Chapter 7: Top Secret Documents

“Servant!”

The word exploded in everyone’s ears.

Especially for Xu Chu, who felt deeply insulted, his forehead veins bulging.

In the eyes of outsiders, was he merely a dog by Xu Rui’s side?

They could say the word “servant” so casually only because Xu Rui was deliberately tolerating it.

Hmph, he had always regarded Xu Rui as his beloved sister, but what about her? She openly declared that he was her servant!

Fine, fine, so that was his position in her heart?

Xu Rui, you really do have your way!

Bloodshot eyes fixed tightly on the screen, Xu Chu waited for their next conversation.

Xu Rui said, “I left him at the small tavern. The tavern owner is helping take care of him.”

“York, over the past year, I’ve tried every method to improve his genes, but none worked. There is only one last option in memory: using gene extraction technology to transfer part of my genes to him. Can you get the equipment?”

York poured her a cup of tea and smiled, “Miss, you really treat your servant too well.”

“He was born destined to serve your daily needs. His genetic defects are the result of billions of years of evolution and selection. A servant must have a weak body and short lifespan so that the role can be passed down to protect you generation after generation.”

“Miss, you even allow the servant to take your surname. That completely violates the traditions of that great race.”

Xu Rui propped her chin on one hand, her delicate, upturned nose twitching.

“We, the Qiongling race, have only me left. These old traditions no longer need to be maintained.”

“His name is Xu Chu. He is now my brother. From now on, don’t speak like that. Treat him as my real brother.”

“His lifespan is only twenty years, and this must be resolved quickly. Can you get the equipment or not?”

…

In the square, the eyes of tens of thousands were fixed on Xu Chu.

They had thought calling him “servant” was merely an insult, but it turned out to be literal.

Only then did it make sense.

No wonder Xu Rui’s attitude toward Xu Chu was always strange, filled with a superior’s disdain.

They had assumed Xu Rui despised her brother for his weak body and genetic flaws.

But it turned out that Xu Chu was not even of the Qiongling race!

He was merely Xu Rui’s servant!

This was so incredible that the crowd buzzed with discussion.

“Is this true? The Qiongling race really has servants?”

“I’ve heard that some ancient races, because their genes are too powerful, do cultivate servants specifically to serve them.”

“There should be information on the StarNet. Let’s check it out!”

Countless people opened StarNet and searched for information about the Qiongling race.

However,

Everyone reached the same conclusion.

[Top Secret Document, Access Denied]

“What’s going on? The Qiongling race’s data is highly classified?”

“That can’t be. Over millions of years, during the war between humans and the insect race, ancient race elites always led the charge. Now that the ancient races have almost vanished, their data should be public by now. Why is it still classified?”

On the stage, Liu Han’s fingers flew across his keyboard as he logged into his StarNet account to search.

Qiongling race.

[Top Secret Document, Access Denied]

Same result.

Next to him, Bu Xingye frowned, “Even you don’t have access? I’m the commander of the Imperial Star Mecha Legion. Let me try.”

Same result: no access.

Shi Qiyuan, commander of the interstellar fleet, also logged into StarNet to check.

Still no access.

Nearby, the man in military uniform, Tang Feng, and Jiang Chen likewise had no access.

All standing on the podium had distinguished records in the war against the insect race.

They were heroes with absolute power, yet none had clearance to view the data.

Could it be that only the Supreme Commander had access?

Thinking of this, everyone turned to look at the Supreme Commander.

Someone brought him a chair, but he did not sit. Instead, he clasped his hands behind his back and looked up at the ongoing screen.

Jiang Chen spoke urgently, “Supreme Commander, does the Qiongling race have some shameful secret? Why is it top secret?”

At last, the Supreme Commander seemed to awaken from a dream. He turned and gave a faint smile to the crowd.

“Hmm, now there’s no need.”

He sighed softly, “Alright, issue the order to declassify.”

The files were unlocked, and all Qiongling race information became accessible on StarNet.

The Qiongling race possessed SSSS-grade genes.

The royal bloodline was even more formidable.

Their psychic abilities were SSSS-grade, and their physical constitution SSSS-grade.

Yet, only one registered member remained.

Xu Rui.

Now, Xu Rui’s name was crossed out.

This meant the last member of the Qiongling race had died.

The Qiongling race was extinct.

No descendants.

A simple file of only five pages detailed the Qiongling race’s abilities, talents, and the histories of past elites.

Jiang Chen asked sharply, “Supreme Commander, why set such seemingly unimportant information as top secret?”

The Supreme Commander merely shook his head gently.

“You all only believe what you can see with your eyes. You may not believe my words. Keep reading.”

Xu Chu stood frozen in place.

The newly revealed data laid bare the truth for him.

After long development, Qiongling race members reached SSSS-level top-tier genes, but the race lost 90% of its fertility. All royal bloodlines were cultivated in vitro.

Because royal bloodline cultivation was extremely difficult, servants were often cultivated simultaneously.

These servants, filtered by the royal gene selection, were divided into different types: combat, nanny, and intellect.

Xu Chu was Xu Rui’s symbiotic servant.

He was the nanny type.

Weak physique, low intelligence, and only a twenty-year lifespan.

So, was Xu Rui’s treating him like trash something he deserved?

Later, when he did not die and Xu Rui discovered he was living a happy life, she became psychologically unbalanced and deliberately sabotaged him?

Another kind of hatred grew and spread deep within his heart.

Below, people were discussing.

“Looking at these files, Xu Rui has at least tried hard to improve Mr. Chu’s genes this past year.”

“What’s good about it? She’s only doing that to sell Mr. Chu off.”

“Have you noticed something? Everyone in this city respects Xu Rui. She’s not short on money. Why would she sell her servant? It’s illogical.”

“Right, the files show the Qiongling race’s assets are countless. Xu Rui inherited enormous wealth. Plus, servants’ genes are the most compatible with hers. Why would she sell him?”

“Look! Xu Rui’s back at the tavern. We’ll soon find out the answer!”
