Mission Accomplished, Farewell, Adou!

[You know, if you don't explain yourself clearly today, you might not leave here alive.]

["When I was at the Firewood Sect..."]

"The Firewood Sect is a low-level network we have on Blaze Star. Did you infiltrate it on purpose?"

"No, I joined the Firewood Sect because I wanted to find someone to teach me how to gather Qi and form a pill."

"You're almost at the Core Formation stage, and you don't even know that?"

"That's because I come from a very remote place; I'm not from the Blaze Star."

"Blaze Star is remote enough, can you get any more remote? Tell me!"

[You feel that Ji Wuqing's gaze isn't trying to identify suspicious individuals; he clearly wants to hear a story.]

"It all started with a mine..."

[You've positioned yourself as Old Zhang Zhang's apprentice, and while traveling through interstellar space with your master, you're accidentally stranded on Fortune Star, where you're unfortunately dragged into mining.]

[The events surrounding Fortune Star were all fabricated; anything could be pinned on Master Old Zhang, and there's no way to prove it now.]

[Just tell the truth about what happened after the Fortune Star.]

[When the story mentions that the Righteous Army sacrificed themselves so that you could leave Fortune Star, Ji Wuqing wiped away tears.]

"So touching! They are all good sons of my Human Race!"

I never imagined that in such a backward place Third-Class Star, suffering so much from the ravages of Alien Race, they could still have such a spirit of self-sacrifice!

I've decided that the Kindling Society definitely develop its informants towards the Third-Class Star in the future, and the first stop will be the Fortune Star!

["later..."]

"However, this also shows that you are a good leader! A group of mortal Righteous Army can contend with the forces of Cultivator; you are very capable!"

["Well, what happened next..."]

"You must have a lot of personal charisma, otherwise how could so many people sacrifice for you!"

"Miss Ji, wouldn't you like to wait until I finish speaking before you interrupt?"

[Then, you recounted your journey to Blaze Star.]

[You omitted the events in Mystic Maiden Town in this part.]

[After all, it's hard for you to explain why you were able to kill Demon Sha True Monarch so easily.]

[In the Star Harbor Battle to escape Fortune Star, you also attributed most of the credit to Shen Yifeng and his team.]

[Otherwise, it would be hard to explain how you were so fierce.]

[After all, in the eyes of outsiders, you're only at the Core Formation Realm, without even Divine Ability. How could you possibly be a match for the three most powerful forces on a planet?]

Even if it's only a Second-Class Star.

Upon hearing that all members of the Kindling Society Blaze Star had perished, Ji Wuqing wept again.

"The torch is passed down, life continues! They have lived up to the promise they made when they joined the Kindling Society. We salute them!"

[Ji Wuqing clasped his hands in a fist salute towards the sky.]

The people on the ship behind her also did the same thing.

[Now neither of you needs to doubt the other's identity.]

[It's time for you to complete your mission.]

[You told Ji Wuqing to wait here, and you went alone to where Adou was hiding and brought him here.]

[In fact, Ji Wuqing did not know who the Human Race genius she was supposed to meet was.]

[However, every year at this time and place, someone from the Kindling Society be there to meet them.]

[This year it's Ji Wuqing's turn.]

"The Flame Society on Blaze Star Kindling Society willing to sacrifice everyone to send this child out; he must be someone with Heaven-Reaching talent. Let me see just how gifted he is."

[Ji Wuqing didn't use any props; she simply placed one hand in Adou's palm.]

[She was already surprised to see a golden character in each of Adou's palms.]

[She gasped in surprise when the test results came back.]

"The chosen one!"

You're a little curious.

["What's the meaning?"]

"You're not a member of the Kindling Society, so it's best not to ask any more questions. This child is of great importance, Kindling Society do everything in its power to protect his growth. You can rest assured."

"I'd like to inquire. You seem to hold a high position in the Kindling Society, but as the eldest daughter of the Ji Clan, does that mean the Ji Clan clan is a supporter of the Kindling Society?"

Ji Wuqing smiled and shook his head.

["I already told you, don't ask too many questions. Actually, according to procedure, I should kill you to silence you..."]

[Adou stood directly in front of you, arms outstretched.]

"Don't hurt Uncle Chen! If you do anything to harm him, I won't go with you!"

Ji Wuqing looked down at Adou and nodded slightly.

"A person worthy of destiny, with extraordinary character at such a young age!"

Don't worry, although he's not a member of the Kindling Society, he risked his life to bring you here. He's a benefactor of the Kindling Society and a benefactor of the entire Human Race.

Not only will I not kill him, I will also thank him properly!

[You said.]

"Actually, I just wanted to know if Adou could get enough resources if he trained there. If the Ji Clan is on the side of the Kindling Society, then naturally there won't be this problem."

"No need to worry. It's hard to say for ordinary people, but in his case, even if everyone in the Kindling Society stopped cultivating, they would still ensure that he could cultivate in the best possible condition."

However, you shouldn't have too high hopes for him.

Qualifications are qualifications, and fate is fate.

Having high aptitude only indicates a greater probability of future success, not a certainty.

I have also seen many people of average talent who have cultivated to an extremely high level.

I've even seen people with Heaven-Reaching talent who lived mediocre lives.

Spiritual practice is not like pouring water into a vat, where you can get as much as you pour.

You looked at Adou.

"If his future achievements are limited, send him back to me."

"We'll talk about that later."

"Where will he be taken? Is he still on Vermilion Purple Star?"

Seeing that Ji Wuqing remained silent, you gave a bitter smile.

"Fine, that's not something I can ask."

[To nurture a genius under the watchful eyes of countless Alien Race races, yet avoid raising him like a hothouse flower.]

Just thinking about it makes you realize how incredibly troublesome it is.

[But you believe that the Kindling Society find a way, after all, it's an organization that has been passed down for countless years and specializes in this kind of thing.]

[Adou has boarded the ship.]

[Your pile of Spirit Treasure spilled out of your storage bag, turning into a tearful vessel.]

["My little master! Please take this old servant with you!!"]

["Adou, don't forget us! Come home and visit us old folks who are living alone!"]

"Child, when you arrive at your destination, be obedient, cultivate diligently, and grow up well!"

Ji Wuqing did not board the ship.

[She curiously bent down and looked at the parts hanging on your body.]

"That's amazing! All your Post-celestial Spirit Treasure actually have Artifact Spirit? How did you do that?"

"It has nothing to do with me. They were taken away by someone called Duobao Tonglao, and it was she who made them develop Artifact Spirit."

"Our Human Race truly produces many talented individuals!"

"It's a pity that old woman was a bad person."

"Bad guys can be talented too!"

["..."]

[Adou's boat gradually disappeared into the night.]

He stood at the stern, gazing towards the shore.

[You stand on the shore, your gaze lingering, unable to look away.]

A light rain began to fall, sprinkling onto your face.
