The moment Ji Yanran put on the Crystal Shoes, they started to shine . The Crystal Shoes then began to grow . In a flash, they wrapped up Ji Yanran’s body like a magnificent set of crystal armor .
“Honey, are you okay?” Han Sen was shocked, not knowing what was going on .
“I’m okay . These shoes are weird, though . I feel energized, like I could punch a mountain in two . ” Ji Yanran moved her body and spoke in a tone of surprise .
Seeing that Ji Yanran could control her body just fine, Han Sen felt some relief . He nervously asked, “Can you take them off?” “I don’t know how to take this off,” Ji Yanran said .
As Han Sen frowned, Ji Yanran’s crystal armor suddenly started to grow smaller . Before long, she was just wearing the Crystal Shoes as she had been . Shortly after, they slipped themselves off her feet
“I think these shoes are pretty good . You might benefit from them following you . They could help you out . After all, they are very powerful,” Ji Yanran said .
“I don’t think they can help, but I would be grateful if they didn’t hurt me . ” Han Sen was not as hopeful as Ji Yanran . The shoes were still very bizarre items, and that did not make him feel safe .
Han Sen turned around and walked into the house . The Crystal Shoes followed Han Sen again instead of Ji Yanran .
Han Sen could not shake their pursuit no matter what he did . So, he just went about his tasks while trying to ignore their presence .
Han Sen refined the new Life Geno Essences and obtained an extra sixteen super geno points . That brought his point-total up to fifty .
“With my power, it shouldn’t be difficult to max that out now . I need to level up those geno cores first, though . If they don’t reach super, they won’t be very strong,” Han Sen thought to himself .
Han Sen’s fitness was good enough, and what he needed to do most right then was practice and level up his geno cores . So, Han Sen didn’t go out much for a time . He spent most of his time practicing . He wanted to get his four geno cores up to gemstone class .
Four of his geno cores had reached gold class, but they didn’t reach the top of the leaderboard .
Han Sen was going to wait until they were almost ready to become gemstone geno cores . When they were, he’d level them up . If he didn’t, it’d be too obvious .
And because of his fear of the Crystal Shoes, Han Sen was extra adamant about not going anywhere . He just kept practicing and leveling up his skills quickly .
Over the next few months, Bulwark Umbrella, Crystal Core, Real Blood, and Coin took the first position . Then, they disappeared and caused another surprise across the Fourth God’s Sanctuary .
All the beings tried guessing who might have been the owners of those four geno cores . Try as they might, though, none could guess .
The geno cores reached gemstone class next . All Han Sen would need then was a breakthrough . So, Han Sen decided to max out his super geno points so he could level them up to super geno cores .
But sadly, he couldn’t get rid of the Crystal Shoes . After a long time of being together, nothing had happened with the shoes . And as strange as it was to have them following him around, Han Sen was at least able to pocket the shoes to avoid the prying eyes of others .
But before Han Sen took off, he noticed he had received a message from Ji Ruozhen . He said he had uncovered something in his investigation .
“Do you know where the New Community’s leader is?” Han Sen asked .
After a long period of investigation, the results led to Planet Tariq . If the New Community leader was hiding out at one of the three planets, Planet Tariq was the most likely . Ji Ruozhen provided Han Sen with all the information he was able to .
“Planet Tariq…” Han Sen thought to himself as he perused the information given .
“What are you planning to do? If you need help, I can provide you with some ships the Ji family owns,” Ji Ruozhen said .
“There is no need . ” Han Sen didn’t plan on bringing in any battleships for an assault, as his beetle would be more than enough .
Even if the leader wasn’t on the planet, Han Sen still had to go and see if he could confirm the information . If he didn’t, the people of the New Community would assume he was weak .
Inside a room, Qing Ya was playing with a little box . The box had been opened, and the item it contained was in front of him . He gazed at it in profound interest .
“That is the item . That means he is the leader of the New Community . ” Qing Ya was talking to himself as he played with the box .
“Mister Qing Ya, the leader has asked you to visit the meeting room . ” A woman’s voice contacted him through the communicator .
“Okay, I’ll be right there . ” Qing Ya put the little box away, pushed the door open, and went to the meeting room as instructed .
Many people were already sitting there when he arrived . There were many humans and shura there, and even Tina was present . The leader himself wasn’t .
“Where is the leader?” Qing Ya asked the others as he went to sit down .
A shura man approached and sat down on the leader’s seat He said icily, “The leader is sick, so I will be hosting this meet . ” “Are you qualified?” Qing Ya laughed .
“What do you think?” The shura placed his hands on the table . He was holding a metallic object, and when they all saw what it was, their faces changed .
“Okay, if that is what the leader has declared, then we will listen . ” Qing Ya shrugged .
“Good . ” The shura man gave Qing Ya a silent stare, and then went on to say, “The leader is not happy with your performance . You have failed twice, and twice embarrassed us . ”
“What could I do? Who knew Blood Bone Witch and Fallen Slaughter were that stupid?” Qing Ya rebutted .
“There are no excuses for your failure . I will be in charge of this operation now . You just need to send our forces to Shadow Shelter,” the shura man said .
“Okay . But who exactly are we sending?” Qing Ya asked .
“Me, and our grateful shura fighters . ” The shura man spoke calmly, but it was easy to discern the arrogance permeating his tone of voice .
“All of them?” Qing Ya looked at him strangely .
“Yes, all of them . No failure is permitted this time . We have to kill Han Sen . ” The shura man then looked at Qing Ya and asked, “Do you have a problem with this?”
“No . I know full-well your abilities . This is fine,” Qing Ya said .
“Good . Do your appointed task and we’ll do the rest . Do that and we won’t fail . ” The shura man sounded very confident .
