Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation Chapter 146 - 142 Borrowed Knife

Ding Huan felt that Li Deting was not of a benevolent nature; most people here were martial arts cultivators, only this guy cultivated the Dao.

From the fluctuations in his aura, Ding Huan reckoned the other's strength should be around the fourth level of gene cultivators.

From the beginning till now, Li Deting seed to have been speaking on his behalf.

Therefore, to Li Deting's invitation, Ding Huan did not refuse.

Li Deting's residence in the market was very simple, just a living room and a bedroom, besides that, there was a separate cultivation room.

The household was also simple; it was just him and a maid.

After inviting Ding Huan over, the table had already been set with food.

Clearly, he had prepared everything beforehand.

"Thanks, Captain Ting, for your discerning eye."

Ding Huan took the initiative to raise his glass to Captain Ting and then drank it all in one go.

This sowhat surprised Li Deting. The reason he had waited for Ding Huan to co over before pouring the wine was to make Ding Huan trust him.

Later, he would also drink first as a toast, showing that there was nothing wrong with his wine.

Even when eating dishes, he was ready; he would take a bite of each dish first.

But what he didn't expect was that Ding Huan seed to trust him a lot, going ahead and downing his drink first.

Sothing was off. Wasn't he afraid of being poisoned?

Or had he guessed wrong? Was Ding Huan not the kind of person with deep sches and always acted only after ticulous planning?

No, that shouldn't be it. If it really was just luck, then that luck was too astounding, right?

However, he quickly ca to a realization and laughed:

"Good, Brother Ding's discerning eye is truly remarkable. I'll drink up too."

After finishing his drink, he then picked up his chopsticks and invited Ding Huan to eat.

Soon, he noticed that Ding Huan was eating carelessly, just picking up dishes from in front of him, not just those he had tested for poison.

This made Li Deting think that if Ding Huan was not incredibly lucky, then his strength must be terrifyingly formidable.

Formidable enough not to be afraid of any poison.

His usual way of dealing with things forced Li Deting to believe that it wasn't just luck with Ding Huan.

Luck could be once or even twice, but not a third or fourth ti.

Setting aside where Ding Huan ca from, to arrive here safe and sound, relying purely on luck—Li Deting didn't even believe it himself.

"Brother Ding, I'm a person who likes making friends.

At first glance, I like you much more than I do Lord Jin. You should be cautious of this guy; he definitely won't let things go easily."

A few drinks down, Li Deting began to open his heart.

"Thanks, Captain Ting. I make it a point never to do things that would haunt my conscience."

Ding Huan didn't know what Li Deting ant and could only respond accordingly.

Li Deting suddenly asked:

"Brother Ding, do you know why Lord Jin isn't in Little Star Corner Market this ti?"

Ding Huan didn't answer; he knew Li Deting would continue speaking.

Sure enough, Li Deting lowered his voice:

"You must know that the surrounding star lands of the Four-direction Star Land we are in are all of the lowest level, right?"

Ding Huan nodded; he was aware of that.

"Therefore, everyone is eager to leave this star land and find a Daoist Star Land or what's called a Civilization Star Land."

Ding Huan beca interested:

"Brother Ting, are you saying Lord Jin has left Little Star Corner Market for this reason?"

Li Deting was quite satisfied with Ding Huan addressing him as Brother Ting, indicating that Ding Huan had high emotional intelligence, not the clueless type.

Thus, he hadn't guessed wrong.

Li Deting chuckled:

"Brother Ding, I don't know if your intention is to leave this star land, but if so, you really ought to thank ."

Ding Huan stood up and saluted Li Deting with a fist:

"Brother Ting, that is indeed my thought.

But I know it's difficult; even the Zhan Family Master of Zhan Changjing doesn't have a chance to leave this star land, let alone small figures like us."

Li Deting laughed heartily:

"Brother Ding, that's where the importance of information cos in. Zhan Changjing's senior naturally has the opportunity to leave, it's just a matter of timing."

"I must ask for your guidance," Ding Huan saluted once again.

Li Deting said:

"Brother Ding, you might not know that every hundred years, starships from Advanced Civilization Planets co to the Four-direction Star Land."

Ding Huan shook his head; this was indeed news to him, but even if he knew, it was as irrelevant to him as chicken ribs.

Up to this point, he hadn't infused himself with the Life Span Gene Potion.

For Ding Huan, the fusion of the Life Span Gene Potion was sothing he could do at any ti.

---

However, Ding Huan believed that if he could extend his life through cultivation, it was best not to rge with the Life Span Gene Potion.

If one day he could no longer improve his strength and his lifespan was insufficient, it wouldn't be too late to rge with the Life Span Gene Potion then.

Li Deting did not press the issue further,

"In the universe where Four-direction Star Land is located, although the civilization is primitive, many life planets are in a barbaric state.

But this Star Land has one great advantage, that is, it produces all kinds of top-notch stuff.

Such as million-year-old Stone Bamboo Marrow, a Chaos Lotus that can cleanse marrow and transform veins with just one, and the never-before-seen Mother Iron…"

Every ti Li Deting ntioned an item, Ding Huan's mind would automatically conjure up the preciousness of these things.

It seed that this knowledge existed in his mory, but why did this impoverished Star Land in this part of the universe produce so many good things?

"A hundred years ago, a spaceship from an Advanced Civilization Planet passed by here and collected a piece of Mother Iron, an item rumored to be a material for magical treasures.

I have never heard of what a Magical Treasure is, but I can guess that these things are invaluable."

Li Deting finished speaking and sighed, taking a drink.

Clearly, because he would no longer have the chance to go to an Advanced Civilization Planet.

Or perhaps because he had drunk too much alcohol, Li Deting beca more enthusiastic,

"When the senior of Zhan Changjing erged from seclusion, the spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet had just left. And his age had co to pass, if he didn't advance then, he would likely be trapped in the Foundation Establishnt Realm forever.

Therefore, the senior of Zhan Changjing couldn't wait a hundred years. He chose to step out of the Foundation Establishnt Realm early and created a new realm called the Dan Yun Realm.

Now the senior of Zhan Changjing can be said to be the strongest person in this part of the universe, which is also why the Four-direction Star Land has been safe and sound."

Yet Ding Huan was filled with doubts. Even if Zhan Changjing had created a new realm, he could still have followed the spaceship from the Civilization Star Land and left.

Ding Huan didn't ask this question, sure that Li Deting didn't know the reason.

"Brother Ting, when did the spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet last co to Four-direction Star Land?"

Ding Huan asked with so anticipation.

Li Deting laughed heartily,

"Brother Ding finally realized. In two more years, the spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet will co to Four-direction City. That's also one of the reasons I invited you here today."

"Thank you, Brother Ting, for giving this good news." Ding Huan sincerely thanked him.

Soone like him, who was at the bottom of the Four-direction Star Land, wouldn't have known such news if Li Deting hadn't specifically told him.

Even if he later learned about the spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet coming over, wanting to take the spaceship to leave here might be a lost cause without proper preparation.

Li Deting nodded, accepting Ding Huan's gratitude.

If he told Ding Huan such important news and Ding Huan wasn't thankful at all, then he would feel he had misjudged the person.

"The spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet coming this ti is mainly to collect various rare natural treasures. Each ti, they also take away a few geniuses with extraordinary talent..."

Hearing Li Deting say that they would take away a few geniuses with extraordinary talent every ti, Ding Huan's heart stirred. He was unsure of his own talent since it was obtained by rging the Spirit Root Gene.

But Xinyue's talent was undoubtedly exceptional, undoubtedly top-notch.

Ding Huan asked with so confusion,

"Hasn't anyone tried to buy a spot with purple gold coins or Crystal Stones?"

Li Deting shook his head,

"Think about it, here in Four-direction Star Land, the highest-level currency for transactions is Crystal Yuan coins. Do you know where these co from? They're brought by the Advanced Civilization Planet."

Ding Huan suddenly realized, would anyone care about the things they brought themselves that are traded back to them?

"I know Brother Ding is definitely not an ordinary person. If you want to leave this place, then you must hurry to Four-direction City to settle down, and also cultivate a good relationship with the Four Great Families.

When the extraterrestrial civilization cos, they mainly make contact with the Four Great Families and the Three Great Sects, purchasing their treasures. Alas, it's a pity that your spaceship is broken; otherwise, it would also count as a treasure."

Li Deting seed to recall sothing as he said this, his voice dropping again,

"Previously, because the Zuo Family and other families and sects were busy negotiating the reception of the spaceship from the Advanced Civilization Planet, they didn't send anyone due to Sister Tou's disappearance.

However, the matter of receiving people from the Advanced Civilization Planet has been settled, and they might send people here soon."

Ding Huan remained silent, understanding why Li Deting had invited him here.

Li Deting had long determined that he was the one who killed Han Ni and Sister Tou.

Because of his strength, he wanted to make friends with him.

Even if the other party guessed it, Ding Huan would not admit it.

As if proving that Ding Huan's thoughts were correct, Li Deting continued to speak,

"That Lord Jin struts around here. If one day he suddenly dies, I am sure no one will look at him again."

Ding Huan raised his glass and toasted Li Deting once more.

Li Deting's words were vague, but he understood; that is, he could kill Jin without worrying about being tracked down.

Although it sounded like using a borrowed knife to kill soone, Ding Huan didn't mind, he had already planned to kill Jin.

However, the people of the Zuo Family would be troubleso, as the Zuo Family had Foundation Establishnt experts, and more than one.

Everyone enjoyed the al thoroughly, and when Li Deting stood to see off Ding Huan, he added,

"Sister Tou counts for nothing. If she didn't bring so treasures to the Zuo Family every year, she would have been killed off long ago.

But the people from the Zuo Family investigating Sister Tou's case, they cannot have an accident. Once sothing happens, the Zuo Family's experts will co."

"Thanks for the hospitality, Brother Ting. I'll take my leave." Ding Huan chuckled and expressed his desire to depart.

Li Deting reminded him that as long as he didn't expose himself after killing Sister Tou, there wouldn't be a problem, but he couldn't kill the Zuo Family's people that ca to investigate Sister Tou.
