"Jiang Yao..."

Even the usually aloof Kunyu King and King Yanzhu showed slight changes in their expressions.

"It's actually His Prince Jiang Yao! He's coming to the Junk Starfield to buy goods?"

King Danian from the First Universe Bank was somewhat puzzled. It was one thing for the core geniuses of the five major powers to be interested, but the model of buying goods and getting free Taobao-like value-added services from the Nine Great Trash Star Fields was quite attractive. The only drawback was that it was impossible to buy repeatedly and take advantage of the deals.

However, Jiang Yao has long been excluded from the group of "core geniuses of the five major forces" by most people. Now, when discussing the geniuses of the five major forces, they basically exclude Chiling, who is suspected of obtaining the Suolun Master, from the Giant Axe Coliseum where Jiang Yao fought against the giant axe.

"Prince Jiang Yao wants are the remains of weapons. I will go and prepare them immediately," King Longjue said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, Jiang Yao must be here for the opportunity to hunt for treasures in the Trash Mountain. His status is much higher than that of a typical Primal Secret Realm Master, so he needs to be strictly supervised to prevent him from stealing a large amount of assets from the Trash Mountain." King Yanzhu's voice was gentle, but his words made King Longjue somewhat annoyed.

Is this a suspicion that he might give Jiang Yao special treatment, granting him more than one medium-sized World Ring? Or is it a suspicion that he would allow Jiang Yao to use his own methods to massively relocate the Trash Mountain debris?

King Longjue, who usually didn't bother with King Yanzhu and couldn't afford to, inexplicably found himself with a lot of courage today. He laughed and said, "Your Prince Jiang Yao is not comparable to other Primal Secret Region Member. He has already passed through the Primal Heaven-Reaching Mountain at the Universe and Domain Lord levels. According to the rewards from the Virtual Universe Company, as long as he breaks through to the World Lord Level, he will immediately receive 3.1 billion points. How could he possibly be interested in the meager assets of the Trash Mountain Treasure Hunt? In the billions of years of the Wulong Star Field, only two or three people have managed to dig up Primal Hunyuan Unit worth over 100 million."

"If King Yanzhu has such concerns, His Highness Prince Jiang Yao is currently on his way to our Wulong Star Field. Once he arrives, you can personally warn him."

These words surprised not only the other King-level Immortal, but also caused the King Yanzhu's expression to change slightly.

Jiang Yao's sentencing of King Juehun to death, and the massive purge that swept through the entire Xuanshang Universe Country, have become major news affecting all of humanity's territory and even the Hong Alliance.

Three of the King-level Immortal who were involved in the Blood Source Liquid were imprisoned in the Star Domain Prison, and hundreds more Immortal God were executed or imprisoned.

If this happened in any other ordinary Universe Country, nearly half of the Immortal God in that Universe Country would probably have been wiped out.

Whether it was the Lord of Chaos City Lord's instruction, or the instruction of Youyuan Venerable or the Xuanshang Universe Lord, it was Jiang Yao who carried it out. How could this not make the Immortal God turn pale at the mention of Jiang Yao?

Although all the Immortal God, especially the immortals of the Giant Axe Coliseum, were more or less dissatisfied with Jiang Yao's overstepping his bounds in punishing the members of the Giant Axe Coliseum, the deterrent effect was definitely enough. At most, they would secretly curse Jiang Yao to be killed by the Alien Race as soon as possible.

Even the Undying Venerable, Universe Overlord, couldn't save King Juehun's life, so King Yanzhu's background was even less significant. Not to mention that even the Virtual Gold Master, who was supposed to stand up for his own King-level Immortal, acknowledged his disciple Chiling's report. The highest levels of the Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Coliseum were all standing behind Jiang Yao, making Jiang Yao a fearsome figure that no one dared to provoke.

The King Yanzhu was the one who cursed Jiang Yao from behind, causing him to offend Jiang Yao to his face. King Longjue was certain that this spoiled brat would never dare to do so. The biggest nemesis of a spoiled brat is a spoiled brat with an even stronger background.

"I've heard that Prince Jiang Yao and Chiling Highness are close. Jiang Yao even saved Chiling Highness's life once. Perhaps it won't be long before Prince Chiling Highness comes to the Junk Starfield to hunt for treasures. King Yanzhu, you'd better treat him well and keep a close watch on him." King Longjue said this final, deadly sentence before transforming into a Flowing Light and rushing out of the palace in high spirits.

The handsome face of the King Yanzhu had turned completely gloomy. Compared to Jiang Yao, his aversion to Chiling was even greater. Jiang Yao and he were not from the same system, while Chiling was not only his father, Venerable Shihuo's, junior brother, but he would even have to call him Uncle-Master if he saw him. Moreover, Chi Ling was highly valued by Venerable Shihuo. How could he feel comfortable with that?

But these are two people he absolutely cannot afford to offend.

King Yinge from the Universe Mercenary Alliance said thoughtfully, "His Prince Jiang Yao cultivates the Universe Chaos Stele, so collecting weapon fragments is very likely for forging Super Divine Weapon."

The four eyes of the Kunyu King, representing the Galaxy Bank, were icy cold. He nodded slightly and said, "Before his release, he had passed through the Primal Heaven-Reaching Mountain, a Domain Lord level cultivator. He must have at least reached the level of the 16th level of the Heavenly Bridge. But he is still some distance away from forging Super Divine Weapon. Could it be that he has already comprehended the Fifth Diagram of the Universe Chaos Stele in such a short time and reached the level of the 17th level of the Heavenly Bridge?"

Although no one present comprehended the Universe Chaos Stele, many people had some understanding of this most famous Chaos Stele of the Human Race.

King Yinge looked incredulous. "Does that mean that once he finishes forging the Super Divine Weapon, he'll reach the level of King-level Immortal and become a permanent resident of Chaos City, on par with us? Currently, the strongest of the world lord geniuses at the Core Layer of the five major powers is only at the Heavenly Bridge, which is basically their limit. They'd probably struggle to break through this level even after billions of years of training."

Law Comprehension at the World Lord Level does not reach the threshold of King-level on the 18th floor of the Heavenly Bridge, then crossing that threshold after becoming Immortal God will be like crossing an insurmountable chasm.

"To have reached such a level in just a few hundred years since entering the Virtual Universe Company is truly unprecedented. Only Chiling can compare to him. No wonder the Chaos City Lord favors him so much. Even if he were to create a hole in the sky, the Virtual Universe Company would probably support him to the end," King Danian sighed.

The King Yanzhu's expression grew increasingly gloomy. He let out a cold snort and then transformed into Flowing Light, rushing out of the palace.

The three remaining officials in the palace exchanged glances and smiled without saying a word.

King Danian sneered inwardly. This King Yanzhu had been flattered as a peerless genius for so long that he actually thought he was a genius? Compared to Jiang Yao or Chiling, his talent was mediocre.

Not to mention that although King Yanzhu always claims to protect the assets of the Wulong Star Field, he has done just as many rule-breaking things behind the scenes as they have. Who is Jiang Yao? If he were to try to find fault with the Wulong Star Field like he did with the immortals and forces of the Xuanshang Universe Country, let's see if the Venerable Shihuo can protect him? Will the Virtual Gold Master stand up for him?

Upon thinking of this, King Danian's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't let King Yanzhu offend Jiang Yao. He didn't care what happened to King Yanzhu, but he absolutely couldn't let it affect him.

"In the detailed accounts of the Wulong Star Field Region, Nine Great Trash Star Fields in the Human Territory, the name of No. 1 Jiang Yao appears. No. 1 Jiang Yao spent 1 million Virtual Universe Company points to gain the opportunity to enter the Wulong Star Field to purchase the Immortal Weapon Remnants. It is speculated that he will be in the Wulong Star Field for the next 10-30 days..."

Within the God Kingdom, at the highest level of the temple.

The Zerg Mother Nest, towering over ten kilometers high, stands at the center of the highest level, with a large number of golden Zerg Warrior gathered at its mid-tail; at a glance, there are no fewer than ten thousand.

Inside the hall, a Golden-Robed Man looked up, his eyes shining. "Master, this is our golden opportunity! Once we leave the Xuanshang Universe Country, Youyuan Venerable will no longer be able to descend at will. As you instructed, I have already placed pawns in Nine Great Trash Star Fields. The sixth pawn in the Wulong Star Field even contains King-level Immortal within its Inner World..."

"Do not act rashly." A gentle murmur echoed throughout the hall.

"But..." the Golden-Robed Man, eager to make a contribution, said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we can deal with Jiang Yao, the clan will definitely..."

"Hmph!" The gentle voice turned cold, instantly calming the excited Golden-Robed Man, who even shivered.

"King-level Immortal? Heh, have you investigated what other functions Jiang Yao's Silver Wings have, and what level of treasure they are?" the soft voice questioned.

"This..." The Golden-Robed Man hesitated.

"Have you investigated thoroughly what treasure Jiang Yao used to possess the basic power of Marquis Immortal?"

"Are you sure Youyuan Venerable didn't come along, or even that he's hiding beside Jiang Yao?"

"Universe Overlord personally protecting a Domain Lord- level genius?" The Golden-Robed Man was somewhat incredulous. "That's too exaggerated."

"There has never been a case of Universe Overlord protecting a Domain Lord- level genius before, so has there ever been a genius like Jiang Yao in human history?"

The gentle voice turned serious. "What's the rush? The Monster Race hasn't even made a move, so why should we be anxious? Let the Monster Race scout ahead for us. The clan has already made arrangements for Jiang Yao's matter, and I have already laid my pieces. The time is not right, so we cannot act rashly. Jiang Yao is an even more terrifying genius than that Kedi, and he must have a great secret. Therefore, we must have the same patience we had when dealing with Kedi. Only with sufficient patience can we reap the sweet rewards."

"Either we don't act at all, or we act decisively and plunge them into the abyss, leaving humanity no chance of rescue!"
