From the Metropolis to the Strongest in the Cosmos
Chapter 155: Savior
"It’s Lord Shen Xuan, Lord Li Yang, and the others—Earth’s strongest!"
Seeing Shen Xuan, Li Yang, and the others, a glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of every human on Earth.
But when Baluka saw Li Yang, his expression changed slightly.
’How is this possible? Didn’t Jin Mola say there were no Law Realm geniuses on Earth?’
He was a Longevity Realm Cultivator. In terms of power, he wasn’t yet capable of scanning the entire planet with a single thought, but Li Yang was now right in front of him.
With his strength at the Peak of Longevity Realm, he could naturally tell that Li Yang had broken through to the Law Realm!
And judging by Li Yang’s age, he was definitely not over thirty.
’What the hell is this Jin Mola playing at?’
Anger flared in Baluka’s heart. He had considered the Purple Brilliance Crystal Stones on Mars and the moon as good as his. But now that he was here, he finds a genius on Earth who broke through to the Law Realm before the age of thirty?
’Is that Jin Mola an idiot? We’ve already arrived on Earth, and he still hasn’t figured out the situation here.’
"Greetings, Lord Candy."
Shen Xuan, Li Yang, and the others all wore respectful expressions.
No one found this scene strange. Earth had been isolated from the Cosmos, but through recent information campaigns, all humans had learned about the cultivation realms of the wider universe.
Mortal Realm, Spirit Awakening Realm, Law Realm, Longevity Realm, Star Lord Realm...
The powerful King Level Cultivators on Earth were merely equivalent to the Spirit Awakening Realm in the Cosmos—incredibly weak.
And among those who had come to inspect Earth, one was a Star Lord Realm expert, while the others were at the Longevity Realm and Law Realm!
Before a Star Lord Realm expert, the entire planet couldn’t withstand a single attack.
Candy’s expression was calm. Seeing Shen Xuan, Li Yang, and the others, he said impassively, "I have just completed my inspection of Earth and understand the situation. I will now announce the results of the review."
Hearing this, everyone’s hearts leaped into their throats.
"Yangyang..."
Li Guohai and Zhao Rou stood together, their hands clasped tightly.
Beside them were Li Xue and the others, their eyes glued to the video feed.
Zhou Yao watched the video, surrounded by the Zhou family.
Qin Yue watched the video, with a frightened and nervous Chu Tingting by her side.
Zhao Qianxing and Zhao Kun watched the video, their expressions shifting constantly. Their powerful Zhao family might be reduced to dust in the cataclysmic changes about to befall Earth.
Faced with an alien force that could destroy the planet with a wave of a hand, every person, every powerful group on Earth was nothing more than an ant!
At this moment, everyone watched with clenched fists. The time to decide Earth’s fate had come.
And that hope rested on Li Yang’s shoulders.
Was Li Yang truly a Law Realm Cultivator?
Amidst everyone’s anticipation, Candy smiled and said, "I hereby announce that there is a Law Realm genius on Earth. According to the rules of the Human Race Saint Hall, Earth, this Planet Zero, is rated as a planet with potential and may develop freely!"
His gaze fell upon Li Yang as he smiled. "Can you tell me your name?"
With a wave of his right hand, Li Yang’s body flew involuntarily toward him, stopping right before him.
At that moment, all the people of Earth heard Candy’s words and were stunned speechless.
"Earth is rated as a planet with potential and may develop freely..."
"May develop freely..."
Those last few words echoed in everyone’s mind like a heavenly melody.
After a stupor that lasted only a few seconds, the entire planet erupted in celebration!
"Haha, I knew it! Lord Li Yang is a Law Realm genius! He’s the most incredible genius on Earth!"
"We’re not going to be taken over by aliens!"
"Lord Li Yang, I’ve decided you’ll be my one and only idol from now on!"
"Lord Li Yang, I love you!"
...
All across the globe, billions of people erupted in cheers at almost the exact same moment!
Previously, nearly every human had believed that Earth had no such genius, that the planet would be taken over without any power to resist.
Many had already resigned themselves to their fate, anxiously awaiting its judgment.
After all, if Earth truly had such a genius, it should have been announced sooner.
They held only a sliver of hope that Li Yang would meet the aliens’ standard.
And now, that sliver of hope had actually become reality!
Earth would not be taken over!
Earth would become a free planet!
This day would surely become the most special day for all of humanity, one they would never forget for the rest of their lives!
...
"Yangyang broke through to the Law Realm!"
Somewhere in Xuan City, Zhao Rou wept with joy. She watched the young man fly out on the video feed, her eyes filled with pride and glory.
Her son had single-handedly saved the fate of the entire planet!
"Alright, don’t cry. We should be proud of Yangyang," Li Guohai said with a smile, wiping away Zhao Rou’s tears.
But if one listened closely, his own voice was also choked with emotion.
...
"Li Yang."
At the Zhou family residence, Zhou Yao watched Li Yang, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"Haha, it’s Li Yang!"
"Li Yang is incredible!"
"Yaoyao, when are you and Li Yang getting married?"
"I think tomorrow would be a good day."
The members of the Zhou family were ecstatic. Earth’s destiny had been completely changed because of Li Yang!
Everyone knew that after today, Li Yang would undoubtedly become the number one person on Earth, leading the planet as it made contact with the Cosmos.
And because of their connection to Li Yang, the Zhou family was about to truly prosper.
...
At the Qin family residence, Qin Yue quietly watched the video, staring in a daze at the familiar, incredibly young figure.
Beside Qin Yue was her best friend, Chu Tingting.
Chu Tingting was no longer scared or nervous, but very happy.
But she glanced at Qin Yue beside her and couldn’t help but say, "Yueyue, stop thinking about it. The Li Yang of today isn’t someone we can get close to anymore."
Ever since Li Yang had saved Qin Yue at sea, Qin Yue would often space out by herself and was constantly searching for news about him online.
In the past, Chu Tingting had always joked with Qin Yue, telling her to hurry up and make Li Yang her boyfriend.
This was because Qin Yue’s parents knew Li Yang’s parents; Qin Shanchuan and Li Guohai had even jokingly talked about arranging a marriage between their children.
Qin Yue had a very good chance.
However, after finding out that Li Yang was a Cultivator who could fly, Chu Tingting stopped saying such things.
And now, Li Yang had become the savior of Earth.
A person like that was like the vast sky high above—someone they could no longer reach.
The two of them... were now on completely different levels.
Hearing Chu Tingting’s words, a faint smile appeared on Qin Yue’s face. "I’m not thinking about anything. Li Yang saved the world. I’m just happy right now."
She watched the familiar figure on the video feed.
’Her hero, coming to save her in her moment of peril... This was the dream she had always yearned for.’
’She had experienced it as if in a dream, but now, there was no longer any possibility between them.’
’And before, she clearly had a great chance, but she had pushed that chance away again and again.’
