Chapter 1049 Baby's Attack

The next day, people on Earth resumed their normal lives.

Actually, not many people took yesterday's riots to heart, because Frieza's army failed to cause any damage to Earth. Those people died one by one as soon as they landed on the city streets. Some people even thought it was a big comedy show.

Frieza had already mastered the control of his power through his training. When he concentrated his power to fight Lu Li, he didn't actually create a world-destroying scene. Therefore, many people felt that the two fighting in the sky weren't that powerful.

On the contrary, the citizens of Satan City felt that Buu, who had previously fought Frieza, was more powerful as Satan's disciple.

As for Fat Buu, when he was destroyed, Ah-Huo collected his remaining cells. Black Gold Frieza's power was indeed terrifying, with a powerful destructive effect. Even Buu's cells took a long time to reassemble.

Because Fat Buu did his best to protect the Earth, Lu Li rewarded Fat Buu with a super-sized chocolate pudding, which made Fat Buu quickly forget his anger at being blown up.

After Ah-Huo ate Frieza, it took him a whole day to successfully refine him, which is why he is inferior to Buu. Buu absorbs people directly across many attributes, which is very unreasonable.

However, through this absorption, Ah Huo successfully gained a useful talent: the removal of Frieza's limiter.

If one relies solely on this ability to increase power, it's easy to get stuck at the peak of the eighth rank. However, Ah Huo can also gain more talent by devouring other creatures. In addition, since he belongs to the space faction, he will have many more opportunities to break through in the future.

With the King's talent, Ah Huo's attributes will be easier to improve. Lu Li thinks he can take some time to give Ah Huo more Spartan training, which will also help Ah Huo lose weight.

Trunks and Goten suffered a great loss this time, almost dying at Frieza's hands, and they reflected on their actions after the battle.

And so, this scene unfolded before our eyes.

"Mr. Lu, could you please talk to Trunks for me? He's going to take over the company, how can he be like his father, always away from home practicing cultivation?"

Bulma said with distress that Trunks hadn't said a word since he returned yesterday. This morning, he came to her and said that he didn't want to be the president anymore and wanted to train to regain his martial arts spirit.

"Isn't there still Bra? Bra doesn't like cultivation, so taking over the company is perfect for her."

Lu Li said with a smile.

Bulma sighed and covered her forehead upon hearing this, "I was such a fool to come to you for advice. You and Vegeta are exactly the same."

She realized that Lu Li wouldn't try to persuade Trunks; all these martial artists thought the same thing—that combat power was the most important thing.

"Mom, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I've made up my mind."

Trunks appeared behind Bulma without her noticing. "Besides, Mom is so young, she can manage the company for another ten years without any problem."

Bulma didn't know whether to be happy or angry when she heard this. She actually wanted Trunks to be the president because she found managing the company troublesome and wanted to retire early. Who knew that her eldest son didn't want to do it?

She glanced at Bra helplessly, "As expected, all these male Saiyans think about is fighting and killing."

Just then, Xiao Fang, who was running around the manor, jumped out and asked, "Grandpa Lu Li, can you take me with you to cultivate?"

Bulma was speechless. It seemed to have nothing to do with gender. Xiaofang was also a girl, but she also loved training and had the heart of a martial artist.

"Xiaofang is still young, she should go to school first."

Lu Li bent down and patted Xiao Fang's head, but did not agree to Xiao Fang's suggestion.

It wasn't that he thought Xiaofang lacked talent and wasn't suited for this path, but rather that he felt a child only has one childhood in their life, and if they spent all their time on spiritual practice, they would experience far fewer things.

Besides, Wukong had adventures with various friends during his childhood, so he didn't lack social interaction and interpersonal relationships. If Xiaofang were to come with him, it would be like she was in seclusion in the subspace, which would be meaningless and would be terrible for a child whose mind is not yet fully developed.

Even if Lu Li were to teach Xiao Fang cultivation, he felt it should be done after Xiao Fang grew up. In any case, Xiao Fang had been training with Bick regularly, which was enough to build a solid foundation.

Moreover, based on his own experience, Lu Li felt that illiteracy was unacceptable. He himself did not have the means to do so. His master died early, and he was forced to become independent and embark on the path of revenge at a young age. However, when his master was still alive, he paid great attention to his education.

After the banquet, everyone went their separate ways, but before parting, many Earthlings lamented the ruthlessness of time.

Ten years after the Tournament of Power, many of the main characters on Earth have shown signs of aging. Krillin, for example, has quite a few wrinkles on his head, and his hair has started to turn gray.

Yamcha and other single guys felt that time was flying by. In the blink of an eye, they were middle-aged and old, and they didn't even have a wife, while Goku's granddaughter was already ten years old.

They had also inquired about Wukong and his companions' situation and learned that they had begun to comprehend the Dao and achieve immortality, which made them even more moved.

However, no one said they wanted to join Wukong and the others in their training, since everyone had their own lives and martial arts training was not their whole life.

For example, Klin is now fully adapted to social life, clocking in and out of work, earning a salary to buy a house and save for his children's tuition and dowry. He is already very satisfied with his life.

He had gone on various adventures with Wukong when he was young, and fought bloody battles to protect the Earth when he grew up. After getting married, he became a policeman, married a beautiful wife, and had a lovely daughter. He felt that as a human being, he had achieved his goal.

Klin was a monk, so he had great wisdom in some aspects. He said that longevity is a way of life, but living a long life does not necessarily mean happiness.

For example, he himself could follow Wukong and the others to seek enlightenment and achieve immortality, but his wife and children would definitely not be willing. His relatives and friends would die of old age prematurely, and he didn't want to watch his daughter die of old age before him.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural order of things. Going with the flow and expanding the path to happiness in one's short life is enough to bring joy.

Lu Li listened to Klin's words and sighed repeatedly, feeling that what Klin said made a lot of sense. However, he was destined to be a different kind of person from Klin. He was selfish and foolish, greedy and domineering, lacked great wisdom, and was not the kind of person who could let go after losing something.

After everyone went their separate ways, Lu Li also returned to the subspace.

He went to see Aizen, who had made considerable progress after thousands of years of research. His latest research topic was the effective use of useless information in the True Spirit.

Aizen, through the device he customized for himself, has been able to achieve an explosive increase in spiritual pressure, reaching a maximum of 276 points in overall attributes. Even in the twelve universes, he is a top-tier expert.

Chatting and drinking with Aizen made it easier for Rikuro to rediscover his humanity. Compared to his restless nature, Aizen was actually quite patient. In Sousuke's words, 'While waiting for Riku-nii, I've already lived for three hundred years.'

In fact, Aizen is three hundred years older than Lu Li. Long before the long seclusion in the Dragon Ball world, Aizen had already reached a level of longevity that transcended ordinary people. After all, as a Shinigami in the Bleach world, longevity is a common phenomenon.

Living in the environment of Seireitei, Aizen never thought about the concept of lifespan, because the Shinigami around him all had long and seemingly endless lifespans, and Yamamoto was even called a living fossil.

Further back, beings like monks have lived for millions of years, so Aizen has always felt that the immortality of Shinigami is a matter of course, and he is not so sensitive to the passage of time.

Lu Li is different. He lives in human society and spent his childhood in exile, where every day felt like an eternity. His sense of time is naturally different from Aizen's.

Lu Li and Lan Ran talked for a long time and discussed their ideas on breaking through to the ninth level.

“Brother Lu, I probably won’t be able to advance to the ninth rank in this world. I’ll most likely have to go back to the space and honestly accept missions to advance. But it’s different for you. If you want to do that, you have to break through your current realm.”

Aizen said that he knew that without the power of the ninth rank, even if Lu Li had mastered the power of the Root, he would not be able to kill all the Grand Priests and the Omni-King, because the transmission of power is subject to attenuation.

"I know that, Sousuke. Just don't end up becoming a supporter when things go wrong."

Lu Li said with a smile, "In that case, you'll have to sit at the same table as Xia Ren and the others."

Aizen smiled and shook his head, "That seems like a good idea too. I can just sit in the space, eat delicious food, and wait for Brother Lu to come back and bring me supplies to support me."

"Alright, enough joking around. It's not good to always stay here doing research. I think Sousuke could learn from me and go out for a walk. Maybe he can get some new inspiration."

Lu Li said, "For example, Dr. Hyde from the last Super Cell incident, he might give you some new inspiration."

Aizen didn't refute this time. "Brother Lu is right. I just need to go out and maintain the spacetime shielding device."

The two clinked glasses, drank the last of the immortal-grade spirit, and then went about their own business.

Aizen left the subspace, while Lu Li returned to the forest he had planted.

…………

With books, the journey is long; without books, it is short. In the blink of an eye, more than three thousand years have passed.

Over the years, Goku, Vegeta, and the others have gradually come to understand some of the mysteries of longevity by using the longevity substances they received from Lu Li's Primordial Spirit Seed. It has been a long time since they last replenished their longevity substances from Lu Li.

Using the so-called method of conserving energy, these people can now live for tens of thousands of years without any problem, relying on the longevity substances in their bodies, and they can remain in a youthful and vigorous state for these tens of thousands of years.

After confirming that Wukong and the others would not die of old age, Lu Li had been in a state of near-death meditation for nearly two thousand years.

He entered a deep state of enlightenment, and external things could no longer disturb him. During this time, Aizen came back to find him once, but he did not wake up.

Wukong and the others also came to see Lu Li, but they saw Lu Li sitting cross-legged under the old tree. The old tree behind Lu Li was sometimes alive and sometimes dead, and Lu Li's long hair was sometimes jet black and sometimes snow white. His whole person seemed to be switching between the two states of life and death.

Moreover, Lu Li possessed an aura that made him difficult to approach; fallen leaves in the forest that landed nearby would inexplicably be annihilated.

Another time, Goku saw a leaf fall from a big tree. Because of the shockwave from his sparring match with Vegeta, it blew towards Luli. After the leaf was destroyed, something terrible happened.

The tree from which the leaf fell began to wither and die, starting from the branch that connected to the leaf, and then the decay spread throughout the entire tree, turning it into dust that scattered in the air.

Moreover, after this tree disappeared, the same thing began to happen on another tree, and this trend continued to spread until it affected a small part of the forest before it stopped.

Goku and the others didn't know if this phenomenon was controlled by Lu Li, but when they tried to ask, Aizen stopped them, saying that Lu Li's state was dangerous and that if they approached rashly, they might perish like those trees.

Thus, Wukong and the others dared not disturb Lu Li any longer, but they felt that Lu Li's realm was becoming more and more extraordinary.

The constant training inevitably makes people homesick. When they miss home, Goku, Gohan, Vegeta and the others will go out to visit. Anyway, time passes very slowly outside. Even if they are in seclusion for decades, it will only be a month.

Since everyone had come out of seclusion, Gohan suggested that they gather everyone together for a banquet to reminisce about the past.

Finally, everyone left the subspace and returned to Earth, thinking of giving themselves a short break after their diligent cultivation.

So, only Lu Li, Aizen, and Ah Huo, who was undergoing special training, remained in the subspace.

What Lu Li and Aizen didn't know was that this Dragon Ball protagonist group's vacation was also fraught with some troubles.

Aizen was researching the profound mysteries of the True Spirit and was in a state of soul wandering. Ah Huo was engrossed in his training, and Lu Li sat cross-legged under a tree, his Root Soul Intent appearing and disappearing intermittently. No one paid attention to what was happening outside.

And so, a new enemy appeared on Earth.

Amidst the raging flames of war, Xiao Fang, now a young girl, led Bula Dong in hiding, stumbling along the sewers.

With tears in her eyes, she carried the injured Bula on her back, saying, "Bula, please don't die! I'm going to find Senzu Beans right away."

"Xiaofang... leave me behind. I've already hidden the research data in Satan City. Take that data and escape from Earth, then figure out another way..."

Bra said weakly that Earth had already fallen half a month ago and was controlled by an alien creature with parasitic abilities named Baby.

Baby wasn't actually that strong, but he gradually controlled many people. For example, he first controlled Trunks and Goten when they came out of seclusion, then controlled Gohan, and finally controlled Vegeta when he was careless. In the end, he controlled Goku.

Before being controlled, Wukong saved his granddaughter. Xiaofang escaped with Bula, which led to the current scene of them hiding and running away.
