179: Because of the big shot's influence! A top-tier spaceship has been delivered right to their doorstep!
Seventh Reception Star.
Inside a luxury hotel.
Su Jue lay on the soft, large bed after taking a shower.
He didn't know that he had already become the focus of attention for the Temple's higher-ups.
Nor did he know what kind of earth-shattering secret was involved with the compass of destiny he had casually taken.
Right now, he only wanted to get a good night's sleep.
Then, he would wait for news from Feng Qingyang.
"Whew..."
Su Jue closed his eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Ling, inside the hat, was also sleeping soundly.
Only Capybara remained awake.
It lay by the window, looking out at the brilliant starry sky, while a line of text appeared on its Quantum Core screen.
[I have a feeling... something very incredible is about to happen...]
Its premonitions had never been wrong.
And this time... would be no exception... Early the next morning.
Su Jue was awakened by a knock at the door.
"Your Excellency! Your Excellency!"
Yun Xuan's anxious voice came from outside the door.
Su Jue rubbed his eyes, feeling a bit annoyed.
He hated being disturbed while sleeping.
"What is it?"
He asked in a milky, childish voice.
"Your Excellency, the Guardian Envoy requests your presence!"
Yun Xuan said respectfully.
"He says your recommendation letter is ready and asks you to come over!"
Upon hearing this, Su Jue immediately perked up.
So fast?
It seemed that old man's efficiency was quite high.
"Got it, I'm coming."
Su Jue climbed out of bed and casually grabbed a piece of clothing to put on.
It was still that animal onesie.
He couldn't help it; this was his only piece of clothing.
The others were kept in the dimensional universe, and he was too lazy to change.
"Boss, do you want me to follow?"
Capybara asked.
"You stay here,"
Su Jue said.
"I'll be back in a bit."
After saying that, he pushed open the door and walked out.
When Yun Xuan saw Su Jue, he immediately bowed.
"Your Excellency, please follow me."
"Mm."
Su Jue followed behind him and walked out.
Along the way.
Everyone who saw Su Jue immediately cleared the path and bowed with great respect.
Their level of respect was as if they were seeing a deity.
This made Su Jue a bit uncomfortable.
When he arrived yesterday, he didn't get this kind of treatment.
Back then, everyone was mocking him.
Now... every single one of them was like a sycophant.
Tsk.
Humans are so realistic.
Soon.
Yun Xuan led Su Jue to a palace floating in mid-air.
The entire palace was made of white jade, emitting a holy glow.
Countless profound Law patterns were engraved on the gate.
Just standing at the entrance, Su Jue could feel a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation.
"This is the Guardian Envoy's temporary palace,"
Yun Xuan explained in a low voice.
"On the entire Seventh Reception Star, only a few people are qualified to enter."
"To be invited is a supreme honor for Your Excellency..."
"Alright, alright, enough nonsense,"
Su Jue interrupted him.
"Lead the way."
"Yes!"
Yun Xuan didn't dare say more and respectfully pushed open the palace gates.
As the doors opened.
A dense, almost liquefied spiritual energy rushed toward them.
Su Jue took a deep breath, feeling his pores open up all over his body.
The concentration of this spiritual energy... was at least a hundred times that of the outside world!
Cultivating in this environment would surely yield twice the result with half the effort!
"As expected of a cultivation place for the peak of the Saint Realm..."
Su Jue thought to himself.
He followed Yun Xuan inside.
The interior of the palace was enormous.
Floating platforms and waterfalls were everywhere.
Countless glowing runes drifted in the air.
It was magnificent.
Soon.
The two arrived at the center of the hall.
Feng Qingyang was sitting cross-legged on a prayer mat, resting with his eyes closed.
Sensing Su Jue's arrival, he immediately opened his eyes and stood up with a face full of smiles.
"Your Excellency has arrived!"
His attitude was even more respectful than yesterday.
"Mm."
Su Jue nodded.
"Is the recommendation letter ready?"
"It's ready, it's ready!"
Feng Qingyang quickly took out a golden scroll.
"This is the recommendation letter written by my own hand, already stamped with the Guardian Envoy's seal."
"With this, Your Excellency can go directly to the headquarters without undergoing any assessment!"
Su Jue took the scroll and looked at it.
It was filled with praise for him in flamboyant calligraphy.
Terms like "rare in all ages," "unparalleled genius," and "blessing of the Temple"... anyway, it was all kinds of praise.
The praise made Su Jue feel a little embarrassed.
"Cough, it's well-written."
Su Jue put away the scroll.
"Then I'll be leaving now."
"Wait!"
Feng Qingyang suddenly called out to him.
"Your Excellency, I have one more request."
"Speak."
"It's like this..."
Feng Qingyang rubbed his hands together, looking a bit embarrassed.
"After Your Excellency goes to the headquarters, if you encounter any difficulties..."
"Could you mention my name?"
He wanted to cling to a powerful connection!
Su Jue was a Dragon Clan Prince with a terrifyingly deep background.
If he could latch onto this relationship... it would definitely be of great benefit to his future development in the Temple!
Su Jue looked at his expectant eyes and nodded.
"Fine."
"Thank you, Your Excellency! Thank you, Your Excellency!"
Feng Qingyang was overjoyed and bowed repeatedly.
"By the way, I have already prepared an interstellar spaceship for Your Excellency."
"It is the Temple's specially made holy light; it's extremely fast and equipped with a spatial jump function!"
"From here to the headquarters, it will take three days at most!"
Su Jue raised an eyebrow.
Three days?
So fast?
He thought it would take a month or so.
"Then, thank you."
"You're welcome, you're welcome! This is all what I should do!"
Feng Qingyang smiled flatteringly.
"Also, Yun Xuan will accompany Your Excellency throughout the journey. Feel free to instruct him if you need anything!"
Su Jue nodded, turned around, and left.
Yun Xuan quickly followed.
After the two had gone far.
Feng Qingyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had finally sent off this great deity... no!
It was an honorable send-off!
It was an honor!
He immediately adjusted his mindset, a smile hanging on his face once again.
In this deal, he made a huge profit!
An absolute profit!
...Outside the palace.
A thousand-meter-long, silver-white interstellar spaceship was quietly floating.
Countless Law patterns were inscribed on the ship's surface, emitting a faint holy light.
Just looking at it gave off a high-end feel.
"Your Excellency, this is the holy light."
Yun Xuan introduced.
"It is the flagship of the Temple's Seventh Branch. Usually, only the Guardian Envoy can use it."
"Today, it was specially dispatched to pick you up!"
Su Jue sized up the spaceship.
It was quite impressive.
"How fast can it go?"
"Reporting to Your Excellency, the holy light's cruising speed can reach ten times the speed of light!"
Yun Xuan said proudly.
"And it's equipped with the most advanced spatial jump engine, allowing for short-distance spatial jumps!"
"From here to the headquarters, it will take three days at most!"
Su Jue nodded noncommittally.
Not bad.
"Then let's go."
"Yes!"
Yun Xuan led the way.
The hatch slowly opened, extending a golden staircase.
Su Jue, holding Ling, stepped onto the stairs and walked inside.
The interior of the spaceship was even more luxurious.
Soft sofas and floating holographic screens were everywhere.
A faint fragrance wafted through the air.
There were even dedicated cultivation rooms and training grounds!
It was practically a mobile luxury palace!
