Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 15 The Passionate Mist Star King
Surrounded by more than ten thousand people, Zhou Lin was extremely ostentatious and earned some reputation in this prosperous wealthy area.

It hadn't been too many years since the Genius War, and the residents of the imperial capital still had some impression of this monster who had managed to break into the top ten of the universe's overall ranking.

"Zhou Lin? Is that the Zhou Lin from the genius battle?"

"That's right. He was still at the star level back then. How many years have passed and yet he's already been able to earn the respect of an immortal?"

"I don't know when I can be so impressive."

Passersby on both sides of the street were talking about it.

Zhou Lin sensed the increase in his reputation and wished there would be more such scenes, preferably a circle around the entire Imperial Capital Star.

[Congratulations to the host for reaching the required reputation and receiving the reward: Unparalleled Sword.]

"Why is it a semi-artifact?" Zhou Lin was surprised. He had even received the reward of an artifact, so why was he given a semi-artifact now?

What use is a semi-artifact to him now?

[The system's rewards are random, but there will be upper and lower limits based on the host's cultivation level.]

The rules are very simple. For example, if his current cultivation level is demigod, then the minimum he can obtain is a semi-artifact.

The upper limit will not be too outrageous.

For example, it is completely impossible to obtain a true artifact or even a void divine weapon at the extraordinary stage.

Luojin City is extremely vast. Zhou Lin's team walked for more than ten minutes before reaching the northernmost end of the city.

A few months ago, this place was still a barren area, but since Zhou Lin's appointment notice was issued, a new city was quickly developed.

In the very center of the North City is Zhou Lin’s manor, which covers an area of ​​over a thousand square kilometers and is extremely luxurious.

After the Supervisory Envoy takes office, the Virtual Universe Company will definitely help build a residence. Moreover, as one of the four giants, a manor of thousands of kilometers is worthy of Zhou Lin's status.

This is the most prosperous city on the Imperial Capital Star. The value of a manor covering hundreds of kilometers is no less than that of a normal galaxy.

And with Zhou Lin moving in, the value of the surrounding land will rise rapidly, turning the formerly barren land into endless prosperity.

"Are you satisfied?" King Wuxing said with a laugh, "This manor of yours took quite a while to prepare. The materials, the furnishings, and the servants were all personally selected by King Hongming, King Liuxu, and me."

Land occupation is only one aspect; the materials used in the manor are the most important.

Just to build this manor, it would cost an ordinary immortal all his wealth.

"Satisfied, satisfied." Although Zhou Lin's residence in the primitive secret realm is larger, the materials used are not as luxurious.

There are millions of servants in the manor.

The vast majority of them are from a group that looks similar to Zhou Lin.

Entering the manor, Aido couldn't help but say, "The cost of building this place must have far exceeded the company's normal budget, right?"

"Of course," said the King of Mist Star. "We paid all the extra costs out of our own pockets. We didn't use a single cent of the company's money."

Aido's words were a secret reminder to Zhou Lin that the value of this manor was even more outrageous than he thought.

The corridors throughout the manor are paved with fallen embers.

The surrounding gardens and lawns are also planted with colorful plant life.

There are levels from the universe to the realm master.

In the distance, there are pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water, beautiful scenery, and a miniature star hanging high in the sky.

"King Wuxing is so kind to me." Zhou Lin smiled and said, "I can't refuse such kindness. I am truly grateful."

He came here just to gain reputation points.

Zhou Lin was naturally comfortable with the cooperation of the three giants, including the King of Mist Star. Zhou Lin would not just sit there and catch them for corruption, as that would only make him enemies, and there was no need for that either.

Anyone who comes to this position has to put money in his pocket.

King Wuxing and the others had to be even more respectful of Zhou Lin, as he was of noble status. Apart from being a member of the original secret realm, he was also the only disciple of the Lord of the Sky Eclipse Palace.

In terms of status and strength, the Lord of the Sky Eclipse Palace is almost the Lord of the Universe.

"It'll take King Hong Ming and his men half a day to arrive," King Wu Xing asked, seemingly seeking Zhou Lin's opinion. "Our Virtual Universe Company branch is planning to hold a welcome party for His Highness. What do you think?"

Zhou Lin shook his head.

What's the point of holding a welcome party?

There are only a few immortal gods and other royal families in the entire Luojin Universe.

What Zhou Lin wants is reputation, not just showing off.

"There's no need for a banquet or anything like that." Zhou Lin walked into the building ahead and casually replied, "It's too energy-consuming. I also know what you, King of Mist Star, mean."

King Misty Star's expression remained unchanged, but he was a little panicked inside.

"What does it mean? Is this kid going to tear his face off?" Countless thoughts flashed through King Mist Star's mind.

If Zhou Lin was determined to investigate him, he would definitely be able to obtain a lot of evidence of corruption. Although he would not be in danger of his life as a king, he would inevitably face imprisonment.

"When Red Pluto and the others come back, we can just get together privately." Zhou Lin added, "I really don't like to make a fuss, so don't think too much."

What's the point of meeting a group of ordinary immortals or even world masters?

In terms of strength, Zhou Lin holds a divine weapon and has an excellent understanding of the laws. Coupled with the first-grade true meaning, he can definitely kill an ordinary ninth-level realm master.

If he could comprehend the second level of Hundong's true meaning and make another breakthrough in the law, it would be possible for him to fight against the immortals with the body of a domain master.

"Alright, alright." King Misty Star said helplessly, "Then I'll leave first. I'll come to your manor to get together after King Red Pluto and the others return."

Zhou Lin accompanied King Wuxing all the way out of the manor before returning to his residence.

"This King of Mist Star has probably embezzled more than I thought." Zhou Lin murmured in his heart.

The other party was so enthusiastic that he tried almost everything to please him. The price of the manor he gave him was far beyond that of an ordinary galaxy.

Zhou Lin smiled, then went to the quiet room to start practicing. As long as the King of Mist Star and his men behaved themselves in the next few years and didn't engage in corruption in front of him, what happened in the past would not be important.

The three of them have lost the possibility of becoming the strongest.

Because he is comprehending the two source world systems, Zhou Lin also attaches great importance to the spiritual aspect. Being exposed to too much worldly atmosphere will affect his progress.

Look at the King of Mist Star, all he studies is how to make more money.

Where is the pride of the strong?

"Your Highness, the items you ordered have just been delivered to the manor."

A very beautiful female world master walked in. She was the housekeeper in charge of the entire manor, and her name was Yi Yue.

The address of the nutrition cabin that Zhou Lin applied for before was naturally Luojin Imperial Capital Star, which was sent to him right after he arrived.

It takes quite a while to advance from the first level of Domain Lord to the ninth level. Fortunately, Zhou Lin was just pretending to soak in the nutrient chamber, as he could actually use the system to strengthen himself.

"Yiyue, what are the administrative planets of the Falling Embers Universe?"

Zhou Lin suddenly asked.
