I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

"What kind of monster are you, really!" Zhang Menglong's friends couldn't hold back their shock any longer.

No wonder he's daring enough to have such an attitude towards the boss of the Twin Whales Cosmic Empire, even people more impressive than him are here serving him.

"Menglong, can you explain this to us? We're really confused," Old Zhou's mind was in a mess. Hearing each thing individually he could understand, but putting it together, he just couldn't grasp it.

According to their understanding, Zhang Menglong was just someone who left a Level One Civilization, how could he pull off something like this?

"Actually, we have to go back quite a long time," Zhang Menglong said. He wasn't planning on hiding it anymore, after all, now he was strong enough that even if this secret was spread across the entire universe, who could do anything to him?

Even Ganei, Makabaka, and the other servants perked up their ears. This was what they most wanted to know—the origin of the young man who turned the entire universe's underground exposition upside down.

"About five or six thousand years ago, my ancestor acquired a treasure, which is my Super God Academy," Zhang Menglong gave a rough overview of his family's history.

With every segment of history he recounted, their expressions became increasingly astonished.

No wonder Zhang Menglong's family was so wealthy, no wonder Zhang Menglong had knowledge and power that shouldn't exist in this era.

No wonder all those ancient ruins were linked to Zhang Menglong's family—his ancestor got hold of a legendary system!

"Damn, I always thought this kind of thing only happened in sci-fi novels. I can't believe it really happened to you!" Wang Ling's face was full of envy, jealousy, and resentment.

Thinking back to when he first met Zhang Menglong, he, a top-notch second-generation wealthy guy, was actually competing with a guy who had a cheat code in wealth—it was somewhat dumb.

"This is unbelievable." Old Zhou and the others clicked their tongues in amazement.

"Later on, an ancestor of mine named Zhang Kai found the spaceship left by extraterrestrial civilization scouts on Earth and traveled the universe for thousands of years on it," Zhang Menglong explained. "Relying on knowledge and skills far exceeding our universe's highest civilization, he made quite a name for himself and established some foundations."

"How much did he establish?" Wang Ling hurriedly asked.

"The highest-grade account in the universe's largest bank, a bunch of legends, and the most badass woman in the entire universe so far," Zhang Menglong summarized Zhang Kai's achievements succinctly.

"No wonder you could bring back a Level Five peak civilization's fleet; I was wondering if you stole, cheated, or snatched it," Qin Feng finally understood everything.

"With you here, won't our Earth civilization soar?"

"Can't say if it'll soar," Zhang Menglong smiled. "If a civilization develops too quickly, it's actually not a good thing. I don't think I need to explain the story of pulling a seedling to help it grow."

"True," Old Zhou and the others nodded. If they wanted, they could definitely move to a Level Five civilization's planet to live, but even if they lived in a high-grade civilization's world, their science, sociology, worldview, etc., couldn't be elevated to the corresponding level. Then they'd just become dead weight.

"But I can guarantee, in the entire universe, no civilization dares to mess with our Earth civilization; anyone who comes, I'll deal with them!"

...

Zhang Menglong's words were not hidden from Ganei, Makabaka, and those servants.

They had always speculated about Zhang Menglong's background. In their concept, behind Zhang Menglong might be an invincible cosmic big shot or an incredibly mysterious and unknown powerful civilization.

But they realized their outlook was too narrow! They even found that their worldview had been overturned.

Currently, as regards this universe, they knew only theoretically about the existence of other parallel universes, but so far, no facts or evidence could prove this point.

No wonder Zhang Menglong, a mere Level Four life form, could refine Power Pills and Divine Strength Pills, things so powerful that even Level Seven and Eight life forms were eager for them.

He could even possess that mysterious flame, easily reforging an alchemist's failed product into a Level Seven martial weapon.

Even the martial arts manuals he casually took out were treasures in this universe.

Turns out he had long encountered the universe beyond this universe!

If there are levels of civilization, then universes must also have levels. If there's a universe stronger than theirs outside, then they shouldn't use the standards of this world to measure Zhang Menglong.

In this view, all the miracles he created seemed to be a matter of course.

"Did you hear that?"

"We all heard!" The servants began to whisper, "This guy's luck, you have to admit, is really too good!"

"I used to think about how to get back at him once I got my freedom back, I must've been courting death!"

"Brothers, I suddenly think being his servant might not be a bad thing!"

"Bullshit! If you want to be a servant, go ahead—I don't want to be a servant for a lifetime. Once 1000 years are up, I'm leaving!"

"Idiot! Do you have no vision?"

"I also think your vision is too small. Think about it, he has so many good things; effortlessly he could create a top life form. If we are loyal, become people he trusts, even as trusted servants, imagine what we could gain?"

"Exactly! Maybe we could even break through to Level Eight life forms or even Level Nine. Right now, we're nobodies, but if we follow him, we might end up just below one man and above ten thousand!"

"Makes sense!"

"In the future, let's do our jobs well. If we get the chance, we must show him our loyalty. Who knows, our status might far exceed what it is now!"

In an instant, the servants behind Zhang Menglong seemed renewed—not in appearance, but in their hearts, their beliefs, including Tiz, this Level Eight peak life form!

...

"Wuhu!" Zhang Menglong suddenly spotted the private spaceship in the sky, "That Otis is here, let's go meet him!"

Star Watcher brought them to the fleet command center before Otis arrived.

Otis first used his Artificial Intelligence to search Earth's languages and learned them thoroughly at the fastest speed.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, I am Otis. I hope you won't mind my unexpected visit," stepping out of the spaceship, Otis bowed deeply to Zhang Menglong, with respect and awe in his eyes and tone.

"Not at all, even if you didn't come to find me, I would have come to you," Zhang Menglong smiled. "What's this visit for?"

"Well, since you reside in our Twin Whales Cosmic Empire, I have the duty to take good care of you and your civilization. Is there anything you need?"

"Oh, nothing much," Zhang Menglong said, "Just make sure those haphazard civilizations don't bother us. I want my civilization to develop rapidly without outside wars affecting us."

"I understand. I'll return immediately and check the situation of the civilizations near you, eliminating all wars, to create a peaceful environment for you. And I won't interfere with anything on your planet. If any civilization displeases you, just tell me."

"Very well," Zhang Menglong nodded with satisfaction, "As long as you do a good job, I've got the entire Twin Whales Cosmic Empire covered!"
