“Chen Dong, I’m warning you—better put me back right now. The charge of harming the White-Clad Priest alone is enough to have your ancestral grave dug up and desecrated!”
Facing Luo Ku’s threat, you replied with a smirk.
“Sorry, my ancestral grave isn’t here. Also... my name’s Chen Yi, damn it!”
After another round of heavy hits, Luo Ku finally fell silent.
Having dealt him a blow, you then gave him a jab.
“You know, I was injured and lost my memory before, so a lot of things are still unclear to me. If you can clear up my doubts, I might just let you go.
Besides, you’re right—I’m just a mere mortal. No matter how powerful I am, how could I possibly stand against the vast Winged God Sect?”
“Alright, you do have some sense,” Luo Ku admitted. “Ask away. When it comes to anything on this Fubao Star, there’s nothing I don’t know.”
“Why do you say that the human race is a bunch of sinners?”
“Because their ancestors committed grave crimes across the universe and were exiled...”
You punched him mid-sentence.
“What the hell are you doing?!”
“Just telling the truth.”
“That’s the truth right there!”
Seeing you raise your fist again, Luo Ku instinctively dodged, stammering.
“Okay, okay! The whole ‘descendants of criminals’ thing is actually unverified—there’s no historical record to back it up. But I don’t know the exact reasons either. It’s just that generation after generation, humans have been treated this way. We’re simply following the traditions of our ancestors!”
“Are humans treated like this on every planet in the universe?”
“That, I’m not sure about. I’ve only stayed on Fubao Star and Lingwei Star. The situation for humans on Lingwei Star is a bit better, but they’re still considered the lowest caste.”
You asked him what Lingwei Star was.
Luo Ku explained.
Fubao Star is a third-class star, completely devoid of any immortal energy. No one can cultivate there.
But the Winged God Sect is a massive organization controlling multiple planets. They allow members stationed on Fubao Star to periodically travel to the nearby second-class star, Lingwei Star, to cultivate.
So every position has two people rotating—one stationed on Fubao Star, the other cultivating on Lingwei Star.
“Commoners on a third-class star are the easiest to control because they have no way to leave the planet. And since we’re cultivators, we can manipulate them however we want.
On a second-class star, it’s a different story.
You never know when some prodigy with a sky-high destiny will emerge, finding a crack to breathe under layers of oppression, and eventually even stand before you.
But it doesn’t matter. Our Winged God Sect has lasted over ten thousand years.
On the planets we control, even if rebellions break out occasionally, they’re always crushed in the end.
So, I advise you not to oppose us. What you’ve seen on Fubao Star is just the tip of the iceberg.”
Your face darkened, but you suppressed the urge to beat him to death and continued with your questions.
“How can I leave this planet?”
“First, you need a starship. After all, you can’t yet cross the void with your body alone.
Next, you have to go to the starport so the starship can launch and enter the starway.
Once the starship is in the starway, you just set your destination on the star map onboard to reach your target planet.”
“The scale of the universe is astronomical—distances between planets are unimaginably vast. Am I really supposed to spend my entire life trapped inside a starship?”
“You don’t understand the function of the star routes at all.”
“Then why don’t you explain it to me?”
“I don’t really get it either, but one thing’s for sure: when you’re on the star routes, the distance between planets isn’t such a big deal.”
“Chen Yi, I see you’re quite formidable in battle, and you don’t seem very old. You have great potential. If you’re willing to work for me, I can recommend you to Lingwei Star. How about it?”
You gave a half-hearted reply and kept questioning him, eager to learn more about the Real World.
You gained a lot of information.
Including the identity of that old hag from before.
“She’s about a meter tall, very old, can fly, wears a big black robe, and carries a snake-headed staff.”
“You’re talking about the Duobao Tonglao, right?”
“You know her well?”
“Not really. She’s a famous master of refining artifacts. She was invited by the Grand Bishop to craft a spiritual treasure for us. I only met her once.”
You couldn’t help but laugh at him.
“Aren’t you all supposed to despise humans the most? So why did you invite a human artifact refiner?”
Luo Ku smiled awkwardly.
“Most humans are indeed useless, but I have to admit there’s a small group among them who actually have some skill.”
“Where is that old hag now?”
“If she’s not on a business trip, she lives on Huoguang Star in the neighboring Shengyang System. What, are you planning to find her? Beg for her protection? Haha, forget it. She has no loyalty to her own kind—she only cares about profit.”
That much didn’t need Luo Ku to remind you.
After all, she’s a celebrity. She’s stolen a few magical artifacts already—this old hag is the embodiment of ruthless opportunism.
You reached out and stroked Luo Ku’s wing.
Luo Ku blushed and glanced at you.
“I’ve noticed since a while ago… why do you keep touching my wings like that?”
“Don’t mind it, just keep answering my questions.”
While interrogating him, you also kept refreshing your Winged Tribe talents.
The Winged Tribe’s talent, “Five Elements Affinity,” basically boosts cultivation speed.
That’s why Liu Ying said the Winged Tribe are all geniuses.
Each of them is born with a natural affinity for one of the five elements, which accelerates their comprehension and cultivation of techniques and divine arts.
However, their talent is similar to humans’—it’s assigned randomly and fixed at birth.
So you kept discarding and acquiring talents, trying to roll the special-grade Fire Element Affinity you wanted.
After relentless effort, you nearly plucked all the feathers off one of Luo Ku’s wings, but finally managed to get the special-grade Fire Element Affinity you desired!
This means that from now on, whenever you cultivate fire-element techniques, your innate aptitude is effectively enhanced!
Previously, you had a high-grade root bone (seventh-rank Immortal Root). With the special-grade Fire Element Affinity, your future aptitude is comparable to a middle-grade root bone (sixth-rank Immortal Root), or even a top-grade root bone (fifth-rank Immortal Root)!
Having asked all the questions, you realized keeping Luo Ku around was just a burden.
You found a random spot and, using your enhanced knight’s spear, stabbed the already severely injured Luo Ku through the heart, hanging him on a tree.
Luo Ku died with resentment.
“You—you… you broke your promise!”
“You think you’re worthy?”
The group of miners burst into applause.
During the escape with your followers, you used the *Divine Weapon Revelation* to enchant over a hundred sets of weapons and armor that had been confiscated.
The heavy armor became lighter and more durable—so much so that even ordinary people could wear it comfortably, with significantly enhanced defensive capabilities.
The knights’ lances and swords grew sharper and tougher; with every swing, fierce energy radiated outward, greatly increasing their destructive power. They even gained a limited ranged attack ability.
From the original eight hundred miners, you selected over a hundred young, strong, and mentally sharp individuals, equipping them with these hundred sets of magically enhanced weapons and armor.
The enchantments from *Divine Weapon Revelation* last for a certain period. You instructed them to come to you for a re-enchantment whenever they felt something was amiss.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.

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.
