Xia Liu's forehead was covered in cold sweat, his body was convulsing in pain, and his mind was in complete disarray.

He has lived for over twenty years, and since childhood he has always been the "model child" in other people's eyes.

She is the envy of everyone.

She was the center of attention, the object of everyone's adulation.

However, at this moment, he was beaten to a pulp by a newcomer who had just joined the team.

He was being questioned by the newcomer who looked down at him from above.

This newcomer is only 19 years old this year.

Moreover, they are newcomers who grew up on Earth and have never enjoyed the resources of their Origin Land.

This utterly crushed his self-esteem.

Even so, he dared not show any dissatisfaction.

He could only endure the excruciating pain, his voice trembling slightly as he said:

"I... I meant you no harm..."

"I sent those two to cause trouble for you, just so I could stage a scene of me standing up for you out of injustice, and make you two acknowledge me as your boss..."

That's all...

After finishing his sentence, Xia Liu added, "The reason I planned to take you two as my underlings is because I saw your evolutionary talent and wanted to rely on you in the future..."

He confessed everything.

Xia Liu, whose strength ranks third in the team, confessed his motives under Lin Zichen's emotionless gaze.

He was afraid that if he didn't honestly explain his motives, Lin Zichen would think the worst and he would be targeted by Lin Zichen endlessly from then on.

After hearing his explanation, Lin Zichen didn't say anything more.

With a casual kick, he sent the man flying.

He didn't stop after kicking.

Instead, he continued to beat Xia Liu in front of Luo Qianxue and Fu Zhou, and in front of the guards on the high walls.

They repeatedly struck Xia Liu's body, beating him beyond recognition.

After beating Xia Liu, they also dragged out Liu Xinyi and Gao Jianying, who were embedded in the tree trunk, and beat them as well.

They beat the three men until they were screaming in pain and begging for mercy.

No matter how much the three begged for mercy, Lin Zichen did not stop.

He wasn't sure if the truth was as Xia Liu had described.

The only thing he was certain of was that he would have to target these three people relentlessly from now on.

He wanted to show his vengeful side in front of everyone watching.

Let people know the consequences of plotting against him.

Only by making an example of someone can we avoid many unnecessary troubles to the greatest extent possible.

On the other side.

The guards on the city wall, as well as the powerful Earth officials in the city center, all noticed Lin Zichen's situation.

They clearly saw Lin Zichen easily overpower Xia Liu, Liu Xinyi, and Gao Jianying.

Everyone was utterly shocked, their faces showing utter disbelief.

It's hard to believe this fact.

Before they could be shocked for long, they soon witnessed Lin Zichen beating up Xia Liu and the other two.

They hit very hard.

Basically, they were attacking him relentlessly.

But it was done in moderation; it wasn't really life-threatening. At most, the three of them would have to stay in bed for ten days to two weeks.

"This child has a small capacity for tolerance."

In an office in the city center, Shangguan Yuehua Deputy City Lord, shook her head, dissatisfied with Lin Zichen's vindictive nature and feeling it was a pity.

Another Deputy City Lord Bai, Bai Wubian, nodded in agreement, saying, "He is indeed a bit narrow-minded. We need to focus on cultivating this aspect of his character in the future, otherwise he might have difficulty partnering with others."

Qin Chuan, the City Lord, remained silent throughout, simply gazing at Lin Zichen in the mental image, lost in thought.

Whether Lin Zichen was magnanimous or not, he didn't care.

If someone is strong enough, plenty of people will be willing to accommodate their magnanimity.

What he really cared about was the strength that Lin Zichen had demonstrated.

He's only 19 years old, grew up on Earth, and has never enjoyed the resources of his Origin Land.

He has never fused with the genes of Exotic Beast and has always followed the Pure-Blood Human Path.

Logically speaking, people who meet these two criteria should all be those with low evolutionary talent.

How could a monster like Lin Zichen be born?

I don't understand.

I completely don't understand.

Qin Chuan was completely baffled. He looked at one of the secretaries in front of him and said, "Lijuan, bring me Lin Zichen's personal file. I want to know more about his personal information."

There are no computers available at the Origin Land.

To find someone's file, you have to go to the archives.

Soon.

The secretary left the office and walked towards the archives.

Then, in less than half a minute...

The secretary respectfully handed Qin Chuan a file folder woven from special Exotic Plant fibers.

Qin Chuan took the file bag, took out a yellowish-white sheet of paper from it, and carefully read through it word by word.

At the same time, he dispersed his Mental Power to form a mental projection in front of him, allowing others in the office to view it as well.

"What's going on? Lin Zichen's parents are actually just ordinary people?"

"This doesn't make any sense from genetics."

"There might be something wrong with his personal file."

"..."

After reviewing Lin Zichen's personal file, a murmur of doubt immediately arose in the office.

Every leader present believed that there was something wrong with Lin Zichen's personal file.

They couldn't believe that an ordinary couple could give birth to a genius like Lin Zichen.

Like begets like; a dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, and a mouse's son knows how to dig holes—this aligns with the laws of biological inheritance.

In front of the city gate.

Lin Zichen has stopped beating her.

It's not that he's had enough.

Instead, Xia Liu, Liu Xinyi, and Gao Jianying all fainted.

If they keep hitting, someone might die.

Lin Zichen really went all out... Fu Zhou looked at the three people lying half-dead on the ground and thought to himself that he must never offend Lin Zichen in the future.

I'd rather suffer a loss myself than displease Lin Zichen.

Stay away from such ruthless people who hold grudges and seek revenge.

On the other side.

Shen Qinghan hesitated for a moment, then mustered her courage to step forward and inquire about Luo Qianxue's condition, looking at her arm and asking:

"Um... is your hand alright?"

In the previous fierce battle with Liu Xinyi and Gao Jianying, Luo Qianxue's arms were both torn and bleeding, and she looked quite badly injured.

Shen Qinghan felt pain just looking at it.

In response to Shen Qinghan's concern, Luo Qianxue simply replied in a cold voice:

"It's alright, it'll be over soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, a mysterious white substance quickly began to secrete from the surface of Luo Qianxue's injured arms.

It looks like fresh milk.

But it doesn't smell very good.

The moment these white substances appeared.

Luo Qianxue's arm injuries healed instantly, returning her to full health.

There was absolutely no sign of injury.

Upon seeing this, Shen Qinghan's beautiful eyes widened in shock.

Both she and Lin Zichen possess the Rapid Self-Healing ability of Living Dead Slug.

No matter how severe the injury, as long as there is enough energy, it can quickly repair itself.

To recover to the state before the injury.

However, the speed of self-healing is completely incomparable to the speed of Luo Qianxue's self-healing in front of us.

They're not even in the same league.

What exactly was that white substance secreted from Bai Xue's hands...? Shen Qinghan stared at the white substance on Luo Qianxue's hands, her heart filled with curiosity.

She remembers it very clearly.

The reason why Luo Qianxue was ostracized at school back then was not only because she had a head of extremely conspicuous white hair, but also because her body secreted a mysterious white substance with a very unpleasant smell.

Opposite.

Seeing that Shen Qinghan Luo Qianxue's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she felt somewhat displeased.

She assumed Shen Qinghan was staring at the white substance because she smelled a foul odor.

She quickly turned and left, not lingering there.

She doesn't like being looked at with strange eyes.

Shen Qinghan wanted to call out to her, but didn't know how, so in the end she could only watch her leave.

At the same time.

Lin Zichen ignored Xia Liu and the other two who had completely fainted, and turned around to walk slowly towards Fu Zhou, who was not far away.

Upon seeing this Fu Zhou panicked.

He didn't say a word from beginning to end and didn't offend Lin Zichen.

Logically speaking, there's no reason for her to be afraid of Lin Zichen.

However, when Lin Zichen walked towards him, he couldn't help but feel afraid.

It's not that he's a coward.

Rather, it was because Lin Zichen had acted too brutally when he beat up Xia Liu and the other two.

Violent people are usually not very bright.

Easily angered.

They are easily angered and take their anger out on others.

It is highly likely that innocent people will be harmed.

As Lin Zichen drew closer, Fu Zhou became so nervous that he was drenched in sweat, and his legs went weak uncontrollably.

After calming himself down a bit, he quickly distanced himself from Xia Liu and the other two, saying:

"I'm not with them!"

"I know."

Lin Zichen said calmly.

Do you know?

Did you know they were still walking this way?

Are you planning to prey on even strangers?

Damn it, you son of a bitch!

Fu Zhou was so angry that he cursed inwardly, while cold sweat poured down his face, fearing he would be beaten.

"I just wanted to ask, when you go out of the city for training in the future, could you take the two of us with you?"

Lin Zichen stopped in front of Fu Zhou and asked him in a very kind tone.

Fu Zhou was taken aback upon hearing this.

What?

So you wanted me to be your mentor?

You scared me...

Fu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled broadly and said, "Of course, it would be my honor."

He wasn't flattering anyone; he genuinely felt honored to take Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan out for training.

Keep in mind that Lin Zichen is only 19 years old and has just joined the team of Exotic Human Tier geniuses.

Moreover, they have never enjoyed the resources of the Origin Land.

Even so, Lin Zichen was able to completely dominate Xia Liu, who ranked third in the team.

What does that mean?

This means that Lin Zichen is destined to be among the strongest Earthling on Earth in the future.

They will definitely evolve into Legendary Tier creatures in the future.

Moreover, it is a Legendary Tier creature in the top tier.

Now that I have the opportunity to take him out for experience and build a good relationship with him, this is an opportunity I've been longing for.

I can even wake up laughing in the middle of the night when I go back to sleep.

"I don't know how to address you?"

Seeing that the other party readily agreed, Lin Zichen asked with a slight smile.

He still doesn't know Fu Zhou's real name.

Because Fu Zhou didn't introduce himself, Lan Tianbai didn't introduce him either.

"My name is Fu Zhou, Fu as in driver and Zhou as in the Nine Provinces. I'm only five years older than you, so you can just call me Fu Zhou."

Fu Zhou introduced himself with a smile that didn't fade.

He rarely smiles and usually presents himself with a relatively aloof demeanor.

After all, he's been a genius since childhood, so it's normal for him to be a bit aloof.

But at this moment, facing Lin Zichen, whose evolutionary talent is unprecedented, he couldn't be aloof at all; he just wanted to be a subordinate and smile obsequiously.

"So it's Brother Zhou."

Lin Zichen smiled in response, "Then, if Brother Zhou ever wants to go out of the city for training, I'd appreciate it if you could take the two of us with you."

Although the other party said that it was fine to just call him by his name, he still politely called him "brother," showing great kindness.

Upon hearing the words "Brother Zhou," Fu Zhou was also taken aback.

Having just witnessed Lin Zichen beating Xia Liu and the other two with great force, he subconsciously assumed that Lin Zichen's personality was not easy to get along with.

But now it seems he has misunderstood something.

Lin Zichen's personality doesn't seem difficult to get along with.

The person was quite polite.

They weren't as arrogant as I had imagined.

Thinking it over, and wanting to please Lin Zichen, Fu Zhou smiled and started flattering him, saying:

"Speaking of Zichen, you're so handsome! You're absolutely stunning, breathtakingly beautiful, with a beauty that would make even the most beautiful women pale in comparison."

A beauty that could topple kingdoms?

Does it make fish sink and geese fall from the sky?

Does it make the moon hide its face and the flowers blush?

Are these three idioms used in this way?

Lin Zichen looked surprised and confused, wondering what Fu Zhou's mental state was when he said those words.

Shen Qinghan, who had just stepped forward, shared the same doubts, suspecting that Fu Zhou was being sarcastic.

"You two seem to get along really well. I've heard Provincial Governor Ye mention before that a couple would be joining the team soon. I suppose that couple is you two, right?"

Fu Zhou asked with a smile.

Lin Zichen nodded. "Yes, it's us."

After receiving a positive reply.

Fu Zhou also let loose, praising Shen Qinghan along with him:

"Your girlfriend is just as beautiful as you, handsome, dashing, and charming. You two are a perfect match."

Handsome and dashing?

Handsome and dashing?

Debonair and dashing?

How to use these three idioms to praise a girl?

Was this intentional or accidental?

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were genuinely confused, unsure whether Fu Zhou didn't understand the meaning of these idioms or was just being sarcastic.

Finally, Shen Qinghan couldn't hold back any longer and said in a weak voice:

"Um... Brother Zhou, you seem to have used the idiom backwards."

"A beauty that could topple kingdoms and cities, a beauty that could make fish sink and geese fall from the sky, a beauty that could shame the moon and put flowers to shame—these are phrases used to praise women."

"Handsome and dashing, debonair and charming—that's how you praise a man."

"..."

"Hey, they all mean the same thing, they're just complimenting someone's looks, don't worry about the details."

After finishing his sentence, Fu Zhou added, "I wasn't even old enough to go to kindergarten when I was sent Origin Land to be tempered. I didn't study much, so I only have a superficial understanding of many idioms. It's normal to use them incorrectly, so please don't take it too seriously."

I understand.

Lin Zichen smiled.

He genuinely understands, rather than just agreeing with what he's saying.

In such a desolate place Origin Land, there are no cell phones or computers, making it difficult to access knowledge-related content.

Growing up in such a place, without the opportunity to spend time learning cultural knowledge, it's perfectly normal to become illiterate as an adult.

The westernmost part of the Origin Land.

Inside the dimly lit palace.

A man surrounded by black energy sat casually on the throne, one hand supporting his head.

Below him, kneeling on one knee, was a slender woman in palace attire, also shrouded in black mist.

"Your Majesty, after several tests, we can now confirm that the Boundary Force on Earth is very weak."

The woman reported, then asked in a very respectful voice, "Should we cooperate with the Sun and Sun-Moon Sacred Land to have them build Biological Passage here?"

The man opened his mouth, which was as black as a hole, and said in a voice tinged with desolation, "The newly built passage needs a considerable amount of time to stabilize before it can accommodate powerful beings. There's no need to wait that long."

"So, what does the monarch mean...?"

The woman slightly raised her exquisitely white, oval face and spoke in a soft, feminine voice.

The man opened his deep, dark eyes, his voice deathly still. "Spread the word about the Abyss Ruins to lure away all the Earth's powerful warriors guarding the city. Then we'll directly attack the city and invade Earth through those ancient Biological Passage beneath it."
