The palace, the reception hall.
The grand, elegant hall had sofas and fruit platters in front of them.
Dancers were performing below.
For a moment, Mu Yang felt as if he had returned to Planet Vegeta.
Planet Vegeta had given him the same feeling.
"Please, have a seat." Cabba was unfailingly courteous, without a hint of a prince's arrogance. He sat down first.
Mu Yang followed him onto the sofa, a smile playing on his lips as he studied Cabba with an inscrutable look.
Cabba was a little at a loss.
"Wow! Your home is beautiful, Cabba!" Caulifla grinned. "You really are our Saiyan prince."
"Mm-hmm." Kale bowed her head and nodded.
"Caulifla, Kale, you two..." Cabba naturally recognized Caulifla and Kale. After all, the three of them had been classmates.
"We're supposed to be best friends, after all." Caulifla casually hooked an arm around Cabba's neck.
"Caulifla, let go!" Cabba was having trouble breathing.
"Don't be such a stranger!" Caulifla laughed.
"Caulifla, let him go," Mu Yang said.
As soon as the words left his mouth,
Caulifla let go of Jaco.
"Cough, cough..." Jaco hurriedly gulped down a couple of breaths of fresh air, his complexion gradually improving.
"Are you all right, Prince Jaco?" Mu Yang asked, his tone teasing.
"I'm fine." Jaco looked at Mu Yang gratefully.
If Mu Yang hadn't been there,
Caulifla's personality would have been such a trial!
"Heh..." Mu Yang's smile was a little meaningful.
He felt quite favorably toward Cabba, who looked remarkably like his younger brother, Vegeta.
Considering that Universe 6 and Universe 7 were mirror universes,
it wasn't surprising.
Cabba = Vegeta
Caulifla = Son Goku
Sometimes, Mu Yang even wondered: if Cabba and Caulifla got married later in the original story, would that mean Vegeta and Son Goku would get married too?
The more he thought about it, the more absurd it seemed, yet things did seem to be heading that way.
But now that Mu Yang had arrived, Caulifla was no longer Cabba's to pursue.
"May I ask, sir, are you an ancient Saiyan?" Cabba glanced at Mu Yang's tail and asked.
"No, I'm not~" Mu Yang's smile grew more suggestive. "My name is Mu Yang. I'm a Saiyan from Universe 7. In your terms, 'parallel universe' would be more accurate."
"I see." Cabba rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment.
"Cabba! You actually believe him?" Caulifla looked at her classmate as if she were meeting him for the first time.
"There's nothing strange about it. If I had to choose between ancient Saiyans coming back to life and parallel universes, I'd rather believe in parallel universes." Cabba rubbed the back of his head and smiled.
"Then, sir, what brings you here?" Cabba's expression suddenly turned serious, his face growing intimidating.
"Humph." Mu Yang's lips curled up. "I merely want to grant Planet Sadala a great boon."
"A boon?" Cabba looked puzzled.
"Super Saiyan," Mu Yang replied.
"Super Saiyan?" Cabba looked even more confused.
Super Saiyan?
What was that? He'd never heard of it.
If Cabba hadn't been so good-natured, he might have thought Mu Yang was making fun of him and kicked him out.
"Super Saiyan means transforming with golden hair. It's an especially cool transformation!" Caulifla chimed in at just the right moment.
"Golden hair, and especially cool?" Cabba was even more confused. He scratched his head.
"I'll show you outside." Mu Yang smiled faintly, took a couple of bites of an apple, then rose from the sofa and walked out alone.
The guards posted at the door tried to stop him.
Mu Yang merely glanced at one of them.
The guard felt as if he'd been struck by lightning. His legs trembled, and he didn't dare move an inch.
Cabba and Caulifla exchanged a glance, then followed him together.
Kale followed behind them as well.
The group made their way outside the palace.
Mu Yang took a deep breath, then opened his eyes. In the blink of an eye, his hair turned gold, his eyes turned blue, and golden flames blazed around him.
"How incredible!" Cabba's eyes lit up at once.
"Hehe, this is my big brother." Caulifla looked immensely proud.
"Mm-hmm." Kale nodded with a smile.
After noticing their reactions, Mu Yang took a deep breath and dispelled his Super Saiyan form. His hair turned black again.
"Sir, would you be willing to transform into a Super Saiyan and spar with me?" Cabba stepped forward.
"Of course." Mu Yang agreed.
Cabba took a deep breath and assumed a solemn stance. "Forgive me, Mu Yang!"
Cabba swung his fist and charged.
Mu Yang transformed into a Super Saiyan in an instant and raised one finger.
The moment his finger touched Cabba's fist,
the world-shattering power behind the punch vanished completely, stopped effortlessly by that single finger.
"This... this..." Cabba was so shocked he couldn't speak.
Super Saiyan.
Just how terrifying was this power?
He'd stopped Cabba's attack with only one finger.
"Would you like to keep going?" Mu Yang asked Cabba with a smile.
Cabba took a deep breath and sprang back. "Your strength is incredible, sir. I'm no match for you!"
"Then will you give up?"
"No. I'd like to ask you to teach me how to transform into a Super Saiyan," Cabba said earnestly.
"Then what makes you think I'd teach you?" Mu Yang asked with a slight smile.
Cabba closed his eyes and took another deep breath. Then he opened them, his gaze gradually growing resolute.
"To help the Saiyans better maintain peace in the universe, I beg you to take me as your disciple and teach me!" As he spoke, Cabba knelt before Mu Yang.
Mu Yang smiled. He had accomplished one-third of what he'd come to Universe 6 to do.
[ Ding~ You sensed Cabba's resolve. Your heaven-defying comprehension automatically granted you the Human Emperor Method. ]
This was the reward he'd gained from Cabba.
He'd come to Planet Sadala hoping to trigger heaven-defying comprehension rewards from Cabba, Caulifla, and Kale!
Cabba had triggered one first, which was a little beyond Mu Yang's expectations.
He'd originally thought Caulifla and Kale, the first to acknowledge him as their big brother, would be the first to trigger rewards.
It seemed he would have to teach Caulifla and Kale the Super Saiyan transformation before he could obtain heaven-defying comprehension rewards from them.
Mu Yang considered this in silence.
As for the Human Emperor Method he'd gained from Cabba,
he took a quick look at it. This was another heaven-defying method!
As long as he became the ruler of a nation and earned everyone's recognition, he could share in their fortune and cultivate with its aid, achieving twice the results with half the effort.
That wasn't all. He could also draw on the power of the Human Emperor to fight his enemies.
But there was one problem.
Mu Yang didn't have a country right now.
