Lord of All Realms

Chapter 1637: You Want To Be A Dog, But I Don’t!

The figure manifesting in the pillar of light was actually Jiang Yuanchi, the sectmaster of the Shadow Society!

He appeared in the area where the Lightspirits were gathered.

Lightspirits carried bloodlines that contained the profound truths of light power. It was said that they had enjoyed a rather lofty status in the Void World before the Dark King of the Devils had risen to prominence.

As the Dark King had grown to show his unparalleled power, and the Devils had reached their prime, they had begun to reject and suppress the Lightspirits.

There had even been a time where they had massacred the Lightspirits.

At this moment, all of the Lightspirits were fixing Jiang Yuanchi with feverish looks.

Lightspirits had pale skin, golden hair, and feathered wings on their backs.

Unlike the Birdmen from the Spirit World, they didn’t have just one pair of feathered wings growing out of their backs. Some had multiple pairs.

After Jiang Yuanchi manifested himself in his dharma idol form, which was awe-inspiring and blindingly bright like a sun, all of the Lightspirits bowed towards him.

The two of them locked eyes.

“Nie Tian!”

“Jiang Yuanchi!”

FIZZ!

A beam of strong light seemed to suddenly drive all the darkness away from the area of the starry river between them.

Many outsiders of different races felt stabbing pain in their eyes as the uncomfortably strong light burst forth and filled the space between the two.

Even Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher of the Devils was flabbergasted, and stayed his Devil Cloud Halberd-holding hand. Face grim, he said, “I can’t believe the Lightspirits are looking at a human in such a worshiping way. Their expression and manners... They’re clearly treating that human as their leader, their high chieftain!

“It’s hard to believe while our invasion of the Mortal World has ended in failure, some human has come to our world and gained command of the Lightspirits!”

Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher was apparently upset, and shifted his focus from Nie Tian to Jiang Yuanchi without realizing it.

“Jiang Yuanchi!” Luo Wanxiang also exclaimed in shock.

He had been fighting two evil gods. After being startled by the blinding light Jiang Yuanchi had released, he looked over with rapt attention. Then, he shuddered and yelled, “The Void World is a wondrous land indeed! Even you’ve made your breakthrough here as well! I can’t believe that after me, another late God domain cultivator would be born here in the Void World!”

Many Seaspirits, Moonspirits, and members of the three major races were filled with disbelief as they gazed off at Jiang Yuanchi’s dharma idol, which was emanating endless light like a giant sun. “A human has become the Lightspirits’ new high chieftain?!”

“Jiang Yuanchi!” Luo Wanxiang yelled. “It’s very impressive that you’ve become the Lightspirits’ leader, but you’re still just one person! The Lightspirits still have to follow the leadership of the three major races! As their leader, you need to help us kill Nie Tian!”

“Hehe.” With a low, derisive laugh, Jiang Yuanchi cast Luo Wanxiang a look from afar. Then, eyes narrowed, he said with a biting tone, “You want to be their dog, but I don’t.”

Luo Wanxiang’s face turned ashen as soon as he heard these words.

There was no doubt that Jiang Yuanchi’s words had hurt him by using the worst thing he thought about himself against him.

The Devils, Netherspirits, and Bonedrudes’ expressions also flickered after they heard these words.

Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher’s face split into a nasty smile as he pointed his halberd towards the Lightspirits and Jiang Yuanchi. “Don’t tell me that you actually have the audacity to go against our orders. You may be worth fighting, but you’re not even a Lightspirit. Other than you, you don’t even have a single late tenth grade grand monarch, and you dare to stand up against us? Do you have a death wish?”

The way he saw it, like the Seaspirits and the Moonspirits, the Lightspirits were a weak race.

A weak race like them should just take orders from them and pay tribute to them on time in exchange for some living space.

Any Lightspirit, even their high chieftain, should remain humble and obedient when speaking to him, like talking to their superior.

Any Lightspirit who refused to follow his commands needed to be punished.

Jiang Yuanchi took a deep breath. “Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher, is it?”

Countless raindrop-like glowing spots in the pillar of light were taken into his dharma idol, causing his aura to build up to a point where even Nie Tian frowned in amazement.

Both Fan Tianze and Jiang Yuanchi had been considered great Qi warriors with transcendent battle prowess even before entering the late God domain.

Even though Chu Rui, Xuan Guangyu, and You Qimiao had been at the same cultivation base as them, none of them had been able to match the two of them in battle.

Furthermore, the power and influence of the Shadow Society had been exceeded by only the four great sects.

Now, Jiang Yuanchi, who practiced both light power and shadow power, had somehow managed to advance to the late God domain, win the acknowledgment of the Lightspirits, and become their leader.

This made Nie Tian, who had destroyed the Shadow Society in the Mortal World, look very grim.

He felt an even greater threat from him than Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher of the Devils.

Jiang Yuanchi didn’t show the slightest fear facing Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher’s threats. “My one and only goal in coming here is to announce that the Lightspirits will take orders from no one from now on! You Devils, Netherspirits, and Bonedrudes can forget about riding roughshod over the Lightspirits now!

“The Lightspirits will take orders from me and me alone. And I will protect the Lightspirits from any threat!”

His words were as powerful and resonating as it got!

Even Nie Tian was taken back, an approving look filling his eyes.

He had assumed that Jiang Yuanchi had come here to fight him just as Luo Wanxiang had. Who would have thought...

Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher flew into a rage. “How dare you challenge us?! What’s your name? Who is your backer? And you lot!”

He pointed at the Lightspirits with four pairs of wings on their backs who were standing next to Jiang Yuanchi. “You’re actually allowing a human to lead your people?!”

Hearing this, those Lightspirits said together with deep solemness, “His name is Jiang Yuanchi, and he’s our high chieftain from now on! Whatever he says, he says on behalf of all Lightspirits!”

“Alright! You asked for this!” After Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher let out a roar of fury, his mountainous devilish form shifted across the void and instantly arrived in the area where the Lightspirits were gathered. He lifted his foot, which was covered in sharp thorns, and stomped towards their starship.

By doing this, he intended to punish the Lightspirits and, at the same time, set an example for the Seaspirits, the Moonspirits, and the other minor races, lest they disobey them as the Lightspirits had.

“Like I said, I’ll protect the Lightspirits from now on.” Jiang Yuanchi tilted his chin to fix Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher with a dark stare. “Shadow Fetter!”

The shadow Jiang Yuanchi’s brilliant dharma idol cast on Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher, who was ten thousand meters tall, suddenly grew lifelike.

In the next moment, it somehow jerked around and stopped his descending foot with its hands.

No matter how much power he mustered, he couldn’t crush the Lightspirit starship, which was right underneath his foot.

At the same time, he had an incomparably peculiar feeling that his own power was fighting against him...

It appeared that his own shadow was mobilizing his flesh power to fetter him and stop him from punishing the Lightspirits.

Some Demon that had joined them from the Mortal World called out to warn Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher. “Grand Monarch, that’s shadow power, the most wicked kind of power that the humans cultivate!

“The humans’ Shadow Society is the most skilled with shadow power! It was through shadow power that Gupi was sealed, its rampage in the Mortal World and the Spirit World put to a stop! Please be careful, Grand Monarch!”

The three major races of the Void World had taken some loyal Demons, Phantasms, and Bonebrutes that had potential with them when their invasion of the Mortal World had failed, forcing them to retreat through the Seven Stars Realm Sea.

Those outsiders from the Spirit World naturally knew about the Shadow Society and their use of shadow power.

A strange expression appeared on Grand Monarch Gloom Butcher’s face. “Shadow power? The Lightspirits’ bloodlines contain the profound truths of light power. Why would a race like them swear allegiance to a human who also practices shadow power?”

He found this baffling.

Nie Tian, who felt forgotten, rubbed his nose. “Now, this is awkward.”

Then, he ordered the evil gods, “Considering the situation, why don’t you join hands and get rid of that traitor Luo Wanxiang first?”
