Total Annihilation

Inside the main control room of the spaceship.

The returning first squad threw two middle-aged men, bound from head to toe, in front of Captain Aifu Tuolsi. Tuka, the leader, began his report:

"Captain, I have 'invited' two Star-level powerhouses from the Feng Kingdom royal family over. Currently, Buluo is taking that kid Ivan to 'invite' the last one."

Aifu nodded and smiled at the two Star-level experts from the royal family:

"It is very presumptuous of me to invite you in this manner. For this, I, Aifu Tuolsi, offer my sincere apologies."

As he spoke, he signaled his crew members to untie them, and the two crew members obediently removed the chains from the prisoners.

Once the shackles were removed and the two men had tidied up their disheveled appearances, Aifu continued:

"I am Aifu Tuolsi, a space explorer. By a stroke of luck, I arrived at this beautiful planet. Seeing that your civilization has yet to develop, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pity." As he spoke, he even feigned wiping away a tear.

"Today, since I have arrived here, I must help your Yuan Planet civilization integrate into the cosmic civilization!" He looked at the two captives with a face full of sincerity, as if he were truly considering the best interests of Yuan Planet.

However, the two Feng Kingdom royal family members who had been "invited" did not believe his nonsense at all; they simply glared at him with fury, staring daggers at Aifu.

Seeing that his hypocritical performance of shedding crocodile tears couldn't even fool himself, Aifu decided to stop pretending. He laid his cards on the table:

"Forget it, forget it. This is meaningless. What is the point of acting in front of two natives like you? Once you are all gathered, I will have a proper talk with you about the 'strategic development plan' for Yuan Planet!"

As he spoke, the corners of Aifu's mouth gradually curled up, revealing a slightly cruel and ruthless smile.

"Heh, don't get cocky. Once Yunnuo returns from the universe, you'll get what's coming to you!" the older royal middle-aged man kneeling on the ground gritted his teeth and said.

Unexpectedly, this sentence seemed to hit a sore spot for Aifu. He stood up from his chair and walked toward the royal man. With a "bang," the royal man flew out like a kite with a broken string, slammed into the spaceship's hatch, and then slowly slid down to the side of the door.

"You're right! A Planet-level existence who can comprehend the origin laws—if he really could come back, I truly wouldn't be able to afford to provoke him!" After a pause, Aifu continued, "But by the time he returns, I will already be enjoying myself in some corner of the universe with my 'legitimate earnings,' hahahaha."

"Also, let me give you a lesson today. In the universe, you must respect the strong, especially when the strong are speaking, do not interrupt!" After finishing, he ignored the two pairs of angry eyes and turned to ask Tuka:

"Haven't Buluo and Ivan returned yet? Why are they so slow?"

Aifu was already growing impatient. He couldn't wait to round up all the strongest powerhouses of Yuan Planet and then package the entire planet to sell for a good price!

"Well, you might not be able to wait for those two to return." A crisp response came from outside the spaceship.

"Who is it?" Aifu was stunned, then quickly opened the hatch and flew outside.

Outside the spaceship.

A rather handsome young man was floating about 20 meters in front of the ship, wearing pure white battle armor, with a hazy domain aura radiating from his body. It was Lu Yan'an! He had previously hypnotized the two alien warriors to find out the location of their spaceship base, and combined with the intelligence provided by Lord Shen, he had flown straight here!

Aifu flew out of the spaceship rapidly and saw Lu Yan'an immediately. To be precise, he saw Buluo and Ivan, who were being held by Lu Yan'an like two dead dogs.

"You are the last Star-level on Yuan Planet?" Aifu asked Lu Yan'an, while the crew members inside the ship also flew out immediately, forming a pincer formation. However, looking at the scene, it was clear that Aifu's side had more momentum!

"If nothing goes wrong, that should be me." Lu Yan'an said, throwing the two corpses in his hands into the sea below, splashing quite a bit of water as the bodies of Buluo and Ivan gradually sank.

Seeing this, the corners of Aifu's eyes twitched slightly, and his gaze became terrifying.

"You Yuan Planet people are truly interesting! But with just your Star-level ninth-stage strength, you dare to be so arrogant in front of me, a Universe-level powerhouse? Who gave you the courage?" After speaking, the aura around Aifu surged, and a terrifying pressure erupted from his body. That strength, belonging to a Universe-level ninth-stage, made the entire environment feel somewhat oppressive and stifling!

Lu Yan'an, however, didn't buy it at all. Ignoring Aifu's terrifying strength, he teased directly:

"Who's to say? I've always thought we Yuan Planet people were very interesting too! But, do you really think Universe-level is very strong?" Before he finished speaking, a majestic domain power erupted from Lu Yan'an's body. Under the influence of the light domain, the aura around Lu Yan'an became a bit more ethereal and agile. Immediately after, Lu Yan'an tapped his feet in mid-air and charged toward Aifu!

But facing the impact of Lu Yan'an's domain power, Aifu appeared unconcerned, one might even say contemptuous! He also rushed forward and blocked Lu Yan's attack with his arms. He smiled in a somewhat eerie and slightly cruel way: "If domain power is your reliance, then you can rest in peace!" As he spoke, a terrifying domain power also erupted from around Aifu, who was in front of Lu Yan'an! Although the domain power was not as strong as Lu Yan'an's, in close combat, combined with Aifu's Universe-level strength, the two domains directly canceled each other out!

"No, this is impossible!" Lu Yan'an could not accept this reality at all and launched his attacks at Aifu like a madman. In mid-air, the positions of the two constantly shifted, and Aifu kept relying on footwork to dodge the attacks. Until Lu Yan'an had a moment of attack stiffness, Aifu seized this opening and knocked Lu Yan'an back with a whip kick! Lu Yan'an also took the opportunity to fall into the sea.

"Go and catch that guy back; he is already at the end of his rope." Seeing Lu Yan'an defeated by himself, Aifu seemed to have lost interest and ordered his crew members.

Hearing Aifu's order, the crew members also yelled and dived into the sea below, frantically searching for Lu Yan'an's tracks!

And when all the crew members went into the sea to fish for people, a powerful mental force erupted from the entire sea area. It was Lu Yan'an's illusion secret technique, "Huo Shen." All the crew members swept by this force instantly lost consciousness and then fell into the sea like dumplings.

At this moment, Aifu, who was preparing to return to the spaceship, stopped his steps upon sensing this mental force.

"It really is a chore to solve this group of Star-level guys all at once!" Lu Yan'an flew up from the sea, soaking wet, with seawater slowly dripping along his boots...

"You bastard!" Aifu was furious. How could he not see it now? The guy opposite him hadn't been targeting him from the very beginning, but all the crew members on his ship! A feeling of being toyed with welled up; a mere Star-level guy actually dared to pull these little tricks in front of him! Unforgivable!

Aifu charged at Lu Yan'an in a rage; he wanted to make this guy pay the price!

But the current situation was completely beyond his expectations! Previously, to prevent these Star-level crew members from sending distress signals to the outside world through the ship's AI, Lu Yan'an had feigned defeat, waiting for an opportunity to wipe them all out. Now that he had achieved his goal and had no more concerns, Lu Yan'an began to show his true strength!

The previously dispersed domain power was now completely retracted, replaced by the power of laws! Watching Aifu charge at him, Lu Yan'an raised his hand and used the secret technique "Huo Shen"! Taking advantage of the moment Aifu was trapped in the illusion, the artistic conception of time laws and light laws permeated his body, and he instantly appeared in front of Aifu. With just a hand blade wrapped in the power of laws, the once arrogant Aifu fell directly!

"So, the strength gap between Star-level and Universe-level isn't that big after all." Lu Yan'an turned to tease Lord Shen, but Lord Shen ignored Lu Yan'an and instead flew toward the spaceship. Sure enough, compared to humans, it was still more interested in intelligent life!

Thus, this team, which could be ranked among the best among space explorer teams, was completely wiped out on an indigenous planet that had yet to venture into the universe!
