499 Lightning Immortal Transformation! (1/2)

With the arrangements made by Feng Qiuran, the Federation Seedlings didn't have the chance to communicate their thoughts with one another before they were brought away by Feng Qiuran's subordinates. Everyone was given a Vast Expanse Dao Palace Daoist robe, as well as information and a map of the sect. As they were each brought away, only Wang Baole remained in the peak of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. Feng Qiuran seemed to have other plans and didn't immediately assign a place for Wang Baole to go. Instead, she had her disciples bring Wang Baole into the suite of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.

The Vast Expanse Dao Palace was vast and had many suites. However, they were usually unoccupied. Typically, only returning disciples from the outer islands would stay in them for several days.

Therefore, it was very quiet when Wang Baole was being led into the region where the suites were. Only a few Vast Expanse Dao Palace disciples were seen occasionally.

Regardless of whether it was the people who brought him there or the Vast Expanse Dao Palace disciples in the region where the suites were, they all viewed Wang Baole—the cultivator from Earth's Federation—with contempt, despite not showing it on their faces. Compared to the sheltered disciples who had spent their entire lives cultivating on the ancient greenish-bronze sword, Wang Baole's profile and experience far surpassed the, even if it might be too much of an exaggeration to call him a sly fox.

Therefore, Wang Baole could sense the contempt in their hearts very clearly.

These weaklings. If we were to really fight, I could easily terminate tens of them! Wang Baole snorted in his heart and didn't pay further attention to them. After returning to his assigned suite, he immediately took out the regional Spirit Internet jade slip given to him by Duan Muque and contacted Zhuo Yifan and the others.

The regional Spirit Internet jade slip was indeed miraculous. It also worked the way Duan Muque had described, allowing the Federation Seedlings to use it on the ancient greenish-bronze sword. Put simply, it had two functions. One was to send an intended recipient a voice transmission, and the other was to allow a chat group to be established. Right now, as Wang Baole opened up the jade slip, many others were already conversing with each other.

Most of them were talking about the islands they had been sent to, while some of them were still on the way to their assigned islands that were further away. In addition, as they had just arrived, most of them were nervous and agitated. Therefore, the group chats were refreshed quickly.

At the same time, some people were researching the so-called Vast Expanse Skill. In the group chat, they seemed to be surprised by the cultivation technique. Soon, with an increasing number of people researching the cultivation technique, discussions of the Vast Expanse Skill became the hottest topic.

Looking at everyone discussing the new cultivation technique, Wang Baole also grew anxious.

Everyone has a cultivation technique. If someone is quick to send it back, wouldn't I fall behind?

However, sending it back requires a thousand battle credits, and it's not certain how easy it would be to obtain these thousand battle credits… It shouldn't be easy… With that thought, Wang Baole felt assured. He then planned to go to the so-called Vast Expanse Techniques Chamber to find a cultivation technique that would be suitable for him.

However, before that, there were more important matters to do. With a look of determination, Wang Baole took a deep breath, and after hesitating for a while with the jade slip in his hand, he sent a voice transmission to Zhao Yameng.

”Yameng, are you there…?”

”Speak!” Before long, Zhao Yameng's peaceful voice emerged from the jade slip.

”Haha, the weather is great today, right? So… Your mother is the Martian Colony Governor?” Despite having asked that question before, Wang Baole was still very shocked by it and instinctively raised the question again.

”What's the matter? You don't approve of it?” A hint of sharpness could be sensed in Zhao Yameng's calm tone.

Hearing the slight hostility in Zhao Yameng's voice, Wang Baole instantly felt troubled. In reality, when he was on Mercury, he had already felt that something was amiss. Now, as he found out about Zhao Yameng's background, he felt guilty. Therefore, he took a deep breath and spoke gently into the jade slip.

”Yameng, I have to thank you for all the years I have spent on Mars…”

Hearing that sentence, Zhao Yameng fell silent. After a brief moment, she seemed to have calmed down, but what she said next still made Wang Baole's heart skip a beat.

”Other than me, you should also thank Li Wan'er, don't you think?” With that, Zhao Yameng hung up the voice transmission.

”Huh?” Wang Baole widened his eyes. After a long while, he slapped himself on the forehead and let out a long sigh. In reality, the very moment he found out that the Martian Colony Governor was Zhao Yameng's mother, he had a gut feeling that despite the fact that the relationship between him and Li Wan'er was secretive, it was unlikely that it would remain unknown to the Martian Colony Governor.
