How dare you provoke the supreme authority

"No problem, it is indeed my stuff."

Lu Xiaobai smiled and closed the security box again.

"That's good."

The man smiled slightly and said enthusiastically,

"Could I trouble Young Master Lu to give me a five-star review..."

"Is there a five-yuan cashback?"

"Ah?"

The man's expression stiffened, freezing on the spot.

"Just kidding..."

Lu Xiaobai grinned and showed the virtual interface on his smart chip watch, which already displayed a five-star review.

"Thank you, Young Master Lu."

"It's nothing."

Lu Xiaobai took the security box and left with a face full of smiles.

As a direct descendant of the Lu family, he had wanted to learn the Lu Family Body Refining Method for a long time, but unfortunately, his Basic Body Refining Method had not reached level four, failing to meet the prerequisite for learning it.

Now that everything was ready, he was naturally impatient.

This was one of humanity's top-tier body refining methods; its effects were vastly superior to the Basic Body Refining Method!

Just based on the level cap alone, the Lu Family Body Refining Method completely crushed the basic version, as the former boasted a maximum limit of a whopping fifteen levels!

"I'll learn it as soon as I get back."

Lu Xiaobai thought to himself.

However, just as he pushed open the doors of the Feiyu Logistics building, he was bumped into by a skinny boy rushing head-on.

"S... sorry."

The boy quickly apologized, saying anxiously,

"I'm in a hurry to pick up a package."

Lu Xiaobai frowned slightly but didn't say anything, heading straight to his hovercar.

Ten minutes later.

He arrived home smoothly, rubbing his hands together with a chuckle,

"Lu Family Body Refining Method, here I come!"

However, when he gleefully opened the five-star security box, his expression instantly changed drastically, and his eyes filled with rage.

The box was completely empty. The Star Skill Stone branded with the Lu Family Body Refining Method had vanished!

"How is this possible?!"

He turned the security box upside down, but still found nothing.

In an instant, he thought of the little boy who had bumped into him just as he left the Feiyu Logistics building.

That was the only person besides himself who had touched the security box!

"Stealing from the Lu family, he really doesn't know how to spell death!"

His eyes burned with anger, losing their usual peace.

Right at that moment,

Text appeared before his eyes:

One-star task issued: Find the missing Star Skill Stone.

How dare they provoke the mighty. Teach him a lesson, a severe lesson.

"..."

Looking at the text in front of him, Lu Xiaobai felt a slight wave of joy, but he quickly became surprised.

"Provoke the mighty... Does this thing actually know my background?"

He raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting this.

He originally thought this cheat system didn't know his background, otherwise the tasks it issued wouldn't be of that difficulty. But looking at it now, was his guess wrong?

Or perhaps it didn't know at first, but figured it out recently?

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaobai spoke to the empty air in front of him,

"Buddy, you're not alive, are you?"

However, he received no response.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaobai didn't dwell on it any longer and muttered,

"Forget it, never mind. I'll just finish the task and get the Star Points first."

He wasn't worried. After all, even though he was a direct descendant of the Lu family with a transcendent status in the human world, this cheat was so overpowered that it proved it had an extraordinary origin. It definitely wasn't a product of the human world, so there was absolutely no reason for it to harm him...

At this moment,

Lu Xiaobai made up his mind to retrieve the Star Skill Stone at all costs. He immediately said to the white-bearded butler,

"Lao Hu, help me find the phone number of the Mayor of Starlight City. The Star Skill Stone for my Lu Family Body Refining Method was stolen!"

Upon hearing this, the white-bearded butler's eyes instantly flashed red, and he quickly rattled off a number.

His core chip stored the phone numbers of all the important figures on the Ancestral Planet. Not only did he have the numbers of various mayors, but he even had the private number of the Ancestral Planet's Lord. However, he could only disclose it to Lu Xiaobai under special circumstances.

As soon as Lu Xiaobai heard the number, he immediately dialed it using his smart chip watch.

Before long,

The hologram of a middle-aged man in a suit appeared.

"Hello Mayor, I am Lu Xiaobai of the Lu family!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression changed instantly. His attitude immediately warmed up, and he said with a smile,

"Little Lu, no need to be so formal. Just call me Uncle Liu. Is there something you need?"

Starlight Middle School had recently exposed Lu Xiaobai's identity. As the Mayor of Starlight City, he naturally received the news immediately, though he hadn't taken the initiative to approach him for anything.

"My Lu family's body refining method was stolen."

A flash of anger appeared in Lu Xiaobai's eyes, and he immediately recounted the incident.

Mayor Liu Yuanlei's heart instantly jolted. His expression became incredibly solemn as he promised,

"Little Lu, don't worry. Even if I have to turn all of Starlight City upside down, I will find this person for you!"

Lu Xiaobai said, "The person dared to steal in front of the Myriad Courier Station, which is full of surveillance cameras. I'm afraid they wore a special mechanical mask to hide their true appearance."

"That's not a big problem. I will have people inspect the entirety of Starlight City one by one!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle Liu."

Lu Xiaobai wasn't worried at all that the other party was just making an empty promise.

Once the news that the Lu family's body refining method was lost in Starlight City spread out, this mayor would be in massive trouble...

Lu Xiaobai hung up the call and then said,

"Lao Hu, give me the phone number of the general manager of Feiyu Logistics in Starlight City as well."

Soon,

He informed the people at Feiyu Company about the incident, heavily emphasizing that the Star Skill Stone was lost from inside a closed five-star security box.

As soon as these words came out, the general manager, Zhong Ding, had a drastic change in expression and also became extremely cautious.

This meant that their five-star security box had a vulnerability!

Lu Xiaobai wasn't lying; he had indeed closed the five-star security box. It was precisely because of his trust in the thing that he was so careless at the time, allowing the little boy to succeed so easily.

"I don't believe you can escape!"

At this moment, Lu Xiaobai narrowed his eyes. The panic vanished from his face as he quietly waited for the results.

Meanwhile,

The entirety of Starlight City entered a state of martial law. Countless combat robots wearing special uniforms patrolled the ground, their red-flashing eyes scanning and inspecting everything.

At the same time, the Security Bureau responsible for capturing criminals was fully mobilized. Hovercars blared piercing sirens, shuttling back and forth high above the city.

In addition to this, the people from Feiyu Logistics Company dispatched a massive number of reconnaissance robotic flying bugs, searching back and forth across the city's skies!

Such a tense atmosphere made all the citizens feel uneasy. Not knowing what was going on, they could only return to their homes, with some even thinking that the Star Bug Race was invading...

At this very moment,

Inside a cheap rental room in the slums of Starlight City,

A skinny boy looked out the window with unease at the various hovercars constantly flying by, the panic in his heart reaching its peak.

Although he hadn't received any concrete news, he had a premonition in his heart.

They were definitely looking for him!

"Is this Star Skill Stone really that important? Just who exactly is that person!"

The boy held the Star Skill Stone containing the Lu Family Body Refining Method in his hand, a myriad of complex emotions swirling in his eyes.

He never imagined that a single move on his part would trigger such a massive uproar...
