“This isn’t quite right. These Dao Jade were originally given to you as a gift. It feels a bit inappropriate to exchange them for something else,” Jiang Ziya said hesitantly.

"I don't need these pills, refining materials, and other items anyway. Keeping them would be a waste. You still won't take my pills, refining materials, or your Dao Jade, so I won't take them either," Han Feng said.

“Master, you should agree to Han Feng’s request. He really has a lot of refining materials, pills, and so on. These things are the most important if your Guardian Star wants to be rebuilt,” Zhang Liang advised with a smile.

"In that case, we have no choice but to exchange them."

Han Feng took out a storage bag from his person and exchanged it with Jiang Ziya.

His cultivation level has now reached the late stage of the Dao Yu Realm, and the number of Dao Jade required for one life simulation has increased to one hundred trillion low-grade Dao Jade.

Last time, in order to raise his cultivation to the late stage of the Dao Yu Realm, Han Feng used up almost all of his Dao Jade.

If Han Feng wants to continue improving his cultivation, he will definitely need more Dao Jade.

These pills and refining materials were already surplus, so exchanging them with the guardian star was just right.

Everyone gets what they need, and it's a win-win situation.

"This is too extravagant!"

Chen Tuan couldn't resist opening the storage bag.

After scanning the storage bag with his divine sense, he was completely shocked.

Elixirs, refining materials, cultivation techniques, and so on are all considered very good things.

Many of the cultivation techniques were core techniques of alien races, and they all appeared in the storage bag.

Some of the materials used in crafting are extremely rare, and finding them can be very difficult.

There are also some precious elixirs that are very difficult to refine.

It's clear that the Guardian Star gained the upper hand in this exchange.

"The contents of this storage bag are too precious. Five hundred trillion low-grade Dao Jade are simply not enough. We will go and add some more Dao Jade for you."

Jiang Ziya immediately ordered someone to fetch some more Dao Jade.

He waved his hand and laughed, "Too few won't do. We need another five hundred trillion low-grade Dao Jade."

Chen Tuan looked troubled and said in a low voice, "Ancestor, we can only produce five hundred trillion low-grade Dao Jade, which is already our limit. We really don't have any more Dao Jade."

"No way, my guardian planet was that poor back then," Jiang Ziya said in surprise.

"Our guardian planet is so poor. The blockade imposed by the gods and other races in the universe is too severe, so we definitely can't get the Dao Jade."

Those alien races that maintain contact with our human race also dare not sell Dao Jade to us.

For a long time, the Guardian Star was produced and sold entirely by itself.

"We just went through another major battle, and our guardian planet suffered heavy losses. Being able to produce 50 billion low-grade Dao Jade is already our limit."

Chen Tuan said awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, we'll have to wait and pay for these five hundred trillion low-grade Dao Jade for now. Once our guardian star recovers, we'll give them to you, fellow Daoist."

Jiang Ziya said, somewhat embarrassed but still politely, "This life-bearing planet was discovered by you, fellow Daoist. According to the rules of the vast starry sky, whatever is mined from this life-bearing planet belongs to you, one-tenth of it."

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Han Feng said with a smile.

The fact that his guardians, Jiang Ziya, Chen Tuan, Ge Xuan, and others, knew how to repay kindness made him feel that his efforts had not been in vain.

If it were Chen Pu, Liu Daxian, or others, Han Feng would definitely not have saved them.

People like Chen Pu and Liu Daxian not only won't be grateful to Han Feng, but they'll also stab him in the back.

"Actually, we have another request, but I hope you won't mind if I say it, Fellow Daoist Han," Zhuge Liang said hesitantly.

"Just say it, I won't be offended," Han Feng said.

"Then I'll get straight to the point: Fellow Daoist Han, do you have any plans to join another faction?"

"Not for now. I'm just staying on Eternal Star temporarily because I'll be returning to my ancestral star soon. I want to do my part for my ancestral star."

“The ancestral star is very dangerous. To put it bluntly, the ancestral star has no future. Its destruction is only a matter of time. Fellow Daoist, going there will likely only result in your futile sacrifice,” Ge Xuan advised.

“I know, but there are people I care about on our ancestral planet, so I have to go back.”

Han Feng shook his head and said.

Having gone through so many life simulations, he naturally knew the final outcome for the ancestral star.

But Han Feng has his own parents on his ancestral planet, and he can't just stand by and watch them die.

Another major reason why humanity was not completely wiped out in the vast starry sky is that their ancestral planet still exists.

Once the ancestral star is destroyed, all the human race's Sky-Stepping Realm experts will perish.

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken!

The next to be wiped out will be the human race in the vast starry sky.

It's only a matter of time before the human race's hidden planet is discovered.

“Well said. I will also return to my ancestral planet when the time comes. My ancestral planet gave me life and nurtured me. I should return to my roots after I die.” Chen Tuan sighed deeply.

"We will definitely go to our ancestral planet, but our guardian planet is our second home, so we can't abandon it all. We'll leave one person behind."

Jiang Ziya also planned to go to the ancestral star.

Their ancestral planet is the place that gave them birth and nurtured them. It is impossible for them to stand by and do nothing when their ancestral planet is in trouble.

The inhabited planet where their guardian star resides is their second home, and it is impossible for them to give it up.

"I almost forgot the important matter. Fellow Daoist Han, would you be interested in joining us?" Jiang Ziya invited.

"Join us?"

Han Feng looked completely bewildered and said with a wry smile, "Don't joke around here."

"Why do you think we're joking, fellow Daoist? Of course we're serious. As long as you're willing to join us, the Guardian Star will always welcome you."

"Your guardian star can do whatever you want; your rights are no less than mine."

Jiang Ziya extended a sincere invitation.

“We, the guardians of this planet, have always been harmonious. Fellow Daoist, you will definitely not regret joining us,” Ge Xuan advised.

“You were the one who discovered this life-bearing planet, and I believe everyone will respect you. There’s no need to worry about that,” Chen Tuan quickly added.

“We Guardian Star people are really easy to deal with, and if you join the Guardian Star, the Dao Jade produced by the Guardian Star will be given to you as soon as possible. What do you think?” Zhuge Liang also did not forget to cooperate.

"You have no sportsmanship at all, openly recruiting people in front of me. Han Feng is already a member of our Eternal Star, and it is impossible for him to join your Guardian Star."

Zhang Liang immediately retorted.

“Zifang, that’s not right of you. Fellow Daoist Han said he would join your Eternal Star, but he has always been alone,” Ge Xuan said bluntly.

“You’re being a bit harsh. Han Feng and his Daoist partner are currently on Eternal Star, and they could join it at any time,” Zhang Liang said, clearly unconvinced.

"Zifang, don't try to comfort yourself. Fellow Daoist Han wanted to join, and he joined a long time ago. It's impossible that he hasn't joined yet." Zhuge Liang smiled.

“Exactly, maybe he thinks our Guardian Star is better,” Chen Tuan pressed his advantage.
