amounts wouldn’t be as close to their younger relatives.
When that happened, they would care more about the continuation of the family.

“I can’t believe it,” Jade Feather muttered in frustration.
“I missed my chance to become a relative of a Paramount.”

“It’s okay.
We can still make our Yun family stronger on our own,” Primordial One reassured her sister.

“I’ve heard that Wu Ming is just as powerful as the three Paramounts,” Jade Feather nodded and asked.

“Yes.” Primordial One nodded.
“Our generation has produced two exceptional geniuses—Redmond and Wu Ming—but there’s still a huge difference between the two.
Redmond might be one of many Paramounts in history, but he’ll probably stay a high-dimensional Firstborn lifeform forever.”

Only three Paramounts in human history had reached the second realm—the Eternal realm.

“Wu Ming is different,” Primordial One said.
“As long as he becomes a high-dimensional lifeform, he can enter the Heart Realm.
And high-dimensional lifeforms in the Heart Realm are very special.
It won’t be hard for him to reach the Eternal Realm.
There’s a good chance he’ll be the human race’s fourth high-dimensional Eternal lifeform.”

“A high-dimensional Eternal lifeform?” Jade Feather said, envious.
“Will the Void Celestials just sit back and watch?”

“All the species in the universe have an agreement,” Primordial One explained.
“Paramounts won’t interfere in the battles of low-dimensional lifeforms.
The three Paramounts couldn’t do anything when Wu Ming was corrupted, and the high-dimensional lifeforms of the Void Celestials won’t target Wu Ming either.”

“After all, humans can be revived if they’re targeted.”

“Unless the various species in the universe are confident they can destroy their opponent, they have to follow certain rules,” Primordial One said.
“Only then can the various species have a relatively stable living and reproduction environment.”

“Besides, even if a new high-dimensional Eternal lifeform is born, it’s not a big deal to the Void Celestials’ Gumo.” Primordial One shook her head.
“The Eternal realm means nothing to him.”

Jade Feather nodded in understanding.

Talking to her sister always helped expand her horizons.

“Gumo is an existence that’s almost at the third realm,” Primordial One pointed out.
“We humans just don’t have enough strength yet.”

******

Gumo perhaps saw it differently.
For him, Xu Jingming’s breakthrough meant the human race had gone from ‘three bugs’ to ‘four bugs.’ It still wasn’t worth his attention, but the impact of Xu Jingming’s breakthrough within the human race was significant.

Some top factions began to change their rules for recruiting peripheral members because of Xu Jingming.

Some large families began to think of ways to repair their relationship with the Xu family.

Some civilizations even started planning to integrate into Earth, seeing it as a potential advanced civilization.

“Jingming.” Li Miaomiao walked out of the living room and approached Xu Jingming in the courtyard of the old residence.

“What’s the matter?” Xu Jingming answered, putting down his drink and looking up at his wife with a smile.

“Didn’t some factions come to Earth to assassinate our Xu family in the past few years?”

“Yeah.” Xu Jingming nodded.

“Today, five lurking factions took the initiative to apologize with gifts,” Li Miaomiao told him.
“They once took orders and sent assassins to Earth, but they were actually intermediaries paid to ensure their customers’ confidentiality.”

“Apologize with gifts?” Xu Jingming frowned slightly.

“They’ve revealed their client’s information to us and have even captured the client alive.
They’re willing to hand them over to us at any time,” Li Miaomiao told him.

“Captured the client alive?” Xu Jingming nodded slightly.
“Do as you see fit.
All I care about is that those who dare attack my Xu family have to pay a sufficient price.”

“A sufficient price?” Li Miaomiao nodded.
“Don’t worry.
I understand.”

Xu Jingming nodded, knowing that if he didn’t punish them severely, they might think they could bully him.

“Jingming,” Li Miaomiao asked, sitting beside him with a smile, “why have you been in a daze every day since you came back?”

“I’m still studying how to become a high-dimensional lifeform.
How am I in a daze?” Xu Jingming replied, feeling helpless.

For the past two days, he had been studying the legacy—Red Lotus Fire—left behind by Master of the Abyssal Void’s true projection.

Red Lotus Fire was vast and boundless, and if he reached the limit of this path, he would be one step away from the third realm, enough to dominate high-dimensional Eternal lifeforms.

Of course, the most important thing for Xu Jingming right now was to become a high-dimensional lifeform first.

How should I construct a high-dimensional lifeform? Xu Jingming was vexed by this problem.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming’s eyes shot up as he sensed Secretary General Blacksky approach, dressed in a bright floral shirt.

“Secretary General Blacksky.” Xu Jingming greeted him as he stood up, and Li Miaomiao quickly rose to her feet as well.

“Wu Ming.” Blacksky landed and offered a smile.
“I’ve come to bring you some news.”

Xu Jingming smiled in surprise.
“What news? Why not through the virtual world? Why did you make a trip yourself?”

“The three Paramounts are already aware of your breakthrough, and the dean has even sent word back from high-dimensional space.
He’s planning to return with his true body, which should take about three years.”

“Return with his true body?” Xu Jingming was stunned.

The three Paramounts usually had their consciousness descend on a carrier.

Their consciousness carriers all had the strength of high-dimensional lifeforms, enough to revive low-dimensional lifeforms.
“The dean instructed you not to try constructing a high-dimensional body.
Wait for his return,” Blacksky said.

Xu Jingming nodded gravely.
“Understood.”

It was anyone’s guess as to how many years had passed since the dean’s actual body had returned to his home universe.
But now, he was back for a specific reason—Xu Jingming.

“Three years, you say?” Xu Jingming eagerly awaited the opportunity to finally meet the dean in person.
