The Last Sentinel

Zhuangzi, in the Inner Chapters, "The Human World," states:

To accept what is beyond one's control as one's fate is the highest virtue.

To understand that one can act freely and without restraint is the ultimate attainment of the Way.

Knowing that some things cannot be changed, and accepting them with peace of mind, is the highest state of being human.

Understanding that you have control over some things, and then going all out to do them, is the highest level of doing things.

When you realize that you're just a front man for a group of big shots, you should accept your role as a gofer and nanny without thinking of yourself as some kind of chosen one or some kind of protagonist with some kind of destiny.

When you realize that you need to share your lifespan and destiny with powerful figures to maintain your bonds, then share it decisively so that they can see your sincerity.

What does a true chosen one of destiny look like? It's Wu Xinxin, the junior sister of [Jin Da]. She didn't receive any gifts from any big shots, yet she was able to cripple herself with a single punch.

I was too arrogant and pretentious before, and I forgot that I was just a gofer for the big shots.

Now that they have rediscovered themselves, the big shots have joined forces to interfere with their own karma, creating a development strategy for themselves as a "circular warrior".

If natural talent is insufficient, the Gu Dao can compensate. If the heart meridian is damaged and cultivation is abandoned, a stronger heart meridian and a stronger foundation will be generated.

As the saying goes, humans are the spirit of heaven and earth, and Gu is the essence of all things. By using the power of Gu to supplement what humans lack, humans will be without any defects. They cannot obtain what they seek externally, but they can live endlessly by seeking what they seek internally.

As long as you follow the path pointed out by the expert, your talent won't be much worse than Wu Xinxin's (who is known for her strength)!

"Aunt Lu, this is the sword cultivation method called 'Red Dust Sword Path' that Senior Lu Haoran shared with you. Senior Lu restructured it in his hometown dialect. Please practice it slowly!"

"Uncle Cui, this is the [Wuji Dao] shared with you by Senior Cui Aotian. This mental cultivation method is custom-made for you, emphasizing a free and unrestrained life. Just focus on cultivating it, and cultivate as much as you can!"

"Guo Xiaoqiang, get over here! Your brother gave you the 'Martial Spirit,' so practice it diligently. I'll check your martial arts every three months. If your skills stagnate, I'll break your legs!"

After receiving the talent, fortune, and lifespan shared by Ye Feng, Aunt Lu, Uncle Cui, and the other two have essentially reached the S-level intelligence and spiritual level required by the Human Alliance.

Compared to ordinary people, the intelligence and mental level of an S-level person is worlds apart.

The direction their loved ones had gone and their future, which had once troubled them, became clear. They realized that their loved ones might have become powerful beings, almost like gods, rather than ordinary mortals like themselves.

Now that they have received these cultivation techniques shared by Ye Feng, the three are even more grateful to Ye Feng. It is Ye Feng who has taught them how to cultivate immortality and become gods, and has led them to become stronger and live longer!

Even though Ye Feng said that these were all given by his son and that he was just a messenger, he was still a messenger.

But the fact that they specifically teleported the three of them instead of other powerful transmigrators or their relatives shows that, in a way, it's a special consideration and preferential treatment for the three of them. It's a sign that they think highly of the three of them.

Aunt Lu and Uncle Cui were extremely grateful to Ye Feng.

Guo Xiaoqiang, however, was quite resentful after being beaten, but he dared not show his teeth. Neither Ye Feng nor his brother Guo Xiaoming had a good temper; they were both serious about beating him.

Aunt Lu kept saying, "Xiao Feng, thank you so much for giving us all this. I hope it won't affect your abilities!"

Cui Yannian was a straightforward man, and he said bluntly, "It will definitely affect Xiao Feng's strength! Xiao Feng is probably severely injured right now and will need a long time to recover before he can regain his previous strength!"

Ye Feng chuckled, "Out with the old, in with the new. I have given up my past power in order to open up a more glorious future. You two seniors have received half of my cultivation, so you should have made great progress in your spirit and intelligence. But you two should also take care of your health. My physique is very poor, and your bodies have not been strengthened. You should exercise more in the future to ensure long-term success. Also, I will not be able to share my cultivation with you again in the future. The Weiyang Partner Contract can only be shared once."

Aunt Lu said, "We'll be careful!"

Cui Yannian said, "Then, I wish young friend Ye Feng a speedy recovery to his peak strength!"

Ye Feng clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute, "Please wait a moment, gentlemen. It's getting late, I must take my leave!"

"What we have said today, the three of you must not divulge!"

"Goodbye!"

Ye Feng cupped his hands in greeting to the three people and was about to push open the door to leave.

Outside the door, Vice Dean Zhang and Wu Xinxin saw Ye Feng come out and hurriedly went to greet him.

"Xiao Ye, you've finally come out!"

"Senior brother, something terrible has happened!"

Ye Feng glanced at their expressions and gave them a look, signaling Wu Xinxin to go and meet his uncle and aunt, while Guo Xiaoqiang, along with himself and his master, went to the side.

Ye Feng asked, "What happened?"

Vice Dean Zhang lowered his voice, "Isn't Japan currently enforcing an 'extermination order'?"

Ye Feng asked, "What happened? Was the [Extinction Order] interrupted?"

"There's no interruption," Vice Dean Zhang said. "The scope of the [Extinction Order] has been expanded!"

Ye Feng was taken aback. "Expand? Expand it by how much?"

Vice Dean Zhang said, "Several earthquake generators located southeast of Fusang have shifted, and now the large island in the middle of the sea where the monkey is, as well as a large coastal area of ​​India south of Daxia, are all submerged by seawater!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "How many people would die from this?"

Vice President Zhang said, "To be conservative, at least 100 million more people have died now. And you know what's going on with the Indian side. Even they themselves don't know the exact number of people. Half of the Indian side's territory is covered by seawater, and they don't know the exact number of people who have died there."

Ye Feng remained calm, but in his heart he just wanted to say, "Well done!"

Ye Feng originally felt that the Wolf King's extermination order had too small a scope. The interstellar travel era was about to begin, and all the insects on Blue Star that could be killed should be wiped out, instead of just killing one Fusang!

In retrospect, it seems that some people of good character and integrity did indeed carry out this matter correctly in secret.

Vice Dean Zhang said, "The Renmeng team just caught the guy who caused the fission generator to deviate. His surname is Jin and his name is Jin Tianci. My master just called me and said that Jin Tianci has some connection with you. He asked if you want to protect him."

Jin Tianci?

Ye Feng remembered him; he was that Korean who had been wildly promoting the Ming Dynasty at the foot of the Himalayas!

Since the Ming Dynasty is going to return, it needs a fierce enough dog to intimidate the warlords.

It has to be said that Jin Tianci is definitely a reliable dog. His move to expand the scope of the Extinction Order is very pleasing to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng couldn't openly protect Jin Tianci, so he could only subtly suggest, "Master, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Even if we kill Jin Tianci, we can't bring back the hundred million monkeys who died, or the countless Third Brothers. In my opinion, this is just a work error. There's no need to label it as human extinction. A simple punishment is enough."

Vice President Zhang was a shrewd man. With just one sentence from Ye Feng, he knew that the matter had been defined as a high-profile but light-handed approach, with the punishment being severe on the surface but ending with a mere warning.

Vice Dean Zhang nodded. "Alright, I'll get back to Master and the others right away. Tell them to protect Jin Tianci—a demotion in name only, a promotion in reality. Your advisor is very skilled at this tactic!"

"Jin Tianci is a good dog, and he's very aware of his duty as a dog. We should protect him!" Ye Feng said, pulling on his master's shoulder. "But I heard from Aunt Lu that Master recently took down a family and made things quite difficult for them!"

Vice Dean Zhang hurriedly said, "That's not true. I never abuse my power. I'm just stating the facts. That family's tax evasion and smuggling activities should have been punished according to the laws and regulations of Great Xia. I'm just acting on behalf of Heaven. I didn't..."

"No need for explanation." Ye Feng pressed his right index finger against Vice Dean Zhang's neck. "Aunt Lu's son greatly admires your actions and has asked me to pass on a cultivation technique to you, the [Longevity Mantra]! Teacher, just cultivate this technique; it's guaranteed to be profitable!"

Vice Dean Zhang beamed with delight. "Xiao Ye, isn't Aunt Lu's son quite remarkable?"

Ye Feng shook his head and said, "It's unspeakable, unspeakable!"

Vice Dean Zhang nodded, "Understood, understood. I won't ask any more questions. Please convey my gratitude to this expert!"

"I will! I've already passed on the technique to my teacher. It's getting late, I'll take my junior sister and leave!"

"Won't you stay for a meal?"

"No, I need to go to Perfect World to take care of some personal matters."

"Alright, then Xin Xin, you can go to the Human Alliance with your senior brother. Remember to listen to him and don't throw a tantrum!"

"Yes, teacher!"

Ye Feng led Wu Xinxin straight to the spaceship below the hospital and left the hospital quietly.
