From the Metropolis to the Strongest in the Cosmos

The Werewolf Race assassin saw the movement up ahead, and his expression changed.

He was very confident in his stealth abilities. He was an expert at hiding; it was nearly impossible for anyone in the Divine Realm to discover his tracks.

Watching Li Yang fly out, the Werewolf Race assassin readied himself, gathering his power for an instantaneous strike.

But under his watchful gaze, Li Yang, who had just emerged from the entrance to the Star Moon Race’s territory, said something and then unexpectedly returned.

’What’s going on?’ Seeing this, the Werewolf Race assassin frowned.

’Why did Li Yang go back again?’

He had been waiting all this time. Li Yang hadn’t left after receiving his inheritance, and now that he had finally come out, he had gone back in for some reason?

’Don’t tell me Li Yang plans to stay with the Star Moon Race forever?’

The Werewolf Race assassin’s heart sank.

’Why is he so much trouble?’

It was like this when his inheritance ended a year ago, and it’s the same now that his secluded cultivation is over?

He planned to assassinate Li Yang here because the Star Moon Race didn’t care about what happened outside their world, nor would they bother investigating.

Sometimes, when a large group of people was waiting outside to enter their territory, the Star Moon Race experts would come out at fixed times to check. If they had a significant background, they would be led inside.

Normally, they wouldn’t check on the situation outside their territory at all.

That was why this Werewolf Race assassin could remain hidden here indefinitely.

But inside the Star Moon Race’s territory, with that powerful sovereign present, a single thought could encompass their entire world.

If Li Yang was in the Star Moon Race’s world, he... would have absolutely no chance to kill him.

’I’ll just have to keep waiting!’

Although the Werewolf Race assassin was furious, his patience was more than sufficient. He continued to lie in wait, hoping for Li Yang to emerge again.

「...」

This was an incomparably majestic and enormous divine hall. It stood directly in the void, and its size surpassed that of an entire planet.

This was a super-faction established by the Human Race near the territories of the Star Moon Race and others. It was jointly governed by the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall and the Hunyuan Martial Dao Saint Realm!

The Hunyuan Martial Dao Saint Realm was another super-faction of the Human Race, one not the least bit inferior to the Eternal Saint Hall.

Over ninety-nine percent of all experts in the entire Human Race were concentrated within these two super-factions.

At this moment, inside a palace within the massive divine hall, several experts of the Human Race were chatting casually. If one were to carefully sense their auras, it was clear they were all powerful Deities.

As they were talking, a middle-aged man in purple armor stood up.

”What is it, Li Luo?” Seeing the purple-armored man’s action, the others asked in confusion.

The purple-armored man, Li Luo, looked at the others and said, ”Hei Xu just sent me a message. An expert from the Alien Race is preparing to kill Li Yang. They are a Tri-System Deity. I’m preparing to make a trip to the Star Moon Race’s territory. Who wants to come with me?”

”Hei Xu? Li Yang? Oh, that monstrous genius from the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall. Isn’t Hei Xu Li Yang’s protector during his time in the Star Lord Realm?”

”How is Li Yang now?”

Hearing the purple-armored man’s words, the others immediately spoke up.

Although the genius Li Yang was famous, many experts only knew of him. This was especially true for the Hunyuan Martial Dao Saint Realm, whose members paid far less attention to him.

No matter how great his Talent, he was still just a genius. In front of a powerful Deity, he was no different from an ant. Therefore, many experts didn’t pay him any mind.

’Experts are all proud. If you want me to pay special attention to you, then you’d better grow strong enough first.’

”That Tri-System Deity hasn’t made a move yet; they’re just in hiding,” the purple-armored man, Li Luo, said.

At this point, a young man with a single vertical eye and cyan mystic patterns on his face asked doubtfully, ”Li Luo, if they haven’t made a move, how did Li Yang discover that hidden Alien Race expert? These hidden aliens are very cunning. We’ve investigated for so long and still find it hard to track them. Was it Hei Xu who found them?”

They were members of this sovereign divine hall, and investigating the Alien Race was one of their duties. However, the experts dispatched by the Alien Race were all skilled at concealment and very difficult to find.

They knew just how difficult it was.

Li Luo explained, ”Li Yang has a treasure that allowed him to discover the hidden Tri-System Deity.”

”Li Yang discovered him? Not Hei Xu?”

Hearing this, the young man with the vertical eye smiled and said, ”Li Yang, a mere Star Lord Realm cultivator, managed to discover a hidden Tri-System Deity with some treasure? I’m rather curious what kind of treasure that could be.”

”Ci Huan, what are you implying?” Hearing the vertical-eyed youth’s words, Li Luo asked with a slight frown.

’Does this vertical-eyed youth have a problem with Li Yang?’

The vertical-eyed youth, Ci Huan, said coolly, ”Li Luo, don’t you think Li Yang might be tricking you into protecting him? He’s not even sure if there’s an alien there.”

He thought for a moment and added, ”Then again, it makes sense. Li Yang has been with the Star Moon Race for several years, so the Alien Race would definitely know. It’s possible they’d send an expert to assassinate him, and the area outside the Star Moon Race’s entrance is the best place for it. It’s perfectly normal for Li Yang to be worried about the danger and invent an alien assassin.”

He stated calmly, ”A Star Lord Realm finding a specially hidden Tri-System Deity? I, for one, have never seen a treasure capable of that.”

How powerful is a Deity? Especially one who has mastered three sets of laws!

Forget the Star Lord Realm; even if Li Yang were at the Peak of World Realm, he would still be an ant before such an expert!

A powerful Tri-System Deity goes into hiding, and he’s discovered by an ant like Li Yang? Is that even possible?

In truth, his suspicion was well-founded.

The key was that Li Yang couldn’t explain how he had discovered the Werewolf Race assassin. He couldn’t very well say, ’I have the fragmented soul of a super-expert inside me,’ could he? So, Li Yang had fabricated the story about a treasure, claiming it was the treasure that made the discovery.

Glancing at the vertical-eyed youth, Li Luo smiled and said, ”It’s just a precaution. Besides, there are countless treasures out there. There are plenty we’ve never seen.”

”Then you guys go. I’m not going,” the vertical-eyed youth, Ci Huan, said indifferently.

Hearing his words, Li Luo didn’t try to force him.

They were all powerful Deities. Li Yang was just a genius at the Star Lord Realm; compared to them, he was clearly far inferior.

Just because of a single sentence from Li Yang, they were expected to go protect him. It was natural that some would be unwilling.

Li Yang was a monstrous genius of the Human Race, but that was all. His status was not yet that high.

”Li Luo, I’ll go with you to take a look,” another man, who had a pair of wings, said directly.

There were four people in the palace in total. Now, the last one, a man with two horns and black mystic patterns on his face, chuckled and said, ”Ci Huan isn’t going, so I won’t go either. Li Luo, Mu Xuan, Li Yang is a member of your Saint Hall. You two can go.”

The vertical-eyed youth and this man with black mystic patterns were clearly from the Human Race’s other super-faction—the Hunyuan Martial Dao Saint Realm.

The two super-factions of the Human Race were naturally in competition with each other. It was perfectly normal that they wouldn’t help Li Yang based on his word alone.

”Alright then, we’re off.” Li Luo didn’t waste any more words. He and the other expert, Mu Xuan, flickered and vanished without a trace.
