Instead of advising Lin Hao to keep a low profile, it would be better for him to grow into a Universe Venerable or even the Lord of the Universe as soon as possible!
That way, no one will be able to bully their men anymore, and they won't need anyone to shield them from the wind and rain.
Unfortunately, Lin Hao, that scumbag, didn't think that way—
He's still too inexperienced; even having a bunch of girlfriends who are at the highest level of the game and invincible makes him feel insecure!
When will they be able to integrate the complete laws of space or time on their own?
No, I need to find a new gigolo right away!
It's urgent!
……
Virtual universe, Thunder Island.
Lin Hao had just returned to the castle in Yangzhou City and hadn't even had a chance to party with his sisters when he was summoned by the Lord of Chaos City.
"...The founder of the Giant Axe is already on his way back. The Nightmare Candle King acted recklessly and arrogantly this time. Upon learning of this, the Giant Axe was furious and personally ordered him to go to the 'Desolate Prison Secret Realm' to guard the frontier for ten thousand epochs! During this period, he is not allowed to leave, nor is he allowed to receive any resources or assistance from his father! Whether he can survive these ten thousand epochs depends on his own fate!"
The Chaos City Lord's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority. "As for Shi Huo himself, as a father, he failed to properly educate his son, and as a Venerable, he interfered in the affairs of the younger generation and bullied the weak. He has been ordered by the Giant Axe to give up the equivalent of 30% of his wealth. Half of it will be used to supplement the clan's public resource pool, and the other half... will be directly allocated to you, as a way to... well, to calm your nerves."
Lin Hao blinked, surprised that such a good thing had happened.
Leaving aside the replenishment of the community's public resource pool, the portion allocated to him is a real, substantial sum!
Having entrenched himself for many years, Venerable Fiery Erosion must possess astonishing wealth. Even half of his thirty percent fortune would be enough to arm his harem.
More importantly, the Nightmare Candle King was exiled to the frontier for ten thousand years, a punishment far more severe than simple imprisonment!
The Lord of Chaos City continued to explain to Lin Hao, "I also bear responsibility for this farce. There must be a secret behind the fact that 'Earth' was able to produce geniuses like you and Luo Feng. When I discovered that you had used rather clumsy methods to try your best to cover up the existence of 'Earth,' I understood your intentions. However, at the time, I only strictly ordered the senior management of the Virtual Universe Company not to inquire about any news about 'Earth.'"
I was thinking that we would discuss this issue when you grow up, become capable of standing on your own, or even stand by your teacher's side.
This time, something went wrong. The news that 'Earth' holds a secret, comparable to a supreme treasure, has spread like wildfire throughout the immortal ranks of humanity...
What I never expected was that Shi Huo and his ilk, blinded by greed, actually tried to preemptively buy Earth from Luo Feng before we, the higher-ups of our race, had even made a decision..."
Actually, he already knew about Lin Hao's email as soon as it was sent, but since Shi Huo was from the Giant Axe Arena, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to bully the weak.
He had originally intended to ask Venerable Guiyi to make a trip, but after learning that Qianwu would take action, he decided against it.
After explaining, the Lord of Chaos City paused, "The reason I called you here today is because both Giant Axe and I want to ask for your thoughts."
"Huh? My thoughts..."
Lin Hao never expected that the strongest being of the human race, the creator of the giant axe, would take the initiative to care about his thoughts.
This is not what he imagined. Shouldn't it just be a matter of giving face to him, treating Earthlings better, and offering Luo Feng a higher price?
Should I try to find another way to throw a tantrum and argue with the teacher?
Why does the art style suddenly look so strange...?
Little did he know that the Lord of Chaos City had always valued his talent and strategic position, so even though the Giant Axe Founder hadn't been in the Primal Universe before, he already knew about Lin Hao.
I also agree with the decision made by the Lord of Chaos City at the time, not to mention that, given the level of access Lin Hao had at the time, the internal ban of the Virtual Universe Company was sufficient.
There's no need to publicize the ban on Lin Hao and his home planet 'Earth' to the entire human race; that would only arouse the curiosity of those with ulterior motives.
The Lord of Chaos City originally intended to wait for him to grow up in peace, but he didn't expect that this kid would insist on going to the outer battlefield to cause trouble.
The promised surprise didn't materialize, and the Chaos City Lord's worst fears came true...
This kid really did hook up with the Zerg Queen, and three of them at once...
There were also some pleasant surprises. Not only did the four of them, including Longyu, have their spatial laws nearing perfection after following Lin Hao, but this kid also brought back the time law from the extraterrestrial battlefield!
The Chaos City Lord told Lin Hao that he didn't know what went wrong, but based on Lin Hao's experience in the extraterrestrial battlefield, it was clear that this was the work of the Zerg.
He certainly wouldn't do what the Zerg Queen wanted and kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.
"That's right. Are you willing to believe that your teacher can balance the interests of our race with the interests of the Earth?"
The Lord of Chaos City said, "There's no smoke without fire. The secrets of Earth can no longer be kept hidden. How much do you know about Earth? Can you tell your master?"
“I don’t mean anything by this. If Earth is indeed of great importance, then with your current strength, you certainly cannot protect your homeland. Even if we can strictly order our race not to interfere with Earth, what about the other races?”
“If you trust your teacher and your community, the founder of the giant axe and I will take the problem of ‘Earth’ seriously.”
"Sure, you can handle it as you see fit. You and the founder of the giant axe will find out what secrets Earth holds later."
"I have only two requests."
Lin Hao said seriously, "First, Earth may possess 'special effects.' The rules for opening up the system can refer to the initial universe. The core terms, such as the specific number of openings, scope, duration, and fee standards, must be formulated with the participation and joint signature of Earthling representatives! No one may bypass Earthlings to forcibly set quotas!"
"second,"
His voice was filled with stubbornness, “Anyone—regardless of status or strength—is prohibited from engaging in any form of fighting, oppression, or bribery against Earthlings or anyone residing here within the Earth's borders! Violators will be apprehended on the spot by the virtual universe system in conjunction with the future Earth Guardians, depending on the severity of the offense! Those with egregious offenses will be severely punished! Earthlings have the right to legally defend themselves and expel any illegal acts that threaten the peace of the Earth's environment or the safety of their lives and property!”
The Chaos City Lord nodded: "That makes perfect sense. Earth's special characteristics do indeed warrant the treatment and protection of a 'holy land' level. Rest assured, I will personally discuss these terms with the Giant Axe and write them into the highest agreement, and simultaneously enter them into the core legal system of the virtual universe, so that all members of the race and the five major forces are aware of them! The Earth representative's right to participate and the Earth Guard's authority that you proposed will also be implemented."
This commitment carries immense weight, essentially guaranteeing the independence and dignity of Earthlings and the planet itself.
Lin Hao shrugged. "That's all for now. I haven't thought of anything else yet. To avoid putting you in a difficult position at the clan meeting, I will be going to the outer battlefield again soon. Once Ai Chen arrives in Chaos City, I'll have her wait for me in the Chaos Ruins. You can get ready, Master."
"What kind of person do you take your teacher for! I only agreed to your nonsense as a precaution, but now you'd better stay obediently within the clan. You're not allowed to go anywhere until you break through to immortality!"
The Lord of Chaos City grew anxious and stopped referring to himself as a master. "I will grant your two requests on behalf of Giant Axe. When Giant Axe returns, let him go to Earth and take a look. There's no other meaning behind this. The main point is that the importance of Earth determines the level of protection we should take for it."
"It's not like you can stop me... If I really wanted to go, I could appear on the extraterritorial battlefield right now..."
Lin Hao muttered something under his breath.
"you!"
The Chaos City Lord was also furious. "Don't be so arrogant and ignorant just because you have such amazing spatial talent. I did agree to your request back then, but now the more I think about it, the more inappropriate it seems. You're just a minor World Lord. Do you even know what the strongest in the universe is? Don't even mention the strongest in the universe, even the Lord of the Universe is not someone you can challenge."
"Unless the enemy is an idiot and lets you bring them to the Chaos Ruins, they can easily kill you with a flick of their finger, interrupting your spellcasting; the best-case scenario is that your corpse returns safely..."
"What's the big deal? If I really die, you can just resurrect me. Besides, I might not even die. I'll at least become a universe master or the strongest in the universe."
Lin Hao had nothing to say about it.
"What if it's through methods like soul annihilation? You can't even resurrect them then!"
The Lord of Chaos City said earnestly, "Although we are poor, we are not so poor that we have to sell you to buy the strongest person in the universe!"
"Oh, don't worry, you just need to be prepared for a fight. I have a lot more to consider..."
In the end, Lin Hao was thrown out by the Lord of Chaos City. He simply couldn't hold back anymore; that brat was too infuriating.
……
'I didn't expect the Chaos City Lord and Giant Axe to value me so much. Well, it's time for Hong and Thor to venture into the Illusionary Sea and reveal their true talents.'
Lin Hao exhaled a breath of stale air.
Hong and Thor's talent lies in their willpower.
In order to hide Earth, we wronged them by preventing them from revealing their talents, which was actually unfair to them.
Although we still don't know what went wrong, at least we don't have to keep putting them through this.
Earth is indeed very important; if we were to say that Earth is comparable to the pinnacle of treasures in a realm.
Then he himself is at least a supreme treasure in the domain!
It's just that the Lord of Chaos City is too embarrassed to let himself act freely because of human ethics and morality.
After making his decision, Lin Hao entered the virtual universe and sent messages to Hong, Thor, and Luo Feng.
Soon, everyone responded and they gathered at Jiuxing Bay.
"I've called you here today because there are some things I'd like to discuss with you."
Before Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen met Lin Hao, Luo Feng had already guessed something and briefly told them that a Venerable One wanted to buy Earth from him.
The group looked serious and listened attentively.
"Don't be too nervous, it's a good thing."
Seeing that the others suddenly tensed up, Lin Hao smiled and waved his hand.
"You can now venture into the Illusionary Sea and showcase your talents!"
Lin Hao looked at the three of them and said.
"On Earth?"
Hong pondered for a moment, then asked.
"Times have changed. With my current strength and status, even if the special nature of Earth is exposed, it doesn't matter. I can cover it up."
Lin Hao said it directly.
"it is good!"
Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng exchanged a glance and smiled.
……
The plane of fantasy sea.
Rumble~~~
The black sea roared, and the waves, tens of meters high, crashed against the cliff edge time and time again.
Lin Hao, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen stood on the cliff, gazing at the endless sea of illusion.
"Besides talent, comprehension, and hard work, and external resources such as secret techniques, the most important quality of a strong person is a powerful will!"
"The Sea of Illusions is a place that tests one's consciousness and will."
"Go forth and explore! Show your true talents!"
Lin Hao spoke up.
Only by showcasing talent can one gain more attention and receive more training!
This is the core law of the universe.
Pretending to be weak to fool others won't work in this world.
"Then let's give it a try!"
Thor's eyes were filled with fighting spirit; in terms of mental state, he had already reached an extremely high level.
