"I hereby announce that Ai Xi has been awarded the International Star Guardian Rank, with a rank of one star, with a reward of one elemental energy stone and one hundred thousand alliance currency. Fang Chong has been awarded the International Star Guardian Rank, with a rank of one star, with a reward of one elemental energy stone and one hundred thousand alliance currency..."
With Zheng Fang’s voice falling, Fang Chong, excited, quickly hastened his steps to receive his award.
Before this, he had never imagined that he could obtain the Star Guardian Rank.
Not to mention the benefits of the Star Guardian Rank, with this one-star rank, wherever he went, he was a respected existence.
"Do you have anything to say?" After presenting the awards to Ai Xi and Fang Chong, Zheng Fang also asked them this question.
This was somewhat different from the treatment Qu Yi received; Qu Yi spoke as a representative of the support team, which was obligatory.
Whereas Fang Chong and Ai Xi could choose to speak or not.
"I only have one thing to say, my mentor is Ding Huan, and the Genetic Alliance has issued a warrant for my mentor. I’ve been displeased with it for a long time.
They twist right and wrong and fabricate all kinds of baseless reasons, just to covet the Genetic Potion that my mentor possesses. If Sister Qu Yi goes to the Genetic Alliance, I, Fang Chong, will definitely accompany her."
Fang Chong spoke without the subtlety of Qu Yi and bluntly criticized the shameless conduct of the Genetic Alliance.
Guo Qingrong covered his forehead, thinking to himself, why couldn’t this simple fellow learn from Qu Yi and speak diplomatically?
Before Zheng Fang could speak, Ai Xi followed, "My thoughts align with Sister Qu Yi and Brother Fang Chong; whatever concerns Master Ding Huan concerns us as well."
"Your mentor is also Ding Huan?" Hu Jiatian couldn’t help but ask.
Ai Xi smiled, "Yes."
Actually, she was taught by Fang Chong on behalf of his mentor, so in Ai Xi’s eyes, Ding Huan was her mentor.
Today, sitting here was an officer responsible for the defense lines of the Genetic Alliance, Zang Yijun.
This guy was a typical Westerner. If previously he had dismissed Qu Yi’s words, now, hearing Ai Xi’s and Fang Chong’s words, he began to panic.
Whether it was Qu Yi, Ai Xi, or Fang Chong, and not to forget Lv Zi, whose performance on the Fierce Beast battlefield he had clearly witnessed today...
In the future, as they grew... No, they had already grown. This emerging force, together with the students Fang Chong had yet to bring over...
Zang Yijun dared not continue the thought; it was not impossible that this could uproot the Genetic Alliance. Even if they could not do it now, as time passed, there would surely come a day when they could.
Qu Yi’s words had already skewed the Human Corridor Defense Line in favor of Ding Huan. Coupled with Ding Huan’s extraordinary disciples, the Genetic Alliance might really come to an end.
Zang Yijun, agitated beyond measure, wished he could immediately make a call and report the situation here to Alliance Hierarch Shi Changyi.
However, this commendation ceremony had at least a few more hours to go.
Although Zheng Fang was only presenting awards for the top ten, and the rest of the awards would be announced and then distributed by platoon and squad, it wasn’t something that would end soon.
...
Ding Huan walked out of the Luohuan Building, refreshed and clear-headed.
Using the Genetic Poison Fog, he had killed a total of three hundred and eleven members of the Washing Blade Association. It could be said that he had wiped out all the members of the Washing Blade Association in Luoh River City, regardless of gender.
Ding Huan felt no mercy; each of them had blood on their hands, and killing them a hundred times over would not be too much.
If it weren’t for the Luohuan Building being in a bustling district with too many surrounding buildings, Ding Huan would have liked to set the Luohuan Building on fire.
Leaving the Luohuan Building, Ding Huan decided to head to the train station first and take a train to Kunxin City.
Kunxin City was established less than ten years ago, originally to combat the beast threat from the Kunlun Mountain Range. With the current dire situation of the Fierce Beasts, he wasn’t sure if trains were still running to that place.
However, at the side of a narrow path, Ding Huan stopped.
He saw a scavenging old man. The old man was quite a distance away from him, but with Ding Huan’s cultivation, he could still see him clearly.
Different from other scavengers who would at least have an iron hook to rummage through the garbage, this old man simply used his hands to search through the trash for anything that could be reused.
In his past life, when his legs were broken and his eyes gouged out, it was a scavenger who picked him up and then sold him to the Genetic Alliance.
Was it this old man?
Whether it was this old man, he could tell simply by listening to his voice.
Just as Ding Huan thought of approaching to ask, a woman with a tote bag came out.
"Here is some food, would you like it?" The woman obviously had a kind heart, taking the initiative to walk over to the old man and hand him the tote bag.
In this era, to offer food to scavengers was to be a truly generous person.
"Thank you..." the old man hurriedly wiped his hands on his body, transferring all the dirt and mud from the garbage onto his clothes.
After dusting off the dirt, only then did he take the tote bag from the woman with both hands.
Ding Huan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
It was this old man. Even if he were reduced to ashes, he remembered the voice, even if the other party had only said three words.
What the old man had said back then was, ’One thousand alliance currency, just one thousand alliance currency, this is a Genetic Affinity Body, a bargain for you.’
At this moment, Ding Huan wished he could immediately go over and take the old man away.
He hesitated for a bit but still held back.
He was weighing the pros and cons.
If he wanted to restore what had happened in the past, he might still need to be picked up by the old man.
If he forced the old man to take him to look for the Genetic Alliance branch, would history be changed?
Even if the fleet departed as scheduled, would he still be able to survive after being engulfed by something like a wormhole vortex as before?
Ding Huan quickly cast these thoughts aside, maybe history had already changed when he wiped out those heads of the Pu Hai Gene Alliance.
Why think so much? If the Genetic Alliance didn’t organize the fleet, he would force Shi Changyi’s head to the ground and make him organize it.
He didn’t necessarily have to wait for the same opportunity as before; opportunities were created by oneself. Now that he had encountered the old man, it would be a shame not to seek him out considering his past ordeals.
Ding Huan took out the unused Great Wilderness Golden Ape blood from his bag—he had originally used far too much, almost a full bottle.
He hadn’t even used one-tenth of it for gene experiments.
Now Ding Huan took out the bottle, poured some out, and smeared the Great Wilderness Golden Ape blood on his face, neck, hands, and even on his clothes.
Then he picked up a piece of wood and, pretending to be seriously injured, staggered towards the garbage pile.
When he reached the scavenger, Ding Huan acted as if he was out of strength and collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, Ding Huan’s Divine Will landed on the scavenger. This old man could recognize him as a Genetic Affinity Body; in Ding Huan’s opinion, this guy was definitely not an ordinary person.
What Ding Huan didn’t expect was that no matter how he observed with his Divine Will, the old man showed no hint of elemental power fluctuations—he was just an ordinary scavenger, as ordinary as could be.
Seeing Ding Huan fall to the ground, the scavenger only glanced at him, gripped his vest bag tighter, and then turned to leave slowly.
This didn’t match Ding Huan’s expectations at all. Should he forcefully grab the old man and interrogate him?
Just as Ding Huan was thinking about how to handle the old man, the scavenger suddenly seemed to remember something. He took out a leather scroll from his pocket, carefully inspected it, and then turned his head to look at Ding Huan.
It was as if thunder had struck Ding Huan’s mind—the leather scroll, it was that leather scroll.
He had a feeling that this scroll and the one he had swallowed before were the same kind, and from the same period.
How could such bizarre things happen? You must know that the scroll he had before was obtained on an abandoned planet outside the Changyi Continent.
And how far was Earth from Changyi Continent? They weren’t even in the same star system.
Ding Huan was about to rush over and seize the old man’s leather scroll, but the old man walked towards him instead.
The old man came over, gave Ding Huan a careful look up and down, compared him to the leather scroll in his hand, and then said, "Are you called Ding Xiaotu?"
Before Ding Huan could respond, the old man shook his head and in a very faint voice said, "No, that’s not right. Wasn’t it said that Ding Xiaotu was to have his legs broken and his eyes gouged out?"
This Ding Xiaotu only seemed to be injured...
The old man’s voice was low but couldn’t escape Ding Huan’s ears. Ding Huan was not only disbelieving at this moment, his heart was filled with horror. What was going on?
Forcing himself to calm down, Ding Huan’s Divine Will focused on the leather scroll in the old man’s hand,
"Based on my calculations, the appearance of this scroll indicates that Ding Xiaotu will soon appear. He will be beaten, his legs broken, and his eyes gouged out and left beside the garbage dump at East City entrance of Luoh River City.
He is a Genetic Affinity Body, and Genetic Affinity Bodies are very valuable right now; taking him away to sell will certainly yield a considerable income.
After that, you can go to where the scroll appeared, and there will be a new gene cultivation Technique. This is your opportunity, and your future."
Seeing this, Ding Huan felt his scalp tingle.
After swallowing the scroll, he knew the person who left it behind was extremely powerful. This predictive ability was more than just terrifying.
But why would a powerful being from the Immortal God era know about a nobody like him, born in the post-Earth era?
In fact, he didn’t just make the ancient being aware of him, he even obtained the inheritance scroll left by this powerful being.
And not only that, this powerful being had even calculated that he, Ding Xiaotu, would face this ordeal?
These thoughts made Ding Huan feel chilled to the bone. What merit or ability did he, Ding Xiaotu, have to be remembered by such an ancient strong being, to have them spend so much effort to calculate his future?
Even as a Level 4 gene cultivator, Ding Huan could sense that forecasting things that would happen far in the future was definitely not simple, and likely required a price to pay.
"Ding Xiaotu, I’ll take you to a place where you don’t have to live this hard life, at least not worry about food and warmth. Are you willing to come with me?"

The scavenger’s voice interrupted Ding Huan’s thoughts.
Struggling to stand up, Ding Huan said, "Is there food? If there’s food, I’m willing to go."
He wanted to know if the old man was going to take him to the Genetic Alliance’s branch and then sell him for a thousand alliance coins.
In his memory, it seemed the old man didn’t sell him directly to the Genetic Alliance branch.
