Section 596

Afterward, he gritted his teeth and, on his own initiative, led a group of The Dark Ones Organization’s experts and high-ranking members to surrender.

Only then did the Cosmic Human Federation refrain from directly destroying it, instead taking control and subjecting it to the strictest scrutiny and interrogation.

At the same time, the Cosmic Human Federation also investigated the employer who hired them to assassinate Xu Zi'an and the person within The Dark Ones Organization who issued the order to assassinate Xu Zi'an.

First, regarding the person who ordered Jiang Yaoyao to assassinate Xu Zi'an…

Coincidentally, that person had fled.

According to intelligence, the person had already fled before issuing that order to Jiang Yaoyao.

This behavior was very telling.

It indicated that this person knew Xu Zi'an's identity.

Furthermore, it was deliberate!

It's just unknown whether it was to deliberately harm Jiang Yaoyao and The Dark Ones Organization, or if it was a deliberate attempt to see if Xu Zi'an could be eliminated.

And even more coincidentally…

This person was still caught.

They were reported.

The informant was his wife.

His wife didn't know what industry he was involved in.

But when his information was exposed, his wife, as a member of the Cosmic Human Race, righteously reported him, putting family loyalty aside.

Federal Army experts swiftly apprehended him.

After interrogation, the reason this person acted as he did was very simple.

He wasn't a Human Traitor, nor did he hold a grudge against Xu Zi'an.

He was purely dissatisfied with the treatment he received from The Dark Ones Organization…

When Xu Zi'an learned this news, he was dumbfounded.

One can only say… the Universe is vast, and full of wonders.

Finally, the employer who issued the assassination contract was also, unsurprisingly, discovered by the Cosmic Human Federation.

The employer was none other than Gao Muli's father, whom Xu Zi'an had eliminated during the Rat Extermination Vanguard Plan, and who acted out of resentment.

The Cosmic Human Federation employed the most ruthless methods against the Takagi Group.

An order was issued, and a ruthless campaign of arrests and massacres was launched against all Takagi Group members within the Qiong Yue Star Region.

Within a single day, over ninety percent of Takagi Group members were killed, and the remaining ten percent were all apprehended.

What awaited them was imprisonment for a hundred million years.

Essentially, they were doomed.

Because the strongest among the arrested Takagi Group members was only a Battleship Captain.

All those above Battleship Captain were dead.

And a Battleship Captain… simply doesn't have such a long lifespan.

So the ultimate outcome was to die of old age in prison.

After all, even if their Biological Energy reached its maximum value in prison, they would have no chance to Evolution.

Death was their final and only destination.

…

After many days of long travel, after several years, he finally returned to the familiar Earth Federation and the familiar Shenzhou Academy once again.

The moment he saw the Shenzhou Star System, Xu Zi'an felt a sense of trepidation, like approaching his hometown after a long absence.

Looking up, today's Shenzhou Star System was exceptionally lively.

Shenzhou Academy Principal Gu Chengzhan personally led a fleet, piloting star destroyers to welcome Xu Zi'an and his group from the direction they were returning from, within the Shenzhou Star System.

Beside him were the Vice Principal, deans, and the teachers and students of Shenzhou Academy!

There were also a large number of residents from the Shenzhou Star System, as well as experts from other Star Systems of the Earth Federation who had come to pay their respects!

Dense and numerous, a glance revealed that the total number of welcoming starships was at least over a million!

Even more so, many starships had special paint jobs or directly displayed a full-holographic projection—

"Welcome, Pride of Shenzhou Academy! Welcome, Pride of Earth Federation, Radiant Paragon Xu Tianjiao Xu Zi'an!"

"Bring glory to Shenzhou Academy! Bring glory to Earth Federation! Bring glory to the Cosmic Human Race!"

"Brilliant Paragon Xu Zi'an, welcome home!!!"

These were normal.

There were also some abnormal ones!

"I'm a woman, 33 years old this year, never been in a relationship, Frigate Captain, 176 cm tall, fair skin, beautiful face, and long legs! Seeking Xu Tianjiao's contact info ~"

Then, on the holographic projection, she also included several photos and videos of herself.

"I have a young daughter, sixteen years old. Fair-skinned and beautiful, a beauty that can topple cities!"

"Xu Tianjiao, do you want a concubine? She doesn't cry or make a fuss, she's well-behaved and sensible!"

"…"

All sorts of strange and unusual paint jobs and full-holographic projections.

Of course, most were still normal.

The enthusiasm for welcoming Xu Zi'an had truly reached a certain Realm.

In fact, Xu Zi'an's fame in the Earth Federation had reached a Peak.

Especially in the Shenzhou Star System and Solar System!

He was even regarded as their own pride by the people of these two places!

In fact, people from these two Star Systems had even argued about it for a while.

One said Xu Zi'an was from the Solar System and was the pride of the Solar System.

The other said Xu Zi'an was a student of Shenzhou Academy and was the pride of the Shenzhou Star System.

But in the end, no one won the argument.

There were even a few shameless people from the Qiong Yue Star Region who said that Xu Zi'an was the pride of the Qiong Yue Star Region.

Then they were furiously spammed by netizens from the Yaohua Star Region.

Netizens from the Yaohua Star Region didn't care if Xu Zi'an was called the pride of the Solar System or the Shenzhou Star System.
