890 A Deal (1/2)
The room itself was larger than he expected to the point he believed he could make a small city with this garden alone. All different types of herbs were here, starting from Rank 1 to Rank 9.
This was something surprising to Alex because this was the first time he saw a garden this big. Even the one he saw in Zwaka's palace was not this big.
He found a note on the floor, and he realized it was everything about the herbs in this place, including how to harvest all these herbs. He even found the two other ingredients he needed for White Ash Pill.
Due to the size of this garden, it took him three days to carefully store them away.
After that, he checked his Inventory again to check everything before leaving the garden.
”This will surely boost everyone's strength.” Alex nodded and looked at the second and third groups. ”Because he is no more, I can easily open the door for each gate, but I am not someone who can easily break promises, especially to myself. It might be foolish because I can get stronger faster, it is a matter of principle.”
Alex shook his head and bowed his head to the five doors as if he was thanking them… No, the one who built them.
He then returned to the surface with the teleportation array and wiped the table and chairs clean. He smiled and left the tower.
Before jumping out of this world, he took another look at the temple and said, ”Goodbye and thank you.”
Alex teleported to outer space before he found himself in a dilemma.
To the north, he would be able to find Earth and return for a few days or a month. But to his surprise, he had no expectation or desire to go there. Instead, he only wished to return to Eulja as soon as possible.
He ended up shaking his head before using the sense in his head to search for a black hole.
Experiencing all the things he saw in the black hole, he finally returned to the original galaxy.
And the first thing that greeted him was the notification from the system.
[I can finally reach you.]
”Ah, yes. I am sorry. It's been a year since I first went to the black hole.” Alex scratched the back of his head.
[Yes. I don't know why, but you feel different.]
”Ahaha… Don't ask.” Alex let out a hollow laugh as if he wanted to hide the fact that he used ten years to cultivate in that place. Although the room affected the time, he still aged for another year during the time inside that room.
Lin Xingzhi must feel the difference because Alex had undergone numerous changes during that time, including when he received the memory of the last fight.
”Anyway, I think it is time to go to that world, so I can refine my bones.”
[Indeed. Please return to Eulja first, so we can go there together.]
”Sure. I want you to tell me about what happened during this whole time, alright?”
”Alright.”
Alex then immediately used his Teleportation Array to send him to Eulja. Unlike the previous time where he used the teleportation formation in Eulja, he needed a longer time to reach Eulja.
”Finally, I have returned.” Alex smiled as he watched the Eulja from outer space. As soon as he entered the planet, he was greeted by Lin Xingzhi, who had been expecting him to reach sooner or later.
This time, she wore a long white dress tied with a black ribbon on her waist.
”How are the others?”
She nodded and stretched her hand. ”We will talk on the way.”
Alex nodded.
…
A year ago, not long after Alex went to Encore, the Blackwade Clan was surprised by the appearance of a God King, the Palm God.
Luckily, Song Tao had received information from Lin Xingzhi about their appearance, allowing him to handle the situation the way he wanted to.
When he arrived, Song Tao immediately asked this father and daughter duo to come to his office to talk.
The atmosphere turned tense when Song Tao and the Palm God, Kubard.
”So… Do you have that much free time to come here?” He narrowed his eyes. ”There will be many implications if you are staying for too long on this planet. As you know, my clan is just a merchant, so we take a neutral stance.”
”Hoh? Did you say that after considering your relationship with Eulja?”
The two glared at each other.
The self-proclaimed rival had been following the information about Eulja and Blackwade Clan, so he obviously knew more than one would expect. This was normal though, considering he had been chasing Alex for a long time.
”I also have known about the fact that the two of you have been contacting each other. Haha… I have sent most of my spies here after all. Don't try to trick me, you old fox.”
”As expected from the famous stalker.” Song Tao snorted. This was not the first time he visited him, so he also knew about his suspicion about Eulja.
”Say, how much do I need to buy the information about my rival, Alexander Sirius's reincarnation?”
”I don't sell that information because I don't have one.”
”Don't joke around. I have visited Eulja earlier and found out that Lin Xingzhi has gone somewhere far away.”
Song Tao narrowed his eyes. This was exactly their plan. However, he decided to make it look like he didn't want to give the information so as to make it more believable.
”I have said this, and I will say it again and again. I don't have any information regarding that.”
