Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 83 Come to the door
Maple Moon Star.

At this moment, on Maple Moon Star and even in the spaceships surrounding Maple Moon Star, a large number of people were staring intently at the screens in front of them.

Although the location where Qi Yuan fought the Black Demon King was tens of thousands of kilometers away from Maple Moon Star, with the support of the world's powerful technology, this distance was no different from being right under their noses!
Not to mention the probe satellites in the near-Earth orbit of Maple Moon Star, even the navigation and detection systems on those spaceships can easily capture the scene of the battle here!
"Look, that sphere has dispersed, and inside is... Holy crap, no way, that looks like Nasia, the Black Demon King from Blood Sun Star!"

"Ah, it really is the Dark Lord! Wait, who's that next to him? Are they fighting the Dark Lord?"

"Damn it, are you guys crazy? Who cares who it is? Domain Lord level experts fighting at such close range, if we're not careful, the entire Maple Moon Star will be wiped out! Run!"

"Ah, yes, yes, quick, run!"

When various detection instruments captured the faces of the two people confronting each other in the starry sky, it immediately caused a great commotion.

Who is the Black Demon King? He is a peak expert at the ninth level of the Domain Lord level, and an extremely bloodthirsty and brutal one at that!
Anyone who dares to watch his fight will probably die without even knowing how they died!

"Get away from Maple Moon Star! Damn it, I shouldn't have come here. Why are there battles breaking out on Maple Moon Star every other day!"

"Get out of here! Get on the spaceship quickly!"

Not to mention that some spaceships that were already sailing in the surrounding starry sky were all taking cover, even on Maple Moon Star, a large number of foreign tourists and merchants were frantically rushing towards the interstellar docking port.

A full-force attack from a Domain Lord-level expert could plunge the entire Maple Moon Star into annihilation. Who would dare to watch a Domain Lord-level expert fight at such close range?

However, even while desperately trying to escape, everyone still kept a sliver of consciousness focused on the battle taking place in the starry sky.

After all, this is a battle between experts at the Domain Lord level, and at such close range. If we miss it, we may never be able to encounter it again in our lifetime!
"Ah, they've made their move, they've made their move!"

"Oh my god, am I seeing things? A headshot!"

Exclamations arose from the crowd.

"What's all the fuss about? Has that Black Demon King's reputation been wasted all these years? How many people has he killed with headshots? Forget about all that, let's run! Let's get back to Xuanwu Star as soon as possible!"

"No, Sixth Brother, it's...it's that Black Demon King whose head was blown off!"

"What?! The Dark Lord got his head blown off?! That's a ninth-level Domain Lord! How could this be?! Holy crap, it really is!"

"Look, the Dark Lord's head has grown back! Is this the special ability of a Domain Lord-level powerhouse?"

"Ouch, another slash! This time it's shredded to pieces! How horrible, I think I saw the Dark Lord's testicles explode."

"No way, he can survive with just one leg! But why isn't this Dark Lord fighting back? Doesn't he want to?"

"Huh, so they're finally going all out? This aura, this energy fluctuation, so strong! No wonder he's the Black Demon King!"

"Damn it, that golden-armored man has been hit! The Dark Lord... Hey, the Dark Lord!"

"It seems...it seems like it's gone wrong."

The entire process took no more than a few minutes.

The spaceships that were trying to escape, and the crowds that were running and flying, gradually slowed down, came to a stop, and eventually fell into a silent, stunned silence.
"The Dark Lord, is he dead?"

"Oh my god"

The news spread like wildfire.
Virtual Universe, Lanting Continent, Tianyu Regional Office.

On the top floor of that magnificent, water-ball-like building, in an extremely luxurious office.

A middle-aged man with purple hair, whose body was as strong as a giant bear and whose bare chest, neck and cheeks were covered with a layer of cold purple-gold scales, was lazily soaking in the huge hot spring pool in the center of the office.

The walls of the pool continuously emitted unique vibrations, which impacted the purple-haired middle-aged man, bringing him an extremely comfortable and pleasurable experience.

"dong dong~~"

As the knocking sounded, a silver-haired woman dressed in blue armor pushed the door open and walked in.

The woman had an extremely beautiful face, but her cold and sharp eyes subtly revealed a chilling aura that kept people at a distance.

"Your Highness, there is an urgent matter that I need to report to you."

"What is it?" the purple-haired middle-aged man in the pool asked lazily.

"Our Blue Bay Star Region surveillance system received a report that a domain lord within the Blue Bay Star Region and the Willow Spring Galaxy has been accused of disregarding the law and openly attacking a life-bearing planet protected by the laws of the Cosmic Nation."

The silver-haired woman spoke in a cool voice, "The owner of that inhabited planet has now applied to the monitoring system to determine that the domain lord and his organization as a space pirate force, and requests the universe nation to send troops to conquer them."

"."

The middle-aged man in the pool was somewhat confused by what the silver-haired woman said.

"As a domain lord, the monitoring system can verify the facts and enforce the law. Why do you need to report such a trivial matter to me?"

"Your Highness, that domain lord is already dead. What I want you to see is this."

The silver-haired woman showed the other person a virtual screen that looked like a tablet computer.

The scene shows Qi Yuan easily suppressing the Black Demon King Narcissus with two consecutive strikes, finally forcing him to use a desperate move and perish.

"what?"

Looking at the purple arcs of electricity swirling around Qi Yuan and the mesmerizing shadows on the screen, the purple-haired middle-aged man's face immediately showed a look of great interest.

"Such a profound understanding of the Law of Lightning! He surpasses even the geniuses of our Lanting Secret Realm! And he's even grasped the basics of the Law of Time. Who is this young man? Is he a genius cultivated by some powerful force?"

Upon hearing his question, the silver-haired woman shook her head: "According to the information we have collected, he has no background other than being an external member of the Virtual Universe Company."

"Comprehending two laws, and possessing such a high level of mastery over the Law of Lightning, and yet only being an external member?"

The purple-haired middle-aged man seemed somewhat incredulous. "Are Virtual Universe companies really this strict about recruiting members now...?"

"I understand what you mean. You mean we can try recruiting him, right?"

"Yes."

The woman nodded. "No matter the reason, he is currently only an external member of the virtual universe. However, as an external member, he can still join the universe kingdom and serve us."

The middle-aged man with purple hair pondered for a moment, then nodded emphatically.

"For a long time, the top talents in the universe have been prioritized for sending to the Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Arena, resulting in a lack of decent strong individuals emerging locally. This is actually a promising talent..."

"Alright, you can do it yourself. It might not be successful, but there's no harm in trying."

The middle-aged man smiled and advised, "You can be a little more lenient with the conditions. I can roughly guess what these young people are thinking. They just don't like to be constrained. As long as they can work for us, everything is negotiable."

"Yes, I understand."

……

In the most prestigious meditation room of the Eternal Isle, in the Killing Fields.

The lovely girl with bright, jewel-like eyes, 'Lady Soya,' was currently idly flipping through videos of battles from the killing field.

After browsing through them for a long time, she turned them off one by one with great disappointment.

"Sigh, the talent development here in the Eternal Starfield is too backward. Since I took over as the branch manager, I've only discovered two top-tier elites, and one of them absolutely refuses to fully integrate into the company..."

"At this rate, when will I ever accumulate enough points to exchange for the 'Mysterious Scripture of Xuan Guang'..."

"If I had known, I would have preferred to take up a post in a smaller star system within the Cosmic Kingdom. The probability of finding talented people there is higher..."

Suddenly, her expression shifted slightly, and she raised her hand and pointed gently in the air.

A large amount of light quickly converged, and a virtual figure soon condensed and appeared in front of her.

"Haha, Soya, it's been so long! I've missed you so much!"

A rough voice came from that figure.

The cute-looking Soya rolled her eyes and replied irritably, "Don't disgust me, just spit it out!"

"Haha, tens of thousands of years have passed, and your temper hasn't changed at all!"

In the light screen, a burly man in a golden robe with a full beard laughed heartily.

"Haha, girl, I really have something important to discuss with you this time. Take a look at this video I sent you first."

"video?"

Sonja curiously clicked on a video in her email.

She was slightly stunned after just one glance.

"This...this video...is that the elite kid I discovered a few years ago? But how did his cultivation level become a Domain Lord? Only a few years have passed...wait, and his level of understanding of the laws surpasses most ordinary Realm Lords, and he's even comprehended the Law of Time."

"How did this kid do it? His rate of progress is comparable to some of the geniuses in the company's secret realm, but those geniuses enjoy such abundant resources, while he..."

Soya blinked her jewel-like eyes, her pupils filled with disbelief.

"Old Zhan, where did you get this video?" Soya asked quickly.

"Haha, this battle took place in the Blue Bay Starfield under my jurisdiction. Even the military surveillance system of the Lanting Universe Kingdom received the news, so naturally I knew about it too."

The burly man in the golden robe on the screen smiled smugly.
"I only found out after checking that this kid is actually a member of your Eternal Empire branch. But Soya, such a genius, how come you only gave him the status of an ordinary external member? If you don't think he's good enough, then I'll go through our Blue Bay branch's channels to recommend him!"

Upon hearing this, Soya's eyes widened immediately: "You dare!"

Maple Moon Star Administrative Office.

After killing the Black Demon King Nasia, Qi Yuan did not return to Red Leaf Star immediately, but waited quietly here.

It wasn't until the next day, when the official Lanting Universe Kingdom confirmed through the evidence he submitted that the Blood Sun Star organization, led by Nasia, was a space pirate force and that they would be sending a large army to wipe them out, that he finally felt completely at ease.

After all, although Nasiah was dead, he still had two Domain Lord-level subordinates and a large number of Universe-level subordinates under his command.

If these people are hostile to this territory, it will be a considerable problem.

However, now that the official army of the Cosmic Kingdom has been mobilized, he can finally relax.

"With the intervention of the official authorities of the Cosmic Nation, it saved me a lot of trouble."

Qi Yuan smiled with relief upon receiving the message, and then began to think about his next itinerary.

"Things here are finally settled, and the nutrient solution will arrive soon. Now we can finally focus on dealing with the troubles on the Eternal Empire's side."

"Once I resolve these two concerns, I can peacefully develop my territory, train my disciples, and improve my strength."

"Once I achieve immortality, I'll find a way to get a nominal teaching position at the Virtual Universe Company. That'll be the time to truly take off!"

"The four secret realms of the Virtual Universe Company gather nearly half of the peerless geniuses from the entire human race's territory. I wonder what the return rate for those geniuses will be—seventy or eighty, or even over ninety? Tsk tsk, just thinking about it is exciting!"

Just as he was slightly lost in thought, a clear reminder came from Xiao Ai in his mind.

"Master, guests have visited the Guanlan Mansion residence in the virtual universe."
