Chapter 625: All Cry for Me
Three days later, a spaceship from the Leo Civilization landed on Earth. According to the unequal treaty signed by the Joraike Family and Fang Jueyu, they were to guard the souls of the deceased for three years on Earth.
Aside from those ancestors who had long ceased to care about worldly affairs, almost all the high-ranking members of the Joraike Family came, including four Controllers, Hilac among them, and over a dozen Peak Divine Ability Users.
Of course, there wasn't even a single Controller-level martial artist on Earth at the moment. Fang Jueyu understood the saying about cornered dogs jumping over walls. If they were ever driven to the brink, even he might suffer misfortune.
He simply had the ruler from the Haisa Civilization seal all their powers. This way, aside from high physical strength, they weren't much stronger than ordinary humans.
Faced with a Transcender, they didn't dare act rashly and could only silently endure it all.
In less than a year, the compensation of ten thousand trillion Cosmic Coins Fang Jueyu demanded was directly transferred to the Earth Federation's account. With this money, Earth began learning advanced technologies from several friendly neighboring civilizations and hired high-end talent, entering a period of rapid development.
Ever since learning about Earth's background, representatives from various civilizations in the galaxy arrived almost daily. Earth, with its current capabilities, couldn't accommodate so many visitors. They had no choice but to transform the Moon into a large-scale spaceship docking port.
However, during this time, Fang Jueyu wasn't idle; he had to start preparing for a significant event in his life—his wedding with Guo Xinyu!
Invitations for his parents and other ancestors were sent out, but so far, he hadn't received any replies. Fang Jueyu could only begin confidently preparing.
Since it was Fang Jueyu's wedding, it had to be grand and impressive. Every wedding detail was managed by Xiao Yi, which kept the family members handling the Fang Family's assets on every continent busy.
That day, a spaceship from the depths of the universe landed on Earth, and Fang Jueyu was there early to welcome them. As his first friend he made in the universe, Natu naturally received an invitation from Fang Jueyu.
No matter how far it was, Natu would definitely come for Fang Jueyu's invitation. After nearly five months of travel, he arrived on this planet he'd heard so much about for the first time.
But this planet was indeed more primitive than Natu had imagined. In his concept, since it was the planet where Fang Jueyu grew up, even if it wasn't extremely prosperous, it should at least be technologically advanced. However, at a glance, this planet's technology was still at a very primitive stage.
"What's the matter, disappointed?" Fang Jueyu gave Natu a light punch on the chest. "Our Earth is just a first-level civilization, we only started developing properly these past two years. Don't set your expectations too high!"
"Hahaha, not at all!" Natu didn't care about such things. "As long as there's good food and drinks, everything else is minor."
"Then there's no problem. Although we don't have high-grade ingredients on Earth, the culinary skills are top-notch. You'll definitely have a feast!"
"Come on, let me show you around!" With some time before the wedding, as the date approached, Fang Jueyu found himself more free.
"Wait!" Natu's eyes suddenly fell on a staff member at the Jiangnan City spaceship docking port. Just now, a cleaner carrying a bucket and sanitation tools passed by, actually emitting the aura of a Divine Ability User!
"You... you actually make Divine Ability Users work as cleaners?" Natu's face twisted in disbelief. Though Fang Jueyu was wealthy and well-connected, having Divine Ability Users do such tasks seemed excessive, didn't it?
"Is it that strange?" Fang Jueyu looked indifferent. "On our Earth, this is just basic operation. You'll understand soon enough."
"Is that so?" Natu followed Fang Jueyu along the luxurious corridor heading out of the dock.
"Visitors, please exit the port in order. Our designated staff will guide you to the Earth Federation's Galactic Civilization Embassy..."
In the hall of the docking port, staff guided visitors from various galactic civilizations using the universal language standard.
For security, visitors also had accompanying bodyguards, but by galactic standards, these bodyguards from ordinary civilizations were only at the Source Energy User level.
However, in this port, the guards arranged by humans from Earth were, at the weakest, Divine Ability Users!
"Who would like a souvenir? Local specialties such as beer, instant noodles, spicy strips, all at reasonable prices!"
"Lanzhou noodles! Come and try!"
"Huangmen chicken rice, take a look!"
"Sha County snacks, have a taste!"
...
"Damn!" Natu, at some point, had learned these exclusive Huaxia exclamations. "Your guards being Divine Ability Users is one thing, but how are even the ordinary service personnel Divine Ability Users?"
Even planets of fourth-level civilizations weren't this extravagant!
"Hahaha, this cosmic port is Earth's face to the cosmos; it naturally needs to be presentable," Fang Jueyu laughed. "From the toilets' cleaning crew to the management staff, the least capable are Peak Source Energy Martial Artists."
"I'll tell you, when I returned to Earth, I captured 200,000 Peak Source Energy Users and 2,000 Divine Ability Users. They are all my slaves now!"
"Damn! Impressive!" What else could Natu say? If you have money, you can do whatever you like!
"I must say, even if the food on your Earth isn't made from high-grade ingredients, it certainly tastes amazing!" Natu sniffed, the enticing aroma making him salivate. Nearby, aliens were enthusiastically eating at the snack counter.
"I'll take you home and treat you to a feast!" Fang Jueyu warmly offered.
The two exited the port, and the first thing that caught their eyes was an enormous monument hundreds of meters tall.
"Old Fang, what's this?"
"That's to commemorate the warriors and civilians who died when the Joraike Family invaded Earth over a year ago," Fang Jueyu explained. "Wanna check it out?"
"Yes, let's pay our respects." Natu nodded.
"Consultant Fang!" Several Yanhuang Martial Artists guarding the memorial park greeted Fang Jueyu.
"Thank you for your hard work," Fang Jueyu said.
In front of the monument, about twenty people were dressed in mourning clothes.
"Brother Fang, are those people the families of the deceased?" Natu asked.
"Oh no," Fang Jueyu pointed to the one in front and said, "That's Hilac, the clan leader of the Joraike Family, a Fifth-level Controller. Along with him are their family's elder Controllers, and the rest are Peak Divine Ability Users!"
"This... why are they here?" Knowing that the Joraike Family had sent the fleet to invade Earth made it surprising.
"Of course, they're here to atone for what they've done," Fang Jueyu showed discontent. "But they don't seem sincerely repentant."
With a casual grip, Fang Jueyu summoned a whip of electric current and indiscriminately lashed at them.
Though they still had the bodies of high-level warriors, with their cosmic source power sealed, the pain from the electric currents had to be endured with their flesh and blood.
"Don't hit us, sir, don't hit us," Hilac cried out. "We've been keeping vigil here as instructed!"
"Vigil? You call this keeping vigil? Do you feel sincerely repentant?" Fang Jueyu continued to scold, "Cry! All of you cry! Who among the mourners hasn't shed a tear?"
"Yes! We'll cry, we'll start crying immediately!" Hilac and the others immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, tears flowing like rain. It was unclear if their tears were from genuine repentance or brought about by Fang Jueyu's beatings.
"You guys keep an eye on them," Fang Jueyu instructed, handing the electric whip to the nearby Yanhuang Martial Artists. "From now on, they are to cry until the vigil ends. If they dare stop, beat them!"
"Yes, Consultant, we'll make sure of it!"
"This..." Natu felt a chill for the members of the Joraike Family. Offending Fang Jueyu was evidently worse than death!
