“Messenger?”

Ding Lingdang chewed on this unexpected term and did not dare to let down her guard in the slightest. “Whose messenger—the Flood Tide?”

This time, it was Wei Qingqing who revealed a confused expression.

“What is a flood?”

She asked back.

Ding Lingdang was dazed for a moment. She realized that it did make sense. The so-called ‘flood’ was just a name that the carbon-based intelligent creatures inside the Pangu Universe gave to the super body civilization. It would be weird if Wei Qingqing knew the name.

She thought for a moment and asked, “Then, is it the ‘super-body civilization’, or the ‘Primeval civilization’?”

Everyone stared at Wei Qingqing nervously.

Her answer would change the future of the entire Pangu Universe.

“Superhuman civilization and… Primeval civilization?”

Wei Qingqing said, “If my guess is correct, you are referring to the two quasi-god civilizations that originated from the ‘Primeval Earth’ billions of years ago and eventually swept across the entire cosmos? I didn’t know that you already knew so much. If so, it will be very convenient for us to communicate. I suppose you can call me a messenger of the ‘Primeval Civilization’. However, strictly speaking, the Primeval Civilization as a whole has been destroyed a long time ago. The only survivors and the refugees are scattered in unknown places such as the Pangu Universe in the depths of the sea of stars. If you continue resisting stubbornly, I will consider myself a messenger of the ‘Resistance Alliance’!”

Hearing Wei Qingqing’s words, everyone was somewhat relieved.

As long as she was not a messenger of the ‘Flood Tide—Superhuman Civilization’, everything was good.

Even so, everyone’s heart was still in their throat.

Firstly, Wei Qingqing might not be speaking the truth. In fact, what appeared in front of everyone’s eyes might not be the real Wei Qingqing. It was possible that a certain mysterious existence that was beyond the comprehension of human beings, after swallowing Wei Qingqing’s soul, “created” a vivid imitation that even she did not know about.

Secondly, even if she was indeed Wei Qingqing and was speaking the truth, it didn’t mean that everyone was in an absolutely safe state. Since the survivors and fugitives of the Primeval Civilization could find the Pangu Universe, how far away were the claws of the Flood Tide?

Didn’t Wei Qingqing’s words compare with the information inside the Heaven’s Origin Tower and prove that the ‘Primeval Civilization’ had really been destroyed? Wasn’t the current Universe Ocean under the control of the ‘Flood—Super Body Civilization’?

What is going on?

Ding Lingdang’s eyes were sharp. She said solemnly, “Can you talk to us nicely, Sister Qingqing?”

“Of course.”

Wei Qingqing smiled and said, “I came back to the Star Glory Federation to seek the help of the entire civilization of mankind in order to complete my mission. I thought that the civilization of mankind was still in a state of mutual hostility and that it would take a lot of effort for me to unite everyone. I didn’t expect that I would sense thousands of tyrannical life-forms in the sky of the Heaven’s Origin Sector. There are even intelligent life-forms other than human beings. It seems that the Star Glory Federation and the entire sea of stars have undergone tremendous changes over the past ten years. Everyone has realized the threat and united in advance! If so, I believe you will be able to understand my mission more easily.

“However, in order to save each other’s time, can you tell me a thing or two about the latest changes in the situation between the Star Glory Federation, the Star Glory Imperium, and the Star Glory Federation? How did you do it in the past ten years? How did you gather so many experts of different forces and even different species? It is almost impossible!

“Right. What about Li Yao? He should not be hiding in such a place where so many experts are gathered, should he?”

“Li Yao…”

Ding Lingdang took a deep breath and said sadly, “He has passed away.”

“What?”

Wei Qingqing was slightly startled. Her smile was like a withered flower as she faintly sighed, “Cultivators of our generation fear death. The little brother we met on the Grand Desolate Plateau train a hundred years ago has finally embarked on such a road!”

“We can talk about Li Yao later.”

Ding Lingdang pulled herself together and said, “First of all, how can we believe that you are the real Wei Qingqing and that you came with good intentions? I’m sorry. I respect Sister Qingqing as much as Li Yao does, but it is exactly because I respect you that I have to figure out that you are the real you.”

“I understand what you mean. If you don’t want Mo Xuan and Lu Qingchen’s accident to happen again, you should be a hundred times more prudent. However, there is no answer to your question. Even I often ask myself when I look at my brand-new body, ‘Am I the real Wei Qingqing, or am I a monster who does not know that I have Wei Qingqing’s memories?’

Wei Qingqing opened her hands and said frankly, “However, on second thought, the answer to the question is unnecessary. I did not encounter the remnants of the ‘Resistance Alliance’ after I climbed over the black wall. I met them inside the black wall, in the sea of stars of the Pangu Universe. In other words, they knew the general direction of the Pangu Universe and could send a second and a millionth starship if they sent one.

“As for the issue of intelligence leakage… I don’t want to know any top secrets. I just want to know the news media and the public news that everyone on the network knows. Even if you don’t tell me, I can slowly collect it myself. What’s the difference?

“Of course, I still hope that you can trust me and complete your mission as quickly as possible. That is the only way to save our civilization.

Ding Lingdang and the other experts fell silent.

Wei Qingqing was right.

Since she could appear on ‘Kunlun’ without alarming anyone, it was quite possible that she could vanish into thin air, too. Nobody could stop her.

If she had ill intentions, she could have gathered enough intelligence through the network and the public news media. Why would she show up in front of everybody and attract their attention?

Ding Lingdang exchanged a meaningful look with the leadership of the three forces. With everyone’s permission, she told Wei Qingqing about the changes in the federation and the entire Pangu Universe during the ten years she was away.

He did not hide anything about the ancient relics and the Heaven’s Origin Sector, either. Of course, it was just a brief description that was not out of the range of the ‘Future Meeting’ and would not cause any leakage.

Wei Qingqing listened with rapt attention.

“So it was like this!”

Admiration appeared on her face when she heard the last part of the story. She exclaimed, “I knew that Li Yao was a man of miracles, but I didn’t know that the miracles he created in the end far exceeded the limits of my imagination. Such a shocking and magnificent legend would be an out-and-out legend even in the center of the cosmos!

“Then—”

Ding Lingdang looked at Wei Qingqing in the eyes and asked, “Sister Qingqing, what is your legend?”

“Me? I’m not a legend. I’m just an ordinary little bluebird who received a distress call from the depths of the multiverse by accident. I cannot accomplish such an enormous mission by myself. I can only return to my hometown and ask for the help of my compatriots.

Wei Qingqing said, “Of course, I am willing to tell you everything that I know, no matter how big or small, but please pay attention to two points.

“Firstly, in the space zone at the periphery of the Pangu Universe, I only encountered the remains of a starship of the Resistance Alliance. The starship that stored the distress letters seemed to have experienced millions of space jumps in the blink of an eye. It was shattered and almost obliterated. I only got part of its information, which is literally ‘a drop in the bucket’ and cannot describe the whole thing clearly.

“Secondly, including myself, the human civilization of the Pangu Universe is far away from the ‘quasi-god-level civilizations’ such as the Primeval Civilization and the Super Entity Civilization. Trying to figure out the life form and social structure of the quasi-god-level civilizations with our wisdom and thinking, including their methods and purposes, is like a blind man groping for an elephant. The more I say, the more mistakes I make, and the more I lead you on the wrong path.

“Another example. We are like fish that don’t even have eyes in the depths of the ocean. We rely on the garbage that falls from the surface of the ocean to imagine the form and purpose of the human civilization on land—how could we imagine it?

“Therefore, my words are just a reference. The final answer still depends on us.

“I understand. Aren’t we wandering in the dark night right now, stumbling and looking for vague answers?

Ding Lingdang said, “Even if Sister Qingqing can only provide us with a weak torch, at the very least, it can illuminate the road within a radius of a few meters and let us know which direction we should take the first step in. This is enough. Please begin, Sister Qingqing.”

“Alright.”

Wei Qingqing pondered for a moment and said, “There are so many things that I don’t know where to begin. Let’s put it this way. We all know that billions of years ago, on a planet named ‘Earth’, the first civilization of mankind was born. Then, with the arrival of the meteoroid disaster, the civilization of mankind was divided into two branches. One of them left Earth and rushed into the universe. In the end, it evolved into the two dominators of the sea of stars, the ‘Super Entity Civilization’ and the ‘Primeval Civilization’. In the end, the Primeval Civilization was defeated in a vast, long, and cruel war.

“However, a failure does not equate to total annihilation. The super civilization and the Primeval Civilization are both quasi-god civilizations of unimaginable scale. Their tentacles have already extended to billions of stars. Even though the protracted war lasted a hundred million years, it is not safe to say that all the members of the Primeval Race have been annihilated. It is as if we are the descendants of a certain branch of the Primeval Race.

“Such a situation is similar to the survival competition between the Neanderthals and the Homo sapiens on Earth in the early years. The ‘war’ between the two parties lasted tens of thousands of years, sometimes even hundreds of thousands of years. Often, the Neanderthals in one place had already been wiped out by the Homo sapiens. However, the Neanderthals in another place were still thriving and even developed civilizations in various forms.

“It can’t be helped. The multiverse ocean is too vast. In many places, even space and time have lost their significance. Even if the super body civilization is as strong as an overwhelming flood, it is impossible for it to sweep every star within billions of years.

“Besides, the Primeval Civilization was the dominator of the sea of stars in the past after all. The super body civilization paid a high price to destroy it!
