581: Zhang, do you still believe in gods and ghosts?

"Hmm..." Chen Heng rubbed his chin. He was already thinking about the Lords of the Celestial Regions in the Void Zone and the Free Zone.

"What do you say, when we get to the Void Zone, should we go find trouble with the Void Emperor first?"

Chen Heng was very interested in that Lord of the Celestial Region. He was curious how powerful the Void Emperor could be.

"?" Aiseya turned her head, utterly bewildered, her eyes filled with terror and confusion.

She couldn't understand why anyone would dare to challenge the authority of a Lord of the Celestial Region.

Bai Jun and the others, however, weren't surprised at all. It would be strange if Chen Heng just explored the Void Zone obediently.

Anyway, except for Dragon God and Aiseya, who didn't understand Chen Heng's strength, the others just felt that it would be good if Chen Heng didn't turn the entire Void Zone upside down.

"Don't worry, I definitely have a plan."

Chen Heng waved his hand, signaling Aiseya not to worry. He was confident he could control how much of a commotion he caused.

At the very least, he wouldn't die.

"Um, I still suggest not doing that..." Aiseya tried to dissuade Chen Heng. She hadn't seen the Dark Spirit Galaxy regain its glory yet and couldn't die so soon.

"Although no one has ever witnessed a battle between Lords of the Celestial Regions, legend has it that the Chaos Zone appeared only after two Lords of the Celestial Regions clashed."

"The Chaos Zone's space is shattered, and dangerous spatial turbulence is everywhere."

"No life exists there; it's an even more desolate place than the Dark Zone."

"However, legend says that Star Gods exist there, but it's just a legend."

"What, even civilizations capable of interstellar travel believe in these gods and ghosts?"

Chen Heng raised an eyebrow. He had seen too many individuals claiming to be gods; most were just more powerful beings.

So far, Chen Heng hadn't encountered an enemy he couldn't handle.

"It's not about believing in these gods and ghosts; it's just that some things that cannot be explained by science are collectively referred to as 'Gods.'"

As a resident of a mid-to-low-tier galaxy, Aiseya's understanding of the various forces in the Universe was still limited.

Only upon reaching the Void Zone would she be able to access a wealth of useful information.

"The Chaos Zone's current state is still terrible, with countless giant black holes, shattered space that means instant death upon contact, and those incomprehensible, eerie shadows."

"Of course, what I'm telling you now are all stories my mother told me when I was a child."

"After all, no one dares to explore the Chaos Zone, and even the Lords of the Celestial Regions refuse to speak about it."

"..." Chen Heng gazed at the splendid Universe outside the viewport. There was still so much unknown waiting for them to explore.

"By the way, have you ever heard of a galaxy called Earth, or the Solar System, or the Milky Way?"

Chen Heng suddenly remembered Liu Ye's original intention for interstellar travel: to go home and see it.

"Of course, there are too many places with those names in the entire Order Universe, but they are generally low-level civilizations."

"Do you want to visit a low-level civilization protection zone?"

"However, you need a permit to enter the protection zone; otherwise, it will be considered an invasion."

Aiseya nodded as a matter of course, but she didn't know why Chen Heng would be interested in those low-level civilizations.

"No hurry, maybe later when there's an opportunity."

Chen Heng shook his head. Trying to find his hometown among the vast number of Milky Ways and Solar Systems was simply a pipe dream.

This kind of thing would best be done later when his power had grown, by casting a wide net.

If he tried to find his hometown in this vast Universe by himself, it would be utterly ridiculous.

Well... not necessarily. If his control over the rules expanded to the entire Universe, he might be able to find it.

Alright, that idea was even more ridiculous than developing his own power. The Universe was constantly expanding; he would die of exhaustion before he could control the entire Universe.

Seeing that Chen Heng was no longer speaking, Aiseya continued to pilot the spaceship for the final few space warps... Chiling Star, Red City, Lower City District, Black Tree Block.

"What's wrong, you're still not convinced, are you?"

Qi Longhu, shirtless, single-handedly lifted a two-meter-tall burly man covered in prosthetics.

Around him lay a large group of his subordinates, their bones broken and tendons snapped.

"Who, who are you..." The burly man still couldn't understand. When did his tiny Gang, which couldn't be smaller, provoke such a monster?

His skin couldn't even be penetrated by heavy armor-piercing rounds, at most leaving a red mark.

His strength was also terrifying. The super-alloy steel exoskeleton on his body was directly crushed into scrap metal by this person.

This was military equipment he had bought in the black market for a full 130,000 points. He had planned to use this exoskeleton to annex several other small Gangs.

"When did our Hellhound Gang offend you?"

"You didn't offend us," Qi Longhu chuckled.

"Then why are you doing this to us!!!" As a tough man, the burly man's tears gushed out like a floodgate opening.

He didn't understand why such a monster would target their tiny Hellhound Gang.

"Wuwuwu, when did I offend you, why would you..."

"Of course, it's because we're interested in your territory." Before the burly man could continue crying, Xu Lieying walked over with a smile on his face.

Tying his hair back up, Xu Lieying sat down on the soft, large sofa.

"This thing is still comfortable to sit on..."

A few days ago, they moved into the apartment Ming Dian had prepared for them. The only difference between that cursed place and a sewer was that it had no water.

From the first day they moved in, the water was cut off and remained off until now.

Yes, there wasn't even water to flush the toilet, and Old Qi, that old geezer, ate a lot and pooped a lot.

The entire room was a scene of Hell on earth.

"Interested in our territory?" The burly man froze, even forgetting to cry.

Then, the burly man suddenly became agitated.

"Then you should have said so earlier! I would have just left, was it necessary to cripple all my men?"

"If you like this place, I'll give it to you. I can even give you the property deed directly. Why did you have to resort to violence?"

"?" Xu Lieying looked at Qi Longhu beside him, bewildered.

"Old Qi, didn't you say the people here weren't willing to give up this territory?"

"And you said they were all very arrogant, and immediately shot you in the face twice."

"Yes." Qi Longhu nodded. What he said was indeed true.

"When I came, I politely knocked on the door, but they didn't open it."

"I had no choice but to tear their front door open, and before I could even speak, they shot me in the face several times."

"That wasn't two shots; it was at least a dozen, and two of my nose hairs were broken."

"..." Listening to the conversation between Qi Longhu and Xu Lieying, Ming Dian and Lou Chao, who had been responsible for just watching from the back, fell silent.

They truly didn't understand why a person's strength could be so immense.

His skin was tougher than the strongest bulletproof vest, and a single punch had more power than a howitzer.

And there was the other old man with long hair; that old man's hair was even electrified, and it seemed the wattage wasn't low... Could these two guys be aliens?

Then were the two of them traitors to their planet?

"Old Qi is right; you guys are being ungrateful."

Xu Lieying was expected to say something nice, but this was what came out in the end.

"Do whatever you want. The property deed is in the safe. You'll never open it without my password."

"But it's simple if you want me to tell you the password, just let go of..."

Suddenly, the burly man felt the iron-clamp-like hand loosen, and he fell back to the ground.

"This thing?" Qi Longhu examined the all-metal safe, which was about as tall as him, and tapped it lightly twice.

"Just this little tin box?"

Qi Longhu couldn't help but laugh. This tin was less than half a meter thick; could it really stop him?

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a high-strength alloy safe. Without my password..."

Creak!!!!

A piercing screech rang out, and Qi Longhu's fingers tore open the safe as easily as if it were tofu.

"..." The burly man, seeing this scene, instantly deflated. He sat down on the ground, his face pale.

"How is this possible? This is a monster..."

"Old Xu, how do you use this thing?" Qi Longhu completely ignored the gold bars inside and took out the sealed property deed.

"How would I know? Aren't there two people who do?"

Xu Lieying pointed at Ming Dian and Lou Chao.

"Who? Me?" Ming Dian pointed at himself, a bit confused. How could a pauper like him know how to use a property deed?

"Forget it, who cares. Anyway, this place is my Five Spirits Gang Branch starting today."

Qi Longhu stuffed the property deed back into the safe and took out the gold bars inside.

Then he casually molded the safe back into shape like it was modeling clay. That was the job done.
