316: Chapter 317 The Global Chase Triggered by the New Organization

"An organization?" Jiang Shang was stunned, and even Xu Ruohan, who was standing beside him, cast a puzzled look. She hadn't heard Lin Muyang mention this before.

"Yes, the World Guardian Organization." Lin Muyang set down his teacup and casually spoke this grand and formal-sounding name. "It's just a preliminary concept. The specific regulations, personnel, and responsibilities are still in the planning stages."

World Guardian Organization?

Jiang Shang was completely bewildered. The scope of this name sounded far too massive! Moreover, Lin Muyang had never dropped any hints about it before. Was it a spur-of-the-moment idea? But looking at Lin Muyang's expression, he didn't seem to be joking at all.

Xu Ruohan also looked at Lin Muyang thoughtfully. Based on her understanding of him, although he disliked trouble, his actions often held deep meaning. This World Guardian Organization was likely more than just a passing remark.

"In any case, since you're here, you're guests." Lin Muyang didn't seem to intend to explain further, instead saying, "You arrived early and probably haven't had breakfast yet, right? The breakfast at the Eternal Garden is quite good. Have some with us before you leave."

As he spoke, he nodded to Elena beside him.

Elena understood and elegantly raised her fair hand, a holy and soft light flowing in her palm. The next moment, an exquisite dining table manifested in an empty space within the hall, instantly covered with various steaming and fragrant breakfast items. Translucent shrimp dumplings, golden fried eggs, soft white congee, delicate pastries... a blend of Chinese and Western styles in a dazzling array, clearly utilizing some high-level manifestation or spatial storage skill.

This magical and thoughtful scene left Jiang Shang overwhelmed by the favor. He had thought it was just a polite gesture, but he hadn't expected Lin Muyang to actually have this angel-like girl prepare such a sumptuous breakfast, clearly including portions for the three of them.

"This... how could we..." Jiang Shang hurriedly expressed his thanks, his perception of Lin Muyang becoming a bit more complex. This young man, the world's number one expert, didn't seem as cold and unpredictable as the rumors suggested.

"Sit, don't be formal." Lin Muyang took the lead by sitting in the main seat, gesturing for them to help themselves.

Only then did Jiang Shang sit down with his children, feeling somewhat apprehensive yet excited. Jiang Chenyu was almost holding his breath, stealing glances at Lin Muyang who was right in front of him, the light of worship in his eyes nearly overflowing. Heavens! I'm actually sitting and having breakfast with Lin Muyang! If word of this got out, probably very few people in the world would believe it. As a member of the Oracle Organization, he vaguely knew that Lin Muyang was the one in control behind the scenes.

Jiang Yuner was a bit calmer, taking small bites of the delicate pastries, but her slightly trembling fingertips still betrayed her inner turmoil.

Lin Muyang took in all their reactions, feeling a bit helpless. Was he really that scary, or rather, that divine? He had just been built up quite a bit by rumors. Looking at the stars nearly popping out of Jiang Chenyu's eyes, he found it a bit amusing but also somewhat understandable. It was perfectly normal for young people to worship the strong.

Breakfast proceeded in a subtle and quiet atmosphere. The three from the Jiang family ate cautiously, the food having little taste to them as it was more of a ritualistic participation.

While Lin Muyang ate, his mind was racing. The so-called World Guardian Organization was indeed a name that had just flashed into his mind. His initial intention was to bring the Oracle Organization into the light, but thinking carefully, this concept wasn't entirely meaningless.

Now that his strength had reached the peak, no one on the surface of Blue Star could threaten him. However, with Blue Star's billions of people, its vast territories, and the constant emergence of secret realms and monster threats, was he supposed to personally resolve everything? If so, he wouldn't be able to do anything else.

He couldn't be bothered to manage internal human struggles or interest disputes, nor could he manage them all. But regarding crises that threatened the survival of human civilization as a whole—those stemming from monsters and out-of-control secret realms—there truly was a need for a powerful, rapid-response professional team to handle them. The cautionary tale of the Atlantis World was right before his eyes; he didn't want the humans of Blue Star to be forced to hide in the sky one day.

The mission of this World Guardian Organization could be set as responding to global supernatural threats and maintaining the basic order of human civilization's survival. It would not interfere in national internal affairs or participate in power struggles; it would focus solely on clearing high-risk monsters, handling out-of-control secret realms, and preventing potential world-ending crises.

The members of the organization had to be the top elites, requiring at least an SS-Rank Talent, and their temperament, strength, and sense of responsibility would all have to pass strict assessments. It was most appropriate for Xu Ruohan to lead the preparations. Girls like Gu Shuanglin, Gu Xiaoyu, Tashalin, and Chiba Ruri—who already followed him and were sufficiently strong yet relatively free—could serve as the first batch of core members and instructors. Marianne and Hansa Bami could join to increase the organization's international representation and strength. Promising young people with backgrounds like Jiang Chenyu and Jiang Yuner could be absorbed and cultivated.

This organization would become a sharp sword in his hand for handling Blue Star's trivial matters, and it could also provide a platform for him to observe and select talents truly worth cultivating.

After breakfast was finished, Jiang Shang thanked him repeatedly and took his children—who were full of excitement and countless questions—to bid their farewells. Lin Muyang simply told him that once the preliminary establishment of the organization was complete, he would notify them about joining through Xu Ruohan.

After seeing off the Jiang family, Lin Muyang and Xu Ruohan returned to the interior of the Eternal Garden together.

"Muyang," Xu Ruohan walked beside Lin Muyang. Today she wore a well-tailored black knee-length dress that outlined her graceful curves, exuding a faint, elegant, and charming fragrance as she moved. She turned her head to look at Lin Muyang's well-defined profile and couldn't help but ask, "This World Guardian Organization... surely you didn't just come up with it on the spot to dismiss Sect Leader Jiang and the others, right?"

Hearing this, Lin Muyang stopped, turned to face Xu Ruohan, and shook his head, his expression becoming a bit more serious.

"The name was indeed thought of on the spot, but the idea wasn't," he said slowly. "I plan to have you lead the preparation and handle the daily management of this organization. Additionally, we can formally invite those Nation-Guarding Level Experts from various countries who truly have a sense of responsibility and strength to join as the core decision-making layer or senior consultants."

"On my side, Gu Xiaoyu, Gu Shuanglin, Tashalin, and Chiba Ruri will all join as the first batch of combat mainstays and instructors. I will also personally contact Marianne and Hansa Bami to have them join. In the future, any secret realm riots, monster tides, or difficult-to-handle special threats within the scope of Blue Star that could cause large-scale disasters will be uniformly evaluated, coordinated, and resolved by this organization."

He paused, his tone carrying a hint of indisputable decisiveness. "Of course, those who can join this organization must be the elite among elites. My preliminary thought is that talent must at least reach SS-Rank, and they must pass multiple audits for strength, temperament, background, and more. We prioritize quality over quantity. Its duty is protection; it's not a charity, and certainly not a club that just anyone can enter."

Since the core mission of the World Guardian Organization was to protect the basic survival of Blue Star's human civilization and resist supernatural threats that could lead to the collapse of civilization—especially those originating from out-of-control secret realms, terrifying monster tides, or unknown disasters—it would not meddle in national internal affairs, intervene in power disputes, or mediate interest conflicts.

Precisely because the goal was so pure and noble, the requirements for members were demanding to the extreme. The tone Lin Muyang set was to prioritize quality over quantity. To join, talent was the hard threshold—at least SS-Rank.

This immediately filtered out 99.9% of the world's Class Transferees. But talent alone wasn't enough; strength, temperament, sense of responsibility, past records, and even the motivation for joining all needed to undergo strict scrutiny by the preparatory group led by Xu Ruohan. Lin Muyang didn't need a rabble seeking fame and fortune or looking for shelter; he needed a truly sharp, resilient, and obedient blade of protection.

Lin Muyang also invested his own core forces into it. The sister duo of Gu Shuanglin and Gu Xiaoyu had undergone a complete transformation after experiencing high-intensity leveling in Atlantis and breakthroughs with sky-opening grade Elemental Essence. Not only had their levels soared to Level 130, but under the gift of Lin Muyang's tears of the angel, their talents had successfully ascended to Demigod Level!

In particular, with the resources Lin Muyang provided, the World Tree summon that Gu Shuanglin had contracted and nurtured had already grown into a truly strategic-level existence. With a trunk as massive as a mountain and a canopy that blotted out the sun, its roots delved deep into the earth to absorb infinite nutrients, and its branches and vines could turn into the sturdiest of barriers or unleash a world-destroying natural wrath. Its current individual combat power was enough to easily destroy a small-to-medium-sized city, making it a literal mobile natural disaster.

After receiving Lin Muyang's explicit approval and a general framework, Xu Ruohan, the appointed 'Sword-Wielder,' moved quickly and efficiently. Through the Xia Country military and her own channels within the Class Transferee circles, she released the news that the World Guardian Organization was about to be established and was recruiting elites globally on a limited basis.

As soon as the news broke, the world was in an uproar, subsequently triggering an unimaginable earthquake on a global scale!

High-level officials of countless nations, heads of major powers, reclusive top experts... everyone qualified to access information at this level reacted first with disbelief, followed immediately by extreme excitement, apprehension, and frantic calculations.

Lin Muyang! This name had long since ceased to be a simple code for a strong person in the top circles of Blue Star; it was a symbol of a near-living god on earth, an irresistible force. His every move touched the most sensitive nerves of the global power structure.

Previously, because Lin Muyang lived in seclusion and rarely took the initiative to contact the outside world except for a few earth-shattering interventions, many countries—especially those with subtle or even hostile historical relations with Xia Country—were in a state of constant anxiety. They feared that this world's number one expert might one day decide on a whim to settle old scores, which for them would be a terminal disaster.

Now, the establishment of the World Guardian Organization was like a ray of dawn in the darkness, an unmistakable signal! Lin Muyang had no intention of settling old scores; he was even willing to build a platform where global elites had the chance to join his system and become one of his own in a sense!
