Chapter 185
However, Li Yang also sensed Xuanyuan's overtures.
She steeled her resolve and mustered her courage, saying, "Thank you for Sage kindness, Sage. I wish to accept them."
Xuanyuan simply nodded slightly and said, "In that case, you are the sole winner of the third round of the arena."
Li Yang thanked him again with trepidation.
Xuanyuan's voice resounded throughout the audience, announcing the results of the Wise One Promotion Ceremony:
"Kong Shisan's Disciple, Men Jiu, has been promoted to Third-Class Wise One and given the code name Xuan Shiyi."
These words immediately caused another uproar in the audience.
Under normal circumstances, the code name for Third-Class Wise One is Subspace.
However, the Bone Peach Mother Tree received the code name "Xuan," a prefix reserved only for Xuanyuan's direct disciples!
Xuanyuan was essentially announcing to the world that the Bone Peach Mother Tree was his eleventh direct disciple!
In the audience, the Flower of Evil suddenly stood up, narrowing her eyes as she looked at Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan: "Holy Lord, don't be impatient. If you want her, she will still be yours. However, after you join the Lost Space Society, you will become the eighth Sage. If she is only a Sub-Void Wise One, her authority is too low to be accepted as your disciple."
Only the Flower of Evil can hear this sound.
At their level, they don't even need Spirit Connection to make it impossible for others to hear what they're saying.
The Flower of Evil said sarcastically, "Since Sage Xuanyuan has taken a liking to her, why bother pretending to offer her to me?"
Xuanyuan said, "I do value her, but compared to Xuan Shiyi, I value the Holy Lord even more."
The Flower of Evil then asked, "If I become the Eight Sage of the Lost Space Society and simply devour her, would the Sage even matter?"
Xuanyuan: "It is her good fortune to be able to merge with the Holy Lord."
The Flower of Evil hesitated.
Is he really going to join the Lost Space Society? And become that so-called Eight Sage?
Does the Upper Three Realms truly want to win him over?
The Flower of Evil felt that things weren't so simple, because Xuanyuan's attitude was too abrupt, and he seemed rather impatient.
The Flower of Evil has survived to this day in this ever-changing Astral Realm thanks to its keen sense of danger.
He was once Innate Sacred Object that everyone wanted to possess.
His experience was even worse than Lianxin's.
Xuanyuan's gesture of goodwill was so strange that it made him extremely cautious.
Xuanyuan added, "Holy Lord, please reconsider. If you do not wish to join the Lost Space Society in three days, you may leave on your own. However, you cannot take Xuan Shiyi with you."
To his utter surprise, Xuanyuan used Li Yang to blackmail him.
If Li Yang is merely a Bone Peach Mother Tree, then the Flower of Evil will at most lose a food source, which is of no consequence.
The problem is, Li Yang isn't food, but a master chef who can cook up exquisite malice.
If the food is lost, just bear with it; it will pass.
Without the cook, we'll never be able to eat such good food again.
The Flower of Evil decided to wait two more days and pondered, "I will think it over carefully."
Xuanyuan didn't press too hard, only nodding slightly in agreement, and then looked at Li Yang.
Li Yang's breathing became sluggish.
She was terrified of revealing her identity.
Can she really hide it from the gaze of the Divine Venerable Realm?
If it weren't for the serendipitous circumstances in the second stage, Li Yang would never have been able to keep it a secret.
But now, Xuanyuan has witnessed firsthand how she acquired her current Origin Soul.
Her Origin Soul is 90% similar to the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul of the Nature Department.
It was precisely this striking similarity that blinded Xuanyuan, causing him to completely disregard the slight aura of the Nature Department he sensed.
It's just an illusion caused by their similarity.
People tend to trust what they see with their own eyes more.
The Huaxia Heavenly Palace has indeed produced a "Light of Dawn".
But that Light of Dawn now the only remaining life in the Nature Department.
How could they bear to let the Light of Dawn venture into such perilous territory?
Moreover, he had already reviewed the information about the Bone Peach Mother Tree many times; there were no problems from beginning to end, and it hadn't been replaced at all...
The Bone Peach Mother Tree is just the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
Moreover, she deeply resented the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.
In addition, the Lost Space Society has been working hard to research how to create a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul.
They poured their hearts and souls into creating a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul with even 50% similarity!
The appearance of the "Light of Dawn" had a great impact on the Upper Three Realms.
The Nature Department have unexpectedly gained a new lineage; they must nip it in the bud.
Therefore, the Bone Peach Mother Tree in front of him accidentally created a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul with a similarity of up to 90%, making it hard for Xuanyuan not to be tempted.
Such creation is something that can only be achieved by chance.
Even though Xuanyuan watched the whole thing, completely replicating it would be incredibly difficult.
It's like how God King Daowu's disciples dissected a large number of the Nature Department Star Wielders in an attempt to recreate them one-to-one... but so far they haven't succeeded.
Moreover, those Nature Department Star Wielders were rescued instead.
The Huoji failed, but Xuanyuan unexpectedly achieved results.
Even if Huoji advances to the Ninth-Grade Supreme, he can forget about taking away Huoji's position!
Xuanyuan's gaze towards Li Yang grew increasingly gentle and calm, and his voice was no longer as cold as it had been towards others. He said, "Come with me, and I will bestow upon you the rank of Wise One."
Only Li Yang heard these words, but even those who didn't know what Xuanyuan had said still cast envious glances at the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
The Bone Peach Mother Tree is truly poised for a meteoric rise!
Chapter 185
Li Yang appeared excited and thrilled, but inside she was in a state of panic.
She didn't want to be alone with Xuanyuan.
What if the other party has already seen through her?
However, she was also trying her best to think things through calmly.
If Xuanyuan had already seen through her, there was no need to lure her to another place; he could have simply killed her on the spot.
Therefore, he most likely didn't see through her.
Just then, the voice of the Flower of Evil rang out at the perfect moment, answering Li Yang's questions.
"Don't worry, you created a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul right in front of him. Even if he senses Nature Department aura on you, he won't think you're Nature Department person."
The Flower of Evil watched the whole thing from the audience and was able to figure out Xuanyuan's thoughts, so she explained everything to Li Yang in detail.
Li Yang dared not respond to the Flower of Evil.
The Flower of Evil had the ability to speak to Xuanyuan in front of him, but she didn't have the ability to respond to him.
If it gets exposed, things will become very complicated.
The Flower of Evil, having figured out her cautious nature, said dismissively, "Even if he sensed I was talking to you, it doesn't matter. I've been asking him for you from the audience; it would be strange if he didn't talk to you now..."
Hearing this, Li Yang felt relieved.
However, she remained calm and did not respond to the Flower of Evil.
The Flower of Evil went to great lengths to protect Li Yang.
He recounted his conversation with Xuanyuan to Li Yang word for word.
If it weren't for the inability to use Time Rewind, he would have wanted Li Yang to experience it firsthand.
After hearing the Flower of Flower of Evil's account, Li Yang was no longer so flustered.
Unexpectedly, this second test inadvertently made her Vest up even more tightly.
As Li Yang recalled the Star Skill on his own Origin Soul, he couldn't help but feel admiration for the Marquis of Wind Pavilion.
He truly deserves to be one of the Twelve Marquises of the Star Nexus.
The combination of Star Skill meticulously crafted by the Marquis of Wind Pavilion is indeed extraordinary.
The combination of Star Skill is a profound subject. For Star Wielders of the same level, the quality of their Star Skill combinations determines the true difference in their strength.
Fortunately, Marquis of Wind Pavilion had balanced the wood- Star Skill and fire-type Star Skill very well, which allowed them to form a new cycle under the influence of Power of Water.
If it weren't for the Marquis of Wind Pavilion's intervention, the results might not have been so good.
The control over the details of matching is so precise that even the slightest mistake can lead to a huge difference!
Even more dangerous is that Li Yang might reveal his Huaxia identity when he can no longer hold on.
Then all our previous efforts would be in vain!
With information about the Flower of Flower of Evil, Li Yang was no longer so resistant. Instead, she calmly put on an expectant yet nervous act, following behind Xuanyuan.
Although Xuanyuan was walking, Li Yang could clearly feel the Power of Space surrounding him.
This Power of Space is constantly twisting and arranging, as if there are countless spaces overlapping and alternating.
To Li Yang's naked eye, Xuanyuan appeared to be walking on a path paved with white marble, but in reality, he was shifting between different spaces with each step.
Li Yang had to keep up with him so as not to lose him.
Xuanyuan didn't deliberately remind her, since the Bone Peach Mother Tree had already sensed the Power of Space, and could naturally sense that they had been walking through the gaps in the Three Thousand Spaces.
They appeared to have only traveled a short distance, but in reality, they traversed dozens of spatial Realm Domain.
When Xuanyuan stopped, the scene before him had changed.
The house that appeared out of nowhere was extremely magnificent, like a small church, with faint ripples on its deep blue dome, as if it were built beneath the deep sea.
Xuanyuan stood in the church, his posture even more upright. His deep blue eyes, hidden beneath his short hair, were exceptionally profound. When he stared at Li Yang, it was as if there was a surging light within them, easily seeing through everything about her.
Li Yang said cautiously, "Greetings, Sage Excellency."
Xuanyuan immediately asked, "Would you be willing to become my disciple?"
Li Yang: "!"
She hadn't expected Xuanyuan to be so direct.
However, her perfectly timed surprise actually reflected the state of mind of the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
After all, for the Bone Peach Mother Tree, to be valued by the Wise One Xuanyuan was an immense stroke of luck, so it was only natural that she would be surprised and excited.
Li Yang said with trepidation, "I am honored by your Sage favor, Shiyi not disappoint you!" Her use of the code name "Shiyi" was also a way of showing her sincerity.
