Respectful Welcome!

The hall fell silent for a moment.

The assembled elders exchanged glances, their faces filled with helplessness and disdain, almost ashamed to be associated with him.

That's right, five times!

In just one day, they had been invited by the five island lords to visit them one after another.

Kong Mingze had said the same words five times!

However, "It's different, this time it's different!"

Kong Mingze's face showed no shame at being exposed. Instead, he said righteously:

"Island Lord Liang, you are walking the path of orthodox martial arts. How can the other four island lords be compared to you?"

"Even, if it weren't for those island lords blocking the way, with Island Lord Liang's second transformation, the 'Wave Devouring Manifestation,' you would have already secured the position of [Chief]!"

"It's just a pity..."

Kong Mingze sighed suddenly, shook his head again, and said with a solemn expression:

"Island Lord Liang, don't worry, Kong is still saying the same thing."

"When the [Chief] descends, I will definitely give my full support!"

"I... am different?"

Liang Feiyan stared at Kong Mingze's earnest expression, unable to see any sign of falsehood. The suspicion in her eyes gradually faded, and a smile bloomed.

"Old Kong, then I'll thank you in advance."

The small meeting ended harmoniously.

Outside the hall, the Alien Race elders walked out, their pace quickening unconsciously, as if there was something dirty behind them.

"Everyone, why are you walking so fast!"

Kong Mingze flashed in front of everyone, blocking their path, and lightly shook his feather fan.

"It's rare for everyone to be here, why not take this opportunity to have a good gathering?"

In an instant, brows furrowed, and they said angrily:

"Kong Mingze, you're confused, don't drag us down with you!"

"That's right, it's one thing for the island lords to be stimulated by the Four Saints Star System and be angry for a while, but why are you blindly joining in?"

"That's right, it's most important for us to be stationed here, stable and long-lasting. There's no need to risk it for the resource share they promised!"

"Heh, full support? Have you forgotten that Li Qingshan is the [Chief] designated by the 'Network'..."

"Everyone, don't worry!"

Kong Mingze's smile remained unchanged, his eyes swept over everyone, and he said meaningfully:

"Aren't you curious about who I'm giving my full support to... who exactly is it?"

Huh?!

In an instant, eyes widened, revealing surprise and doubt.

Subsequently, the elders followed Kong Mingze's footsteps and quietly disappeared...

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Four Saints Star System, Taotie Domain.

Inside a huge palace, the little fatty, covered in white, fleshy fat, squeezed beside a huge dining table, feasting.

Li Qingshan shook his head slightly and put down his chopsticks.

The little fatty immediately looked sideways in surprise, "Coach, aren't you going to eat anymore?"

"I should set off. You slowly... cultivate!"

Li Qingshan said with a faint smile, leaving his seat.

For the Taotie bloodline, "eating" itself is a way of cultivation.

In three days, after seeing the two old leaders, Gu Feng and Ming Shuang, he returned to Ziying Star, met Zhao Yang, and returned to Seven Stars Academy to see his old classmate, Mou Yu.

Afterwards, in the Third Reconnaissance District office, he reminisced with Bao Hetong and met Zhao Ran and Yang Xiaoyu, who were serving as section chiefs...

Before leaving, he originally wanted to see how the little fatty was doing in the Taotie Domain.

Now it seems that his previous worries were a bit superfluous.

"Okay, Coach, don't worry, I will definitely eat more!"

Little Fatty's mouth was greasy, and his face was full of happy smiles.

"Myriad Gold Ancestor said that I'm not fat, but getting closer to my ancestors. I'm still far, far away from the true Taotie's physique, and I need to eat a lot, a lot more!"

"Whatever makes you happy!"

Li Qingshan shook his head and chuckled, taking a step and disappearing into the layers of space...

The intersection of the Four Saints, The originally cold starry sky is now extremely lively!

Star Martial Hall's ships are docked in the void. Nearly a hundred research groups, thousands of researchers, are surrounding the Epoch Paragons.

Yang Zhixuan stared eagerly at the top ten Epoch Paragons, anxiously reminding them:

"After arriving at the Land of Return, you must be careful and cautious, and never be careless."

"You must know that your safety is not just your own business, but also concerns the future of my human martial arts..."

Each reminder only made Tu Xie and the others turn black, and gazes full of resentment simultaneously converged on the tardy youth.

For three days, some people were on vacation, but they stayed in space to be studied by a group of people, accompanying an old man to nag!

"Ahem!"

Li Qingshan coughed lightly, not wanting to stimulate everyone any further, and looked directly at Shi Feng.

"Councilor Shi, three days have passed, shouldn't we set off?"

As he spoke, his gaze fixed on the stone tablet. Last time, his eyesight was not enough, and he failed to see through the Star Realm rules. This time, he planned to take a good look at how the "road" was opened.

However, the familiar nebula vortex did not appear!

"The Land of Return is extremely mysterious, and we cannot find it."

Shi Feng explained simply, raising his hand and pointing to... the communicator.

Just as everyone was surprised, The void suddenly rippled with visible mesh-like patterns, mesh-like patterns covered with green data streams!

Green lines converged, starting from the stone tablet and leading straight into the depths of the starry sky.

The Network opens the way!

"Let's go!" Shi Feng raised his hand and pointed, smiling:

"This road will send you to the Land of Return, to Primal Island!"

"A 'road' intertwined between illusion and reality?"

Li Qingshan stepped onto the "green road" with curiosity. The other geniuses also suppressed the shock in their hearts and followed.

In an instant, the green light flourished, and the data networks seemed to come alive, carrying figures and disappearing into the depths of the starry sky...

Land of Return, Primal Island.

Although called an island, it is actually a huge landmass floating on the "Return Sea."

Up, down, left, right, all directions are surrounded by turbulent and violent rule currents.

At this moment, the center of the island is densely packed with people, with over a million figures gathered, a dark mass.

Buzz—!

Above the island, which should have been silent and completely repelled the fluctuations of technological creations, a crack shining with a rich green light suddenly opened without warning.

"It's starting!"

Before the crowd, Xiang Hong, Zhuang Yuanhua, Liang Feiyan, Ding Shan, and Shi Wentao each occupied a side, their eyes simultaneously fixed on the crack in the sky, and also on the Alien Race elders standing at the forefront.

"Let's not mince words! The position of [Chief] has always been held by the capable. Even if the 'Network' appoints someone, it's not unchangeable!"

Xiang Hong leaned on the Golden Blade, his eyes fixed on the other four, and said domineeringly:

"Being new here, today is the best time to challenge the position of [Chief]. Old Kong has agreed to give me his full support..."

"Hehe, who hasn't?" Zhuang Yuanhua was amused, shaking his head:

"Old Xiang, you don't think Old Kong only said this to you, do you?"

"Huh?!"

Xiang Hong frowned. Seeing that the other three had the same expression, his face darkened.

"Whether they support us or not is not important!"

Liang Feiyan said in a deep voice, gesturing for the others to look at the elders in front.

"The most important thing is that they have chosen to stand up!"

"As long as they come forward and question Li Qingshan first, we can justifiably provoke the [Chief] dispute!"

These words struck a chord with everyone.

They were just lacking an opportunity!

Boom!

A void rift suddenly opened, and a torrent of data cascaded down like a waterfall, tearing apart the thick, complex fog of chaotic rules that permeated the island's sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Figures followed closely behind this data torrent, stepping onto the solid, slightly cold, black rocky ground of Primal Island amidst the hum of space.

However, as each figure descended, everyone's eyes widened involuntarily.

Five... ten... twenty... fifty...

One hundred and one!

In an instant, pairs of eyes glazed over, and everyone looked bewildered.

News of the Primal First Seat had already spread, but no one had said that in addition to the Primal First Seat, there were 100 other Epoch Paragons from the Four Saints Star System coming!

In the past, even one more person every ten thousand years was already excessive.

Now, it had directly become 101 people?!

Xiang Hong and the others suppressed the shock in their hearts, their gazes fixed on the leading youth.

Standing upright in black robes, he was curiously looking around – Li Qingshan!

And the elders standing at the forefront, led by Kong Mingze, were stepping forward to greet him.

"The elders are taking action!"

Instantly, the few of them held their breath, excitement hidden in their eyes.

And Liang Feiyan, in addition to her excitement, couldn't help but smile slightly.

How could the support of ninth-order elders not be important?

It was just that Xiang Hong and the others couldn't get it.

But she was different, Kong Mingze had personally...

Her thoughts were cut off halfway.

Her smile froze on her face.

Because the imagined "difficult questioning" didn't arrive!

Liang Feiyan opened her eyes wide, staring blankly as the refined middle-aged man, holding a feather fan, walked up to the youth, and then...

Cupped his hands in a bow?!

Behind Kong Mingze, the ninth-order elders also bowed in unison, respectfully saying, "Welcome, Primal First Seat, Li Qingshan, to Primal Island!"
