176: Internal affairs

Noticing Qingyang's gaze, Qingtian slowly nodded, then led Qingyang away from the mine.

At the foot of the grey mountain, Qingtian looked at Qingyang's perfect evolutionary path and said softly, "To be honest, Emperor Yao has been living on Blue Star with your companion for several years."

I believe you've also discussed the current situation on the Blue Star Surface with Maomao. Overall, it's not satisfactory; resources are insufficient. So this time you return to Blue Star, you might need endless slaughter for your companions to successfully advance to the sixteenth tier.

Additionally, there's another matter, and that's bone replacement. The bones in your original body on Blue Star can no longer compare to the bones in this body in the Inner Realm.

Having your entire skeletal structure replaced is a pain that ordinary people find hard to bear. Be prepared."

After saying this, Qingtian had already turned around and returned to the mine.

As for Qingyang, he stood under the grey sky and said softly, "The zhen crystal in the Inner Realm, any Precious Crystal Spring Mine possesses so many resources.

The treasured crystal storms that appear each time are even more endless. The Blue Star Surface is still lacking resources now, alas!"

The news of Qingyang's imminent return to Blue Star had become known to everyone.

So on this day, Qingyang specifically called everyone together and looked at them, saying softly, "Bei Guan City, Five Ore Vein."

This will be your foundation for survival for the next few years. Try not to cause trouble and just develop peacefully. Maomao has already told me about the situation on Blue Star. In as little as five years,

and at most twenty years, I will lead the other companions down completely. By then, I will naturally find you to reunite.

Furthermore, if something truly irreversible happens, then head to Yunding Palace. That is our last territory."

Now, Blood Dragon, Maomao, and the others' strength had reached the fourteenth tier. Let alone the position of Gatekeeper, they could even contend for Enforcer, but Qingyang did not choose to let everyone do so.

The reason was also very simple: to hide their Edge (sharpness/edge).

It's worth mentioning that although Qingyang's current skeletal structure's light is contained, as long as he is around, everyone's strength improvement still has a double effect.

So in the following two months, Qingyang began to fully assist Jin Sheng and Hong Zong in breaking through.

...

The underground cave specifically sought out by Maomao's little brothers, covering a thousand meters, had been tidied up by numerous little Treasure Seeking Rats.

On this day, after bidding farewell to everyone one by one, Qingyang and Qingtian came to this underground cave known only to Maomao.

Qingtian had already begun to carve more complex patterns, preparing for Qingyang's final return to Blue Star for bone replacement.

According to Qingtian, bone replacement is a very long and painful process, mainly depending on Qingyang's endurance.

When the largest, most complex mysterious rune was completed in the center of the huge cave, Qingyang also slowly lay down in the center of the rune and looked up at the stalactites above.

It seemed as if his gaze pierced through the ground, looking towards Blue Star, and he said softly.

"Blue Star, I'm back."

...

Blue Star, Ge Xing Islands, West Island.

At this moment, Ba Qing was trading with a fourteenth-tier initial stage Beast King from the United States before him.

"This batch of goods is of good quality. Name a price," Ba Qing said, staring at the giant eagle with tiger-like eyes.

"Two hundred thousand zhen crystal, no negotiation. This is our first cooperation with the number one forbidden area force on Blue Star, and I hope we can continue to cooperate."

Hearing the giant eagle's words, a trace of undetectable killing intent flashed in Ba Qing's eyes.

"Three hundred thousand."

As soon as he said this, the giant eagle immediately paused, as if it hadn't heard Ba Qing clearly.

"Four hundred thousand."

The energy around Ba Qing was becoming increasingly turbulent.

"Five hundred thousand."

From East Island and South Island, Golden Pixiu and Little Luan's fourteenth-tier auras simultaneously swept over towards this direction.

At this moment, the giant eagle finally understood Ba Qing's meaning, and the hair on its entire body stood on end.

"Six hundred thousand."

"Deal, deal." As it spoke, the giant eagle quickly spat out six hundred thousand zhen crystal from its cheek pouch and turned to flee.

Watching the opponent's wings spread as it left, Ba Qing said coldly, "Black Bat King, I'll collect some interest first. Regarding Maomao's death, none of you in the United States can escape responsibility."

These years, Black Gold Yang Dragon King had consistently stayed in seclusion, and all forces on Blue Star wanted to know what level the true king of the Ge Xing Islands had grown to.

However, no matter how the various forces investigated, they could never get past Ba Qing, Little Luan, Golden Pixiu, and Xuan Ming.

Therefore, the strength of Black Gold Yang Dragon King had always been a mystery.

As the giant eagle quickly left, Little Luan and Golden Pixiu quickly arrived at West Island.

"Speaking of which, your way of trading makes it easy to lose friends. You gave away so much Fierce Beast meat, and then you extorted six hundred thousand," Golden Pixiu said speechlessly to Ba Qing.

Beside him, Little Luan also couldn't help but nod, expressing agreement with Golden Pixiu's words.

"Friends, it's enough that we are friends. As for other forces, hmph~" Ba Qing said domineeringly.

Just then, on the mountaintop of the Ge Xing Islands' core island, a surge of energy suddenly exploded like a nuclear bomb.

Sensing this situation, Ba Qing, Little Luan, and Golden Pixiu simultaneously turned to look towards the core.

"It's Qing Yang, let's go."

On the mountaintop of the Ge Xing Islands' core island.

At this moment, Qingyang, who had been mostly inactive for many years, suddenly emitted streams of ten-colored light, like rays, from inside his black-gold body.

These ten-colored lights shot out wildly from the gaps in Qingyang's black-gold scales all over his body, enveloping the entire mountaintop in color.

Shen Ying and Qian Hao had been deliberately sent away by Emperor Yao to the Zhouguang Special Zone.

So when Ba Qing and the others sensed this aura and arrived, Emperor Yao also completely stopped disguising himself, his body emitting black and white lights like a Taiji symbol, and he spoke to the Divine Beasts.

"Qingyang is about to return and needs the most stable fusion and transformation. During this period, I hope no creature appears on the Ge Xing Islands except for you."

Regarding this old man who called himself Qing Yao and Qingyang's grandfather, the Divine Beasts originally thought he was just an ordinary person.

But today, the aura emanating from him made even the strongest Ba Qing feel a faint sense of fear.

Without time to think further, the Divine Beasts also knew that everything now was for Qingyang's sake. So after exchanging glances, the Divine Beasts immediately flew to the outer islands, directly imposing a twenty-thousand-mile sea area lockdown centered on the Ge Xing Islands.

The Ge Xing Islands, as the number one forbidden area and the most mysterious forbidden area on Blue Star, any disturbance here constantly affects all forces on Blue Star.

Immediately, as the Ge Xing Islands went into lockdown, all forces turned their gaze towards the area, wondering what was happening there.
