Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 881 649: Hawk Wasps Kingdom

"Snow Velvet Spider King!"

"Greetings, Snow Velvet Spider King~"

"I've seen the Snow Velvet Spider King!"

...

Many insects on the Cloud Trace Continent have never seen the Snow Velvet Spider King, but they have heard of the title 'Richest in the Southern Hemisphere' from the Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid.

Upon receiving the news, insects on the island rushed to the coast to welcome and witness this legendary Spider King.

"Hello to you all~"

At first glance, the Snow Velvet Spider King felt a headache, as the various swarm species, with distinctive appearances, formed a typical unruly mob.

"Snow Velvet Spider King!"

The Areca stepped forward to greet.

—Hmm.

—There's at least one that looks pleasing.

The Snow Velvet Spider King examined and sensed the Areca's aura, feeling very satisfied, and asked, "Areca, you've consumed quite a lot of Divine-Given Origin Force Food from the Dragon Cypress Ant King, right?"

The Areca replied respectfully, "During the age periods of 7, 8, and 9 as a lord, I evolved with Divine-Given Origin Force Food. As a 1-age-period Insect King, I solely ate Divine-Given Origin Force Food. It took me 24 years to successfully gather the first Fire System Ability Divine Pattern and attempted the Touch of Origin Fire in the 2-age-period."

"Not bad! Not bad!"

The Snow Velvet Spider King praised, asking, "Have all the ordinary Little Primordial Spiders migrated over? Can I send you back to Shanglu?"

"They've all migrated over..."

The Areca said guiltily, "Snow Velvet Spider King, please trouble you to take my lineage of ordinary Little Primordial Spiders back to Shanglu and arrange a suitable living territory for them. As for me... I'm not going back, I'll root myself in Rainbow Island, and in the future, I'll go along with everyone."

"Not going back?"

The Snow Velvet Spider King's eyes narrowed, a thought crossed his mind, and asked, "Didn't the Dragon Cypress Ant King tell you? There will eventually be a distribution of Ghost King Sophora Seeds to your section of the Primordial Spiders."

Areca: "I know—"

The Snow Velvet Spider King: "Didn't the Dragon Cypress Ant King say he plans to help you fight for it?"

Areca: "I've considered carefully, it's not possible, Snow Velvet Spider King. I've been wandering since young, I have no elders, juniors, peers, or friends in the Shanglu Ancestral Land. If I fight for it, I'll first offend many spiders, I'll be isolated and unsupported, I don't have as thick a carapace as the Dragon Cypress Ant King, I can't."

"Alright—"

The Snow Velvet Spider King understood Areca's thoughts.

Going back to Shanglu and fighting for Ghost King Sophora Seeds was very unlikely.

But sticking with Dragon Cypress, following Dragon Cypress to the Outworld, there's a high chance of getting a Wangbai Seed of the same tier.

As it stands, adaptive evolution currently seems slightly more formidable than the Ancestral Divine Power.

By calculation, it's better to stay.

The Snow Velvet Spider King asked, "Areca, where is your Wood Tangerine Divine-Given Seed? Don't tell me it's already rooted."

Areca: "...It's already rooted."

The Snow Velvet Spider King replied testily, "Aren't you afraid that the Stone Hunt Blue Ant Army might suddenly attack?"

Areca: "It won't happen."

The Snow Velvet Spider King glanced around, noting that the other insects appeared calm, asking, "Has the Mantis King Ink Orchid gathered some formidable Divine Pattern?"

Areca: "Probably not? I'm not sure."

The Snow Velvet Spider King: "..."

Areca grew up away from the tribe, holds no sense of belonging to the tribe, and lacks trust and respect for the elderly steward, the old Spider King.

It's evident that the Cloud Trace Insects form a group.

And he is merely one among the many Roving Merchants transacting with them.

The Snow Velvet Spider King sighed inwardly and beckoned, "Areca, where is the Black Lotus Divine-Given Seed rooted? Lead the way, and let me have a look..."

...

Black Fruit Mountain is too distant from Rainbow Island, the round trips consume too much time.

The Dominating Throne returned, filled with Spider Silk Bags, carrying Red Moonseed and Chinese Clematis, wobbling back.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King!"

"Chinese Clematis! Red Moonseed!"

White Willow greeted enthusiastically, then lowered his spiritual power mind to report:

"Dragon Cypress Ant King, the Snow Velvet Spider King is here. As you predicted, he suspects that Ink Orchid has gathered a formidable Divine Pattern Ability. However, the Flame Spider Roving Merchant is shrewd, not easily fooled, and the Snow Velvet Spider King is skeptical, constantly probing. Ink Orchid found an excuse, claiming to train abilities, and hid away. We're struggling to handle the situation."

"Alright—"

Dragon Cypress asked, "What about the 1 billion Source Stones? How should we explain?"

White Willow: "The Snow Velvet Spider King is presently weaving the Spider King Scroll, each with a denomination of 10,000, ten thousand sheets for 1 billion. Due to the massive amount, the Snow Velvet Spider King's idea is to weave for 100 million Source Stones and keep the rest in account. Wherever the island needs Divine-Given Origin Force Food, he'll assist in procurement and delivery."

Dragon Cypress: "That's fine. Then in the future, whenever anyone needs Divine-Given Origin Force Food, make reports to Black Birch and Black Persimmon, then Black Birch and Black Persimmon will coordinate with the Snow Velvet Spider King for orders."

"Understood!"

White Willow agreed happily and added, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, there's another troublesome matter, the Snow Velvet Spider King is not comfortable with Rainbow Island, planning to reside there permanently..."

...

The Dominating Throne docked on the Lakeside of Azure Lake.

White Willow led the way, Rainbow Parasol Tree assisting, Chinese Clematis and Red Moonseed first looked for locations to arrange their Divine-Given Seeds to take root.

Dragon Cypress went to meet the Snow Velvet Spider King.

...

Under the King Cypress tree.

The Snow Velvet Spider King was intently weaving the Promissory Notes, stamping marks.

Blue Catalpa and Snakebark Maple guarded on either side of the Snow Velvet Spider King.

Areca stood aside, observing.

Ivy and Purple Three Leaf held Spider Silk Bags, waiting in front of the Snow Velvet Spider King, collecting each note upon completion.

"Snow Velvet Spider King! You've worked hard!"

Dragon Cypress greeted.

"..."

The Snow Velvet Spider King sighed, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, you truly are bold! At such times, not staying to guard Rainbow Island, you still dare to wander around."

"This isn't aimless wandering. It's almost Expedition Year; to prevent accidents, I'm bringing all the Cloud Trace Continental Insect Clan Warriors early."

"Have all the insects' Divine-Given Seeds taken root?"

"Of course."

"Has the Mantis King Ink Orchid gathered a formidable Ability Divine Pattern? Confident in dealing with the Kirin Beast Ant King? Restricting the Thunderfire Dual System Ability of Sea Beast Devouring?"

"There's probably no such ability, right?"
