Solar Sage Monarch

Earth, Heroes Cemetery.

Luo Feng stood before the monument, his fingertips holding three sticks of incense, letting the wisps of smoke drift over his eyebrows and eyes.

He stood silently for a long time, until the distant sounds of car horns gradually intensified, coming from the various powerful clans that had received the news.

In recent years, Earth has gained fame and become the envy of everyone in the universe as a "legendary birthplace of geniuses," attracting countless forces. Among the convoy that has just arrived are many heavily pregnant women, who have come specifically to await childbirth, drawn by Earth's "auspicious energy" and the protection of Luo Feng.

However, all of these people were stopped by the guards stationed outside the cemetery. The guards were courteous but firm in their attitude, politely asking the group of visitors to leave.

Firstly, Luo Feng has always disliked being disturbed by mundane matters when paying respects to fallen heroes; secondly, the cemetery is bustling with people today, a mixed bag, and there's no guarantee that someone won't take advantage of the "accident" to extort money.

Only a few groups of people were personally received by Luo Feng.

They are the direct descendants of the Five Great Heroes, the relatives of those meritorious soldiers who died on the battlefield, the Weidi Family who reside on Earth, and the Iron Luo Tribe who swore allegiance to the Luo Family long ago.

As soon as these people entered the cemetery, they respectfully performed the three kowtows and nine bows to the hero's tombstone before turning to Luo Feng and bowing in respect.

"Greetings, Galaxy Lord! Greetings, King Anle!"

"Boss! You're back!"

May Lord Luo be well! King Anle!

Luo Feng stepped forward and personally helped the elderly man at the front to his feet, saying gently, "Please get up, no need for such formalities."

O

He took everyone's hands and inquired in detail about their recent situations, asking if the family was facing any difficulties, whether the Luo Family had been neglectful, and if there was anything else that needed his intervention.

The crowd's answers were all earnest, "Thanks to the lord and King Anle, everything is well."

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone bowed respectfully to Tang Ping before slowly leaving the cemetery with deep reverence.

Tang Ping stood to the side, lazily waving goodbye.

Three days later, Luo Feng stood on the observation deck of the Floating City, looking down at the bustling, technologically advanced Earth below, and suddenly felt a surge of emotion. "Seeing the descendants of these heroes living peacefully, I finally feel at ease."

Back then, I was lucky enough to survive, and in the end, it was because I carried on their legacy.

Tang Ping leaned against the railing and nodded slightly upon hearing this. If he could protect these people while taking care of himself, he would be willing.

"However—" Luo Feng changed the subject, turning to look at Tang Ping, his eyes filled with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, "I've noticed something strange, these people seem to like you more?"

In his view, Tang Ping has been in charge of the Solar System for thousands of years, but he hasn't done much of a proper job. He spends all his time either organizing beauty pageants or figuring out novel ways to eat, drink, and have fun. If this happened in ancient times, he would definitely be a model of a "tyrant".

Yet, whether they were native inhabitants of the earth or immigrants from elsewhere, the eyes of those who looked at him were filled with worship and admiration.

Upon hearing this, Tang Ping's lips immediately curled into a smile, and he smugly pulled out a Jade Seal from his Space Ring. The Jade Seal was pure white, engraved with dragon patterns, and in the center were eight ancient seal characters. "By the mandate of Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous."

He waved the Jade Seal in front of Luo Feng, his nostrils practically pointing to the sky. "See that? Go search on Earth's regional network, what do those literary giants and media reporters call me? The Solar Sage Monarch! They say I have the demeanor of the ancient Emperor Wen!"

He suddenly straightened his face and glared at Luo Feng with feigned authority. "No, Fengzi, you should address me as 'I, the Emperor'!"

This time, I'll let it slide; you're temporarily pardoned!

Luo Feng: "----"

He was so curious that he simply brought up a virtual screen and logged into Earth's public network. What he found there really surprised him.

The posts are densely packed with discussions about Tang Ping, and the topic is quite popular.

Chen Xiyue exclaimed in disbelief, "Brothers! I've uncovered a shocking secret! King Anle has ruled the Solar System for thousands of years, and not a single wrongful conviction has occurred! All cases are completely public; files and video evidence are available to anyone online! What has Earth done to deserve such a sage in charge?"

Justice-themed girl in black stockings. "Hehe~"

Captain/db. "@JusticeBlackStockingsGirl, what are you chuckling about? So sarcastic! Am I wrong? If King Anle wanted to be emperor, I'd be the first to vote for him!"

Suifeng1937: "I second that! I've traveled through so many star fields and seen so many King Rank Marquis Rank, but none of them can compare to King Anle!"

He has reigned over the world for thousands of years, never allowing his children to come to Earth and benefit from it in the slightest. Even his maids are publicly punished for their mistakes, showing no favoritism! Every hundred years, he selects only one hundred maids and trains them to the cosmic level for free!

In contrast, our Galaxy Lord —cough cough—has killed tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions, of people, directly or indirectly, right? [doge emoji for protection] He forever cherishes virtue, thus fulfilling the will of Heaven, upholding benevolence and righteousness, ensuring clear punishments, respecting the virtuous as honored guests, and loving the people like his own children. He forgives what is right in his heart and extends it throughout the land. Therefore, he has brought peace to the nation and prosperity to the world. Calling him a Holy Monarch is truly not an exaggeration!

My Little Carp: "Hahahaha! Galaxy Lord's reputation -1!"

Sanjiu Shi: "What shocked me most was the life of the King Anle! He was so frugal! For thousands of years! Apart from eating, drinking and having fun, he never accepted a single penny from any power, including the Luo Family!"

Do you know what he's wearing? It's just ordinary silk brocade from Earth! The material is so thin it tears easily; even an alien beggar would reject it!

Love Is You and Me 520: "Emperor Anle! He was frugal, refused gifts, did not seek personal gain, loved beautiful women, and his virtue was as vast as heaven and earth, benefiting the four seas! He deserves to have a temple built for Emperor Taizong!"

Yongye Jiangmian: "6666! Damn cultured people! All I can say is that King Anle is awesome!"

Oath Under Snow: (Silently pulls out a novel) Without saying a word, starts reading <I Am the King Anle's 10081>

"Don't even mention it, it's really lewd! The key point is that the Luo Family didn't even ban it!"

"More handsome than Leonardo DiCaprio: 'I've noticed the key! I'll trade you <The Overbearing King Anle Falls in Love with My 100-Year-Old Daughter and Me Who Work as a Cleaner>!'"

Tang Ping, who had been sitting with his legs crossed and looking smug, suddenly turned pale when he caught a glimpse of the scrolling posts on Luo Feng's virtual screen, especially the last bunch of pornographic books.

Damn it, these unruly people!

Tang Ping rushed forward, scribbling wildly at Luo Feng's virtual screen, and shouted as he changed the subject, "Brother Feng! Didn't you say you wanted to talk about listing Earth's real estate? Come on, come on! Lei Zi and Brother Hong are almost here, let's drink until we drop!"

He patted Luo Feng on the shoulder and winked, "Seriously, you three were my idols when we were kids! The Galaxy Lord, Hong, Thunder God, and me, cough cough, the Solar Sage Monarch."

The three of us standing here, that's the grandeur of the Solar System!

Luo Feng chuckled at Tang Ping's flustered appearance, but then, remembering something, his laughter faded. He looked at Tang Ping and suddenly recalled the days after the Beast Cataclysm when the heroes' families, including his own, were ostracized and persecuted.

He raised his hand and gently patted Tang Ping's shoulder, his voice tinged with emotion. "Perhaps you are right."

Tang Ping was taken aback.

"There has to be someone to look after the descendants of heroes, to ensure they can live peacefully and securely, doesn't there?"

Tang Ping was stunned and looked up at Luo Feng. The sunlight fell on Luo Feng's profile, making his cold and stern face appear gentle. At this moment, an inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart, and his nose even felt a little sore.

Luo Feng was actually really tired! But he really couldn't stop, and he didn't dare to stop.

Then, he puffed out his chest and said seriously, "That's right! Brother Feng, you really understand me! You see that my true nature is that of a noble, generous, philanthropic, selfless, and indifferent master!"

"All that eating, drinking, and entertainment is just a disguise I use to hide my excellent appearance and noble character! Do you understand? This is called 'true seclusion in plain sight'!"

Looking at his "praise me" expression, Luo Feng's lips twitched, and he finally uttered only three words: "----Get lost."
