I’m Li Weiguo, head of the Huaxia Special Department’s Fenglin Huoshan. There’s a matter of great importance I need to confirm with you—please cooperate fully.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the voice from his homeland, Cang Luo replied with joy: “Hello, I’m Cang Luo. My family...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Cang Luo could finish, Li Weiguo spoke again: “Understood, Cang Luo. Now please cooperate with us and answer my questions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One: Are you aware of where the world you’re currently in is...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interrupted, Cang Luo grew annoyed and cut him off: “Where are my family? I want to speak to them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to confirm first whether his family was safe—family was the most important thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If what Eden and Ikkunsha claimed was true—that his family was under house arrest—Cang Luo would refuse to reveal any information about this other world to Huaxia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several seconds of silence, Li Weiguo’s voice returned: “Alright, transfer the call to his family so they can speak.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Cang Luo’s heart sank—his family was indeed in their hands. He prayed they weren’t under house arrest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While waiting to speak with his family, Cang Luo’s phone kept ringing with “beep-beep” sounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It meant someone else was calling him—he didn’t need to guess who it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One minute later, his mother’s urgent voice came through: “Xiao Luo, Xiao Luo, are you okay? Where are you? Have you eaten breakfast?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mom...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo’s voice trembled. Though they’d been apart only a day, the distance between them felt like another lifetime—he didn’t know when they’d meet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo choked out: “Mom, I’m fine, I’m safe. What about you? Where are Dad and my little sister?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Luo...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, we’re here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both his father and sister spoke at once. His father took the phone: “Xiao Luo, we’re fine, completely safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re temporarily staying in the Imperial Capital. Don’t worry about us—is it dangerous where you are?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m safe here. What about you? Have they done anything to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang’s father sighed in relief: “Good, that’s good. We’re safe, don’t worry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah... Comrade guard, please give me a few more minutes...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the guard reach for the phone, Cang’s father hurriedly said: “Cang Luo, you must cooperate fully with the state to complete your mission and serve the motherland...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, Dad, Mom, little sister...” Cang Luo cried out anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cang Luo, don’t make us repeat ourselves. You must answer our questions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it wasn’t Li Weiguo speaking—the voice was razor-sharp, brimming with commands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man paused, then continued: “One: Do you know where the world you’re in is located? What are its characteristics?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Two: Is there any way to return to Earth?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three: Why can your phone connect to Earth’s network for calls?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing these orders, Cang Luo’s face turned cold—this commanding tone was deeply irritating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if he owed this man millions, or that he was his subordinate. Annoyed, Cang Luo snapped: “Who are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who am I?” The voice on the other end sounded as if he’d heard an unbelievable reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silence, the man spoke in a low, heavy tone: “I am Chen Jun, Deputy Minister of Fenglin Huoshan, a department directly accountable to the State Council. Now tell me—who am I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Answer my questions immediately. Don’t let the state down. Don’t let your parents down. Otherwise...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you threatening me with my family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo growled low, pulled the phone away from his ear, ignored Li Weiguo’s voice saying “You’ve misunderstood,” and hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo’s eyes flared with rage, his teeth clenched: “They’re threatening my family. So Eden and Ikkunsha were telling the truth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My family is under house arrest—they’re trying to force me to hand over information about this other world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Cang Luo set himself a goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learn the cultivation arts of the Yuanwu Continent, wait until next year to return to Earth, and make every person who harmed or intended to harm him and his family pay...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his family was in their hands—what should he do now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo stared at his phone, still vibrating, the caller ID still reading “Unknown Number.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed, and he pressed the answer button again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Weiguo’s voice came through immediately: “Cang Luo, don’t misunderstand—we won’t harm any Huaxia citizen, let alone put your family under house arrest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You may not know that in the twenty hours since you were transported away, how many foreign forces tried to kidnap your family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without Fenglin Huoshan’s protection, your family would’ve been taken long ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For this, Fenglin Huoshan lost seven elite soldiers from its operational teams.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his family had been targeted and that seven elite soldiers had died protecting them, Cang Luo exploded: “When did this happen? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Who tried to kidnap them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Weiguo explained: “Your parents asked us not to tell you—they feared you’d worry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, though we want information about the other world, we would never use your family as leverage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the forces behind the kidnapping, though they all committed suicide after failing, we suspect it was either Ikkunsha, that arrogant island nation, or Eden over in North America.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the names Eden and Ikkunsha, Cang Luo remembered the text messages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So those so-called international rescue groups are garbage. When I master my skills and return to Earth, I’ll repay them a hundredfold.” Cang Luo roared inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Li Weiguo’s words, Cang Luo believed only seven out of ten—even if Li wouldn’t use his family as leverage, he couldn’t guarantee others wouldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant his family might be in danger at any moment. But he was stranded in another world, powerless to protect them—he could only entrust them to his homeland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Cang Luo said sincerely: “I’m sorry. I misunderstood you earlier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. Don’t worry—we’ll protect your family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thanking him, Cang Luo asked his question: “What are Eden and Ikkunsha? Are they powerful? How can they operate inside Huaxia’s borders?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a murmur on the other end, then Li Weiguo’s voice returned: “I can tell you. Do you remember how today’s global situation came to be?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo knew this well—it was in his middle school history textbook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After World War II, roughly two hundred nations and regions on Earth either merged or were absorbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, five superpowers and four alliances, plus one war zone, emerged, with smaller nations acting as buffers between the great powers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five superpowers controlled nearly half the planet’s landmass—one in North America, four across Eurasia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining half was mostly organized into alliances: one in South America, one in Africa, one in Southeast Asia, and one formed by several island nations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, there was the war zone, constantly embroiled in conflict due to its oil wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling his middle school history, Cang Luo asked, puzzled: “So what exactly are Eden and Ikkunsha? They sound incredibly powerful?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Briefly,” Li Weiguo paused, as if organizing his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s start with the causes of World War I and II—they weren’t, as textbooks claim, about territorial or ideological disputes, but over Zhengduo  extraterrestrial technology.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After WWII, nations continued competing to find and seize other alien tech, shaping today’s global order.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Organizations like Eden, Ikkunsha, and Fenglin Huoshan were all founded to seek out extraterrestrial technology.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Over the past decades, Eden in North America has reaped the greatest rewards, directly triggering Earth’s Third Scientific Revolution, ushering humanity into the atomic and information age.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Luo froze in shock: “The internet and computers are alien technology?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was stunned by Li Weiguo’s revelation, and frustrated—he was just an ordinary person, completely unaware of these secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he not been transported, he might never have learned them in his lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Weiguo continued: “Of course. Otherwise, how could Earth have advanced so drastically in just sixty or seventy years? Nuclear weapons are also alien technology.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moreover, our investigations show Eden is preparing for the Fourth Scientific Revolution.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Fourth Scientific Revolution? What’s that?” Cang Luo, overwhelmed by the flood of information, was numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Weiguo spoke gravely: “It’s related to genetic technology. You’ll learn more about it gradually.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now answer my questions about the other world—it’s vital to our homeland.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Information about the other world is crucial. It might allow us to skip the Fourth Scientific Revolution entirely and leap straight into the Fifth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Li Weiguo finished, Cang Luo was utterly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fifth Scientific Revolution? That’s absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>",1437,"2026-06-21T06:04:04.528Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","95d2bd9681e1abef3a8e74e16ad48ef299d6277a468799a1186753dae573cd94","high-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-chapter-7","high-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-chapter-5",157,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhigh-martial-arts-across-two-worlds-cover.jpg"]
