Tower World, Holy Star City.

Within the serene manor, Lin Qing waved his hand, and a dark cyan glass throne appeared on the ground before him.

He sat on it immediately, and his consciousness connected to the virtual space within.

Afterwards, Lin Qing began practicing a divine skill he created in the virtual space that was like the boundless starry sky.

…

Second Cosmic Network, Villor’s private attached space.

“What a hassle…”

Villor frowned while looking at the intelligence just sent over from the home civilization, “Xia Yakesi’s investment in that genius back then resulted in him becoming a Void Dominator. That’s already a feat. Yet now he’s created a divine skill based on space rules? Could potentially become a Void Level Divine Officer? Is he favored by the Universe, or am I favored by the Universe?”

His attendant, a blond masked woman, spoke slowly: “Young Master, the influence of cosmic favor is limited, especially when it comes to a Void Level Divine Officer, such extraordinary figures are miracles by nature.”

“I know.”

Villor took a deep breath, “But if Xia Yakesi has the support of a Void Level Divine Officer behind him, it could truly be troubling. At the next group assessment, unless I have a major breakthrough or the backing of a super strong, it’s possible Xia Yakesi would be reconsidered as the primary heir, going slower in every step, and ultimately my fate would also…”

As one of Tianze Group’s chosen heirs, he faces a lot of competition.

He has come this far, and even if he wanted to quit, it’s impossible now.

The blond masked woman was slightly surprised and said: “Young Master can connect with Lord Xing Yin, which will be highly regarded by the group, and once Young Master passes the test of King Relics, he will be in a different place.”

Villor remained silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: “Lord Xing Yin is, after all, a high-ranking figure in the Tianyuan Sacred Land. How could she truly pay attention to me? To her, I happen to have some utility value, that’s all.”

He paused, “As for the test of King Relics? It’s hard to say whether I can pass it, and even if I do, it’s uncertain what I might gain.”

The blond masked woman had nothing more to say.

Indeed, the Three Great Holy Lands are so transcendent, they have always overlooked many Void Sea civilizations. How could they care about an heir from a 2.7-level Civilization force?

“Only do my best.”

Villor said calmly: “Try my best to leave a good impression on Lord Xing Yin. For someone of her stature, just a trace of annoyance or impatience would mean I’d never have the chance to connect again.”

The blond masked woman nodded slightly.

“By the way,” Villor suddenly asked, “What about those geniuses I asked you to invest in earlier?”

“The most promising one, much like myself, is likely to become a Void Dominator.” The blond masked woman said: “But their comprehension is quite ordinary, failing to create a Three Phases Combined divine skill, probably won’t achieve a Void Level Divine Position.”

Villor frowned and shook his head: “True geniuses are all arrogant, finding those unknown is way too difficult.”

With his status in the group, there are already dozens of Void Dominators supporting him. One more or less doesn’t make much difference.

A sufficiently influential figure is needed.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Villor’s expression changed, and he immediately said solemnly: “Lord Xing Yin wishes to see me, you leave first.”

The blond masked woman nodded and withdrew.

Villor adjusted his attire and then took a deep breath, inviting Lord Xing Yin into this private attached space.

In the next moment, Lord Xing Yin, dressed in opulent clothes, appeared here.

“Lord Xing Yin.” Villor greeted respectfully.

“Villor, have someone keep an eye on that Jing Guang,” Xing Yin said indifferently, “Don’t let him get away.”

“Keep an eye?” Villor was slightly surprised, then quickly responded: “Has Lord Xing Yin already confirmed the situation?”

“My father has confirmed that Jing Guang is not from Tianyuan Constellation,”

Xing Yin said coldly: “Even taking so long to create a single phase divine skill shows he’s not a Holy Land Star God, but likely a Star God from a weak civilization who got lucky, trying to exploit my Tianyuan Civilization to seek benefits.”

She hesitated for a moment, then added: “My father also confirmed, through observing the entangled connections on Jing Guang’s body, that the Void Creature servant beside him is merely his avatar.”

“As expected…” Villor’s expression turned complex, feeling a sense of regret.

Had he known this earlier, during the Endless Pool incident, he should have acted directly to snatch the Proof of the King, avoiding such troubles and perhaps earning favor from Lord Xing Yin.

Back then, out of respect for the other party’s Tianyuan Civilization background, he dared not act but chose to give up a slot.

“Villor.”

Xing Yin looked at Villor, speaking indifferently: “Have your people keep an eye on Jing Guang, don’t let him escape back home forcing me to personally intervene, understood?”

Villor nodded slowly and said solemnly: “Rest assured, my lord.”

Xing Yin glanced at him before leaving.

She was going to consult her father, letting her father, the Ancestor’s Direct Disciple, conduct a thorough investigation. Once confirmed that Jing Guang is not one of the Holy Land’s incredibly high-ranking Star Gods, she’ll have no qualms.

Perhaps Villor might act, but as long as it’s not ordered by her, it is irrelevant to her.

“Young Master?”

After Xing Yin left, the blond masked woman reappeared behind Villor.

“Have the personal guards keep an eye on Jing Guang,” Villor said gravely, “If anything happens, report to me immediately, he must not escape.”
