494 The Dean’s Suggestion (2)

“An Origin lifeform can only live a maximum of 100,000 years. We can’t waste it,” Redmond said.

Xu Jingming nodded.

“However, this old man treats you really well. He gave you Primordial Battle Armor #9,” Blacksky remarked. “Let’s go. Time to hand you the battle armor and spaceship.”

“I’ll be making a move.” Deputy Dean Redmond smiled and said, “Primordial Battle Armor #9 is ranked ninth; it’s obvious how much importance the dean values you. Cherish this battle armor.”

“Thank you, Deputy Dean.” Xu Jingming then watched the other party leave.

…

A spaceship advanced in the darkness.

“Sir, how should we deal with this investment loss?” a woman asked respectfully.

Tejano sat in a chair and rubbed his forehead tiredly. “Do they think I’m a fool? To lose 300 billion cosmic dollars just like that? Use the excuse of the heavy losses incurred to fire my brothers and the others.”

“Fire?” The woman was stunned. “Sir, are you sure?”

“Prepare the dismissal document. I’ll sign it.” Tejano looked exhausted.

He started a business, and some of his childhood friends took the initiative to help. Tejano still gave them a chance.

After all, Tejano wasn’t old. He didn’t have many friends and only had a few peers his age in the family. He was willing to give them a chance.

“Why did they think it’s fine to embezzle some of my money? I gave them a chance and was willing to give them a high share of the profits. Why did they embezzle all 300 billion cosmic dollars using losses as an excuse?” Tejano didn’t care about this bit of money; he cared about how his friends had treated him like a fool. “Fura, why do you think they did this? Are they certain that I won’t care?”

The female assistant, Fura, thought for a moment before saying, “They came with the intention to fleece you.”

“They didn’t even need to do it themselves; they could’ve hired people to do the work. Wouldn’t they have a brighter future if they worked hard?” Tejano asked.

“Sir, any achievements would be yours! As for the profits?” Fura smiled and said, “Isn’t embezzling the investment money a hundred times faster than the earnings? In fact, as long as you’re willing, you can make the three of them cough up the investments!”

Tejano shook his head gently. “There’s no need. I’ll consider spending 300 billion cosmic dollars as buying out our friendship.”

“From today onward, the three of them are prohibited from entering my company or the Redmond Group,” Tejano said. “Update the Redmond Group with my request.”

“Yes, sir,” Fura replied respectfully. At the same time, she despised the trio. Three idiots…

Tejano was in need of manpower. Work given to his friends in the beginning was just a form of practice. If their ability was proven, the resources and authority they gained in the future would only increase tenfold or a hundredfold.

They ended their friendship for 300 billion.

His Excellency really cares about his relationships. He didn’t even make these three cough up the money, Fura thought.

Tejano was suddenly stunned as he looked at a document that appeared on the projection.

“Ha!” Tejano stood up excitedly.

“Hahaha…” Tejano roared with laughter as it echoed around him.

Fura was a little puzzled, but she didn’t dare look at the information on the projection.

“Fura, take a look at this document.” Tejano pointed at the document.

Only then did Fura go over to take a look. This was information about Xu Jingming’s identity.

“Wh—” Fura found it unbelievable.

“Many people in the family said that I was too willful to station a Yellow-Shirted Envoy on Earth for a friend,” Tejano said with a smile. “I want to say that they underestimated Xu Jingming.”

Fura was a little stunned. “Lord Wu Ming—who became an Origin lifeform the fastest in this era—is Earth’s Xu Jingming?”

“Sir, you have impeccable acumen,” Fura immediately exclaimed in surprise. “Your Excellency, you sent a Yellow-Shirted Envoy to help Lord Wu Ming. This is an investment that’s thousands of times more profitable.”

Tejano shook his head. “This isn’t an investment. He’s my friend.”

Fura was stunned.

“I’m happy for my friend,” Tejano said happily. “He has carried too much on his shoulders. I can finally heave a sigh of relief.”

…

Qu Fang had been paying attention to all information about Wu Ming.

When the Primordial Research Institute updated the identity of the official members, Qu Fang quickly received the news.

“Earth’s Xu Jingming?” Qu Fang sat at his desk and looked at the information on the projection screen. He exclaimed in surprise, “Brother Wu Ming is indeed impressive. He managed to reach this step coming from a weak emerging civilization.”

“When Brother Wu Ming is done with his pressing work, I can begin my career.” Qu Fang had already revealed his thoughts to Xu Jingming, and the latter supported him.

Earth’s civilization was going about its day as usual. Everything was very calm.

They worked well with the Redmond Group’s Star Zone branch that was the most important factor in Earth’s gradual prosperity.

However, an envoy from the Oohook Star Alliance broke the calm!

“On behalf of the Oohook Star Alliance’s Elders Council, congratulations to Earth for nurturing a great Origin lifeform.” In the virtual world, the Oohook Star Alliance envoy smiled at Earth’s brass.

This was the first time Earth’s brass were receiving an envoy from the Oohook Star Alliance. They were originally very nervous.

“Raised a great Origin lifeform?” Earth’s brass were stunned, and their hearts raced.

“May I ask who we’ve groomed?” someone couldn’t help but ask.

The envoy smiled and said, “I believe all of you know Lord Wu Ming.”

“Yes, of course. He’s ranked first overall in the entire universe.” Earth’s brass naturally knew the hot topics in the universe.

The envoy nodded. “Lord Wu Ming became an Origin lifeform in 31 years of cultivating the evolutionary method and is the fastest peerless genius in the entire cosmic human race to become an Origin lifeform. As for Lord Wu Ming’s identity in reality…”

With the envoy’s words, the faces of the upper echelons of Earth’s civilization turned red with excitement. They had somewhat expected it, but they still pricked up their ears to listen carefully.

They had to hear the other party confirm it out loud.

“Lord Wu Ming’s identity in reality is Lord Xu Jingming of Earth!” the envoy said proudly. “Lord Xu Jingming is the most talented Origin lifeform in the history of our Oohook Star Alliance. The entire Oohook Star Alliance is proud of him.”

The brass of Earth’s civilization felt dizzy.

Lord Wu Ming?

Xu Jingming?

Lord Wu Ming is Xu Jingming? Earth’s Xu Jingming?

“The Primordial Research Institute has already made public an identity document to our Oohook Star Alliance,” the envoy said with a smile. “You can begin preparing for a grand celebration. I believe many people from the Oohook Star Alliance will participate.”

“Our Star Alliance team will arrive on Earth tomorrow and help you prepare for the celebration.” The envoy smiled. “Please revel in this happy news. I’ll take my leave first.”

The envoy was humble and polite, and he quickly left.

The brass of Earth’s civilization were thrilled. “Oh my god!!!”

“Earth has made a comeback—a huge comeback!”

“Heavens, our weak Earth has actually produced an Origin lifeform? And he’s the fastest to become an Origin lifeform in this era?”

“Xu Jingming is the great hero of Earth’s civilization!”

“No wonder Xu Jingming rejected Prince Lunardo’s recruitment. Clearly, Xu Jingming was already about to reach the threshold of an Origin lifeform as Wu Ming back then. How could he be Lunardo’s servant?”

“I wronged Xu Jingming; I even cursed him for disregarding the safety of his civilization. I regret it—it was my fault.”

“Before Xu Jingming became an Origin lifeform, he had to conceal his identity. The more talented he was, the more he had to hide it. He had to endure all of this and Lunardo’s humiliation. We even misunderstood him back then.”

“Our civilization on Earth will truly rise to prominence and usher in a great era!”

Many of the brass lost their composure.

They had been very suppressed all these years. They were fawning and nervous when facing Prince Lunardo, and they were careful when dealing with the Redmond Group’s branch office. They even requested Xu Jingming to maintain his relationship with Lord Tejano.

All of this was because Earth’s civilization was too weak.

But now, they felt elated!

They felt confident!

They felt that the future was filled with endless hope!

“Our civilization on Earth will truly become stronger.” Their eyes lit up.

“Does Xu Jingming’s family know about this?” someone suddenly asked.

“Xu Jingming’s identity was kept a secret, and it was revealed by the Primordial Research Institute. His family might not know yet.”

“We have to inform them of this good news immediately.”
