…
The territory of the Human Alliance of the Milky Way was too vast. The administration of each district basically had their own business. The Management Committee, or the Administration Bureau that the people were more familiar with, was mainly responsible for making regulations and implementing macro-policies.
Nominally, the military headquarters and the Science Academy of the Federation were under the jurisdiction of the Administrative Bureau; but the problem was that the human civilization had been destroyed once due to the invasion of the Sea of Dark Matter. The current development of the human society was based on survival. As such, the status of the military headquarters was quite special; it could even be said that it was superior to the administrative system of the Federation of the Milky Way. Fortunately, the current technology in the Federation of the Milky Way was advanced and abundant in resources. As a result, no problem had occurred in the last several hundred years.
The name 'General Li' was captured by Jing Jiu the moment before the Yuanying of that Star State swordsman dissipated.
There were at least thousands of generals in the Federation of the Milky Way, many of whom had the family name of Li.
But when the priestess heard his question, she didn't even think about it and felt that he should be asking that person.
General Li was the only real general, because he was the commander-in-chief of the military of the Federation of the Milky Way. In a sense, he was the most powerful man in the Federation of the Milky Way.
What was even more mysterious was that no one knew General Li's full name to this day.
Jing Jiu loved to watch the news on TV and had mastered a lot of general knowledge on the interplanetary network. Naturally, he knew the military commander that the priestess was talking about.
It was evident that the military was involved in the two assassinations he encountered. He figured that the ascendant should be an important figure in the Federation of the Milky Way, but he didn't expect that he was the ruler of this world.
Who among the ascendants in Chaotian had the surname Li?
In a very short period of time, he thought of three people.
The Grandmaster of the Blood Demon Church.
An itinerant cultivator from Penglai Island.
The stone man of Chen Wu Mountain.
As for which one it was, he would naturally know when he met or killed the other party.
Jing Jiu stopped thinking about it and walked down the stone steps. The sneakers on his feet made no sound.
The pair of sneakers looked ordinary, but they were actually made of genuine leather. To say nothing of the craftsmanship, the material alone could only be used in a place like the praying hall.
The priestess knelt on the ground again.
The rest of the bishops and maids reacted quickly this time, and knelt down with her.
A ripple occurred on the ground in front of the praying hall.
Looking at the youth walking towards the grassland, the priestess suddenly felt a little sad.
Why was God's back so lonely?
…
…
Jing Jiu didn't feel lonely, just a little tired.
It was much easier to clean up the broken pieces in the spiritual world of the female priest than to treat Zong Lizi's illness; but it was still related to prolonging one's life, so Jing Jiu consumed a great deal of his fairy energy.
The reason why he was willing to help the Priestess was because he needed to maintain his relationship with the Priestess.
He was very interested in the distant ancient civilization, and he needed to obtain the right of access to the military from Ran Handong's family through the female priest.
Of course, these reasons were not important — the priestess was his believer and extremely devout to him. Of course, he had to treat her well.
Well, the reason why he was tired was not because he had to treat the priestess, but because he was a little annoyed.
Annoyance was what he hated the most.
Regardless of whether it was an ascender or a cocoon breaker, that fellow hid behind the scenes and came to harass him from time to time, which really annoyed him.
He had already deduced a lot of the secrets of this world, so there shouldn't be too many mistakes. However, he was still very annoyed.
Chaotian was better.
Aoyama was much more beautiful.
He had so many disciples and followers working for him at the time; he had enjoyed a peaceful life.
Even though he had fought against his Big Brother for hundreds of years, he was still able to do it efficiently.
It was nothing like what he was doing now.
Thinking of all this, Jing Jiu returned to the hotel outside the University of Stargate.
As the police and security guards in charge of the security were about to stop him and inspect him, they were driven to one side by Mr. Xia.
Mr. Xia was the head of the priest clan and would serve Zong Lizi for the rest of his life. As such, he stayed in the hotel the entire time.
Since Jing Jiu didn't say anything, Mr. Xia didn't dare say anything either. He followed Mr. Xia to the side of the elevator reverently and came out of it.
Ding!!! The door of the elevator opened.
Ding!!! The door of the room opened as well.
Seeing Jing Jiu safe and sound, Zong Lizi felt relieved. As she was about to ask him about the situation, she suddenly found that Jing Jiu was not in a good mood. After some thought, she brewed a pot of tea and placed it by the chair on the deck, looking extremely obedient.
Looking at the pot of tea, Jing Jiu thought of the iron kettle again, remaining silent.
Looking at Jing Jiu's back, Zong Lizi somehow sensed that he was a bit lonely at the moment. "This … well … the gaming cabin is ready. Would you like to have a look?" she asked anxiously.
Jing Jiu didn't think he was lonely at all.
He had been cultivating for thousands of years, and spent most of his time behind closed doors in the manor cave or sleeping in places like Zhaoge City and the Three-Thousand Nunnery. As such, he was used to being alone.
He had successfully ascended and come to this world. He had seen many sceneries he had never seen before and so many people. How could he feel lonely?
Hearing that the gaming cabin was ready and thinking of the faces he had made a few days ago … Jing Jiu suddenly felt a sense of anticipation. He turned around and walked to the next room.
…
…
The Federation of the Milky Way was far from the level of development of the distant ancient civilization, but it was quite advanced in some aspects, such as the development of the games.
The gaming companies had their own computer game generator, which could generate all kinds of plots randomly. What they needed to do was to create the world structure, the characters' settings, and the plot clues.
The gaming cabin of the latest model occupied half of the room. Jing Jiu walked in and lay on the specially made sensor chair. He connected to the interactive system and set up the Inherited Heaven Sword Formation. He suppressed his mental strength to one ten-thousandth, and then closed his eyes.
As he opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was a ray of morning sunlight outside the window.
The morning sunlight shone on the yellow tiles.
This was the royal palace of Zhaoge City.
He was fully aware that many male players would choose his Big Brother Taiping, Liu Shisui, or He Zhan.
Yet, the character he chose was Jingyang.
It was because he was Jingyang.
A large hand reached over and squeezed his face gently.
A middle-aged couple was looking at Jing Jiu in the swaddling clothes.
It had happened many years ago, so his memory was a bit fuzzy. He wasn't sure if his parents looked like this.
An excited yell rang out. A youth ran in from outside the grand hall, looking quite healthy.
The youth looked at Jingyang, who was still a baby, and was certain that he was healthy, showing a satisfied and joyful expression on his face.
Jing Jiu was quite satisfied as well.
He hadn't forgotten the face of his elder brother.
Then, he looked outside the window again.
An old Daoist with a sage-like demeanor was looking at him.
The Great Grandmaster, the Immortal Daoyuan, had witnessed Jing Jiu's successful birth. After making sure that this person with natural Dao quality belonged to Aoyama, the Immortal Daoyuan displayed a rare delighted expression. "The Sword Sect of Aoyama will flourish in your hands," he said sentimentally.
Jing Jiu wondered who had written this line.
He was very confident in himself, so he didn't think he didn't deserve this line.
In fact, when he left Chaotian, the Sword Sect of Aoyama was more powerful than it had ever been in its history, and no one dared to challenge it.
Yet, he still felt awkward about it. It was because it didn't fit his character to focus on developing the Aoyama Sect.
All he did was do something in the process of pursuing the Dao.
The Immortal Daoyuan had left, and he would come to Zhaoge City to bring Jing Jiu back to Aoyama a few years later.
In other words, he would meet his Big Brother a few years later.
How many years would it take for him to meet Sanyue?
Should he meet her earlier?
No.
Jing Jiu wouldn't try to change his Big Brother's mind, because it was impossible. More importantly, if he changed his mind, the story would develop in a different direction.
His Big Brother might not be in a hurry to take on a disciple. No matter how talented Liu Ci was, he wouldn't be able to reach the Heaven Ascension state if he had an inferior master, and he died at the age of three hundred.
If Liu Ci died earlier, the Liu family would have a different arrangement. Perhaps, Liu Shisui wouldn't have been born.
And he didn't want to meet Lian Sanyue earlier.
She was too powerful at the time, and he was no match for her. What if she insisted on bringing him to the Snowy Kingdom to kill the Queen?
As he was thinking of all this, he forgot one thing.
The important figures in the game wouldn't disappear earlier.
Even if they disappeared later in the story, they could start over again.
This was different from the reality.
…
…
The first day, Jing Jiu didn't come out.
Zong Lizi went to check on the gaming cabin every once in a while. She didn't realize she hadn't eaten anything until she felt hungry.
The CEO of the Twirling Rain Company came to visit her in person. He told her that the technical department of the company had monitored the activation of the gaming cabin from a distance and inquired about the details.
Zong Lizi told him that the game had begun.
The Twirling Rain Company started the internal testing in advance that night because they were worried that nobody would play with them.
…
…
The next day, Jing Jiu didn't come out.
Zong Lizi sat outside the gaming cabin with a chair in her hand, holding a large pile of snacks. She was learning the knowledge needed to become a female priest while eating the snacks incessantly.
The main preacher of Shou 'er City and Mr. Xia came to visit her together, confirming the departure time and procedures for the Main Planet with her.
Zong Lizi glanced at the quiet gaming cabin and asked them to come back in a few days after some hesitation.
…
…
A few days later, Jing Jiu still didn't come out from the gaming cabin.
If the gaming cabin didn't have a complete body monitoring system, indicating that Jing Jiu was all right, Zong Lizi would have cut off the power and opened the door of the gaming cabin.
Even so, she was still very worried.
When one's Cultivation state reached a certain level, one could indeed go without eating or drinking for many days; but Jing Jiu had never been a gaming maniac.
She hadn't even seen him play any games, not even Candy Crush.
…
…
On the ninth day, the praying hall had begun to inquire about Jing Jiu cautiously. Zong Lizi couldn't stand it anymore.
She had found something wrong with Jing Jiu the day he entered the gaming cabin.
As she was about to cut off the power in the gaming cabin, the door of the gaming cabin opened slowly along with a sizzling sound, and Jing Jiu walked out from it.
He didn't look any different from nine days ago, and even the wrinkles on his clothes didn't seem to have changed.
Yet, she felt something different about him.
