    Just as Fang Mo mentioned earlier.


    Shortly after the Mno opened its docking bay, the white spaceship opposite them began to move.


    A small cockpit flew out from inside, which was even smaller than a car on Earth. It was oval-shaped and slowly approached the Mno.


    In about a few minutes, everyone arrived at the docking bay and curiously looked at the cockpit.


    The shell of the cockpit slowly disappeared, and two figures walked out from inside.


    One of them was a woman wearing a green leather outfit, with ck shoulder-length hair, but she had two antennae-like protrusions on her forehead and eyes that wererger and darker than a normal person, giving her an odd appearance.


    The other was an old man who seemed kindly and benevolent. Unlike the frail elderly, he looked more vigorous and robust, even giving off a ''still sharp as ever'' vibe, much like Joseph Joestar from the third part of JoJo.


    "Who... are you?" Star-Lord stared at the person in front of him for a long time before deliberately asking.


    "I thought my rugged handsome appearance was proof enough," replied the old being with an air of familiarity, showing a smile he deemed charming, then gently looked at Star-Lord: "My name is Ego, Peter, I am actually your father..."


    However, before Ego could finish his sentence, Fang Mo suddenly interrupted.


    "Sorry mate, I think you''ve got the wrong person."


    Fang Mo suddenly put his arm around Star-Lord''s shoulder, who was still distracted by other things and didn''t pay him any mind: "This guy here, his name isn''t Peter Quill, but rather Luke Skywalker, my dear big son of Darth Vader..."


    "Huh?"


    After hearing Fang Mo''s words, Ego was clearly taken aback and instinctively retorted: "What are you joking about? Peter has my blood, I can sense it... Hm!?"


    He had barely finished speaking when Ego suddenly became aware of this peculiar person.


    He felt a sudden chill in his heart and began to observe the other with a mix of shock and suspicion.


    As an ancient celestial being with the ability to manipte surrounding molecules, Ego quickly sensed something was off; this guy wasn''t any ordinary Earthling. Although he looked simr, he had nothing to do with humans.


    It was some sort of crude and false disguise.


    Beneath thatyer of flesh was an endless void that sent shivers down his spine.


    Darkness, silence.


    Like an ancient, unchanging abyss.


    Truth be told, Ego''s body was also a false creation; his true form was a living, and this flesh was just a tool formunicating with other beings. Even so, he couldn''t help but feel fear.


    Because the kind of deathly stillness, despair, darkness, and madness hidden inside the other...


    Perhaps even his true self couldn''t withstand that kind of ultimate terror from beyond the cosmos. Honestly, if he wasn''t looking for that ''battery'' to fulfill his wish, he would probably have wanted to turn around and leave right then.


    "You..."


    Ego instinctively stepped back: "What in the world are you?"


    "I already told you I''m Darth Vader. What you just witnessed is the dark side of the cosmic Force," Fang Mo patted Star-Lord''s shoulder again: "This is Luke Skywalker, my dear big son."


    "..."


    Ego didn''t know what to say after hearing this.


    He couldn''t understand where Star-Lord met this weird person, and what was this about stealing sons? Didn''t he have a son of his own?


    And just when Ego was a bit at a loss,


    Suddenly a burst ofughter rang out.


    "Hahaha, stop it Fang Mo." Drax had no idea what was happening, so he didn''t think much of it and just startedughing out loud: "Everyone knows Star-Lord is Peter Quill, only you always like to take advantage of others"


    "Did you just go to the bathroom?"


    Fang Mo nced at the straightforward Drax and asked.


    "Yeah." The young Drax hadn''t realized the seriousness of the situation: "Ever since I got this pot, I''ve never had constipation..."


    "How many minutes were you there?"


    Fang Mo asked.


    "Uh..." Drax thought for a moment: "About ten minutes."


    "Oh, okay."


    Fang Mo raised his hand towards Drax, and then a green magic circle suddenly appeared, silently rotating forward a distance: "You didn''t have a satisfying time, go back and do it again."


    "Wait..."


    Drax immediately panicked at the sight, but before he could say anything to stop it, he suddenly burst outughing, reversing his previous words like rewinding a tape, and then walked backwards out of the docking bay with a frying pan, the sound of the toilet door mming shut violently from outside, and finally all was quiet.


    "This"


    Ego waspletely stunned by this scene.


    "Hey, hey, Fang Mo, why are you bullying Drax again?" Rocket Roon also rubbed his forehead seeing this: "There are strangers here, can''t you wait until no one''s around before using that?"


    "Haha, your squad is really interesting."


    Ego quicklyughed, probably trying to lighten the currently bizarre atmosphere: "No worries, little guy, I''m not a stranger, I really am Peter''s biological father, no need to be formal... By the way, what was that move just now?"


    "Oh, that move is called ''Mystic Secret Technique: Apany the Supreme user Ronan in Diarrhea.''"


    Fang Mo shrugged: "For short, ''Apany Ronan in Diarrhea''."


    "It sounds like it''s referring to something." Ego said, but it was clear he didn''t care about these details, so he quicklyughed again: "Anyway, let''s introduce ourselves first, I''ve already introduced myself, I am Ego, Peter''s father, and this is my assistant, you can call her... Mantis."


    "Alright, alright, we all know you are Quill''s loving father."


    Rocket Roon spread his hands: "You can call me Rocket, I am the captain of this Team Rocket, that over there is Quill, your dear big son, no need to introduce him, right?"


    "I am Groot. (I am Groot.)"


    Groot, at this moment, is leading his spiky grandson, amiably waving to Ego, and his spiky grandson also repeated: "I am Groot. (I am Groot.)"


    "You guys actually have two Groots."


    Ego seemed a bit surprised as well: "It looks like your team''sposition is reallyplex, with a descendant of a Celestial, a little creature that speaks human but isn''t human, an upright interster warrior, two Groot, and finally this one is..."


    At this point, Ego also turned to look at Fang Mo.


    Yes, he had suggested everyone introduce themselves, but in reality, he was only really interested in Fang Mo.


    After all, it was unusual for someone to make him feel scared... This was really abnormal.


    Could this guy be something more powerful than the cosmic elders or the Celestials? A true Celestial of the universe? Or some other indescribable entity?


    "Oh, me?"


    Fang Mo said cheerfully: "Don''t mind me, I''m just an ordinary block person yer from another dimension outside this material ne..."


    "Hmm... A lord of dimensions?"


    Hearing Fang Mo''s exnation, Ego responded: "Well, that makes sense."


    As a living that has lived for millions of years, Ego has heard of dimension demons, entities that exist outside the main material ne.


    Dimension demons are indeed powerful.


    Ego had also heard of things like the dark dimension, dream world, and deep red universe... However, Fang Mo clearly wasn''t one of those notorious dimension demons.


    Dimension demons are indeed powerful.


    But usually, they can only exert their full strength in their own dimension.


    Thinking this, Ego quietly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that what he saw was not Fang Mo himself, but the strange dimension that Fang Mo represented, so he was identally scared.


    After all, each of these alternative dimensions was bizarre, and it was normal to be scared by them unintentionally.


    Anyway, after everyone finished introducing themselves.


    Ego also slightly let down his guard.


    In his view, Fang Mo might indeed pose some threat to him, but as is well known, the strength of dimension demons is greatly limited when they leave their own dimension. As a Celestial himself, couldn''t he deal with him?


    And even if he couldn''t.


    If he really couldn''t deal with this dimension demon.


    He still had his great son, Peter Quill, who ording to Yondu, held the Infinity Stones and was immortal, definitely awakening his celestial genes. Ego didn''t know Yondu was lying to him and nowpletely believed it.


    If he, as a celestial, couldn''tbat a dimension demon, what about adding another celestial?


    Just thinking about this.


    Ego couldn''t help but get excited.


    For a long time, Ego wanted to expand himself in the universe, that is, to turn alls into himself.


    Unfortunately, the energy required for such expansion is astronomical, and Ego''s own light energy is far from enough. But now, with Peter Quill as arge ''battery'' of energy, his long-standing wish could finally be fulfilled, and everything in this world would be himself.


    First, devour others to be his own avatar.


    Then use his ability to control surrounding particles to gradually influence the universe itself.


    Once he assimted enoughs, theoretically, he could control all particles in the entire universe, rece the will of heaven with his own, and eventually, everything would be a part of him.


    Once this step was achieved.


    He wouldplete the transformation from a celestial to a true Celestial.


    But what Ego couldn''t dream of was that Star-Lord had long known the deeds he had done, and at this moment, watching Ego getting excited by himself, he just looked on coldly.


    "Sorry Peter, I might havee toote for you."


    Because of his excitement, Ego didn''t notice Star-Lord''s expression and continued talking to him: "After your mother passed away, I hired Yondu Udonta to bring you over, but he didn''t bring you to me and kept you himself..."


    Saying this, Ego also deliberately put on a helpless and sad expression: "Honestly, I don''t know why that is."


    "I''ll tell you why, because after my mother died, I was nearly skin and bones from hunger." Star-Lord looked at Ego, his expression also subtle: "He thought I could sneak into ces adults couldn''t and help him steal things."


    Of course, there was something else Star-Lord didn''t mention.


    That is, he now knows that Yondu truly loved him like his own son. After all, when Fang Mo pretended to threaten him with his own safety, Yondu''s furious state didn''t seem feigned.


    But byparison...


    What about his own biological father?


    "I''m sorry, Peter."


    Ego, unaware of what Star-Lord was thinking, pretended to be helpless and said, "Since then, I have been trying to find you, but Yondu has been avoiding me. I really couldn''t do anything about it; I live too remotely, and only recently did I identally learn of your whereabouts."


    "Do you live very remotely?"


    Star-Lord nced at Ego. "How remote can it be? I''ve been abducted by Yondu for over a decade. No matter how remote your ce is, shouldn''t there be some signs of it? And why didn''t youe to find me yourself instead of sending Yondu..."


    "I''m sorry, son, I really couldn''t do anything about it."


    Ego, pretending to be in pain, said, "About the secret of your lineage... I just mentioned it, right? You are a celestial descendant, and I am that celestial. I have my own difficulties."


    "Difficulties?"


    Star-Lord questioned, "Let me hear what they are, the kind that kept you from even seeing my mother before she died... then sent a notorious ravager to kidnap me? Making me a notorious gctic thief?"


    "I didn''t want it to be this way, Peter."


    Ego spread his hands and exined, "But I can''t leave my for too long, or there will be trouble. Please believe me, once you get to that, you''ll understand everything."


    At that moment, everyone present, Star-Lord, Rocket, Fang Mo, and even the two Groots were silently watching his performance. In fact, everyone already knew about Ego''s issues; they were all just silently watching him act. Only Ego was earnestly trying to maintain his image as a loving father, wittingly battling against thin air to craft his benevolent facade.


    "..."


    Star-Lord deliberately pondered for a moment, then said, "I can go... but I want to go with my friends."


    "Of course, no problem!"


    Upon hearing this, Ego immediately nodded. His was his home field after all. "I wee you and your friends to visit my, how about that?"


    "Shall we go?"


    Star-Lord turned to look at the others, mainly seeking Fang Mo''s opinion.


    "Let''s go."


    Fang Mo,ughing, said, "We are the Team Rocket that leaps across the gxy, the Interster Father Worriers Union. When ites to filial piety, we are the professionals, right, Peter stair Quill..."


    "What the hell is this stair?"


    Rocket Roon, hearing this, couldn''t help but hold his forehead. He could tell Fang Mo was up to some dark humor again, probably rted to Ego, and now could only hope thetter didn''t understand.


    "Haha, it''s okay, I don''t mind these."


    Ego seemed quite magnanimous, partly because he was pretending to be a loving father and partly because he didn''t understand Fang Mo''s filial piety jokes. Heughed and said, "Dimensional demons asionally do that; I was fortunate to meet a few thousand years ago. They often say things that others don''t understand..."


    And as if to corroborate Ego''s words.


    Fang Mo, with a profound touch, patted Star-Lord''s shoulder, "Son, from the day you were born, the whole of Lordaeron has been calling your name"
