Chapter 533 - 533 Redeye's Deal

533 Redeye’s Deal

The couple temporarily left the virtual world and returned to their personal s.p.a.ce.

“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 time, 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 s.p.a.cetime 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 sometime 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 s.p.a.cetime Island is different… She has children every few million years.”

And in this era, the only child alive on s.p.a.cetime Island is Senior Brother Redeye. Xu Jingming had a complicated expression.

Li Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise, “This means he has a loftier status than the ordinary bloodline descendants.”

Xu Jingming said softly, “Miaomiao, do you know why the owner of s.p.a.cetime Island has children born every few million years?”

“Why?” she asked.

“Because this is an experiment,” Xu Jingming explained. “The owner of s.p.a.cetime Island once said that she wanted to try… giving birth to a high-dimensional lifeform with a high-dimensional body.”

“If a high-dimensional lifeform can be born, the cosmic human race can have a group of high-dimensional lifeforms and become 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 h.e.l.lions… created the entire h.e.l.lion 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 s.p.a.cetime Island to give birth to generations of high-dimensional 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 become 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 h.e.l.lions, 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 me introduce you—this is my girlfriend, Qi Xiao. I even troubled Junior Brother Wu Ming to help tie the knot.”

“I was just a messenger.” 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 me 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 me money, so I could only think of ways to save up.”

n.o.body present dared to mutter.

Redeye’s mother was the owner of s.p.a.cetime Island. Who dared to speak ill of her?

“Have a seat,” Gu Shan urged. He raised his gla.s.s and smiled. “Back when the eight of us gathered, four of us have become 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 Metal Feather and Junior Sister Kabuya will probably surpa.s.s me and become Origin lifeforms first. The only thing I’m confident in is being faster than Junior Brother Azurescale.”

Azurescale was stunned for a moment before nodding. “I’ve deduced that I will likely be the last to become an Origin lifeform. It’s also possible that… I won’t become an Origin lifeform.”

How sad.

Xu Jingming felt some 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 mental strength improved slower and slower after reaching the limit of Lv. 8. It became very difficult for him to reach 10,000.

“You’re in the same 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 gla.s.s with antic.i.p.ation in his eyes. “Alright, let’s meet again in 10,000 years.”

One had to become an Origin lifeform to have a chance of living past 10,000 years.

Wu Ming and Redeye were in the same 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 s.p.a.ce.

“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 become 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 s.p.a.ce,” Xu Jingming praised.

Redeye sat with a smile and held a wine gla.s.s. “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 times,” Redeye said. “I had memories of my birth. The second time we met, I had just been recruited by the Primordial Research Inst.i.tute. The third time we met… was three days ago, when I became an Origin lifeform.”

“After three meetings, I’ve long realized that I’m a test subject. Didn’t she publicly say that she wanted to give birth to a high-dimensional lifeform?” Redeye said. “And I’m clearly a failure.”

The three times he met his mother were terrible memories.

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-dimensional 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 me three days ago?”

Gu Shan, Moyu, and Xu Jingming listened.

“She said… Child, I’ll meet you again the day you become a cosmic legend. Otherwise, this will be the last time we meet,” Redeye repeated and scoffed. “The last time we meet in this life? This is what a high-dimensional lifeform thinks? It’s really something I can’t comprehend.”

“Become a cosmic legend?”

“There are only seven cosmic legends in the 34 cosmic sectors of the entire cosmic human race,” Redeye commented. “How can I become a cosmic legend? Perhaps from her point of view, her experimental subject can become a cosmic legend! It means that she’s one step closer to giving birth to a high-dimensional lifeform. That makes me even more valuable as a test subject. Only then will it be worth her time to see me again?”

Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.

To the owner of s.p.a.cetime Island, Redeye was only an experiment 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 become a cosmic legend, would this be the last time they would meet? How could Redeye not be resentful?

“I heard that the three Paramounts are very busy and are working hard in high-dimensional s.p.a.ce,” Moyu comforted. “They are working hard for the entire human race, so she can rarely meet 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 me some gifts,” Redeye said. “These might be the last gifts I’ll receive in my life… from her.”

After all, they had to become cosmic legends if they wanted to meet 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 some of the gifts.”

Gu Shan immediately said, “Those are gifts from your mother.”

“She said that it’s up to me,” Redeye replied. “Moreover, I plan on selling s.p.a.cetime Star Sand. This kind of cosmic treasure is useless after being used once or twice, and I have a full bag of s.p.a.cetime Star Sand. What’s the point of keeping it?”

“s.p.a.cetime 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, s.p.a.cetime Star Sand was only occasionally produced on s.p.a.cetime Island. Typically, it was shared by the top powerhouses on s.p.a.cetime Island! If members of other top factions wanted to buy it, they had to pay a higher price or even use something equivalent to obtain it.

“One grain of s.p.a.cetime Star Sand for 100 trillion cosmic dollars,” Redeye said. “You’re my best friends, so I’ll sell it to you at the price s.p.a.cetime 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 s.p.a.cetime 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 c.r.a.p; I still need money for my marriage! I can’t let Qi Xiao’s family, the Demon Cloud family, look down on me, 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 commented. “Junior Brother Redeye, give me some time. I need to raise the money, and I also want three grains.”

Moyu really couldn’t fork out 300 trillion immediately.

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 become 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.
