Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 125 Returning Home, Isadora Calls

One hour later.

Jiang Lan and Yao Rao returned to their villa in Jiangnan Base City.

As soon as he landed, before Jiang Lan could even speak, the communication watch on his wrist suddenly lit up.

Her alluring gaze searched.

Jiang Lan said, "It's Isadora from the HR Alliance."

After telling Yao Rao, Jiang Lan answered the call.

"Ms. Isadora."

"Mr. Jiang Lan, the train carrying the materials you purchased is about to arrive at Jiangnan Base City. Should we deliver them to the warehouse as agreed?"

Jiang Lan was taken aback at first, but then he guessed the purpose of Isadora's call to him.

Asking him where the goods are is a lie; asking for Muya Jing is the real reason.

"Just leave it there."

After Babata sent the selected materials to Isadora, Jiang Lan rented a large warehouse in the suburbs of the base city.

Before Isadora could continue, Jiang Lan said:

"Ms. Isadora, when would be a convenient time to meet at the HR Alliance Shopping Mall in Jiangnan Base City?"

Upon hearing this, Isadora was overjoyed.

She had been eyeing Mu Ya Jing for a long time, and now that the transaction was finally about to take place, how could she not be happy?

On the other end of the phone, Isadora said repeatedly:

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, when is a convenient time for you?"

Jiang Lan glanced at the alluring woman beside her.

"Five hours later, or tomorrow."

Upon hearing Jiang Lan mention the time, Yao Rao immediately understood what he meant. Her face flushed red, and she rolled her eyes at Jiang Lan.

It was almost evening, and five hours later it would be late at night. Even if Isadora was in a hurry, she wouldn't choose the middle of the night, so she said:

"Then how about tomorrow morning at 10:00? Is that convenient for you, Mr. Jiang Lan?"

"Can."

Jiang Lan readily agreed and immediately hung up the call.

Her alluring face remained flushed.

Seeing this, Jiang Lan immediately picked Yao Rao up and carried her horizontally, causing Yao Rao to let out a soft cry.

The door opened automatically, and Jiang Lan, carrying Yao Rao, was about to enter the bedroom.

"No... take a shower first..."

Jiang Lan's eyes lit up.

A bathroom, a bathroom will do.

……

Four hours later, the two were lying in bed.

Jiang Lan closed her eyes slightly, seemingly still immersed in the feeling from just now.

Perhaps because she had just experienced a brush with death today, Yao Rao's behavior just now could be described as wild.

It was even a bit overwhelming for him.

Her alluring, smooth fingers, as white as scallions, gently circled Jiang Lan's chest.

"Will we be heading to space in a few days once the spaceship is repaired?"

"Hmm." Jiang Lan turned to face Yao Rao. "I have some things to do this time, so I can't take you with me. I'll take you with me next time I come back."

Initially, Jiang Lan planned to take Yao Rao on an adventure in space once he got his hands on the spaceship.

But after the battle with those robots on the Black Dragon Mountain, Jiang Lan changed his mind.

Her current strength is still too low.

However, if they were to encounter real danger, Jiang Lan might not be able to protect her.

Therefore, Jiang Lan plans to find a planet full of monsters first, improve his strength, and then take Yao Rao out.

This is a safer approach.

Yao Rao was taken aback by what she heard.

"Are you going by yourself...?"

Jiang Lan smoothed her alluring, seaweed-like long hair and said:

"Okay, I'll take you with me once I've improved my strength a bit."

Her alluring eyes held a hint of worry.

Although she had never left Earth, she had learned about some systems in the universe and the division of martial arts strength through Jiang Lan.

She also knew that in the universe, planetary beings were just the beginning, barely able to survive in space.

With this kind of strength, one wrong move and you could be captured by slave traders in the universe and enslaved. If you're unlucky, you might even be sent to the front lines to be cannon fodder.

"You yourself..."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Jiang Lan offered words of comfort once again.

Seeing that Jiang Lan had made up her mind, Yao Rao knew that there was no use in persuading her anymore, so she bit her lower lip and nodded slightly.

Suddenly, she flipped over and sat directly on Jiang Lan.

"Honey……"

"Understand!"

……

……

The next day, at 10:00 AM.

"Mr. Jiang Lan."

In the HR Alliance Shopping Mall in Jiangnan Base City, on the 85th floor of the conference hall, an elderly woman with silver hair, dressed in a black leather jacket, sat in her seat, looked at Jiang Lan in front of her, and greeted him with a smile.

This old man was none other than Isadora, the Speaker of the HR Alliance Council.

Jiang Lan sat opposite Isadora and, without saying a word, took out a milky-white wooden crystal.

"Here is the payment, Ms. Isadora. Please check it."

If Jiang Lan had found the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spaceship a few days earlier, he wouldn't have needed to purchase the wreckage of these spaceships from the HR Alliance.

But since the goods have already been shipped and delivered to the designated location, he can't break the contract.

Anyway, Mu Ya Jing is not lacking, and besides, there might be something Babata can use in the future among these spaceship wreckage.

Isadora's eyes lit up immediately as she took Mu Yajing from Jiang Lan's hands.

Sensing the pure power fluctuations emanating from the Wood Crystal, Isadora nodded repeatedly:

"no problem!"

"That's good. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Jiang Lan didn't intend to waste time with Isadora. Now that the money and goods were settled, he was in a hurry to go home.

"Don't rush, Mr. Jiang Lan, why don't you stay for a simple meal?"

As the president of the HR Alliance, Isadora is a popular figure wherever she goes, and it's rare for her to take the initiative to try to retain others.

But Jiang Lan, he has the qualifications.

Not only did he become a planetary-level powerhouse at a young age, but he also served as the inspector of the Limit Martial Arts Academy.

Most importantly, given Isadora's status, she has access to inside information.

Therefore, she knew that Jiang Lan had not even used two months from the time he first awakened to the time he became a planetary-level being.

What a terrifying talent!

Moreover, with so much time having passed, Jiang Lan's strength might have already broken through to some level.

With these qualities alone, Jiang Lan was already enough to win Isadora's favor.

Moreover, Jiang Lan now possesses the magical treasure, the Wood Crystal.

"Well……"

Jiang Lan thought for a moment, then shook her head and refused:

"I won't have dinner. My wife is waiting for me at home. Maybe next time."

He's about to head to space.

If nothing unexpected happens, his strength will once again experience a period of rapid improvement.

When I come back again, becoming the number one person on Earth will definitely not be a problem.

At that time, even Hong and Thor will be left far behind by him.

In the past, he might have tried to build a closer relationship with the chairman of the HR Alliance.

But now, there's no need for that anymore.

Humans on Earth certainly cannot keep up with his pace.
