Tu Kong agreed very readily, without making any other demands to Ling Feng.
It seemed as if the forty thousand people didn't matter, whether he had them or not.
However, Ling Feng guessed Tu Kong's intentions; he did this simply to get closer to him and mend the previous rift between them.
Tu Kong is ambitious, but when he realizes he possesses only martial prowess and lacks the ability to explore the universe or freely travel to other planets, he tends to be more pragmatic.
Ling Feng is different; he has never wanted to dominate or enslave others, only to develop himself, solve problems, and live a peaceful life.
Therefore, it is difficult for the two to become true friends; at most, they can only be seen as partners.
After securing the promise from Tu Kong, Ling Feng quickly left Panlong Nation.
The top priority now is still the Divine Mountain Base on Shallow Blue Star, so he returned quickly and stayed there, waiting for the first spaceship to be completed.
