603: King of Rags

"Princess, I'm not joking with you. That person is extremely dangerous. It's best to stay away from him."

The man was a bit helpless. This was the Void Emperor's daughter. Speaking too softly, she wouldn't listen; speaking too harshly would be overstepping. She was too difficult to serve.

"You need to understand that aside from your endless lifespan and immortal characteristic, you have virtually no Aptitude in combat or psionic abilities."

"In front of such an existence, which could be called evil, you are the best tonic. Contacting him rashly will bring no benefit whatsoever."

"Evil?" The Princess turned her head in confusion, looking at the man in heavy power armor with a puzzled expression.

"But I think he's alright. He just has a somewhat unlikable personality."

"But..." The man wanted to say more but thought better of it and closed his mouth.

His mission was to protect the Princess, not to control her actions.

"I still stand by my opinion. You'd best not continue to contact that evil existence."

"I cannot guarantee that I can hold out against him long enough for you to open the escape channel. I cannot even guarantee a microsecond."

"If you insist on continuing to contact that existence, I will seek the assistance of the Imperial Guard."

"I believe the Void Imperial Guard can successfully eliminate that existence before it poses a threat to you."

"Alright, I was waiting for you to say that." The Princess smiled. She also knew how dangerous Chen Heng was.

Chen Heng's unrestrained release of Devilish Qi and Evil Qi had already been noticed by the high-ranking officials of the Void Zone, otherwise the Princess wouldn't have been interested in Chen Heng.

"I understand. I will notify the Void Imperial Guard to come and provide you with protection."

The man breathed a sigh of relief. Accompanying the Princess out to play was already an extremely risky matter. If the higher-ups found out, he would not only lose his position but his life would also be in jeopardy.

But by bringing this matter into the open, his responsibility could be infinitely reduced.

After all, no one could defy the Princess's wishes, except for the Void Emperor.

"He's really strong. If possible, I really want to recruit him into the Star Hunter Legion."

The Princess murmured to herself. As the Void Emperor's daughter, she was naturally not some naive girl; everything she did had a purpose.

She herself had no combat ability, relying solely on the treasures given to her by the Void Emperor for self-preservation.

Her only abilities were an endless lifespan and the characteristic called 'immortality'.

These two characteristics ensured that the Princess would never have to worry about death, but they were also a constraint.

The daughter of a Lord of the Celestial Region who was defenseless and possessed the characteristic of immortality—this was simply the highest grade of Materials.

If her father hadn't been the Void Emperor, the Princess would have long since been torn apart by various factions.

"Let's go. Accompany me to the Sky Ruins Hot Springs for some fun. It's been a long time since I've soaked in a hot spring."

The Princess stretched, her almost perfect body curves exuding infinite charm.

"Understood, my subordinate." The man nodded. It was good to be away from that existence before the Void Imperial Guard arrived.

The pressure Chen Heng brought upon him was simply too great. Even the Galaxy-level Overlords in the Void Zone didn't exert such immense pressure.

He was confident he could survive against those Galaxy-level Overlords for ten minutes, but facing Chen Heng, he had no confidence of lasting even a second.

The mere aura he emitted was already terrifying, let alone a direct confrontation with him.

Only the three legions personally managed by the Emperor might have the possibility and the qualification to contend with that existence, right?

"When did such a powerful individual appear in the Void Zone? Why isn't he staying in his own galaxy? Isn't he afraid of his home being raided...?"

The man was quite troubled now. Such suddenly appearing powerhouses were the most difficult to deal with because their true background was completely unknown.

"I hope nothing goes wrong..."

Sighing, the man opened a passage and followed behind the Princess... After a round of shopping, Bai Jun and Luo Shuo both bought a large pile of things that looked like junk.

If it weren't for these two guys having Heaven-Defying luck, Chen Heng would have wanted to pry open their heads to see what was inside.

"So, what's so special about all this junk you picked out?"

Even Chen Heng couldn't help but suspect that the few items Bai Jun and Luo Shuo bought were genuinely junk.

"We don't know either. It just felt like these things had a connection with me..."

Bai Jun scratched his head. This feeling was very strange; he couldn't describe exactly what it was like.

It was as if something was guiding him to acquire this item, just like the feeling he had when he first met Chen Heng.

"Alright..."

Chen Heng sighed. This kind of thing really couldn't be explained in words.

"So, should we first check what these things actually are, or go to the Senluo Chamber of Commerce first?"

Luo Shuo turned to look at Chen Heng while tidying up his junk.

"No rush. The Void Emperors Treasury won't open for another twenty-five hours. Let's first see what use your junk has."

Chen Heng roughly estimated the time. Twelve hours had already passed since they landed.

"Then it's settled. I feel like everything I bought is a treasure..."

With that, the group boarded the vermilion bird ship and flew towards the residence they had booked earlier... Soon, the group returned to their booked residence, a resort villa operated by the Dark Spirit Galaxy.

With Isaiah leading the way, Chen Heng and the others were able to check in quite smoothly.

"It seems your status in the Dark Spirit Galaxy isn't low."

Chen Heng looked at Isaiah beside him with some surprise. Does such a noob have such a high status?

"I'm actually considered quite strong in the Dark Spirit Galaxy..."

Isaiah grumbled unhappily.

Chen Heng naturally heard it clearly, but he paid no attention.

Taking the shuttle provided by the villa, the group returned to the manor prepared for them.

"Come, come, come, look at mine first!"

As soon as they were back indoors, Luo Shuo eagerly took out the junk he had acquired.

There were four items in total: a piece of Ore, a small knife that looked like a fruit knife, a strange bottle containing an unknown liquid, and a crooked, rotten tree root.

"And then? These four pieces of junk cost me over a hundred void gold?"

Chen Heng raised an eyebrow. Although Luo Shuo didn't buy many things, he spent a lot.

Bai Jun's six items cost less than a hundred void gold, while Luo Shuo's four items cost over one hundred thirty.

However, buying four items from street vendors who often priced individual items at one or two hundred wasn't too expensive.

"Don't worry, these are definitely good things."

Luo Shuo patted his chest vigorously, looking full of confidence.
