Xia Fan took control of the Dreadnought and fired a few shots at the nameless planet, blowing the base of the God Slaying Society into smithereens. After venting his anger, he handed the command over to Midas and began the journey back to the Star Domain.
According to the news from the headquarters, they had received the coordinates of the Devil's Den. The Alliance took this matter very seriously. The Special Task Force of the three alliances and the three military divisions were all rushing to the Devil's Den.
After all, the appearance of the Devil's Den confirmed Heaven's Wings' prophecy from 40,000 years ago. Such a terrible disaster was no longer something the Nebula Alliance could handle alone. They needed the cooperation of the three alliances.
As for Xia Fan and the others, they were ordered to immediately rendezvous with the reinforcements and return to the region to rest. The Devil's Den and the Godslayer Society's subsequent pursuit would be handled by the three alliances.
Xia Fan put aside what he was doing and found an empty cabin on the ship. He told his brothers that he wanted to rest. After entering the room, Xia Fan could not wait to take out the mini terminal from his spatial ring and insert the memory card that Buddha had given him into the card reader.
* Swoosh *
The laser projection on the surface of the wrist terminal was activated, and a screen popped up. Xia Fan frowned and read the words on the screen. It turned out that this card could only read and write once. Once someone read the contents of the card, the memory card's self-destruction function would be activated.
Xia Fan was not in a hurry to read the contents. He first took a shower in the bathroom to recover his energy, then returned to the living room and gently pressed the button on the screen.
* Swoosh *
The screen suddenly flashed, and the first thing that came into Xia Fan's sight was a star map. There were many special symbols on it, and the symbol in the center was a door.
Xia Fan looked at the description below the star map. It turned out that this was the star map of the three alliances' core restricted area. The door-shaped symbol in the center was the legendary Gate of the Universe, which was where Heaven's Wings had invaded Cangyue.
The other symbol that looked like an energy shield should be the dome where Xia Fan and the scourges had lived. The dome was not far from the Gate of the Universe, and there was only one galaxy between them.
Seeing the dome symbol, Xia Fan could not help but tremble. The scenes of him growing up with the scourges flashed through his mind like a movie. Because he did not have the authority to enter the restricted area, Xia Fan had not been able to go back to the dome to take a look. He did not know if the scourges had really been killed by those mysterious enemies.
Xia Fan suppressed the sadness in his heart and continued to study the star map. Other than the Gate of the Universe and the dome, there were more symbols that he did not know the meaning of. For example, there was a white building that seemed to be some kind of research institute. There was also a strange seven-colored flower. Xia Fan had never heard of such a plant when he was studying pharmacology.
In short, this was a very complicated and mysterious star map. It marked hundreds of big and small locations in the forbidden zone. Xia Fan memorized the star map and the landmarks and then began to read the following content.
The increase in speed allowed Xia Fan to read and memorize faster. About an hour later, he had read through the contents of the memory card three times and memorized every punctuation mark. After that, Xia Fan clicked on the screen and popped it out.
Crack ~
The fingernail-sized memory card was ejected from the card reader by the terminal. The moment it left the terminal, the memory card suddenly burst into flames, burning all the secrets into ashes.
Xia Fan felt parched. He took out a bottle of mineral water from the fridge and gulped it down. He rubbed his temples and tried to organize his thoughts.
Simply put, Drunk Buddha told Xia Fan two things.
Firstly, Fo Zui no longer trusted the upper echelons of the three alliances and suspected that there was a traitor among them.
Secondly, the place Drunk Buddha wanted Xia Fan to go to was in the forbidden zone, and the person he was looking for might know the secret of the four big families.
"It has something to do with the four families," Xia Fan mumbled to himself as he looked up at the ceiling.
At this time, Ming Zhu had also finished showering in the bathroom. She flapped her small wings and flew onto Xia Fan's shoulder. She tilted her head and looked at Xia Fan curiously.
Xia Fan had originally wanted to take Ming Zhu with him to take a shower, but she was actually shy. Her white and tender face was as red as a little apple. Xia Fan thought back to Ming Zhu's embarrassed look and found it rather amusing. It turned out that this annoying little vixen could also be embarrassed.
"What are the four big families?" Ming Zhu heard Xia Fan mumble to himself and asked curiously.
Xia Fan said, "The four big families are the Cang, Long, Yue, and Yin families. After they were defeated by the Heaven's Wings, they didn't participate in the establishment of the three alliances. Instead, they completely disappeared. It's been forty thousand years since then, but there's still no news of them. No one knows what they're up to."
"Tch." Ming Zhu pouted unhappily. "Do they deserve to be called the four big families? They're just a bunch of losers. Not only are they weak in combat, but they're also very evil. We didn't want to start a massacre in Cang Yue, but those guys actually started a war. They deserve to be completely routed. "
Xia Fan suddenly thought of something and asked Ming Zhu, "Right, I heard that my father left behind a Heaven's Wings Medallion before he left. Could that thing be in the hands of the four big families?"
Ming Zhu shook her head and said with some regret, "I don't know. I was already in a state of suspended animation when I discovered the demonic cavern. Your father left behind the Heaven's Wings Medallion, and Xia Chen died in battle. Those were all things that happened later.
But I'm guessing that Xia Chen's death has something to do with the four big families. They're not good people. According to your father, he didn't want to start a war with other humans in the face of the Ant Demon, but Yue Yin kept going back on his word time and time again. He completely angered your father. "
Xia Fan thought that was true. Xia Chen's memorial clearly recorded that Yue Yin had used negotiations as an excuse to ambush Heaven's Wings, resulting in Xia Chen's death. At the time, Yue Yin had been the leaders of the four big families, so they must have been the ones who'd ordered the ambush.
With that in mind, Xia Fan really didn't have a good impression of the four big families.
Ming Zhu stood on Xia Fan's shoulder and patted his neck with her little wings. "Now that things have come to this, I'll tell you the truth. It's useless even if you find the Heaven's Wings Medallion."
Xia Fan froze. "Why?"
Ming Zhu jumped onto the table. Faint white light shone from her body, and she turned into a little girl. She cupped her chin with one hand and said, "Because time and space are chaotic in the Boundless Universe. Anyway, it's very troublesome. Even if Heaven's Wings returns to Cangyue, it's not certain which time it'll be. It could be the past, or it could be the future.
"The Heaven's Wings Medallion's only function is to let your father know that you're still alive. But to come back and find you, unless they can find a way to control the time node of the Universal Gate, they can only rely on luck.
"But you don't have to worry too much. Those fellows from Heaven's Wings have always been learning. In the past, the Heaven's Wings Medallion was just a simple energy generator that couldn't cross the barriers between universes. The Heaven's Wings Medallion, however, has the ability to send signals across space. That's the result of them learning the Law of Space."
Sigh ~
Xia Fan sighed. The chaotic time node was indeed a problem. According to what Ming Zhu said, it would be quite difficult to return to her family.
Suddenly, Xia Fan froze. "You just said the Law of Space? What's that? "
Ming Zhu crossed her legs and said as if this was a common occurrence, "It's the power of the Law of Eternity, which is higher than superpowers. If you want to be as fast as your father, just superpowers won't be enough. You also have to grasp the power of the Law of Speed.
"But unfortunately, I'm not from your family, so I can't tell you what the Law of Speed is. Us dragons are existences that transcend all other systems of power. We don't need superpowers, we don't need laws. We're naturally strong from the day we're born."
Ming Zhu seemed very pleased with herself as she said this, but she did have the right to be pleased. After all, she was a dragon, an incomparably powerful species. Heaven's Wings needed to constantly learn and cultivate, but the dragons only needed to live off their old age.
Xia Fan gently swiped his finger across his spatial ring and took out the Golden Law for Ming Zhu to see.
"Do you remember what I said about the scourges that raised me? The most powerful of them was Grandpa Blind. Before he left, he gave me this. It seemed very precious, but the strange thing was that there wasn't a single word on it. Is this the so-called Law of Speed you were talking about? "
Ming Zhu lowered her head and looked at the ancient book, and her round eyes immediately shot out a bright light aura.
"The Golden Law! You actually have a Golden Law! "
"How many people would want something like this? Why did you only tell me now?"
Xia Fan shrugged. "Look carefully. It's just called the Golden Law. It's a wordless book inside."
Ming Zhu rolled her eyes at Xia Fan and said fiercely, "You country bumpkin, I'm going to die of anger! How can such a supreme existence like the Law of Speed be described in words? "
Xia Fan frowned. "Can't I?"
"Of course not!" Ming Zhu put her hands on her hips and said in an educating tone, "Why don't you try describing the universe in words for me?"
Uh …
Xia Fan shook his head. "I'm afraid I can't do that. After all, the universe is too big, too mysterious, and too complicated."
Ming Zhu said, "That's what I'm saying! The ability to describe in words is very limited. The most important thing to learn about Laws is to understand them. Understand the powerful laws that exist in the universe.
"Although I haven't learned any Laws, I know that none of them are passed down through words. Instead, they are passed down through spiritual power. This Golden Law may seem to have no words, but it's just that you haven't found a way to read it."
Xia Fan was shocked. He sat up straight and said to himself, "As long as I find the right way to read it, I can learn the Golden Law?"
Ming Zhu said disapprovingly, "Of course. That Grandpa Blind you mentioned, what is his superpower?"
Xia Fan thought about it. "Grandpa Blind doesn't seem to have a specific superpower. Oh, right, his eyes are very special. They shine like gold."
Ming Zhu nodded. "Then I'm afraid he's a vision-type superpower user. So, you see, if a vision-type superpower user can master the Golden Law, you can too."
