Swallowing the Stars, I am the Lord of the Galaxy

"and many more."

He suddenly jumped up again.

"You said you'd give it to me? The whole set? Not a loan? Not a rental?"

Xingchen was amused by his reaction: "Of course I'll give it to you. But there's a small condition."

King Zhenyan immediately took a half-step back warily: "I knew it! What are the conditions?"

"you……"

Xingchen deliberately dragged out her tone, watching as Zhenyan Wang tensed up, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Just kidding. All you have to do from now on is join the Star Palace and work for it."

King Zhenyan was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly sprang to his feet: "You fucking tricked me?!"

He grabbed a bottle and was about to smash it.

Xingchen laughed and dodged aside: "Don't get excited, don't get excited! Seriously, this is the only condition. You can take the treasure and use it as you please. My Xingchen Palace has no restrictions on you whatsoever, you can rest assured about that."

King Zhenyan slowly lowered the wine bottle, his expression shifting from shock to confusion, finally settling on an indescribably complex look. He slowly walked back to his seat and sat down heavily.

"madman."

he murmured.

"You're absolutely insane."

Xingchen smiled and poured him a full glass of wine: "So, deal?"

King Zhenyan stared at the wine glass for a long time, then suddenly grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth: "Damn it, only a fool wouldn't agree to such a good thing! But..."

A sly glint flashed in his eyes.

"We need to add another case of 'Star River Drunk'!"

"make a deal!"

Xingchen laughed and raised his glass.

Two wine glasses clinked together in mid-air, making a crisp sound.

As for True King Yan, Xingchen naturally wanted to win him over. True King Yan's potential was beyond doubt; given the resources, breaking through to the Venerable level would be no problem at all.

With his help, we certainly won't be stuck at the level of being invincible for countless years.

With the addition of Venerable Biyou, the Star Palace will then have two Venerables in charge.

Including himself, that's three Venerables in terms of combat strength.

Not only that.

Xingchen has another candidate in mind for joining the Star Palace.

That poor bastard.

Oh no, that High Venerable One.

Venerable Qianwu, King of Qianwu Kingdom!

He, Xingchen, knew very well that he had been suffocating under the weight of his debts for countless eons.

At that time, Xingchen will directly use the Treasure Points to pay off his debt, and then use the Treasure Set as bait.

I refuse to believe that the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom won't take the bait!

At that time, the power of the Star Palace will expand rapidly!

Aside from the five major powers, the Star Palace is undoubtedly the sixth major power!

Xingchen threw his head back and laughed, the wine in his cup swaying slightly with his laughter: "Good! From now on, you, True King Yan, will be a member of the Elders' Council of my Xingchen Palace!"

"and many more."

King Zhenyan put down his wine cup and raised an eyebrow.

"The Elders' Council? What does that mean?"

"The Elders' Council."

A glint of light flashed in Xingchen's eyes.

"This is now the highest decision-making body in the Star Palace. Every elder has the right to participate in the decision-making of major affairs of the Star Palace and enjoys the highest level of resource allocation rights."

King Zhenyan nodded thoughtfully: "That sounds impressive. So who are the elders on the board now?"

"There are only two at the moment."

Xingchen held up two fingers.

"One is Elena, who is in charge of the daily operations of the Star Palace. You can also think of her as the second-in-command of the Star Palace; the other is Venerable Biyou, who is in charge of external conquests."

"Venerable Biyou..."

King Zhenyan sighed inwardly.

He naturally knew about Venerable Biyou. This high-ranking Venerable of the demon race was enslaved by the stars. Venerable Biyou's strength was no less than that of his teacher, Venerable Jinyu!

"I really don't know how you did it. And all these alien kings in your Star Palace, aren't they all alien races you enslaved?"

Xingchen nodded.

"These are all free laborers. I went to the Star Tower specifically to capture them. It took me a lot of effort back then."

King Zhenyan was speechless.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at this."

Chapter 105 A generous move

Xingchen shook his head.

"No, no, no, I'm actually not that strong in this area. It's just that my combat power is too strong, and these guys can't resist me. To tell you the truth, right now, unless it's the Lord of the Universe, I have no fear even if it's the Overlord of the Universe!"

King Zhenyan gasped, "You freak, I really don't know how you cultivate, you're a monster."

"Alright, this is my talent, something you can't envy. It's you who's in it."

“You are now the third elder of the Star Palace, a very prestigious position.”

King Zhenyan stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, then suddenly grinned: "So, what exactly am I, as an elder, supposed to do?"

"It's very simple."

Xingchen raised three fingers.

"First, to have a title; second, to be able to take action when necessary, though that's not needed now; third..."

A sly glint flashed in his eyes.

"Help me find some promising newcomers. I also plan to cultivate my own geniuses in the Star Palace, just like in the Qianwu Secret Realm!"

King Zhenyan laughed heartily: "This is a good deal! Alright, leave this job to me!"

"Come on, I'll take you to see Elena."

Xingchen put down her wine cup, rose, and led Zhenyan Wang through the dazzling palace corridors. The star-gold inlaid on the walls along the way emitted a soft glow, and with each step, the ground rippled with starlight.

King Zhenyan clicked his tongue in amazement as he walked: "Your palace, even the floors are paved with starlight gold?"

Xingchen chuckled: "It's just a little trinket, worthless."

After passing through three folding doors, they arrived at a hemispherical hall. A three-dimensional star map, a hundred meters in diameter, floated in the center of the hall, with countless points of light flowing within it. Elena was intently adjusting the star map's parameters and only turned around when she heard footsteps.

"Palace Master."

Elena bowed slightly, her silver-white combat suit outlining her perfect curves.

"introduce."

Xingchen patted Zhenyan King on the shoulder.

"This is the newly joined Elder Zhenyan."

"what do you mean?"

“Enter his identity information.”

Elena quickly brought up the light screen: "The onboarding process is ready. True Immortal, please infuse your divine power into this authentication device."

She handed me a hexagonal crystal.

"This is the latest biometric system developed by Star Palace."

King Zhenyan curiously accepted the crystal. As divine power was injected, the crystal burst forth with dazzling golden light, and complex authentication runes appeared inside.

Identity verification completed

[Privilege Level: Elder Council]

[Resource Quota: S-level]

"That's really efficient."

"I am impressed," Zhenyan Wang exclaimed, watching Elena's fingers fly across the virtual keyboard as she entered his information into the system.

Xingchen smiled and said, "Elena has never disappointed me."

Elena smiled slightly and handed over a badge that shimmered with starlight: "This is your identity token, made of G-grade metal and equipped with a built-in micro-intelligent system. With this, you can access all public facilities in the Star Palace."

King Zhenyan toyed with the badge: "This token is made of good material."

"Combining communication, defense, and positioning into one."

Xingchen shrugged.

"It's just a little gadget."

These were all created by the stars for use in the Star Palace.

What happened next was something that King Zhenyan would never forget.

Xingchen raised his hand and parted the space, and seven streams of light flew out in succession, lining up in front of everyone.

"The Starfall Armor, a top-tier treasure."
