["You can either join the patrol camp if you want, or just stay in the mansion to practice. Or come to my place, and I'll take you around Purple Star."
"Don't worry about the residence permit. I've already arranged for someone to handle it for you."]
Ji Wuqing was efficient. She had everything well - arranged for you on the very first day you arrived.
Just as you were about to express your gratitude, a shadow fell from the sky. It was a huge flying turtle, and on its back sat a group of monkeys wearing uniquely - designed armors.
"These monkeys look so familiar..."
The monkeys on the flying sea turtle looked quite presentable.
They didn't all look the same. Some had red fur, some had green fur. Some had three eyes, and some had four eyes. There were all kinds of combinations.
These monkeys reminded you of the two divine monkeys from the real world in the human realm - the Fiery - Eyed Golden Monkey and the Four - Eyed Spirit Monkey.
"Don't you recognize them? They are Star Apes," Ji Wuqing said as she noticed you looking up.
Then she glanced at Black Wind beside you.
"I thought since you have an ancient divine beast as a companion, you'd know about Star Apes too."
Before you could say anything, the sea turtle in the sky suddenly glanced down at the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind blew, and two red - furred monkeys suddenly appeared beside you.
"Hey! Isn't this a Dragon - Scaled Horse? Which clan do you belong to?"
They were greeting Black Wind, not you.
Black Wind hid his tall body behind you and lowered his head, saying, "I'm a lost one. I don't know which clan of the Dragon - Scaled Horses I belong to."
One of the red - furred monkeys looked at Black Wind's appearance and then glanced at you.
"Hey, brother Dragon - Scaled Horse, you don't look like this because you've recognized this human as your master, do you?"
Black Wind nodded.
The two red - furred monkeys looked at each other, then slapped their thighs and kept waving their hands while laughing loudly.
"Hahaha! This is so interesting! Fun! Fun! If we take this news back, the king will surely be happy! This proud Dragon - Scaled Horse has actually recognized a master. We can laugh at them for ten thousand years!"
The two monkeys happily jumped up and leaped onto the turtle's back.
They rode the flying sea turtle forward for a while and landed in the palace complex in the center of the city.
That was the central institution of the Ji family, the Ji Family Ancestral Temple.
It was also the main place where the core members of the main branch of the Ji family lived and worked.
"Are they here to see your Ji family?"
"Not just our Ji family. All the human forces on Purple Star are here recently. They're discussing something."
"What's that?"
"Selecting someone to go to the Void Realm."
Ji Wuqing said it casually, as if it wasn't a secret at all.
"What for?"
The existence of the Void Realm wasn't known to everyone in the real world. But if one had some knowledge and experience, it wasn't strange to know about it. So Ji Wuqing didn't find it inappropriate that you knew about the Void Realm.
"The First Prince and the Second Prince of the Star Ape clan are missing. They found out that the two princes accidentally entered a black hole and fell into the Void Realm.
You know, the Star Ape clan has an invincible physical body.
A black hole can destroy all matter in the world and make it collapse into a single point. But the two princes of the Star Apes didn't die when they fell into the black hole. They even accidentally had a trip to the Void Realm.
I really want to go to the Void Realm too!
Do you want to go?"
You were stunned for a moment.
Well, I'm actually from there.
"Isn't it impossible to enter the Void Realm from our universe? How is the Star Ape clan going to bring back their two princes?"
"Of course, it's impossible to directly enter the Void Realm. But the Star Source clan has a way to send a projection into the Void Realm.
However, their own people can't be projected.
Creatures like Star Apes and Dragon - Scaled Horses truly belong to this universe. Even their projections can't be sent over.
But we humans are different. Our ancestors ascended from the Void Realm, and there are still faint imprints of the Void Realm on us.
It's possible to send a virtual projection over and bring back the monkeys that originally belong to the real world, but we can't bring back other things.
The Star Apes have a good relationship with our human race. They don't trust other human - like races, so they came to Purple Star to cooperate with our human race. Now all the families are competing for this only quota."
"Even if it's just a projection, it's not that safe, right? What's the benefit of getting this only quota?"
"Of course, there is. You can get a favor from the Star Ape clan. In the future, if you're in trouble, no matter where you are in the world, the Star Apes will appear at any time to help you through the crisis."
"Is the Star Ape clan that powerful?"
"Don't underestimate the three ancient divine beasts, young man. They have more Immortal Emperors than our human - like races.
In the current universe, there is no Heavenly Emperor, and the Immortal Emperors are the most powerful beings. Their divine power can command an entire galaxy!
The more Immortal Emperors there are, the stronger the power, of course."
Now things were clear.
The Four - Eyed Spirit Monkey and the Fiery - Eyed Golden Monkey were the First Prince and the Second Prince. They had been in the Void Realm for many years.
Most likely, they had lost their memories and might have even used some method to start a new life.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, it was impossible to enter the Void Realm from the real world and remain intact.
After years of investigation, the Star Apes finally found the location of the two princes and were going to rescue them.
According to the normal timeline, Ji Wuqing should get this quota later.
But...
Why can't it be me?
Your mind started to work actively.
You knew that the Four - Eyed Spirit Monkey had entered the real world, but they were still looking for "two" monkeys, which meant that after the Four - Eyed Spirit Monkey came out of the Immortal Ascension Road, he didn't know which planet he had fallen on.
If the Fiery - Eyed Golden Monkey hadn't had an accident, he should still be in the human realm because you had told Hua Wuyan to find an excuse to stop the Fiery - Eyed Golden Monkey from using the Immortal Ascension Road, at least until you were ninety years old.
In this way, you were the one who knew the most information about these two monkeys now.
It shouldn't be difficult for you to get this quota.
Once it was done, both the Star Ape clan and the Ji family would owe you a favor.
Putting aside the benefits, what was this?
It was a network of contacts!
To be honest, you were a bit fed up with struggling at the bottom of society.
From Blessed Fortune Star to Fire - Light Star, and then from Fire - Light Star to Purple Star.
After decades of this journey, you had suffered a lot and witnessed too many tragedies.
If you had someone in high places, you wouldn't have to run around, and you wouldn't have let the alien races threaten the safety of your loved ones.
Moreover, you could also take this opportunity to go back to the human realm to have a look.
It was killing multiple birds with one stone.
"Miss Wuqing, I want to ask you for a favor. If you're willing to help me, the kindness of me bringing A - Dou to you will be written off."
[Ji Wuqing looked at you curiously.]
["Tell me about it."]
["I can get this quota! But I think I'm not qualified to get involved in that occasion. Please take me there."]
["Why are you so confident?"]
