The third layer of the world is currently the highest layer.
The leader of the old noble family was a grand duke, a man of deep cunning. He met directly with Lin Xu, praising him while testing him.
Then the Duke gave Lin Xu an order, instructing him to work with the head butler to hunt down the Void Humans in the third layer of wilderness.
Those were void creatures, with humanoid forms, human intelligence, and even city-states.
But those Void Peoples have been attacking the island's main world, attempting to annihilate humanity.
Lin Xu was curious about the origins of the Void People, because after Phantom saw these people, she recalled a lot of memories and said that these Void People were not simple creatures.
He and the head steward then began to divide the tasks and deal with the Void People.
However, the head butler was an arrogant and domineering person who did not approve of Lin Xu and held him in contempt.
Lin Xu also discovered that the big shot who had been secretly pressuring Huang Meng and trying to make her a kept woman was this head butler.
Therefore, during his campaign against the Void People, Lin Xu devised a plan to thwart the chief steward's plot to betray him and decisively killed the chief steward.
During this process, he also came into contact with the high-ranking members of the Void People, developed some friendships with them, and was favored by the Void People's princess.
The Void People have two kingdoms. Lin Xu had the means to conquer one through appeasement. He originally wanted to attack the other, but the prince of the other kingdom took the initiative to surrender.
Lin Xu thus became a great hero who defeated the Void People, and was hailed as a household name by the old nobles.
After returning to the third island world, Lin Xu settled the Void People into his territory, while the Void Person Prince sought a high position and learned about human military strength and structure.
After an outing, the Void Prince betrayed humanity. He feigned surrender to ascertain humanity's true intentions before planning to completely overthrow them.
The Void Prince intends to kill Lin Xu first, then eliminate the old nobleman, so that the Void people can completely occupy this space.
However, the Void Prince was completely unaware of Lin Xu's strength and was easily defeated. When he regretted surrendering again, he was directly killed by Lin Xu.
Lin Xu then dealt with the prince's subordinates, completely integrating the Void People and making these aliens his own men.
At this time, Phantom gradually cultivated and had gradually returned to her original form as a great beauty.
Her memory had also recovered considerably. Upon seeing the Void Man, she was extremely shocked and revealed his origins.
It turns out that the Void People are descendants of the former divine messengers.
The so-called divine messenger is a new figure created by the gods after the Shadow Clan gradually fell out of favor.
That was a big shot; he possessed extremely high talent for enlightenment and had abilities similar to Lin Xu's.
But this important figure had no affection for the Shadow Clan, yet he had a special fondness for humans.
It is said that this great man had a human wife, and their offspring were the Void People.
Originally, the Voidlings lived among humans without any distinction, but for some unknown reason, they were driven out of the island world and became "wild monsters".
Phantom said there must be a conspiracy involved, and shouted that Lin Xu had discovered some hidden history.
Lin Xu casually dealt with the Phantom, realizing that the Void Man was no simple matter.
Human nobles are a class that has existed since the Shadow Clan. They couldn't possibly be unaware of history, and they must know the origins of the Void People.
But they still treat the Voidlings as wild monsters, so they must have some kind of plan.
Lin Xu also remembered someone else.
When he created the Void City, he once saw a broken ruin, which was the statue of that divine messenger.
Through that ruin, he could examine his own Enlightenment talent.
His ranking is number one, surpassing the previous number one person with the complicated name.
He is now certain that the figure with the complicated name is the messenger of the gods.
In other words, his talent for enlightenment is even stronger than that of the divine messenger.
But that's not the most important thing. What's more important is that when he was exploring for his talent in the ruins, he encountered a stunningly beautiful woman with a strange cat.
This woman had a fantastic figure and was a beautiful blonde woman who looked like a goddess.
The woman's cat had long pink ears and could fly.
This cat exuded an unusually terrifying aura, and Lin Xu felt pressured when facing it.
When Lin Xu tested his talent, the woman immediately recognized his potential and was shocked to find that he was even stronger than the divine messenger.
When the woman spoke of the divine messenger, her tone was very casual, as if she were very familiar with him, and she did not treat him as some great figure.
At this point, Lin Xu began to suspect the woman's identity.
He thought to himself that this woman was either the wife of the divine messenger or some very familiar acquaintance.
By that calculation, that woman must be at least several thousand years old, and definitely not a simple character.
At that time, Lin Xu spent some time with that mysterious woman and also dealt with many conflicts among the Void People together.
The two got along well, and the mysterious woman even developed a very intimate feeling towards him.
But after Lin Xu unified the Void People, that woman mysteriously disappeared.
Lin Xu knew this woman was incredibly mysterious and must be hiding a big secret. Rather than searching for her, he needed to deal with the matter at hand.
After he integrated the Void People, he discovered that the old nobleman's actions had become strange.
The old nobles began to mobilize various island lords to surround Lin Xu's territory, and also secretly incited the people in an attempt to smear Lin Xu.
Lin Xu realized that he might have touched the interests of the old nobles, and a battle between the two sides was inevitable.
Lin Xu rapidly developed the island, accumulating strength, and the power of his subordinates and himself increased dramatically every day.
Finally, the conflict erupted, and Lin Xu and the old nobleman had a full-blown fight over the issue of dealing with the Void People.
The battle gradually escalated, eventually spreading across the entire island world.
Lin Xu fought his way to the old duke, who looked at him indifferently, appearing completely confident.
At this moment, Lin Xu asked the old duke why he was dealing with the Void People.
The old duke said that the Void People have the bloodline of divine messengers. If one can thoroughly study this lineage, one can become a new divine messenger, obtain the island's top-level authority, and become the number one person below the gods.
Only then will the power of the nobility be permanently secure.
Lin Xu looked at the old duke and burst into laughter.
The old duke frowned and asked Lin Xu what he was laughing about.
Lin Xu mocked the old duke for his narrow-mindedness.
If one can acquire power and authority, how could one be easily satisfied with just a little gain?
The Duke and his noble family had worked hard for generations, only to ultimately desire nothing more than to serve as a messenger of the gods and continue to be servants to others.
If he had the power, he would certainly replace the gods, obtain the highest position, and become the true number one person in the world.
The old duke frowned even more deeply, exclaiming that Lin Xu was a madman with far too much ambition.
This ambition, passed down through generations of nobles, was something they never dared to even dream of.
