Thunder Ash is informed that the "Venerable" dispatched a peak demigod to assassinate Jiang Ye, but the attempt failed. The Venerable blames Thunder Ash for not identifying Jiang Ye as a promising talent earlier and assigns him to the frontier for another five hundred years. Meanwhile, Jiang Ye spends a day on the martial stage, amassing merit points and receiving visits from notable individuals within Huanglong Civilization, including Red Light of the Crimson Divine Race.

"What’s wrong?" Noticing Jiang Ye’s gaze, the girl in white socks looked over at him.

"..."

Jiang Ye hesitated, finally shaking his head and saying, "It’s nothing."

Seeing this, the girl didn’t say much, only giving him a faint, stunning smile before turning away.

"Strange."

"Why does Wang Zilu seem like a completely different person?" Jiang Ye stared at her back, deep in thought. "Did I feel it wrong?"

"What’s wrong?" Beside him, Chi Jiuxin noticed his expression and asked in confusion.

"Do you think that person just now has changed?" Jiang Ye asked in passing.

"That person just now?"

"You mean Wang Zilu, the current generation’s princess of the Royal Family?" Chi Jiuxin shook his head. "No change at all, she’s always been this distant and indifferent."

"Ah?" Jiang Ye scratched his head.

How did he remember Wang Zilu as a lively girl before?

Could he really have remembered incorrectly?

....

Not long after, Jiang Ye and Chi Jiuxin left the Red Mansion, flying towards their respective palaces.

But Jiang Ye suddenly received a message from Venerable Bai, so he decisively flew towards the direction of the Bai Race’s territory.

The Bai Race, as one of the Nine Great Divine Races of Huanglong, was no less vast than the territory of the Crimson Divine Race.

And at the core of the Bai Race’s territory, there stood a silver-white Divine Tower, towering tens of thousands of meters high, like a Divine Sword piercing the heavens, radiating endless light that covered the entire territory.

This was the usual residence of Venerable Bai—

[Saint Hall of the Venerable]

"Your Highness."

"Greetings, Your Highness." At the entrance at the base of the Divine Tower, many divine race guards saluted respectfully when they saw Jiang Ye arrive.

These divine race guards, at minimum, were beings of the Tier Four Demigod Peak.

Among them, the leader of the guards was a powerhouse at the demigod extreme.

But in terms of status, they were not equal to Jiang Ye, who was the direct disciple of the Venerable.

"There’s no need for courtesy," Jiang Ye said politely, then walked towards the majestic Divine Tower ahead.

Rumble~

The ancient, silver-white door suddenly opened, bursting with endless light from within.

Jiang Ye’s form flickered as he stepped inside.

Very soon.

A grand hall appeared before his eyes, and in its depths stood a massive high platform, on which a familiar figure sat cross-legged.

"Teacher." Jiang Ye respectfully saluted that figure.

"Swoosh~" The figure on the platform slowly opened their eyes, a vast aura blooming forth.

In that instant, Jiang Ye felt as though he glimpsed the vast Star River, feeling himself become insignificant, like a speck of dust.

Fortunately, this feeling was fleeting.

As Venerable Bai opened his eyes, that wisp of aura faded away.

"Teacher’s strength," Jiang Ye thought with astonishment.

He knew that what he just felt was merely an unintentional thread of energy from Venerable Bai, yet it made him feel like he was staring into the endless void, giving birth to a sense of insignificance.

Jiang Ye had no doubt.

If it came to a real confrontation, Venerable Bai could wipe him out millions of times with a single breath, even just a glance.

"When will I be able to possess such strength?" Jiang Ye felt desire rising within him.

At this moment.

"Ye Jiang."

"I have learned about the assassination attempt on you." Venerable Bai’s voice rumbled: "The one who ordered your assassination was under the command of Cangxu Civilization’s Venerable Tian Cang."

"Cangxu Civilization? Was it really them?" Jiang Ye was taken aback.

Once again, Cangxu Civilization!

A trace of coldness flashed in Jiang Ye’s eyes. In his view, this civilization had already committed numerous unforgivable atrocities.

And now, there was another one.

At the same time.

"Venerable Tian Cang," Jiang Ye also committed this name to memory; this life-and-death crisis was orchestrated by him.

"You don’t need to be too tense either."

"That Venerable Tian Cang dared to send someone to assassinate my disciple, and I will ensure he pays the price." Venerable Bai said calmly: "I have dispatched several fleets to the three resource planets under Tian Cang’s control."

"I just received the news."

"Those three resource planets have all been completely annihilated." Venerable Bai’s voice carried a hint of killing intent.

As he spoke, he also displayed a projection image.

It vividly depicted three battlefields, led by several Gods, launching a raid on these three planets, ultimately leading to their destruction.

"Destroyed three planets?" Jiang Ye was shocked.

It had only been a day since he was almost assassinated.

And the Cangxu Civilization had already lost three Life Planets?!

"Thank you, Teacher." Jiang Ye solemnly bowed, aware that all Venerable Bai had done was to avenge him.

At the same time, Jiang Ye couldn’t help but feel a wave of gratitude.

This is the benefit of having connections!

Without Venerable Bai’s backing, if Jiang Ye wanted to retaliate against Venerable Tian Cang, it would likely be an interminable process.

"I have long-held grievances with Venerable Tian Cang."

"After this retaliation, he might quiet down for a while." Venerable Bai said, "But in the long years ahead, Tian Cang will never cease targeting you."

"Remember."

"I can’t protect you for your entire life." Venerable Bai gazed down at Jiang Ye, "Ultimately, you’ll have to rely on yourself."

"I will remember, Teacher." Jiang Ye assured earnestly.

One must rely on one’s own strength!

Only by becoming strong oneself can one have no fear of any threats.

"Alright."

"I heard you have already cultivated the prototype framework of your natal Technique." Venerable Bai said warmly, "Show it to me."

"Yes." Hearing this, Jiang Ye’s eyes brightened.

He had come here with just that thought in mind.

From the prototype of the natal Technique to a true complete Technique, there remains a long journey, and guidance from the Venerable would undoubtedly shorten this process significantly.

Immediately, Jiang Ye did not hesitate in the slightest.

"Hoo!" Instantly, the astral patterns around him lit up, millions of starlights converging, transforming into a burning, radiant star that floated in front of him.
