The God Virus

Fortunately, being able to reach her in time, Virus grabbed her by the arm, successfully stopping her. "I will not allow you to bring any more harm to Hu Yuexin's body. I promised her she is mine, and what's mine is mine alone, not even you can have it! So stop this nonsense struggle already and follow me!"

As Hu Yuexin was still facing toward the Rift, Virus could not see her expression. However, understanding from her shivering physique and the tone of her voice, it was clear she was burning in utter rage. "I said, do, not, touch, MEEE!"

BOOM!

An invisible force, the same type that had sent Virus flying away the first time he tried to hug her, abruptly hurled Virus away as if a truck had just made a direct impact with his figure.

CRACK! BAM! BOOM!

The force of the impact was so great that Virus' body went through three tree trunks before the power behind it finally depleted away as his body fell on the ground like a puppet with its strings broken!

"Pfft!" Feeling like throwing up, everything within his stomach tried to find its way out of his mouth again. But shockingly, the only thing that came out was blood!

'Ahh, that hurt. She did it again.' Virus pondered in pain, he sensed the internal damage inside his body had gotten much worse as the might behind that invisible force of hers was the strongest so far!

Meanwhile, having finally reached the Rift, Hu Yuexin paused before looking back at Virus' sorry figure one last time.

Although she didn't even open her mouth, one could clearly discern the hatred and loathing she now possessed toward the source of her gaze. Still, with her face extremely pale due to the substantial amount of blood she had lost, Hu Yuexin did not linger around for much before turning away and entering the Rift with the utmost level of determination!

In fact, if not for the existence of Virus, Hu Yuexin had every intention of staying behind and getting stronger in this place which she believed to be a paradise for Cultivation. However, now, with the sudden hostile arrival of Virus, the only fate awaiting her was imprisonment. Furthermore, understanding how terrifying the existence of Virus was to the point of him even being able to spy on her without her knowledge honestly didn't sit well with her. Now, her only goal was to leave this location at once, try to survive wherever she ended up, get stronger, and at last, return to get revenge!

"Remember my vow." These last words of hers reverberated around the area as her figure had already vanished from sight. 

Finally being able to stand up, Virus looked at the Rift. 

"Sigh… I promised I'll be back for you, Hu Yuexin. I told you you are mine no matter the kind of relationship we have. And here I am…" whispering in some despondency, he finished. "But you're no longer here." 

"…" Facing nothing but utter silence after that, Virus felt grieved for some reason.

Subsequently, as he gradually vanished into the distant horizon, merely an echo of his murmur resounded. "Is this… heartache?"

…

After coming back to the atoll with his spaceship, the first act Virus did was to call the CEO ugly.

"Yes, master. I'm all ears." 

"There is this sick kid that has an incurable disease in Shanghai, cure him using the medicine the Island ugly sends you. I've already transmitted his information to you." 

"Yes, sir!"

"Good. Also, take him under your wing and raise him like he is your own son. Nothing less, do you understand?"

"Your wish is my command, sir!"

"Alright, later then." Finished with his orders, Virus hung up the line as his mind jumped back to the memories of the past while he deliberated, 'Hu Yuexin, do not worry about your son, he will see nothing but the best from here onwards.'

…

A few days later, everything Virus had ordered the Island ugly to prepare was ready. So, right now, standing before his master, he was reporting the results. 

"Master, everything's ready now. The Worker Robots transported the C.E.L.L Project, Shape-shifter Technology, the tea, and the Water of Life you requested to your personal spaceship while the Shield device has been carried to the other spaceship."

"Hmm, is that so? Then I guess we're ready to move to the next phase of the plan." Standing up, a grin crept over Virus' lips as he commanded, "Go, call Lil Belle and the Security ugly over, we're leaving soon."

"Yes, master!"

Half an hour later, on the second floor of the underground world beneath the atoll, four people were standing in front of a gigantic Transportation Spaceship which was nearly a thousand times bigger than Virus' private spaceship. They were respectively Virus, the golden beauty, the Island ugly, and the Security ugly that had returned to the island a few days ago responding to Virus' summons.

In the meantime, before them, thousands of Worker Robots were currently busy transporting various unknown materials, parts, and pieces of technology into the monstrous spaceship.

"This spaceship is ten kilometers in all width, length, and height. It is the biggest construct I've built so far! If we bring the 830 meters Burj Khalifa and put it beside this, the Burj would look a small toy compared to it." The Island ugly stated while complimenting the huge spaceship in front of him. It was clear he was extremely proud of this creation of his as it was the fruit of many years of nonstop effort on his part.

Meanwhile, studying the spaceship, a funny thought flashed through Virus' head, 'Should I fly this spaceship over to New York? Everyone will be scared shitless thinking the aliens have invaded.'

'That would be a nice prank to put on youtube.' Even the entire central park was barely one-third of the spaceship, therefore, in case the spaceship was truly steered to hover above the city of New York, merely the shadow it'd cast upon the city would be a sight to witness while watching horror and chaos take over the city.

"Hahaha…" Letting out an amused peal of laughter, Virus put the thought at rest for now and said, "let's go!"

Afterward, Virus, the golden beauty, and the Security ugly entered the huge spaceship before moving to its spacious glass cockpit. Then connecting himself to the spaceship, Virus added a basic Artificial Intelligence to it. From now onwards, the spaceship would be able to follow rudimentary commands and travel by itself anywhere it wanted as long as the destination was clear.

He was just about to initiate the spaceship next when the golden beauty opened her mouth, "Umm, master… I would rather stay here on the atoll and continue my secluded training if that's okay with you."

Listening to her, however, shaking his head, Virus replied, "I would feel ill at ease if I leave you anywhere on this planet, it's just way too dangerous nowadays. But don't worry, I'm not leaving for the Cultivation Earth just yet. And like I said, I have a better location in mind for you to cultivate in peace. Just come with me for now and you'll know it soon enough." 

"Ah, I understand, master."

Right as they were done talking, the huge spaceship began to slowly levitate as it moved toward a certain metal gate that automatically opened up. Beyond the gate, water was occupying every direction since the second floor of the underground world was far beneath the atoll in the middle of the ocean.

Still, stupefyingly, as if the ocean was avoiding it on purpose, not a single drop of ocean water invaded the space inside the underground world.

Reaching the opened gate, the spaceship automatically made itself invisible before diving deep into the water.

In the meantime, looking at the ocean through the glass cockpit, the golden beauty gasped in astonishment, "S-so beautiful!"

"It is indeed." Enjoying the scenery as well, Virus agreed. In his past world of the future, this type of view was nowhere to be found on Earth.

Soon, having received the input for its final destination from Virus, the gigantic Transportation Spaceship left Earth's atmosphere before descending upon the infinite darkness of the starry space.

Right behind it, Virus' private spaceship also followed as they both entered the newly opened crack in the very fabric of the space itself.

When the two spaceships exited the crack, the view that greeted the trio was the image of another planet.

Within the glass cockpit of the gigantic spaceship, the golden beauty uttered a yelp of alarm at the familiar planet before her, "Uh! It's that planet at the very center of the Cigar Galaxy! The planet that's occupied by the Panumans! That Panuman Planet!"

Gazing upon this planet that was mostly covered in oceans of green and forests while the rest was full of red and blue, the golden beauty recalled her past journey to this specific planet where they collected some Water of Life from a certain river which assisted them in creating her real corporeal body.

'Huh? Where are we?' On the other side, the Security felt confused as he looked at the two planets that were stationed in very close proximity to one another. Furthermore, he could see two suns at the far distance shining upon and warming the planetary bodies in the system. 

"Hahaha, that is correct… but don't call it the Panuman Planet anymore." With his eyes squinting slightly, Virus stated.

"What? If I don't call it the Panuman Planet, what should I call it then?" With her eyebrows drawn together, the golden beauty questioned in curiosity.

In response, ambling in front of the two and standing before the exotic planet displaying itself behind the glass, Virus spread both his arms and declared.

"Call it… Virusia!"
