Chapter 157 The Strongest Man in the Universe and Saki

However, destroying a mere Blood Spring would be too easy, and it wouldn't necessarily require going through the Jialan Empire. Suk wasn't willing to go to the trouble of dealing with just one Blood Spring, and a familiar face immediately came to mind.

Antona is a high-ranking member of the "Doomsday Blade," one of the seven top organizations.

This is a domain lord-level powerhouse, and a high-ranking member of a large organization. She alone could easily destroy the Blood Spring Society.

Previously, he had to look up to An Dongna, the domain lord, and dared not ask her for help casually. But now, as long as he reveals that he is a core member of the Virtual Universe Company, she should give him face.

After a short journey through the dark universe, the spaceship emerged from space again and could see a vast, incomparably large continent in the vast void, stretching as far as the eye could see.

"A continent with a diameter of hundreds of billions of kilometers, it is truly awe-inspiring no matter how many times you see it," Suk exclaimed.

"There are quite a few continents like this in the cosmic secret realms," King Menghua said from the side. "The cosmic secret realms—the cosmic secret realms are full of wonders, and occasionally there will be some very large landmasses. But if you want to build a large landmass—it's also very troublesome."

"It's not that simply condensing enough landmasses will create a massive continent. Just like an incredibly large planet can collapse and even form a black hole. Although the rules of the universe are not as restrictive in the cosmic secret realm, it's not like you can just build whatever you want," King Menghua in black armor laughed. "Most of the continents in this secret realm are man-made. The method is to first nurture a large amount of land within the divine realm, and then directly transfer it into the universe, where it gradually condenses. This Divine Flower Continent, however, is a rare example of naturally formed landmass within the secret realm."

Suk looked at the countless spaceships flying across the continent, densely packed like a swarm of bees, an extraordinary sight. Even if spaceships appeared on other planets, they could not be on such a scale.

A bustling metropolis ruled by a realm lord on the Shenhua Continent.

On the bustling street, Saki, dressed in a dark gold battle suit, was walking and talking with an elderly human man with a hunchback, green skin, and tentacles.

"Old man, how long have you lived here?" Saki asked the elderly man he had met by chance, curiously.

"Not long ago, I just arrived," the hunchbacked old man said with a smile. "You seem to be in a good mood today, young man. Did something good happen?"

"Haha, my brother whom I haven't seen for many years is coming to see me." Saki grinned.

The hunchbacked, green-skinned, antennae-covered elderly human nodded slightly. "It seems you and your brother have a good relationship."

"Of course, we've been brothers since we were little," Saki said matter-of-factly.

"Brother—" the hunchbacked old man repeated, then sighed. "He seems so unfamiliar."

Saki tilted his head, looking at the strange old man. Their initial meeting was purely coincidental, and the old man was also peculiar, seemingly always appearing before him. However, Saki had used his smart brain to detect him; he was just an ordinary old man.

"Old man, don't you have any family or brothers?" Saki asked curiously.

The hunchbacked, green-skinned old man said hoarsely, "No, a long time ago, I came into this world all alone, and after all these years, I still don't have a single brother."

"Then you are truly unfortunate," Saki said sympathetically.

The hunchbacked old man looked at the tall man, Saki, a strange glint in his eyes. "You say I'm unfortunate? So, you think having brothers is a blessing?"

Saki sighed, seemingly lost in thought. "Without them, I probably wouldn't be who I am today, and I would never have been able to achieve my dreams."

The hunchbacked old man's smile deepened. "Since you value your brother so much, it seems you won't betray him."

"Of course, how could I betray my own brothers? I, Saki, am not that kind of person," Saki said firmly.

The hunchbacked old man shook his head and said hoarsely, "Young man, you're still too young and inexperienced. The reason people don't betray you is because they haven't been tempted enough. If you were offered an enormous benefit, could you really maintain your integrity?"

Saki scratched his head. "Why does it feel like you're being sarcastic?"

The hunchbacked old man seemed to want to say something, but then, as if noticing something, he slightly raised his head and looked in one direction.

Just then, a flash of light appeared, and a dark purple, sword-shaped, ancient-looking spaceship flew over from the distant horizon and hovered above the city.

"Zaki should be here." The spaceship hatch opened, and Suk and a black-armored man with normal human-shaped horns flew out together.

"It's Suk." Saki, seeing the spaceship and figures appear in the sky as well, immediately perked up. He then turned to the hunchbacked, green-skinned old man beside him and said, "Look, that's my brother. He's a cosmic-level being, isn't he amazing?"

The hunchbacked old man glanced at the white-haired youth in the sky, his gaze lingering on Meng Hua Wang beside him. A glint of light flickered in his cloudy eyes, and he nodded slightly. "He does look quite formidable. Your brother is not bad."

"Since your brother is here, I won't disturb your gathering any longer. Let's chat again when we have time." The hunchbacked old man walked off in another direction and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Suk also spotted Saki and landed with King Menghua, who concealed his presence.

"Zaki." Suk saw his brother and a smile appeared on his face.

"Haha—Suk, you've finally come to see me! It's rare for us brothers to meet, we should have a good drink today." The tall and burly Saki was equally excited. He then looked at the black-armored man with two horns to the side and asked in confusion, "And this is—"

Suk said, "This is Mr. Meng Hua, sent by my senior brother to take me to the Initial Universe."

"Hello," King Meng Hua said with a smile. A dignified immortal king, yet he smiled at a mere mortal.

"Hello." Zuo Mu gave a simple and honest smile. Although he couldn't sense any aura from this Mr. Meng Hua, judging from some of Su Ke's subtle actions, this man must be extraordinary.

Suk looked around. "What were you doing just now?"

Saki put his arm around Suk's shoulder and laughed, "I was just talking to an interesting old man I met here."

But he just left. Never mind that, let's find a place to have a proper talk.

Unbeknownst to Saki, the interesting old man he had mentioned was still standing there, watching the three of them, and laughing.

The hunchbacked old man didn't move at all from beginning to end; he could simply choose to be seen or not be seen at will.

Even King Meng Hua didn't notice anything amiss.

"A king-level being accompanied by a cosmic-level being?" A hunchbacked, green-skinned old man's lips curled into a smile. "Interesting."

"It seems this must be some genius among the human race?"
