Chapter 307 - I'm Back, Time for Vengeance
Bai Ya was aware of the power of the gods from the battle five hundred years ago.
Therefore, she did not want Ling Jiu to take risks.
She could see that Ling Jiu was still a stellar lifeform. How could he contend with the gods of the three major pantheons?
As the two of them had been together for a long time, their minds were in sync. Hence, by looking into her eyes, Ling Jiu knew exactly what Bai Ya was thinking.
He realized that his girl had underestimated him. 'Well, this is understandable since I am indeed a stellar lifeform, not even a galactic lifeform.'
Bai Ya did not want him to take risks with this kind of superficial strength.
"My dear, do you know how Auguland—the place that I visited this round—is like?" Ling Jiu asked with a smile.
Bai Ya shook her head.
"Auguland is also a world dominated by gods!"
"There are dozens of pantheons, from small to large ones. In total, there are thousands of gods. Eleven of them are the Prime Gods with the strength comparable to super-cl.u.s.tered lifeform's. As for gods with the strength of galactic lifeforms, there are about four to five thousand of them!" Ling Jiu said smilingly."
"Eleven super-cl.u.s.tered lifeforms?" Bai Ya's facial expression changed. "That is just too powerful!"
Although the stellar-level bigshots from Earth were badly battered as they were hunted by the gods from three major pantheons, they did at least gain something from it.
They knew the pantheons' strength very well!
There were three ranks in a pantheon: the True God, the Prime God and the King of Gods
The strength of the True God was more or less the same as of the galactic lifeform.
The Prime God had reached the pinnacle of galactic lifeform.
Although none of them had faced the Kings of Gods before, Bai Ya guessed that their strength was definitely the same as super-cl.u.s.tered lifeform's since their rank was above the Prime Gods!
However, she could not tell how strong they were, to be exact.
"There are eleven kings of gods at Auguland? Four to five thousand True Gods and Prime Gods? Just how terrifying is this strength?"
"The strength of the pantheons of Auguland is terrifying. And that is exactly why the Merpeople elders exiled me to Auguland. They thought that I would get stranded there forever, or perhaps even get killed by the gods and buried there!"
Ling Jiu smiled. "But it's a pity that before I left, I had wiped out all the gods in Auguland!"
"What?" Bai Ya was shocked. "You've wiped out all the gods in Auguland?"
"Yes!" Ling Jiu nodded. "They are still confined in the battleship Leoux now!"
"D*mn!" Bai Ya could not help but swear.
"So, you don't have to worry about my safety. No matter how strong the gods of the three major pantheons are, can they surpass the gods on Auguland?"
Ling Jiu crackled. "I'll ask Leoux to open the wormhole between Auguland and Earth, and let's go there later!"
"Sure!" Bai Ya nodded repeatedly, tears flickering in her eyes. She was very excited.
In the past thousand years, Bai Ya and the rest had practiced cultivation at Whitehole-2 like they were before. However, the situation was different from the time back then. Previously, they had come to Whitehole-2 on their own initiative. But now, they did so because they had been chased out of Earth like stray dogs.
The meaning was completely different!
They all wanted to go back for vengeance!
They all wanted to return to Earth!
However, all that they yearned for could only become a wild wish because the wormhole had been destroyed.
The two of them then spent some intimate time together for a while before meeting Ling Jiu's family.
When Ling Jiu's parents—Yang Su and Ling Tianci—saw Ling Jiu, they burst into tears. Ling Tianci shouted in Ling Jiu's face, "You rascal, you still know to come back! Do you have any idea how long we've been waiting for you?"
"Dad, I was wrong. I promise that this won't happen again!" Ling Jiu cried and laughed at the same time.
"I will break your legs if you do it again!" Ling Tianci scolded his son with teary eyes.
"There will be no next time!" Ling Jiu smiled bitterly.
"Brother!"
Ling'er and Xiaotong ran into Ling Jiu's arms and began to cry.
Ling Jiu had not seen his younger sisters for a thousand years. Both of them had grown into beautiful ladies. Not only did they not age a bit, they had become more m.a.t.u.r.e and s.e.xy.
As galactic lifeforms, they had a life span of ten thousand years. A thousand years was only one tenth of it. If their age were to be converted to ordinary human years, they would be ten years old at most.
The family reunion was a truly happy event. After having some small talks, Ling Jiu's family asked him his whereabouts in the past thousand years, and he let them know everything.
Like how Bai Ya had reacted earlier, his family was shocked. Ling'er said in disbelief, "Brother, there are so many gods in Auguland yet you managed to catch them all?"
"Of course!"
"Brother, you're amazing!"
Xiaotong was excited, her eyes sparkling with little stars. "Since you are this strong, Brother, can we return to Earth?"
"Of course!" Ling Jiu gave an affirmative nod.
"Great! We can finally go back!" All of them were very happy. They had never forgotten their home planet—Earth, even after staying at Whitehole-2 for a thousand years.
It was their forever home!
"We must retaliate fiercely when we go back this time and make those pompous gods face their end!" Ling'er said angrily.
"Don't worry, I shall avenge every single atrocity they committed!" Ling Jiu responded smilingly with cold eyes.
"Brother Ling, I heard you are back!"
Suddenly, a voice filled with pleasant surprise came from outside the hall. And the next moment a bald guy and a serious looking middle-aged man rushed into the hall. It was Vulcan and Emperor Might.
Behind them was a group of people. These people were all the bigshots from Earth. There were more than 40 of them.
"Brother Vulcan!"
"Chairman!"
"Everyone!"
Ling Jiu greeted each of them.
"You are back for real!" Vulcan was so excited, he immediately gave Ling Jiu a big hug.
"I was so worried. I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought that something might have happened to you! It's good that you are back now!"
"Ling Jiu, welcome back!" Emperor Might was an outwardly cold but inwardly warm-hearted person. Therefore, despite being excited too, he did not say much.
Ling Jiu's return was a joyous occasion.
After that, instead of going back for cultivation training, all of them had a long chat in Ling Jiu's airship.
They talked about Ling Jiu's experience over the past thousand years, what happened to Earth back then, their cultivation training, and their plans to return to Earth.
After a thousand years, everyone's strength had improved greatly!
All the bigshots from Earth desperately wanted to return to their homeland and take vengeance. Hence, they had given up the course of evolving a perfect stellar system and chosen to evolve an ordinary stellar system instead.
As a result, they could make great improvement in short period.
Among the bigshots, Emperor Might and Vulcan had attained the pinnacle of galactic lifeform.
And the rest—almost all of them—had grown into galactic lifeforms.
In other words, all the 43 stellar-level bigshots who had retreated to Whitehole-2 together back then were now galactic lifeforms!
"Brother Ling, now that you are back, when shall we return to Earth?"
Vulcan was impatient; he could not wait to ask. He had been aware of Ling Jiu's remarkable feat in Auguland for some time, and he was clear about Ling Jiu's strength. So he eagerly wanted to go back to take revenge.
Others were also looking at Ling Jiu with anticipation in their eyes. Earth was their homeland. No matter how long and how far they wandered away from it, they should eventually go back.
"I want to return to Earth soon too!" Ling Jiu replied with a resigned sigh, "But Earth is too far away from Whitehole-2. So it will take some time to create a wormhole, not just one or two days. So please be patient!"
