Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Chapter 457. Intimidation, All Bow Their Heads, the Ancient Token’s Ownership

Lu Yuan’s voice rang out with a tone that allowed no doubt. No one dared stop him at all.

As for the Outer Cosmos beings who had previously fought the Celestial Court’s members, they retreated one after another, then restrained their own auras and killing intent.

Existences such as the Celestials, the Nether Bull Clan, the Yin Sparrow Race, and the Three-Headed Ghost Race all wished they could make themselves invisible, because they knew very clearly that their races had grudges with Lu Yuan.

Long ago, they had even joined forces with the intent to take his life.

It could be said that if Lu Yuan held grudges and repaid every slight, he would probably act right now. When that happened, none in those clans would be spared.

Although they could rank among the top hundred clans, so what?

Even the Eternals and the Ji Clan had been killed by Lu Yuan.

How could they even compare against those two clans?

So now, they absolutely could not draw attention to themselves. Otherwise, it was as good as playing with fire. No one would be able to protect them.

However, Lu Yuan did not know what everyone was thinking.

Of course, even if he knew, he would not care at all.

Indeed, the so-called Celestial Race and other existences were indeed retired in his eyes. There was no need to continue attacking. Unless these people chose to make a move first, he would not even spare them another glance.

Lu Yuan had already learned from Jiang Ningxian and the others that the strongest existences of the Top 100 Starfields were basically Creation Immortals. There might even be Celestial Seat Immortals among the top twenty.

In other words, the strongest experts of these clans were basically around the same level as the Ji Clan’s Creation Immortal, and in terms of battle prowess, they were certainly weaker.

After all, the Ji Clan possessed a terrifying foundation. How could ordinary Top 100 Starfields compare?

Under such circumstances, there was no need to regard them as opponents.

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, the Celestial Court members led by Zhu Qingyu immediately nodded.

For them, this campaign was combat experience for them. Although it had not lasted long, the objective had already been achieved.

At the same time, Lu Yuan acted and opened a passage once again. Then, the people of the Jiang Clan and the Celestial Court all walked into it.

At that moment, Mount Emei fell completely silent. Some Immortals could not help looking at one another.

They did not know how to react. They had never imagined that the battle for the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token would end in such a manner.

They had anticipated the possibility of Lu Yuan being the final victor. What they had not anticipated was the process where five Grotto-Heaven Immortals was killed, and a Creation Immortal also seemingly died.

After all, such a high casualty count was not seen even in the greater wars between those great clans in the past.

Especially the Ji Clan.

What kind of existence was it? When had it ever suffered such losses?

”Lu Yuan of the Milky Way Starfield has completely developed.”

”Indeed. Perhaps only a Starfield Lord can act against him now.”

”I suddenly feel that there is nothing inappropriate about this world’s living beings calling him Human Sovereign.”

”The Celestial Court he established has also begun to grow powerful. In less than a hundred years, it will become an extremely terrifying force.”

The experts of the various races spoke amongst themselves.

In the past, they had indeed acknowledged that Lu Yuan was very strong and could be placed alongside some powerful major clans.

Now, however, things were different. Everyone had already acknowledged that he was a true major figure.

In particular, almost everyone present could be considered to have personally witnessed the rise of a powerhouse. After all, they had already begun paying attention to Lu Yuan long ago.

”Let’s go. From now on, we should keep a lower profile as well,” a Grotto-Heaven Immortal spoke. After thinking for a moment, he continued, ”I feel that the protagonist of this Great Age may have already appeared.”

After saying this, he offered no further explanation and chose to leave, paying no more attention to the others.

The people from the other starfields soon followed.

The Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token had an owner now.

Why should they remain here?

Back at Mount Tai, the Celestial Court members emerged from the passage Lu Yuan had opened.

This time, everyone appeared extremely happy.

Not only because they had achieved their goal, but more importantly, because they could sense that the Outer Cosmos beings no longer looked down on the Celestial Court and had finally chosen to take them seriously.

This meant that everything they had done before now had meaning.

Even if some had been injured and some had died during this process, that was normal. It was impossible to guarantee that everyone would survive.

”All right. Go back and digest what you gained today.” Lu Yuan spoke, letting everyone disperse.

Then he looked toward Jiang Ningxian and the other two and said, ”There is something I want to discuss with you.”

”It concerns the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token, doesn’t it?” Jiang Huanyun replied. ”This object is yours. My Jiang Clan has no objections.”

Lu Yuan frowned. ”But the information was provided by the Jiang Clan.”

There were some things he would not monopolize. This was especially so when it concerned the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token.

This object was too important. No one could remain indifferent to it. Lu Yuan did not want the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token to create any estrangement between the two sides.

”It was merely information. That is nothing,” Jiang Huanyun said.

Then he continued, ”If you had not acted today, it remains to be seen who could claim ownership of the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token. It’s not guaranteed that My Jiang Clan could obtain it either.

”Also, you defeated powerful opponents, intimidated everyone, and dominated the scene. You deserve the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token.”

In Jiang Huanyun’s heart, even a Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token was no longer as important as Lu Yuan.

One had to understand that Lu Yuan had killed a Creation Immortal when he was only a Grotto-Heaven Immortal. Regardless what methods he used, the feat was an indication of his strength itself.

Moreover, how long had this person cultivated?

If things progressed as they were, the future would be unimaginable. Jiang Huanyun even felt that he was already seeing the rise of a Starfield Lord.

Everything considered, it was better to hand the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token to Lu Yuan. Although the token was extremely important, it was not something the Jiang Clan absolutely had to possess.

Jiang Clan had not descended just to develop greed over a single object.

”Lu Yuan, since Fifth Ancestor has already said so, just accept it.” Jiang Ningxian added with a smile on her face.

It seemed like they had already reached an agreement. Even Jiang Haokong beside her nodded repeatedly.

Cooperating with the Jiang Clan had indeed been the correct choice back then. If it had been any other clan, they would not have been so generous.

”Then I will respectfully obey.” Lu Yuan was not a pretentious person either. Since things had already been said, there was no need to say more.

Afterward, he exchanged a few more words with them before leaving.

He had an even more important matter awaiting him.

That was to fuse with the fifth Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token.
