179: Chapter 179 The bustling central city, Lord Blue Star!

The scene quickly shifted.

Li Fan immediately arrived in this Silver Dragon City.

He looked up.

The architecture was vastly different, the styles numerous, and the flying machines were countless. While it was full of technology, one could also clearly sense a strong cultivation atmosphere.

Of course.

What was even more eye-catching were the people walking everywhere on the streets.

Cat-eared girls, Elves, giants with shark heads, people half flesh and half mechanical splicing... all sorts of bizarre appearances existed.

Normal people like him were actually the minority.

"Although Silver Dragon Central City is a city dominated by humans, many other races also come here to live."

"However, we are currently in the virtual network. The images you see before you might not be their real-life appearances; they are for reference only."

Skin Bear began his introduction at this moment.

Li Fan nodded, "I see."

He had been wondering why, since he heard the Silver Dragon Federation was primarily human, the central city streets were full of other races.

Immediately after, out of safety concerns, Li Fan changed his appearance.

However, Li Fan had no particular preference, such as turning into a beast-eared girl or a Goblin.

His appearance remained human, only his features changed, appearing on the surface as a middle-aged man.

Next.

Li Fan started heading towards the bank while learning about this Silver Dragon Central City.

Silver Dragon Central City was enormous. The different districts were very far apart, and reaching them required passing through artificial wormholes.

However, since they were in the virtual network now.

Most public areas could be reached with just a thought.

Li Fan could also instantly arrive at the bank, but since it was his first time here, he was quite curious.

And on the streets.

Besides seeing many technologies he had never encountered and shops selling all sorts of strange items, Li Fan also saw many martial arts gyms and dueling arenas dedicated to teaching cultivation.

Of course, there were also some entertainment venues.

"Handsome guy, want to come in and take a look? Our online store only provides services in the virtual network. We have everything you want..."

As Li Fan passed by a doorway, he was stopped by a cat-eared girl, who immediately sent a friend request.

Regarding this.

Li Fan quickly refused.

First, he was a married man, and the education he received since childhood did not allow him to do such a thing.

Furthermore.

In the virtual network, appearances could be freely customized.

No one knew whether the other person was human or a ghost in reality.

"If I had enough money, this Silver Dragon Central City would be quite suitable for my cultivation."

"It would probably be great if I could bring Mom, Dad, and Lingling over to live here too."

After touring around a bit, Li Fan couldn't help but murmur quietly.

In the Central City, he could find almost all the cultivation resources he needed, and with patrol teams everywhere, security was also very guaranteed.

If he brought his family over, their cultivation speed could also become much faster, and their lives would be more convenient.

The only drawback was that the prices were not very satisfactory.

According to Skin Bear.

The original owner of the Dark Star only had about 1.8 billion cosmic coins across those few cards.

Paying the registration fee for Blue Star would cost about 1 billion.

The remaining 800 million, although it sounded huge.

In the Central City, the monthly rent for an ordinary house started at 100 million, making it unaffordable for ordinary people to live there long-term.

On the streets of the real Central City, the crowds were far fewer than in the virtual network, and permanent residents were extremely rare. Only the wealthy from various planets could reside here.

Most ordinary people still lived on their home planets or on Federation planets with lower living costs.

Therefore, to obtain better resources and cultivation conditions, Li Fan still needed to figure out a way to make money.

After turning around twice more.

Li Fan stopped wasting time and used instant teleportation to arrive outside the bank.

After successfully withdrawing 1.8 billion cosmic coins and transferring them to his personal card, Li Fan arrived at the Silver Dragon Federation Civilization Registration Office.

"Name, race."

"Li Fan, Human."

"Target planet."

"Blue Star."

"Please wait a moment, we will locate the coordinates of the planet you mentioned..."

...

"Mr. Li Fan, you have successfully completed the registration. You are now the Lord of Blue Star."

"The Silver Dragon Federation will travel to the region where Blue Star is located at the fastest speed to dispatch five Federation Guards for you, open access to the virtual network with cosmic permissions, and issue a copy of the 'Cosmic Basic Cultivation Method' for the entire population to practice."

"Your citizens will have their entry and exit from Blue Star marked with the Blue Star identifier."

...

The entire process was very fast.

The attitude of the staff handling the registration was also very good.

The moment Li Fan became the Lord of Blue Star, an invisible bond instantly formed between him and Blue Star.

This feeling was hard to describe.

But it was marvelous.

There was an indescribable sense of ownership and control.

After completing all this.

Li Fan withdrew from the virtual network.

For now.

The matter of Blue Star's security had been handled.

Next, he needed to take care of two things.

One was to increase his strength to obtain an invitation letter for the inheritance pagoda, for participating in the Inheritance Competition later.

The other was to work with Jia Yan to wipe out that Black Abyss Star Pirate Group and make a fortune!

And the fastest way to achieve this now.

Was clearly the latter.

The former could be done slowly during that process.

Thus, Li Fan directly left seclusion and went to Li Daguo's place.

...

"What? Xiaofan, you've already become the Lord of Blue Star, and the Silver Dragon Federation will send people over immediately?"

"Our Blue Star can connect to the cosmic servers right away?"

In the room.

Li Daguo and Huang Lan were both utterly astonished as they listened to Li Fan's explanation.

That's right.

Li Fan confessed some things to parents, but he didn't mention the Dark Star, instead substituting it with the phrase "some fortuitous encounters."

He needed to interrogate Jia Yan, and later had to take Jia Yan to find the Black Abyss Star Pirate Group. Moreover, the Silver Dragon Federation would also send people. During this process, it was inevitable that some information would be exposed.

Instead of letting parents speculate.

It was better to proactively reveal some news.

And since parents were his closest relatives, he didn't have too many concerns about telling them this information.

After all, his trump card wasn't the so-called fortuitous encounter, but his Annihilation Eye.

As long as the Annihilation Eye wasn't exposed, everything would be fine.

"Yes, we should receive news in a few days,"

Li Fan said with a smile.

Hearing Li Fan's affirmative words.

parents were extremely excited.

Their worries had unexpectedly been solved by their son.

They actually didn't care much about what kind of fortuitous encounter Li Fan used to go to the Federation for registration and even become a Star Lord.

They only cared that Li Fan had obtained a fortuitous encounter and once again saved Blue Star.

As for anything else, they would not inquire further.

The happier their son became, the happier parents were.

"By the way, Dad, Mom, I want to go see this Jia Yan. I have something I need to ask him about."

Li Fan shifted the topic to Jia Yan at this moment.

To avoid worrying parents, he did not reveal anything about the Black Abyss Star Pirate Group, nor did he reveal that Jia Yan was a Cosmic Star Pirate.

As for Li Fan's request.

Li Daguo hesitated for a moment, then readily agreed.

"Okay."

"But I'll go with you. This person is very strange, and the aura around him keeps rising. I'm afraid he might hurt you."
