Lin Xi held the communicator, "Director, the Calamity has been resolved."
"Yes, I know. I can't believe it was resolved so quickly." The Director on the other end of the communicator was filled with unbelievable ecstasy.
"Was it that mysterious man?"
"Yes." Lin Xi nodded. "He has already left. I transferred the Alliance Coins to him, as well as the highest authority for the hilltop villa... But Director, the funds for the subsequent resettlement and repair, as well as his activity expenses, will definitely not be enough."
"I estimate... we need at least fifty million."
"Fifty million?" the Director said without hesitation. "Fifty million is easy! Wait, I'll write a report to headquarters right now and apply for a special allocation of fifty million!"
"For an existence of this level, Lin Xi, you must keep a close eye on him. Don't provoke him, and satisfy all his requests, no matter what they are, as long as they are harmless to District Seven."
"Understood!" Lin Xi quickly replied.
On the other side, after hanging up the communicator, the Director immediately dialed a new coordinate.
"Hello, this is District Seven... Yes, a Calamity appeared, and then it was resolved by a mysterious person. For this new target, we need a grant of assistance..."
"Yes, yes, yes, actually five hundred million is enough. District Seven will cover the rest ourselves, so we won't bother the Star Domain Federation..."

Meanwhile, Ye Chuan was led by a middle-aged man into a hovercar heading towards the hilltop villa.
The hovercar drove smoothly on the high-altitude particle track, and the city outside the window was recovering at an astonishing speed.
Countless palm-sized silver nanobots hovered like a swarm of bees over the destroyed blocks.
Then they began to print walls—
A single sweep and the damaged areas were repaired.
The streets that were originally full of broken walls and debris had mostly recovered in just over ten minutes.
The smashed shop signs automatically lit up, and the goods in the display windows became intact again under the repair of the nanobots.
"Interesting. What kind of technology is this?"
"This is the Federation's particle repair technology," the middle-aged man explained respectfully.
"The nanobots can restore things to their pre-damaged state based on the archives in the city's database. Even household furniture and appliances have memory particle backups. They can all be fully restored in about an hour, exactly the same as before."
"This technology was developed many years ago to deal with natural disasters and monsters."
He paused, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness, "It's just that... the dead cannot be brought back to life."
Ye Chuan nodded, looking at the scene outside the window with great interest.
This technology was indeed quite interesting.
It was similar to the renovation system of his Myriad Realms Apartment, just not as advanced.
"Can these nanobots repair living creatures?" Ye Chuan asked casually.
"Yes," the middle-aged man nodded. "They can repair severed limbs, but it takes some time to restore the nerves."
As they spoke, the hovercar arrived at the top of the mountain.
It was a sprawling single-family villa situated on a platform at the peak, backed by a lush forest, with a front view overlooking the night scenery of the entire District Seven.
The architectural style of the villa was minimalist futuristic, constructed entirely of silver-white energy alloy, with its surface covered by a faint blue invisible defense barrier.
"Mr. Ye, this is your residence." The middle-aged man opened the car door and said respectfully.
"All the facilities in the villa are brand new, and daily necessities have been prepared. This is your exclusive butler robot, designated 073. You can give it any orders if you have any needs."
A snow-white robot with a round head and large eyes glided over, bowed slightly to Ye Chuan, and said in a soft electronic voice:
"Hello, Master. I am Holy Sword X-brand 073. I am glad to serve you."
"Mm," Ye Chuan nodded.
"Then I won't disturb your rest," the middle-aged man said respectfully. "If you need anything, you can contact Captain Lin Xi at any time or just instruct 073 directly. We will be on standby for you 24 hours a day."
After speaking, he left in the hovercar.
Ye Chuan walked into the villa.
The interior decoration of the villa was minimalist yet luxurious. The living room had a huge holographic floor-to-ceiling window that could be switched to any scenery at any time.
In the open kitchen, smart kitchenware was automatically cleaning itself, and the refrigerator was stuffed with various ingredients and drinks.
There were three bedrooms on the second floor, each equipped with an independent bathroom and a walk-in closet.
"This decoration style is not bad. I'll copy it for my home." Ye Chuan plopped down on the soft large bed and stretched.
He picked up the silver terminal Lin Xi had given him and tapped the screen lightly with his fingertip.
The terminal activated instantly, projecting a faint blue holographic screen.
The interface on the screen was concise and clear, featuring multiple sections such as communication, shopping, news...
Ye Chuan first clicked on the news section.
The headline prominently read "District Seven Successfully Defends Against Level Nine Calamity Abyssal Touch, Nameless Hero Destroys Enemy with One Finger!", accompanied below by a blurry surveillance screenshot where only a black silhouette could be seen hovering in mid-air, pointing a finger at a massive monster.
The comment section had already exploded:
"Holy crap! Instant kill a Level Nine Calamity with one finger? What kind of godly strength is this?"
"I was there at the scene! It was truly too shocking! One second I thought I was going to die, and the next second the monster was gone!"
"Who is this big shot? How come I've never heard of him? Could it be some hidden old monster?"
Ye Chuan closed the news and clicked on the cultivation section.
It detailed the extraordinary systems of the New Century Federation—
Various cultivation routes such as esper abilities, super martial arts, magic, immortal cultivation, and technology did not conflict with each other. Many powerhouses cultivated multiple systems concurrently.
So Ye Chuan even saw people piloting mechas while casting magic in space, and others using the Return of Ten Thousand Swords before utilizing teleportation magic for remote assassinations.
The power systems were integrated but not chaotic.
Ye Chuan then flipped through the technology section and saw many research reports on space-time rifts and cross-dimensional technology.
However, these reports only scratched the surface; the truly core technologies were all blocked.
He searched for a long time but couldn't find any information about Ke Ning.
That made sense. Since Ke Ning could build a time machine, he must be a top-tier scientist.
"And he might not even be in this star domain. According to what's written, the level of this star domain is quite low."
This infinite star domain had various gods: human gods, beast gods, outer gods, mechanical gods—
It was a super large map that exceeded Tianxuan, Aether, and the real world. Under those various light-year units, Ye Chuan only felt a bit dizzy.
"But only in such a world could one find a way for those transmigrators to locate parallel worlds and return home, right?" Ye Chuan pondered.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

"Hypnosis? Oh, it succeeded, my dear Master." "Only this time, it's my turn to hypnotize you."
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
