Chapter 474 - : Guarding the Array

“Boss, I think this Venerable Oceanus harbors ill intentions too!”

The four mysterious cultivators were gathered in secret.

“Heh, the strong are respected in the North River Galaxy. Do you think I don’t know what Oceanus is thinking? However, our goal is the same as his for the time being, and that is to deal with Venerable Vigil! After all, if we face two Venerables, we are definitely not their match. However, if we deal with Venerable Vigil first, and Oceanus is the only one left, so what if he’s a Venerable?”

“That’s right. It’s not like we haven’t dealt with Venerables before!”

“If this operation is successful, that’ll be two domains with more than a hundred planets. The four of us can easily metamorphose into advanced planetary lifeforms. When the four of us join forces, aside from Grand Emperors who are ultimate planetary lifeforms, no one will be our match.”

“Haha, just the thought of it is wonderful.”

Wild greed appeared in the eyes of all four of them.

…

“Brother Lin Feng, are you settling in comfortable?”

Venerable Vigil finally finished his mundane matters and arrived at Lin Feng’s residence immediately.

“It’s nice. The Vigil Domain is so orderly under Brother’s management. I’ll have much to consult Big Brother on in the future.”

“Haha, Brother Lin Feng, you’re too kind. You’re a disciple of the Divine Palace, a distinguished disciple of Divine King Bemond. How can my meager wealth be worth your fancy? This Vigil Domain can be considered the fruit of my labor. Unfortunately, after managing it for thousands of years, such an extent is the best I can do.”

“Big Brother, the Vigil Domain is already great. There’s no knowing how long it would take if I were to manage my home planet to the level of the Vigil Domain.”

“Oh? Brother Lin Feng intends to integrate your home planet into the North River Galaxy?”

“I do have this thought, but I haven’t learned the situation in the North River Galaxy in detail yet, so I haven’t made up my mind.”

Venerable Vigil understood now. Lin Feng had doubts.

However, on second thought, it made sense. The situation in the North River Galaxy was not even clear. How could Lin Feng make up his mind?

“Brother Lin Feng, I know the situation of the North River Galaxy the best. The North River Galaxy is famous for its openness and freedom, but openness and freedom also mean chaos. If one is not strong enough, it is actually quite dangerous to be in the North River Galaxy. Brother Lin Feng’s strength is naturally enough to establish yourself in the North River Galaxy, but your home planet is different.”

“If I’m not wrong, Brother Lin Feng is the only planetary lifeform on our home planet, right?”

Lin Feng nodded. There’s nothing to hide here.

“Brother Lin Feng’s home planet only has one planetary lifeform. Moreover, Brother Lin Feng probably won’t stay on your home planet forever. If you return to the Divine Palace, without a planetary lifeform guarding it, it is likely for many changes to occur. If Brother Lin Feng takes time to manage it, managing a domain is actually possible, but this will be too time-consuming.”

Indeed, these were all things Lin Feng had considered.

“How about this? If Brother Lin Feng trusts me, we can move your home planet near my Vigil Domain, and we can be neighbors to each other. In the future, even if Brother Lin Feng leaves, I can help Brother Lin Feng to take care of it slightly. Actually, the North River Galaxy is very large. Forget about a few dozen planets, no matter how many territorial planets there are, it can accommodate them.”

Lin Feng naturally understood what Venerable Vigil meant. The North River Galaxy was huge. What Venerable Vigil meant was to tell Lin Feng not to worry. No conflict of interest would actually arise by moving his home planet over. Instead, if the two joined forces, their power would increase greatly, and no one would dare to touch the home planets of Venerable Vigil and Lin Feng.

“Big Brother’s idea is quite good. However, wouldn’t I be taking too much advantage of you this way?”

Although Venerable Vigil was very magnanimous, and Lin Feng was willing to befriend him, Lin Feng felt bad that he was always taking advantage without making any contributions.

Moreover, people must provide value of their own in order to work together as equals.

“Haha, Brother Lin Feng, that’s where you’re wrong. It’s a great benefit for us to join forces. I couldn’t desire it more! Moreover, there’s indeed a troublesome matter in the present that I need Brother Lin Feng’s help for.”

“Oh, what is it?”

Lin Feng revealed a curious expression. He was not afraid that Venerable Vigil had a request. He was only afraid that Venerable Vigil did not have one. That way, Lin Feng would always be taking advantage, and it would actually very unfavorable for his cooperation with Venerable Vigil.

It couldn’t be better that Venerable Vigil wanted something from him.

“Brother Lin Feng, you probably know about Venerable Oceanus, right?”

“I do.”

“This Venerable Oceanus has fought with me for thousands of years, and I’ve always had the upper hand. He’s unwilling to accept it. Originally, there was no deep enmity between our domains, but Venerable Oceanus was bent on occupying my Vigil Domain, so that he could be the only hegemon of this region! Hmph, that he’s so bent on competing for power is the reason he’s much slower than me in cultivation. So what if he became the hegemon? In the North River Galaxy, strength is the most important thing. With strength, there’s nothing that can’t be obtained with full effort.

“It’s one thing that Oceanus is putting the cart before the horse, but he’s bent on scheming against me. Now that I’ve completed my artifacts, there’s no need for me to tolerate it anymore. If he were alone, I would have nothing to fear. However, he’s recently recruited four mysterious cultivators. Although they’re only elementary planetary lifeforms, no one knows Oceanus better than I. He wouldn’t do anything he’s not confident in.

“Therefore, I think these four mysterious cultivators might be a little strange. Brother Lin Feng, you don’t have to attack. You just need to guard the array for me. If anything really happens, with Brother Lin Feng guarding the array, I can also fight Oceanus without worries!”

Lin Feng understood now. It turned out that Venerable Vigil was going to fight with Venerable Oceanus. Lin Feng had also learned previously that the two parties had actually fought for many times. Venerable Vigil always had the upper hand over Venerable Oceanus, but he could not kill Venerable Oceanus completely.

Although the two territories were adjacent, Venerable Vigil was indeed fully focused on cultivation. He only wanted to safeguard the basic 72 territorial planets, and maintain his cultivation level. As for more power, Venerable Vigil was not interested at all.

On the other hand, Venerable Oceanus was indeed power-hungry, and bent on plotting to acquire the Vigil Domain.

“Big Brother, you’re too courteous. This Venerable Oceanus is power-hungry. If we don’t get rid of him, even if I move my home planet over in the future, there will be major trouble. Big Brother, don’t worry. With me supporting you, no accident will occur!”

“Haha, of course I trust Brother Lin Feng’s strength. If we succeed this time, Brother Lin Feng can freely choose half of the many territorial planets in Oceanus Domain. When the time comes, we can form a cosmic array to guard our home planets. Even if Brother Lin Feng is away, you can rest assured.”

Lin Feng was moved. The fact that Venerable Vigil was so generous reinforced his previous thoughts.

After dealing with the Oceanus Domain, his home planet would also be able to use this opportunity to enter the North River Galaxy, and completely integrate into it. With Lin Feng and Venerable Vigil around, there would be no need to worry about safety, and it could develop in peace.

“In that case, I’ll thank you in advance, Big Brother!”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling incomparably elated.
