Cosmic Professional Gladiator Novel - Chapter 664

664 Passing of Old Friends (1)
Li Miaomiao walked into the study with a tray of fruit and found her husband, Xu Jingming, lost in thought in front of a blank projection screen.

“Miaomiao,” he said, turning to her.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, concerned.

“Grandpa and our parents are in their 2,900s,” Xu Jingming said. “Most of them don’t have much time left.”

“What do you plan to do?” she asked.

Other than Mr. Xu, who was quite talented on the evolutionary path and had reached Lv. 8 with the help of the Evolutionary Guide, the other elders were ordinary cosmic lifeforms.

“Extend their lifespans, of course,” he replied. “It’s my duty to do so.”

But Li Miaomiao was worried. “The free service to extend life by becoming an Origin lifeform is only offered to great scholars with a Lv. 100 educational level or those with special reasons…”

Xu Jingming said, “There’s still some quota left.”

“Cosmic legends are qualified to apply! Great scholars who have contributed enough are also qualified,” Xu Jingming said.

“Using external forces to become an Origin lifeform requires 100 million credits to be deducted for the first nominee. The second requires 200 million credits, the third is 500 million credits, followed by 1 billion, 2 billion, 5 billion, 10 billion, 20 billion…”

Li Miaomiao’s expression changed at the cost. “That much credit? 100 million credits can buy ten Milky Ways! How much did you accumulate before you became a cosmic legend?”

Ordinary cosmic legends rarely nominated their families.

“I’ve thought about it. Grandpa, our parents, you, our daughter, and the two kids,” Xu Jingming said. “This is my temporary list.”

“Aren’t the nominations very precious?” Li Miaomiao asked. “Won’t it be too much? In fact, I think living for thousands or tens of thousands of years is already a lot. There’s no need to force it.”

“I’m not forcing it.” Xu Jingming smiled and said, “Since I can do it, why shouldn’t I? Family is the most important thing to me.”

Li Miaomiao nodded.

“And with the Evolutionary Guide, many of you are Lv. 8 and far from the end of your lifespans,” Xu Jingming continued. “Only Grandpa, my mother, and your parents require the help of external forces. That’s a total of four people.”

Li Miaomiao nodded. “Four people will require 1.8 billion credits. The fifth nominee will skyrocket the cost even further.”
…

The couple confirmed it, and they acted fast, keeping their plans a secret.

The couple personally invited the four elders, sending them to the Cosmic Human Alliance headquarters for a transformation into Origin lifeforms.

“What’s going on?”

Grandpa Xu, Li Chen’an, his wife, and Mrs. Xu woke up to find their bodies had changed beyond recognition.

“What happened to us?” Li Chen’an and his wife were stunned when they noticed their once white hair had turned black, restoring them to their youthful appearance.

“Jingming applied for you to become Origin lifeforms with the help of external forces,” Li Miaomiao explained.

“Origin lifeforms?” Li Chen’an and his wife couldn’t believe what they were hearing.

“Our bodies?” Grandpa Xu was in shock as he saw his body turn into smoke and then solidify again. “This is Cosmic Force? I can actually become an Origin lifeform. Grandson, it’s not easy to get a spot, right?”

Mrs. Xu was equally amazed. “I heard that even the emperors of the three royal families aren’t qualified to nominate anyone.”

As Xu Jingming’s mother, Mrs. Xu had led a carefree life for many years and was well-informed about the inner workings of the cosmic human race.

“Mom,” Li Miaomiao said, “your son is much better than them.”

“Let’s go back.” Xu Jingming led his family back to Earth.

Whoosh!

He instantly returned to Earth from the distant Cosmic Human Alliance headquarters.

“We crossed multiple cosmic sectors and traveled more than ten billion light-years in an instant.” Grandpa Xu looked at Xu Jingming. “This eldest grandson of mine is getting more and more impressive.”

From being a professional eSports player and a gaming streamer in his youth, to now becoming an Origin lifeform with a lifespan of 30,000 years, he was soaring to new heights thanks to his grandson.

…

Li Chen’an and his wife lived on a private planet.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Five spaceships arrived at the private planet together.

“Dad, Mom.”

“Dad, Mom.”

Three men and two women visited Li Chen’an and his wife.

Ever since Li Chen’an and his wife became cosmic lifeforms, they had five more children in their long lifespan, giving Li Miaomiao some younger siblings. After so many years of development, the Li family was considered a rather famous family among cosmic humans.

“Dad, Mom, we don’t have many years left to live.”

“Please beg Sister to help us.”

“Dad, Mom, we want to live on.”

The three men and two women rushed over together to seek Li Chen’an and his wife’s help.

“Jingming and Miaomiao didn’t have it easy to help us become Origin lifeforms.” Li Chen’an looked at his children. “Their own child, Xu Lixing, is only a cosmic lifeform. How can they help you?”

“Xu Lixing is a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform. She’s not in a hurry,” a son said, “but we are. I’m already in my 2,600s this year.”

“Your sister has done so much for the family,” Li Chen’an said. “She even got an Evolutionary Guide for you, but you couldn’t become cosmic lifeforms on your own. Look at the Xu family—their juniors cultivate much harder than you.”
