In no time at all, his departure was imminent.
Even holding the ’Huanglong Order’, any future return to Barbaric Dragon Star remained a vague prospect spanning unknown years...
"Jiang Ye."
"Don’t regret it," Bai Gui consoled him, "The guardian spirit praised it highly, but this Black Tower surely doesn’t match the ’White Dragon Court’ bequeathed by my master."
"White Dragon Court?" Jiang Ye’s heart stirred.
"Once you achieve your Seventh Break, control of the White Dragon Court will be yours," Bai Gui stated gravely, "As my master’s inheritor, you won’t be let down by his legacy."
"Oh?" A smile crept onto Jiang Ye’s face.
He recognized Bai Gui’s favoritism toward her master.
Still, treasures from a True God powerhouse were truly worth coveting.
"The Seventh Break draws near swiftly," Jiang Ye murmured to himself.
Just then.
"Wang Ye!"
"You’ve finally emerged." A graceful silhouette flashed past, carrying a sweet scent, shifting into the form of a girl in purple armor — none other than Zhao Zixuan.
Zhao Zishuang, icy and aloof, followed closely from behind.
Spotting Jiang Ye, delight bloomed on both women’s faces with captivating smiles.
"Wang Ye, congratulations."
"Conquering the fifteenth level of the Black Tower." A seldom-seen smile softened Zhao Zishuang’s frosty expression, "You’ve shattered Barbaric Dragon Star’s all-time record."
"Wang Ye, you’re incredible!" Zhao Zixuan bubbled with excitement, barely holding back from embracing him.
"Shattered a record?" Jiang Ye chuckled and shook his head.
He was aware it was merely a record spanning tens of thousands of years.
A millennium back, someone had climbed even higher.
"Brother Wang Ye."
A booming voice rang out, accompanied by a sturdy figure in golden battle armor: "Your explosive rise this time, vanquishing the fifteenth level as an extraordinary being, has stunned countless prodigies!"
"Brother Mo Xin, you flatter me," Jiang Ye replied with a shake of his head and a grin.
"I mean it," Mo Xin, clad in golden battle armor, boomed with laughter, "Now, all recognize you as Barbaric Dragon Star’s top extraordinary prodigy. The name Wang Ye echoes across the world!"
"Exactly."
"Wang Ye, plenty of folks are eager to see you right now," Bai Wei said, her smile radiant.
Draped in a light yellow gown, she radiated elegant poise, yet her stunning eyes locked onto Jiang Ye, sparkling brightly.
"Brother Wang Ye, we’ve prepared a feast," Mo Xin grinned, "To honor your record-breaking triumph — you have to join us."
"Fine," Jiang Ye agreed with a helpless smile, unable to turn down their eager summons.
"Oh, and."
"Zi Yaozhi of Purple Obsidian City and Bai Xi of White Obsidian City," Mo Xin added abruptly, "Both asked me for your contact details. Shall I pass them on?"
"Zi Yaozhi? Bai Xi?" Jiang Ye blinked in surprise.
He recognized them well: one led Purple Obsidian City’s extraordinary prodigies, dominating the Black Tower rankings until Jiang Ye overtook her.
The other topped White Obsidian City’s prodigies, her striking beauty etched in his mind.
"No thanks," Jiang Ye turned down the request firmly.
Bound to depart soon, he sought no extra entanglements.
"Got it," Mo Xin showed mild astonishment but held back: "I’ll turn them down on your behalf."
Jiang Ye felt a flicker of surprise.
Clearly, more than just those two sought to reach him.
But that was predictable.
His dazzling feat this round would draw many eager to connect.
"Sadly, I’m just a fleeting visitor," Jiang Ye sighed deep inside.
...
He exchanged few words with Mo Xin and the rest.
After some quick greetings, Jiang Ye headed back to his dwelling.
Before long, Barbaric Dragon Star’s network buzzed with the headlines.
[Historic Record Smashed! Extraordinary Genius Scales Black Tower’s Fifteenth Floor]
[History’s Number One: Wang Ye]
[Black Obsidian City’s Comeback! Wang Ye’s Legendary Name!]
...
Headlines swarmed the feeds, propelling Jiang Ye’s renown to the peak.
Through this spectacle,
Jiang Ye had firmly cemented his fame across Barbaric Dragon Star, his name thundering through every ancient metropolis.
"This mission’s almost done." A subtle smile played on Jiang Ye’s lips.
His journey’s goal never slipped his mind.
To forge fame!
Greater prestige meant richer prizes from this Divine Level quest.
Naturally, Jiang Ye wasn’t rushing off.
Barbaric Dragon Star brimmed with rare resources absent on Blue Star.
He aimed to stockpile as many treasures as possible before leaving, bolstering his cultivation road ahead.
"This feels off."
"Didn’t they say Black Tower trials draw elders’ attention?" A hint of doubt crept into Jiang Ye: "Why’s no one approached me yet?"
With his feat, forget elders —
Divine City Lords were probably watching him too.
As puzzlement filled Jiang Ye,
An aged voice resounded suddenly in his mind.
"Wang Ye," the elder intoned, "I’m Zhao Tiangang — you at home?"
"Yes." Jiang Ye’s eyes lit up as he sprang to his feet.
Whoosh!
He blurred into motion, rushing out to find a towering man at the entrance, dual swords at his back, radiating untamed ferocity.
"Greetings, Celestial Gang Palace Master," Jiang Ye bowed deferentially.
A Third Tier Demigod merited reverence anytime.
"Wang Ye,"
"Impressive work," Zhao Tiangang grinned at him, "Zixuan told me about you before, and I knew you’d burst onto the scene spectacularly."
"Just didn’t foresee"
"You’d obliterate Barbaric Dragon Star’s historic record." Zhao Tiangang gave a faint sigh, "I’d planned to take you as my apprentice, but now I see I fall short."
"Senior overstates it," Jiang Ye hastened to reply.
Though their first encounter, he sensed the immense might coiled in the man.
A Third Tier Demigod could easily guide Jiang Ye’s path.
Yet Zhao Tiangang’s tone hinted someone grander had claimed interest in him.
"The City Lord, perhaps?" Jiang Ye wondered.
"Very well,"
"Follow me," Zhao Tiangang smiled, "Someone awaits you at the City Lord’s Mansion."
His broad hand swept out, an unseen force hoisting Jiang Ye.
Whoosh! They streaked as light toward the City Lord’s Mansion.
