Taking a Disciple

In a spacious lounge area within the spaceship, Su Heng summoned Luo Feng and the other two.

Seeing the nervous expressions on their faces, Su Heng smiled slightly and spoke.

"I imagine you're all quite confused as to why you were taken from Earth."

The three exchanged glances and then nodded.

Even Luo Feng was very puzzled at this moment.

"How should I put this... In short, your planet is very special."

"Of course, when I say special, I mean far beyond my level. I'm not referring to the inheritance of Marquis-level Immortals."

Su Heng said slowly.

"The planet is special? Babata, do you know why?" After Su Heng finished speaking, Luo Feng immediately asked Babata mentally.

"I don't know. Your Earth should be very ordinary. Master only descended upon your planet out of necessity," Babata said with some uncertainty.

"No need to guess. Even within the entire human race, very few people know about this matter," Su Heng shook his head and said to Luo Feng.

The entire human race doesn't know?

Luo Feng was incredibly shocked. Babata had already told him how vast the human race was!

Even Huyan Bo, an Immortal God, had only visited a few Universe Countries in his entire life! His understanding of the entire human race was likely less than one in a hundred million!

Yet, even with such a powerful human race, so few people knew about Earth's special nature!

What exactly was Earth?

"I can't say too much about the specific reasons. Just remember one thing: you must delay the exposure of Earth for as long as possible!"

"Once it's exposed, your homeland will no longer belong to you!" Su Heng said calmly.

But upon hearing this, Luo Feng and the other two turned pale.

Especially Hong, the strongest human on Earth who had been striving since the Great Nirvana!

Ever since Hong received his inheritance from the universe, he had been worried about invasions from civilizations outside Earth!

That was why he had teamed up with Lei Shen to establish martial arts schools, dedicated to improving the strength of all humanity!

"Please, if Earth is exposed, what will happen to us humans on Earth?" Hong's strong mental fortitude allowed him to calm down quickly. After all, such an outcome was already within his predictions; it was merely becoming reality now!

"Given your current status, the humans on Earth would likely be contained and divided." Su Heng thought for a moment before replying.

Due to the modifications Earth humans had undergone, it was unlikely they would be killed outright. However, being divided among the major powers was a high probability.

"Lord Annihilation King, you just said that the exposure of Earth can only be delayed. Does that mean Earth will be exposed no matter what?" Luo Feng asked with a determined expression.

"Yes, the exposure of Earth is an inevitable factor." Su Heng nodded.

As long as Luo Feng and Hong wanted to become powerful figures in the universe, Earth was bound to be exposed.

Even if Hong didn't venture into the Illusion Sea, the outcome would be the same!

After all, it was unreasonable for two powerful individuals with exceptional willpower and character to emerge from the same weak planet, Earth.

"Uh, then how can we delay Earth's exposure?" Even the usually carefree Lei Shen was now contemplating the issue with a serious expression.

"That's a good question." Su Heng smiled slightly, looking at Lei Shen with appreciation before continuing, "As long as you take me as your master, the probability of Earth being exposed will be greatly reduced before you truly grow strong!"

"Take you as master?" The three exclaimed in unison.

"Yes, take me as master!" Su Heng nodded. "I mentioned before that your Earth is very special, and this special nature has granted the three of you a talent that even I envy!"

"This talent is also why I value the three of you so highly!"

"Is that so?" Lei Shen touched his bald head. Did he have a special talent?

"A special talent? I don't see it. That kid Luo Feng isn't that overpowered either, not even as good as a Star Domain Level genius," Babata muttered mentally after hearing this.

"Babata!" Luo Feng's face darkened. They were connected mentally, so he could naturally hear Babata's muttering, especially since Babata hadn't cut off their communication!

"Talent." Hong's eyes flickered. He glanced at Lei Shen, then at Luo Feng, and had a general guess.

However, due to his lack of common knowledge about the universe, Hong couldn't be entirely sure.

"Before we agree to become your disciples, may I ask a question?" Hong, as the eldest among the three, asked Su Heng after exchanging glances with the others.

"Of course." Su Heng nodded, signaling Hong to ask.

"That is, Lord Annihilation King, why do you know about Earth's special nature? If what you said is true, then even within the entire human race, very few people should know.

And Lord Annihilation King, although we don't know your specific strength and status, it's unlikely you are at the very top, right?"

Hong looked at Su Heng, took a deep breath, and then spoke.

Although Babata had just explained the different levels of Immortals to the three of them, Babata itself was only a Marquis-level intelligent life form. It didn't know much about the levels above Immortal.

It only knew that Universe Country Lords were far stronger than Immortals!

Even so, the 1008 Universe Country Lords held a status far exceeding that of King-level Immortals!

No matter what, a Marquis-level Immortal shouldn't be privy to such a secret, right?

"Well, it's a bit too early for you to know that. If any of you surpass me in the future, perhaps I'll tell you then," Su Heng said with a mysterious smile, avoiding the question.

Telling the few about the Mountain Seated Guest was one thing; after all, they would all know about it in the near future.

But regarding his own transmigration, he absolutely wouldn't reveal it until the very last moment.

Hong glanced helplessly at Luo Feng and the other, then nodded.

"Since that's the case, the three of us are willing to take you as our master!"

From the moment Su Heng told them about it, they really had no reason to refuse.

After all, Earth was something none of the three of them could ever abandon!

"Since that's the case, then you are my three personal disciples. Listen clearly, my name is Su Heng, I am a disciple of the Luo Yu Su Family, and my title is the Annihilation King!"

Upon hearing the three agree, Su Heng's expression became serious.

The master-disciple relationship was the most intimate and reliable relationship in the entire universe!

Even family members might not be able to compare to a master-disciple relationship!

"Yes, Teacher!"

The three of them knelt down in unison.
