Chapter 165: Chapter 160: Invasion of 3 Clans
"What!?"
Wang Xu’s face changed dramatically, exclaiming.
"That’s right, your homeland, Earth, that planet already has a Star Lord." Yin Gu said.
"Not only that, but there are three Star Lords on Earth, all from the cosmic factions of the Fallen Dragon Star Domain."
"Yao Huo Tribe, Huo Shen."
"Giant Eye Race, Fa Guo."
"Thunder Demon Race, Tong Peng."
Yin Gu’s face was solemn. Earth being occupied by these three factions clearly indicated it had been invaded, and the situation was likely not optimistic.
Buzz~
However, Wang Xu felt as if the blood in his brain was reversing, an unprecedented fury rising from the depths of his heart. No matter how resolute his mind was, he couldn’t bear the reality he had to face at this moment.
Earth has been invaded by cosmic factions, and it’s not just one but three... What will become of Earth? What disasters will his family face?
Whoosh!
Wang Xu’s face turned icy, his eyes filled with indescribable hatred and anger. The shadow of a blue sword without a blade suddenly appeared beneath his feet, turning Wang Xu into a stream of blue light that shot into the sky.
"Whoever it is, if they bring any disaster to Earth, even if I have to chase them to the edge of the universe and time dries up, I’ll kill them!" Wang Xu roared in his heart. Earth is Wang Xu’s reverse scale, the last line. Crossing it even a bit would make Wang Xu go berserk.
At this moment, Wang Xu could no longer stay calm. He wished to return to Earth immediately, already imagining what Earth had become in his mind. The more he fantasized, the more fear crept into his heart.
"Wang Xu, the War Department has a Space-Time Teleportation Platform. You can use it to jump to the Fallen Dragon Star Domain, and then follow the methods here to reach your homeland."
"Moreover, I have already had the names of those three factions erased from the records. The current lord of Earth is you."
Yin Gu’s voice mixed with a white light piercing through the air. Wang Xu reached out and grabbed it. It was a guiding star map, with all the routes clearly marked—what stars had Space-Time Teleportation Platforms, and where you could jump to, all clearly annotated.
"Thank you, Marshal Yin Gu." Wang Xu left a voice of gratitude, then left with a roar without turning back.
......
Earth, First Safe Zone, top floor of the tallest skyscraper.
In a spacious luxury room, a deep red round table was set up. Three cosmic martial artists gathered around the table.
One person’s hair and skin were both red, swaying automatically like flames without wind, his skin cracked, emitting heat waves, and whenever he opened his mouth, sparks splattered out.
Another person had no mouth, nose, or ears, only one giant eye, which was deep and seemed to draw people in.
The third was brawny, three meters tall, even while sitting was much taller than the other two, his body incandescent with lightning, his voice booming like thunder.
These three were none other than the leaders of the Yao Huo Tribe, Giant Eye Race, and Thunder Demon Race cosmic factions.
"Huo Shen, don’t overstep your bounds. It’s true your Yao Huo Tribe is strong, but this star was discovered first by my Thunder Demon Race. Given you a third is the limit, if you push my tribe any further, don’t blame me for taking action." The brawny Thunder Demon Race leader, Tong Peng, said.
This star was first discovered by the Thunder Demon Race.
A Black Hole Level cosmic martial artist of the Thunder Demon Race made a mistake in a Space-Time Teleportation, leading to a shift in jump position and arriving here, catching sight of this star at once.
He explored this star, discovered Earth’s six forbidden areas, and was full of curiosity, yet couldn’t enter any of them.
At the same time, he realized that the strongest being on this star was merely a Void Level martial artist, and a pseudo-void level without actual void power.
Evidently, this star had no Black Hole Level being, no Star Lord.
This caused the Thunder Demon Race cosmic martial artist great joy; they wanted to claim this star for themselves.
However, at this time, another group of cosmic martial artists arrived.
They were from the Yao Huo Tribe.
While passing by, they happened to discover this star and, like the Thunder Demon Race, were full of curiosity and greed, wanting to claim this star for themselves.
To claim ownership of this star, a great war broke out between the two sides. The Thunder Demon Race’s lone member couldn’t contend with the Yao Huo Tribe and immediately reported this matter to his tribe. Upon hearing of the unclaimed life star, the Thunder Demon Race dispatched strong members to seize it at all costs.
The Yao Huo Tribe, realizing the situation was escalating and that Thunder Demon Race reinforcements were on their way, reported the matter to their higher-ups as well, detailing everything about Earth.
Both Yao Huo and Thunder Demon tribes were interested in this unclaimed life star, continuing to wage war to claim ownership.
However, at this moment, one of Earth’s forbidden areas opened, and a Yao Huo Tribe member sneaked in, shouting with surprise: "It’s an Ancient Ruins! A genuine Ancient Ruins!"
This news caused both factions to lose their composure.
Ancient Ruins, existing either in the cosmos’ forbidden areas or hidden stars, rarely found, mostly occupied by cosmos powers. Entering such places was astronomically challenging for these factions.
Rumor had it Ancient Ruins contained ancient inheritances and astounding treasures, each of which was immensely beneficial, having elevated countless factions to prominence.
The high-level members of both Yao Huo and Thunder Demon Tribes were shaken. The existence of Ancient Ruins meant a change of destiny for a cosmic faction, and if they didn’t seize the opportunity now, there might never be another chance!
Instantly, the leaders of Yao Huo and Thunder Demon tribes, along with their powerful members, crossed the Star Domain, heading towards it.
But the Ancient Ruins had already closed, requiring waiting for the next opening. Both sides calmed down, ceased fighting, and simply made peace, signing a contract to share Earth.
But at the critical moment, the Giant Eye Race somehow heard about the ancient ruins and brought their strong fighters in full force.
Thus, Earth was once again divided into three, with each tribe occupying two major forbidden zones, and the matter came to an end just like that.
Throughout the process, Earth was completely ignored by them. In their eyes, this star, without even a Black Hole Level, was just a soft target that they could squeeze at will.
Indeed, that was the case.
The strong fighters of the Yao Fire, Thunder Demon, and Giant Eye tribes stood in the sky and spoke directly.
"From now on, this star belongs to our three tribes. I can give you natives some living space, but you must become the slaves of our three tribes. Dare to resist, and you’ll be killed!"
Luo, the square-faced man, and a group of Void Level from Earth, upon seeing the countless Cosmic Martial Artists in the sky emitting an intimidating aura, turned as pale as paper, with no trace of blood on their faces.
They did not know who these Cosmic Martial Artists were or how they discovered Earth, but they all realized one thing—
Humans were finished.
Soon, humanity’s nightmare began.
The three tribes started an indiscriminate slaughter to clear out humans, merely to reduce the native population and gain more activity space.
The massacre lasted only one day, but in that time, out of seven hundred million humans across ten Safe Zones, five hundred million completely disappeared.
Five hundred million lives, not knowing why they died, all innocently perished at the hands of these invaders.
The remaining humans were expelled, regardless of status or strength, driven into the slums. Without the permission of the three tribes, they were not allowed to step into the city.
The status of humans fell to the bottom, even worse than during the time of insect plagues.
Today’s Earth has totally changed.
In the ten Safe Zones, advanced technological buildings, developed energy systems, cutting-edge technological equipment... the arrival of the three tribes brought advanced civilization to Earth, but the owners of this civilization are not humans.
............
The slums were located on the outskirts of the Safe Zone, with only a small area, yet crowded with numerous mud and stone houses.
Inside one of the dilapidated mud and stone houses, in a space less than thirty square meters, over a dozen people were squeezed in.
"Mom, the medicine is ready." A gentle voice came, and a woman with a face full of dirt, dressed in coarse clothes, walked into the room, holding a bowl of medicinal soup.
"Yan’Er, don’t worry about me anymore, wasting even a small amount of Cosmic Shattered Crystal on my old bones, I can’t bear it!" The woman lying on the bed, with white hair, a haggard face, and tears streaming down, said tremblingly.
"Mom, don’t say silly things, hurry and drink the medicine." The woman forced a smile, holding the bowl to the woman’s lips, gently blowing to cool it, and feeding her.
The woman couldn’t refuse and had to drink the bowl of medicine while holding back tears.
"Mom, you’ve finished the medicine, have a good rest." The woman gently tucked the woman in and walked out of the room.
"Sigh... When will these days end?" A helpless voice came, followed by several long sighs.
Looking toward the voice, it was a solemn-looking middle-aged man speaking, his demeanor different from ordinary people, clearly someone accustomed to being in a superior position.
However, this person of upper rank had now fallen to this state.
Several people sat around him, faces full of worry.
"Dad, don’t worry, this is beyond comprehension." The woman said.
"Yan’Er." An old man with white hair spoke, tears glistening in his eyes, "These years, you’ve suffered."
The woman smiled tightly and shook her head, "Dad, I haven’t suffered, you’re the ones who have."
The room fell silent once again.
Two years ago, when the three tribes invaded, humanity fell. They were lucky to survive but could only live here, surviving one day at a time.
"In-law, when do you think Wang Xu will come back? Earth is already like this. If he doesn’t come back soon, humanity might be completely annihilated." The middle-aged man said.
At the mention of "Wang Xu," a glimmer of light appeared in the old man’s eyes, which soon dimmed, "Xu’Er has been gone for almost four years. He is surely somewhere in the cosmos, becoming an admired figure... In-law, don’t worry, Xu’Er will certainly return, he promised us."
"Return..." The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "I’m afraid by the time he comes back, we’ll all be dead."
"I believe in my brother, he will definitely come to save us!" A determined-looking young man spoke.
"Dad, Wang Xu will come back." The woman’s eyes were red, but there was a trace of determination, "I believe him, he said he would come back, and he definitely will."
"Even if he comes back, I’m afraid he’s no match for those invaders." The middle-aged man said helplessly.
There were several heavy sighs in the room.
"Master!" Suddenly, an anxious voice came, and the door of the room was pushed open as a burly Void Level Martial Artist rushed in.
"Qiu Tuyi, what’s wrong?" The woman asked.
"It’s those guys from the Giant Eye Race, they’re here to catch people again!" Qiu Tuyi said anxiously.
At this, all the color drained from everyone’s faces, leaving them ashen. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on Qidian (). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on .)
