"Alright."


    "Everyone, check carefully." Li Yuan and Miao Wei both nodded in agreement.


    They immediately split up and sprinted toward the distant bodies of Xue Shu and Mo Li.


    During the fierce battle just now, after they finished off their opponents, they all went to provide support immediately, without any time to search for war spoils.


    Whoosh!


    Li Yuan ran up to the torn body of a Xue Shu, quickly and meticulously inspecting it.


    He then discovered that aside from weapons, armor, and life detectors, there wasn''t much left.


    "Hmm?" Li Yuan suddenly paused, opening the sealedpartment in the corpse''s inner armor.


    A strange, refreshing fragrance wafted out.


    Surprise shed through Li Yuan''s eyes.


    Because in thatpartment were several elixirs, which Li Yuan could not identify... But given how secretly they were ced, they were likely extremely precious.


    Beyond that, Li Yuan didn''t find anything else of value.


    Gathering all the items together.


    Whoosh! Li Yuan quickly returned to where Liu Jing was, who had already mostly stripped down the items from Delgado''s body.


    Miao Wei had also returned with the items left by Mo Li.


    The three of them ced the spoils of war in the center, piling up into a heap.


    "I''ll check to see." Liu Jing quickly began inspecting them, and when he checked the several elixirs scavenged by Li Yuan, he revealed a smile, "These should be life-saving elixirs, but the Tianliang n''s elixir forms are slightly different from ours, its effects must be checked before we can know its value."


    "Two Origin Power Battle Suits, both with slight damage, can be used after repairs."


    "These weapons are also quite good, worth quite a bit of money, plus these misceneous items... total value." Liu Jing pondered briefly before saying, "Except for the elixirs."


    "If the other items are sold back to the Alliance''s procurement department, they should be worth 1.5 billion Blue Star Coins."


    Li Yuan and Miao Wei nodded slightly, 1.5 billion Blue Star Coins?


    It sounds like a lot, but it''s worth remembering that this was the result of them wiping out three powerful members of the Tianliang n.


    Normally, Prime Warriors do not willingly engage in battle with warriors of the same rank, as it''s extremely dangerous.


    High rewardse with high risks.


    Many Prime Warriors may never experience such a brutal battle in their lifetimes... and if one experiences it too often without sufficient strength, they are bound to die in a life-and-death fight sooner orter.


    "Regarding these spoils, once everything is sold, we''ll divide them equally among the three of us, no problem." Liu Jing smiled as he looked at the two.


    "No problem."


    "Good." Li Yuan and Miao Wei both nodded in agreement, and if anyone was at a disadvantage, it was Liu Jing.


    "Alright, let''s leave the stuff here and mark it," Liu Jing said, "then we''ll continue to scout both sides of Flying Serpent Valley."


    "Just now on our way here, we encountered quite a few Tianliang n First Rank warriors... but we refrained from acting against those First Rank warriors because we were focused on a surprise attack against the Tianliang n Prime Warriors."


    "Now, let''s exterminate them first." Liu Jing shared his thoughts.


    "Alright."


    "Let''s move."


    The three formidable fighters once again set into motion, very tacitly forming two teams—one with Liu Jing alone, the other with Li Yuan and Miao Wei.


    About one kilometer apart, they spread out to sweep and inspect the area.


    ...


    "Pfft!"


    The spear light shed by, and a frantically fleeing Tianliang n warrior fell without any chance to fight back.


    "Spiritual Awakening Level at 30.1%?" Li Yuan nced at the Divine Pce panel, "That''s really slow."


    Whoosh! Li Yuan continued forward.


    With his spiritual power extended outward, his perception ability had reached an unfathomable level, and some Tianliang n warriors who were trying to hide could not escape their inquiry.


    Even along the way, when Li Yuan asionally encountered Flying Serpents, he ughtered them just the same.


    As nned.


    If they were to establish a new base in the vicinity of Flying Serpent Valley, the entire Flying Serpent poption would either bepletely destroyed or at least all driven away.


    Alien races, with hearts inevitably different from our own.


    When ites to the struggle for living space.


    For the future of the entire civilization, having experienced the ''Fish Spirit Tide'' in Jiang City, Li Yuan would show no mercy to alien races.


    ...


    An hourter.


    Li Yuan, Liu Jing, and Miao Wei had collectively purged the entire area around Flying Serpent Valley, with over 150 Tianliang n warriors killed by them, not counting the Flying Serpents.


    Perhaps a few Tianliang n warriors survived, but they most certainly fled in panic.


    The three regrouped at the original battlefield.


    "Xu An, you should take these spoils of war and return to the forward outpost first." Liu Jing looked at Li Yuan.


    "Senior, I should go back?" Li Yuan was taken aback.

    "With the vicinity of Flying Serpent Valleyrgely cleared, and the Tianliang n''s advance forcepletely wiped out, as long as the Tianliang n''s highmand isn''t foolish, they will suspend actions for now. Arge-scale battle won''t erupt again for a considerable time." Liu Jing smiled faintly, "With our Mechanical Legion about to arrive... we already have an absolute advantage."


    "Your continued presence here is unlikely to be of much use to you, it would be better for you to return to the forward outpost first."


    "First, to bring the spoils of war back."


    "Second, to have a good rest." Liu Jing smiled, "Afterward, if we really need support here, how about youe back then?"


    Li Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay."


    Li Yuan didn''t refuse any further, his spiritual power had just made a breakthrough, and he indeed needed to meditate quietly for a few days.


    "Xu An, be careful on the way back." Miao Wei smiled. After the recent battle, her opinion of Li Yuan hadpletely changed.


    A few minutester.


    Li Yuan packed arge amount of spoils of war into his backpack, stuffed to the brim, and quickly disappeared into the forest.


    Not until Li Yuan hadpletely vanished from sight.


    "Elder Liu," Miao Wei spoke softly, "You''re worried about Xu An getting involved in the uing war, aren''t you?"


    "Yes." Liu Jing nodded slightly, "You just checked the device left by the Tianliang n''s Prime Warrior, and you must have discovered the secret at the bottom of Flying Serpent Valley."


    "A small Origin Crystal vein." Miao Wei said solemnly.


    "As of now, the Tianliang n has suffered heavy losses, but they won''t easily give up, enticed by an Origin Crystal vein," Liu Jing said indifferently, "They will definitely reorganize their forces toe back, even summoning more powerhouses from their homnd civilization."


    "Soon, a great battle will erupt in Flying Serpent Valley," Liu Jing said.


    Miao Wei nodded slightly.


    They were both aware of the value of an Origin Crystal vein; even a small one had an astonishing total worth.


    Not to mention the loss of just two Prime Warriors; even if twenty or thirty died, the Tianliang n would probably not give up the fight.


    "You must have sensed Xu An''s talent and strength," Liu Jing said, "Continuing to stay here during the uing battle would be extremely dangerous... sending him back is the best choice."


    Miao Wei listened, ustomed to following Liu Jing''s arrangements.


    "Right."


    "In the report to the base, list Xu An as the first discoverer of the ''Origin Crystal vein'', with you and me as the second discoverers," Liu Jing said.


    "To list him as the first?" Miao Wei was surprised and couldn''t help asking, "Why?"


    "Isn''t saving my life enough reason?" Liu Jing nced at her, "If you''re unwilling, I don''t mind removing you from the list of discoverers."


    "Understood. My report will list him as the first discoverer." Miao Wei gave in.


    As the discoverer of this small Origin Crystal vein, if a war base was sessfully established in the future, a substantial reward would be given at least ten billion Blue Star Coins... she certainly did not wish to be kicked out.


    Essentially, Liu Jing was transferring his own interest to Li Yuan.


    "Elder Liu, why didn''t you tell Xu An the truth just now?" Miao Wei couldn''t help asking.


    "Foolish," Liu Jing shook his head, "With his intelligence, if he knew the truth, he would certainly guess that the Tianliang n would not let things go... He would most likely not leave."


    Miao Wei suddenly understood.


    "Alright, quickly finish the report and send it to me," Liu Jing said, "I am going to wait for the subsequent forces to arrive."


    "Yes, Elder Liu."


    ...


    While Li Yuan rushed to Outpost Base Three, and Liu Jing and Miao Wei prepared to establish a preliminary war defense system,


    Thousands of kilometers away from Flying Serpent Valley,


    Within a rather dreamy city, the upper echelon of the Tianliang n was holding an emergency meeting.


    In the vast conference room, several holograms were projected, disying the battle scenes between Li Yuan, Liu Jing, and their group against Xue Shu and Mo Li''s group in Flying Serpent Valley.


    The five Second Rank powerhouses of the Tianliang n all watched the hologram in dead silence.


    After a long while,


    "You''ve all seen it, Delgado, Mo Li, Xue Shu—all died in battle," said the figure in casual clothes, his voice slightly hoarse, "These videos are thest segment of imagery transmitted by their own devices after the three of them died."


    The technology of the Tianliang n was very advanced in some aspects.


    Their personal devices recorded many things; normally, the owner decided whether to upload these images.


    But once the owner died, the device would transmit thest segment of video back to the base.


    Originally, there was no signal around Flying Serpent Valley.


    However, in thesest few days, while seeking Flying Serpent Valley, the Tianliang n had built temporary signal ry stations en route, allowing the videos to be sent back.


    "Liu Jing of the Seven Stars human civilization has greatly improved in strength since the past, his injuries have fully recovered, and he is suspected to have reached Subtlety." The figure in casual clothes said slowly, "Any one of us, in a one-on-one fight, would probably be no match for him."


    Silence ensued.


    Subtlety?


    The Tianliang n might have more Prime Warriors, but they were just Second Rank beginners or intermediates.


    Any one of them facing Liu Jing would be at a disadvantage, or even face death.


    "Liu Jing''s breakthrough is just one aspect."


    "The key lies in this human," the figure in casual clothes said, pointing at the young man highlighted on the hologram, which was Li Yuan.


    "ording to the video, with multiple life detectors'' inquiry, he''s just level 19, which should be urate."


    "Yet his extreme running speed has exceeded 130 meters per second."


    "And how did he manage to kill Xue Shu with one move?" the figure in casual clothes said solemnly, "I suspect he is a ''SSS-grade genius'' that the Seven Stars human civilization has kept hidden."


    "It must be reported upward."


    "Find out who he is."
