Swallowed Star: Top Comprehension

Chapter 104 Brolin's Sincerity
After leaving the virtual universe, Chen Yue found Hong.

"Master, I am going to the Qianwu Dojo in Qianwu Universe for intensive training. I will leave Qiulong Star to you and Lei Shen."

Chen Yue said, with a hint of reluctance in his tone.

The starry sky of Qiulong Star is extremely beautiful, and Chen Yue has deep feelings for this place.

He has deep feelings for this land.

It was when he first encountered the starry sky that he was deeply attracted by its beauty and mystery, so he decided to settle down here.

Qiulong Star is not only the first base of the Earth Four in the vast universe, but also the place where his dream began.

Every building, every tree, every brick, every leaf...

Chen Yue has poured a lot of effort into these works, conveying his ideals and passion.

"How long are you going?"

Hong asked quickly, frowning slightly, looking a little worried.

"Two to three years at the least, five years at the most."

Chen Yue replied, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

Considering the long distance and intensive training, it will take at least two to three years.

And the battle of geniuses will begin in about five years.

Chen Yue guessed that Qianwu Universe would definitely allow him to participate, so the five-year training camp should be over at most.

"What about Earth?"

Hong asked, somewhat worriedly.

He remembered that Babata mentioned that a spaceship had been discovered in the Milky Way, and they had planned to intercept and deal with it after some time.

Now that Chen Yue is leaving, he feels a little uneasy.

"It's okay, I've arranged everything."

Chen Yue smiled slightly, looking confident.

"Everything is arranged?"

Hong was a little surprised, and his brows relaxed slightly. Is it too hasty...

"Don't worry, Master."

Chen Yue said firmly, with confidence gleaming in his eyes.

--------

"drop--"

Chen Yue’s smart assistant prompted him that he had received a request from the virtual universe.

It was from Brolin.

"So fast?"

Chen Yue was secretly surprised. He didn't expect Brolin to have news so quickly.

"Master, there is news. Come with me! Log in to the virtual universe."

Chen Yue said to Hong with a smile.

He gave Hong a communication code and then entered the virtual universe.

"Chen Yue, I have finished everything I promised you."

Brolin has been waiting in the virtual universe.

When he saw Chen Yue coming, he immediately showed a look of surprise.

He was in a good mood.

He felt extremely happy because his grandfather Hargrave reimbursed him for all the expenses of purchasing items.

"Wait a minute, I have a friend."

Chen Yue smiled and gestured to Brolin.

Brolin nodded and became curious about Chen Yue's friend.

Soon, whirlpools formed in the space.

Then a black figure appeared, it was Hong.

Brolin looked at Hong and found that he was wrapped in a black robe, like a spear ready to be fired.

"Your Highness, this is my elder brother, Hong."

Chen Yue introduced, "This is His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince of our Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

Hong nodded secretly.

He didn't know the relationship between Brolin and Chen Yue, so he didn't say much.

But it must be related to what Chen Yue said about solving the earth crisis.

Although Brolin didn't see what was so special about Hong, since Chen Yue valued him so much, he naturally would not lose face for Chen Yue.

"Chen Yue and I are good brothers. You are his elder brother, so you are my elder brother."

Brolin grinned, without any airs of a prince at all.

Hong was shocked that Chen Yue had established a friendship with the prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

He has officially accepted Luo as his disciple, so naturally he knows some of the situations in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

The Ninth Prince in front of him was very powerful in the empire. Even though he knew that he was Luo's apprentice, he was only polite to him, but it was far from the point of being a brother.

"It seems that the talent that Chen Yue has shown has attracted enough attention from many powerful people."

Hong pondered in his heart.

He had privately asked Luo about Chen Yue's situation.

He was puzzled as to why Law had changed his mind and stayed in the castle, but Law just smiled and did not reveal the specific reason.

Now, combined with Brolin's performance, his guess is further confirmed.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Hong nodded to Brolin.

"Let's stop being polite and sit down."

Brolin said excitedly, and then three chairs appeared out of thin air.

"Sit down." Brolin sat down first.

Hong hesitated and looked at Chen Yue.

Chen Yue nodded, took the lead and sat down, and Hong followed suit.

Brolin had a black token in his hand, on which was a lifelike black dragon.

"This is the Black Dragon Order, which represents the royal family in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Of course, this is a virtual universe."

"The real Black Dragon Order. I have ordered my most trusted subordinates to go to Qionglong Star immediately and deliver it to you."

Chen Yue nodded, feeling gratified by Brolin's generosity.

"With this Black Dragon Order, you will be able to obtain certain privileges on any planet under the jurisdiction of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

Brolin handed Chen Yue a black token with a hint of pride in his tone.

"Of course, I'm borrowing it from you. You have to return it to me later."

He added, a sly gleam in his eyes.

"As for what you said, setting your hometown as a protection target, that is completely sufficient."

Brolin continued.

"Okay, no problem, thank you."

Chen Yue took the Black Dragon Order and played with it gently, feeling surprised at Brolin's generosity.

Brolin was relieved to see that Chen Yue was satisfied.

He had spent a lot of effort to obtain this Black Dragon Order from his father.

"The second thing is the Nuolanshan family."

Brolin's expression suddenly became serious.

"To be honest, it's a bit tricky. I just found out that Nuo Lanshan is an internal member of Baihu Tower."

He said with a wry smile.

"I believe that since His Royal Highness has come here, he must have a plan."

Chen Yue smiled slightly and looked at Brolin firmly.

"Haha, nothing can be hidden from you. Just because something is difficult doesn't mean it's impossible!"

Brolin's voice was full of unquestionable momentum, and his eyes were shining with pride and ambition.

"I'll give you two options."

Brolin held up two fingers.

"I'd like to hear the details." Chen Yue nodded.

"First, I'll just find a reason to destroy them."

Brolin said.

"What about the second one?"

Chen Yue asked, vaguely expecting a better choice.

“Second, I will find someone to kill Nuo Lanshan and his immediate family, and you will take over the affairs of the Nuo Lanshan family.”

Brolin said with a smile.

"I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to choose the first one."

Chen Yue responded with a smile, feeling satisfied with Brolin's sincerity.

Hong was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why Chen Yue suddenly wanted to exterminate the entire family.

For Hong, he was unable to accept this law of survival in the universe for a while.

Chen Yue saw it all, but he couldn't explain it in front of Brolin. "Ah, the last one. You really stumped me."

Brolin said helplessly.

"You don't know, because of this matter, I almost alarmed my father. Fortunately, someone helped me to settle it."

He sighed.

Chen Yue nodded, knowing in his heart that the person who would help must be Hargrave.

Otherwise, no one can have such great energy.

"10 C9-level laser guns are also on the way."

Brolin finished speaking and leaned back in his chair, looking a little tired.

"Thank you very much!"

Chen Yue is not a pretentious person. He clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment.

Brolin has been removed from the enemies list by now.

Brolin helped him a lot and obviously wanted to establish a good relationship with him.

If nothing unexpected happens, Brolin will be his best helper in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

But Nuolan Mountain is different.

The Nuo Lanshan Fleet will soon arrive in the solar system. Sooner or later, Chen Yue and the Nuo Lanshan Fleet will have a battle.

As long as Nuolanshan discovers the secrets of the earth, he will never stop coveting the treasures of the earth.

Chen Yue was deeply impressed by Nuo Lanshan.

greedy!

In the original novel, Nuo Lan Shan encouraged the first group of people who came to Earth to pretend to be pirates and stay on Earth.

This move is very telling.

gloomy!

After realizing that Luo Feng might ask Ming Yu to take action against him, Nuo Lanshan simply chose to escape.

Very talented!

Moreover, Luo Feng later discovered in the battlefield outside the domain that Nuo Lanshan had reached the third level of realm master.

It can be said that when Chen Yue traveled here, Nuo Lanshan's name had already been put on Chen Yue's kill list.

On the contrary, Li Yao is Luo Feng's whetstone, and Chen Yue is too disdainful to take action.

"These 10 C9-level laser guns are best used within the jurisdiction of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."

Brolin looked at Chen Yue solemnly, with a hint of warning in his tone.

"Don't worry, I won't use it easily."

Chen Yue smiled slightly, then his face darkened and his tone was cold, "Once used, there will be no survivors."

Even in the virtual universe, Brolin felt the chill emanating from Chen Yue and couldn't help but shiver.

"You are so cruel! But this character is very much to my liking." Brolin praised sincerely.

"To your taste?"

Chen Yue was stunned and began to look at Brolin carefully.

"What are you doing?!"

Brolin felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Chen Yue, as if he was being stared at by a wild beast.

Chen Yue was secretly calculating in his mind.

In his previous life, he had watched the anime "Swallowed Star", in which Brolin was a beauty.

Now he looks like a real man.

"Do you have twin sisters?" Chen Yue suddenly asked.

"???" Brolin was puzzled.

"Haha, forget it if you don't have any. I'm just asking casually."

Chen Yue smiled and changed the subject.

"I won't say anything polite, what do you need me to do?"

Chen Yue looked at Brolin seriously.

"There's no rush for now, just wait and see." Brolin responded with a smile.

Chen Yue seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment's silence, he nodded.

"Your Highness, thank you very much. I hope we can meet in real life. I will definitely treat you well then."

Chen Yue said with a smile.

"Haha, there will be a chance."

Brolin was also very happy. The mission was successfully completed, and he and Chen Yue also established a preliminary connection.

--------

After Chen Yue and Hong left the virtual universe, Brolin also withdrew.

In a magnificent palace.

There was a golden and magnificent light flashing all around, and the glazed tiles sparkled in the sun, reflecting a magnificent scene.

The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, making people feel peaceful and luxurious.

Brolin was enjoying the service of two beautiful maids in purple dresses.

Suddenly, a personal guard with a tense body and eagle-like eyes appeared from the shadows of the palace, his armor gleaming solemnly under the light.

"Your Highness." The guard knelt on one knee, his voice low and respectful.

"Well, you all can leave first." Brolin nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of unquestionable majesty.

He waved his hand gently, and his voice, though soft, carried an irresistible authority.

The two maids responded in unison, "Yes, Your Highness." They retreated cautiously.

Leaving behind a huge and empty hall, silent and quiet.

"How is it? Did it go well?" Brolin turned and asked the guard.

"Your Highness, everything went smoothly and it will be delivered to Qionglong Star today."

The guard answered, but there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Brolin noticed his expression and smiled: "If you have any questions, just ask."

The guard is Brolin's most trusted person. He has followed him for many years and has been secretly protecting him even in the virtual universe.

Chen Yue and Hong were completely unaware of his presence.

"Your Highness, I don't understand. Chen Yue clearly expressed his gratitude for your help and asked you to propose conditions..."

The guard hesitated to speak.

"And I haven't brought up anything. Is that what you want to ask?"

Brolin took over the topic and said with a smile.

The guard nodded.

Brolin laughed, his eyes sparkling with wisdom.

"It seems like I didn't ask for anything, but in fact, I don't need to ask for anything anymore."

He looked outside the palace, his tone leisurely.

"You gain the most if you don't fight for anything. Chen Yue is a smart man, he will understand."

The guard nodded thoughtfully, and his admiration for Brolin's foresight increased even more.

"You've worked hard. Go back and have a rest early."

Brolin smiled slightly and signaled the guards to leave.

--------

In Chen Yue's castle, Hong stared at Chen Yue, feeling a myriad of emotions in his heart.

"Chen Yue, this Ninth Prince is not a simple person."

Hong couldn't help but sigh as he recalled Brolin's actions.

"Master, have you noticed that too?"

Chen Yue smiled slightly and nodded.

"That's right. I'm older than you, so I've naturally experienced more."

Hong said slowly, his tone showing a hint of calmness.

Chen Yue nodded in agreement without objection.

"Chinese culture is broad and profound. Before Nirvana, although I was a killer, I knew that I had committed serious sins."

Hong looked serious.

"So I've been studying Chinese Taoist culture. There's a saying that I really like."

Chen Yue took over the conversation: "It is because he does not contend that no one in the world dares to contend with him."

Hong's eyes lit up and he looked a little surprised, "You've heard of it too?"

Chen Yue nodded, thinking secretly in his heart.

In fact, he didn't really understand this.

In my previous life, I was busy with revenge and occasionally read online novels. I didn't have the time to study Taoist culture in depth.

However, this is what Hong himself once said.

Hong spoke slowly, “Yes, this sentence contains great wisdom.”

"This is exactly what happened to the Ninth Prince. He didn't seem to have put forward any conditions, but he won a huge fortune."
