Chapter 274

Earth's Three Powerhouses

Night.

Luo Feng and Xu Xin, husband and wife, were each holding a child, watching TV together.

“Hmm?” Luo Feng picked up his phone and was startled by the caller ID on the screen.

“What’s wrong?” Xu Xin asked, puzzled.

“It’s Dojo Master Hong’s call.” Luo Feng frowned in confusion. Ever since the Devouring Beast incident, Hong and Lei Shen had been in a deep slumber.

Xu Xin was also surprised: “Who would dare use Hong’s phone?”

“Hello.” Luo Feng answered the call.

“Luo Feng!” The resonant voice rang out.

“Dojo Master?” Luo Feng was greatly startled, and Xu Xin beside him also widened her eyes in surprise.

Hong was awake?

Hong, who had been in a deep slumber for two years, was awake? This was absolutely world-shaking news.

“Just woke up, Lei Shen is awake too. We just learned what happened after we fell asleep. Thank you for saving both our lives, and thank you for saving all of humanity.” Hong’s voice was filled with deep joy. “If you’re free, come to Hongning Base City.”

“Alright, I’ll head over now.” Luo Feng nodded.

“Good, Lei Shen and I are both here.” Hong chuckled.

After hanging up, Xu Xin couldn’t help but say, “Hong is alive?”

“Lei Shen too,” Luo Feng smiled. “I’m going over now, I probably won’t be back until late tonight.”

“Okay.” Xu Xin nodded repeatedly.

...

Luo Feng, stepping on his Duntiansuo, swiftly flew away from Jiangnan Base City, rushing to the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo headquarters at top speed.

...

Outside the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo headquarters, fighter jets were parked everywhere, making it very lively.

“Inspector Luo.” The headquarters guards saluted respectfully.

Luo Feng quickly entered the headquarters, and guided by internal staff, he went directly to a reception room.

Inside the reception room, only Hong and Lei Shen were present.

“Luo Feng.”

The two men, one in black and one in white, immediately stepped forward when they saw Luo Feng.

“Haha, Luo Feng, you’ve really made a name for yourself, kid.” Lei Shen laughed heartily, punching Luo Feng’s chest. “Considering you saved my life, we’ll let this matter slide, haha.”

“My second brother is thick-skinned, don’t mind him.” Hong said to Luo Feng. Lei Shen glared: “You—”

“Indeed, I’m magnanimous enough to tolerate him.” Luo Feng said seriously.

“Damn it, you two!”

Lei Shen glared in exasperation. Seeing this, Hong and Luo Feng burst into laughter.

“Sit.”

“Everyone, sit down.”

At Hong’s invitation, all three sat down. These three were the strongest powerhouses on Earth!

“Luo Feng.” Lei Shen’s playful demeanor vanished, and he said solemnly, “This time, after my elder brother and I learned what happened, we were truly terrified, fearing the extinction of humanity! Thank you.”

“Indeed, no need for many words of gratitude, it’s all in the wine.” Hong personally poured three cups of wine. “Come!”

All three picked up their wine cups.

“Cheers!”

They drank it in one gulp.

“Luo Feng.” Hong smiled, “Thank you also for dealing with those scoundrels like Atejina earlier. Otherwise, if those people had been allowed to cause trouble, who knows what kind of chaos they would have created.”

“Especially my Thunder Dojo! Hmph, Sage Nihelu also wanted to take the position of Dojo Master? Hmph, hmph, someone so shameless as to harm the families of heroes who sacrificed for humanity... such a person deserves death the most!” Lei Shen couldn’t help but curse. After waking up and learning about those matters, Lei Shen was extremely angry.

Luo Feng smiled: “Those were minor issues. After dealing with those three troublemakers, various countries and factions immediately became much more stable.”

“Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.” Hong nodded slightly. “Matters on Earth are trivial. After Lei Shen and I woke up, we discussed it and made a decision.”

“A decision?” Luo Feng looked at Hong and Lei Shen, puzzled.

What decision could these two make after waking up from a two-year slumber?

“Luo Feng.” Lei Shen said solemnly, “Both Hong and I have received knowledge inheritances from ancient civilization ruins, even capable of creating translation software. You should be able to tell that we know a lot about the universe! In the vast universe, there are too many powerful nations, and our Milky Way Galaxy is part of the Silverblue Empire!”

“Moreover, an ownerless planet like ours, once discovered, will be a nightmare!” Lei Shen’s expression was grim.

Hong nodded: “Yes, it’s a nightmare! If we’re lucky, our Earth might become the territory of a powerful individual. But more likely... almost all Earthlings would be sold as slaves, and then the entire planet would be sold to some powerful individuals.”

Luo Feng nodded slightly.

Luo Feng was very clear about these things. The classifications of identity in the universe, the existence of slavery, and so on—in short, the countless races of humanity in the universe, all mechanisms were for ‘competition,’ for ‘selecting’ the strong! The strong could attain high status and high treatment. The weak, however, were tragic.

“The Devouring Beast was formidable, but after all, there was only one, and we could resist it.” Hong’s expression was grim. “However, against the colossal forces in the universe, if they casually dispatch a star fleet, we wouldn’t even have the ability to resist.”

Lei Shen also nodded: “There’s only one thing we can do... make ourselves stronger! Only then can we protect our home!”

Luo Feng felt heavy-hearted.

He knew more than Hong and Lei Shen. In the universe, the fate of some indigenous planets was often tragic! Such things were commonplace. In the universe... occasionally, strong individuals would emerge from those indigenous planets, fighting for their own planet. Protecting their planetary race and home!

“Luo Feng, you don’t want to see Earth suffer such a fate, do you?” Hong looked at Luo Feng.

“Does that even need to be said?” Luo Feng replied.

“So, Luo Feng, from today onwards, let’s cultivate together. On Earth, in terms of martial artist talent, without boasting, it’s truly just my elder brother and me. And for mentalist talent, that’s naturally you, Luo Feng!” Lei Shen looked at Luo Feng. “The three of us are the strongest on Earth, so we must be even more united.”

Hong also looked at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng smiled, nodding slightly!

“Haha!”

“Hahaha!”

All three laughed.

Heroes appreciate heroes; they say masters are lonely! This is because after becoming invincible, there are no longer any comparable strong individuals, naturally leading to loneliness. Just like when Hong and Lei Shen were in slumber, Luo Feng was an invincible existence on Earth... truly, at that time, Luo Feng felt a sense of loneliness.

And with the awakening of Hong and Lei Shen, Luo Feng was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart.

Finally, he had companions on his path forward!

“Luo Feng, from today onwards, you are our third brother!” Hong said happily.

“Little Third, Little Third.” Lei Shen said with a mischievous grin, “I, the Emperor, am tired, bring the carriage back to the palace.”

“Little Second, aren’t you going to pour wine? I’ll reward you with money.” Luo Feng also teased Lei Shen.

...

“This path of cultivation is very difficult. Mutual assistance and frequent sparring will lead to faster progress.” Hong said.

Lei Shen also nodded.

“Their comprehension is high, but Earthlings’ genes are really quite ordinary.” Babata exclaimed. “Moreover, they don’t have a master’s inheritance! They’re purely groping in the dark! No master’s inheritance, no good genes... all they have is comprehension. I bet! They might reach Planetary Level Nine in ten or twenty years! But, breaking through from Planetary Level Nine to Stellar Level One, that’s difficult, difficult, difficult! At least fifty or sixty years.”

“Luo Feng, your origin world is already ‘Stellar Level Three,’ so your human body can continuously evolve, although it’s a bit slow due to Earthling aptitude. But it will still be much faster than theirs.” Babata said.

Luo Feng’s heart stirred: “Babata, didn’t our Yunmo Star lineage also collect martial artist cultivation manuals? Pass them on to Hong and Lei Shen.”

Without a master’s inheritance, even with talent, it’s hard to go far!

As fellow Earthlings, and among the three most outstanding individuals on Earth, Luo Feng hoped Hong and Lei Shen could keep up with his pace.

“How can that be? This is a secret transmission of my Yunmo Star lineage!” Babata immediately denied. “Transmitting secret manuals externally is a capital offense.”

“My Yunmo Star lineage is mainly mentalists.” Luo Feng smiled. “My teacher was also a mentalist, and the secret techniques he created, such as ‘Soul Imprint,’ ‘Six-pointed Star,’ ‘Tower of Void,’ etc., are all for mentalists. Those martial artist secret transmissions were probably just some secret methods my teacher collected from outside.”

“Uh... but they were still painstakingly collected by your teacher.” Babata said. “They cannot be transmitted externally. They will absolutely not be transmitted to anyone who isn’t a disciple of my Yunmo Star lineage.”

Luo Feng and Babata continuously communicated telepathically.

However, Babata just wouldn’t agree... Luo Feng finally understood that when an intelligent life form is stubborn, it’s impossible to persuade them.

“How about this, take Hong and Lei Shen as disciples of the Yunmo Star lineage?” Luo Feng asked.

“Oh?” Babata’s eyes widened, and he nodded repeatedly. “That works.”

“Uh—”

Luo Feng was a little stunned, “That was too straightforward.”

“Take them as disciples, take them as disciples. Luo Feng, quickly accept them on my behalf. These are absolutely the most excellent disciples! They can possess their own domain at the Planetary Level! I even shed tears when they ‘died’ back then, thankfully they woke up. Such geniuses, two great geniuses, would definitely be snatched up in the universe.” Babata said repeatedly. Although the master of the Yunmo Star lineage was a mentalist.

But a faction cannot consist solely of mentalists. Most of the immortal servants under the Yunmo Star master were immortal martial artists!

...

In the reception room.

“What’s so serious?” Lei Shen stared at Luo Feng, and Hong also listened carefully.

“It’s like this, I once received a secret inheritance, which includes mentalist cultivation methods and martial artist cultivation methods.” Luo Feng said solemnly. Hong and Lei Shen immediately rejoiced. Luo Feng continued, “However, our lineage absolutely forbids transmitting secret methods externally, and I cannot disobey that. So, I want to ask, are you willing to join this lineage that I cultivate in?”

“What faction?” Hong asked. “What are the conditions?”

“What sect?” Lei Shen also asked. “What are the rules?”

“Currently, this sect only has me left.” Luo Feng said.

“Damn it!” Lei Shen glared. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? If it’s just you left, I thought joining a sect meant being treated as a subordinate, as cannon fodder! A sect with just you. Join, of course, I’ll join!”

“Yes, join.” Hong also smiled. “By the way, what sect is it?”

“My lineage belongs to the Yunmo Star lineage.” Luo Feng also smiled. “Later, when you go out, don’t spread that it’s the ‘Yunmo Star lineage,’ after all, the entire Yunmo Star was destroyed by enemies. So, announcing the name is courting death.”

Lei Shen and Hong exchanged glances.

The sect’s base was destroyed?

Good news!

“That’s good news.” Lei Shen praised with a smile, “This means we have no restrictions.”

Hong also smiled.

“Bastards, two bastards. Disrespecting the master’s lineage, they should be punished!” In the intelligent space, Babata was furious and helpless.
