Chapter 128: Kill Him!
Inside the sightseeing ship.
The crowd, which had been chatting and admiring the view, suddenly felt a slight distortion in space.
Immediately after, a behemoth appeared nearby without warning.
It was a spacecraft that far exceeded the size of the sightseeing ship, being four or five times larger.
The hull was cold with sharp lines, and its armament modules were vaguely visible; simply hovering there, it exuded a sense of oppression.
For a moment, the entire sightseeing ship fell silent.
"This… what level of spacecraft is this?"
"A direct space jump? Without even a warning?"
"Which big shot has arrived…"
Whispered discussions rose and fell.
The originally noisy atmosphere was instantly suppressed.
In the air, there was a faint hint of tension and awe.
"Brother Nan, you are well-traveled. This… which big shot is it?"
The Young man surnamed Nan stared at the giant spacecraft in the distance, his expression becoming unusually solemn as he lowered his voice and said, "This is a dedicated spacecraft for a Human Race Prodigy."
"I've seen one once before."
"Spacecraft of this level can only be mobilized by Prodigies whom Taichu City is focusing on cultivating."
He paused, his tone becoming noticeably serious: "In a word—don't mess with them."
The expressions of those around him changed slightly.
"That exaggerated?"
The Young man surnamed Nan sneered, "Exaggerated? My brother was a B-rank Genius back then. While training in Taichu City, he accidentally offended a Prodigy."
"And the result?"
"He was beaten so badly he couldn't get out of bed for a month."
As he finished speaking, the people around him gasped.
"This…"
"That was a B-rank Genius…"
For a moment, the gazes directed at the spacecraft became even more filled with awe.
"Why would a Prodigy-level figure suddenly stop in front of a sightseeing ship?"
No one answered, because the spacecraft's hatch was slowly opening.
Tang Yue's figure was the first to emerge.
With one step, the aura of a Third-Order God instantly spread out, like an invisible pressure enveloping the entire sightseeing ship area.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
The demi-god staff member inside the sightseeing ship's face changed drastically. He hurried forward and bowed respectfully, "Lord God, may I ask for your instructions?"
Tang Yue didn't even look at him. She simply scanned the surroundings and, after confirming there was no threat, turned and bowed, saying respectfully, "Your Highness, there is no danger."
The next moment, Yang Fan's figure stepped out of the spacecraft.
His gaze swept across and quickly locked onto Luo Bing in the corner.
Now that Yang Fan was a demi-god, he took a step and soared directly into the air, flying into the interior of the sightseeing ship and landing in front of Luo Bing.
"Luo… Bing'er, the city exit procedures were delayed a bit. Sorry to keep you waiting."
The entire sightseeing ship seemed to have been hit by a pause button.
The crowd that had been buzzing with discussion just now was now completely frozen.
An existence of this level appearing on a sightseeing ship was actually for a woman?
Shock, astonishment, disbelief.
Various emotions flickered across everyone's faces.
Some had complicated looks, staring at Luo Bing with even a hint of jealousy, wishing they could take her place.
Luo Bing's lips curled slightly; the smile was very faint, but it was real.
Everyone has vanity. Even though she was usually cold and aloof, she was no exception.
Yang Fan reached out and put his arm around her waist.
Luo Bing paused slightly but did not resist.
Just like that, under countless complicated gazes, the two turned and left.
The hatch closed, and space vibrated once more.
The behemoth disappeared instantly, as if it had never been there.

Inside the sightseeing ship.
The silence lasted for several breaths.
Then a voice spoke up, "Brother Nan… you were quite brave just now. I take back my words of mockery."
"It's a good thing you didn't succeed. If you actually had, you probably wouldn't have been able to return to the Nan Family."
The Young man surnamed Nan already had cold sweat on his forehead. "Don't say any more…"
In that moment just now, he even felt a chill down his spine.
Fortunately, he hadn't offended the other party. If a Human Race Prodigy really came looking for trouble…
His Family would likely push him out immediately, without the other party even needing to act.
Inside the spacecraft.
Tang Yue stood to one side, her demeanor respectful: "Your Highness, outsiders cannot enter Taichu City, but there are many high-specification tourist planets nearby."
"I have already arranged a residence for you and Madam—Xinghan Vacation Planet, and the presidential suite is ready."
Yang Fan nodded: "Alright."
The spacecraft started up again, space distorted, and it traversed the distance in an instant.
Xinghan Vacation Planet.
The moment the spacecraft emerged, the scene before them changed abruptly.
If Taichu City was the pinnacle of simplicity and order, then this place was the other extreme.
The entire planet was brightly lit, with various neon lights weaving into a sea. Countless light rails and advertising projections floated in the sky, and the architectural style was flamboyant and magnificent.
Feasting and revelry, debauchery and luxury. It was as if the very air was permeated with the scent of extravagance.
Yang Fan and Luo Bing were both stunned; the visual impact was too strong.
Yang Fan couldn't help but complain in his heart: "The living environment here is much more comfortable. If I didn't know better, I'd think this was Taichu City."
Tang Yue's expression was normal, as she was clearly accustomed to this. She led the two into the top hotel on Xinghan Vacation Planet—
Starry Vault Royal Court Hotel.
They went straight to the presidential suite on the top floor.
The door opened.
A soft pale red light slowly came on.
The air was filled with a faint floral fragrance, the floor was covered with a soft carpet, and in the center was a large bed, beside which were exquisite crystal wine glasses and red wine.
Tang Yue bowed slightly: "Your Highness, everything has been arranged for you."
Yang Fan silently gave a thumbs up; his Dao Protector's arrangements were indeed thoughtful.
After Tang Yue withdrew, only the two of them remained in the room.
Yang Fan looked at Luo Bing. Since the day she was drugged, although the two had been in contact, they had always maintained a certain restrained distance.
But now, such distance seemed no longer necessary.
He took a step forward and pulled her into his arms.
Luo Bing's body stiffened slightly. "I still have things to do…"
"We'll talk about it tomorrow," Yang Fan said casually, giving her no chance to refuse.
Luo Bing was silent for a moment, and this time she did not push him away again.
The night deepened.
The lights in the room were soft, and the atmosphere gradually became suggestive.
Low breaths and slight sounds were infinitely magnified in the silence.
It started with gasps and later turned into pleas for mercy.
The next day.
Luo Bing slowly opened her eyes, frowning slightly at the obvious soreness in her body.
She turned her head to look at Yang Fan beside her, a hint of resentment in her eyes.
Yang Fan, on the other hand, was refreshed. He stretched and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "A demi-god's body is truly terrifyingly powerful."
Luo Bing got dressed, her tone returning to its usual calmness: "Luo Mingxuan's matter has been investigated thoroughly."
"His financial transactions and chat records have all been locked down."
"It's confirmed that he took the initiative to contact the Alien Demi-god, providing information and some funds to deduce your Divine Kingdom's coordinates."
"How should we handle it?" Yang Fan asked.
"Everything will be as you wish. The person has been detained, but Yang County and Taichu City are too far apart to bring him here. We can enter the Virtual World to deal with him in person."
Soon, the two put on the virtual helmets prepared by the hotel and their consciousnesses connected.
—
Virtual World.
Following the coordinates provided by Luo Bing, the scene shifted, and the two arrived at the Luo Family dungeon.
Real-time image transmission was used here, so Yang Fan's decisions could be directly executed by people in reality.
In the cell, Luo Mingxuan was locked in the center.
He was in a terrible state at the moment, his body covered in scars, his aura weak, and his eyes hollow—it was clear he had undergone torture.
He no longer looked like the wealthy young master he once was; he looked more like a dead dog waiting to be disposed of.
Yang Fan looked at him, his eyes showing no anger or pleasure from revenge, only a faint contempt.
Nowadays, Luo Mingxuan couldn't even be called an "enemy"; he was just a small nuisance that needed to be cleaned up.
Yang Fan suddenly remembered the superior-toned mockery the other had directed at him in the Genius Exchange Group.
Looking back now, he only found it somewhat laughable.
After a moment of silence, Yang Fan said coldly, "Kill him!"
The verbal dispute back then wasn't a major issue, but it had almost turned into a life-and-death crisis for him.
If he hadn't achieved a Breakthrough to demi-god, the outcome would likely have been completely opposite.
The reason strong people live long is not that they have no enemies, but that they do not underestimate any enemy. Even the tiniest pawn can overturn the entire board at a critical moment.
A person can be strong, but not arrogant. They can be ruthless, but must be steady.
