Chapter 918: Chapter 786: Mutual Disregard

After landing, Qu Jianlei and the others were slightly affected, but it was nothing serious.

Xiang Xue displayed A-level aura, and the patrol did not bother them further; A-level and B-level are indeed fundamentally different entities.

According to regulations, they could inquire about the purpose of the empty ship’s arrival here.

This was one of the opportunities to exploit loopholes, but the two patrol officers wisely chose to pass it up.

When leaving the Star Port, they encountered no setbacks.

Qu Jianlei and the Paranoid still used Spiritual Influence; all five of them had Celestial Hook Star Realm identities, so they weren’t afraid of checks.

As for Celestial Hook people piloting a starship registered at Blade... this was entirely normal.

Registered at Blade doesn’t mean one’s operations are limited to the Blade Star Realm, and crew recruitment can be from all over.

In truth, the patrols of the starship and the guards at the Star Port aren’t really a single department, nor is there much necessity for mutual communication.

Upon leaving the Star Port, everyone found a place to rest before starting their adventure.

To be honest, staying on the starship all the time was indeed stifling, and such emotions need to be vented.

It’s just as well since everyone from Garbage Star hadn’t played around Central Star before, even Bentley was in high spirits.

But it was tough for Qu Jianlei, having to wander everywhere, purchasing the components needed for the starship.

Fortunately, the Star of Hope does not disgrace its name as a Central Star, offering various components that can be bought, which might not be the case on other planets.

Qu Jianlei took two days to purchase, then he joined the others to explore while buying some other items incidentally.

In the blink of an eye, they had stayed on the Star of Hope for eight days.

During this period, even Claire, who loved playing the most, began to feel a bit bored.

”Boss, how about we find a place to cultivate? Playing all day... feels empty.”

Qu Jianlei nodded slightly, ”After we wrap things up, is everyone well-rested?”

Once rested, they could start working, and during these days, he had obtained new false identities for everyone.

In the end, it was the place where he had previously handled fake certificates, so he possessed a lot of relevant information and could find a way.

Additionally, he inquired some news from the Divine Text Association; those guys hadn’t given up the search for the Panda.

Currently, there are five Supreme members of Divine Text Association across the four habitable stars of Hope Star Realm—that’s the obvious count.

Inside Hope Star, there are two, two on Star No. 2, with the remaining one primarily on Star No. 4, but moving around.

Moreover, in the Hope Star Realm, there are many who buy favor from the Divine Text Association, with several Supreme figures tagging along.

Mainly because here, the members of Divine Text Association are unaffected by the Celestial Hook Star Realm affairs, as if residing in a Faraday Cage.

In fact, such situations are not uncommon, as the entire Imperial realm doesn’t know how many things happen daily; minor ones are frequent, but so are major ones.

And with the Divine Text Association’s deep roots and abundant Supreme members, they are well-equipped to handle multiple severe incidents simultaneously.

It was precisely for this reason that Qu Jianlei brought the team back, one for vengeance, and two for alleviating Celestial Hook’s situation.

As long as they severely hit the Divine Text Association in Hope Star Realm, it was certain that the Divine Text Association on the Celestial Hook side would be affected.

Though Qu Jianlei wished to operate directly here, considering that they arrived through official channels, it seemed inappropriate.

Thus, he left Xiao Qin and Claire on the Star of Hope, while he, the Paranoid, Flower Scorpion, Bentley, and Xiang Xue headed to Star No. 2.

Originally, Qu Jianlei intended to leave Xiang Xue and take Claire, but she wanted to visit the Zi Jiu Immortal whom she hadn’t seen in ages.

Conversely, Claire, knowing she couldn’t go to Star No. 2, pouted her lips.

Bentley, Flower Scorpion, and Xiang Xue used false identities, while Qu Jianlei and the Paranoid followed the usual route of infiltration.

Upon arriving at Star No. 2, Qu Jianlei felt more familiar, having spent a considerable amount of leisure time here before.

It was the usual routine of finding a place to settle down, with no further explanation needed.

Xiang Xue wanted to look for Zi Jiu Immortal, but Qu Jianlei stopped her, considering that Professor Zi was once closely associated with Panda.

Xiang Xue herself had similar suspicions, appearing during this time could easily lead to associative thoughts.

Everyone relaxed for two days, then near evening, Flower Scorpion went out alone.

By dinner time, she returned with an old lady.

Years of absence had rendered Granny Jia even older, her eyes nearly shutting, her gaze increasingly clouded.

Yet her legs seemed agile enough; upon entering, she glanced up and down at Qu Jianlei with a slight nod, ”You truly are Supreme now.”

Qu Jianlei smiled, ”I’ve advanced for some time, haven’t had a chance to visit you.”

”What’s there to see,” Granny Jia dismissively shook her head, then casually swept her gaze.

A moment later, her gaze returned, fixing on the Paranoid with a flash of brilliance, ”This is... what’s going on?”

The Paranoid turned to look at her, his eyes slightly amused, but spoke nothing.

In the next moment, Granny Jia reverted to her aged state, snorting weakly, ”You seem unfazed?”

”A friend, perhaps,” Qu Jianlei replied off-handedly, ”What do you find strange?”

Before Granny Jia could speak, the Paranoid grew discontent, ”Why are you polite with her and indifferent with me?”

”Respect?” Qu Jianlei tilted his head to glance at him, that look was clear: Haven’t you noticed what you’ve done?

Granny Jia raised her sparse eyebrows at his words, ”Oh... a big shot, huh?”

Paranoid glanced at her indifferently, ”A big shot, certainly, at least a bit bigger than you.”

”Is that so?” Granny Jia’s face, full of wrinkles, showed no expression.

She murmured softly, ”Why does it feel like... there’s a problem with spiritual power and physical body.”

”Oh?” Even Paranoid, with his high standards, was a bit surprised, then looked at Qu Jianlei, ”You spread it around?”

”Am I that idle?” Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him, too lazy to bother with the guy.

Then he looked at Granny Jia, handing over an exquisite box with a smile, ”A small token of gratitude.”

The old lady took the box and opened it casually, then paused slightly, as inside was a black crystal the size of a duck egg.

”Crystal?” She glanced at Qu Jianlei, shook her head, and pushed the box back, speaking faintly.

”It’s thoughtful of you, but I don’t need it anymore, better to leave it for someone who does.”

Qu Jianlei shook his head with a smile, ”I don’t lack this, consider it repayment for your help back then.”

When he hunted his first supreme, Steve, it was thanks to the old lady’s help, otherwise it would have been difficult to wrap up.

”By the way, I’d like to ask, do you have any advice on the two supreme beings of the Divine Text Association?”

Granny Jia glanced at Paranoid, sighing inwardly.

She certainly guessed what Panda was up to this time. She originally thought he was being a bit reckless.

But adding in this guy with a big mouth, it was different, likely to stir up a storm.

However, in the end, she did not dissuade, merely saying flatly.

”The Divine Text Association has not only the two supreme beings on the surface but also a familial supreme and a hunting team.”

”Hunting team?” Paranoid couldn’t help but frown at the words, ”How many people?”

Granny Jia glanced at him, not bothering to respond, and instead looked at Qu Jianlei again.

”If you can’t end it quickly, it’ll bring you a lot of trouble, better to use a spiritual attack.”

”Spiritual attack... might not be convenient to use,” Qu Jianlei replied with a wry smile.

When he and Paranoid dealt with the Anomalous Management Division at Celestial Hook, the most notable feature was that they both used spiritual attacks.

The reason he came to the Hope Star Realm was not only to vent his grievances but also to divert attention from the Celestial Hook area.

If the Anomalous Management Division thought Ran Bingluan’s team ran to the Hope Star Realm and pursued them with all their might, it would be a big problem.

Otherwise, he could have acted separately with Paranoid, one initiating on Hope Star, one taking action on Star No. 2.

—The key is that this way of acting had been used by Ran Bingluan’s team before, easily leading to associations.

As Qu Jianlei pondered, Paranoid spoke irritably, ”Boss, who is this, so arrogant?”

Qu Jianlei chuckled, ”Just like you, once a prodigious talent.”

”Prodigious talent,” Paranoid snorted disdainfully, ”The empire hasn’t had that many prodigious talents.”

Granny Jia was quite curious about this person, just didn’t like his way of speaking.

She was an old age, not allowing others to be presumptuous? ”Since you call him boss, you’d better show some respect to me!”

”Respect?” Paranoid sneered, ”I call him boss for a reason, you little girl... don’t be ridiculous!”

”Little girl?” Granny Jia’s eyes flashed with brilliance, and her face full of wrinkles showed a serious expression.

She carefully asked, ”May I know how old you are now...?”

”Definitely older than you,” Paranoid answered without hesitation, ”Given your big tone, tell me your name.”

Granny Jia’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as she cautiously asked, ”Beyond supreme?”

Paranoid rolled his eyes, asking indifferently, ”What else?”

”My goodness...” Granny Jia was truly startled upon hearing this.

Although she didn’t like causing trouble, she was quite proud, especially when facing equally outstanding people.

After contemplating, she cautiously asked, ”May I know how to address you?”

Paranoid glanced at her askance, unwilling but said, ”You haven’t answered, do you get to ask?”

After thinking for a moment, the old lady answered in a deep voice, ”I failed at breaking through, disgraceful and discouraging, don’t want to mention a name.”

”Hmm?” Paranoid was a bit surprised at the words, truly not expecting that she had once attempted to break through beyond supreme.

In the supreme circle, there are also layers.

No supreme doesn’t want to go further, but few really dare to take this step.

First, there is the issue of personal accumulation. Without the strength, don’t idly dream—failing to break through can indeed be deadly.

Even if it doesn’t result in death, failing to break through will definitely have a cost, most likely damaging your cultivation level.
