Earth's Secret
When the Nine Sword Venerable arrived in the Solar System with his people, Luo Feng and Xu Qing immediately went to greet them.
"Welcome, Nine Sword Venerable!" Xu Qing and Luo Feng stood in front of the Spaceship and bowed.
Two figures appeared, namely Nine Sword Venerable and Long Yu King, who teleported directly out of the Spaceship.
"This is your home planet, Earth," said the Nine Sword Venerable and the Long Yu King, gazing at the beautiful, azure planet.
It must be said that even though both of them have seen countless beautiful planets with life, they still find the beauty of Earth breathtaking.
"Yes, Your Venerable," Luo Feng replied respectfully.
"Not bad, the Origin Law Mark has been condensed. It seems that the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge is also within reach," the Nine Sword Venerable said, looking at the mark between Luo Feng's eyebrows with satisfaction.
"Zhen Yan has taken on a good disciple," Long Yu King said with a smile.
Then, the two looked at Xu Qing, Xu Qing met their gazes and chuckled.
The Nine Sword Venerable had known about Xu Qing, this clown, for quite some time, so he simply pretended not to see it.
Long Yu King glanced at him a few more times. This must be the genius rascal that the Venerable had mentioned, and also Luo Feng's brother-in-law.
On Earth, Xu Qing and Luo Feng accompanied the Nine Sword Venerable and the Long Yu King on a tour of the planet.
The Nine Sword Venerable frowned slightly. He had searched the Earth thoroughly, inside and out, but found nothing amiss.
"Your Venerable, have you made any discoveries?" Long Yu King asked.
Xu Qing and Luo Feng also perked up their ears.
"Nothing has been discovered yet; perhaps I've overlooked something," the Nine Sword Venerable shook his head.
"Your Venerable may stay here for now and explore at your leisure. I have already prepared accommodations for Venerable," Luo Feng said.
The Nine Sword Venerable hummed in agreement.
Hearing that the Nine Sword Venerable had agreed to stay, Luo Feng felt relieved. He had a bad feeling, as if something was about to happen.
With the Nine Sword Venerable here, there's not much to worry about.
Over the next few days, the Nine Sword Venerable traveled all over the Earth, pondering what secrets it might hold.
It was at this moment that an uninvited guest arrived.
"Venerable, the people from the Giant Axe Dojo have arrived! There are seven King Level Immortal, and the rest are Marquis Level Immortal!" The Nine Sword Venerable learned of this news immediately.
"The Giant Axe Dojo, they really sent people," a strange light flashed in the eyes of the Nine Sword Venerable.
It seems there must be some secret on Earth, and a very big one at that, for the Giant Axe Dojo to take this so seriously and send so many powerful fighters here.
"The people at the Giant Axe Dojo must know some secrets about Earth. In that case, I'll just ask them directly," the Nine Sword Venerable thought.
In the skies above the Earth, unfamiliar figures appeared, emanating a powerful aura.
The leader, King Level Immortal, was an exceptionally handsome man. He was the King Yan Shi, and his father was a powerful Venerable.
"This is Earth. The lord is that native named Luo Feng, who is also a disciple of the King Zhen Yan. Heh," King Yan Shi sneered.
He and King Zhen Yan were mortal enemies. He was beaten to a pulp by King Zhen Yan back then, which caused him to hold a grudge ever since.
Since Luo Feng is the disciple of the King Zhen Yan, he certainly won't hold back.
However, the next second, a terrifying pressure spread out, causing him to immediately show a look of fear.
Even the Immortal behind him trembled with fear.
"Venerable!" They all realized that this was the aura of Universe Venerable.
King Yan Shi was bewildered. How could Universe Venerable be here? Had the other Venerable from the Giant Axe Dojo arrived?
The space shifted, and a majestic figure emerged—it was none other than the Nine Sword Venerable.
The moment they saw the Nine Sword Venerable, King Yan Shi and the others turned pale. How could it be the Universe Venerable of the Virtual Universe Company?
However, they immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Nine Sword Venerable!"
"Speak, what brings you here?" The Nine Sword Venerable's indifferent gaze swept over them, sending chills down their spines.
They knew very well that if they dared to tell a single lie, they would surely die.
"My father sent me to discuss the acquisition of Earth," King Yan Shi gritted his teeth, still not daring to lie.
"Why acquire Earth?" The Nine Sword Venerable's voice remained indifferent.
After a moment's hesitation, the King Yan Shi decided to tell the truth, daring not to lie in any way.
Even if his father is also a Universe Venerable, he absolutely cannot protect him against another Universe Venerable, unless his father is here right now.
"The Earth has been modified by powerful Alien Race beings?" Nine Sword Venerable exclaimed in surprise.
No wonder the people at the Giant Axe Dojo wanted Earth; the reason is here, something even the Virtual Universe Company hadn't noticed.
"Could it be... that great being from the Giant Axe Dojo has been here?" Nine Sword Venerable wondered.
If anyone could perceive such a secret, it would be the most powerful being among the Human Race.
"Earth is the home of the Core Member of my Virtual Universe. The Giant Axe Dojo has no right to interfere. Leave," the Nine Sword Venerable said, having learned what he wanted to know, and naturally stopped making things difficult for them.
"Yes, Your Venerable," King Yan Shi replied reluctantly, but he could only lead his men away in a dejected manner.
The Nine Sword Venerable stood in the starry sky, looking at Earth, his expression becoming solemn.
"A special location can nurture a race with a powerful mind. What a terrifying method. And now that it is the territory of my Human Race, it means that it can nurture more top experts for my Human Race." The Nine Sword Venerable took a deep breath and immediately contacted the senior management of the Virtual Universe Company.
Upon learning of this, the executives of Virtual Universe Company naturally took it very seriously and immediately discussed a solution for dealing with Earth.
At this time, the Nine Sword Venerable returned to Earth.
"Luo Feng, come here for a moment," the Nine Sword Venerable summoned Luo Feng.
That day, Luo Feng and the Nine Sword Venerable talked for a long time.
In the evening, Xu Qing leaned back in her recliner, enjoying the evening breeze.
"Xiao Qing," Luo Feng flew over.
"Brother-in-law, what a rare guest! You actually came to my place on your own initiative. You wouldn't come here without a reason. Brother-in-law, is there something you need?" Xu Qing asked with a smile.
Luo Feng smiled. "As expected, I couldn't hide it from you. The secret of Earth has been uncovered."
"Oh, what exactly is the secret?" Xu Qing sat up, looking curious.
Then, Luo Feng told him what the Nine Sword Venerable had told him.
"So, we're all experimental subjects?" Xu Qing was shocked.
"Well... that's not wrong. Strictly speaking, we were indeed the experimental subjects of that Alien Race powerhouse. You and your Elder Brother brothers were very successful experimental subjects," Luo Feng nodded.
"Tsk, I was just giving an example, brother-in-law, you actually took it seriously, didn't you?" Xu Qing said unhappily.
Luo Feng laughed, then became serious again. "The higher-ups at Virtual Universe Company have already devised a plan for dealing with Earth. Control of Earth is no longer in my hands."
"What's the arrangement? They're not going to drive all the Earthling away, are they?" Xu Qing raised an eyebrow.
If the people from Virtual Universe Company dare to do that, I'll definitely find a chance to blow up the Earth and leave them nothing behind.
He'll destroy not just Earth, he'll destroy the entire Solar System.
"Virtual Universe Company gave me two options: one is to sell Earth to the company for 200 billion Hunyuan Unit."
"Secondly, I will retain my status as a lord, the land on Earth will be left to Earthling, and the seas will belong to the Virtual Universe Company. I will also receive 50 billion Hunyuan Unit," Luo Feng said softly.
"If it's the first option, then the company really wants to fire people, right? The second option is a bit more humane," Xu Qing said, wide-eyed, not expecting that the company would actually have the idea of kicking out Earthling.
Luo Feng said helplessly, "This is the result I fought for for a long time. If it weren't for my talent, the company probably wouldn't have even given me a chance."
"It's alright, we've already secured it, brother-in-law, you don't need to feel pressured. Just choose the second option. At least we Earthling have a place to stay. Who told us we weren't strong enough?" Xu Qing patted his shoulder.
"Yes, it's all because we're not strong enough. If we were strong enough, how could they dare to do this?" Luo Feng sighed.
He understood that this was for the sake of the entire human race, but he still felt somewhat uncomfortable; Earth was his home.
"It's alright, brother-in-law. Now is now, and later is later. Once we become invincible, we'll decide who owns the Earth. What contracts and agreements are just worthless pieces of paper."
"When the time comes, anyone who dares to disobey will be slapped across the face, regardless of whether they are Universe Venerable or something," Xu Qing said with a sneer.
Hearing this, Luo Feng laughed. "Indeed, might makes right. We should reason with each other when necessary, and fight with our fists when necessary. Nothing is set in stone."
"That's right. Losing it now doesn't mean we can't get it back later. Shame should motivate us to work harder, and we should turn it all into motivation for cultivation," Xu Qing clenched his fist.
Luo Feng wholeheartedly agreed; he wanted to become stronger and become the strongest being.
Over the next few days, the Nine Sword Venerable sent all the Immortal sent by the Venerable to the Giant Axe Dojo back.
Virtual Universe Company also issued a notice to Giant Axe Dojo, prohibiting them from sending any more people to Earth.
Meanwhile, the Virtual Universe Company also sent people to build Floating City on Earth and a huge Divine Hall at the edge of the Solar System, which is guarded by a super being.
"Luo Feng, now that this matter is settled, I should be leaving. Cultivate diligently; your future is bright," the Nine Sword Venerable instructed Luo Feng before departing.
On Earth, above the seas, many Floating City have been built, and countless descendants of powerful beings will be born here in the future.
The original inhabitants of the earth still live on land, undisturbed.
"Wow, as expected of Virtual Universe Company, the construction speed is amazing," Xu Qing exclaimed, looking at the Floating City.
It seems that soon many humans of high-ranking Human Race bloodlines from across the universe will arrive and begin to reproduce.
"They want bloodline, comprehension, and spiritual growth—how greedy! Trying to take a shortcut like this? It's not that simple. Just watch, you're nothing but a bunch of people here to drink the water. You won't stay on Earth for long; I'll take it back sooner or later," Xu Qing said, a mocking glint in his eyes as he looked at the Floating City.
He believed that the powerful Alien Race being had definitely considered this situation and must have a backup plan.
If someone wants to reap the rewards halfway through, it depends on whether the other party is willing. If it were Xu Qing, he wouldn't want to let others have the benefits.
The word "Earthling" is not only etched in our blood, but also in our souls.
"Xiao Qing," Luo Feng walked over and looked at the Floating City with him, his expression inscrutable.
"Brother-in-law, I don't trust Virtual Universe Company, nor do I trust any human force. The only one I trust is ourselves," Xu Qing said slowly, looking ahead.
Since the Virtual Universe Company treats them as subordinates and trains them, it doesn't matter. After all, the probability of a genius growing into a strong person is too low, so it's impossible for them to really take these so-called geniuses seriously.
The Virtual Universe Company is more powerful, so they have to do whatever you say, or they won't feed you.
However, the Virtual Universe Company cannot represent the entire Human Race, nor can it represent anyone.
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Luo Feng patted him on the shoulder, "You just need to do what you think is right."
He knew that Xu Qing also cared a lot about Earth. Although Virtual Universe Company's actions had a righteous cause, they damaged Xu Qing's trust in Virtual Universe Company.
People with high aspirations like Xu Qing, Hong, and Thor can never change their minds once they've made a decision.
In fact, Luo Feng was the same way; in fact, he was the most obsessive one.
"Yeah, so I'm going to bleed the company dry, become invincible, and slap anyone who doesn't like me twice," Xu Qing said viciously.
"Haha, that's good," Luo Feng laughed.
After a pause, Luo Feng seemed to remember something. "Xiao Qing, have you ever thought about cultivating plant life?"
"Cultivating plant life? No, raising these things is too much trouble," Xu Qing shook his head. He already had such a powerful Clone, he didn't need any plant life at all.
"Brother-in-law, why are you suddenly asking me this question?" Xu Qing asked curiously.
"Do you remember that Pan Xi? He had two kinds of ninth-level World Lord plant life forms. Do you know how he cultivated them?" Luo Feng asked.
Xu Qing asked in surprise, "Brother-in-law, what did you discover?"
"I found Locke Divine Water in one of his World Ring, a treasure with excellent effects on cultivating plant life, an entire lake," Luo Feng laughed.
"So that's how it is. No wonder that guy had two kinds of ninth-level World Lord plant life forms," Xu Qing understood. It was all because of those Locke Divine Water.
"Brother-in-law, this is perfect for helping you cultivate the Mo Yun Vine," Xu Qing said with a smile.
Luo Feng nodded. "Yes, there's plenty of Locke Divine Water, so I'm asking if you'd like to cultivate plant life."
"I don't play with plant life forms. I have Clone, so I'm not lacking in combat power at all. Besides, I have the Dragon God Armor, which is enough to protect my life," Xu Qing shook his head.
"Hmm," Luo Feng also knew that Xu Qing had obtained the Dragon God Armor in the Dragon Tower on Dragon Tower Planet, which was very powerful.
He tried again later, but unfortunately he still couldn't sneak in, since he hadn't mastered teleportation.
Moreover, Xu Qing only entered the first level, and he only had one set of Dragon God Armor, which was placed there as a reward. He couldn't enter the second level either.
Otherwise, Luo Feng would definitely ask Xu Qing to get him a set of Dragon God Armor; it's too practical.
It can block all attacks from Marquis Level Immortal, including Soul Attack. Such armor is truly powerful and rare, even King Level Immortal would covet it.
