A small spacecraft 100 meters in length was compressed to a diameter of one centimeter! Such terrifying power…

That… that’s too strong?
Even Li Xuancheng was stunned. As a master who had spent his life in the martial arts, Li Xuancheng naturally understood what Levis’ ability represented!

Levis,
Li Xuancheng hurriedly asked,
what’s the biggest object your ability currently allows you to compress?

Levis carefully thought for a while.
With my current ability, the biggest compressible object will be around ten kilometers in diameter. If my base strength continues to increase, the size of the object will grow bigger as well.

A diameter of ten kilometers!


Li Xuancheng inhaled deeply. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled wryly.
That’s seriously terrifying. Do you have any idea? If your ability continues to develop, you may be able to even create a miniature black hole!

Yes, Li Xuancheng was not wrong.
Black holes were caused by the gravitational collapse of stars of sufficient mass after their nuclear fusion reaction fuel was exhausted and considered
dead
. The mass of a black hole was extremely huge, but its volume was very small. The gravitational field it could produce would be so strong that any matter and radiation could no longer escape once they entered the event horizon of a black hole.
In other words, once Levis became powerful enough, he could compress giant objects into tiny spaces. That matched the concept of a black hole—a huge mass in a small volume.
Hence, it was no wonder Li Xuancheng was so shocked.

Hehe, Big Bro Levis, your ability is amazingly awesome!
Hong Dali rushed to Levis’s side and laughed.
How do you feel? Is it as if your strength has been elevated to a whole new level?


Of course.
Levis smiled.
From now on, I’ll have greater strength to protect you.

Levis really treated Hong Dali as his most beloved and cutest younger brother now. He really liked Hong Dali’s personality. Hence, he was over the moon to find that he could elevate his strength.
Li Tianxing was completely stunned.
He thought that his Ice Soul Stone was powerful enough. In the end, he did not expect that this Gravity Soul Stone, given as a gift, was even more terrifying!


Of course, this was not important anymore—the Soul Stone was already gifted and fused with Levis. What could regret do for him?
Now that Levis successfully fused with his Soul Stone, it was Blood Demon’s turn.
To be honest, Hong Dali did not have too many interactions with Blood Demon. However, that did not prevent Hong Dali from treating Blood Demon as a lackey… oh wait, as a good friend. Hm, anyways, he was someone Hong Dali could groom.
This time, everyone’s eyes were focused on Blood Demon.

Then, I’ll begin?
The Blood Demon was really excited after witnessing what Levis did. What magical effects did his Soul Stone contain?
The process was the same as Levis’. Blood Demon also lightly cut his finger. Soon, the Soul Stone disappeared into the wound.
Everyone held their breath.

Hehe, looks like my ability is pretty decent too.
The Blood Demon’s demonstration was much simpler—his entire arm wriggled and turned into moving, dried tree branches.
The dried tree branches looked extremely sharp as if they were spears. By visuals alone, one could imagine the power of this Soul Stone.

It’s the Wood Soul Stone.
The Blood Demon looked at the walls in the distance and extended his fingers. Instantly, his fingers transformed into extremely long branches that penetrated the wall in the blink of an eye.



Hehe, it’ll be much easier now to kill people.
Blood Demon was very satisfied with his ability.
Tears flooded Li Tianxing’s face.
Hong Dali acquired two terrifying assistants in an instant. What could he do in the future? He would have no chance of getting his revenge, right?

Hehe, Dali, congratulations. Both these Soul Stones carry powerful abilities.
Li Xuancheng knew that it was too late to take back the stones now. However, he was still on amicable terms with Hong Dali right now. Since he gave the items as gifts, Hong Dali owed him one now. Hence, he was decisive.
Once you reach the Faerie Star in a few days, remember to send the Green Phoenix my greetings.

This kind of chit chat was pleasant to listen to.
Most importantly, Hong Dali was not a murderous person. He was willing to give Li Xuancheng the easy way out. Hence, he smiled and said,
Okay, understood. I’ll say hi to Sister Green Bird for you.

Things concluded at this stage. Li Xuancheng received his Health gem and Hong Dali received two Soul Stones, a bunch of rare items, and a humble apology from Li Tianxing. This was a meaningful exchange. Everyone was happy.
After they bid Hong Dali farewell, Li Tianxing almost cried on the way back to their temporary mansion in Shenluo City.
He could not understand why Hong Dali received all the benefits. Why did he, who was born from royalty, ended up in such a horrible situation?

Grandpa.
Li Tianxing was deeply upset.
If only we didn’t give him the two Soul Stones. Such powerful abilities…




Sigh, Tianxing…
Li Xuancheng helplessly shook his head. He patted Li Tianxing’s head and sighed.
You’ve had it too easy, so you can’t take a loss. This isn’t a good thing for your future development.


But, but I just can’t let it go!
Li Tianxing gritted his teeth in anger.
Why should Hong Dali get all the benefits?


If you can’t take a beating, you won’t get the benefits. Do you still fail to understand that?
Li Xuancheng said gently,
Fights based on your emotions are the most meaningless things. When I was still at the Dimu Star Sector back in the days, did I not swallow my tongue and suck up to others? There’s a saying ‘a person cannot beat the circumstance’. Previously, you were at an advantageous position against Hong Dali, yet you did not gain any benefits. Now, he’s the almighty genius and a person that the Dimu Star Sector will bring back to nurture. Once he emerges again, he’ll definitely become a governor, perhaps even the ruler of our entire Milky Way. So what if we gave him two Soul Stones? Often times, relationships are much more valuable than ordinary items.

What Li Xuancheng said did indeed make sense.
This was like the corporate world. Why did so many huge merchants fight to cozy up to some powerful officials? Why did they invest tens of millions of yuan just to build their personal social networks?
Their objective was for their future development. Once they were on good terms with the officials, one word from them could be worth tens or hundreds of millions worth of income. For instance, when Hong Dali first bought land on Earth, Hong Weiguo was on good terms with the Tianjing City mayor. One sentence worth of leaked information from him resulted in a profit of over a billion yuan.
That was the importance of relationships.

Think about it, you were on such a thin rope with Hong Dali previously.
Li Xuancheng smiled and said,
If you didn’t make up with him, one word from him in the Dimu Star Sector and you would be dead. Why cause trouble for yourself? Even if you lose something small now to exchange for your safety in the future, it’ll still be worth it.


Hm, that’s true.
Li Hanhong nodded.
The good thing about Hong Dali is that he doesn’t hold grudges. As long as he’s not too angry today, he probably won’t cause trouble for you in the future.


Ok.. okay.
After hearing what his father and grandfather said, Li Tianxing finally understood.
As… as long as he leaves me alone in the future. Sigh…



…
On the other side, inside the St. Homburg Grand Hotel on the eighth floor.
Hong Dali and the rest sat around the lobby once they returned to the hotel.

Dali,
Tang Muxin said quietly,
Are things over with Li Tianxing? I assumed that you wouldn’t accept his apology. Hehe, to be honest, I was really worried about it.

After all, Li Tianxing once abandoned all of them to die, leaving everyone with a horrible image of him. He then constantly caused trouble for Hong Dali. Therefore, it was understandable if Hong Dali chose not to accept his apology.

Am I really so narrow-minded?
Hong Dali shrugged.
Alright, to be honest, I didn’t really have a choice just now. Li Xuancheng is a sly old fox. He talked to me in such a humble tone in front of so many spectators. Li Tianxing apologized in public as well. What else could I do? If I chose not to forgive them even when they apologized and killed Li Tianxing instead, what can Brother Tianzong and Qianxue do? Who do they help, then?

Hong Dali’s thoughts were simple. Things with Li Tianxing had to end sooner or later. Now, they would both take a step back. This prevented any deep grudges from forming. If that was the case, nobody would have it easy.
In the end, Hong Dali concluded.
I’m a prodigal, not a serial killer.


Hehe, your temper is the best.
Tang Muxin gave Hong Dali a peck on the cheek.
Alright, I think that although Li Tianxing won’t take this in grace, he probably also won’t dare to take any cheap shots in a while.

Hong Dali directly labeled Li Tianxing.
Those who are afraid of death will usually shrink away when facing someone stronger than them.

…
Shenluo City, inside the Jiang Family’s Mansion.
Jiang Qianxue lowered her head and sat on the sofa. Jiang Duxing and Jiang Dongliu both had stern looks on their faces.

Qianxue, do you really plan on following Hong Dali to the Faerie Star?
Jiang Duxing lowered his voice and asked. How could Jiang Duxing not see through Jiang Qianxue? The almighty genius that she searched so long for turned out to be the Hong Dali that she played together with. They were already on good terms, and now, there was an additional relationship between them. With Jiang Qianxue’s idolization of heroes, it was impossible for her to be indifferent towards him.

Yes, I have to go.
Although Jiang Qianxue lowered her head and did not dare to look at her father, her response was firm and determined.
