It wasn't just Mr. Gu and Su Ze's other old acquaintances who were shocked to see him—everyone was.
After all, Su Ze's reputation on Blue Star was immense. On Lin Hua Continent, at least, there were very few people who didn't recognize him.
In the years since he had left Blue Star, his legend had spread across the entire planet.
This was especially true after the Nian Race returned in force. As the humans of Blue Star lived under the Nian Race's oppressive rule, they often thought of Su Ze, hoping he would one day return to save them.
After all, it was Su Ze who had dealt with the Nian Race before.
When Su Ze first left, many conspiracy theorists believed the so-called alien invasion was a complete fabrication—a fig leaf for a power struggle, an absurd lie concocted by those in authority.
It was only when they saw the aliens with their own eyes, when they were subjugated and lost their freedom, that they realized just how laughable their theories had been.
