My Talent Skill Mutated

Dongfang Yao looked at him and nodded gently.

Dongfang Yu’s face was filled with shock. It took him a long while to snap out of it.

”I never expected to run into you here. In that case, you should call me cousin,” Dongfang Yu said, smiling at her.

Hearing this, Dongfang Yao’s elegant brows furrowed.

Chen Yu and Zhuge Qingtian exchanged a glance. They both found his words incredible.

But the Dongfang family was spread across the nine realms, and its branches were a tangled mess they couldn’t possibly sort out.

”Haha, it’s a pleasure to meet you, cousin. Consider this a little welcoming gift.” Dongfang Yu laughed heartily and produced a shining pearl. Enveloped in Qi, it floated into Dongfang Yao’s hand.

”A Divine Spirit Pearl, and an outstanding-grade one at that!”

’Now *that’s* what you call filthy rich!’ Chen Yu and Zhuge Qingtian thought simultaneously as they stared at the Divine Spirit Pearl in Dongfang Yao’s hand.

Giving away an outstanding-grade Divine Spirit Pearl just after meeting someone.

The Dongfang family’s resources were far beyond what they had ever imagined.

Dongfang Yao looked at the Divine Spirit Pearl in her hand, then back at Dongfang Yu.

Seeing her hesitation, Dongfang Yu spoke up. ”Cousin, just take it. No need to be polite. My maternal granduncle’s son is Dongfang Zhen. You should know of him, right?”

At these words, Dongfang Yao finally broke into a smile. ”Thank you, cousin.”

”Haha, we’re family. Don’t mention it,” Dongfang Yu said with a cheerful laugh.

Behind him, the crew-cut youth and the large man exchanged a glance, a sour feeling rising in their hearts.

’The boss is way too generous! That’s an outstanding-grade Divine Spirit Pearl!’

’For a cousin he just met? And she’s not even from our world. Is it really necessary?’

’Then again, this cousin seems pretty powerful. She has the Phoenix Power, a supreme ability. Hmm... I guess that makes it reasonable.’

”So, you must all be from Ancestor Star as well?” Dongfang Yu asked, looking at Chen Yu and Zhuge Qingtian.

The two of them no longer concealed it and nodded.

”Brother Chen, your strength is truly admirable. I don’t think I’ve ever met a Level 6 as formidable as you.”

Dongfang Yu said with a broad smile, looking at Chen Yu.

Hearing this praise, Chen Yu remained calm and composed. ”Brother Yu, you’re too kind. I’m just relying on a few abilities. There are plenty of people stronger than me.”

”Hahahaha, Brother Chen, you’re too modest. Among all the Sixth-level Martial Artists I’ve met, you’re the first one who has ever made me feel a sense of danger,” Dongfang Yu boomed with laughter.

”Our meeting is fate. Why don’t we team up? If we happen upon a Star Spring, we can share it. What do you say?” Dongfang Yu asked, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu glanced at Dongfang Yao and Zhuge Qingtian, but neither of them spoke.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Yu finally said, ”Thank you for the kind offer, Brother Yu. I appreciate the thought. However, we came to the Starry Realm to train, so I think we’ll have to pass.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Yu’s expression didn’t change much. He just nodded lightly. ”Alright then. Since Brother Chen wishes to train, we’ll leave it at that. Next time, if we meet on the Stellar Battlefield, I hope we’ll have the chance to cooperate.”

”Definitely,” Chen Yu nodded.

”In that case, we’ll take our leave. Cousin, until we meet again!”

Dongfang Yao nodded.

With that, Dongfang Yu led his two companions away.

Chen Yu’s group watched the three of them leave, holding their gaze for a moment before looking away.

Running into people from other worlds here wasn’t a huge surprise. But running into them on the very first day was truly incredible.

The distance between each world’s entry point into the Starry Realm was immense. To meet someone on the first day was sheer luck.

And for them to be members of the Dongfang family from another world was even more unbelievable.

...

Chen Yu opened his palm, and the sealed Life Light Group appeared. He separated a third of it for his two companions and said, ”Refine this first.”

They both nodded, swallowed their shares of the Life Light Group, and began the absorption process.

Chen Yu also activated his Life Force Field, beginning to fuse with the light.

His Life Force soared, and his Spirit, Essence, and Qi grew steadily stronger.
