Chapter 498: Prince Kanjiji!

【Before long, a gleaming golden Star Ship, uniquely shaped like a palanquin carriage, descended directly near the Winged God Fortress without relying on the Star Harbor's beam of light.】

【Rolling bell tones echoed, brilliant radiance soared into the sky.】

【A red carpet was laid from the position of the carriage all the way to the main gate of the Winged God Fortress.】

【A squad of fully armored golden soldiers, even their faces concealed, stood in two rows flanking the red carpet, moving with perfectly synchronized motions, the sound of their armor plates rising and falling in unison.】

【From the carriage, a young-looking unicorn-horned man stepped down, clad in imperial royal attire, with a head of splendid golden hair and a pair of blue eyes.】

【The unicorn-horned race was a humanoid race distinguished by a single horn growing from the forehead.】

【The royal family of the Ares Immortal Kingdom was indeed the unicorn-horned race.】

【Today, you wore a set of knight armor resembling an "iron barrel," blending into the knight order of the Winged Ancestor Church, so as to monitor this entire inspection tour from start to finish.】

【It was also to keep an eye on Dalabeng, preventing him from suddenly turning traitor.】

【Dalabeng had once again donned his luxurious divine attire.】

【This fellow had actually maintained the habit of ordering custom-made divine garments even during his peanut cake-selling period.】

【Sotuofeiren, the Four Talented Brothers, and others attended to Dalabeng's left and right, as today they were to play the role of Dalabeng's right-hand men.】

【Although the five of them were unfamiliar faces, that was hardly a problem.】

【After all, every time the Ares Immortal Kingdom came for inspection, the intervals were quite long, so it was only natural that the people around Dalabeng had changed. Besides, they were all Winged Clan anyway.】

【"Oh!! Respected Prince Tuo Chiqi Kanjiji, I never imagined that Your Highness would personally come to inspect our Winged Feather stellar system! This is truly my honor!"】

【Dalabeng knelt on one knee at the end of the red carpet, piously welcoming the Immortal Kingdom's special envoy, who was also one of the princes of the Ares royal family, Tuo Chiqi Kanjiji.】

【When this Prince Kanjiji opened his mouth, you could barely hold yourself together.】

【"No need for such courtesy!! Humble Leader Dalabeng!! This Prince has long heard of your weak and backward Winged God Church!! And now that I see it in person!! Truly as frail as a withered branch!!!"】

【He spoke with a very loud voice.】

【And throughout the entire time, his nostrils pointed at the sky, never looking down at the ground.】

【Moreover, his choice of words was rather unconventional.】

【You said in a low voice to another knight beside you.】

【"Why does this prince speak so loudly? Does he have hearing problems?"】

【That knight replied in a low voice.】

【"Everyone in the Ares royal family speaks like this. It's inherited."】

【"What kind of quirk is that?"】

【"It's called royal dignity."】

【"I suspect his ancestors sold vegetables at the market, so they developed loud voices."】

【At the same time, a notification appeared before your eyes.】

【Detected Medium-level Jiahao Behavior, Jiahao points +10!】

【In this current environment, the only one who could trigger Jiahao was undoubtedly this Ares prince.】

【You hadn't spent much time by this Prince Kanjiji's side before the Jiahao points you could obtain from this fellow this year were already maxed out.】

【"I like this prince."】

【With Dalabeng, the old dictator, handling things, the entire inspection proceeded extremely smoothly.】

【After all, he had dealt with these many times before.】

【Under Dalabeng's arrangements, the entire inspection team was especially satisfied with this inspection visit.】

【However, they wouldn't turn a blind eye to the changes on Lingwei Star either.】

【"Humble Leader Dalabeng!! I heard you suffered a shameful defeat!! And now you've ascended the throne once more!! Is that right!!"】

【"That is correct, Respected Prince Kanjiji. My title now is the Chess God."】

【"Doesn't sound any different to me!!"】

【"The character is different."】

【"Forget it! That doesn't matter to me!!

What I want to know is! Why is your pitiful territory now only a more pitiful half?!

And the other half has actually been occupied by the supremely humble Human Race?!!

If you can't even deal with the Human Race!!

The Immortal Kingdom must seriously consider!!

Whether it should replace you with a new batch of lowly subjects to rule the Winged Feather stellar system!!!"】

【Inside the rebuilt hall of the Winged God Fortress, the loud voice of Prince Kanjiji echoed, shaking your eardrums until they hurt.】

【Dalabeng responded with confidence and composure.】

【"Merely another rebellion, Respected Prince. You should be well aware that the Human Race has rebelled in our Winged Feather stellar system more than once or twice, but every single time, their ending has only ever been one thing..."】

【The corners of Prince Kanjiji's mouth stiffly pulled upward, perfectly demonstrating what it meant to smile without meaning it.】

【"Very well!! Humble Leader Dalabeng!! I hope you can suppress the rebellion as soon as possible!! And restore normal order to the Winged Feather stellar system!!!"】

【"I will do everything in my power, Respected Prince."】

【Perhaps because Dalabeng had performed so well, this Prince Kanjiji had a sudden inspiration and declared.】

【"Humble Leader Dalabeng!! This Prince can see that this Human Race rebellion seems rather formidable this time!! I've brought several experts!! Let them eliminate some of the rebel leaders for you!! To help you suppress the rebellion more quickly!!"】

【You immediately became alert, divine power beginning to circulate within your body.】

【If Dalabeng couldn't handle it, you would have no choice but to step in.】

【Within this inspection team, you hadn't detected any Immortal Lord-level experts, but there were quite a few High-Grade cultivators at the Transcendent Realm.】

【Among three of them, you sensed Supreme Treasure auras, including this Prince Kanjiji himself.】

【So if a fight really broke out, even you wouldn't have it so easy.】

【And winning wouldn't be a good thing either. If something happened to an Imperial Commissioner, one could only imagine what sort of countermeasures the Immortal Kingdom would employ, especially when that commissioner was also a prince.】

【Dalabeng remained unflustered in the face of danger. He first knelt on one knee, performed a solemn salute, and thanked Prince Kanjiji for his care toward the Chess God Church.】

【"Please rest assured, Your Highness. The situation with the rebels is fully under my control. However, I suspect that this rebellion is being supported by forces from outside the stellar system. I wish to cast a long line to catch a big fish, which is why I have tolerated the rebels occupying certain regions.

When the time is right, my Chess God Church will strike like thunder and completely suppress the rebellion!"】

【This Prince Kanjiji's mind was not particularly complex.】

【A few words from Dalabeng convinced him, and he no longer sent people to assist with suppressing the rebellion.】

【The Ares Immortal Kingdom's rule over the various stellar systems within its territory was similar to a feudal system, rarely directly interfering in internal affairs of stellar systems, unless the subordinate forces took the initiative to request aid.】

【After all, the Immortal Kingdom's influence radiated across half of the Southern Star Realm. If such a vast territory required the royal family to manage and worry about everything, the Ares royal family's population would need to increase a hundredfold just to keep up.】

【Prince Kanjiji stepped onto the red carpet, boarded the carriage, and surrounded by numerous guards, led the inspection team away from Lingwei Star.】

【As he was leaving, this loud voice was still delivering farewell words from the sky.】

【"Humble Leader Dalabeng!! This Prince really doesn't want to come to this godforsaken corner of yours a second time!! However! The peanut cakes aren't bad tasting!! They must be added to the future tax collection list!! This is very important!!!"】
