Chapter 412: It Should Be Free

Chimeng Planet was shrouded in a lifeless silence.
All 303 elite were annihilated, unable to even advance beyond the fourth round.
In the already precarious position of the Red River Cosmic Nation, it was on the verge of collapse.
Everyone with discerning eyes knew that a portion of the Chimeng galaxy had already been divided.
“Great-grandmother, can’t you just meet the family leader and request more resources?” Munro Emperor Xingqiu revealed a look of longing. “After my brother’s death, the Munro family is in a state of desolation. There’s much to be done, and progress is painfully slow.”
“Not for the time being.” Chining Emperor Yanjin shook her head. “The Supernova Prodigy Tournament selection has just concluded. The powerhouse performances of the family are disappointing, and the family leader is currently grappling with the situation. He won’t even see me, let alone you.”
Munro Emperor Xingqiu sighed.
She had watched the entire Supernova Prodigy Tournament selection.
She knew what had happened.
The Chimeng family had suffered a crushing defeat.
“It’s all that d*mned Wang Ye’s fault!” Munro Emperor Xingqiu gritted her teeth. “He repeatedly made things difficult for our Chimeng family. My brother died at his hands, and he still hounds us!”
Chining Emperor Yanjin was confused.
Chining Emperor Yanjin was stunned. “What did you say? Munro King Zangtu was killed by Wang Ye?”
“Yes!” Munro Emperor Xingqiu fumed. “This rebellious colony planet slave, after escaping from the Munro family’s Colony Planet 996, actually defected to the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation. Unbelievable!”
Chining Emperor Yanjin’s delicate body trembled, nearly losing control.
She couldn’t believe what she had heard.
“What did you say? Did you recognize the wrong person, Xingqiu.” Chining Emperor Yanjin grabbed Munro Emperor Xingqiu’s arm tightly, her face flushed. “Wang Ye is from Colony Planet 996 of the Munro family? Our Chimeng family’s people? How is that possible?”
Munro Emperor Xingqiu’s eyes glinted with hatred. “I recognized him even if he turned to ashes! Great-grandmother, if there’s a chance, you must make the family leader kill him! Avenge for our Munro family!”
“Why didn’t you say this earlier?” Chining Emperor Yanjin suppressed the joy in her heart and exclaimed excitedly.
“I only found out when watching the competition on the Taishi Star Network. This scoundrel went to the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation.” Munro Emperor Xingqiu snorted angrily. “We absolutely cannot let him go,
Great – grandmother!”
“Of course,” Chining Emperor Yanjin grinned from ear to ear.
How could she let him off?
This was a talent!
The savior of the Chimeng family!
There was no time to waste!
Within the imperial palace.
Chimeng King Luojin was quite troubled.
He was stuck in a dilemma without a solution.
He had just received the news that one-third of the Chimeng galaxy would be partitioned off by another emerging prominent family.
Even the presence of an ancestor of Undying Lifeform proved futile.
The dynamics of power among cosmic families were inherently harsh.
“Family Leader, Yanjin requests an audience,” Chiya King reported.
“What does she want? Tell her to leave,” Chimeng King Luojin grumbled, in a foul mood.
“She claims to have crucial information to report, related to Wang Ye,” Chiya King conveyed.
“Wang Ye?” Chimeng King Luojin frowned. “1 don’t care which insignificant family he belongs to.”
“She says… he belongs to our Chimeng family.” Chiya King hesitated for a moment.
Chimeng King Luojin was surprised by her words.
“Is what you’re saying true?” Chimeng King Luojin’s eyes widened.
“Yes, Family Leader. I’ve conducted a thorough investigation and cross-referenced with the Munro family’s preserved videos. Although his strength has undergone significant changes in various aspects, I am certain he is Wang Ye, the one who escaped from colony planet 996!” Chining Emperor Yanjin’s eyes gleamed.
Wang Ye, originating from the Munro family’s colony planet 996!
“He is a member of our Chimeng family!”
Hahaha!
Happiness arrived unexpectedly!
Chimeng King Luojin’s face lit up with a smile, dispelling his dejection. “Excellent! Excellent! That our Chimeng family could nurture such talent is truly the blessing of our ancestors!”
“But he is currently affiliated with the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation. Family Leader, do you have a way to convince him to switch allegiance?” Chining Emperor Yanjin expressed concern.
“That’s quite simple.” Chimeng King Luojin chuckled, narrowing his eyes. “I was wondering why Yi Chongqing would spare no expense to buy Planet 996. It turns out Wang Ye is behind it.”
He’s a person of significance. Very well, quite impressive!”
Lemei Planet, in Mingxia Manor.
“Alright, it’s possible.”
“Not a significant issue.”
I’ll give you a response in ten days.”
“Alright, goodbye.”
Wang Ye concluded the conversation.
Beside him were Lingling, Yao, and Nante, their faces reflecting anxiety.
“Don’t worry, Chimeng King Luojin isn’t foolish.” Wang Ye reassured with a smile. “As a family leader, he won’t let emotions cloud his judgment. Didn’t you hear what he just said? He doesn’t remember anything that happened before.”
“As long as I agree, returning to the Chimeng family will not only secure the Blue Planet but also place the Munro family’s colony planet under my control. 1’11 hold the reins.”
Nante furrowed his brows. “But wouldn’t that mean we’re back to square one, under the control of the Chimeng family?”
No, the situation has completely changed,” Wang Ye explained, shaking his head. “Now the leadership is in our hands. I’ve made a name for myself in the Supernova Prodigy Tournament. Once I switch allegiance to the Red River Cosmic Nation, I’ll undoubtedly gain recognition from the cosmic nations. The Chimeng family wouldn’t dare, and couldn’t, control us.”
“That’s why Chimeng King Luojin didn’t harbor any threatening intentions earlier. Instead, he was moved by my emotions because he knows it well in his heart.”
“Perhaps it’s true for now, but who knows about the future,” Lingling remarked.
Wang Ye grinned. “In five years, during the Taishi Starfield breakout competition, I will secure one of the three promotion spots. Even if I can’t join the seven supreme factions, the eighteen top factions will certainly extend an olive branch. Breaking through to the Black Hole level is only a matter of time.”
“In the future, it’s uncertain who will be the master and the subordinate.”
“The Chimeng family only seeks to leverage my rising prominence to help them weather their current difficulties and challenges.”
“Rather than viewing it as coercion or bribery, it’s more accurate to see it as a strategic retreat seeking talent.”
The three nodded in understanding.
Indeed, the current Wang Ye was no longer a mere pawn easily manipulated by the Chimeng family.
“But I can’t shake off this feeling of discomfort,” Nante grumbled.
“Agreed,” Yao added.
“That’s why I’ve left ten days as a buffer time to strive for an upper limit,” Wang Ye declared, his gaze flickering. “Joining the Chimeng family and securing the Blue Planet is the lower limit. With my current peak status, I am a coveted asset for every cosmic nation. There’s a complete opportunity to aim for an even higher upper limit!”
“Upper limit?” The others could vaguely sense Wang Ye’s ambition.
He was no longer content with being under someone else’s control.
“I envision a future where the Blue Planet forms its lineage and flourishes in the Milky Way,” Wang Ye declared. “Despite numerous hindrances to this aspiration, at the very least, the Blue Planet should no longer be an exploited 996 colony planet.”
“It deserves freedom.”
Seven cosmic days later.
A heavyweight figure arrived at Mingxia Manor.
A 9 th-level black hole expert, Sha Hong.
However, what made him significant wasn’t just his strength but his identity.
The high-grade leader of the Red River Galaxy.
The Lemei Galaxy, as a direct-controlled 8-star life galaxy by the cosmic nation, not only held a prestigious position but also had an extensive network and a strong background. In the Red River Cosmic Nation, it could be said that its family leader enjoyed unparalleled influence.
“Brother Wang Ye, I’ve heard so much about you!” Sha Hong, accompanied by Yi Chongqing, approached with a broad smile.
Not long ago, he watched the Supernova Prodigy Tournament auditions with the dignitaries of the Red River Cosmic Nation and then vented his anger.
Especially when Wang Ye directly eliminated Xi Yan, he was so angry that his face turned red and his neck swelled.
After the auditions, he, along with the citizens of the Red River Cosmic Nation, strongly denounced Wang Ye on various networks.
Particularly upon learning that Wang Ye resided on Lemei Planet, he had been eager to chase him out!
However, just seven days ago, he received a virtual projection call from Yi Chongqing.
He was stunned.
That night, Sha Hong left behind seven eagerly awaiting lovers, piloted his starship at its maximum speed, and hastily returned to Lemei Star!
“Brother Sha, you’re too courteous, coming in person.” Wang Ye gestured invitingly.
The three of them took their seats.
“Old Sha is quite straightforward,” Yi Chongqing chuckled. “This matter could have been settled with a virtual projection call. There was no need for Brother Sha to rush over to meet Wang Ye in person.”
“Respecting the wise is only natural.” Sha Hong laughed. “I watched Brother Wang Ye’s audition from start to finish. It was extraordinary, and 1 am truly impressed.”
“I think you scolded me from the beginning to the end…” Wang Ye thought sarcastically, smiling. “You flatter me.”
“You’re too powerful! Securing the 10th place in the qualifiers is no small feat!” Sha Hong praised with a thumbs-up. “But I never expected Brother Wang Ye to be a citizen of the Red River Cosmic Nation!”
Wang Ye maintained a smile, neither confirming nor denying.
He took a sip of water.
“I heard from Brother Yi that Brother Wang Ye is considering a triumphant return to your hometown. Is that true?” Sha Hong inquired urgently.
“I do have such thoughts,” Wang Ye sighed. “When 1 was young, 1 was oppressed and pursued by the Chimeng family, 1 had no choice but to escape my hometown. Later, I joined the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation by chance, but I always yearned for my hometown.”
“D*mn the Chimeng family!” Sha Hong gritted his teeth. “To drive out such a talent from our cosmic nation! They deserve the territory cut this time! Those fools!”
“These years, Brother Wang Ye has endured quite a bit from the Chimeng family,” Yi Chongqing added with a sigh.
Don’t worry, Brother Wang Ye. Leave this matter to me!” Sha Hong assured, patting his chest. “I’ll give you an explanation and ensure your satisfaction!”
“The Chimeng family is a minor concern. What I want goes beyond that.” Wang Ye cut to the chase, staring directly at Sha Hong.
Sha Hong was perceptive and laughed heartily. “From today onward, the six-star life galaxy containing the Blue Planet, the Tianyao Galaxy jointly managed by the original fifteen families, with a diameter of 101 light years, consisting of 120 five-star life galaxies and 12088 four-star colony planets, will all be under Wang Ye’s control!”
Wang Ye’s heart was in turmoil and he was ecstatic, but his expression didn’t change at all. “What if 1 want to purchase them?”
It’s a bit challenging,” Sha Hong pondered. “Wang Ye, you can establish a family to manage it, but new families don’t have the right to make direct purchases unless…”
“I secure one of the three spots in the Taishi Starfield breakout competition,” Wang Ye calmly stated.
In that case, there’s no problem at all!” Sha Hong’s eyes gleamed with determination. “Brother Wang Ye, when would it be convenient for you to switch allegiance?” he asked.
“Let’s see when the Red River Cosmic Nation is ready,” Wang Ye replied.
“Now!
