Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 159: Chapter 159: Isn’t it worth going all out for my sake?

“`

All the major bases were red-faced and arguing over who should be the overall commander of this joint operation.

There were dozens of bases and nearly a hundred families involved in this operation, with just the families from the Super-Base numbering more than a dozen.

Adding some smaller families and lone wolves, the number of Mutators participating in this operation was nearly ten thousand.

Such a large number of people definitely needed unified command, but who would be the commander?

The small families and lone wolves didn’t mind; they were happy to follow the main force, but the people from the big families thought differently and were vying for the position of overall commander.

Lin Shen saw many familiar faces, Ouyang Yudu, Bai Shenfei, Mo Shengqi, Zuo Qinglong, Zuo Qingmeng, and others were all there.

Xu Tiange was also present, but considering the strength of his family, let alone taking a place on the main stage, even a spot in the lower stands was at the very back.

The sharp-eyed Xu Tiange spotted Wei Wufu and hurried over.

“Brother Wei, when did you get back?” As he spoke, Xu Tiange looked over Lin Shen beside Wei Wufu but failed to recognize him; the Carapace he wore now made him look too different from before, making it hard to identify him as the same person.

“Just now, what’s the situation?” Wei Wufu asked.

“It’s those people from the big families who all want to be the overall commander of the operation. Right now, the three most popular candidates are Zuo Qinglong from the Sword Alliance, Bai Shenfei from Sea Corn Base, and Huang Xiaohu from Armed Base,” Xu Tiange whispered the situation to them briefly.

“Why isn’t Ouyang Yudu among them?” Lin Shen found it strange that with Ouyang Yudu’s strength and fame, he wasn’t mentioned.

Lin Shen deliberately used a voice-changing technique when he spoke, similar to how he had impersonated his fourth brother, which prevented Xu Tiange from recognizing his voice.

“God’s Love Base is supporting Sea Corn Base; they are in cahoots. Their candidate is Bai Shenfei,” Xu Tiange explained. “The three most popular candidates all have several large families backing them, which is why they are the frontrunners.”

“What’s your name, friend?” After finishing his explanation, Xu Tiange sized up Lin Shen and asked.

“Just call me Tian, and this is my brother,” Lin Shen replied, pointing at Wei Wufu.

Lin Shen still held respect for Tiancheng, as impersonating someone from Tiancheng didn’t seem shameful.

“So you’re Brother Tian. I’m Xu Tiange, from the Xu Family of Yashen Base, also Brother Wei’s brother. So now we’re all family,” Xu Tiange said with a smile upon learning that Lin Shen was from Wei Family of Tiancheng.

The three of them stood at the back and listened for a while; each family had its own opinions, and no one was willing to concede to another.

“This is like a bunch of loose sand,” Lin Shen said with a helpless shake of his head. At this rate, even if a commander was forcefully chosen, it would be hard to command unity after reaching the Realm King Planet.

“Heh, in-fighting is what humans are best at; this is just a small scene,” Xu Tiange laughed.

After half a day of meetings, they still failed to elect a commander. They prepared to vote the next day, and whoever got the most votes would become the commander.

When the meeting dispersed, Wei Wufu took Lin Shen to meet Xun Jian, the person in charge from Sea Corn Base, since he had the agenda.

“Brother Wei, come back to camp with me. The day after tomorrow is when the Realm King Cultivation Device will be activated, and by then you can enter with Goddess Consort and the others,” Xun Jian welcomed Wei Wufu very warmly. The Wei Family was well-known for their fighting prowess and was popular wherever they went.

Wei Wufu and Lin Shen had intended to do just that, so naturally, they didn’t refuse.

“Why didn’t Lin Shen come?” Bai Shenfei, who was following beside Xun Jian, looked at Wei Wufu and then at Lin Shen next to him, frowning as she asked.

“He’s occupied,” Wei Wufu replied.

Bai Shenfei didn’t ask any further, but Mo Shengqi was very curious and looked Lin Shen over, saying, “Does the Wei Family of Tiancheng also cultivate Evolution Theory?”

“Naturally, they do,” Lin Shen responded casually.

The reason Mo Shengqi asked this was because everyone from the great families knew that the Wei Family members all practiced the Phoenix Purple Qi Jue.

The Phoenix Purple Qi Jue originated from the powerful cosmic Phoenix Clan and is one of the nine great secrets of the clan not passed on to outsiders.

The first generation of the Wei Family who walked the earth obtained it by chance during their adventures in the universe. Since then, the Wei Family members have all practiced the Phoenix Purple Qi Jue.

Each generation of the Wei Family only has one person who walks the earth, and this generation’s earth walker was Wei Wufu. The affairs of Tiancheng with the outside world all depended on the earth walker until Wei Wufu reached the peak of Ascension Level. Then he needed to return to Tiancheng to advance to the next level, after which he could only stay in Tiancheng to guard the underground space, and another earth walker would be chosen.

The fact that Wei Wufu was chosen as the earth walker showed that the Wei Family really had no one else. Otherwise, Wei Wufu, who was not good at interacting with people, would not have been a suitable candidate for the earth walker.

If there had been any other viable person, it’s likely they wouldn’t have chosen Wei Wufu.

“My surname isn’t Wei. Just call me Tian,” Lin Shen felt compelled to explain.

He was impersonating a person from Tiancheng, not from the Wei Family, as those who knew Tiancheng were aware that the Wei Family had only a few members and couldn’t suddenly have a new, fully-grown person.

“I see,” Mo Shengqi thought Lin Shen was one of those who voluntarily went to Tiancheng to help the Wei Family guard the underground space, so it was normal for Lin Shen to practice any Base Mutation skill.

After saying goodbye to Xu Tiange, the two of them followed the people from Sea Corn Base to their camp.

After dinner, Lin Shen strolled alone by the lake. In reality, he was practising Stepping on the Immortal Court, but to others, it looked like he was just wandering.

As he walked for a while, he suddenly saw Bai Shenfei approaching from this side.

Lin Shen, seeing Bai Shenfei dressed in a mosaic, felt very annoyed, thinking that the Fire Seed was probably out of his reach now.

“Why not try again?” When they faced each other by the lake, Bai Shenfei suddenly stared at Lin Shen and said.

“Miss Bai, what are you talking about?” Lin Shen was slightly startled, aware that Bai Shenfei suspected his identity, but still played dumb.

“Your disguise may fool others, but not me,” Bai Shenfei said coldly. “Why not give ‘Talent Theory’ another try? By choosing ‘Evolution Theory,’ you are limiting your future to a visible end, with no other possibilities.”

Bai Shenfei had gone so far that Lin Shen couldn’t pretend anymore and could only sigh, “Some things can’t be forced. My talent has determined that I can’t cultivate ‘Talent Theory.’ What use is there in persisting?”

“As long as you work hard, there still could be a possibility. ‘Talent Theory’ looks at talent, but it also requires strong will and determination. Perhaps if you can’t start cultivating it, it’s just that your will and determination are not firm enough,” Bai Shenfei continued.

“It’s just one Evolution Skill, and I don’t think it’s necessary to work so hard for it.” Lin Shen frowned slightly, not knowing why Bai Shenfei was so fixated on him practicing ‘Talent Theory.’

“Is it not worth working hard for me?” Bai Shenfei suddenly said that, leaving Lin Shen stunned for a moment.
