Dr. Primitive is dead, no doubt about it.
Its existence was erased from the roots.
Besides the name "Dr. Primitive," no one can find any trace it ever left behind.
Everyone has a past.
Unless you're an "Aeon."
No matter what path you take, you're fated to become a god, with no way to counter it.
All offense and no defense, that's a losing game.
Even if you brought in Lan himself, He couldn't do it.
If He could really do something like that, He would have killed Yaoshi long ago.
Of course, just because Lan can't do it doesn't mean Leon can't.
Don't ask how it was done, it just was!◎□
You'll understand sooner or later, once he's had more time to mature.
After reaching the apex of my Path, I will definitely join forces with my predecessors to give that Progenitor of Plagues a good thrashing!
"Come on, I'll take you to the Xianzhou to have some fun."
Leon said, slinging the Vanquisher back over his shoulder and turning towards March 7th.
The best place for Luanpo is undoubtedly the Xianzhou Alliance.
They have a professional training program for soldiers there. In any case, he can't raise her himself.
Damn, having her run around with him when she's just a kid? That's ridiculous.
Just look at the kind of battles he fights. Having Luanpo tag along would be sending her straight to her death.
Although Luanpo's stats are ridiculously high.
After stepping onto a Path, she improved even further, enough to look down on the masses.
But that's as far as it goes.
You have to understand, there are many beings in the universe who are above the masses.
Like Leon.
He gives everyone time to chase his shadow, until his shadow disappears into the distance.
Can you keep up, rookie?
With Leon's unyielding will, "like floating clouds that may hide the moon but not the eyes, seeking the Path with a heart of iron even in death."
He will always be the longest river, the highest mountain when it comes to stats.
Even looking many years into the future, this will still be true.
Great God Lan: Luanpo, you are now an Emanator of The Hunt. Your stats are high enough to be invincible among Emanators of the same level. Summary: S-Tier. Recommended pull.
Luanpo: Then what is Leon?
Great God Lan: Leon? It's been a long time since I was called that.
The pressure!
I am the Celestial Emperor, destined to suppress all enemies in the world!
No joke, since his debut, he has never fought a battle against anyone weaker than an Emanator.
It's really not something Luanpo can get involved in. The aftershocks alone would be more than she can handle.
It's one thing for March 7th to follow him.
She has Changyeyue as a safety net, so at least her safety isn't a concern.
Leon has to make a statement: please don't question his stats, thank you.
Forget one Polka, even if ten Polkas showed up.
If he wanted to protect them, Luanpo and March 7th would definitely be safe and sound.
It's not that he can't protect her, but that Luanpo won't get any training if she follows him.
Her main quest is different from March 7th's.
March 7th's main quest, in Leon's view,
is to leave behind proof that she, as a person, once existed.
By using her camera to record all kinds of journeys.
Using the new "memories" born from this process to fight against an unknown "past."
According to Changyeyue,
not retrieving her "memories" is the best ending for her.
Leon thought about this too.
He is determined to retrieve the "past" for her.
He has never bowed his head to anyone.
This time will be no exception. Whatever trouble there is, it can come straight to him.
Watch him push it back with his stats.
But to put what Changyeyue said another way,
doesn't it just mean that if March 7th reclaims her "memories," she will be consumed by her "past"?
A newly established personality,
faced with the veteran persona that has existed since the birth of Fuli, would probably vanish in a second.
He doesn't want March 7th to disappear.
On this point, Leon and Changyeyue are the same.
It's just that Changyeyue thinks it's best to maintain the status quo, while he prefers for March 7th to become whole and complete.
In the end, the choice must be made by the person herself.
But that doesn't stop him from making plans for it.
To get her "memories" back without being replaced by them,
to achieve this, there is only one way.
And that is to have a "present" that is equal in weight to the "past."
Only when the "present" outweighs the "past" can the past truly remain in the past.
By constantly leaving traces with him, only this can gradually enrich the person that is March 7th.
Finally, as March 7th, she can confront her nameless past self.
But Luanpo is different from her.
It's easy to be a Galaxy Ranger. As long as your conscience is clear, you're a Galaxy Ranger.
But to be a great hero, you need some decent stats as a foundation.
Luanpo has the stats, but they're not yet high enough to reach his level of being oblivious to the laws of heaven and earth.
Therefore, she needs some guided instruction to help her apply her stats more effectively in actual combat.
If he were to teach her, he could only teach:
"This is the 'nock arrow' button, this is the 'draw string and form arrow' button, and this is the 'shoot' button. Alright, you've now learned the most skillful operation."
"See that Polka over there? Now you can use a one-two-three combo to show your strength and scare her to tears."
That's it. He can't teach anything meaningful.
The Xianzhou Alliance is definitely better at teaching than he is.
After all, they have so many soldiers, they must have plenty of experience in this area.
Besides, he has connections there.
For Luanpo, there's no better place to go.
"The Xianzhou Alliance?"
March 7th often heard those words; many people used them as a prefix when addressing Leon.
"Yes, the Xianzhou Alliance."
Leon nodded. "Actually, I'm a general in name only. I'll take you back to my old home to have a look."
He looked at Luanpo, thought for a moment, and added:
"That's the territory of the Great God Lan. I'm sure you'll like it too."
Luanpo nodded with a partial understanding.
In her ears, this sentence became:
"The Xianzhou Alliance, a gathering place for the shinobi heroes of the Ninja Capital. It's under my protection, totally legit, don't worry."
"Let me make a call first and see which Xianzhou ship is the closest."
With that, Leon took out his jade abacus and opened the contact for someone who was nominally a Marshal but was actually Yao Guang.
"Hello, hello, Jing Yuan."
...
The Xianzhou Alliance.
The Alliance welcomed another major event today: the chosen disciple of the Reignbow Arbiter was returning.
Internal communication of the Seven Arbiter-Generals:
[Marshal] Hua: Leon is returning to the Alliance. Who's going to greet him?
[Fanghu] Xuanquan: I can't go. The Fanghu has suffered considerable losses and needs to recuperate for the next few years. But he can come straight here, I won't turn him away if he needs something.
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: Haha, after raising hell with the Corporation and The Family, is this ranger finally planning to settle down for a bit?
[Xuling] Youwu: ? What do you mean?
[Xuling] Youwu: What do you mean "raising hell with the Corporation and The Family"? I wake up and feel like I'm being left out of the loop. What's going on?
The Xianzhou Xuling has its own unique mission and generally has no contact with the outside world.
If it weren't for the great importance of the Reignbow Arbiter's disciple, this ghost of a person Youwu would never have surfaced.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: Why is he returning to the Alliance?
[Yuque] Yao Guang: He didn't say, and I don't dare to divine him. I might lose my life.
[Zhuming] Huaiyan: Where is young friend Leon? This old man will go and pick him up right now and hold a grand welcoming ceremony for him!
[Yuque] Yao Guang: Elder Yan, you should just rest.
[Yuque] Yao Guang: The closest Xianzhou to him is the Luofu. He's already on his way. This good fortune belongs to General Jing Yuan; we're out of luck.
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: Haha, that's truly my honor. The Luofu is the right place for retirement, I tell you.
[Yuque] Yao Guang: You know what I'm trying to say.
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: Eh, who can say for sure when it comes to the feelings of the younger generation? It's best to let them develop freely, without getting involved.
[Marshal] Hua: If you really want to make him stay, why don't you make a move yourself?
[Yuque] Yao Guang: Me?
[Yuque] Yao Guang: My dear Marshal, do you think anyone would like an old hag?
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: I wouldn't be so sure. The General of the Yuque is still graceful and charming; you needn't worry about that.
[Yuque] Yao Guang: If I really went for it, you guys would be unhappy.
[Fanghu] Xuanquan: I remember this disciple often mentions something about 'cup size'. Do you think you have it?
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: I can attest to that. It seems he really does value that the most.
[Yuque] Yao Guang: I think I do.
[Fanghu] Xuanquan: Were you laughing when you typed that?
[Zhuming] Huaiyan: What is all this nonsense?
[Marshal] Hua: What is all this nonsense? +1

[Yaoqing] Yueyu: It's nothing, Elder Yan. Let's get back to the previous topic.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: General Leon is going to the Luofu, right? I recall that the Yaoqing's relocation is also in a few days?
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: Correct. General Yueyu, by bringing this up, are you hoping to invite General Leon to attend the succession ceremony?
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: Yes. I know General Leon's temperament—he acts with swift determination. I'm afraid he won't stay for long, so I'll have to trouble General Jing Yuan to pass on the message.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: Just say that the selection tournament for the Yaoqing General's successor will be held in the next few days. If possible, please grace us with your presence.
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: I didn't expect you to retire so soon, General Yueyu. I'm envious. My own successor is still nowhere to be found.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: One will come eventually.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: The future belongs to the young people. It belongs to us as well, but ultimately, it belongs to the young. Our hopes are placed in them.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: It's called retirement, but in reality, it's just giving the younger generation a chance to temper themselves.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: From the moment I joined the Alliance, I decided to dedicate my entire life to the great work of the Reignbow Arbiter. The battlefield is where I belong.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: But we can't always wait until an Arbiter-General dies to choose a successor, can we? That's too morbid. Let me be the one to break this curse, okay?
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: Haha, excellent, excellent.
[Luofu] Jing Yuan: I will pass on the message. As for whether he will go, I can't guarantee it. After all, you know his position is above mine.
[Yaoqing] Yueyu: I know. I won't insist. Thank you, General Jing Yuan.
While they were chatting enthusiastically, one Xianzhou ship felt the indelible pain of exclusion, silently shedding a small tear for being an outsider.
Sigh, cliques. The fandom is in shambles.
...
Space Station.
Before setting off for the Xianzhou.
Leon decided to take Luanpo to see Herta first.
To give the kid a full check-up first, to avoid any other hidden problems that haven't been resolved.
"You're back. Any gains?"
Herta came forward to welcome his return.
"Here's the gain."
Leon pushed Luanpo, who was beside him, forward.
"A test subject from 'Genesis Forest'?"
Herta glanced at the girl who was almost shoulder-height with her puppet.
"Yes."
"What about the research data? Did you get it?"
Herta asked again.
"Didn't get it, but it doesn't matter anymore. They can't stir up any more trouble."
Dr. Primitive is already dead. What does this aftershock from Genesis Forest even count for?
Just wait for other Galaxy Rangers to show up and blast them all.
In any case, their leader is dead, so he doesn't need to worry about it.
"Huh? What do you mean 'it doesn't matter anymore'?"
Herta crossed her arms, her right index finger tapping continuously on her left elbow.
"Don't tell me you killed Dr. Primitive again?"
Herta said, puzzled.
She had a gut feeling that he'd pulled off something huge again.
In fact, this guy Leon was never idle. He was either pulling off something huge, or on his way to pulling off something huge.
"You've even learned to answer before I ask. Not bad."
Leon nodded.
"...Are you serious?"
Herta thought she would feel a stir in her heart, but in reality, it was just business as usual. She could only feign the shock she was supposed to feel through her words.
He'd pulled too many crazy stunts.
Just the feat of busting out of the Corporation's headquarters and killing two Emanators of Preservation along the way...
...was enough to make people feel that nothing he did next would be surprising.
"You bet, my friend." Leon made a gesture at her.
"Are you sure you killed the real body?"
Herta knew Dr. Primitive's capabilities well. If it were that easy to kill, it would have died at the hands of the Galaxy Rangers long ago.
"Don't worry. Not even ash remains."
Hearing this answer, Herta fell silent.
She was thinking, thinking about who in this world could possibly stop the man before her.
For a moment, she really couldn't think of anyone.
"Sigh, I give up. You and your brute force."
Herta felt helpless about this, left with only this weary sigh about his strength.
If you were to ask who in this world is closest to the apex of a Path, just one step away from touching the throne of an Aeon...
...then Leon would certainly be one, and Zandar before him would be another.
Both are at the pinnacle of their respective Paths.
They represent the highest limits displayed, and they happen to be two extremes.
Needless to say, Zandar is the pinnacle of the wise.
Creating an Aeon from scratch—his greatness needs no further explanation.
And Leon, the pinnacle of the warrior.
Although it's debatable and not absolute, unlike the aforementioned Zandar, whom no one dares to refute.
But at least the strength he has shown is absolutely sufficient.
Defeating four Emanators in less than three days.
If Herta hadn't recently heard the rumor that Penacony had been assigned to the eighth Arbiter-General of the Xianzhou Alliance...
...she probably would have thought it was only three.
These four Emanators.
Two were killed under high-pressure circumstances, one was the Harmonious Choir backed by Xipe, and one was the endlessly resourceful Dr. Primitive.
The caliber of these victories is self-evident.
Who can defeat him? Who dares say they can defeat him?
Even if Zephyro or Polka themselves came, they probably wouldn't have that confidence.
"This little girl of yours has a memetic virus?"
Herta is a genius, not some crude brute.
His purpose for coming here was clear at a glance.
"Yes. She probably has quite a few other issues. Please check her carefully."
Leon did not deny it.
"So a genius like me has become your on-call physician. Have you thought about how you're going to repay me?"
Herta let out a scoff.
