Chapter 9

Xu San saw Lu Yin stand up, thinking he was about to attack him. In the end times, human life was as insignificant as grass, and he had no doubt that he would be killed to vent anger. He hurriedly said, "Sir, I can help you with many things, please don’t kill me."

Lu Yin walked out of the restaurant without acknowledging him.

As Lu Yin passed by Xu San, the evolved human's fear reached its peak, truly believing he would be killed. He had seen too many powerful figures slaughter others, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Sir, I have special abilities, I can help you."

Lu Yin suddenly stopped and looked at him in surprise, "What did you say? Special abilities?"

Xu San's face was pale, and he said in a low voice, "I, my eyes can see very far, much farther than ordinary people. That's why I could steal a lot of good things."

Lu Yin was amazed, squatted down, and stared at Xu San's eyes, noticing that his pupils were faintly dispersed. "Double pupils?" Lu Yin was really surprised. This was a natural talent, one that only a few among countless cultivators in the universe could possess.

"Does anyone else know about your special ability?" Lu Yin asked, frowning.

Xu San shook his head and said in a low voice, "I don’t want people to think I’m a monster, so I didn’t tell anyone. You are the first."

Lu Yin’s lips curled up, "Name."

"Xu San."

"Good, Xu San, from today on, you will follow me. I will take you to the penal camp," Lu Yin said calmly.

Xu San, still fearful, looked up, "Are you going to dissect me?"

Lu Yin laughed, "I won’t, but others might. So your special ability must not be exposed, understand?"

Xu San nodded in confusion.

Without stepping into the stars, one could never understand the importance of natural talents. The Galactic Youth Council was willing to directly accept those with natural talents, which was something countless people could only dream of achieving. For Lu Yin, Xu San was a treasure, definitely useful in the future, and even if sold, he would be worth a lot of money.

Xu San was a local, and under his guidance, Lu Yin spent a few days exploring Jinling, including the once-destroyed weapon depot, but found no clues about what he was looking for.

"Boss, this is the second highest peak in Jinling after Zhongshan," Xu San said to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin nodded, "Look, which areas have a high concentration of troops, besides Zhongshan."

Xu San nodded and looked around, his pupils dispersing and becoming brighter.

After a while, Xu San smiled bitterly, "Boss, my eyes can see farther than ordinary people, but not far enough to see the entire Jinling."

Lu Yin said calmly, "Practice more, you will improve."

Xu San was speechless and opened his eyes wide.

"Boss, look, isn’t there someone flying over there?" Xu San suddenly shouted, pointing to the eastern sky.

Lu Yin looked up, his eyes widening in surprise. Someone was indeed flying over, and it was definitely not an Earthling, but someone from the stars, just like Yasta.

The person flew very fast and descended directly over Jinling. Taking a deep breath, he roared, and a violent force pressed down, instantly sweeping over Jinling like a storm.

At the same time, an alarm sounded in Jinling, and countless people looked up, amazed at the figure standing in the sky.

Zhongshan, Feng Hong, and other battalion leaders rushed out, their faces pale as they looked up, "A Heaven-level strong person?"

Countless people stared in shock at the sky. The ability to fly was a hallmark of a Heaven-level strong person. When did Huaxia gain another Heaven-level strong person?

In the sky, Ordun looked down at Jinling, his gaze arrogant, just like Yasta, or rather, all people from the universe considered Earthlings as savages.

"Respected Heaven-level strong person, why are you attacking Jinling? This is a protected area by the Execution Saint," a voice came from Zhongshan, though it was a question, the tone was quite respectful.

Ordun sneered, "Execution Saint? Did you Earthlings name yourselves that? How dare you use such a title? Let your so-called Execution Saint come out."

Millions of people in Jinling were shocked and fearful, the unknown Heaven-level strong person brought a strong sense of hostility, he was an enemy.

Feng Hong and others looked grim. Others might not know, but they did. The person was definitely an alien, just like the one killed a few days ago, both possessing Heaven-level strength. Jinling was in trouble.

A loud shout, and Zhou Shan, carrying a three-meter giant axe, flew into the sky, facing Ordun, his expression serious, "I am the Execution Saint Zhou Shan."

Countless people cheered, Zhou Shan was the guardian of Jinling.

Ordun was cold and arrogant, "I guess you can guess my origin. I’m giving you a chance to serve me. In the future, I might take you out of Earth and into the stars."

Zhou Shan narrowed his eyes, "I don’t know your origin."

Ordun sneered, "A mere Earthling dares to play mind games with me? Yasta landed here, don’t tell me you didn’t see him. Let me tell you, my rank in the academy is much higher than his. Following me is more promising than following him."

Zhou Shan gripped his giant axe, "We are Earthlings, not savages."

Ordun’s lips curled up, "It seems you still don’t submit. I’ll show you the difference between savages and us." With that, a sword suddenly appeared and stabbed directly at Zhou Shan.

No one expected Ordun to attack so quickly, not even Zhou Shan, but Zhou Shan reacted quickly, with rich combat experience. He swung the axe handle to deflect the sword and then spun 360 degrees, slashing upward. Ordun was surprised by the quick reaction and began to take Zhou Shan more seriously. The sword clashed with the axe, and Ordun was pushed back a hundred meters, his hands numb.

The shockwave from the clash of the sword and axe cut into the ground, creating a hundred-meter-long crack, and many people were affected, fleeing in fear.

"Such strength," Ordun was surprised.

Zhou Shan wielded his giant axe and fiercely slashed at Ordun. Ordun sneered, his energy surging, and he blocked the axe with his sword.

Zhou Shan’s eyes narrowed, and he attacked again.

"Do you want to push me out of this settlement? No problem, I’ll make you submit." With that, the sword and axe clashed again, and Ordun was pushed back by the force, flying out of Jinling’s airspace.

The brief but intense battle shocked countless people. Humans could actually fight in the air, each move capable of splitting the earth. This was the power of the gods!

Feng Hong and others looked worried. The alien had landed on Earth with preparation, and they were concerned for Zhou Shan.

On another mountain, Xu San trembled, seeing the battle of Heaven-level strong persons for the first time, his eyes wide open.

Lu Yin looked outside the city, hearing the distant rumbling, his brows furrowed.

Each student who landed had a ring armor that could defend against Heaven-level attacks, giving Ordun an unbeatable advantage. He thought he would surely win, but Zhou Shan was one of the seven saints of Huaxia. These seven people had definitely inherited the legacy of the corpse on Neptune, even if the inheritance was minimal, it was not something Ordun could underestimate. The ability to stand on Neptune proved that the corpse had the power to traverse the stars, and the depth of such a person’s strength was unfathomable.

Lu Yin could look down on all Earth’s evolved humans, but he dared not underestimate the seven saints of Huaxia, who had been cultivating before the end times.

A few days ago, when Zhou Shan saw Yasta’s corpse and the spaceship, he was not too surprised. Lu Yin observed this carefully, and Ordun might not win.

Soon, a thunderous roar echoed outside Jinling, and countless energy waves shot into the sky, tearing apart the clouds, followed by a return to calm.

Soon, Zhou Shan flew into the sky, looking a bit pale but not injured. He raised his giant axe high, and the cheers of millions of survivors in Jinling followed.

"Stay here," Lu Yin instructed and then rushed out of the city.

The battle site between Zhou Shan and Ordun was not far, just over twenty kilometers outside the city.

When Lu Yin arrived, he saw a wasteland and burning skyscrapers, with clear slash marks on the ground, extending into the distance.

The zombies and mutated beasts that originally existed around had either fled or turned to dust.

Lu Yin squatted down and touched the slash marks, which still had a trace of fierce energy, the power of Zhou Shan’s combat technique. The slash that killed the mutated vines was not his full strength; this was his full strength.

Not far away, white fragments were reflecting light.

Lu Yin picked them up, his eyes narrowing. These were fragments of the ring armor, indicating that Ordun had suffered a severe defeat, even his ring armor was shattered. He was probably not dead, or Zhou Shan would have brought his body back to Jinling.

Lu Yin reassessed the strength of the seven saints of Huaxia. He did not know the strength of the top three, but Zhou Shan might have the peak strength of a realm explorer, as evidenced by his ability to shatter the ring armor.

The sound of commotion came from a distance, probably other battalion leaders arriving. Lu Yin did not want to meet them and left directly.
