Even as Weilusi marveled inwardly, the video of Lu Qingshan and his group surrounding and attacking Demon God Meng Qi continued to play.
At the end of the video, Demon God Meng Qi was killed outright by their combined assault, while Lu Qingshan fell into a deep sleep after burning his soul.
"Damn it, that Ziqian Myriad Snake actually died?"
"What a pity! That was a powerful demonic beast almost certain to reach the Universe Level, yet it fell on an indigenous planet just like that!"
"If only we'd arrived a little sooner!"
After watching Lu Qingshan and his group kill Demon God Meng Qi, the members of the adventurer team could not help sighing.
After all, the most precious thing about a Ziqian Myriad Snake was its terrifying potential, which almost guaranteed it would reach the Universe Level.
For that very reason, even a Planetary Level Ziqian Myriad Snake was far more valuable than a Star Level Ninth Stage spirit reader!
But now that Lu Qingshan and his group had killed the Ziqian Myriad Snake, all that potential was useless!
Just then, however, the other members of the adventurer team noticed something unusual about Weilusi.
"Boss!"
Enstan looked at the regret on Weilusi's face and asked, "What's wrong? Is it because that Ziqian Myriad Snake was killed?"
Weilusi ignored Enstan and the others, instead giving a direct order to Morty, the ship's AI. "Morty, hurry and find out whether that Lu Qingshan is alive or dead!"
"Reporting to you, Master!"
After hearing Weilusi's order, the ship's AI, Morty, quickly gathered the relevant data. "After killing that Ziqian Myriad Snake, Lu Qingshan fell into a deep sleep. He has now been taken back to his own residence to recuperate, but he has yet to awaken!"
"Good, very good!"
Only after hearing the ship AI Morty's answer did a faint smile appear on Weilusi's face.
At that moment, Enstan continued asking from beside him, "Big Brother, what's going on?"
"Hahaha!"
Weilusi soon said with a laugh, "Do you fellows really think that Ziqian Myriad Snake was the most precious treasure on this inhabited planet?"
"Wasn't it?"
"Big Brother, what do you mean?"
After hearing Weilusi's words, the other members of the adventurer team voiced their confusion.
"Of course not!"
Weilusi shook his head slightly, then quickly said, "The most precious treasure on this inhabited planet should be that genius named Lu Qingshan. In my eyes, even if that Ziqian Myriad Snake were still alive, it couldn't compare to him!"
"How is that possible?"
"He's just an ordinary human. How could he compare to a Ziqian Myriad Snake with the potential to grow to the Universe Level?"
The other members of the adventurer team were all bewildered by Weilusi's explanation.
"Of course it's because Lu Qingshan has entered the Domain Realm!"
Weilusi quickly continued explaining, "You know that entering the Domain Realm is difficult, but you don't know just what a genius someone must be to comprehend a domain at the Planetary Level!"
"Let me put it this way. I once accompanied the ancestor to meet a Star Level genius from the Purple River Empire who had already entered the Domain Realm!"
"At the time, I heard the ancestor say that many Universe Level experts, himself included, had yet to enter the Domain Realm. But that Star Level genius had entered it after cultivating for just over a thousand years!"
"There are probably no more than ten such supreme geniuses in the entire Purple River Empire, and that's with experts carefully guiding them from childhood!"
"Yet Lu Qingshan is merely a Planetary Level warrior from an indigenous planet, and he has entered the Domain Realm too. Now do you understand just how terrifying he is?"
"This..."
"I never imagined the Domain Realm was so hard to attain!"
"Exactly! To think even Ancestor Kanuo hasn't entered the Domain Realm!"
After hearing Weilusi's explanation, the other members of the adventurer team could not help exclaiming in amazement.
Weilusi continued, "Once a supreme genius like Lu Qingshan appears in the universe, he is either killed out of jealousy or swiftly invited to join any number of major powers!"
"Once a genius like that joins a major power, being granted an inhabited planet or two is perfectly normal, let alone comparing him to that Ziqian Myriad Snake!"
"Boss!"
After hearing Weilusi's explanation, Enstan quickly asked from beside him, "Then what should we do now?"
"First, we get a comprehensive understanding of the data on Lu Qingshan and analyze his personality and character. Then we decide!"
Weilusi quickly gave another order to the ship's AI, Morty. "Morty, pick out all the data on this indigenous planet relating to Lu Qingshan!"
"Yes, Master!"
Upon receiving Weilusi's order, the ship's AI, Morty, quickly organized all the data it had found on Lu Qingshan and displayed it on the enormous screen at the front of the ship.
Weilusi and the other members of the adventurer team began carefully browsing the data concerning Lu Qingshan.
A moment later...
"Heavens!"
Weilusi exclaimed again, "To think Lu Qingshan is only a little over three hundred years old. He's far too young!"
"Exactly!"
Mig quickly said from beside him, "Boss, look. This planet's technology was originally even more backward. It was only through Lu Qingshan's guidance that they began developing all these communication networks, aircraft, and so on..."
"If Lu Qingshan hadn't appeared, discovering this inhabited planet probably wouldn't have been as easy for us as it was!"
"What dazzling, extraordinary talent!"
Enstan likewise could not help marveling. "If Lu Qingshan had been born on an inhabited planet that had joined cosmic civilization, like us, he probably would have risen to prominence long ago!"
While everyone was still marveling at Lu Qingshan's talent, Weilusi had already turned his attention to the analysis of Lu Qingshan's character.
"Very good!"
After browsing all of Lu Qingshan's experiences over the past three hundred-odd years, Weilusi quickly said, "Judging by this data, Lu Qingshan can definitely be considered someone who values loyalty and affection and repays kindness!"
"Exactly!"
Enstan quickly nodded beside him. "Back then, that native nicknamed Saber Demon merely taught Lu Qingshan a move or two. Who would have thought that after breaking through to the Planetary Level, Lu Qingshan would kill several Planetary Level monsters to avenge him!"
"Brothers!" Weilusi quickly turned to the other members of the adventurer team.
"Boss!"
"Big Brother!"
Noticing Weilusi's solemn gaze, the other members of the adventurer team all turned to look at him.
"We brothers have spent thousands of years adventuring together in the universe. This Xuanhuang Star is the second inhabited planet we've discovered together!"
Weilusi quickly said in earnest, "By rights, we should all decide together how to handle this inhabited planet. But this time, I still want to hand it over to the family and recommend that supreme genius Lu Qingshan to the ancestor, asking him to take Lu Qingshan as his disciple. What do you think?"
"Ancestor Kanuo?"
The other members of the adventurer team were all momentarily taken aback by Weilusi's words.
"I have no objection!"
A moment later, Enstan recovered and quickly said, "With a genius like Lu Qingshan, as long as we don't kill him outright, even if we sell him to slave traders, there's a good chance he'll become a guard for some great family in the future, or even a disciple of some important figure. When that happens, he'll definitely take revenge on us!"
"Rather than that, we might as well forge a bond of goodwill with him directly. If Lu Qingshan really becomes Ancestor Kanuo's disciple, as the people who recommended him, we'll have a connection with him in the future!"
"I have no objection either!"
"Ancestor Kanuo didn't shortchange us over the inhabited planet we discovered last time. This time, there's not only an inhabited planet but also a genius like Lu Qingshan. Ancestor Kanuo certainly won't shortchange us!"
For a time, the other members of the adventurer team all voiced their opinions.
Even the adventurer who had previously proposed selling the inhabited planet to the White Dragon Society immediately abandoned the idea after learning of Lu Qingshan's terrifying talent.
"All right, then!"
Weilusi quickly said, "I'll contact the ancestor right away!"
