A single disagreement, yet they were at odds till the end!
Some people were naturally like that, but there weren’t many of them. Even fewer people could become the strongest Taichu Yuan Venerates of a Great Era.
Although the Golden Deity had made the mistake of underestimating the powers of this world at the beginning, he chose to change as soon as he realized that things weren’t looking good.
He who understands the times is a wise man.
Luo Yunyang glanced at the Golden Deity and chuckled. “You made me display such great force and then apologized to me. How do you think others would view the Human Ruler? Are you playing around with me?”
The Golden Deity had originally thought that he would be spared when Luo Yunyang had smiled. He had never imagined that he would get such a reply from this fellow.
Although he was completely furious, he also knew that continuing to butt heads wouldn’t do him any good.
“Your Majesty, could you be thinking of eradicating me?” The Golden Deity eyed Luo Yunyang and laughed. “I can traverse through countless spaces and evade... evade that being’s grasp. I do have some methods.”
“We would both be in a losing situation if we continued to fight. It wouldn’t benefit Your Majesty in any way and it would only frighten the majority of people like me.”
Luo Yunyang grinned as he stared at the Golden Deity. “We would both lose? He he... Although I admit that you might have some techniques that can make me apprehensive, those methods absolutely aren’t enough to put me on the losing end of this situation.”
Luo Yunyang’s self-confidence made the Golden Deity gloomy. Feeling slightly peeved, he said, “Luo Yunyang, what are you trying to do?”
“You offended the dignity of my Imperial Court. If I were to let it go, wouldn’t my Imperial Court lose all its awe?”
Luo Yunyang smiled. “Since you have already laid out some foundations here, you would suffer considerable losses if you were to withdraw.”
The Golden Deity really felt like crying. Considerable losses? So many of you have attacked me that you have already caused me great losses.
However, he could only keep all these thoughts in his heart and say nothing aloud.
“My Imperial Court has just been established. If you are willing to humble yourself and serve as one of the Paramount Starlords of my Imperial Court, then we can discuss this further. Not only am I willing to turn a blind eye to what happened previously, but I can also give you half of Longlin Great Cosmos.”
The Golden Deity’s eyes widened. “You want me to become your subordinate?”
“Paramount Starlords aren’t subordinates of the Human Ruler but honorary officials,” Luo Yunyang said with a warm smile. “Other than listening to the dispatches of the Imperial Court to the war against the Mysterious Underworld Race and other enemies, you don’t have to follow any other instructions.”
The Golden Deity looked hesitant. Although he wasn’t willing to pledge his allegiance to Luo Yunyang, he had to admit that the conditions Luo Yunyang had offered were rather generous.
Becoming an honorary official offered massive benefits. Although he would be Luo Yunyang’s subordinate in name, all he needed to do was lend a hand in the war against the Mysterious Underworld Race and other enemies.
This sounded very worthwhile. After all, he had come from a distant timeline for the sake of this penultimate battle.
Even if Luo Yunyang didn’t order him, the current Human Race’s Divine Ancestor, who was a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, wouldn’t let him be.
Unless he could quickly break through to the Taiyi Yuan Venerate and determine his own fate.
“Then can the other members of your Imperial Court order me around?” The Golden Deity had already some ideas in mind when he asked this.
“In the Imperial Court, no one besides me can give you any orders!” The Golden Deity’s every action was watched by Luo Yunyang. How could Luo Yunyang not see that the Golden Deity was tempted? As a result, Luo Yunyang spoke in an unquestionable tone.
The Golden Deity had already made up his mind even before he had asked that question. Upon hearing Luo Yunyang’s answer, he replied at once, “In that case, I am willing to become the Paramount Starlord of the Imperial Court.
Luo Yunyang stopped attacking the Golden Deity. However, the 800 Yuan Venerates didn’t stop. They hadn’t been commanded by Luo Yunyang and they weren’t prepared to give up this opportunity to test out their recently-developed techniques.
The Golden Deity had a rather decent EQ and he knew what Luo Yunyang was thinking when he didn’t speak.
Although the Golden Deity found this a little humiliating, it would be a better outcome than his Golden Sacred Land being eradicated.
Therefore, after hesitating for a bit, he shouted out. “Your subordinate Jin Wudi pays his respects to His Majesty the Human Ruler!”
The conversation between Luo Yunyang and the Golden Deity was conducted through voice transmission. Although the White-Silver Deity and the other martialists knew what Luo Yunyang and the Golden Deity were discussing, they didn’t really care.
However, they had never imagined that the Golden Deity would lower his head and become subservient! This instant change in attitude was totally unexpected.
Although Luo Yunyang didn’t care what the others were thinking, the Golden Deity had an extraordinary cultivation base. Even though Luo Yunyang might be able to use the Great Obliteration to grind him out, it would consume too much effort.
Rather than exhausting that much effort and damaging the strength of the Human Race as well as his strength, why not allow the Golden Deity to join his Imperial Court? While the constraints weren’t a big deal, this would at least increase his overall strength.
“No need for formalities, Paramount Starlord. We are a family from now on. In the future, you can use the resources of the Imperial Court.” Luo Yunyang was forthright right from the start.
However, only he knew exactly how many resources his Imperial Court had.
Golden Deity Jin Wudi was both surprised and delighted upon finding out that he would get the resources of the Imperial Court.
Although he didn’t know exactly how many resources there were, the Human Ruler’s Imperial Court should have rather decent resources.
After instructing the 800 Yuan Venerates to stop for the time being, Luo Yunyang then turned toward the White-Silver Deity and the others, who seemed a little dumbfounded. “Everyone, my Imperial Court has just been established. I hope all of you can become honorary officials of my court.”
“The Imperial Court can ensure everyone’s current interests. Furthermore, I guarantee that all of you absolutely won’t be troubled by trivial, ordinary matters.”
“Everyone just needs to make a move on the Mysterious Underworld Race when the time is right.”
The White-Silver Deity and the other powerhouses were all moved when they heard Luo Yunyang’s conditions.
Even though they all had profound cultivation bases and had started to occupy their own territories after arriving in the 36 Great Cosmoses, most of them had generally wanted to fight alone.
They had recruited subordinates, but these subordinates were basically relying on them to survive and could provide little help.
Now, the conditions Luo Yunyang suggested didn’t tie them down in any way. Furthermore, they could utilize the Imperial Court and the Human Ruler’s resources. It was tough not to be tempted.
“If we are willing to enter the Imperial Court, what sort of treatment will we receive from Your Majesty?” The White-Silver Deity was the first to speak.
“Just like Jin Wudi, you will become the Imperial Court’s Paramount Starlords,” Luo Yunyang said with a smile. “I can guarantee that nobody will touch your training grounds. Besides participating in the war against the Mysterious Underworld Race and other enemies, you won’t be bothered by anything else.”
The White-Silver Deity and the others had been sent using great mystical techniques with the objective of increasing the strength of the Human Race from a future era.
It could be said that they couldn’t escape this fight. Plus, Luo Yunyang’s conditions basically didn’t restrict them. Right away, some of them started to talk in harsh voices.
The eyes of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other five widened. They had never imagined that Luo Yunyang would be crafty enough to actually beguile the returning powerhouses so quickly.
While Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others were half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerates in terms of cultivation base. They knew clearly that they might not be victorious if they were to fight with these returning peak Taichu Yuan Venerate entities.
Since they had been able to return, each of these people had shown great explosive strength. Perhaps they might even threaten the lives of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others.
“Should we also recruit some people?” the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler said while observing the White-Silver Deity and the others.
The cultivation bases of the White-Silver Deity and the others weren’t ordinary. If they could get them to join, then the Heavenly Court they established would be even more powerful.
Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky shook his head. “Although Tianding Realm’s territories aren’t small, we have no way of giving them places to set up their training grounds. After all, we can’t allow unfamiliar people with ulterior motives to enter Tianding Realm at will.”
“It would also be very difficult to bring out the benefits of the various families.”
What Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky said made the other five Heavenly Rulers frown. They were aware now that even though Tianding Realm possessed great strength, it also put some constraints on them.
“If too many people join, then won’t Luo Yunyang’s court be successfully established?” The Southwest Heavenly Ruler clearly sounded reluctant.
“Even if these people don’t join, Luo Yunyang’s Imperial Court will still be established. Take a look at the people he brought along. Although their cultivation bases are all over the place, each and every one of them is at the Yuan Venerate level.” Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky eyed the Southwest Earth Heavenly Venerate Ruler and lamented. “Regardless of the methods Luo Yunyang used, producing so many Yuan Venerates in such a short time really deserves our admiration.”
A powerhouse standing behind the White-Silver Deity who had a third eye on his forehead spoke up. “What if we don’t join the Human Ruler’s Imperial Court? Do we have to leave our own training grounds?”
Luo Yunyang smiled at the man with the good features. “I have already said that I won’t stop you all from establishing your training grounds. However, the 36 Great Cosmoses have their own region masters, who are important to us.”
“I naturally wouldn’t let out the 36 Great Cosmoses to people who are not in the Imperial Court. However, I will still arrange a place for everyone. Those ordinary Cosmoses and Voids can be used at will.”
The differences between a Great Cosmos and an ordinary Cosmos were imaginable. The training grounds that would be established would increase their strength. After hearing Luo Yunyang say all this, someone said right away, “I am willing to join the Imperial Court!”
Seeking benefits and avoiding harm was basically instinctive. Jin Wudi’s choice was like a spark, and those that followed were like wildfire. In a short time, more than half of the returnees were rushing to join the Imperial Court!
