Lawful Tyrant

Chapter 232 A Void Lord

The white-haired old man who served as the receptionist led Lin Qing into the VIP area of ​​the palace before leaving.

A waiter in the palace immediately came over and said respectfully, "If the VIP needs any service, you can go to the various areas to place your order. In addition, the high-level VIP area today provides 'Source Wine' produced by Holy Star City Baique Wine Industry. It is limited to 5,000 bottles, and each bottle only costs 1,200 Void Coins."

"No need, I'll just wait here." Lin Qing waved his hand.

——This is the only free area.

"Yes." The waiter remained respectful and left immediately.

"What the hell? One thousand two hundred Void Coins for a bottle of wine?" Lin Qing muttered to himself.

Judging from the purchasing power of Void Coins that he had learned along the way, an initial stage Void Boat was only worth two to three million Void Coins.

What kind of wine is this? Only two thousand bottles can be exchanged for a void boat?

You know, there are many void creatures in the second-level civilization who cannot afford a void boat.

"However, in this huge White Pagoda world, there is not even a single successor who meets the requirements of the inheritance of the tombs in the Vacuum Tomb..."

Lin Qing felt helpless as he sensed the 'boundless heart' in his body that was motionless.

He became a tomb keeper and after merging with the Infinite Heart, the Infinite Heart would automatically sense the life forms in the space it was in. According to the requirements of many tomb owners, it would observe time and space on its own and search for a suitable successor.

A cosmic domain or a secret realm in the void, as long as the space is not divided, is within its perception range.

But ever since he entered the White Tower world, the Infinite Heart has not reacted at all.

Obviously, according to the standards of many tombs, none of the creatures in this world meet the requirements.

"However, the interior of Holy Star City seems to be in another dimension. Let's take a look after entering Holy Star City..."

Lin Qing was not in a hurry either.

Anyway, the most urgent task at the moment is to cultivate oneself and become a void creature as soon as possible.

It would be best if we could find a successor who meets the standards, but there is nothing we can do if we can’t.

"First, I have to gain a foothold in Holy Star City."

Lin Qing secretly thought about his next plan.

Suddenly--

"brat."

Suddenly, a voice with a hint of laughter rang in my mind: "Your clone ability is quite good, tenth-level power, right?"

Lin Qing was a little surprised and turned to look.

He saw a tall girl in black standing at the door of the hall not far away, holding a glass of wine in her hand, looking at him with interest.

Lin Qing activated the secret technique to observe, but was unable to see the other party's life level.

As a creature of the void, the Blood Cauldron King was also unable to see the other party's level.

"It's the Lord of the Void!"

Lin Qing immediately confirmed this in his heart.

The secret technique of detection he used came from the Beginning Realm. No matter how sophisticated the concealment method used by the other party was, it could not be more sophisticated than the secret technique of the Beginning Realm.

Moreover, the clone of the Blood Cauldron King is also a creature of the void. Logically speaking, he should be able to tell it out as long as it is a creature of the void.

It is said that although there is a huge gap in strength between the creatures in the void, it is only because they have mastered more and more of the true nature of the void and their magical skills have become more profound and mysterious, but their life levels are the same.

Only the Lord of the Void who masters the rules of space can completely surpass the void creatures in terms of life level!
"A great figure like the Lord of the Void actually came to talk to me?"

At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Lin Qing's mind.

Finally, he responded: "You can actually tell?"

His clone is only connected to him by consciousness, so even if it is the Lord of the Void, it should be difficult to confirm that the Blood Cauldron King is his clone.

The black-clothed girl smiled and transmitted the message: "There is a secret consciousness connection between the clones. I just happened to have learned this kind of secret technique."

Lin Qing was silent for a moment, then said in a voice transmission: "As the Lord of the Void, you can obviously go directly into Holy Star City, why are you waiting here?"

"You actually guessed it?" The girl in black looked at Lin Qing in surprise.

She also clearly felt the other party's neither humble nor arrogant, almost equal attitude, as if he had seen many strong people before and didn't care at all that she was a master of the void.

Normally speaking, the gap between void creatures and void masters is huge, no matter their status or strength.

Most void creatures would probably tremble in fear when facing a void master, not daring to show the slightest disrespect. It would be amazing if they could remain calm on the surface.

Only those with ridiculously powerful backgrounds can do this.

"The Holy Lord guessed correctly. This little fellow is indeed from the three holy places..."

At this moment, the girl in black became more and more certain.

"I am also very curious."

She smiled, "Although you are not the Lord of the Void, you should not be reluctant to give up the few Void Coins you brought to the city, right?"

"I have no money. I didn't have a single Void Coin when I left my hometown." Lin Qing said calmly.

"No money?" The girl in black was a little surprised. She didn't expect this to be the reason.

However, it is said that when the geniuses of the three holy places leave their hometowns for training, the higher-ups of the holy places will indeed set up various difficulties - such as starting from scratch, starting over by taking over another body, or even blocking their memories and sending them directly to those backward civilizations...all kinds of training are possible.

Therefore, this incredible situation made her feel that it was more in line with the geniuses of the three legendary holy places.

"Do you need my help?" asked the girl in black.

"No need." Lin Qing said, "I can be self-reliant."

In fact, he also wanted to accept the help of the Lord of the Void, but he didn't want to get too involved, nor could he accept help from everyone, otherwise it would be too unreasonable.

Now he deliberately disguises himself as a genius from the three holy places. If he can accept help from others at will, how could he be without money now?
Accepting it would only arouse suspicion.

"Oh? Okay." The girl in black also had some guesses in her mind. It seems that 'self-reliance' is a kind of training?
She was also very clear in her mind that the wealth that a genius from the Holy Land could access might be even greater than her own wealth. If she just gave a little help, others would simply look down on her.

"However, in Holy Star City, you can't go anywhere without money." The black-clothed girl said, "Are you going into the city like this?"

Lin Qing glanced at her, shook his head helplessly, sighed deliberately, and said, "Why do you, the Lord of the Void, care so much about me? It seems... the Lord of the Secret Realm of the White Tower Civilization has also discovered me?"

The girl in black was stunned.

She also knew that she asked too many questions, which probably made the little guy a little impatient, but she did not feel angry. Instead, she admired him in her heart, thinking that he was worthy of being a genius from the three holy places and was indeed arrogant.

As for all the void creatures she had met before, if they were lucky enough to receive such care and greetings from her, which one would not be flattered and respectful?
How could he be impatient? The genius of the Holy Land was different.

She sighed secretly, then smiled apologetically and said, "It can't be helped. My White Tower Civilization rarely welcomes people like you, so the Holy Lord sent me to take a look and see if you need anything. It can also be considered as getting to know you."

"I'm just here to practice." Lin Qing said calmly, "I just want to practice in a low profile, so don't disturb me."

Mainly, he was worried that he would get too entangled. If the White Tower civilization publicized him as a genius from the Holy Land, that would be a bit troublesome and he couldn't stand the test.

"Practice?" The girl in black nodded slightly.

Although she felt that the conditions of the White Tower civilization were far inferior to those of the Holy Land, perhaps this was a kind of training for them?

"If there's anything I can help you with, just tell me." The black-clothed girl said casually, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Lin Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "Then it's enough for you to give me a copy of the information about Holy Star City. It's a fair trade, and I'll buy it from you."

"Fair trade?" The girl in black couldn't help but wonder, is this the law of tempering?
She smiled and said, "Of course, but... according to the current standard value of the intelligence market, the most detailed and highest-level intelligence about Holy Star City here will cost about 3 billion Void Coins, and normal intelligence that does not involve secrets will also cost 5 million Void Coins. Don't you have no money now?"

Three billion Void Coins? ?
Lin Qing forced himself to control the twitching of his eyes, remained calm, and said, "Normal information is enough."

"Can you come up with five million Void Coins?" The black-clothed girl laughed, "Didn't you just say that you didn't even have the money to go into the city?"

"It's because I don't have money."

Lin Wei nodded slightly, then flipped his hand and took out a piece of green parchment with a lot of strange symbols on it, and said, "It just so happens that my clone and I got some spoils of war before. I'll sell them to you now, or I'll sell them after I get into the city and buy them from you. How do you think?"

“This is…” The black-clothed girl took a look at it, her beautiful eyes brightened, and she said, “The heart and mouth skin of the Abyss Demon Elephant?”

She couldn't help but glance at the Blood Cauldron King's clone and said, "Your clone can actually kill the Abyss Demon Elephant? It's quite powerful. Your clone is already so strong, but your original body hasn't broken through yet. Do you want to refine your own divine weapon?"

Lin Qing knew that she had misunderstood, so she didn't explain, but just asked: "How much is this thing worth in Holy Star City?"

The black-clothed girl smiled and said, "As a servant species of the Star Abyss Demon Clan, the Abyss Demon Elephant generally has the strength of the fourteenth level of the Star Abyss. As the main material of the five-color chaos artifact, it is generally worth twelve million void coins, and sometimes it can be as high as one thousand three or fourteen."

"Not bad." Lin Weiqing nodded slightly.

He was secretly shocked in his heart that the Abyss Demon Elephant actually had the strength of the fourteenth level of the Star Abyss?
"Then sell it to me?" The black-clothed girl said, "It just so happens that I have also invested in and run a store in Holy Star City, which is dedicated to buying these precious materials. Main materials such as the Abyss Demon Elephant are rare. I will give you 13 million Void Coins?"

Lin Qing said calmly: "One thousand and two, a fair trade is fine."

"As expected of you, you are really arrogant." The black-clothed girl smiled and asked, "Do you want cash or transfer it to you from the Second Universe Network?"

"Cash, please." Lin Qing said.

"Okay." The black-clothed girl waved her sleeves and immediately handed Lin Qing a silver-gray crystal that looked like a crystal diamond, saying, "There are seven million void coins in this space diamond."

Lin Qing reached out and took it, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

With these seven million void coins, it can be considered as a certain amount of starting capital in Holy Star City.

"Here, this is information worth five million."

The black-clothed girl handed Lin Qing a transparent chip and a black metal plate with a pattern on it. "And there's also a VIP card for my store. Don't refuse. Anyone with a transaction volume of over 10 million can get a VIP card."

Lin Qing took it and took a look, "Wanxing Group? Tianbaoxing Company?"

"Yes." The black-clothed girl smiled, "If you want to sell materials or buy anything in the future, you have to take care of my business first."

"Just a fair trade." Lin Qing said.

"Of course." The girl in black smiled and nodded.

Having said that, she has actually contacted the head of the group and ordered his subordinates to treat the guests with this VIP card as the top priority, and any materials or purchase price must satisfy the other party.

Lin Qing accepted these things and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The decision to disguise himself as a genius from a level 2.9 civilization turned out to be the right one.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain where the guiding mark came from. It would be better to play along and make the misunderstanding worse.

To be on the safe side, he did not ask for much benefit, otherwise it would be more likely to cause trouble.

Just asking for fairness and justice is enough.

In this cold universe, fairness and justice are the most precious and rare things.

As for the next plan, he planned to first understand the situation in Holy Star City and then decide how to develop.

"Speaking of which..." The black-clothed girl asked with a smile: "I don't know your name yet. You can call me 'Fei Yan'."

"Jingguang." Lin Qing said casually: "It's just a pseudonym."

The girl in black nodded slightly, looked at him again, and asked, "Is the appearance also fake?"

"of course."

Lin Qing said: "If you can see that, I would admire you."

"I can't tell at all." The black-clothed girl exclaimed, "I should be the one admiring you."

Lin Qing said casually: "It's just relying on the influence of our ancestors."

He didn't know whether the Lord of the Void had any special lie detection methods, so he told the truth from beginning to end.

Of course, these are all true words that may cause misunderstanding.

To the black-clothed girl, the meaning naturally changed. She thought he was talking about the inheritance given by the ancestors of the holy land, and she was more impressed by the excellence of the geniuses of the three holy lands.

"Okay, now that we've met, I should leave now." The black-clothed girl smiled and said, "See you again if we're lucky."

Lin nodded slightly and said nothing.

The girl in black glanced at him and then disappeared into the VIP room.

As she left, she also sent a message to the person in charge of entering and leaving Holy Star City: "Ten minutes later, tell them that there is a new quota for entering the city. Don't let this person wait too long."

……

Although he now has seven million in his pocket, Lin Qing does not waste money and continues to wait in the VIP lounge.

At the same time, he also began to read the intelligence about Holy Star City that was worth five million.

Although the information was huge, with his ability to receive information, he quickly read it through carefully.

As expected, the information is worth five million Void Coins, and it is indeed quite detailed.

"This is... Holy Star City?"

While Lin Qing was secretly shocked, he also felt a little ecstatic in his heart: "I came to the right place, there really is hope for me to transform into a void creature!"
