Shoo!
After Ye Xuan discovered that Yun Tiesheng and Yun Mao were heading for the Yanshen Sect, he moved swiftly towards them on his Tree of World.
In a split second, the World of Tree traversed over 50,000,000 km.
That distance might sound like a lot, but it was really insignificant compared to the Tidal Treasure Snail’s detection radius.
Once the Tidal Treasure Snail evolved to immortal-level, its detection radius could no longer be measured in kilometers. Light years would be a more appropriate metric of measurement.
Ye Xuan speculated that the Tidal Treasure Snail would be able to detect everything within a radius of 650 light years.
”It probably wouldn’t take long before you guys catch up.” Ye Xuan gazed down at the Tree of World.
.
Both the Tree of World and Lil Wan’s cultivation were stuck at peak starlight-level.
They still had ways to go before they could reach immortal-level, where Ye Xuan was currently at.
However, it should not be long before the two of them evolve base on the incredible amount of luck points Ye Xuan amassed for them.
It was almost enough points to redeem the evolutionary resources for Lil Wan and the Tree of World to evolve.
”800,000,000 luck points,” Ye Xuan browsed through the evolutionary resources necessary for the two to rise in stars and murmured to himself.
There were two ways for them to rise in stars.
One way would rise them to starlight-level five stars, the other way starlight-level four stars.
Unfortunately, the starlight-level five stars path requires Ye Xuan to use eternal-level evolutionary resources.
Evolutionary resources of that caliber were not something he could get his hands on just yet.
Therefore, he could only choose to have Lil Wan and the Tree of World take their starlight-level four stars evolution and think of other ways for them to rise in stars later.
The evolutionary resources required for Lil Wan and the Tree of World’s starlight-level four stars evolution cost 800,000,000 luck points.
”It shouldn’t belong,” Ye Xuan murmured to himself.
Ye Xuan’s luck points increased rapidly with each passing second. They were constantly increasing over the course of his journey from the Tianyuan Star Zone to the Yanshen Sect in the Canglan Starzone.
All the emperors that had offered their subservience to him in the Tianyuan Star Zone each returned to their perspective empires and spread the news that the thirteen empires of the Tianyuan Star Zone had all joined forces with the Great Xia Alliance.
As a result of that notoriety, Ye Xuan’s Golden Dragon of Luck stored more and more luck points in its Sea of Luck Clouds.
Ye Xuan currently sat on 600,000,000 luck points, a huge increase from the 300,000,000 he had a little while ago.
At the rate he was gaining, it would not be long before he reaches 800,000,000 luck points.
Ye Xuan decided to use up the luck points to help Lil Wan and the Tree of World to rise in stars once he hits that mark.
Afterwards, he would use the Golden Dragon of Luck’s huge reservoir of luck energy stored in the Sea of Luck Clouds to help the two evolve.
He needed their cultivation to reach immortal-level as soon as possible.
”The Great Xia Alliance?”
”I heard that our Empire of the Rising Sun joined the Great Xia Alliance. Where did this Great Xia Alliance come from?”
”Our Empire of the Rising Sun isn’t the only one joining the Great Xia Alliance. Throughout the entire Tianyuan Star Zone, the thirteen emperors from their thirteen empires all announced at the same time that all factions within the Tian Yuan Star Zone will be joining the Great Xia Alliance. They are drafting the necessary legislatures to make it official.”
”Apparently anyone that does not comply with those terms will be listed as an outlaw organization and an enemy of the state. They would suffer the wrath of all thirteen empires!”
”I also heard that the Great Xia Alliance leader’s name is Ye Xuan. Very little is known about him, where he came from and what he did. Whoever he is, he must be an incredible person to bend the leaders of the thirteen empires to their knees!”
After the Emperor of the Rising Sun, the Monarch of Wind and Cloud, the Emperor of Taien, the Divine Feather Emperor and the others made the announcement, the entire Tianyuan Star Zone was in utter shock.
Never before had they bared witness to an event of this magnitude.
The Tianyuan Star Zone was an insignificant speck in the Heavenly Universe.
The only thing remotely relevant about it was that it was located at the center of the Heavenly Universe and that the Divine Sovereign Starbright led a reclusive life in the region.
Even so, the Tianyuan Star Zone under the protection of thirteen emperor-level beast tamers and their perspective empires made it a tough foe for anyone to take on.
No inhabitants of the Tianyuan Star Zone would have thought that some Great Xia Alliance appearing out of nowhere could manage to take control of all thirteen empires of the Tianyuan Starzone just like that.
Joining the Great Xia Alliance was really just a nice way to put it. In reality, one might as well say that the Tianyuan Starzone is now under the complete jurisdiction of the Great Xia Alliance.
”What the?”
Yun Tiesheng, the head of Canglan Star Zone’s Yun Clan, appeared out of a transmission formation alongside Yun Mao and hurried towards the Yanshen Sect.
They wanted to convince the Yanshen Sect to join forces with the Yun Clan and take over the entire Canglan Star Zone.
Afterwards, they would offer the Canglan Star Zone to Elder Cui, one of the leaders of the Ten Great Clans from the Imperial World.
As they were traveling, one of the seals Yun Tiesheng carried with him suddenly caught fire. A moment later, a piece of information was relayed to him.
”How is this possible?” After reading the message, Yun Tiesheng was in a state of shock.
”Father, what happened?” seeing Yun Tiesheng’s expression, Yun Mao asked carefully. “Did something happen in the Yanshen Sect?”
”It’s not the Yanshen Sect,” Yun Tiesheng answered gravely, “it’s the entire Tianyuan Star Zone. I just received news that all thirteen empires of the Tianyuan Star Zone announced that they were joining a faction called the Great Xia Alliance!”
”What? They all announced at the same time that they were joining this Great Xia Alliance?” It was now Yun Mao’s turn to be shocked.
After a brief moment of silence, Yun Mao thought of something and said to Yun Tiesheng, “I have never heard of this Great Xia Alliance. However, I am certain that this has to do with Yan Yue and the one reincarnated at the Imperial World. He holds the Golden Dragon of Luck.”
”If that is the case, then we really have to hurry up and convince Yan Yue. If that Great Xia Alliance leader is as strong as they rumored, it wouldn’t be long before he turns his sight towards the Canglan Star Zone. We are on the clock!”
But what about this Golden Dragon of Luck? Yun Tiesheng thought to himself. What type of beast was it? What abilities did it possess?
According to the original plan he drafted with Yun Mao, the main objective of their trip to the Yanshen Sect was to convince Yan Yue to collaborate with their Yun Clan to take over the entire Canglan Star Zone.
After they take control of the Canglan Star Zone, they would turn their swords against the weaker Tianyuan Star Zone.
Yun Tiesheng never would have thought that the Tianyuan Star Zone already fell into someone else’s pocket before he could even execute the first part of his plan.
”Hurry! We must go faster!” Yun Tiesheng said to Yun Mao urgently.
The two blazed towards the direction of the Yunsheng Sect.
Shoo! Suddenly, after the two had traveled several hundred light years, a figure appeared standing on the branch of a towering tree. He blocked their path.
”I am Yun Tiesheng, head of the Yun Clan from the Canglan Star Zone. Stranger, who are you? And why do you block our path?”
Seeing Ye Xuan, Yun Tiesheng’s expression turned serious.
Even though the Starlight-level Tree of World Ye Xuan stood on was only average in his eyes, Ye Xuan’s immortal-level cultivation was not something he could take on lightly.
Ye Xuan’s cultivation level greatly surprised him.
As one of the heads of the five largest factions in Canglan Star Zone, he did not know the existence of any other immortal-level beast tamers outside of them.
”I am Ye Xuan of the Great Xia Alliance,” Ye Xuan answered calmly.
The Great Xia Alliance?!
Yun Tiesheng’s eyes grew wide at Ye Xuan’s words.
Just a moment ago, he was discussing the Great Xia Alliance with Yun Mao.
They had no clue where this Great Xia Alliance, along with their leader Ye Xuan appeared from.
Never in their wildest dreams could they have expected that Ye Xuan would appear before them just moments later.
”Shoo!” While Yun Tiesheng was in a state of shock, Ye Xuan swung his arm and summoned all of his immortal-level beasts.
He used the Double Beast Clone technique to make two extra copies of the Tidal Treasure Snail.
The three Tidal Treasure Snails then used their Treasure Snail Image ability and made three more copies of themselves.
In a matter of seconds, six immortal-level Tidal Treasure Snails appeared around Yun Mao and Yun Tiesheng.
At the same time, the Seal Beast jumped out of its beast lair and landed in Ye Xuan’s arms.
The Golden Dragon of Luck swung its tail in its beast lair and merged into Ye Xuan’s body.
Rumble!
The six Tidal Treasure Snails created a gigantic Tidal Vortex by manipulating the space energy around them.
The gravity unleashed from the Tidal Vortex rivaled that of a terrifying black hole and immediately pulled in Yun Tiesheng and Yun Mao.
Caught completely off guard, the next thing the two knew was that they were completely isolated from the outside world.
From their angle, all they could see was Ye Xuan towering over them from the top of the Tidal Vortex. The six treasure snails spun around him like bright stars orbiting around the sun.
Within the vortex, sharp strands of tidal currents swirled around like whirling razors.
These currents were intentionally created by the Tidal Treasure and imbued with space energy.
At any moment’s notice, they could erupt to cut Yun Tiesheng and Yun Mao to a million pieces.
Before Ye Xuan launched this attack, he used his God’s Aid ability.
Even without the Aiding Seed, God’s Aid itself was enough to increase all beast’s combat power by 50%. This was a huge improvement after the ability evolved.
Under these circumstances, even if Ye Xuan’s beasts’ levels were lower level and beast grade than those of Yun Tiesheng’s, they would be able to hold their own against them. However, Ye Xuan’s beasts were actually higher level than Yun Tiesheng’s beasts.
”Ye Xuan, you have no grudge against the Yun Clan. Why do you attack us?” At the center of the Tidal Vortex, Yun Tiesheng summoned his Five-colored Rainbow Dragon under tremendous pressure.
The ginormous Five-colored Rainbow Dragon was a beast of great renown. Everyone in the Canglan Star Zone regarded it as their totem. It was one of the Yun Clan’s strongest beasts.
In this particular moment, however, Yun Tiesheng did not feel assured by the presence of the Five-colored Rainbow Dragon.
The aura Ye Xuan unleashed, along with all of the beasts he summoned, made Yun Tiesheng feel that he was outmatched.
No matter how hard he thought, Yun Tiesheng could not comprehend how Ye Xuan appeared here before them.
”You are right. There is no grudge between the two of us. However, I have laid my eyes on the Canglan Star Zone,” Ye Xuan replied calmly as if the whole matter was not insignificant to him. “Even if you did not plan on going to the Yanshen Sect today, I will eventually pay you a visit. Our meeting here is not by chance.”
He laid his eyes on the Canglan Star Zone? Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Yun Tiesheng was thunderstruck. He finally understood why Ye Xuan was attacking them.
However, he still had other questions. “How did you find out we were heading towards the Yanshen Sect and set up an ambush here? Are they your allies now?”
”Allies?” Ye Xuan chuckled, “I wouldn’t call them allies. Yanshen Sect’s Gu Jue and Yan Yue are my subordinates now.”
”Your subordinates?” The shock on Yun Tiesheng’s face was immeasurable now.
It was only a short while ago that he found out Ye Xuan had taken over the entire Tianyuan Star Zone under the banner of the Great Xia Alliance.
Now Ye Xuan claimed that the Yanshen Sect, the second strongest faction of the five in the Canglan Star Zone, had also joined the Great Xia Alliance.”
”Sire, I was an auxiliary branch member of the Imperial World’s Cui Clan in my past life. If I may ask, what is your identity?” Yun Mao asked Ye Xuan carefully.
”An auxiliary branch member of the Cui Clan eh?” Ye Xuan reexamined Yun Mao. This was the first time he paid him any attention.
He did not think that he would meet another person like Yan Yue. They were both from the Imperial world.
However, after a thorough examination, Ye Xuan did not pick up any trace of the Golden Dragon of Luck’s aura from Yun Mao.
Ye Xuan had heard some things about the Cui Clan from Yan Yue.
He knew that the Cui Clan was a faction in the Imperial World that was only slightly weaker than the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
Suddenly, Ye Xuan had an idea. “I’m from the Palace of the Ocean Dragons. I am one of their true transmission disciples. Are you trying to intimidate me with the Cui Clan’s title?”
The Palace of the Ocean Dragon’s true transmission disciple? Yun Mao shuddered at that thought.
In terms of ranking, the true transmission disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragon was even above that of the kinsman disciples in the Cui Clan.
Obviously, the true transmission disciple was still lower than the grand elder of the Cui Clan.
However, Yun Mao wasn’t the grand elder. He wasn’t even an elder. He was only an auxiliary branch disciple that did not even reach legendary-level yet.
His title was a speck of dust compared to the title Ye Xuan claimed to be.
Titles aside, Ye Xuan was much stronger than him. If he wished to kill him, he would.
”No, no… I wouldn’t dare to do that.”
Cold beads of sweat were rolling down Yun Mao’s back. His voice shook as he answered Ye Xuan. “Since it is the true transmission disciple of the Palace of the Ocean Dragon, then the Yun Clan would offer our allegiance without question.”
He did not dare to challenge Ye Xuan’s authority.
If his father was stronger than Ye Xuan, then it would have been a whole different matter.
However, he could clearly see that his father was no match for Ye Xuan.
Given their circumstances, the best option for them was to offer their subservience.
At his side, Yun Tiesheng’s gaze darkened after hearing his son’s words.
After a brief internal struggle, he sighed.
If he dared to oppose Ye Xuan, the outcome would be certain death.
Furthermore, if the Yanshen Sect had truly submitted to Ye Xuan as he said, it would be pointless even if he managed to escape here alive.
After weighing the little options he had, Yun Tiesheng withdrew his Five-colored Rainbow Dragon and bowed down his head to Ye Xuan alongside Yun Mao.
”A wise decision.” Ye Xuan smiled.
The Seal Beast in his arms immediately jumped above the two bowed down men and cast two slave seals into their spirit ocean.
”Lord, I just received a message from Yun Tiesheng. He said he is almost here.” Shortly after Ye Xuan captured Yun Tiesheng and Yun Mao, a message from Yan Gujue arrived.
”Isn’t Yun Tiesheng here?” Ye Xuan was puzzled for a second.
He then immediately understood that Yun Tiesheng had sent that message when he first arrived outside the transmission formation.
That was a while ago.
”You two will return to the Yun Clan immediately and make an announcement that the Yun Clan will join the Great Xia Alliance.” Ye Xuan instructed Yun Tiesheng.
”Yes, lord! Right away!” Yun Tiesheng answered. He immediately turned back with Yun Mao and headed towards the direction of the Yun Clan.
It had not even occurred to them that they originally planned on going to the Yanshen Sect. It was as if the whole purpose of their trip was to offer their subservience to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan watched the two men leave and composed a message for Yan Gujue. “I have instructed Yun Tiesheng to return to the Yun Clan. All we have to do now is to wait for the Lord of Canglan and his entourage to arrive.”
