Leaving Earth

"Seventy million, going once!"

"Everyone, this is a top-grade black dog that Councillor Jiang Ming has touched. If you miss this chance, there won't be another!"

"Seventy million, going twice!"

"Alright, Mr. Number 38 bids seventy-five million!"

"Ms. Number 42 bids ninety million!!"

Jiang Ming looked at the auction screen on his Personal Light Brain, feeling a bit strange.

So this is what it means to ascend to godhood. When one person achieves success, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Jiang Ming thought for a long time before he finally remembered that when he was twelve years old, he had indeed fed half a sausage that had fallen on the ground to a small black puppy.

I thought they were joking about the dogs I touched being priceless, that it was just a meme. I didn't expect it to be real.

Watching the numbers on the screen continuously climb, Jiang Ming couldn't help but inwardly complain.

In the end, this very ordinary mixed-breed dog was bought by a beautiful woman in her thirties.

The final transaction price made even Jiang Ming gasp.

It had sold for the price of a low-level lord monster.

This is bad. If these people are this crazy, will they find the used toilet paper I threw away before?

The thought suddenly struck Jiang Ming, and he couldn't sit still. If anyone dared to do such a thing, he would go ballistic.

"Zero, help me check if there's anyone bold enough."

Jiang Ming spoke.

Upon receiving Jiang Ming's command, the Personal Light Brain on his wrist began to search for data.

Ever since Jiang Ming slew the Beast Emperor, his status had soared to the heavens.

Countless countries and factions wanted to send him gifts.

Knowing that Jiang Ming was interested in civilization relics, they naturally catered to his preferences.

One by one, precious or hard-to-identify civilization relic items were sent to Jiang Ming.

Among them was Zero, who was currently being used in the Personal Light Brain on Jiang Ming's wrist.

While not an Intelligent life, its computing power far surpassed all current Earth technology.

And with Jiang Ming's authority, Zero could easily hack into the networks of all countries and factions.

"There really are people who aren't afraid of death."

Jiang Ming's eyes turned cold, but upon closer inspection, his mood improved slightly.

Every single one of these people was a fraud.

And most of them had already been caught and were preparing to serve a lifetime in prison.

The few who hadn't been caught had their locations basically locked down, and the net was ready to be cast.

"Forget it, let's cool this down."

Jiang Ming issued a command to One.

At this moment, all institutions globally received the command simultaneously. The clamor was buried by a heavy snowfall.

Beep beep~

Just then, his communicator rang. It was Hong calling.

"How does it feel to be the number one person on Earth?"

Hong smiled, understanding Jiang Ming's current situation all too well.

After all, he had gone through the same thing back in the day.

Seeing Jiang Ming now, he felt a touch of schadenfreude, a wicked sense of amusement.

"It's a damn nightmare."

Jiang Ming felt too weary to complain about the audacity and recklessness of those people.

They dared to touch anything and everything.

"Your situation now is much better than mine was back then. You can look at my old case files to see how many people I had to kill to bring the temperature down."

As someone who had been through it, Hong had the most say.

He hadn't had the good fortune Jiang Ming did back then, with major powers rushing to send him gifts.

And allowing Jiang Ming's Personal Light Brain to link to their databases.

Hearing Hong's words, Jiang Ming became curious.

He clicked a few times on his Light Brain and quickly brought up the old case files.

Looking at the string of names on the kill list, Jiang Ming felt considerably better by comparison.

"These people deserve to die."

Jiang Ming glanced at the various regulations above. Compared to them, what Jiang Ming was experiencing now was nothing.

"The greatest obstacle to survival is not weakness, but ignorance and foolishness."

Hong didn't want to dwell on the matter and quickly got to business.

"The spaceship is ready and can depart at any time.

However, the spaceship is quite dilapidated. Although it can fly, and we've reinforced it specifically, it shouldn't break apart.

But your return might not be as easy."

Hong reminded him.

Earth's technology was used to build this spaceship from a dilapidated one. While it could help Jiang Ming quickly approach within eight million kilometers of the star, it couldn't go any closer.

Therefore, this spaceship could only stop in space.

This would undoubtedly cause trouble for Jiang Ming's return journey.

"It's fine."

Jiang Ming waved his hand dismissively.

Once he reached the star and broke through to the Stellar level, with his physical condition, it wouldn't take long to make the round trip.

Moreover, once the Fire God clone was gestated, Jiang Ming would have a Universe level clone.

With the Fire God clone's Universe level speed, the journey from the Sun to Earth would only take the time it takes to eat a meal.

Seeing Jiang Ming's expression, Hong understood his thoughts.

"Yes, I hope you return to Earth soon."

Hong wished him well.

Limitless Martial Arts School Global Headquarters.

A spaceship, two hundred meters long, predominantly black with various other colors, hovered in mid-air.

"Our Earth's technology is insufficient, and the materials we produced have too low strength to withstand space travel.

So, all the materials on this spaceship were salvaged from other ships and pieced together."

Hong explained to Jiang Ming beside him.

Besides Hong and Jiang Ming, Thor was also present.

"Mm."

Jiang Ming looked at the assembled spaceship with some emotion.

Compared to the universe, Earth was too small.

So small that humans on Earth could only piece together a spaceship by scavenging.

"When you return, you'll be Stellar level, right? Then, our Earthlings will finally have a powerhouse."

Thor said from the side.

The two of them were not entirely ignorant of the universe outside. They knew that a Stellar level cultivator already held some status in the universe.

"Not enough, far from enough. Without a spaceship, a Stellar level cultivator would have trouble even leaving the star system. It's far from enough in the universe.

Life has infinite possibilities, and the value of a life-bearing planet is definitely not low.

Do you think a Stellar level cultivator can protect their home planet?"

Although Jiang Ming knew that Hong and Thor weren't the type to entrust everything to others, he worried that if they became complacent because of his appearance, only he and Luo Feng would be left to protect Earth in the future.

"Yes, let us strive together then."

Hong's spirits lifted, and he responded.

"Right! Hahaha, we all have to work hard. One day, I, Thor, will also step into the universe."

Thor laughed heartily.

The three looked at each other.

"I'm leaving."

Jiang Ming flew onto the ship.

Amidst a burst of deep blue engine flames, the spaceship ascended towards the sky.

"Let's go, we can't let that kid Jiang Ming get too far ahead."

Hong said.

"Mm."

Jiang Ming stood before the screen, watching the receding blue planet through it.

He then looked at the boundless darkness of the surrounding starry sky.

"It's truly dilapidated, not even having holographic simulation."

"But the flight speed isn't slow."

Jiang Ming looked at the destination countdown on the screen, thinking to himself.

There will be another chapter later
