âYellow-Shirted Envoy?â The purple-shirted figure frowned.
âFrom the intelligence I gathered, Earthâs Xu Jingming has some relationship with Tejano from the Redmond Group, but I never expected the Yellow-Shirted Envoy to appear.â Nock was extremely respectful. âSir, what should I do?â
âYou alone will temporarily abandon all your strongholds and head to a desolate planet nobody knows about to hide,â the shirted figure instructed. âYou can return if the Redmond Group doesnât attack in 20 years.â
âTwenty years? Alone?â Nock hesitated.
âOnce the Redmond Group pursues the matter, staying in the lair will only result in death,â the purple-shirted figure said. âGet moving.â
âYes.â Nock didnât dare to hesitate.
The projection dissipated, and the transmission ended.
On the surface, he was the boss of the Squarestar Bandits, but his faction was able to expand so much because he had an Origin lifeform backing him! He still didnât know the true identity of his benefactor.
However, the benefactor knew everything about him. If he was obedient, he would be the leader. If he was disobedient, he would probably die quickly.
Iâll put up with it for 20 years. Nock boarded a small spaceship that very day and silently left Rainsaepe. After leaving, he gave instructions to his subordinates to handle matters.
As long as he could remotely control his subordinates through the net, he was confident in keeping everything within his control even if he didnât appear for decades. After all, his personal strength and his bioarmor were enough to deter those with ambitions.

Sigh, Iâll spend the next 20 years here. Nockâs small spaceship entered a cave inside the lifeless rock planet and lived here alone.
He couldnât enter the virtual world either.
The simple virtual worldâOohook Worldâthat the pirates logged into was much inferior in terms of pleasure. Nock could only put up with all of this.

The leader of those space pirates lived alone on a desolate planet.
At this moment, Prince Lunardo had arrived at a basic cosmic civilization and was enjoying its hospitality.
âMmm.â Prince Lunardo wore a local costume and ate local fruits as he looked at the artwork they displayed.
âNot bad, not bad.â Prince Lunardo nodded in satisfaction. âYour Lampa civilization is average, but you are talented in painting.â
âThese three are all treasures of our civilization. Since Your Highness likes them, please accept them. Only in the hands of someone with noble status will these treasures be more valuable,â the receptionist said warmly.
Prince Lunardo smiled and nodded, and his subordinates immediately helped him accept it.
âYour Highness.â The handsome, silver-haired butler walked forward and glanced around. Immediately, a maidservant stepped forward and ushered the Lampans out.
âWhatâs the matter?â Lunardo asked.
âSomething big has happened on Earth,â the handsome, silver-haired butler whispered.
âOh?â Prince Lunardo was a little expectant. âSpill it.â
âAfter Earthâs civilization was isolated, a space pirate squadron finally appeared,â the handsome, silver-haired butler said.
âThese pirates naturally came when they smelled something.â Prince Lunardo scoffed. He knew the nature of these space pirates very well.
âBut a Yellow-Shirted Envoy from the Redmond Group appeared. He publicly announced that he was under orders to protect Xu Jingming,â the silver-haired butler said. âHe easily finished off those pirates.â
Bang!
The fruit plate beside Prince Lunardoâs hand was overturned and shattered.
âDamn it.â Prince Lunardoâs expression darkened. âYou sent a Yellow-Shirted Envoy for a weak and lowly civilization?â
He had to admit that he didnât even have a single Yellow-Shirted Envoy!
That was a Civilization-level smart bot after all, possessing the basic destructive power of a Lv. 9 Origin lifeform. Prince Lunardo couldnât buy such a terrifying weapon⊠Of course, he couldnât afford it either.
âYour Highness, what should we do next?â the handsome, silver-haired butler asked softly.
What should I do? Prince Lunardo shot him a glance. âWhat can I do? Would I dare do anything?â
The butler was stunned.
âThatâs Tejano Redmond Xire. What can I do after hearing his name?â Prince Lunardo said. âThe Black Moon civilizationâs withdrawal of the garrison can be explained as⊠the Black Moon civilizationâs way of expressing goodwill to me. It was the Black Moon civilizationâs own decision. Now that the Yellow-Shirted Envoy has appeared, how am I to make a move? That would be falling out with Tejano.â
âAlthough he canât do anything to meâa member of the royal familyâthereâs no need to go that far. This is a very tiny conflict; itâs in the past,â Prince Lunardo said with a smile. âAlright, let the Lampans continue. I want to see the other gift they prepared.â
âYes,â the silver-haired butler replied.
Prince Lunardo smiled and didnât seem angry at all. After all, before his brother rose to prominence, he had declined to the point where he was about to be stripped of his royal status. He had experienced too many days of being bullied and having to endure it.
Sometimes, things would pass simply from sucking it up.
If my brother becomes emperor⊠There were flames hidden in the depths of Lunardoâs eyes.
******
The appearance of the Yellow-Shirted Envoy on Earth caused a chain reaction.
The leader of the space pirates, Prince Lunardo, and many civilizations in the Oohook Star Alliance were very surprised! These civilizations had previously treated Earthâs civilization as a new civilization and had drawn a line. After all, when many civilizations drew a line between themselves and Earth, those civilizations that didnât draw a line would be targeted by Lunardo.
But now?
âThe Redmond Group is building a planetary branch on Earth?â
âThe Redmond Group is a local power of the Hunter Cosmic Sector. We donât dare to offend him. I believe Prince Lunardo will understand.â
Silently, the various civilizations of the Oohook Star Alliance were willing to deliver goods online. They no longer ostracized Earth.
How lively. Xu Jingming looked up at the moon in his courtyard.
With the Primordial Battle Armor, he could clearly see the large-scale construction on the moon.
The star port of the Redmond Groupâs planetary branch was finally decided to be built on the moon. The moon was very close to Earth, and the cost of building it on land was much lower.
In the future, a large number of spaceships could be docked on the moon.
As for clients? They could be picked up and dropped off.
The trip from the moon to Earth could be completed in the time it took to make a conversation.
Not bad. With the Redmond Groupâs branch, Earth can integrate into cosmic civilization more quickly. Xu Jingming also saw that many of Earthâs upper echelons were in high spirits. Everyone saw the hope of their civilization growing stronger.
Not long ago, the upper echelons of Earthâs civilization were still panicking and uneasy about the future. Many people even criticized Xu Jingming.
Now, they were starting to flatter him again.
It canât be helped. This is how weak civilizations are! The hostility of an important figure makes weak civilizations tremble. The kindness of an important figure excites weak civilizations. Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.
This is the sorrow of weak civilizations. Only when a civilization is strong can it be more confident. Itâll remain calm even when entertaining important figures, Xu Jingming thought before getting up to head to the virtual chamber.
âŠ
In the virtual world.
A mountain or person you rely on may collapse. If a civilization wants to be strong, oneâs strength is the most important. Scientific progress needs time. As for the evolutionary path⊠It will be years before Earth produces another person with talent that can catch up to me. Xu Jingming knew this very well.
After all, most basic civilizations in the universe couldnât produce a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform in history.
With such talent and strength, he naturally had to work harder.
If I became an Origin lifeform, I wouldnât have to suffer Lunardoâs petty wrath! Xu Jingming opened the Battle of the Universeâs Apex interfaceâ
Name: Wu Ming
Oohook Star Alliance Ranking: 2
Hunter Cosmic Sector Ranking: 362
Overall Universe Ranking: 10071
After the Lunardo incident, Xu Jingmingâs desire to fight became stronger. The effects I get from Battle of the Universeâs Apex are clearly much better than the Demon Vanquishing World. Continue! Work hard to get into the Hunter Cosmic Sectorâs top ten!
