Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

”I just received news. The Eternals and the Ji Clan have joined forces. Not only that, they are also making moves on every side. It is very possible they intend to gather a large group of people.”

Jiang Ningxian did not hesitate and spoke directly. ”And their target is very likely us.”

She knew that if they were only dealing with Lu Yuan, there would be no need for the two great forces to go to such lengths. They were confident that with the strength in their hands, they could deal with the Celestial Court.

The reason they were doing this was to deal with the Jiang Clan as well. After all, the Jiang Clan was an existence on the same level. The more allies they gathered, the stronger the power in their hands, allowing them to handle matters with greater ease. They were treating both the Celestial Court and the Jiang Clan as opponents to be dealt with together.

”It seems our alliance is still somewhat useful. It actually forced those two great forces to seek allies.”

After hearing this, Lu Yuan was not nervous. Rather, a smile instead appeared on his face. Why had the two great forces acted this way? Was it not precisely because they felt they did not have absolute confidence?

He might have been worried before, but things were different now. Not only had he just refined the final two cauldrons, more importantly, he had the Jiang Clan as an ally, and the current Celestial Court was no longer something others could manipulate at will.

At this thought, Lu Yuan continued, ”And the reason the various races have begun reducing their battles is likely because they have received related news. They want to see exactly what those two great forces intend to do, and whether they can gain some benefit from it.”

Hearing this, Zhu Qingyu nodded. ”That is our judgment as well. Then what should we do next? Should we quietly observe the situation and refrain from acting, then wait until they move before doing anything?”

This was how the Celestial Court had always acted. After all, their strength was still insufficient. If they acted rashly, they could easily fall into crisis, which would do more harm than good.

However, Lu Yuan shook his head. ”No. This time, we will take the initiative.”

Whether it was the people under him or those sent by the Jiang Clan, the two sides combined had already reached a very powerful level. There was no need to continue keeping a low profile. Otherwise, people would keep looking down on them.

Perhaps even now, those Outer Cosmos beings feared only Lu Yuan himself. They did not know the true strength of the Celestial Court, and that could not continue. What Lu Yuan wanted was for the Celestial Court to seize this opportunity to make its name.

It just so happened that most of the Outer Cosmos beings who should descend had already descended. This was an excellent opportunity, one that absolutely could not be missed.

At this thought, Lu Yuan looked toward Zhu Qingyu and said, ”Go and see who is currently probing toward the five supercities. Once you find them, do not hesitate. Act directly and kill them.

”If there are forces like the Celestial Race or the Yin Sparrow Race among them, forces that have had grudges with us before, then begin the slaughter.”

That was right. Since they dared disregard the rules he had set down before, they had to pay the price. And this time, he would not negotiate with them. He would act directly.

”This...”

Beside him, Ice Fairy and the others looked at one another. It was not that they had never acted before, but now, without issuing any prior warning, they were to begin a massacre. This was indeed somewhat shocking and completely unlike the Celestial Court’s previous style.

”Do not worry. If there is something the Celestial Court cannot resolve, my Jiang Clan will lend assistance.”

At this moment, Jiang Ningxian also suddenly spoke, and her expression grew solemn as well. ”All along, my Jiang Clan has treated others kindly and never done much. Perhaps precisely because of this, many people from the major clans have forgotten exactly how my Jiang Clan had come to be part of the top ten clans.”

Her voice carried a trace of coldness, as though there was no room for sentiment at all.

It was no wonder. Those major Outer Cosmos clans clearly knew there was cooperation between the Celestial Court and the Jiang Clan. Yet in the end, they still chose to act. Why? Because the Jiang Clan of the past generally would not take action. If something could be resolved with words, they would resolve it with words.

Jiang Ningxian could see that this time, if they did not begin a slaughter, it would not be enough.

”Alright. We understand what to do.”

Zhu Qingyu nodded. Those present were all outstanding figures of the younger generation. How could they not understand the significance of acting this time?

It was to display their strength before the various races. And in the future, because of this, the name of the Celestial Court would spread throughout the starry cosmos.

At once, everyone said nothing more and went directly to carry out the order. Very soon, only two people remained.

Seeing everyone leave, Jiang Ningxian asked, ”After completely refining the Nine Tripod Cauldrons, did you feel anything special?”

She naturally understood the matter of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons better than anyone. Since he had just emerged from seclusion, she asked about it.

”Within them exists a powerful Providence. It is extremely terrifying. If this Providence can be used well, it can accomplish many things.”

Lu Yuan did not conceal anything and spoke directly. Of course, this was only about the Nine Tripod Cauldrons. He mentioned nothing about other matters, such as the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token.

”The Nine Tripod Cauldrons suppress the Providence of the human race, not merely of this world, but of the entire universe. Yu the Great succeeded the Five Emperors. He was also an extraordinary hero blessed by the heavens.” Jiang Ningxian nodded.

How important were the Nine Tripod Cauldrons? Never mind the two of them; even ordinary people knew. There were simply too many legends concerning them.

Unfortunately, although the Jiang Clan possessed two of them, they had no method to use them. Giving them to Lu Yuan was in the hope that he could bring out the profundities within. Clearly, this choice had been correct.

At this thought, Jiang Ningxian drew a slight breath, then looked at Lu Yuan and said again, ”In the Dragon Penitentiary, you were invaded by the black blood of that Extracosmic Heavenly Demon. Later, I searched through the ancient records of my clan and discovered that such black blood is extremely troublesome. Touching it brings great disaster. You...”

This matter had been on her mind ever since then. It was not because she was guarding against anything, but because she was worried about Lu Yuan. Powerful methods generally left aftereffects, and in her heart, she was afraid this might pose some threat to him.

However, Lu Yuan did not immediately speak after hearing her words. If he wanted to explain the matter, he could only bring up the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token.

This matter was of great importance. It was not about whether he trusted her; he could completely trust Jiang Ningxian. The Jiang Clan behind her was another matter. No matter what, being cautious was always correct.

So in the end, Lu Yuan looked at her and slowly said, ”To resolve the black blood, I indeed used a certain method. But it involves many things, and I cannot explain it to you directly. But I can guarantee that one day, you will know.”

Since he was unwilling to deceive her, but also unwilling to reveal everything, he could only answer in such a manner.

After Jiang Ningxian heard his words, she had no intention of continuing to ask. Everyone had their own secrets. How could everything possibly be spoken aloud? She understood this very well.
