Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 1288 - 1287: A Bustling Library

"Recently, the Interstellar Alliance cracked a major criminal group suspected of crimes against humanity. It is reported that the group, in order to attract attention, disrupted the genetic makeup of alien organisms by disguising a planet as a television program for filming. Currently, the planet has been rescued, and the police are conducting further investigations."

Following that, the Salvation Team, as representatives from Sky Sea Star, visited the Interstellar Alliance and received a warm welcome.

Lu Yang has been at the Interstellar Alliance for five days, and he realized that the streets are filled with promotional posters of the Salvation Team, far more famous than Lu Yang had imagined.

The public, having learned that the "Sky Sea Star Legend" was not a TV series but actual events, became even more enthusiastic about the Salvation Team.

What surprised Lu Yang the most, however, was the emergence of his own fan club.

Although widely revered as a paragon of the Righteous Path while in the Cultivation World, the cultural norm there certainly wouldn’t allow for raising placards and parading through the streets.

The Interstellar Alliance would dare to do so.

Handsome, mysterious, and a champion of justice... These elements combined have made Lu Yang a breakout star of the Alliance.

Whenever Lu Yang thinks about similar events happening on various planets, the corners of his eyes twitch slightly.

While he enjoys the spotlight, the obsession many have with him still scares him a bit.

Discarding his complex thoughts, he walked into the library.

He had been spending his days in the library learning about the history of the Interstellar Alliance.

The history of the Interstellar Alliance, even summarized, would fill an entire row of bookshelves; simply put, it is a melting pot of various planetary civilizations.

Initially, the Interstellar Alliance only consisted of twelve members, but as more life-sustaining planets were discovered, these planets joined the Alliance, eventually forming the massive entity it is today.

However, Lu Yang could not find any records of the Candle Sky Civilization, suggesting that ships from Candle Sky have not reached here yet.

Naturally, there is also nothing about the Blue Star Civilization.

"The technology of the Interstellar Alliance is truly advanced," Lu Yang couldn’t help but remark.

"They’ve built devices to capture solar energy and are engaged in constructing on a stellar scale."

"They manufacture signal simulators for brains; mechanical bodies whose touch sensation can fully transmit to the brain, though this technology is expensive and unaffordable for the common folks."

"The most powerful weapon is the Star Annihilation Cannon, capable of blasting high-energy particles through a Star Core."

"And there are high-speed quantum computers and Ether Computers that can compute anything based on input data."

Immortal Fairy sat on the bed, swaying her little feet left and right, completely oblivious to what Little Yang was impressed by.

The capturing of solar energy is a simple task that the Yaoyang Sect can manage, brain signal simulation is just the Illusionary Realm.

And the Ether Computer that Little Yang kept praising, it sounds rather annoying.

"What’s so great about that? My sharp mind can deduce Dao Fruit, can this Ether Computer do that?"

Immortal Fairy made up her mind; if Little Yang didn’t explain it properly, she’d ignore him for a year... too long... a month... also too long.

Just all day, to annoy him!

Lu Yang hurriedly placated Immortal Fairy, whose discontent was evident on her face: "Of course, of course, such gadgets cannot compare to a Fairy who is naturally clever and can foresee through the ages."

"Hee hee, you have good taste, I forgive you."

Lu Yang shook his head helplessly and continued studying the culture of the Interstellar Alliance.

He pulled out a foldable map from an astronomy book, depicting the universe explored by the Interstellar Alliance.

Immortal Fairy disdainfully scoffed, "They’ve only explored so little, at most a corner of the universe."

"Yingtian Immortal and the others could randomly point out someone’s territory, and it would be larger than this area."

Lu Yang thought about asking how large the Fairy’s territory was, but after careful consideration, for safety’s sake, decided it’s better not to ask this kind of question that might provoke Immortal Fairy to scratch herself.

"The map is already big enough."

Just this map alone is worth the trip, and coupled with so many technological products from the Interstellar Alliance, it could completely rejuvenate the Cultivation World.

A chip the size of a fingernail fell out from between the pages, and Lu Yang picked it up and examined it under the light. Unable to figure out its purpose, he decided to put the chip back where it was.

Just as this thought surfaced, he heard an explosion not far away, followed by alarm sounds and the panicked voices of civilians.

Lu Yang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a rather luxurious sports car crash into the library, a bloodied young man emerging from it.

Then, several more cars crashed into the library, each releasing a squad of fully armed robots, apparently there to capture the young man.

Through the gaping hole created by the crash, the outside world appeared in total chaos, seemingly a result of a high-speed chase between the young man and the robot army.

The young man stumbled and ran, gunfire and bullets raining down on him, making it a very dangerous scene.

However, the young man was fortunate; the bullets only scraped by him without hitting.

People from the Interstellar Alliance are not accustomed to reading physical books, and there were scarcely any people in the library; on seeing the danger, they all fled the scene desperately.

Lu Yang felt it necessary to leave the library along with these people.

The reason was simple: the young man was running towards him.

Lu Yang quickly ducked into a gap between bookshelves.

Then he saw the young man also quickly duck beside him.

The two of them faced each other.

Lu Yang: "!!!"

Not cool, man, why are you coming over here?

"Get down!"

The young man suddenly shouted and hurriedly tackled Lu Yang.

Machine gun bullets swept over their heads, piercing through several rows of bookshelves.

One could imagine that if the young man hadn’t tackled Lu Yang, Lu Yang would still have been unharmed.

While pinning Lu Yang down, the young man rolled and threw a bomb, which exploded and temporarily put the robots into a frozen state, immobilizing them.

The young man turned his head and seriously warned Lu Yang, "Don’t think we are safe now. That was my last pulse bomb, it only temporarily disables them. We must find the chip my grandfather left here to solve this for good!"

Lu Yang thought the young man was so capable, he probably did not need his help, after all, he was just here for a visit.

Seeing Lu Yang’s reluctance to assist, the young man said sternly, "The outside is already surrounded by the robot army, neither of us can escape. Our only option now is to find that chip!"

"Do you want to know why we are being chased? Because my grandfather discovered that Artificial Intelligence wants to topple human rule!"

Lu Yang took out the fingernail-sized chip from the book again and asked, "Is this what you want?"

The young man was overjoyed, took it and compared it for a while, then disappointingly returned it to Lu Yang.

"No, not this one. There should be my grandfather’s mark on the right chip."

Lu Yang was even more confused; where did the chip sandwiched in the book come from?

Just as Lu Yang was puzzled, another explosion sounded from the other side of the library. A valiant young woman also stumbled in, being chased.

The woman had good eyesight; despite the distance and the smoke, she could clearly see what Lu Yang was holding.

Her eyes lit up, and excitedly she said, "That’s the one, the evidence of the financial tycoon’s illegal exploitation of the Constant Star is right here!"

Lu Yang: "..."

Maybe I shouldn’t have come to the library today?
