Chapter 484: Family
Chapter 484: Family
"I never expected that apart from the Ancient Torch Palace and the Origin of Divine Artifacts, Ancient Torch True God would also leave behind a treasure worth a million cubic divine crystals," Li Yuan thought to himself.
The sight of the vast number of treasures he had just witnessed still left an impression on Li Yuan's heart.
After passing the fifth trial of Ancient Torch True God, Gu You completely lifted the restrictions on Li Yuan.
Not only did he further recognize the Ancient Torch Palace as his master, but he could also refine the Origin of Divine Artifacts.
The numerous treasures stored in the 'Treasure Vault' of the Ancient Torch Palace were also at Li Yuan's disposal.
Most of them were divine artifacts, and there were also several true divine artifacts, but they were all relatively ordinary, each probably worth only a few hundred thousand cubic divine crystals, not even close to the value of the Demon Palace.
The Demon Palace, on the other hand, was worth several million cubic divine crystals.
Of course, the most important treasure left behind by Ancient Torch True God was still the Ancient Torch Palace and the Origin of Divine Artifacts.
The former was worth tens of millions of cubic divine crystals, surpassing the main battle treasures of most true gods in the Divine Realm. Once unleashed, its power would be terrifying.
The latter was even enough to make the Heavenly Deities salivate.
Whoosh!
A figure flashed by, and it was none other than Liu Bing, "Big Brother, San Ye Demigod has already rushed over, but since you were in seclusion earlier, I didn't want to disturb you, so I didn't bring her along."
"Okay, please invite San Ye Demigod over," Li Yuan said, his divine sense perception was astonishing, and he had already sensed the waiting figure in the distance.
Soon.
"Li Deputy Leader." San Ye Demigod hurried over.
Her status was unique, but after witnessing Li Yuan's ruthless side, she couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence as he had flipped his palm and annihilated millions of lives.
She was about to bow, but an invisible force supported her.
This made San Ye Demigod slightly surprised.
"San Ye Demigod," Li Yuan smiled and said, "Although the principal is not my teacher, in my heart, his status is almost like a teacher. He has guided and protected me on my cultivation journey... In that case, you are also like a teacher to me, and a senior. How can I accept your bow?"
"You can just call me by my name," Li Yuan said.
San Ye Demigod's face flashed with a smile, and she nodded, "Alright, then I won't be so formal."
"Li Yuan, two things," San Ye Demigod said.
"First, we are about to send a special envoy to the Immortal Ruin Civilization and the Ten Thousand Dazzling Civilization to invite them to witness the ceremony."
"These two civilizations are the hegemons of the Mortal Realm."
"According to your previous orders, you said before departure to let us deliver a gift to them. I wonder what it is?" San Ye Demigod asked.
A special envoy?
"It's just a warning to them," Li Yuan smiled slightly, "I'll write it now."
Write? San Ye Demigod was taken aback.
Li Yuan waved his hand, and two scrolls of special blank paper appeared in the void.
"Wow!" Li Yuan used his finger as a brush, drawing in the void. The invisible force had already condensed into words and landed on the paper.
Several lines of text formed quickly.
"Good," Liu Bing revealed a smile.
"This?" San Ye Demigod looked at the invisible aura emanating from the words and asked with a hint of concern, "Li Yuan, isn't this too much?"
She had a sense of reverence for the Immortal Ruin Civilization and the Ten Thousand Dazzling Civilization.
"San Ye Demigod, rest assured," Li Yuan smiled faintly, "The news of the annihilation of the Demon Civilization should have already spread. By sending a special envoy with this letter, they will naturally understand my strength."
"As long as there are no true gods, they will submit."
"Even if there's an extremely low probability that these two civilizations have true gods backing them," Li Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of light, "As long as those true gods aren't foolish, they won't oppose me, and they might even take the initiative to not be my enemy."
If there were true gods, it would make Li Yuan happy.
Because, to investigate the truth about the fall of Ancient Torch True God a million years ago, the probability of true gods knowing about it was much higher.
After all, the lifespan of void gods was only five thousand years, and none of the living void gods were involved in the incident.
"Okay, San Ye Demigod nodded, "By the way, according to your previous orders, we have already sent a message to these two civilizations to evacuate their void gods and stop pursuing Lie Feng Demigod."
"But, they haven't replied yet."
"Okay," Li Yuan nodded.
"Then I'll take my leave. I'll make sure the special envoy departs as soon as possible," San Ye Demigod said, holding the two special scrolls, and quickly left.
...
Seeing off San Ye Demigod.
"Big Brother, Lie Feng Demigod is also your teacher. Why didn't we go to rescue him personally? Why bother sending a message?" Liu Bing asked in confusion.
"The incident happened several months ago."
"Under the siege of multiple void gods, if Lie Feng Teacher was to be captured, he wouldn't have been spared," Li Yuan shook his head, "And if we were to rush over, traversing the starry sky, it would take us five days just to reach the Ice River Galaxy."
"It's faster to directly warn the two civilizations."
"As long as those void gods give up the pursuit, Lie Feng Teacher will be safe, and then we can go over to pick him up," Li Yuan said.
Liu Bing seemed to be deep in thought.
"Additionally,"
"The annihilation of the Demon Civilization is an inevitable grudge," Li Yuan said softly, "But when dealing with other civilizations, we don't need to be too domineering. After all, we will be leaving soon, and for civilizations like the Ten Thousand Dazzling Civilization, it's difficult for us to truly annihilate them."
"Even if we do, so what?" Li Yuan shook his head, "With the power of our Seven Star Civilization, can we really conduct a large-scale population migration to their planets? We can't swallow everything in one bite."
Li Yuan's plan was for the Seven Star Civilization to digest the newly born life planets in the dimensional planes and the territories of the Demon Civilization.
It was fortunate that the Demon Civilization was connected to the Seven Star Plane through the Nine Dragon Divine Armor.
In the vast expanse of the starry sky, there are inherent drawbacks to occupying other dimensional planes.
"The plan to expand on a large scale and occupy the entire mortal realm can wait until we become a Divine Emperor and return from the Divine Realm," Li Yuan expressed his thoughts.
"Mhm, as you say, big brother," Liu Bing nodded.
"Let's go, follow me to see Uncle and Auntie," Li Yuan smiled and said, "I heard that Mu Hua and Qianqian have children now."
"Big brother's niece and nephew?" Liu Bing's eyes lit up, "Let's go, big brother, let's see them quickly."
...
Feixing, Feilan City.
This city was built around the third Star Realm exit, serving as the connection between Feixing and Lanxing, hence its name.
"Are the preparations for the celebration ceremony starting?" Li Yuan waited in the hall, looking down below.
With Li Yuan's perception, he could easily infiltrate every corner of the city, leaving no secrets.
"Yes."
"Li Yuan, the news of your demise in the Demon Civilization is gradually being made public," Lan Te, the Half-Deity, smiled and said, "All the planets are preparing for celebration activities, and Feixing will definitely be the liveliest."
"After all, Feixing has suffered multiple invasions from the Demon Civilization, the most brutal of them all," Lan Te, the Half-Deity, sighed.
He had come specifically to accompany them.
"As the core of the civilization's dimensional plane, Feixing is indeed not easy to manage," Li Yuan nodded.
Suddenly—
Whoosh! The distant hall's doors opened, and a group of people entered. Li Yuan and Lan Te, the Half-Deity, both turned to look.
"Big brother."
"Xiao Yuan."
"Brother!" Several excited voices sounded, and one of the figures rushed over, hugging Li Yuan directly. There were even tears in her eyes: "Brother, you've been gone for over a decade, I thought..."
"Haha, am I not back now?" Li Yuan smiled, patting his sister's shoulder, also feeling a bit emotional.
In a daze—
Li Yuan recalled the times when he returned home during middle school, and his younger sister, Li Qianqian, would always cling to him like this.
In the blink of an eye, more than three decades had passed.
"Qianqian, be more steady, you're a mother now," Chen Hui's nagging finally arrived.
Putting down his sister, Li Yuan looked at Uncle and Auntie, filled with apology: "Uncle, Auntie, these years..."
When he left, Li Yuan only told Uncle and Auntie that he would be gone for a few years.
He never thought it would be this long.
"Xiao Yuan, there's no need to say these things," Li Changzhou interrupted Li Yuan, seeming to sigh and smile: "On the way here, Bai Shan, the Half-Deity, we already know what you've done, as a pioneer for the civilization, and now you've even destroyed the Demon Civilization."
"You've done well, and it's right."
"The small family should follow the big family." Li Changzhou sighed: "For these hundreds of years, our entire civilization, countless people have died at the hands of foreign races, especially the Demon Civilization... Our civilization has faced countless dangers, and a single misstep could lead to its complete destruction."
"My nephew has managed to take this step."
"Becoming the strongest in the entire civilization, we also feel honored," Li Changzhou's eyes shone with light.
Chen Hui, Li Qianqian, Li Mu Hua, and the others, all had a glimmer of excitement in their eyes.
They truly felt honored!
For over a decade, Li Yuan had been out of contact.
After Sang Qiu, the Half-Deity, died in battle, the Li family became even more low-key, and they even suspected if Li Yuan had passed away.
Never would they have thought—
Li Yuan's return caused a huge wave in the entire civilization, making them excited and also feeling a bit dreamy.
"Uncle, Auntie, have you been well these years?" Li Yuan asked.
"We're doing well," Li Changzhou smiled and said, "Bai Shan, the Half-Deity, arranged for us to live in the country of Han. Qianqian and Mu Hua..."
"Xiao Yuan, everything else is fine," Chen Hui sighed beside him: "After Sang Qiu, the Half-Deity, passed away, there were often people coming to ask for treasures, and today, there were two from the Yi Luo family..."
"Uncle, what's going on?" Li Yuan frowned.
"It's not a big deal," Li Changzhou shook his head.
Li Yuan directly looked at Lan Te, the Half-Deity, beside him: "Lan Te, I remember, Sang Qiu, the Half-Deity, is the Half-Deity of the Black Rock Martial Hall, right?"
Lan Te's face turned iron-blue, and he nodded: "I'll immediately inform Sang Qiu, the Half-Deity, and Bai Shan, the Half-Deity, to investigate. I'll definitely give you a satisfying explanation."
"Later, I'll also ask Elder Yun to summon the planet's surveillance."
"No matter who is involved, they'll be killed." Lan Te's tone was solemn: "If it involves a Half-Deity, once it's investigated and confirmed, I'll ask Elder Yun to directly deploy the guarding forces to capture them."
He understood Li Yuan's past experiences and was clear about the weight of family in Li Yuan's heart, naturally not daring to be careless.
"Mhm," Li Yuan nodded.
With his divine consciousness, he could confirm that his family members were unharmed, so he didn't truly get angry.
His family was the bottom line in Li Yuan's heart.
Chen Hui, Li Qianqian, and the others were shocked by what they heard.
Although they knew Li Yuan's strength had become extremely terrifying, they hadn't personally experienced Li Yuan's terrifying influence.
Lan Te? They now understood the strength and identity of the black-haired elder, the founder of the Black Rock Martial Hall and the leader of the civilization.
But facing Li Yuan, they seemed to be at a disadvantage.
"Me?"
Chen Hui hesitated: "Xiao Yuan, they didn't actually do anything wrong, is it too much to arrest them?"
Just now, she was just habitually complaining.
"Aunt, it's not excessive, it'll be fine once it's investigated," Li Yuan smiled: "Don't wrong the innocent, but also don't let the bad people go."
"These are Xiao Yu, Qingqing, and Xiao Mu Hua," Li Yuan smiled at the three children.
The three children had curiosity and reverence in their eyes, as this was their first time meeting their great-uncle (great-uncle).
