Chapter 1541: ‘Welcoming’ Pan Heng

”Stingy” Standing on the wall of the city of great calamity, Ji Hao looked at the thin metal petals unfolding in the surroundings, shaking his head.

He was talking about the portal built by the Flow Moon. The largest bearing capacity of this portal was a standard flying fort of the non-humankind, no larger than ten miles squared in area. But this time, Ji Hao forcibly squeezed a city of great calamity in the portal. As a consequence, the operation speed of the portal turned extremely slow. It was like forcibly squeezing a watermelon into a finger-thick tube, so one could easily imagine how difficult it would get.

Ji Hao turned around and glanced at the golden bridge, which floated above the city of great calamity. From a beam of golden light, the golden bridge had transformed into a magnificent, actual bridge, rumblingly flashing across the space while pulling the city of great calamity forward speedily. Because of the golden bridge, the operation rate of the portal was raised by tens of times.

Polo Jia stood beside Ji Hao, shaking with a pasty face. He seemed ready to throw up at any moment.

The golden bridge had been pulling the city of great calamity forward at an abnormally high speed, because of which, a great pressure had been coming from the Chaos in all directions. The space inside the city of great calamity twisted weirdly, largely affecting Polo Jia's body.

While trying very hard to keep himself from throwing up, Polo Jia smiled to Ji Hao and said, ”Emperor Ji Hao, it's not because we Polo Family people are stingy…Pan Heng world didn't bring us enough profits. Therefore, we had to maintain the pressure we laid on them at the lowest level. Investing a large sum of money in building a larger portal for that world would be irrational.”

Shaking his head, Polo Jia gave a bitter grin and continued, ”The council of elders in our family wouldn't allow us to waste resources like that.”

”Is the council of elder in your family powerful?” Ji Hao looked at him and asked.

Because of the badly twisted space, Polo Jia's mind wasn't so clear. Hearing Ji Hao's question, he gave the answer without thinking much, ”In Pan Yu world, we have seven-hundred and forty-five family power elders. As for deputy elders…”

Abruptly, he raised his head and stared at Ji Hao in both embarrassment and anger, then cried, ”Emperor Ji Hao, that was very rude.”

Ji Hao chuckled, then pointed at the Chaos tide waves outside, which had been violently striking on the city of great calamity, and said blandly, ”If I grip your neck and throw you out, then tell your families that you accidentally fell into the Chaos...that would be truly rude.”

Picturing the horrible ending Ji Hao described, Polo Jia's expression changed. Instinctively, he took a few steps away from Ji Hao, then snorted and turned around, without saying another world to Ji Hao. Flow Moon people were the knowers, the wise ones. They weren't the same as people like Ji Hao, who always preferred to use violence as their first choice.

”Did your family raise so many powerful beings with the resources you stole from Pan Gu world?” Ji Hao sighed and said, ”If you gathered all those elders in Pan Gu world, you might have broken the humankind already, right? Why didn't you do that?”

Maybe because he had already revealed the number of family elders to Ji Hao, which was supposed to be a secret, Polo Jia remained silent for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, ”The other eleven families in power are stronger than Polo Family, and their members all have greater individual powers. But after all, our roots are back in Pan Yu world.”

Polo Jia frowned and continued while thinking, ”Why would mid and low-grade families like ours take great risks to explore the Chaos? Didn't we do this for resources? Didn't we do this to strengthen our families? It goes without saying that we keep the main forces of our families back in Pan Yu world. Besides, we roughly know how things are going in Pan Gu world, so why would we break the humankind?”
