Divine God Against The Heavens

Chapter 783 Ch 783: Great Star Lord & Ye Xiao



Arriving in the hall, Ye Xiao asked in a flat tone. "Senior, you didn't come here just to thank me, right?"

Great Star Lord chuckled and said: "You're right. I came here mainly to invite you to join my Star Palace. For this, my Star Palace is willing to pay any price."

"Join our Great Star Palace? I'm not interested." Ye Xiao replied with a straight face. Although the current Great Star Palace was stronger than him and he knew his strength was not enough to go against an Exalted Ruler, with his speed of cultivation, Ye Xiao believed it'll take him only a few dozen years to become an Exalted Ruler. So there was no need for him to join the Star Palace.

Instead, he wanted to know the route of unknown vast land and go there. He wanted to meet the Ancient Gods.

The Great Star Palace smiled, he was not angered. A jade slip appeared in his hand that he flicked, causing it to suddenly fly toward Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao caught the jade slip in an instant. He scanned it with his divine sense, and his expression changed instantly. He saw that the jade slip contained some orders issued by Ancient Gods and this order was to find him.

"As expected of Ancient Gods. They have discovered my existence so early on." Ye Xiao's eyes flashed with light. He also wanted to meet Ancient Gods, and after seeing the order, Ye Xiao knew it would be easy for him to meet them if he want. Since that's the case, it'll be better for him to stay in the Star Domain for some time and understand this world more thoroughly.

There was also another reason he wanted to stay in the Star Domain for some while. It's because he doesn't know the attitude of Ancient Gods towards him. If they only want to know who he is and get along with him, then it is ok. However, if they are vigilant and regard him as an enemy, then he would be in great trouble if he is to meet them just like that.

So, he needed some time to be prepared.

But before that, he wanted to settle the matter with this Great Star Lord. From the way that the Great Star Lord gave him the Jade Slip, it seems like the Great Star Lord was threatening him.

After that, he changed his expression and stared coldly at the Great Star Lord, saying: "Are you threatening me?"

Wisps of killing intent emanated from Ye Xiao's body. He didn't want the Great Star Lord to take him for anyone he could bully. He wanted to let the Great Star Lord first know that he could stay in the Star Domain for some time but if the Great Star Lord wants to bind him here forever, then he was simply dreaming.

Although Ye Xiao's current cultivation base was only Nine Marked Heavenly Divine Lord, he was even stronger than a Ruler by some margin.

As an Exalted Ruler, the Great Star Lord could naturally easily block the pressure released by Ye Xiao, but for some reason, a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart, as if something terrifying was going to happen if this continued.

The Great Star Lord's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "I definitely don't have any intentions of threatening you, I just want to tell you, as an outsider, you are now in danger of being recognized and reported to Ancient Gods no matter where you go. As long as you are willing to join the Star Palace, I promise to try my best to hide your tracks. Even the citizens and city lord of this city who have already seen you will keep their mouths shut."

"If you are still unwilling, at most..." The Star Lord gritted his teeth. Then he let out a deep breath and continue to say: "...I can pretend to be a Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion and slaughter the entire city to keep your tracks hidden!"

Ye Xiao's face was full of shock. Was there really a need for this Great Star Lord to slaughter an entire city just to recruit him?

Ye Xiao immediately understood that there was a problem with this matter. Therefore, Ye Xiao stared at the Great Star Lord but did not give a specific answer.

The Great Star Lord smiled bitterly. He knew that it wouldn't be so easy to recruit him, so he had no choice but to tell him the general situation of the matter.

From the Great Star Lord's words, Ye Xiao finally understood the whole story.

First of all, the Evil-eyed Lions wreaked havoc not only in the Star Domain but in all other Domains. The Star Domain is the weakest Domain among the 12 Domains. Because of this, the Evil-eyed Lions wanted to destroy the Star Domain first. About two hundred years ago, many Evil-eyed Lions surrounded the Star Domain and were wreaking havoc. At that time, Great Star Lord had no choice but to let all Star Lord deal with those Evil-eyed Lions.

Evil-eyed Lions are no ordinary demonic beasts. In fact, they are not the real demonic beasts, they are just vassals born from the five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions who are said to have been dead and were buried in five different directions. But for some reason, they suddenly came alive a thousand years ago, and from that moment onward, they were causing trouble everywhere and trying to kill all the people of this world.

Maybe, the Star Lords slaughtered too many Evil-eyed Lions, causing the Evil-eyed Lions to take revenge on them this time. Behind the attack on this city, the purpose of Evil-eyed Lions was to lure Star Lords out and kill them, taking revenge for the previous slaughter.

Fortunately, Ye Xiao appeared and saved the Eighth Star Lord. Otherwise, Eighth Star Lord and this city would have been destroyed completely.

And since Ye Xiao killed all those Evil-eyed Lions this time, the Great Star Lord guessed that the Evil-eyed Lions' revenge on the Star Domain would not stop there. Thus, the Star Palace had to increase its strength.

If the Star Lord told those Ancient Gods about Ye Xiao, they would certainly receive some rewards, but in the face of the Evil-eyed Lions' revenge, these rewards would be useless. Those Ancient Gods would definitely not send anyone to help them. They are currently busy suppressing the Five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions. Although they are only God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions, their strength has already surpassed the God Realm. Even the combined attacks of numerous Gods are not enough to suppress those five Evil-eyed Lions. So, Ancient Gods needed to take action. Even though they were also only able to suppress the Evil-eyed Lions with all their strength, they couldn't kill them for some reason.

So, no God or Ancient God was willing to leave the Unknown Vast Land. Because the five God Levelled Evil-eyed Lions were also there.

Since they couldn't come or send anyone to help them, the most effective way to increase one's strength in a short period of time was to directly recruit an expert.

There were very few rogue cultivators in the Star Domain. Even if there were, it was likely that they would die because they did not have any power backing them. The true history of this world is only known to Gods and Ancient Gods.

If the Star Domain wanted to recruit a Ruler, Ye Xiao, an outsider, would be able to catch their eye. Although Ye Xiao is not a Ruler, he is more powerful than them.

After understanding the sequence of events, Ye Xiao closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. His finger was tapping on his leg.

'Since my existence has already been known by Ancient Gods, I will still be discovered if I leave the Star Domain and head to another place. Moreover, I don't know the attitude of Ancient Gods toward me. I'm also too weak right now.'

'Unless I keep cultivating in seclusion, how can I quickly improve my strength?'

'The Star Domain temporarily needs my strength. In order to prevent me from being discovered by Ancient Gods, the Star Domain must try its best to conceal my existence or give me a suitable identity.'

'Perhaps the Star Domain will betray me if they don't need my power one day. However, as long as I make the best use of my time to cultivate and increase my strength to at least Exalted Ruler, I won't be afraid of those Gods. At that time, only those Ancient Gods will be a threat to me. But I'm not here to fight them, I'm here to look for the Patriarch of Sky Ghost Race and break the seal sealing him. Anyway, in the near future, I have to meet Ancient Gods. So, it is better for me to stay in the Star Domain for some time and only go to meet the Ancient Gods after becoming an Exalted Ruler.'

'Moreover, if I were to receive some benefits from the Star Palaces, the speed at which my strength will increase in this world, will be terrifying. After all, this world itself is supporting me and treating me like its one and only child.'

Thinking of this, Ye Xiao opened his eyes and stared at the Great Star Lord. Finally, he said: "If I join the Star Domain, I wonder what benefits the Great Star Lord will give me?"
