Sun Wukong's battle had ended, but Lin Xiao and Leina had vanished halfway through.
Not long after the battle began, Leina's expression suddenly changed. Then she got up and walked outside.
"I'm heading out. Keep watch."
"The team's fighting. Where are you going?"
Lin Xiao called after Leina's retreating figure, but received no response. She looked to be in quite a hurry.
"That's strange. Where's that girl going? Could she be sneaking off for a date? No, I have to go take a look!"
"You two keep watch here. I'm going out to check!"
After saying that, Lin Xiao ran out as well, leaving Qi Lin and Lian Feng staring at each other speechlessly.
The team was still fighting, yet both commanders had run off. What was this? Neither of them was reliable.
"Big Sis Lian Feng, did they sneak off to date?"
Since Qi Lin often secretly slipped off with Lin Xiao to fool around in the woods, her thoughts immediately went off track when she saw Lin Xiao and Leina leave.
"Don't imagine things. Judging by Leina's expression, something must have happened. We'll keep watch for them."
"Fine. I'm going to eat cake. What's so interesting about this fake battle?"
Qi Lin thought Lian Feng made sense, but watching the battle on the screen still bored her.
"Everyone, use your weapons and eliminate Sun Wukong's clones. Su Xiaoli, go hold back Sun Wukong himself."
The battlefield changed in an instant. The two teams were thrown into chaos by Sun Wukong's clones, and Lian Feng could only fulfill her duty as acting commander.
"Quit talking nonsense. Get up there when you're told. Sun Wukong won't hit you. Otherwise, when you get back, you'll be confined and have your phone confiscated."
Faced with Su Xiaoli's nonsense, Lian Feng immediately brought out her trump card. Su Xiaoli instantly behaved herself.
Unfortunately, what happened next made her face darken. She simply shut off the screen and could not be bothered to manage things anymore.
"Damn it, Qi Lin, let's go eat desserts!"
"Okay."
After leaving the laboratory, Lin Xiao raised both hands, and a tiny flame appeared in his palm.
This was the evolved artificial intelligence he had just completed. He had borrowed a name once used on Earth: Fire Seed.
"Xiaoguang, help me locate Leina."
A map appeared in Lin Xiao's mind, with Leina's location marked inside a conference room in the Super God Academy office building.
"Yiya yaya!"
Xiaoguang made a childish sound, and a feeling of closeness was conveyed to Lin Xiao.
Xiaoguang was still only in her infancy. She could not speak clearly yet, like a newborn baby.
But Xiaoguang would grow, and her functions would gradually improve. Her intelligence module and infection module would gradually be completed, turning her into a true Fire Seed.
Once completed, Xiaoguang could use the infection module to infect mechanical bodies at high speed, transforming them into new intelligent beings. Aside from their steel bodies, they would be no different from real humans.
Lin Xiao was also forging a body for Xiaoguang, a growing mechanical body. This plan had nearly scared Lian Feng to death.
Lin Xiao was creating a new life. If he succeeded, he would create a new intelligent race, one that was immortal and extraordinarily powerful.
Of course, Lin Xiao had watched plenty of movies before transmigrating. There were too many stories where humanity was destroyed after creating terrifying artificial intelligence, so he had taken many precautions.
Xiaoguang's body would be a purely mechanical one. She would also serve as the mother body, creating other new lives.
Lin Xiao would not equip them with synthetic skin. Moreover, he had written the prohibition against using synthetic skin into their core programming, specifically to distinguish them from humans.
Fearing one's own creations was one of Lin Xiao's greatest virtues. He would not become intoxicated with his works and would always remain vigilant against the potential dangers within them.
Inside the top-floor conference room of the Super God Academy office building, Leina sat at the head of the table. Across from her sat the Holy Left Wing, Angel Yan, accompanied by two guardian angels.
"Little girl, are you going to jump over here and hit me?"
"That depends on what you say, old hag."
One was a young chief god, while the other was the future Angel King. Both queens had overwhelming presences, and their opening exchange was immediately hostile.
"Speak. What are you angels doing here?"
Leina knew some of Fierce Sun Civilization's history, so she did not think much of angels and went straight to the point.
"We angels discovered Earth tens of thousands of years ago. And thousands of years ago, we began protecting life on Earth. Now it stands exposed before every force in the universe. I believe Earth should continue to exist under the angels' righteous order."
Queen Keisha liked crossing her legs, and her angels naturally followed her example.
Angel Yan sat with her legs crossed in a relaxed manner and lightly tapped the table.
"We of Fierce Sun do not have the word 'justice.'"
Bang!
Just as Leina spoke, someone suddenly kicked open the conference room door. Lin Xiao walked in with a cold smile.
"Heh, if you're discussing Earth's affairs, shouldn't you ask us Earthlings for our opinion?"
Lin Xiao's appearance startled both sides, especially Leina, whose expression immediately fell.
"Who are you?!"
The two guardian angels behind Angel Yan immediately drew their Flame Swords and pointed them at Lin Xiao.
"Heh, are guests drawing swords against their host?"
Lin Xiao snapped his fingers, and the two guardian angels suddenly found themselves unable to move.
A chair flew out from the corner, and Lin Xiao sat down with a faint smile.
The two guardian angels exerted all their strength, but they could not break free from Lin Xiao's control. Their hands rose against their will and threw their Flame Swords onto the floor.
"What kind of ability is this?"
The moment Angel Chase and Angel Mo Yi regained control of their bodies, they quickly retreated, their faces filled with terror. That feeling of having no control over themselves was simply too horrifying.
"Y-you... you're that Sleeping Beauty!"
Angel Yan ignored everything else, staring at Lin Xiao with a face full of shock. Soon, his figure overlapped with the figure in her memories.
"Sleeping Beauty? What the hell? You know me?"
Angel Yan's expression and words left Lin Xiao somewhat bewildered. He had no idea why she was reacting like this.
"Haha, you actually woke up! The Heavenly Foundation King will definitely be very happy!"
"Awakened... Heavenly Foundation King... Damn, no way."
A guess suddenly surfaced in Lin Xiao's mind. While he had been sealed in crystal, what had those angels done to him?
"Tell me what you know about me!"
Lin Xiao had already roughly guessed it. After he was sealed and fell asleep, He Xi had surely taken him back to Angel Civilization. He just did not know why she had sent him back in the end.
"I only saw you once at the Heavenly Foundation King's place. Everything else is just hearsay."
Angel Yan had been shocked upon seeing Lin Xiao, so she no longer put on airs and seriously answered his question.
"What kind of rumors?"
"It is said that you existed even before the era of the Three Kings. The Heavenly Foundation King tried for countless years but could never awaken you. There are also rumors that the Heavenly Foundation King's data matches yours one hundred percent. There are many more, but I always treated them as legends!"
"Then how did I return to Earth? When did I come back?"
Lin Xiao did not care about Angel Yan's teasing tone. It was more or less what he had guessed. He only wanted to know when he had returned to Earth.
"I know about that. It was around six thousand years ago. I was still young then. The Second Demon War was fought terribly, and the death of the Holy Left Wing at that time dealt a heavy blow to all of Angel Civilization. It was then that the Heavenly Foundation King sent you back to Earth. The escort formation was incredibly extravagant, and it caused quite a stir."
So that was how it was. Perhaps He Xi had suffered some kind of blow back then, which was why she had sent him away.
Lin Xiao had finally filled in some of the blanks from his time asleep. It also explained why He Xi had left behind so much information.
"So then, beautiful angel, what brings you to Earth? Earth's affairs should be discussed with me."
Since he had some connection to the angels, Lin Xiao felt he should be a little more polite.
"I am Yan, left-wing guard of Holy Keisha!"
Angel Yan gave something of a self-introduction, but she did not ask about Lin Xiao. Instead, her eyes turned white as she directly activated Dark Dimension information reading.
Lin Xiao frowned. This was what he disliked about angels—they were too domineering. But since he knew such a thing existed, he naturally had not left himself defenseless.
Angel Yan quickly stopped reading, because she could not read anything at all. Leaving aside his other defenses, Lin Xiao's Mental Strength alone was enough to shield his information.
"Heh, it seems angels still need to improve their manners. My name is Lin Xiao, major general of the Huaxia Earth Defense Force and commander of the Super God Company."
Watching Angel Yan wonder why she could not read any information, Lin Xiao took the initiative to introduce himself.
