The Lord of the Universe
Ch.382 - Cooperation
“That's why we want to know where your father is, to make sure whether our father is the same or not.”
“My father.. he is dead.”
Xiang Shin said honestly even though he intended to deceive Xiang Shui and Xiang Lan. Yes, cheating with honesty.
Xiang Shui and Xiang Lan were certainly surprised to hear that, even Xiang Lan had her mouth shut.
“My mother has been waiting for her arrival how could she die!” Xiang Shui raised the collar of Xiang Shin's shirt, “tell the truth! There's no way she'd die before seeing my mother!”
“Do you think I would have said that if it weren't for the current situation? Not only my father died but my mother too! You think I want to remember that sad incident?!” Xiang Shin looked emotional, it was completely real, not at all fabricated.
Xiang Shui took off the collar of Xiang Shin's clothes, his expression was not careless.
“Cannot be forgiven! How could he die before he met my mother! I won't forgive him!” Xiang Shui shouted in anger.
Xiang Lan shed tears, she was so sorry for her mother who was always waiting for her father's return. Turns out their father is dead. Somehow the reaction will be after knowing this reality. Xiang Lan could not imagine her mother's grief.
Xiang Shin looked at the crying Xiang Lan.
“If I was really their father, would they cry like this knowing I was gone?” Xiang Shin muttered inwardly.
“I actually don't care if dad is still alive or dead, but I can't imagine mother's reaction later on when I find out this,” Xiang Lan wiped her tears.
“Ugh, why does my heart feel hurt to hear it,” Xiang Shin muttered.
“Then you've been..”.
“I have lived my life alone since the age of 11 years until now. You guys are still lucky to have a mother who has always accompanied you until now,” Xiang Shin sighed softly.
Xiang Shui and Xiang Lan now started to feel concerned and guilty towards Xiang Shin.
“Then I apologize for this misunderstanding,” Xiang Shui untied the rope in Xiang Shin's hand.
“Yes no problem as long as you guys compensate me,” Xiang Shin at least wants to make a profit.
Xiang Shui and Xiang Lan smiled wryly but what Xiang Shin asked was indeed very reasonable.
“I don't bring much of anything now, but I guess this is enough right?” Xiang Shui took out a dimensional ring, these “ dimensional rings contained 1 million top grade Saint Crystals. This at once became a thank you for saving my sister and as a greeting meeting from your brother.”
Xiang Shin was surprised yet he could still control himself. Those 1 million high-end Saint Crystals were equivalent to 10 billion middle-grade Saint Crystals.
Xiang Shin accepted it with pleasure, “good, that's how it should be.”
“Oh yes, where is your mother now?” Xiang Shin wanted to make sure to meet their mother in person.
Xiang Shui and Xiang Lan looked at each other. They thought it was not an important secret so it was fine to tell Xiang Shin.
“Our mother is in the Human Dimension. We're into the out of Human Dimension for running a mission.”
“Mission?” Xiang Shin raised his eyebrows, “if you guys don't want to say it then no problem, I won't force it. By the way Xiang Lan, how did you get chased by high-level demons before? Is there another war?”
“Actually I infiltrated the Dark Galaxy because I heard about a group of humans and Spirit Beasts that made a lot of chaos there. I want to meet their leader to invite them to work together!..
If they could weaken the Dark Galaxy from within then it would be easier to defeat the demons. But I was detected and eventually chased by the demons. I immediately sent a signal of help to Brother but the one who came to save me instead you.”
“Oh so you guys want to work together. What offer will you give?” Xiang Shin smiled faintly.
“So you are the leader of that group of humans and Spirit Beasts?” ask Xiang Shui.
“Yes, I'm the one you're looking for.”
“Really coincidental. This way we do not have to bother infiltrating again into the Dark Galaxy.”
“Alright, the offer problem is very simple, I can give you a lot of resources to increase the strength of your troops and you will weaken the Dark Galaxy from within.”
“Interesting offer but what if I also ask for 3 stars with elements of water, light and wind in addition?”
“There are many stars with those 3 elements in the Green Wind Galaxy, giving you 3 is not a problem at all,” Xiang Shui did not ask for what Xiang Shin wants 3 stars for, “but at least I want to see your troops first.”
“No problem,” Xiang Shin understands what Xiang Shui meant to see his troops was to make sure his words were true or not.
Whether he was really the leader of the human army and the Spirit Beast or not.
“So our cooperation has been established Brother Shin,” Xiang Shui reached out his hand with a simple smile.
“Certainly brother Shui,” Xiang Shin welcomed Xiang Shui's hand.
And finally the two brothers in the misunderstanding agreed on an alliance or cooperation.
