Chapter 16: Talents (1)

Upon seeing Lu Yin rise from his seat, Xu San thought he was done for. Lu Yin was going to make a move on him. He had no doubt that he would be killed so Lu Yin may vent his anger.

In a flurried manner, Xu San said, “M-master, I can help you do things! I beg that you do not kill me!”

Ignoring him, Lu Yin walked out of the restaurant.

When Lu Yin passed by Xu San, the evolved men became extremely terrified, thinking that they too would be killed. Xu San had seen too many powerful warriors before, so he gritted his teeth and said, “Master, I have a special ability. I can help you!”

Lu Yin suddenly stopped and looked over his shoulder. “What did you say? Special ability?”

Xu San’s face was pale as he said in a low voice, “My… my eyes can see very far away several times farther than normal. It’s because of this special ability that I am able to steal a lot of good stuff.”

Lu Yin was surprised. He squatted down and stared into Xu San’s eyes; his pupils were slightly diverging.

“Double pupils?” He questioned in astonishment.

This was talent, a talent that only a handful of practitioners in the universe could produce.

“Does anyone else know of your special ability?”

Xu San shook his head vehemently and said in a low voice, “I don’t want people to think that I’m a monster, so I’ve kept this secret from everyone. You’re the first person I’ve said this to.

The corners of Lu Yin’s mouth curled up. “Name?”

“Xu San.”

“Alright, Xu San, from today onwards, you will follow me. I’ll bring you to the Punishment Battalion.” Lu Yin said indifferently.

Xu San looked up in fear. “You… You want to dissect me?”

Lu Yin laughed. “I won’t, but other people might, so you mustn’t reveal your special ability, understand?”
 

Xu San nodded in confusion.

“You can call me Boss.” Lu Yin smiled.

Before the humans of this earth stepped foot into the vast universe, they would never understand the importance of talent. The Universe Youth Council allowing talents to join them directly was something countless people dream of. To be able to enter, it was a complicated process. To Lu Yin, Xu San was a treasure. He would be useful in the future. Even if he sold him, he would be worth a lot of money.

Under Xu San’s lead, in a matter of days, Lu Yin had searched all over Jinling, including the destroyed weapon’s warehouse. He had no clue what he was looking for.

“Boss, this is the peak of Jinling, second only to Mount Bell,” Xu San said to Lu Yin.

“Let’s see where the military is more concentrated, of course, with the exception of Mount Bell.”

 

Xu San nodded and looked over. His pupils grew dimmer and brighter.

After a long while, Xu San forced out a smile. “Boss, although my eyes can see farther than the average man, it’s not to the extent that I’m able to see the entirety of Jinling.”

“Practice more, and you’ll improve,” Lu Yin said lightly.

Xu San was speechless as he stared wide-eyed.

“Boss, do you see a person flying over from the horizon?” Xu San suddenly shouted as he pointed to the sky in the east.

Lu Yin looked up, his eyes filled with astonishment. There really was someone flying over. This person was not an Earthling. He came from the same starry sky as him.

The unknown figure’s speed was fast, very fast. He descended directly above Jinling. Taking a long, deep breath, he roared, and a violent power pressed down. A powerful energy immediately engulfed Jinling like a violent storm.

At the same time, an alarm rang throughout Jinling. Countless people raised their heads, staring at the silhouette standing in the sky in shock.

Zhong Shan, Feng Hong, and the other captains of the battalion rushed out with pale faces as they looked at the sky.

“A Heaven Realm Expert…?”

Countless people stared at the sky in a daze. Being able to fly was a symbol of a Heaven Realm Expert. Since when did China have some many experts?

High up in the sky, Orton looked down at Jingling’s gathering place. His eyes were filled with pride, like the previous alien who Lu Yin killed in cold blood. Or perhaps everyone from the universe considered the Earthlings as mere savages.

“Esteemed Heaven Realm Expert, why did you attack Jinling? This is an area protected by the Punishment Saint!” A voice came from Mount Bell. Although it was only a question, it contained a tone of deep respect.

Orton laughed coldly. “The Punishment Saint? Is that what you natives call yourselves? The audacity! The word ‘Sage’ is something far beyond your control. Get your so-called ‘Punishment Saint’ out!”

Millions of people in Jinling were horrified. This Heaven Realm Expert who they were unfamiliar with brought with him a strong enmity. They knew he was their enemy.
