Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1550 - 1548: Do You Want Some?
The starboat had not yet approached the Indeterminate World when Lu Ye noticed someone spying from afar. It seemed Kang Cheng had reported his encounter upon his return, putting them on alert.
The one observing was a Moon Jade cultivator, which made Huah Sheng secretly groan, praying for things to go smoothly afterward. If negotiations fell apart and they ended up at odds, regardless of Lu Ye's outcome, Sun Blaze's future would be bleak.
Sun Blaze's situation was already not favorable, relying on the grace of the Indeterminate World to survive. Being accused of collusion would leave the Indeterminate cultivators with no way out.
They continued forward, and near the Indeterminate World's vicinity, a row of figures blocked their path, with Kang Cheng taking the lead.
Kang Cheng's face was somewhat pale, obviously related to the injuries he sustained a few days ago. However, his shattered arm had regenerated, which, for a Moon Jade, was no difficult task, only needing a price to be paid.
Besides Kang Cheng, there were five other Moon Jade cultivators, both male and female, each exuding strong auras, highlighting the formidable foundation of the Indeterminate World.
Of course, these were not all the Moon Jade cultivators of the Indeterminate.
On their journey, Lu Ye and Huah Sheng had inquired about the Indeterminate World's foundation, discovering it had three Sun Blaze cultivators, though two were frequently traveling and seldom seen. Thus, only one Sun Blaze resided within the domain, serving as the World Lord of the Indeterminate World, named Jyang Shang.
Huah Sheng's starboat stopped ten miles away from the Moon Jade cultivators, a distance easily breached by them.
Staring at the lineup ahead, Huah Sheng felt secretly tense, unsure of the Indeterminate side's stance. Meeting Lu Ye's eyes, they both disembarked from the starboat.
Yaya was already awake, riding on Lu Ye's neck, gripping his hair with a nonchalant expression, her small legs swinging over Lu Ye's chest.
All eyes gathered on the seemingly inconspicuous Yaya, clearly knowing Yaya's Sun Blaze background.
Led by Kang Cheng, the six Moon Jade cultivators bowed in unison: "Honored guest's arrival brightens our humble domain, warmly welcoming you!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Seeing this, Lu Ye's eyebrows rose, realizing things hadn't taken a turn for the worse.
Even if Kang Cheng had lost an arm to Yaya before, it was his offense in the first place. Had Yaya wanted his life, he wouldn't have survived. Losing only an arm was quite fortunate for him.
In stellar space, offending a Sun Blaze had grave consequences. Kang Cheng, being late-stage Moon Jade, knew better than to hold a grudge.
Even if he did harbor resentment and sought his domain's Sun Blaze's intervention, who knew who would emerge stronger? Plus, a confrontation between Sun Blaze cultivators wasn't easily resolved. No one wanted to see Sun Blaze powerhouses clashing within their home galaxy.
Considering all factors, Kang Cheng could only pretend nothing had happened before, yet he couldn't guess if the seemingly childlike Sun Blaze powerhouse across from him held any grudges.
Thus, over the past days, Huah Sheng had been anxious about Indeterminate's attitude, while Kang Cheng was even more apprehensive...
Now with the Indeterminate World's stance clarified, it was up to Lu Ye to respond.
Lu Ye understood, clasping his fists in salute: "Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens, greetings Fellow Daoists!"
In terms of age and cultivation, calling them seniors wasn't an issue. However, he was acting on behalf of the Jade Conch, and with Yaya present, he couldn't afford to seem weak.
The Moon Jade cultivators exchanged glances, one female furrowing her brow: "Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens? Are you the Lu Yiye who participated in the Reincarnation Tree Divine Sea struggle years ago?"
Even Sun Blaze had participants in the Divine Sea struggle, and naturally, so did the Indeterminate World. The leader was the female speaking, though her Divine Sea participant had perished shortly after the struggle began in the Taichu Realm, much to her regret.
She hadn't left immediately, waiting until the Taichu Realm closed, so others might not know of Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens, but she had heard of him.
Returning home, she spoke of the event to the local Moon Jade cultivators, leaving all astonished. After all, in such a competition, a Divine Sea Level 8 standing out was extraordinary.
"Indeed!" Lu Ye replied calmly.
The female scrutinized him, shocked at his rapid cultivation improvement, yet somewhat reassured: "No wonder you were able to surpass Luo Shenzhi."
As she spoke, her Mental Consciousness surged, discreetly transmitting audio to the nearby Moon Jade cultivators.
Back then, besides Lu Yiye's performance, the female was also astounded by the powerhouse accompanying him, though others only noticed Yang Qing's distinctiveness and strength. Because of her bloodline, the female sensed Yang Qing's terror slightly more.
Recounting the event now, the expressions of the surrounding Moon Jade cultivators grew increasingly grave.
Kang Cheng bitterly regretted, realizing that after hearing Xu Dingyang's account, he had hastily assumed Lu Ye was a promising talent, intending to recruit him into the Indeterminate World to counter Luo Shenzhi, never imagining such a terrifying background behind him.
If he had known earlier, Kang Cheng would never have acted as he did.
Now, it seemed there were at least two Sun Blaze cultivators behind Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens: the one who took him to the Reincarnation Tree and the little girl sitting on his shoulders.
This is what they know, who knows if there are more? That Nine Heavens World must be an extremely formidable top domain.
How could such people be coveted by Indeterminate? If they forcibly keep them, it might bring trouble upon themselves.
Because of Yaya's presence, the Indeterminate side dared not act rashly. Now, after the woman's audio transmission, several Moon Jade cultivators paid even more attention.
Lu Ye spoke, "I have come here abruptly to discuss an important matter with your domain. I wonder if it's convenient?"
Kang Cheng was no longer the cold and aloof figure from before. His face blossomed into a smile, "Since there is an important matter, please, Fellow Daoist, come in for a conversation."
Huah Sheng had told him a few days ago that he would bring Lu Ye to Indeterminate to discuss some important matter. At that time, Kang Cheng didn't pay attention, but now it seems Huah Sheng wasn't deceiving him.
"Pardon the intrusion!" Lu Ye nodded and stepped forward, Huah Sheng closely accompanying him.
While walking, Lu Ye was in the center, with several Moon Jade cultivators from Indeterminate flanking him. Kang Cheng and Lu Ye made small talk occasionally, introducing the enchanting scenery of their domain.
They also seemed to notice that even though the little girl riding on Lu Ye's neck was a Sun Blaze expert, the trip seemed to be led by Lu Ye. Moreover, the girl gave off a strange feeling, more like an innocent child, not at all like a Sun Blaze.
Only Kang Cheng was aware that beneath the cute and naive exterior was genuinely Sun Blaze cultivation.
Entering the domain and arriving at the Indeterminate Sacred Palace, where the clouds were misty, rare beasts and extraordinary birds ran and soared freely in the wild. Amidst the swirling mist, the pavilions and towers were faintly visible, with rugged stones strewn across the mountains, and a silver waterfall hanging straight down for three thousand feet, presenting a magnificent sight.
On the tallest and grandest peak, stood a majestic great hall. Kang Cheng and others led Lu Ye to this place, and Lu Ye immediately sensed an endless pressure subtly emanating within the hall.
Sun Blaze!
Lu Ye understood that there was a Sun Blaze expert inside the great hall, probably the World Lord Jyang Shang of this domain.
It's not hard to understand; since Lu Ye brought a Sun Blaze over, naturally the home domain's Sun Blaze must make an appearance; it's a display of presence.
That endless pressure, though intense, did not affect him too much, indicating there was no intent to trouble him.
That pressure targeted the girl Yaya riding on Lu Ye's neck!
At the Sun Blaze level, experts naturally wouldn't trouble a Constellation without cause; only another Sun Blaze expert would catch their interest.
Yaya was originally looking around leisurely atop Lu Ye's head, her expression carefree, but upon arriving here, she suddenly puffed her cheeks and jumped away like a monkey, directly heading into the great hall.
Lu Ye was shocked and hurriedly shouted, "Yaya!"
But Yaya was already out of sight.
Lu Ye quickly stepped forward to chase after, and Kang Cheng and others had no choice but to follow.
Once Lu Ye entered the great hall and looked up, he finally saw Yaya's figure. She stood at the forefront of the hall, where there was a desk, and behind it sat a middle-aged man looking like a scholar, holding a feathered fan. The endless majesty Lu Ye felt was exactly emanating from this person.
This was clearly Jyang Shang, the World Lord of Indeterminate World.
Jyang Shang had a feather fan in his hand, initially seemed to be gently fanning himself, but now inexplicably froze, concentrating on Yaya who stood facing him, with a grave expression.
Yaya didn't look at him; she only stared at Jyang Shang's desk, on which were three fruit plates. One plate held grape-like berries but crystalline, another had two or three pear-like spirit fruits, and one plate contained some red small fruits.
"Do you want to eat?" Yaya suddenly looked up at Jyang Shang, her eyes clear.
Jyang Shang's eyelid visibly twitched, momentarily unsure how to respond.
"Then I'll eat!" Yaya became delighted, grabbing the pears and red small fruits with both hands and stuffing them into her mouth, looking like she hadn't eaten for a long time.
In the blink of an eye, the two plates of spirit fruit were cleaned out by her, then she picked up the plate with grape-like berries, eagerly running to Lu Ye, raising it as if to show off: "Daddy, delicious!"
Lu Ye's mouth twitched slightly.
The hall instantly fell silent, with a pin-drop audibility, all eyes focused on Lu Ye. Kang Cheng and others' mouths were agape, nearly wide enough to fit an egg, completely disbelief.
Lu Ye then realized that the hall wasn't only occupied by Jyang Shang. Behind the table on the left side were two more people. He didn't recognize one, but the other looked very familiar, this person now watching Lu Ye with great interest, slightly smiling, making one feel as though bathed in a spring breeze.
This person was clearly Luo Shenzhi.
