23: Chapter 23: This wasn't the first time the aliens had come.

"Exactly!"

"This!! How is that possible!"

Xiaoyu's face was filled with shock, and she subconsciously shook her head.

This answer was simply too incredible!

How could it possibly attract the attention of Heaven!

It wasn't just her thought; it was the thought of all the viewers in the stream.

"You think it's impossible?" Jiang Zhe gave a slight smile. "Now look at this line—"

"'The messenger of Heaven quells the intent to kill'; this sentence means: Heaven sends a child prodigy to pacify this war."

"Is the [Heaven] in these words really the [sky] as you and I understand it?"

"Is there a possibility that this [Heaven] is not [dead], but [alive]?"

Hearing this, the bullet screen in the livestream room completely vanished.

Alive?

These two words echoed in everyone's hearts.

No one spoke anymore; everyone's eyes were fixed on Jiang Zhe, a hint of hair-raising dread in their gaze.

*Hiss~*

The three teachers looked on in horror, and even the old professor thousands of miles away felt a bone-chilling cold.

For some reason!

They felt that this theory was terrifying upon closer reflection!

Why did ancient people fear Heaven?

Was it natural lightning, celestial fire, and disasters they feared?

Or...

Was it a title for some kind of extraterrestrial being in ancient times: [Heaven]!!!

Did the original 'divine right of kings' truly come from the ruling class?

Could it have come from the first to descend upon Earth...

An advanced civilization?

"Brother, if..."

Xiaoyu suddenly felt a bit cold and hurriedly hugged her bear pillow.

Heaven is alive?

The information contained in these words was too vast!

It caused her brain to stall slightly.

"Brother, if that's really the case, then where do they come from; do they really come from a [Living Heaven]?"

"Whether they come from [Heaven], look at this next line!" Jiang Zhe fixed his gaze on the third line, "'One would not believe a prodigy would emerge from Wu and Yue.'"

"Since ancient times, the lands of Wu and Yue, which is the Jiangzhe region, have produced many prodigies—"

"Liu Bang, Han Xin, Professor Wang Shouren, and so on."

"And this prophetic line tells us straightforwardly—"

"The person capable of resolving this global doomsday war is not a [human] as we understand it at all!"

Then, Jiang Zhe's knuckles rapped heavily on the picture of the Three-Foot Child.

"You only need to look at this Three-Foot Child; it is definitely not a kid, and certainly not some dwarf."

"How could a one-meter-tall child possibly make great nations stop their wars and lay down their weapons?"

"Has another figure of the ages appeared?"

As his forceful question fell, Xiaoyu shook her head resolutely.

A figure of the ages is too rare!

In five thousand years of history, fewer than a handful of such figures have emerged!

A figure of the ages must have a significant positive impact on Huaxia civilization!

Even the likes of Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Gaozu of Han, or Emperor Taizong of Tang don't quite make the cut in the vast torrent of history!

Only those who significantly advance the progress of a civilization—for instance, by ensuring the people are fully fed, or by completely eradicating a certain disease or disaster!

Those who truly push the progress of human civilization are the real [figures of the ages]!

Looking globally, there are many figures of the ages.

Looking domestically, there are far fewer!

The emperors of past dynasties do not have such qualifications!

Except for that great man!

"So, when this one-meter-tall little person appears on Earth—"

"Easily entering and exiting The Pentagon, The Kremlin, and Xia Country's military bases..."

"Perhaps as simple as eating or drinking, easily breaking through the [technological blockades] that every nation on Earth takes pride in!"

"When global leaders see this, and realize that the one-meter-tall Three-Foot Child possesses the power to destroy human civilization..."

"Those with the power to speak will know—[We can't fight anymore, we completely can't fight, we're not even in the same league, continuing would just be asking for a beating]"

"The last line: 'From across the oceans, armies shall henceforth cease their strife'; combined with the previous meaning of [awed into submission], this tells us directly—this war isn't stopping because people don't want to fight, but because they can't!"

"Human technology cannot lock onto it, human soldiers cannot even damage it, it might even just be a projection, and it could instantly paralyze the world's weapons and defense systems!"

Jiang Zhe looked at his sister with a solemn expression.

"So, do you still think this one-meter-tall [extraordinary person] from Jiang Zhe can end a global destruction scenario?"

"Everyone is fighting like mad to the point of human extinction."

Having said this, he asked his sister back in a playful tone:

"At that time, during the heat of the Third World War, on the brink of extinction."

"A one-meter-tall person, who might even be a fellow townsman of ours, stands up and says: [Hey, stop fighting, if you keep going, human civilization will be gone. Listen to me, stop the war now!]"

"Would you believe this person could make the hot-headed leaders of the world stop the war?"

After he finished, his sister's eyes couldn't help but tremble, and she kept swallowing hard!

How could that be possible!

Obviously impossible!

Listening to her brother's categorical words...

Beyond the shock on her face, there was still a fair amount of skepticism.

Even if she was willing to accept this theory, the viewers in the livestream wouldn't.

She was really afraid her brother would fail this time, and her plan to support him would fail as well.

For the sake of her brother's reputation, Xiaoyu quickly raised a doubt:

"Brother, how is that possible!"

"Although the conclusion is shocking, it might not necessarily be true!"

These words spoke to the hearts of the viewers, who began to frantically like Xiaoyu's comment.

"Exactly, I also think this is too ethereal!"

"This really isn't very likely!"

"..."

Facing his sister, Jiang Zhe suddenly smiled.

He didn't continue searching for evidence in the tui bei tu but shifted to something else.

"Xiaoyu, I'll just ask one thing—do you think this is the first time aliens have come to Earth?"

Without giving Xiaoyu any chance to react, Jiang Zhe gave a crisp and direct answer!

"No!"

"Of course, this isn't the first time aliens have come to Earth!"
