175: Chapter 175 The Broken Star-Protecting Array, Ga Yan!

Time flew by, reaching the third day.

Following humanity's successful Civilization Assessment and the complete eradication of the Sea Race, the Citizens of Great Xia celebrated wildly.

Now, under regulation at all levels, the Great Xia society had returned to normal daily life.

If there was anything different,

it was that all major news media were publishing the legendary deeds of Li Fan and the many martyrs.

Throughout Great Xia, statues and monuments were erected for the deceased ancestors like Duke Yu, as well as for outstanding younger generations like Li Fan.

And in the streets and alleys, people were now only discussing what changes life would bring after integrating into the Great Universe, or what civilizations they might encounter upon joining it.

As for Li Fan,

after staying at the base for a day and erecting tombstones for the deceased ancestors alongside Li Daguo, Huang Lan, and the God-level Experts of Great Xia,

Li Fan and parents returned to Hang City.

According to their previous plan,

the wedding between Li Fan and Gu Ling was supposed to be set for these few days.

However, considering that ancestors like Duke Yu had only recently passed away, holding a banquet so soon was inappropriate, so the wedding date was postponed again.

But it wasn't a big issue.

Because the wedding was just a formality that was not particularly important to Li Fan and Gu Ling.

The affection between the two no longer required proof from a wedding ceremony or a marriage certificate.

After staying in Hang City for one day,

Li Daguo and Huang Lan departed first to handle the affairs of Great Xia.

That's right.

The two, now the strongest figures on Blue Star, had taken over the leadership seat previously held by Duke Yu, becoming the new heads of Great Xia.

They would soon integrate into the Great Universe.

This process was completely unknown, and they needed to formulate corresponding countermeasures for the situations that might arise at that time.

As for Li Fan,

he did not take on any official position and had absolutely no desire to do so.

These few days, he just wanted to spend time with Gu Ling and his friends, taking a good few days off.

Subsequently, he planned to continue cultivating diligently, improving his strength, and preparing for the journey to the Great Universe.

And it was on the second day of Li Fan's vacation,

that Li Fan received a call from Li Daguo.

"Xiaofan, come to Beizhou City for a moment. I've already sent someone to pick you up."

"Huh? Dad, what's the rush?"

"A life form from the Great Universe has arrived on Blue Star. To prevent any accidents, we might need that magic treasure of yours that launches mental attacks."

Hearing Li Daguo's words,

Li Fan, who had been lying on a rattan chair by the pool sunbathing with Gu Ling, immediately sat up straight.

"A life form from the Great Universe has come to Blue Star?"

This news was explosive.

They hadn't even merged into the Great Universe yet, and a life form from the Great Universe had already come knocking?

But thinking of Skin Bear, it wasn't surprising.

If the Dark Star could accidentally crash onto Blue Star, then it was naturally possible for other cosmic life forms to arrive there too.

"Is something wrong, Mom and Dad?"

Seeing Li Fan's reaction, Gu Ling couldn't help but sit up too, frowning as she asked.

Li Fan put on his clothes while waving his hand and smiling, "Just a small matter. I'm going to Beizhou City. I should be back by tomorrow at the latest."

He didn't plan to tell Gu Ling about the visit from the Great Universe creature.

After all, telling her wouldn't help and might only cause her to worry.

...

Meanwhile, in the suburbs of Beizhou City,

inside a secret base belonging to Zhu Tianzheng,

Li Daguo, Huang Lan, and a group of Great Xia God-level Experts were all gathered around the conference table in the main hall, their expressions extremely tense.

They had already seen the crashed spaceship.

Its technology was even more intricate than the ship they had obtained when they first acquired the virtual network.

And this time was different from the last time.

This time, they had captured a real, living creature from the Great Universe!

Before they could figure out the purpose of this creature coming to Blue Star,

they dared not make any rash contact.

In the laboratory cage seventeen levels underground, a young man was lying down. He wore a blue shackle collar around his neck, and his appearance was quite handsome.

Suddenly, the corner of his eye twitched slightly.

The next second, he abruptly opened his eyes and sat up.

"Where is this?"

The young man looked at his surroundings, completely bewildered.

After a moment of silence, he finally guessed the general situation.

"It seems I've been locked up by the civilization on this planet."

The young man was quite helpless, but despite his helplessness, he showed no signs of panic.

At this moment,

he began to recall the moments before he fainted.

"This planet is truly strange; it actually has a damaged Star Protection Array!"

"And it's definitely a very high-level Star Protection Array!

It can not only intercept objects but also temporarily suppress cultivation, causing my cultivation to drop instantly. If I hadn't been physically tough, I probably would have been smashed to death by flying debris."

"Isn't this place just nurturing a primary civilization? Could it be that a high-level civilization appeared here long ago?"

The young man frowned, feeling lingering fear, and then began to make bold conjectures.

The reason the spaceship suddenly lost control was due to the interception by the Star Protection Array.

However, this Star Protection Array was very weak and incomplete.

Otherwise, he and his spaceship would have been instantly pulverized.

But this thing didn't look like something the humans of Blue Star could create at all.

Innumerable doubts swirled in his mind.

"Forget it, no need to think so much."

"My cultivation is slowly recovering. Once I get back to the ship, I'll send out a signal and leave this problem for those guys to figure out."

The young man muttered to himself, sensing the changes in his body.

His current aura, viewed by the cultivation stages on Blue Star, was still at the Quasi-Saint level, but it was slowly rising.

At this speed, he should be able to restore his strength to its peak in a few days.

"It's a pity, though. If this Star Protection Array could be fully restored, it would definitely give those guys a headache!"

At this moment, the young man spoke again, a hint of ruthlessness flashing across his face.

Clearly,

he harbored deep hatred for the 'guys' he mentioned.

Just as he was talking to himself, silently waiting for his cultivation to recover,

a voice sounded in the laboratory.

"Who are you? Where are you from? What are you trying to do on Blue Star?"

This was unmistakably Li Daguo's voice.

They had noticed the young man waking up through the surveillance and were now sending the classic 'one-question, three-part' inquiry.

Actually, Li Daguo's language and the young man's language were not mutually intelligible.

But curiously, the young man could completely understand what Li Daguo was saying.

Considering his cultivation had not fully recovered,

the young man adopted a very proper attitude.

"My name is Jia Yan. I am from the Hunter Star Field, the Yan Tu Star in the White Horse Galaxy. I accidentally strayed here and have no malicious intent."

"Congratulations on successfully passing the Primary Civilization Assessment. You are about to integrate into the Great Universe. Perhaps I can tell you some information you wish to know."

"However, I prefer face-to-face discussions. Being confined in a cage is too stifling."
