Chapter 1012: Chapter 1012: Lan Xuanyu’s Plan
“Alright, our first trade. You can stay here for now, but I need to take the items to sell them. Can you trust me?” Liang Pu asked.
Lan Xuanyu made a welcoming gesture with his hand, and seeing his attitude, Liang Pu seemed very pleased as he collected the Spirit Forging and soul-forged metals one by one.
“Stay here at my place, and I’ll go find a channel. Consider these as a deposit.” As he spoke, Liang Pu pulled out a handful of light gold coins from his robe and handed them to Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu didn’t even check the amount before pocketing them.
After Liang Pu hurriedly left, Lan Xuanyu took out the Dragon Horse Coins from his robes to examine them.
These Dragon Horse Coins were crafted using a rare metal, not paper money, but rather a thin layer of metal foil, extremely durable. From the denomination on them, Liang Pu was very generous, giving them a thousand Sky Dragon gold coins which were quite valuable.
From their previous observations at the trading center, the minimum ticket to the Betting Area was five Dragon Horse Coins, and the highest one was five hundred Dragon Horse Coins.
The purchasing power of Dragon Horse Coins was very strong; a thousand Dragon Horse Coins were definitely worth a considerable amount.
“Looks like we have successfully infiltrated, right?” Qian Lei said with a laugh, “It seems their vigilance isn’t very high!”
“This is probably because the powerhouses of the Sky Dragon Planet have a lot of confidence in their individual strength,” Lan Xuanyu said. “They only fear the federation’s fleet, not our strong fighters. It is extremely difficult to infiltrate like we did; without the Treasure Hunting Beast’s transformation, it would be impossible to evade radar surveillance. Even invisibility wouldn’t get us through. Sky Dragon Planet still has that kind of technology.”
“Indeed,” Liu Feng said. “On this trip, the Treasure Hunting Beast’s contribution is unparalleled. With it, we can even enter the interior of the Sky Dragon Planet at any time to gather various information. This is extraordinarily significant for the federation.”
Lan Xuanyu gave a slight smile. “For us, it is also a great opportunity to capture resources. Here, we can exchange for more resources needed by the academy and Tang Sect. Infiltrating the enemy from within, we can cause destruction at a critical moment. After we send Little Lazy Bug back to the Mother Planet and return here, even the Sky Dragon wouldn’t notice us; they are unlikely to scan the entire planet with divine consciousness.”
“Are you planning on staying here more often?” Bai Xiuxiu asked.
Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “Exactly. The more we understand about the enemy, the more opportunities we have. However, we must act carefully and use normal means to collect information. Being embedded within the enemy, our role will be much bigger. The information we gather will go to the federation, and the resources to the academy and Tang Sect.”
Yuanen Huihui chuckled and said, “Absolutely perfect.”
“But everyone must still be cautious and careful,” Lan Xuanyu advised. “Don’t expose ourselves. We can try to continue trading with this Liang Pu for now. If anything goes wrong, we will leave immediately. Sky Dragon Planet is vast; aside from Sky Dragon City, we always have opportunities.”
Suddenly, Tang Yuge asked, “What is our ultimate goal?”
Lan Xuanyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, “To find the life core of the Sky Dragon Planet.”
Hearing this, everyone felt a chill. The life core of the Sky Dragon Planet was essentially the lifeline of the planet and must be on the level of a Super God Level powerhouse. Lan Xuanyu’s intention to find the life core was very clear.
Looking at his companions, Lan Xuanyu said in a grave voice, “I have an even bolder idea. From what we have observed today, the Dragon Clan holds a very high status on Sky Dragon Planet. The most powerful members of the Sky Dragon Clan can even transform into human form. The first time I saw a Sky Dragon, he mentioned that the human form is the most beautiful. This implies that this place venerates the human appearance. Otherwise, their dragon knights wouldn’t transform into human forms to ride. To truly disintegrate the Sky Dragon Clan and control the Dragon Horse Star System, perhaps we can start from within.”
Bai Xiuxiu had a sudden thought, as she knew Lan Xuanyu best. She exclaimed with loss of voice, “You aren’t going to impersonate the Sky Dragon Clan, are you?”
Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath and nodded gently.
Seeing him nod, everyone was horrified. What did impersonating the Sky Dragon Clan mean? It meant that he would have to move among a group of God rank Sky Dragon Clan powerhouses. The risk of being exposed was constant, and he would have to face Sky Dragons of the Super God Level.
“This won’t do!” Bai Xiuxiu was the first to oppose, “It’s too dangerous.”
Lan Xuanyu smiled faintly, took her hand, and said, “Not now. I’m aware of the dangers. So, without certainty, I won’t take the risk. I must wait until my cultivation undergoes another qualitative transformation before I’ll even consider it. My current five Soul Rings are all at the hundred-thousand-year level, which is already equivalent to the Soul Douluo level. I have a premonition that if I undergo another qualitative transformation, I will leap to another level, not only to the Titled Douluo, but at least to the Super Douluo Standard. If I can also awaken control over space elements, then self-protection won’t be a big issue. Moreover, who has a purer dragon bloodline than mine? I’ve tried it; my dragon’s might can oppress the dragon-like creatures here. I even suspect that the dragon transformations that occurred on Sky Dragon Planet were related to the decline of the dragon race in ancient times. They are likely the result of absorbing the essence of the fallen dragon race from that time. If so, my bloodline would naturally suppress them, compelling their recognition. Also, if I undergo another qualitative transformation, my very aura will change drastically—then, even without disguise, a Sky Dragon wouldn’t recognize me. If I could become a Dragon Knight on Sky Dragon Planet…”
At this point, he paused, but the six people surrounding him all felt their hearts racing.
“Boss, you win. You are absolutely the most daring person I’ve ever met,” Qian Lei bowed to Lan Xuanyu with a face full of admiration.
Tang Yuge gave a bitter smile and said, “The braver you get, the more cautious you become.”
Lan Xuanyu smiled slightly, “Talking about this now is still a bit too soon. But at least for now, we need to first establish cooperation here. I also need to become stronger. Otherwise, I can’t establish a foothold among the Sky Dragon Clan.”
Bai Xiuxiu looked intently at Lan Xuanyu and said, “I also have the dragon bloodline, so if you’re going to impersonate, I also…”
“Will you be my mount?” Lan Xuanyu suddenly looked at her with a mischievous smile, “Hmm, a Dragon Knight does need a mount.”
“You wish!” Bai Xiuxiu pushed his hand away, her pretty face blushing.
“Cough cough. The image is too beautiful, I dare not think about it, dare not think about it,” Qian Lei hid behind Lan Mengqin, but she grabbed his ear and pulled him back out.
“Brother Xuanyu, what are we doing these next two days?” Yuanen Huihui asked with a beaming smile.
Lan Xuanyu smiled faintly and said, “Making money. We’ll use these one thousand Dragon Horse Coins as start-up capital. Let’s go! Let’s head over to the Betting Area.”
As he was just thinking about whether he could infiltrate the enemy’s ranks by using his dragon identity, added with Bai Xiuxiu’s words, he came up with a bold idea.
The seven of them returned to the Mineral Trade Center. Entering again felt somewhat different; one reason was familiarity, but more importantly, having money eased their minds. Now, they had one thousand Dragon Horse Coins—a significant amount.
They went straight to the outside of the Betting Area. Lan Xuanyu connected his thoughts to the Treasure Hunting Beast. Quickly, he bought seven tickets—all of them the cheapest available at five Dragon Horse Coins each for a total cost of thirty-five Dragon Horse Coins.
Here, small transactions could be directly handled with cash in Dragon Horse Coins. Using an account at Sky Dragon Bank was for security, especially for larger transactions.
The one responsible for selling the tickets was a person from the Blue Sea Tribe. After Lan Xuanyu and his group bought the tickets, the Blue Sea Tribe person kindly said, “Good luck, brothers. I wish you all the best.”
