533 Redeye’s Deal
The couple temporarily left the virtual world and returned to their personal space.
“Jingming, you previously said that Redeye is related to a Paramount,” Li Miaomiao said. “Is there a background more powerful than that?”
Xu Jingming sat down. “The three Paramounts have lived for a long ti, so I originally thought… that Senior Brother Redeye was a descendant of a Paramount. Due to his outstanding talent, he received the grooming of a Paramount.”
“Isn’t it?” Li Miaomiao asked.
Xu Jingming answered, “He’s the child of one of the three Paramounts, the owner of Spaceti Island!”
“Her child? Her biological child?” Li Miaomiao pressed.
“Yeah.” Xu Jingming nodded.
Li Miaomiao found it unbelievable. The biological child of a Paramount?
“Redeye isn’t even a thousand years old. In other words, he was born soti in the past thousand years?” Li Miaomiao whispered.
Xu Jingming said, “Of our human race’s three Paramounts, the dean and the one from Eternal Academy didn’t have children after becoming Paramounts. However, the owner of Spaceti Island is different… She has children every few million years.”
And in this era, the only child alive on Spaceti Island is Senior Brother Redeye. Xu Jingming had a complicated expression.
Li Miaomiao exclaid in surprise, “This ans he has a loftier status than the ordinary bloodline descendants.”
Xu Jingming said softly, “Miaomiao, do you know why the owner of Spaceti Island has children born every few million years?”
“Why?” she asked.
“Because this is an experint,” Xu Jingming explained. “The owner of Spaceti Island once said that she wanted to try… giving birth to a high-dinsional lifeform with a high-dinsional body.”
“If a high-dinsional lifeform can be born, the cosmic human race can have a group of high-dinsional lifeforms and beco the strongest race in the universe.”
“Most Origin lifeforms know about this,” Xu Jingming said. “Just don’t spread it.”
Li Miaomiao nodded.
“The Paramount realm possesses unimaginable abilities. The Progenitor of the Hellions… created the entire Hellion species. Our dean also created Secretary General Blacksky. The one from Eternal Academy also created the Eternal Guard.” Xu Jingming sighed. “Although it’s difficult for the owner of Spaceti Island to give birth to generations of high-dinsional lifeforms, it’s not impossible.”
Senior Brother Redeye was clearly one of the ‘children’ in this plan. Clearly, it didn’t succeed. Senior Brother Redeye could only be considered to have easily beco an Origin lifeform. He is still far from the Paramount realm.
Li Miaomiao listened.
Now that she was in charge of the Pearwood Group, she had learned many secrets about the many civilizations in the universe. When she chatted with her husband, she also learned many secrets about the Hellions, Void Celestials, and humans.
It was an eye-opener.
******
Three days later, Senior Brother Redeye—together with his girlfriend, Qi Xiao—invited Xu Jingming and the others to a banquet.
“Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters.” Redeye looked like a young man in reality as he smiled at everyone. “Let introduce you—this is my girlfriend, Qi Xiao. I even troubled Junior Brother Wu Ming to help tie the knot.”
“I was just a ssenger.” Xu Jingming sat there and smiled.
“I have to thank Junior Brother Wu Ming.” Qi Xiao smiled a little reservedly. After all, everyone present was a peerless genius. However, her partner, Redeye, was very outstanding, and his background allowed him to do whatever he wanted among the cosmic humans.
Gu Shan watched and smiled. “Why? Are you getting married?”
Redeye and Qi Xiao looked at each other.
“Yeah.” Redeye smiled and nodded. “Yes, I plan on settling the paperwork in a few days.”
“I just gave you a congratulatory gift for becoming an Origin lifeform, and now, you want to prepare a wedding gift?” Moyu said. “You’ve received too many gifts, right?”
“It can’t be helped; I’m poor.” Redeye said, “My irresponsible mother didn’t give money, so I could only think of ways to save up.”
Nobody present dared to mutter.
Redeye’s mother was the owner of Spaceti Island. Who dared to speak ill of her?
“Have a seat,” Gu Shan urged. He raised his glass and smiled. “Back when the eight of us gathered, four of us have beco Origin lifeforms in the blink of an eye. The remaining four of you have to work hard. Monina, you’re considered the eldest senior sister now. You have to work hard!”
“I find it very difficult.” Monina lowered her head without any confidence. “Junior Brother tal Feather and Junior Sister Kabuya will probably surpass and beco Origin lifeforms first. The only thing I’m confident in is being faster than Junior Brother Azurescale.”
Azurescale was stunned for a mont before nodding. “I’ve deduced that I will likely be the last to beco an Origin lifeform. It’s also possible that… I won’t beco an Origin lifeform.”
How sad.
Xu Jingming felt so pity for his Senior Brother Azurescale. People had different speeds on their evolutionary paths, but they were confident in becoming an Origin lifeform. However, Azurescale’s ntal strength improved slower and slower after reaching the limit of Lv. 8. It beca very difficult for him to reach 10,000.
“You’re in the sa batch as us…” Redeye said. “I still want the eight of us to gather again in 10,000 years.”
“Don’t be discouraged,” Gu Shan said. “As long as you improve a little every year, you will eventually reach the threshold of an Origin lifeform.”
Azurescale raised his glass with anticipation in his eyes. “Alright, let’s et again in 10,000 years.”
One had to beco an Origin lifeform to have a chance of living past 10,000 years.
Wu Ming and Redeye were in the sa batch as him… all of them peerless figures. He naturally had to do his best.
…
The gathering ended.
Redeye invited Gu Shan, Moyu, and Xu Jingming to his personal space.
“Senior Brother Gu Shan, Senior Sister Moyu, Junior Brother Wu Ming, have a seat first.” Redeye sat down and warmly poured them wine. “I’ve had very few friends since I was a child, and less than ten have beco Origin lifeforms. You are three of them.”
“This wine isn’t bad.” Gu Shan picked it up and tasted it. Senior Sister Moyu and Xu Jingming were also tasting the wine.
“It’s better than the wine in my personal space,” Xu Jingming praised.
Redeye sat with a smile and held a wine glass. “Most Origin lifeforms know that I’m actually a test subject.”
Xu Jingming and the others were slightly stunned.
“In the more than 800 years since I was born, I’ve only seen my mother three tis,” Redeye said. “I had mories of my birth. The second ti we t, I had just been recruited by the Primordial Research Institute. The third ti we t… was three days ago, when I beca an Origin lifeform.”
...
“After three etings, I’ve long realized that I’m a test subject. Didn’t she publicly say that she wanted to give birth to a high-dinsional lifeform?” Redeye said. “And I’m clearly a failure.”
The three tis he t his mother were terrible mories.
Redeye couldn’t sense any motherly love. He felt that it was a form of inspection—a test subject’s inspection.
“Junior Brother Redeye,” Gu Shan said, “I believe your mother cares about you, but she’s a high-dinsional lifeform. You can’t understand her at all.”
“I don’t understand her?” Redeye was stunned as he looked at Gu Shan. “Senior Brother Gu Shan, do you know what she said to three days ago?”
Gu Shan, Moyu, and Xu Jingming listened.
“She said… Child, I’ll et you again the day you beco a cosmic legend. Otherwise, this will be the last ti we et,” Redeye repeated and scoffed. “The last ti we et in this life? This is what a high-dinsional lifeform thinks? It’s really sothing I can’t comprehend.”
“Beco a cosmic legend?”
“There are only seven cosmic legends in the 34 cosmic sectors of the entire cosmic human race,” Redeye comnted. “How can I beco a cosmic legend? Perhaps from her point of view, her experintal subject can beco a cosmic legend! It ans that she’s one step closer to giving birth to a high-dinsional lifeform. That makes even more valuable as a test subject. Only then will it be worth her ti to see again?”
Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.
To the owner of Spaceti Island, Redeye was only an experint she would carry out every few million years. She watched Redeye grow until he reached the end of his lifespan, just like her previous children.
...
But to Redeye, that was his mother! His only family in the world!
Becoming an Origin lifeform was a joyous occasion, but the words she chose made Redeye despair… If he didn’t beco a cosmic legend, would this be the last ti they would et? How could Redeye not be resentful?
“I heard that the three Paramounts are very busy and are working hard in high-dinsional space,” Moyu comforted. “They are working hard for the entire human race, so she can rarely et you.”
“The three of them are the foundation of our entire cosmic human race,” Xu Jingming agreed.
After experiencing the conflict between the species, he knew very well that personal feelings were nothing in the face of the fate of the entire species.
If the three Paramounts couldn’t ward off the intruders, the entire human race would be in danger of falling into the dark ages again. When that happened, how many people would die?
“She’s great, but she’s also heartless.”
Redeye said, “Let’s not talk about it! You’re my friends, so I want to make a deal with you.”
“What deal?” Xu Jingming, Gu Shan, and Moyu were surprised.
“Before my mother left, she threw so gifts,” Redeye said. “These might be the last gifts I’ll receive in my life… from her.”
After all, they had to beco cosmic legends if they wanted to et again.
“I’ve taken a look at these gifts. They’re indeed very precious,” Redeye remarked. “Qi Xiao and I will get married soon, and I do need money. Therefore, I plan on selling so of the gifts.”
Gu Shan imdiately said, “Those are gifts from your mother.”
“She said that it’s up to ,” Redeye replied. “Moreover, I plan on selling Spaceti Star Sand. This kind of cosmic treasure is useless after being used once or twice, and I have a full bag of Spaceti Star Sand. What’s the point of keeping it?”
“Spaceti Star Sand?” Xu Jingming, Gu Shan, and Moyu’s eyes lit up.
They had all heard of it.
The three top factions each had their own wonders and treasures. For example, Spaceti Star Sand was only occasionally produced on Spaceti Island. Typically, it was shared by the top powerhouses on Spaceti Island! If mbers of other top factions wanted to buy it, they had to pay a higher price or even use sothing equivalent to obtain it.
“One grain of Spaceti Star Sand for 100 trillion cosmic dollars,” Redeye said. “You’re my best friends, so I’ll sell it to you at the price Spaceti Island charges internally. A maximum of three grains per person.”
“This is too cheap,” Xu Jingming said. “Senior Brother Redeye, although the internal price is 100 trillion per grain on Spaceti Island, the Lv. 10 Origin lifeforms inside are competing with each other… In order to obtain a share, they have to pay more than this.”
“I’m aware.” Redeye shook his head. “That’s why I won’t be selling many. I’m only limiting it to three for my best friends. Cut the crap; I still need money for my marriage! I can’t let Qi Xiao’s family, the Demon Cloud family, look down on , right?”
“Then, I’ll gladly take up your offer.” Gu Shan smiled and said, “I want three.”
“I want three too,” Xu Jingming said.
“The two of you are really rich,” Moyu comnted. “Junior Brother Redeye, give so ti. I need to raise the money, and I also want three grains.”
Moyu really couldn’t fork out 300 trillion imdiately.
Redeye nodded. “Selling them to a few of my best friends is a sufficient sum of money.”
He planned on selling it to nine people.
With such wealth, Qi Xiao’s branch could beco one of the Demon Cloud family’s top three branches. After marriage, Qi Xiao would be the family he cared about the most. He naturally hoped that Qi Xiao would enjoy a certain prestige in the family.
