Qin Tian returned to Nanchong but didn’t stay. Instead, he immediately had a Supreme take him to the United States.
He wanted to personally pass on the matter of the Stele of King Cheng to Qin Hai.
More importantly, he needed his younger brother to step in.
He must kill Lu Yu at all costs to relieve his burning hatred!
Qin Hai sent people to Fanggang, but not for war.
His mission was to make a deal and bring the Tablet of the King back from Lu Yu.
A demon appeared in Fanggang, and everyone in the city saw it.
They saw the demon fall toward the center of Fanggang and knew that something was about to happen.
The demon saw Yang Qian in front of the villa, which had just been built halfway. He politely bowed to Yang Qian and said, “Madam, my name is Storm. May I ask if Mr. Lu is at home?”
“He’s not here.” Yang Qian, knowing that Lu Yu had killed a similar demon a few days ago, answered cautiously.
Bao Feng laughed and said, “Dear madam, rest assured, I’m not here to cause any trouble. It’s just that Mr. Lu possesses an item which our king greatly needs. As long as Mr. Lu is willing to sell, we can accept any price!”
Speaking, Bao Feng took out a letter from his bosom with both hands and handed it to Yang Qian, saying, “Please give this letter to Mr. Lu; I think he will understand.”
Yang Qian hesitated for a moment, then took the letter and nodded, saying, “Wait a moment.”
Yang Qian turned around and walked back into the domain.
At this moment, another streak of light swept across the area from the light portal not far away.
The people around seemed to have already gotten used to it; their expressions remained calm as the light patterns swept past them, and they continued chatting and laughing as before.
Bao Feng looked at the light gate and said, “So the Hunting Magic Plains have truly been opened! I didn’t expect everything to be confirmed so easily.”
Bao Feng felt somewhat envious and said, “It seems the King should send someone over here too.”
…
Within the domain, there is an entire house that Lu Yu brought over along with its foundation from outside; this house serves as a temporary residence for Lu Yu’s mother.
In these days after the fair ended, Lu Yu had been busy preparing. He had asked Liu Xing to collect the remaining two materials needed for refining the Supreme Star Weapon, and had been getting everything ready ever since.
First, I need to forge the fifteen star-forged weapons that will be traded next month.
This process was also part of Lu Yu’s preparations for refining the Supreme Star Weapon.
After all, the Supreme Star Soldiers are stronger than the Level 9 Star Soldiers and are more difficult to cultivate.
Overnight, Lu Yu had already reached the stage of a thousand refinements.
It’s just that when used in refining the Supreme Star Weapon, I wonder how many refinements it can achieve!
Mother opened the letter brought by the storm and glanced at it, then nodded and said, “Mom, I’ll go out and take a look.”
“Xiao Yu,” Yang Qian said affectionately, stroking Lu Yu’s head. “Mom doesn’t want to interfere with your affairs, but you must also be more careful yourself. I’ve already lost your father; I don’t want to lose you too.”
Lu Yu looked at his mother and smiled, “Mom, don’t worry! I’ll be fine. I’m just fulfilling the wishes you and Dad had in the past. As for now, I have more than just one life to live.”
Lu Yu has another body hidden beneath the Blood Tower, and once this body dies.
It can be reborn once again.
“No matter how many lives you have, feel free to do whatever you want. But remember, don’t be careless—be cautious!” Yang Qian laughed and patted Lu Yu on the head, saying, “If there’s nothing else, invite Huowu over for dinner today.”
“Got it!” Lu Yu said with a smile, turning around.
Turned around in an instant—
Lu Yu’s aura was different now.
A cold, domineering aura emanated from Lu Yu’s body.
Lu Yu will always be that child in front of his mother.
But once he left his mother, he was no longer that child, but the supreme ruler feared and revered by the people of Huaxia!
Before entering the field, Bao Feng was scanning the surroundings.
He saw Lu Yu walk out and chuckled, saying, “Mr. Lu, I’ve long heard that you’ve built a solid defensive city. I wonder what level your Domain has reached? Oh, listen to me asking such a question. Given your strength, Mr. Lu, you must have already reached level nine, right?”
“You’ve come for the Kingmaker’s Tablet, haven’t you?” Lu Yu tossed the letter he held back into the storm, saying, “I don’t care what the letter says—go back and tell your king that I won’t sell this item.”
Bao Feng took the letter, his expression slightly stunned as he asked, “Aren’t you going to check the offer inside?”
“I’ve already found out about the King Cheng Stele these past few days; its value is beyond estimation. Moreover, the cause of its formation is very special, and such a transformation does not occur every time. Therefore, this item holds great allure for any powerful individual, including myself.”
Bao Feng said, “Since that’s the case, you should also know that without reaching the strength of a Hundred Sovereigns, the King-Making Tablet is nothing more than a useless object. And to achieve the power of a Hundred Sovereigns, even the current King dares not speak of it. After all, this world is different now—many things no longer exist, and breaking through has become extremely difficult. The strength of a Hundred Sovereigns is not something one can simply speak of lightly.”
“Some things are better kept in one’s own hands than entrusted to outsiders,” said Lu Yu. “If your king were to obtain this item and reach the level of a hundred zuns, it would be as if I had created a formidable enemy for myself. Once conflict arises, my chances of victory would diminish. Do you really think I would be willing to do that?”
Bao Feng slightly furrowed his brow, not expecting Lu Yu to have considered matters to such an extent. He inhaled deeply and coldly replied, “Mr. Lu, you are willing to spend two billion star spirit stones, even a Supreme Star Artifact, to exchange for something that might never be used in the future, something that might not even be available for sale! If that’s the case, all your efforts and investments will be completely wasted.”
“This is my own matter and has nothing to do with others,” Lu Yu said coldly. “I already suspected that Qin Hai would send someone. I assume Qin Tian has gone to the United States, right? That guy, after being dealt with by me, still hasn’t gotten over it, it seems. Go back and tell your king that if anything about the Kingmaker Tablet leaks out, even if Qin Tian is in the U.S., I will still come after him.”
“You—” Bao Feng, seeing Lu Yu’s expression so serious and his tone so harsh, couldn’t help feeling a trace of anger rise within her.
However, he kept Wang’s words in his heart.
This time, there absolutely must be no conflict.
Bao Feng remained silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, “Since that’s the case, please rest assured, Mr. Lu. All memories in Qin Tian’s mind regarding the King-Making Stele have already been erased. He absolutely won’t remember a single word. Moreover, my visit this time isn’t solely for this matter alone.”
As he spoke, Bao Feng solemnly said, “King has heard that you possess Supreme Star Weapons. He would like to ask how many of them you currently have in your possession.”
“He wants to make a deal?” Lu Yu had expected this and showed no surprise at all.
“No,” Bao Feng laughed. “Do you really think that since the King is called the King, he wouldn’t even possess a Supreme Star Weapon? It’s just that the King wants to know at what price you plan to sell your Star Weapon. Since both sides have Supreme Star Weapons, it would be best if the selling prices could be consistent. Otherwise, if the prices differ, won’t it give people room for choice? That would be an insult to the title ‘Supreme.'”
“I see. You mean we need to set a uniform price, right?” Lu Yu smiled and said, “This one is given away for the transaction. At least for now, I don’t plan to sell it yet.”
Bao Feng nodded and said, “I understand now. When Mr. Lu is ready to sell, please inform us first, and we will set the price collectively!”
Lu Yu said, “You can sell whenever you want; I don’t care! As for the price, I think it’s necessary to unify them. I will follow up on that. If there’s no need, why would I bother unifying with you?”
“Haha, Mr. Lu is right too. If that’s the case, then I’ll just reply to ‘Wang’ like this.”
Bao Feng was well aware that such an inquiry was actually a sign of respect.
Lu Yu’s strength has reached the level of Jiuzun.
At the current stage, there is no Sovereign who can stand against Lu Yu in battle.
As for the Demon Ancestor, such a physical form would be even more difficult.
Even Qin Hai himself can barely manage it now.
Therefore, he didn’t want to create too much tension with Lu Yu at this moment.
Actually, Qin Hai had already intended to sell the Supreme Star Weapon. He was worried that pricing it lower than Lu Yu’s psychological expectation would cause dissatisfaction, hence he inquired about it first.
Lu Yu having said that, there was no need to worry about selling the Supreme Star Soldier anymore.
After discussing both matters with Bao Feng, he then stood up to take his leave.
But just before he left, he suddenly stopped and said, “Mr. Lu, I think I should still remind you about one thing. The fact that the Demon Hunting Plains has opened in Huaxia has already spread across Earth. Many countries have begun preparing and are sending large numbers of warriors to Huaxia. Not only our King, but also several inheritors and some awakened Supreme Beings are coming as well. To use your words, this country will soon be filled with powerful experts, and conflicts are naturally inevitable.”
Lu Yu was slightly taken aback, then nodded politely to Bao Feng and said, “Thank you for the reminder, I’ll definitely be careful!”
The storm spread its demon wings and soared into the sky, vanishing between the clouds.
Lu Yu took a deep breath of the cold air, stared at the sky with a cold smile, and said, “An Overlord? With less than thirty Zun-level strength, I don’t even consider them a threat. As for my opponents, right now aside from the Demon Ancestor, only Japan’s Guardians remain! But it’s still not enough. My power is still insufficient.”
Lu Yu recalled the force of being repelled by that beam of light, and realized the vast difference between them.
There are still eight years left.
Lu Yu returned to his room and locked himself inside.
Everything is ready; tonight, we can begin the process of forging the Supreme Star Weapon.
It was time for him to sort out the items he had acquired through transactions.
He exchanged the Life Stone for one hundred bodies of the Demon Lord level. Additionally, with two hundred Star Essences, he obtained another twelve thousand bodies, among which fifteen were Star-grade weapons, and eleven of those were exchanged using the bodies.
That’s another eleven thousand bodies!
In addition, he had exchanged one thousand Grade Nine Star Spirit Stones for three thousand units in hand.
Now, with the additional ones in Lu Yu’s possession, combined with those he had previously discarded and those that had not yet been used, he had a total of twenty-seven thousand demon bodies in his grasp.
This was almost the entire body of a Demon Lord-level lifeform that had been hunted down by nearly everyone in Huaxia, and it was all in his hands.
If he activates the至尊 system, he can open it twenty-seven times.
However, Lu Yu’s ambition was even greater—he was about to activate a higher-level system.
A system that can be activated only once every ten thousand demon bodies of the Demon Lord level!
Now that he has such an ability, it must be activated now.
He certainly didn’t want to wait around helplessly, watching others activate the system.
Lu Yu cast the ten thousand bodies of the Demon Lord into the Celestial God System, followed by one hundred million Grade One Star Spirit Stones!
His body was immediately drawn into the black light.
“Congratulations. Your strength has reached the Ninth Zun, and you have been granted permission to enter the higher-level Zun system. Due to your investment of ten thousand Demon Lord bodies and one hundred million Star Spirit Stones, your qualification has been verified. From this moment on, you are permitted to enter the Zun system!”
