Chapter 1864: Chapter 1883: Tell Him to Wash His Neck and Wait for Me!
"This...?"
The Chaotian Sect Master’s expression was hesitant, clearly at a loss on how to handle such an unexpected situation. Being granted the status of one of the Great Sects by the Feather God Dynasty was undeniably a huge honor, yet the thought of a million Primordial Stones weighed heavily on his heart.
"What’s wrong? Do you dare defy the will of our Divine Dynasty?"
Seeing the Chaotian Sect Master delay, the Feiyun God General’s aura turned cold, raising a Divine Spear with a world-shaking killing intent emanating from it.
"Respected envoy, please calm your anger, our sect..."
Before the Chaotian Sect Master could finish, a voice suddenly resonated between Heaven and Earth.
"What if we defy your will?"
Buzz!
A figure quietly emerged in the heavenly vault; who else could it be but Ye Xuan?
"How dare you."
The Feiyun God General’s face was filled with rage, glaring at Ye Xuan, but the next moment his aura staggered, and the words of reprimand he intended to say were swallowed back.
"Heaven-defying Realm?"
Thud—thud—thud!
The Feiyun God General took three steps back, his complexion turning deathly pale, even the Divine Spear in his hand quivering.
Others might not discern Ye Xuan’s cultivation, but being constantly in the Feiyu Divine Dynasty, he was familiar with the aura of the Divine Master of the Heaven-defying Realm. How could he not sense Ye Xuan’s Heaven-defying Realm aura?
"Quite perceptive."
Ye Xuan was slightly surprised, not expecting the other party to recognize his cultivation as being in the Heaven-defying Realm. It seems this Feiyu Divine Dynasty is indeed extraordinary, for even just an envoy has such insight.
"Greetings, senior."
The Feiyun God General was shocked but quickly calmed himself, putting away his arrogant demeanor, bowing to Ye Xuan and lowering his posture.
In the Ancient World, the strong were revered; every Heaven-defying Realm existence was beyond the reach of a mere Divine General like him, even with the backing of the Feiyu Divine Dynasty.
"Go back and tell your Divine Master that the Chaotian Sect will neither pay tribute nor obey the decrees of the Feiyu Divine Dynasty," Ye Xuan said lightly.
"This...?"
Faced with a Heaven-defying Realm presence like Ye Xuan, the Feiyun God General dared not disobey, but leaving so meekly would surely damage the face of the Feiyu Divine Dynasty.
"Senior’s cultivation is unparalleled; naturally, the junior dares not be insolent before you. However, our Divine Master’s dominion spans billions of miles. Merely by your words alone, allowing the Chaotian Sect to withdraw from our Dynasty’s governance seems somewhat unreasonable, doesn’t it?"
The Feiyun God General’s words were wrapped in hidden daggers. While he dared not defy Ye Xuan, he reminded Ye Xuan that, although a Heaven-defying Realm, the Feiyu Divine Dynasty was no pushover. Moreover, their Divine Master was also a Heaven-defying Realm entity; why provoke enmity over a mere Chaotian Sect?
"Hah."
Ye Xuan chuckled, but his laugh was filled with contempt, which made the Feiyun God General’s expression heavy, fully sensing Ye Xuan’s disdain.
"Though my cultivation is not as great as yours, I have come on our Divine Master’s decree. If I return empty-handed, I cannot explain to our Divine Master. If you are willing to befriend our Divine Master, please refrain from meddling in this affair."
With courage, the Feiyun God General spoke, believing Ye Xuan understood his implication, that he was using the Feiyu Divine Master to intimidate Ye Xuan.
"Are you threatening me with your Divine Master?" Ye Xuan’s smile faded, and his gaze grew gradually colder.
"I wouldn’t dare. I just hope you understand that we wish to be your friend, not your enemy. Please, do not make things difficult for me, allowing me to return and speak to our Divine Master," the Feiyun God General forced a smile.
"Alright, I’ll give you an explanation then."
Whoosh!
Ye Xuan flicked his sleeve, a gust of wind whistling forth, and the gold-foiled Dharma Decree in the Feiyun God General’s hand mysteriously vanished, reappearing in Ye Xuan’s hand.
Tear!
Ye Xuan smiled faintly, effortlessly tearing the Dharma Decree to shreds, scattering it into the breeze, turning it into countless drifting fragments.
"How do you like this explanation?" Ye Xuan said casually.
"You...?"
Watching Ye Xuan destroy the Dharma Decree, the Feiyun God General was momentarily angered but quickly composed himself, as showing anger before a Heaven-defying Realm was akin to courting death.
"Go back and tell your Divine Master that I, Ye Xuan, am quite interested in his Feiyu Divine Dynasty. Tell him to prepare himself for me." Ye Xuan smiled.
"Good, good, good!"
The Feiyun God General forced a bitter smile, his face flushed with shame and rage, nearly gritting his teeth as he uttered these words.
"Since you have spoken, I shall deliver the message. Farewell."
Without lingering, the Feiyun God General bowed to Ye Xuan and transformed into an escape light, returning to the Feiyu Divine Dynasty.
"Patriarch, why didn’t you kill him?" The Chaotian Sect Master asked anxiously.
"Between warring states, emissaries are not to be killed. Don’t you understand this principle?"
"Besides, I need him to deliver my challenge to the Divine Master. If I kill him, will you do it for me?" Ye Xuan coldly responded.
"But...but Patriarch, do you really have confidence...?" The Chaotian Sect Master tentatively asked.
"By slaying the Divine Dynasty’s Master, wouldn’t that prove my confidence?"
Ye Xuan smiled coldly, then turned to return to the Qianyang Sect. Next, he needed to raise his essence qi, spirit, and divine to their peak for this was his first battle against a Heaven-defying Realm opponent, and he could not afford any negligence.
...
Feiyu Divine Dynasty!
"Heaven-defying Realm?"
The Feiyu Divine Master frowned, quietly listening to the Feiyun God General’s report. Upon hearing that Ye Xuan had shredded his Dharma Decree and told him to prepare for him, the Feiyu Divine Master’s aura suddenly turned cold.
Nevertheless, the Feiyu Divine Master, being of the Heavenly Defying Second Transformation, had a deeply scheming nature. Although his aura was slightly cold, he exhibited no outward anger.
"Could you tell how many transformations he has reached in the Heaven-defying Realm?"
The Feiyu Divine Master’s eyes were profoundly deep. Upon asking this question, he regretted it slightly, knowing that someone of the Feiyun God General’s cultivation could not discern the number of transformations.
As expected.
The Feiyun God General bitterly smiled and said, "Reporting to the Divine Master, though I discerned his Heaven-defying Realm cultivation, it was due to being by your side for so long. However, I couldn’t determine how many transformations he has achieved."
Pausing slightly, the Feiyun God General hesitated as he continued, "To speak quite disrespectfully, this one’s cultivation appears to rival yours."
Wow!
Once those words fell, it triggered an uproar among the people of the Feiyu Divine Dynasty, many finding it hard to believe what the Feiyun God General claimed.
In this vast dominion, the strongest was recognized as the Feiyu Divine Master, a supreme figure on the verge of entering the Heavenly Defying Third Transformation.
If according to the Feiyun God General, the minimal possibility of the person’s cultivation is the Heavenly Defying Second Transformation, with a potential maximum in the Heavenly Defying Third Transformation?
"Not beneath your Divine Master?"
The Feiyu Divine Master’s gaze turned extraordinarily deep, trusting that the Feiyun God General would not fabricate about such matters, confirming that the other party indeed instilled fear in the Feiyun God General.
