Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

If a Celestial Seat Immortal acted, then aside from Starfield Lords, no one would be a match. Even Lu Yuan could at most resist one. He could not defeat one, much less kill one.

After reaching the Immortal Realm, the differences in strength and every other aspect at every realm became extremely vast. A few methods could not make up for that gap.

Therefore, almost everyone believed that even if Lu Yuan had displayed extremely powerful combat strength and could crush opponents in the same realm, he was still far from being able to match a Celestial Seat Immortal.

So no matter what, the two forces should not have just packed up and go at a time like this. Their departure baffled almost everyone.

Of course, this included Lu Yuan. He could not understand it either.

The two forces had their foundations, and several Celestial Seat Immortals were involved. Yet now, they had chosen to leave, and there had not been any sign beforehand.

If it had been any other time, this would have been almost impossible.

However, the event happened right before them, and they had no choice but to believe it.

Originally, Lu Yuan had chosen to act and forcefully kill those people not only because he wanted to learn information about the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, but also because he wanted to enrage the two forces.

If they could not remain calm, they would naturally make alternative choices. He could then seize those openings to further understand their plan and the matters concerning the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

He might even be able to use this opportunity to find the two Starfield Lords.

But unexpectedly, the Eternal Warship had taken the people of the two forces and disappeared completely.

Now, rumors had already begun to spread that the Ji Clan and the Eternals had witnessed Lu Yuan’s strength and no longer wished to make an enemy of him. They had chosen to retreat because they felt Lu Yuan would sooner or later grow into a supreme overlord of the region.

Under such circumstances, even the two forces could only choose not to oppose him anymore.

Otherwise, there could be no explanation for this sequence of events.

This view gained the agreement of many people. They all felt that Lu Yuan had fully matured. That was why the two forces held fear toward him.

However, Lu Yuan himself dismissed such a thought.

Whether it was the Ji Clan or the Eternals, they had both become existences among the top ten starfields long ago. Their foundations were deep, and the number of experts they possessed was unimaginable.

That was why they could stand in the universe for many years without falling. Their strength was real. They were not something ordinary people could fathom, much less shake.

Otherwise, how could they be called forces of the top ten starfields?

Moreover, there was another point. The Ji Clan’s ancestors had once produced a Human Sovereign Celestial Emperor.

Lu Yuan was indeed completely different from before now.

But so what?

Before such colossal existences, he had merely stirred up a few waves.

Even if they found him difficult to deal with, it was absolutely impossible for the two forces to retreat and leave because of this.

As such, Lu Yuan was certain there was another reason behind their departure.

Jiang Ningxian and the others also came looking for Lu Yuan over this matter. They shared the same thoughts as him. They all felt that something was wrong.

At the very least, the two forces had not chosen to retreat because of the earlier events.

The Jiang Clan naturally understood the two forces very well. Their foundations and strength were real. How could they retreat just because they had suffered a few losses and lost some people?

Back then, the Eternals had been willing to start a war over some divine metals.

The same was true of the Ji Clan.

As descendants of the Human Sovereign Celestial Emperor, retreating without battle was clearly not their style.

”The Eternal Warship was built by the Eternals at enormous cost. Therefore, when they left, we had no way of knowing their destination. We understand even less about what they intend to do,” Jiang Huanyun said.

They naturally had people in space monitoring the two forces. As soon as the two forces moved, news would immediately be sent over.

But this time, they had discovered nothing, so there was some self-reproach in Jiang Huanyun’s words.

”Don’t think too much about it. This happened too suddenly.”

Lu Yuan did not think this was Jiang Huanyun’s fault. Even if they had people watching, those were Celestial Seat Immortals. If they wanted to leave, unless existences of the same level were present, it would be difficult to obtain much valuable information.

Besides, the two forces’ action this time truly had no sign beforehand. It could not be blamed on others.

”They are currently carrying out a plan. Logically speaking, after we disrupted it... They should have been even more enraged, perhaps even choosing to act.

”Their current reaction is too unexpected, unless...” Jiang Ningxian’s words trailed off with a faint tremor as a thought came to mind.

”Unless their plan has already succeeded and can be carried out smoothly. It only needs some preparation, and that will not affect the later steps,” Lu Yuan took over her words and said.

Everyone present froze at those words. Now they understood too.

Just as Lu Yuan had said, if the plan had truly been disrupted, the two forces would definitely have reacted because what the two forces were doing concerned the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and was extremely important.

However, they had shown almost no reaction at all. They had even chosen to leave.

That was absolutely abnormal.

”So what you mean is that the two forces already have ways to allow the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons descend?” Jiang Haokong came back to himself and asked.

”But didn’t you previously estimate that the place where the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons would descend should be the Milky Way Starfield? Then why would they leave?”

He had remembered this point all along. That was why he had led the people of the Celestial Court to seize the various renowned mountains and great rivers. The purpose was to prevent the two forces’ plan from succeeding and stop the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

If that was the case, then the experts of the two forces had no need to leave at all.

”Perhaps there were some problems with my previous guess,” Lu Yuan answered. He could not guarantee that every decision and choice he made was correct.

Just like now, the sudden departure of the two forces had completely disrupted his previous thoughts.

”This is no longer the time to dwell on things so much. We must inform my father of this matter,” Jiang Ningxian said. She knew that if the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons were not descending on Earth, then they could very well descend in any corner of the starry cosmos.

Under such circumstances, they had to inform the others and have the Jiang Clan and everyone else make preparations.

Otherwise, this would become a huge problem.

The key was that the universe was really too vast. Even Starfield Lords could not search every corner.

Even if they knew of the latest updates, they would still be pushed into the passive stance. For this reason, everyone present fell silent and looked toward Lu Yuan.
