That night, Li Jiaxuan was picked up by his family.
He heard that when his father came to the Martial Arts Department of Haicheng City to pick him up, he was holding an iron rod.
As for what Li Jiaxuan experienced later, Lin Mo had no idea. However, the nearby scavengers picked up an iron rod that had been broken into several pieces by the road.
… .
Jingdu City.
The night was dark.
Outside the door of Xia country’s Martial Arts Administration, a “Dazzling Sun Martial Artist” arrived.
Every Radiant solar martial artists had the inhuman strength to move mountains and fill seas. Even if an atomic bomb was thrown at them, they would be able to escape from the center of the nuclear explosion in time and survive.
It could be said that… it was very difficult for a “quasi-first-level civilization” like the Blue Planet to have any technological strength to kill a Radiant solar martial artists.
However, in the Xia country’s Martial Arts Administration, Radiant Solar Martial Artists were not rare. The guards stationed here by the “Grandmaster Hall” were all Radiant Solar Martial Artists. Moreover, many of the management levels of the headquarters were also Radiant Solar Martial Artists.
However, the person standing at the door was slightly special.
His name was Zhang Hui, a free martial artist from Xia country.
He was special because he had just carried out an S-rank mission not long ago. And this S-rank mission was actually delivering a package to a third-year high school student.
Zhang Hui was not stupid. He only needed to think with his toes to know that this high school student called “Lin Mo” was definitely the one who caused an uproar in the Primordial Universe… Black Earth!
“Zhang Hui, stop!” The guard at the entrance of the headquarters clearly recognized Zhang Hui. “What can I do for you?”
“I want to see Elder Zijin!” Zhang Hui revealed his intentions. “I have important news that I must tell Elder Zijin myself.”
Zhang Hui had actually been struggling and hesitating for a long time.
Of course he understood the risks of revealing an S-rank mission.
But he also knew how important information about Black Earth was to Xia country!
After all… Black Earth’s talent was too heaven-defying! If other countries found out about Black Earth’s identity first, they might use all means to assassinate him!
Just like last time, even the seventh-rank illusionist, Mrs. Tengyuan, personally took action! She was simply shameless!
“S-level confidentiality regulations…” As he waited, Zhang Hui couldn’t help but think of the confidentiality agreement he had signed with the “Primordial Universe Xia Country Headquarters”. He suddenly felt a trace of fear.
However, he still comforted himself. “It’s fine! I won’t directly point out the exact situation of ‘Black Earth’. At most, I’ll hint at Elder Jin a little… Moreover, I’m a Radiant solar martial artist after all. Even if I’m discovered to have leaked the secret, I’ll at most be punished slightly. What can they do to me?”
Zhang Hui thought to himself, “I’m not even afraid of an atomic bomb, why would I be afraid of punishment? No matter how insane the “Primordial Universe’s Xia Nation Headquarters” is, it’s impossible for them to throw a hydrogen bomb at me, right?”
I, Zhang Hui, am fearless!
Soon, Elder Zijin walked out.
It was almost impossible for ordinary people to meet Elder Zijin. However, Zhang Hui was a Radiant solar martial artist after all, and he asked to see her late at night, saying that he had important news. Therefore, Elder Zijin immediately stopped cultivating and came to the entrance of the headquarters.
“Zhang Hui, why are you looking for me?” Elder Zijin asked directly.
“Elder Zijin, it’s like this—” Zhang Hui deliberated for a moment and lowered his voice to ensure that only the two of them could hear. “A few days ago I sent…”
Zhang Hui wanted to say, “A few days ago I sent a package to Haicheng,” so Elder Zijin could naturally read the hint. However, just as he said the word “sent”, he instantly lost his breath.
Bang!
His burly body fell to the ground with a bang, kicking up a cloud of dust.
“Huh?” Elder Zijin’s eyes suddenly narrowed as she felt a bone-piercing chill.
A powerful Radiant Solar martial artist!
He was fine a second ago, but he suddenly died in front of her without any warning! Even if a seventh-rank illusionist or even an eighth-rank illusionist attacked, this was impossible!
“What’s going on? What happened to Zhang Hui?” The Radiant solar guard at the entrance was even more shocked.
“It should be the karmic weapon of the Primordial Universe Controller!” Elder Zijin quickly thought of something. “Zhang Hui probably knows some important secret and wants to reveal it to me. It’s just that… he doesn’t understand how terrifying the karmic weapon is!”
Perhaps only the Martial Dao masters in the Grandmaster Hall could understand how terrifying the methods of the Primordial Universe’s controller were!
Moreover, the stronger one was, the more unfathomable the power of the Primordial Universe Controller!
In fact… even the entire Blue Planet civilization was nothing in front of the Primordial Universe Ruler! He could destroy civilization with a flip of his hand.
“Zhang Hui probably signed a confidentiality agreement with the headquarters of the Primordial Universe’s Xia country!” Elder Zijin said in a low voice. “After signing the confidentiality agreement, he still tried to leak it… He was looking for death!”
Elder Zijin was not in a good mood.
Zhang Hui’s ignorance directly caused Xia country to lose a Radiant Solar Martial Artist expert!
Moreover, Elder Zijin was also very curious… What secret could make Zhang Hui take such a risk to reveal to her?
“Elder Zijin?” The guard at the door suggested. “Should we investigate what Zhang Hui did recently?”
“If you want to die, go and investigate! But if you really find anything, don’t tell me. I haven’t lived long enough!” Elder Zijin rolled her eyes and said, “Besides… do you think you can find out what the Primordial Universe’s Xia Nation Headquarters wants to keep secret?”
With that, Elder Zijin walked straight into the headquarters. She even said, “The only thing you can do now is to help Zhang Hui arrange his funeral!”
If he was killed by the “Karmic Law” of the Primordial Universe Ruler, his death would be in vain!
But at this moment, Elder Zijin suddenly received a voice transmission. “Disciple, come and see me!”
“Master?” Elder Zijin heard this voice that seemed to ring in her ears and instantly soared into the sky. With a flash, she disappeared into the night.
… .
Jingdu City.
In an inconspicuous house.
The usually arrogant Elder Zijin was currently standing respectfully beside an ordinary old man.
“Zijin!” The old man’s expression was solemn. “The Primordial Universe Controller just sent me a voice transmission!”
Elder Zijin listened attentively, her heart filled with respect.
In the entire Blue Planet, only three people… were qualified to be personally contacted by the “Primordial Universe Master”.
The ordinary old man in front of him was one of the “three”. The other two were in the White Eagle Federation and the Great Bear Kingdom.
Apart from the Primordial Universe Controller, these three were the strongest people on the Blue Planet!
“Master received a voice transmission. Could it be because of Zhang Hui?” Elder Zijin thought for a moment and felt that it was impossible. Zhang Hui was only an ordinary Radiant Solar martial artist. How could he be qualified to enter the sights of the Primordial Universe’s controller?
At this moment, the old man continued, “It should be a great thing! Especially for our Xia country!”
“Great news?” Elder Zijin couldn’t help but look forward to it.
“The controller said that he has discovered an extremely talented genius in our Xia country! He might be able to meet his requirements and inherit his legacy!” The old man smiled and said, “He also said that he wants to personally nurture him!”
Elder Zijin immediately had a guess. “It’s… Black Earth?”
“It’s definitely him!” The old man sipped his tea and nodded. “Black Earth is the only ‘unique’ genius in our Xia country in all these years! At the same time, he’s also the most talented genius in combat technique on the entire Blue Planet!! I’m afraid… only such a rare genius can obtain the inheritance of the controller!”
“No wonder the Martial Arts Administration can’t find out Black Earth’s true identity!” Elder Zijin said, “They clearly know that Black Earth is in Jiangnan Prefecture, but after screening all the martial arts high school students in the entire Jiangnan Prefecture several times, they still didn’t find anything suspicious!”
“We naturally can’t find out what the controller doesn’t want us to find!” the old man said calmly. “I estimate that Black Earth has already been brought to the controller’s side to be nurtured, so it’s even more impossible to find out! But no matter what… the controller chose the genius of our Xia country. That’s the best news!”
“Whichever country can finally obtain the inheritance of the controller will be able to dominate the entire Blue Planet in one fell swoop! It’s precisely because of this that those jealous small countries will use all means to assassinate Black Earth. Even a seventh-rank illusionist has personally taken action!” Elder Zijin said hatefully, “Even if those small countries can’t obtain the inheritance, they don’t want our Xia country to!”
“It’s all right now!” the old man said. “Black Earth has been chosen by the controller and taken away! A small country like Cherry Blossom can’t cause any more waves!”
“Yes!” Elder Zijin said expectantly, “Then is the crisis of annihilation on our Blue Planet resolved?”
“That… might not be confirmed!” The old man’s expression became solemn again. “I’m afraid the controller’s lifespan is almost gone! If Black Earth can’t meet the requirements of the ‘inheritor’ before his time is up, then with the controller’s temper, he’ll probably still destroy the Blue Planet civilization! In that case… the Blue Planet will still have to return to the Stone Age!”
“Therefore—” The old man continued, “In addition to looking forward to ‘Black Earth’ soaring into the sky, we still have to continue to increase our efforts and nurture the geniuses in the martial arts university at all costs!”
“I understand!” Elder Zijin nodded solemnly.
And yet…
Whether it was the hall master of the Grandmaster Hall or Elder Zijin, neither of them knew that they had actually guessed wrong. Although the genius chosen by the Primordial Universe Master was from Xia country, he was not “Black Earth”.
