Chapter 128: Luck Enough to Be Called a

~6 min read 1,078 words

Imperial Capital, Tian Shu Headquarters.

“Do you know what you’re saying?”

“Leaving aside the Long Hong Sword’s recognition, its inheritance from Hong Mao is within our expectations.”

“But the Zhan Long Sword from the Zhu Xian world? The Kuntou Insect Device from Masked Rider Kamen? And the Qilin from the Hong Mao Lan Tu world?”

“Are you sure you’re not joking?”

Wang Shouguo, listening to Su Mengyao’s words over the phone, found it hard to believe.

Fine, the Long Hong Sword recognizing him was acceptable—but the Zhan Long Sword? The Kuntou Insect Device? The Qilin?

Ye Xuan is already fifth-rank, and he’s universally acknowledged as the most gifted individual in Da Xia.

He surpassed the Wang Quan Baye template through his own talent alone, reaching fifth-rank, earned recognition from the Fire Light Shadow Stone, and can summon the Flame Dragon Armor, boosting his strength to at least sixth-rank.

Even now, there’s likely no stronger being in all of Da Xia—or the entire world.

Even so, they believed that with Ye Xuan’s talent and the Flame Dragon Armor’s boost, he would become the absolute top-tier powerhouse, never falling behind due to the advancement of spiritual energy revival or the emergence of dimensional creatures and multiverse treasures.

But now Su Mengyao was telling him what?

Ye Xuan’s multiverse treasures weren’t just the Wang Quan Baye template, the Fire Light Shadow Stone, and those two Devil Fruits—he also had the Zhan Long Sword from the Zhu Xian world, the Kuntou Insect Device from the Masked Rider world, and the Qilin from the Hong Mao Lan Tu world?

Where the hell did he get so many multiverse treasures?

“Do you know why I said that back then?”

“I never expected Ye Xuan would have so many multiverse treasures.”

Su Mengyao said with a bitter smile.

Although the main reason she answered the call so late was that she’d fallen asleep, she’d only fallen asleep because the appearance of those multiverse treasures had stunned her into unconsciousness.

Normally, staying awake all night wouldn’t affect her much, but what she’d seen was simply too shocking.

“Are you sure that’s all?”

After a moment of silence, Wang Shouguo asked.

Even though these multiverse treasures alone were enough to shock anyone, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Ye Xuan might possess even more.

“Probably just these.”

There was also the “silly girl,” but she didn’t count—Ye Xuan hardly ever used her anyway.

Still, Su Mengyao suspected Ye Xuan might have other multiverse treasures she didn’t know about, but since he hadn’t mentioned them, she didn’t ask.

“Raise Ye Xuan’s priority level again. If he makes any requests, fulfill them as much as possible.”

“Contact me immediately if you get any new information.”

“That’s all.”

Wang Shouguo shook his head. Though these multiverse treasures were astonishing, unbelievable, and surreal, given their power, they were still within acceptable limits.

Whether it was the Long Hong Sword’s inheritance from Hong Mao, or the Zhan Long Sword, the Kuntou Insect Device, and the Qilin—they ultimately offered Ye Xuan only limited help; even combined, they couldn’t match the Flame Dragon Armor’s boost.

Fifth-rank in normal state, sixth-rank when pushing to full power—it’s just more tools at his disposal.

But the real issue isn’t the power of these multiverse treasures—it’s why Ye Xuan has so many of them.

Excluding the impossible guess of “rebirth,” either Ye Xuan, like Li Lao, has awakened a precognition-type ability, or he can perceive the awakening conditions of multiverse treasures; or, simply put, he’s just absurdly lucky—lucky enough to be called a “Child of Destiny.”

But whether it’s the former or the latter, Ye Xuan’s growth rate is terrifyingly fast.

“Pity he can’t be used by Tian Shu Headquarters—if he could, he alone could suppress all mutated creatures in Da Xia.”

Unnoticed, ten days slipped away.

During this brief period, dimensional creatures vanished from around the world, and even frequent mutated creature attacks decreased significantly.

Even in regions long plagued by war, hostilities temporarily ceased as humanity united against the threat of mutated creatures—everything seemed to be improving.

Yet the world always loves to play a cruel joke on humanity precisely when they let their guard down.

Just as everyone relaxed, the Beast Tide erupted again.

Qingshan County, Tian Shu Branch.

A shrill alarm shattered the quiet night.

“Diiiiiiip—!!!”

The spiritual energy detector’s readings skyrocketed; blinding red lights flashed on the monitor screens, and the piercing alarm instantly threw the entire branch into emergency mode.

“Report! Intense spiritual energy fluctuations detected in the direction of Qingfeng Mountain—readings have exceeded third-rank!”

“A third-rank mutated creature appears to be approaching the county!”

The monitor operator’s voice was urgent and tense.

“Qingfeng Mountain monitoring post reporting!”

“Large-scale aggregation of mutated creatures detected—initial assessment: Beast Tide!”

The voice from Tian Shu personnel stationed in the mountains was grave over the communicator.

Chen Mingyuan, director of the Qingshan County Tian Shu Branch, frowned heavily and immediately issued orders:

“Notify the Qingfeng Mountain garrison team—activate Level One defense protocol! Stop the Beast Tide within the mountains!”

“Simultaneously, trigger the full-city alarm and organize civilians to evacuate orderly to shelters!”

“Alert the medical and logistics teams—ensure all shelter supplies are ready!”

Chen Mingyuan’s voice was steady and commanding.

“Yes!”

With the orders issued, Qingshan County instantly went into emergency mode; the piercing air raid sirens echoed through the night, and street loudspeakers looped evacuation notices:

“All residents, pay attention! Large-scale aggregation of mutated creatures detected at Qingfeng Mountain—suspected Beast Tide!”

“Proceed immediately to the nearest shelter! Repeat: proceed to the nearest shelter immediately!”

On the streets, Tian Shu personnel swiftly guided civilians to evacuate—elderly and children first, able-bodied adults assisting with order.

Shelter doors stood wide open, their stored supplies and medical equipment fully prepared.

This was Da Xia’s emergency system established after the Spiritual Tide.

Every city, every county, even every township, must construct shelters of sufficient scale to ensure civilians reach safety within the shortest possible time during a Beast Tide.

As civilians gradually entered the shelters,

Inside Qingfeng Mountain,

“Fire! Fire! Full firepower!”

The commander of the Qingfeng Mountain garrison team roared orders, his assault rifle spewing searing flames; behind him, his team members, entrenched in pre-built fortifications, formed a dense web of fire.

“Bang bang bang—”

Bullets rained down like a storm; the front ranks of mutated beasts were torn apart, while armed drones flew overhead, their cannons roaring as they shredded the creatures at the rear.
