Under the starlight, the slowly rotating Sea Dragon Star was visually split in half, one side fiery red, the other dark.
Gao Xuan stood at the window of the command cabin of the Spear King, overlooking the Sea Dragon Star below.
The distance between the two sides was only tens of thousands of kiloters. From this distance, the Sea Dragon Star appeared exceptionally large.
The slowly rotating planet allowed one to directly see the power of nature. There are billions of such planets in the cosmos.
As the Buddha said, like the grains of sand in the Ganges, beyond asure. For the vastness of the intelligent life on the Sea Dragon Star, it’s just a grain of sand on the beach.
Whenever this mont ca, Gao Xuan always marveled at the grandeur of nature.
Even if the Golden Sword Saint can cut through a planet with one stroke, in the face of natural power, he is incomparably insignificant.
Standing side by side with Gao Xuan, Hercules also gazed deeply at the Sea Dragon Star.
Hercules had many things he wanted to say, but did not know how to express them.
After all, Gao Xuan was not his confidant, nor his family, let alone his sounding board. So things just couldn’t be confided to this nineteen-year-old young man.
This ti, he led the spear king and reassembled the fleet to the Sea Dragon Star to deter the noble families on the Sea Dragon Star with absolute military force. To clean up the aftermath on the Sea Dragon Star.
Gao Xuan did indeed perform brilliantly, killing off most of the elite of the Han and Yang among the four major families. The remaining people, even if they wanted to resist stubbornly, no longer had the ability.
Even so, Hercules did not enter the Sea Dragon Star. Although he was proud, he did not like taking risks.
With absolute strength overwhelming the opponent, he didn’t need to show personal courage.
The massive reorganized interstellar fleet could monitor all movents from outer space. And dealt the enemy ruthless blows from space.
Hercules could actually let Gao Xuan handle the aftermath, but he didn’t want to do that.
The master of the Sea Emperor didn’t like to always ask for help. This ti, Gao Xuan had already done enough.
In fact, after Muse’s death, he had perceived it. Muse had left a mark on him spiritually after more than a hundred years of infiltration.
Hercules didn’t know which Evil God it was, but he knew there must be an Evil God making trouble on the Sea Dragon Star. This matter surely involved Pan too.
Hercules felt it was tricky, but he still wanted to try to solve the problem completely.
Gao Xuan’s way of resolving things made him very satisfied. It’s just that his wife was killed by Gao Xuan, so he couldn’t directly thank Gao Xuan.
Feeling very complicated, Hercules remained silent for a long ti before finally speaking: "Gao Xuan, you’ve worked hard this ti."
"Being able to do sothing for Uncle is my honor as well."
Gao Xuan was a master at flattering, so when dealing with his future father-in-law, he naturally wanted to maintain a good relationship with him.
He worked hard to get things done without taking all the credit for himself. That way, he wouldn’t get any favors, and instead create a rift with Hercules.
In his previous life, although Gao Xuan was an assassin, he moved between major powers. He relied on his ability to do things and also to interact with people.
Hercules was very satisfied with Gao Xuan’s attitude, this young man was incredibly sensible.
If it was a middle-aged person saying this, it would seem greasy and slick. But Gao Xuan said it with genuine humility. The feeling it gave people was completely different.
Hercules said: "I’ll explain Talos’s matter to the Odin Family. But..."
Hercules felt a bit guilty. He could imagine what the Odin Family’s reaction would be. They certainly wouldn’t believe his explanation and would surely see Gao Xuan as an enemy they must eliminate.
No matter how dangerous the underworld is, Talos, with the Nibelungen Ring, always managed to escape.
Undoubtedly, it was Gao Xuan who killed Talos. Gao Xuan not only had the ability but also the ruthlessness.
Hercules sighed and said: "Long Tyr from the Odin Family is still reasonable and quite forgiving. Wali is rather troubleso.
The most troubleso is Hodder. He is three years older than you and is the most talented genius in the Odin Family, rumored to soon advance to the Gold level. He has a rather extre personality..."
Gao Xuan sighed helplessly: "I have no power or influence, and if others want to make things difficult for , what can I do."
Hercules felt even more embarrassed, "As long as you are in the Sea Emperor Star Realm, no one can touch you."
"In August, I still have to go to the Central Star Realm to participate in the Sword Dao League finals. Besides, I can’t stay in the Sea Emperor Star Realm forever..."
Gao Xuan realized that his future father-in-law was really unreliable. He had done a big thing for him, but he basically couldn’t cover him.
Hercules looked troubled, if Pan hadn’t died, the matter could still barely be suppressed.
But since Pan and Talos were both dead, he had beco an enemy of the Odin Family, and there was no way he could help Gao Xuan solve the problem.
Hercules also wanted to sigh, he was having a hard ti. But he couldn’t explain these to Gao Xuan.
He said: "It’s better you don’t go to the finals. The Odin Family and the Augustus are very close, and the Augustus Clan has strong power in the Central Star Realm. No one can protect you if you go."
Gao Xuan turned his face to Hercules. Although Gao Xuan had his eyes closed, Hercules always felt unable to face Gao Xuan.
He sighed long and said, "This is also for safety. There’s no need for you to risk your life for vanity."
The Augustus lineage holds vast power in the Central Star Realm, much stronger than the combined strength of him and Odin’s factions.
If Augustus really wants to target Gao Xuan, no one can protect him!
Hercules believes Gao Xuan’s talent is unrivaled and his future limitless. There’s no need to take great risks for the fa of the university Sword Dao League.
"I am determined to win the Sword Dao League championship."
Gao Xuan did not explain his reasoning, nor did he need to explain. He rely showed his firm stance to Hercules.
What could Hercules say? He could only say, "I’ll do my best to communicate with the Augustus Clan."
He was sowhat embarrassed as he took out an extrely small black hollow iron ball and handed it over: "This is the chanical War Emperor’s Heart I found."
Gao Xuan casually accepted it. The iron ball was only the size of a cherry, in appearance more like a cherry. Or rather, more like a tiny chanical heart.
The chanical heart, while small, was very heavy, weighing as much as two kilograms.
The interior of the chanical heart was semi-hollow, revealing countless intricate gear structures interlocking with exceptional complexity.
Judging by appearance, the iron ball resembled an extraordinarily precise piece of craftsmanship, or rather a chanical artifact.
With today’s technological advancents, chanical processing can reach the nanoscale level. Creating such a finely crafted machine is not difficult.
However, this chanical heart is clearly not an ordinary chanical artifact.
Not to ntion anything else, the material of the chanical heart is very special.
Black tallic material, neither steel nor any known man-made tal.
Gao Xuan exerted a bit of force to squeeze it, and this small chanical heart was incredibly hard. Even with continued exertion, there was no deformation.
This aspect is very frightening.
Although Gao Xuan’s Power points are only 24, which seems low, that’s relative to his other physical attributes.
A healthy strong young man has Power points of 10. A Power level of 24 is equivalent to 290 tis that of an average strong young man.
Imagine how strong Gao Xuan would be. Even if it were the hardest human-made titanium steel, and if structured like the chanical heart, Gao Xuan could crush it.
Even a solid piece of titanium steel would undergo slight deformation under Gao Xuan’s imnse strength.
Yet, the chanical heart did not deform at all.
Gao Xuan’s Perception can easily reach the nanoscale. Not even a nanoter of deformation occurred, proving the chanical heart’s hardness has reached an incredibly frightening level.
At least at the Golden Level!
Gao Xuan imdiately concluded that this little item is a good marvel.
"Uncle, what is this?"
Hercules smiled, "I saw that you were very interested in the chanical Iron Cicada, so I checked the family’s records. I discovered the chanical Iron Cicada originates from ancient chanical civilization ruins. This chanical War Emperor’s Heart should be paired with the chanical Iron Cicada, so I spent money to buy it back..."
Hercules was very proud. He wouldn’t give sothing to Gao Xuan without getting rewarded. He had noticed Gao Xuan took the chanical Iron Cicada, and though he didn’t know what Gao Xuan intended to do, a gift ought to be suited to the recipient’s taste.
Checking the family records, and then through the Sage Authority, he found the related information and discovered this chanical War Emperor’s Heart.
Therefore, he spent lavishly to acquire this chanical War Emperor’s Heart.
Previously, Hercules hadn’t paid attention to the chanical Iron Cicada because there were too many such marvels at ho. He didn’t have the ti to sort them out one by one.
Besides, these incomplete marvels are very troubleso.
Like this chanical War Emperor’s Heart, it was only found through the Sage Authority. For this, he paid Nuwa ten thousand Points, which wasn’t a trivial amount.
Buying the chanical War Emperor’s Heart also cost a huge sum.
Even for soone as extravagant as Hercules, spending so much money was painful. Naturally, being a man of integrity, he wouldn’t cheapen the gesture by telling Gao Xuan how hard it was to obtain, or how expensive it was.
Hercules said, "The full na of the chanical Iron Cicada is actually the chanical War Emperor, and it should co in three pieces: the chanical War Emperor, the War Emperor’s Heart, and the War Emperor’s Soul. But just having the chanical War Emperor’s Heart isn’t enough... "
Gao Xuan nodded and smiled, "Uncle is thoughtful, this is truly a great gift."
Honestly speaking, Hercules being so considerate was quite a pleasant surprise for Gao Xuan.
That the chanical Iron Cicada was actually dubbed the chanical War Emperor, well, that na had a nice ring to it.
Gao Xuan had taken the chanical Iron Cicada casually, without any particular purpose in mind.
Now, having obtained the War Emperor’s Heart, his interest was greatly piqued.
This thing should be quite formidable, well worth the effort to invest more energy into it...
