“Baron Huaxili, as far as I know, this high-quality energy block was left on an unmanned star by a cargo ship. When I was a pirate, I received news about it, but I didn’t have the opportunity to plunder it before I was caught. You’d better not think about hiding it from the Count.”

“There are so many stars in this star field, and there are 150 owned by Baron Huaxili alone, including two life planets and four mineral planets. You have made a fortune in the past thirty years, haven’t you? How can you even mention such a price of ten billion Tianhe coins?”

“It’s just a Poison Mist Mountain on the Aurora Planet, is our great master, Count Lin Zhen, not worthy of having such a low hill? There is no room for negotiation in this matter; the Poison Mist Mountain and the area within a thousand kilometers belong to our master’s territory. If we cannot reach an agreement on this, I believe the Baron would lose control of this star field.”

“No need for beauties, just convert them into cash. The master prefers money… ”

Huaxili gritted his teeth and glared at Stephen in front of him, his heart full of hatred for this former interstellar pirate.

This unexpected incident was not due to pirates, but the actual loss calculated was countless times worse than being plundered by interstellar pirates.

After all, when pirates come, you can still hide the good stuff, but not now. Stephen is familiar with everything in Virgo and can even calculate how much property Huaxili has.

Moreover, the other party negotiated terms one by one. In the past thirty years, Huaxili had accumulated approximately six or seven billion Tianhe coins, and now he was blackmailed into giving away fifty billion of them.

There was a cargo ship carrying high-quality energy blocks that had crashed on an unmanned star here. He had just discovered it not long ago. He didn’t dare to take action all at once and wanted to sell it little by little. The value was about thirty billion Tianhe coins, but Lin Zhen’s pirate group had moved ninety percent of it onto the Black Pearl.

Also, the Poison Mist Mountain on the Aurora Planet, a valuable place producing Poison Insect Crystals, was shamelessly demanded by Lin Zhen to be given to him as a warehouse area.

Even the beauties sent to Lin Zhen, hoping he would give some preferential treatment for Huaxili, were sent back by Lin Zhen, demanding Huaxili to convert them into cash, totaling a value of 200 million.

For Lin Zhen’s behavior of taking everything, Huaxili was furious but dared not speak out. Otherwise, with Lin Zhen’s friends, they would definitely leave nothing behind for the Huaxili family.

The wealth accumulated over the years was taken away by Lin Zhen, causing his heart to bleed.

“Lin Zhen… you are so cruel! Since you’re so heartless, I swear to take my revenge on you!”

“Hurry up and load the ship, we’re ready to leave.”

Lin Zhen directed the crew to load the energy blocks onto the spaceship.

In his hand, he held a purchase agreement: The owner of this star field, Baron Huaxili, voluntarily sold the Poison Mist Mountain on Aurora Planet and its surrounding area within a thousand kilometers to Empire Earl Lin Zhen for five billion Tianhe coins.

Of course, there was a record of this transaction. The two of them transferred the money in person at the Jade Star branch, and the purchase agreement was certified as valid and genuine.

However, all the money came from Huaxili himself. Lin Zhen simply took his money, deposited it, and transferred it back to him.

He knew that Huaxili must hate him to the bone, but Lin Zhen didn’t care too much. Huaxili’s strength wasn’t strong, and Aurora Planet was too far away from Earth. As long as he couldn’t find the wormhole, it would be difficult for him to reach Earth.

The Poison Mist Mountain was under martial law, and from now on, this territory belonged to Lin Zhen. He didn’t send too many people to manage it temporarily, just leaving two Gold and Silver Eagles of the Fifth Level Planetary to guard it until he was done with Earth’s affairs and could return.

Under the gaze of the people on Aurora Planet, the Black Pearl took off.

To the people of Aurora Planet, this Count seemed not so bad, at least he didn’t have any behavior of looting or harming civilians.

The Black Pearl just went invisible, and this planet’s technology couldn’t detect it at all. Now that the spaceship had more energy blocks, Lin Zhen could use it freely.

They broke through the atmosphere and made a U-turn, directly entering the depths of the Poison Mist Mountain.

Only a spaceship of the Black Pearl’s quality could be unaffected by the poisonous mist.

After passing through a large cave, they entered the wormhole directly.

A few minutes later, the spaceship emerged from Mount Olympus on Mars.

“Oh! What a beautiful starry sky!”

“Master, is this your hometown?”

“Idiot, the master’s hometown is Earth. We still need to travel for a while.”

It took Lin Zhen more than a day, about thirty hours, to reach Mars when he first came, but the return trip would be much faster, taking only about seven hours.

“Let’s go, head for Earth. I need to hurry back. The situation in my hometown is a bit tense.”

“Understood, Master. The route has been set, and the estimated arrival time is six hours and forty-five minutes!”

Ronnie agreed, and the spaceship suddenly accelerated, moving away from the surface of Mars.

“Four days have passed, and there’s still no trace of Lin Zhen?”

Ya Xuan asked the staff somewhat annoyed. The progress during this period was not smooth. Yan Qiyue couldn’t be found, and neither could Lin Zhen. Hua Xia people would never give up unless these two were captured.

But Hua Xia people don’t give up, and other countries on Earth still have hope.

Countess Diana was already very dissatisfied with his progress. If he didn’t give her an explanation, he would be in big trouble.

“Baron Ya Xuan, I’m so sorry, Lin Zhen has escaped to space, and our search team went looking for him, but he seemed to have disappeared in the stars. Maybe he’s already dead.”

“Impossible, his name is still on the Heavenly Star List. This guy definitely won’t go far. His hometown is here, his friends and family are here. Where can he go… wait a minute!”

Ya Xuan’s eyes suddenly lit up: “That’s right! We can’t find Lin Zhen, but we can catch his family. Yan Qiyue has lived for hundreds of years and has no relatives, but Lin Zhen is young, and he has parents and a girlfriend. As long as we catch them, Lin Zhen will definitely show up.”

“Sir, is this appropriate?”

“What’s inappropriate about it? They are not Empire citizens, just indigenous people without even an ID card. I can catch and kill them as I please.”

The staff member did not speak again as he forgot that they were not on the Jade Star.

“But sir, we have scanned before and found no trace of Lin Zhen’s family or his two girlfriends. If we don’t find these four people, other people probably won’t have much influence on Lin Zhen.”

“I know. According to my speculation, Lin Zhen is very cunning. From being able to alert the Hua Xia people in advance, he must have arranged for his family to be moved in advance.”

“So how do we find them?”

“Increase the power of the scanner, search every inch of Earth. His family must still be on Earth. Once it’s discovered that an area is covered by energy, it’s very likely that people are hidden there.”

“Understood, I’ll start right away.”

The staff member began operating the scanner, scanning every piece of land on Earth with the scanning light.

Starting from Asia, the scanning light did not miss any corner, even the underground air-raid shelters were scanned one by one.

“No findings in the Asia region…”

“Keep scanning, the Europe region!”

“No findings in the Europe region, Sir Ya Xuan.”

“Still able to hide, continue scanning the Africa region!”

“No findings in the Africa region!”

“Report, no findings in South America!”

“Report, no findings in North America too!”

Soon, the reports all went back to Ya Xuan, only the ancient god relics were not scanned, the remaining places were scanned, but there were no results.

Ya Xuan’s fingers gently tapped on the table: “They can’t live in the ancient god relics. Lin Zhen’s parents don’t have that ability and they definitely won’t live in the ocean. If they are not in these five big regions, then only Australia and Antarctica can be considered continents, and the remaining islands, don’t miss those places too.”

The scanning light continued to work, scanning the remaining lands on Earth one by one.

“Report, a one-square-kilometer shadow zone has been found on the Australian mainland.”

“Haha! It must be here. There’s only such a small area on Earth that cannot be scanned. It must be the refuge that Lin Zhen left for his family.”

Ya Xuan clapped excitedly: “It’s said that Lin Zhen’s two girlfriends just entered the Star Realm, and his parents are only War Generals. Their strength is not worth mentioning. Send a squadron to capture them now, remember, catch them alive.”

A squadron leader at the Satellite Stage led ten Comet Stage experts. Capturing Lin Zhen’s family was more than enough.

A spaceship left the war fortress and headed towards the Australian mainland.

Lin Zhen emerged from the bottom of the Bermuda sea.

He had already sensed the life scanner scanning the Australian continent. His family was there, hidden by Baggio with the help of the ascetic monks using secret methods on mutated beast skin to isolate the scanner, but at this time, they definitely could not hide.

As long as you were on Earth and your opponents were willing to search, you couldn’t hide.

Lin Zhen had been practicing time acceleration and resonating energy atoms under the sea these days.

The abundant water vapor on the seabed finally allowed Lin Zhen to resonate with the water atom, which was the third energy atom he resonated with.

His Dantian energy had long been accumulated to the point where it could break through, but he had been suppressing it. He would not be content to break through without resonating with the seven kinds of atoms.

His opponents moved a bit fast. In two hours, the Black Pearl would return to Earth.

Nothing can go wrong in these two hours!

Lin Zhen took out his small flying vehicle, and from the Bermuda waters, also flew towards the Australian mainland.
