“Childe Chen knows me! What an honor!” Ao Liancheng smiled. “But, I haven’t gotten to know you yet, Childe Chen. Can we be friends?”


“My name is Chen Zhufeng from the Northern Wilderness Starfield. I’m just a n.o.body.” Chen Xiaobei shrugged.


“You’re too humble!” Ao Liancheng smiled. “If a n.o.body could be ranked eleven on the Nine-Zones Earth Leaderboard along with Ling Qingfeng, then wouldn’t that make all the other hundreds and millions of young people in the nine zones as insignificant specks of dust?”


Chen Xiaobei made no comment about it. “I’m ranked at the eleventh place, and you’re number four. Why would you want to make friends with someone ranked lower than you?”


As the Chinese proverb says, one who is unaccountably solicitous must be hiding evil intentions.


Ao Liancheng was a G.o.d-Ascension cultivation elite – why was he so eager to make friends with Chen Xiaobei?


Chen Xiaobei could not help but feel suspicious.


“Well, since you asked, I’ll just be frank with you!” Ao Liancheng answered. “I saw everything that had just happened! Childe Chen is very compelling, very manly, and you’re loyal to your friends! Childe Chen’s character is exactly to my liking! That’s why I want to be friends with you!”


“That’s it?” Chen Xiaobei raised his brows at Ao Liancheng.


“Hehe, Childe Chen, you really are something. I do indeed have a selfish motive, and it seems I can’t even keep that from you!” Ao Liancheng’s smile grew stern. “Just now, that friend of yours called you Miracle Doctor, and I saw with my own eyes that your friend’s injuries had healed rapidly! I was hoping to invite Childe Chen along to Neptune Starfield with me!”


“Why? Are you hiring me for my medical services?” Chen Xiaobei looked puzzled. “But you look well! You’re very healthy!”


“No… It’s not for me…” Ao Liancheng said. “But for his majesty, our holy emperor! I hope Childe Chen will grant me this favor!”


Chen Xiaobei studied Ao Liancheng’s face. Surprisingly, he did not seem to be lying. Also, Chen Xiaobei had plans to go to Nepture Starfield anyhow. With Ao Liancheng escorting him, his trip would be smooth sailing!


“Alright! I can go back with you!” Chen Xiaobei nodded. “But I cannot guarantee that I can cure your holy emperor!”


“Understood…” Ao Liancheng nodded. “None of the renowned doctors in the nine zones can cure him! That is why, even if Childe Chen can’t cure him, we won’t have any complaints! In fact, we will even pay you handsomely for your service!”


“Alright! You are a reasonable man! I can go with you!” Chen Xiaobei nodded.


Afterward, Chen Xiaobei followed Ao Liancheng to the portal and quickly arrived at the peripheral planet east of Saint Duke Starfield.


After that, they took Ao Liancheng’s s.p.a.cecraft to Neptune Starfield.


The flying vehicles of high-ranking starfields were more than a hundred times faster than those in Northern Wilderness Starfield.


However, the distance between the starfields was not at all close! Even at warp, it took them the better half of a day to arrive at Neptune Starfield!


If someone from a lower-middle starfield were to take their own flying vehicle to Neptune, it would take them at least a hundred to a few hundred days to reach their destination. On top of that, they might not even be able to find whatever they came to look for when they arrive at the vast ocean starfield.


For thousands of years, almost no one would willingly make a trip to Neptune. That was why gradually, as time pa.s.sed, the merpeople became mythical legends that no one would believe.


If Chen Xiaobei had not seen them with his own eyes, he would not have believed it either.


Chen Xiaobei looked out the window and spotted a blue planet.


“Is that a Neptune Starfield planet?” he asked.


Planet Earth was also blue but among all the blue, you could see big pieces of land.


On this planet, however, there was not a single terra firma to be seen. It was just a sea of blue in its entirety.


The legends were accurate – the planets in Neptune Starfield were completely covered in ocean water. On such a planet, the common man would have no place to set foot.


“Yes, that is the outermost planet of Neptune!” Ao Liancheng nodded, taking out a small vile and pa.s.sing it to Chen Xiaobei. “Because the planet is made up of just water, you’ll have to take one of these Fish Breathing pills!”


Chen Xiaobei accepted the bottle and took a whiff. “Fish Breathing pills? What is that?” He could tell that it was not poisoned but he was uncertain about its effect.


Ao Liancheng answered, “Fish Breathing pills, as its name suggests, would allow people to breathe freely underwater like fishes! There are seven pills in the vile. You just need to take one every day to make sure that you are able to function as usual while you’re underwater!”


“Understood.” Chen Xiaobei nodded while putting the pills away.


“Childe Chen, we’re going into the water soon. You have to take one first or you might suffocate later!” Ao Liancheng warned.


“It’s no problem at all. I’m very good when it comes to water. I’ll give it a try first. When I really cannot hold my breath anymore, I’ll take it!” Chen Xiaobei smiled.


The truth was, Chen Xiaobei had Little White Dragon’s Hydrophobe Orb in his stomach. His water ability was way better than any fish. He did not need the Fish Breathing pills at all.


This pill was special, however, and it was impossible to obtain them anywhere else even if you had the money.


That was why Chen Xiaobei made up an excuse to keep it. His friends might have use of it the next time.


The flying vehicle came to a stop above the water.


Ao Liancheng and his guard left their seats, and began to strip off their clothes, revealing toned, muscular bodies.


“Neptune Blood! Release!” Both of than uttered those words, and something magical happened!


Distinct, angular red fish scales sprouted all over Ao Liancheng’s upper body like a suit of crimson golden armor!


Simultaneously, his arms, legs and back grew bright red fins shaped like blades, making his suit-armor look even sharper!


On the other hand, the upper half of the guard’s body remained the same. His legs, however, multiplied into eight, tensile and elongated tentacles equipped with suckers!


“Wow! That’s really half-human, half-fis.h.!.+ The world is really full of wonders!” Chen Xiaobei could only stare. It was like watching a fantasy film!


“Hehe, don’t be too surprised, Childe Chen. You’ll meet even more interesting merpeople in the ocean later!” Ao Liancheng smiled as he unlocked the cabin door and dove into the water.


The octopus man smiled, “Childe Chen, please go ahead. I will put this flying vehicle away.”


“Oh…” Chen Xiaobei shook his head to refocus and then jumped down after Ao Liancheng.


“Childe Chen, hold my hand, I’ll dive with you!” Ao Liancheng reached out a scaly hand.


Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “No, it’s alright! I’m very good in the water!”


“Childe Chen, you should go with the prince!” The octopus man said. “With a human’s swimming speed, you’ll only reach the bottom tomorrow morning!”


“That may not be the case!”


Chen Xiaobei shot him an enigmatic smile.
