Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 382: Are You in Such a Rush to Die?
"Mr. Fang? Mr. Fang?" Paless called out to Fang Jueyu twice.
To be honest, it was Paless's first time encountering such a nine-level account. She came from a fourth-level civilization, but even she felt mentally overwhelmed seeing such a string of numbers.
"Oh, oh, oh, I'm fine, I'm fine." Fang Jueyu finally snapped out of his stupor. "Sorry, my parents just gave me this account. I've never seen so much money in my life, lost my composure."
"As expected, the future heir of the Cosmic Union Supermarket." Paless had suspected as much, and Fang Jueyu's words confirmed her previous assumptions.
"Mr. Fang's family sure has an unconventional way of nurturing their offspring." Fang Jueyu's expression didn't seem faked at all, indicating he truly had just gotten in touch with this fortune.
"In our place, we advocate raising sons frugally and daughters lavishly, you wouldn't understand." Fang Jueyu smirked; when he first found out his family was the richest on Earth, he had a similar reaction. This scene was déjà vu.
"By the way, Paless, can you tell me about the purchasing power of cosmic coins?" Fang Jueyu was quite curious about it.
"Certainly, Mr. Fang. Cosmic coins are the official currency circulated among the civilizations that have joined the Cosmic Federation. They possess the strongest purchasing power in the universe. Generally speaking, a standard uninhabited planet costs anywhere from hundreds of thousands to millions of cosmic coins. If it's a civilized planet, then the price is unbelievably high; an early-stage first-level civilized planet costs about 1 to 10 billion cosmic coins."
"Uh... do people in cosmic civilizations really talk about buying and selling planets so casually?" Fang Jueyu suddenly felt a bit narrow-minded. He originally wanted to ask about the annual expenses of an ordinary family in a cosmic civilization.
"How much does a typical cosmic civilization family need for expenses?" It was better to ask now than be embarrassed later, so Fang Jueyu thickened his skin and asked.
"Mr. Fang, residents on a planet generally don't use such high-level currency as cosmic coins for daily living," Paless explained. "But loosely converted, a regular family's annual expense is about 100 cosmic coins."
"Xiao Yi, what's a cosmic year?"
"It's a time measurement in the universe, roughly equivalent to about 1.2 Earth years."
"That's really troublesome," Fang Jueyu muttered to himself.
"So if I need to use money in the future, I just come to you, right?" Fang Jueyu asked again.
"Yes, Mr. Fang, for ordinary transactions, you just need to swipe that card meant for the nine-level account. If the transaction is restricted, you can also complete the transfer through me."
"Alright, I'll be counting on you in the future," Fang Jueyu said politely. Given his spending habits, he would likely be dealing with Paless often.
"You're too kind, Mr. Fang. Serving you is Paless's honor." Paless bowed deeply to Fang Jueyu again.
This was not mere courtesy—servicing a ninth-level client like Fang Jueyu meant Paless's income was a hundred times that of an ordinary wealth advisor! Plus, she got a substantial commission every time Fang Jueyu spent money.
"Hmm? Mr. Fang, why are you having a nosebleed?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I have something to attend to. I'll come back to you when I need money," Fang Jueyu quickly averted his gaze from Paless and then turned off the terminal.
"Damn, even as a mid-level Hidden Elementer, I almost couldn't keep it under control," Fang Jueyu muttered, grabbing a tissue to wipe his nosebleed.
"Hahaha, host, this Paless must be from the Charming Elf Clan. They are naturally devastating to men, and she's even at a Divine Ability User's level. Of course, you can't handle it," Xiao Yi teased.
"As you know, slave trading is legalized in the universe, and the females of the Charming Elf Clan are the hottest commodities in the slave market. Their allure... tsk, tsk, tsk! Host, I assure you, if you want, Paless will absolutely be down for it. Then you'll know what reaching the pinnacle of life feels like."
"Would you watch your mouth?" Fang Jueyu scolded.
Now that the money was in hand, Fang Jueyu could freely use the Space-Time Store. Even if that wormhole got opened up, he had nothing to fear.
"Host, it seems some trouble is coming our way," Xiao Yi suddenly warned.
"Oh? Is it Ryukawa Sukio?"
Gu Yi was already by Fang Jueyu's side. Given his current peak Source Energy User strength, no one could escape his detection. If someone managed to approach, the only possibility was that person with "Ghost Star," Ryukawa Sukio.
"Yes, host, he seems to possess some very peculiar aura, as if he obtained some unique power. His strength should have reached that of a Source Energy User."
"Oh?" The last time Fang Jueyu faced off with Ryukawa Sukio, he was only a mid-level Hidden Elementer. How did he become so formidable in just over a month?
"He must have borrowed some external force," Xiao Yi explained.
"No worries, Gu Yi is here after all. Looks like I have to play the prodigal son again today," Fang Jueyu revealed a sinister smile.
He didn't care how Ryukawa Sukio acquired powers not his own, but judging from the words he relayed through Kazama Suke, he must have spent a lot of effort and time on it.
Right now, he must be confident he could kill Fang Jueyu, but he'd never guess that Gu Yi had already stealthily appeared nearby.
"Hahaha, host, this smart system of a third-level civilization is so trash," Xiao Yi ridiculed. "It can't even detect Gu Yi's presence. If it were me, I'd commit suicide."
"Isn't that better?" Fang Jueyu laughed too. He loved watching those who thought they had him figured out, only to realize they were total idiots. If Ryukawa had discovered Gu Yi, he would've already fled. Where's the fun in that?
Divine Ability Users are the backbone of a third-level civilization, and "Ghost Star" is just a smart system of a third-level civilization. Gu Yi, having spent a considerable time at the Super God Academy, had learned lots of techniques for staying hidden. Evading its detectors was hardly unbelievable.
"Fang Jueyu, you wouldn't want me to make a move here, would you? Come to the seaside with me!" At this moment, Ryukawa Sukio's voice came from outside the window. "I said the next time I saw you, I'd take your life!"
This was the capital of the Eastern Kingdom—and Ryukawa Sukio didn't dare cause a scene here, or else he'd provoke quite a lot of commotion and trouble.
"Hey, are you in such a hurry to die?" Fang Jueyu shook his head. "This kid has no clue how terrifying my background is!"

"Gu Yi, follow me. Don't make a move without my order. I want to see just what foolishness this fool has been up to lately, with so much confidence!"
"Yes, young master!" Gu Yi's voice remained calm and unruffled.
Fang Jueyu leaped out of the window, and under the cover of night, two figures swiftly headed towards the seaside...
