Chapter 1484: Three Tests

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This is the epitome of becoming ultra rich in one night!

During the war at Overgrown Forest Planet, Chen Xiaobei had spent a total of 100 million Spiritual Stones to make millions of Demonic Beasts enter the Verdant Emperor’s Divine Gourd. Because of this war, Chen Xiaobei had yielded 500 million Spiritual Stones for himself.

This could definitely be considered as good karma. Without that war, Chen Xiaobei would not be so highly valued by the temple overlord and Tie Hongji would never be afraid of him. Most importantly, he would not have received such a ridiculous amount of Spiritual Stones if he did not win that war.

Everything was connected in this issue. The things that one does would have it’s consequences., and these consequences would impact one’s life in a good or bad way.

Immediately, Ximen Dingjun brought Chen Xiaobei and Linghu Shuang to the Northern Wilderness’s temple after the deal. Considering that numerous flags and other decorative stuff were being put up along the street some distance away from the temple, one could imagine how important this state banquet was. When they arrived at the temple, the sound of various musical instruments could be heard. All the while, Linghu Shuang was the kind of girl that liked festivities like this. She was literally covered in joy while they were on the way to their destination.

To Linghu Shuang, she assumed that Chen Xiaobei’s would have a promising future since the overlord had now noticed him.

However…

Chen Xiaobei did not seem excited or happy about it at all. That was because he could see what was behind the curtain. This whole thing was a show put on by the overlord specifically for Chen Xiaobei. The overlord wanted to tell everyone that he was a good ruler who would reward those that contributed to the kingdom.

At the same time, he wanted to use this opportunity to tell people who were saved by Chen Xiaobei before that their hero had been rewarded handsomely by the temple. By doing that, all the powerful elites would set Chen Xiaobei as their example. In other words, they would do their best to serve the temple. Other than that, a reward given by the overlord would also serve as a motivation to those who wanted to serve the temple.

In earthly terms, the overlord was simply using the state banquet and Chen Xiaobei to recruit a bunch of elites that were willing to serve the temple wholeheartedly. Considering this, the state banquet had lost its original meaning. That was why Chen Xiaobei was not pleased by it at all. All he wished right now was for the whole thing to end as quickly as possible. He could not wait to return to Silver Plume City.

At Northern Wilderness Temple.

The decorations inside in were ten times more luxurious than the Forbidden City of China. Basically, the overlord lived like a king inside this temple. With gorgeous women at his side all day long, and having the power to rule the entire Norther Wilderness Starfield, the overlord was the only that had the right to live a dreamy life like this.

Finally, Chen Xiaobei had his eyes laid on the most powerful man of Northern Wilderness Starfield when he stepped into the state banquet hall.

“Mr. Chen! Welcome!”

The overlord was wearing a golden robe with a dark golden dragon printed on it. A sturdy and powerful aura emanated from him. The sounds of clapping could be heard echoing in the hall once he started to talk. All these people that were invited to these hall must be the core officials of the temple. Either that or they were the top guns of their respective professions. These people were so powerful that most of the people from Northern Wilderness Temple were afraid of them.

At that moment, all of them were clapping for Chen Xiaobei. It did not stop until he walked to the VIP table and was seated beside the overlord. Such a shocking moment had made Linghu Shaung freeze. All she could do was stay beside Chen Xiaobei and remain quiet. As for Chen Xiaobei, he was not nervous nor was he anxious even as he was being placed in such a huge event. That was why he could take care of Linghu Shuang throughout the entire thing.

Just as expected, nothing much happened during the state banquet. Out of politeness, Chen Xiaobei went to greet every single person in the banquet hall. There were some reporters taking pictures amongst them as well. Seemingly, he was going to become the tomorrow’s headline of the newspapers. After the drinking session, all the reporters had left the hall. That would mean Chen Xiaobei could leave the place as well.

Just as Chen Xiaobei was about to leave the place, the overlord of the temple proposed to have a private session with him. This odd request baffled Chen Xiaobei. Earlier, he’d thought that this entire thing was put up as a show to present to his people. From the start to the end, Chen Xiaobei was really cooperative. He never thought that the overlord was interested in talking with him. The only thing that he was certain was that the overlord’s time was extremely precious. He assumed the overlord was about to tell him something really important.

“Shuang’er. Wait for me here. Don’t go running around!” said Chen Xiaobei in a serious manner.

“Alright! I’ll stay right here!” said Linghu Shuang with her head nodding.

Chen Xiaobei then followed the overlord to exit the banquet hall.

…….

At the study room.

“Mr. Chen Xiaobei. I know the whole truth of Atlantis incident!”

“What?!”

Chen Xiaobei did not know how to respond to this statement. The moment the overlord addressed him as Chen Xiaobei, it was enough to prove that he knew everything.

“Who told you about it? Governor Dong? Or Elder Wenren?”

“Not them! Two of them wanted to keep it from me. But, you should know that a piece of paper can never wrap a burning fire! I’m the overlord! You can’t possibly hide anything from me!”

The reason why he could rule the starfield for such a long time was because he had earnings all over the place. That would mean the overlord had planted someone beside Dong Zhuo, Wenren Jinghao or even Lu Gang!

“What are you going to do to me since you know everything?”

Clearly, Chen Xiaobei knew that it was useless for him to defend himself. So, he chose to face it bravely. Considering that the overlord had not punished him, that would mean things were not as bad he thought it was.

“I don’t plan to do anything to you! I want to give you a test!”

“A test? What do you mean by that?”

“Not only do I know the whole truth of Atlantis incident, but I also know that you want to take Lu Family’s place to live in South Town Star Temple! Complete my three tests! I will personally help to get what you want if you can solve them!”
