Chapter 351: Reclaiming the Subordinates

Within the realm far distant from the Primordial Star.

Two thoughts crossed infinite distance and converged here; one of them formed an Illusory Shadow that cloaked a serrated shell, had a sharp tail, and held a spear in its hand.

The other thought formed a silver‑white serpentine Illusory Shadow, surrounded by countless Snake Shadows, and it was Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha.

"Zhenjiao, I've already told you the situation; what should we do next?" Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha transmitted.

"That human, only at the Lord of the Universe level, already possesses Sixth-tier Strength; within the Primordial Universe we cannot target him, so we'll wait until he enters the Cosmic Sea," Zhenjiao transmitted, "With such formidable combat power, the human will certainly not stay confined in the Primordial Universe. Once he reaches the Cosmic Sea, our strength will be more assured."

Even though in the Cosmic Sea the True God and the Lord of the Universe are battling, the Supreme Law still imposes a certain suppression on the True God; the Divine Body is suppressed by about ten thousand times, but only the Divine Body's strength is suppressed, not the combat power of secret arts, nor the potency of Ultimate Treasures.

"Then it's settled; we'll hand the Peak Treasures over to the Hongmeng Alliance humans," Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha said reluctantly; it was her first time looking so haggard, and it was against a human.

"They're just six Peak Treasures. Hand them over, so what?" Zhenjiao said, "There's still plenty of time, right?"

"So should the strong ones of my Demon Race Alliance also withdraw first?" Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha said reluctantly.

"Hmm, withdraw. After you give the six Peak Treasures to the humans, you may re‑enter," Zhenjiao said bluntly.

"I'm afraid some factions within the Alliance won't obey," Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha.

"Let them be; as the saying goes, good words can't persuade damned ghosts," Zhenjiao said. "By the way, this time let the Alliance provide Ultimate Treasures or materials worth five Peak Treasures. We consider the Alliance; we can't have the Demon Race bear all the cost. They enjoy the benefits of the Alliance's strength, so they must pay a corresponding price."

Zhenjiao's words aligned perfectly with Dream Demon Ancestor Mengcha's wishes.

……

Primordial Star No. 03921.

A passage‑blocking force composed of over a hundred Universe Venerables from the Demon Race Alliance stood in strict formation, watching every direction of the spatial vortex.

To prevent strong members of the Alien Tribe from entering this spatial passage from any direction.

Leading this group was a Heavenly Fin Venerable with snow‑white fur all over, hunched over, and a huge blood‑red vertical eye on the face.

This Heavenly Fin Venerable was a top‑tier Universe Overlord.

"Dream Demon Ancestor's command: all Demon Race Alliance strong ones withdraw from the Primordial Star immediately," the Heavenly Fin Venerable transmitted, then promptly led the Demon Ancestors Alliance strong ones behind him to swiftly fly toward the exiting spatial vortex.

In the distance, Luo Feng saw the marching Demon Race contingent and wondered, "What on earth is the Demon Race Alliance up to?"

……

Primordial Star No. 022684.

The Mechanical Race was responsible for sealing the spatial vortex entrance.

A Mechanical Race Universe Venerable a hundred kilometers tall transmitted, "Father God's command: all Mechanical Race Alliance strong ones temporarily leave the Primordial Star."

Immediately, every Mechanical Race Universe Venerable on the Primordial Star obeyed and prepared to depart.

But those Alien Tribe strong ones within the Alliance hesitated briefly, and most of them also left together.

……

On nearly five hundred Primordial Stars, similar events unfolded; essentially all strong ones of the Demon Race Alliance, Insect Race Alliance, and Mechanical Race Alliance withdrew at once.

On many other Primordial Stars, some lone top‑tier Universe Overlords and some small squads of Universe Venerables were indifferent.

"Leaving, we've just opened less than a epoch and we're leaving; I haven't even obtained a single Ultimate Treasure. After leaving, how do I return the High-level Treasure I borrowed?"

"The Alliance says they'll come back; it's only a temporary departure."

"A temporary departure—who would believe that?"

"Isn't it just that the Human Race produced a top‑tier Lord of the Universe? What's the big deal? I'm not of the Demon Race; my clan is merely an ordinary clan within the Demon Race Alliance. If I don't speak up, who will notice me?"

These opportunists are basically members of the Three‑Race Alliance; many are pillars of their own clans, hoping that with the opening of the Primordial Stars they can obtain more Ultimate Treasures for their clans and promote better development.

Even though they know the Creator Lord's might, a sliver of hope remains in their hearts; they don't think the Creator Lord will expend effort on these ordinary characters.

……

hao Yuanshi Xing.

Eighteen Universe Lords sent by the Hongmeng Alliance to assist have all returned; they are stationed within the Primordial Universe, and each has a strategic post that cannot be abandoned for long.

Only Xiao Yu's Human True Body still stands on this planet; the entire Primordial Star now has only Xiao Yu alone.

Xiao Yu took out the World Ring and released the three Venerables—Dry Witch, Nine Sword, and Xiguang—from within.

"Thank you, Palace Lord, for the rescue," the Dry Witch Venerable said after emerging; his divine power spread outward, found no abnormalities, and he immediately bowed respectfully.

"Thank you, Palace Lord, for the rescue," the Nine Sword Venerable and Xiguang Venerable also bowed respectfully.

Xiao Yu waved his hand, took a palace‑type Ultimate Treasure from the World Ring, and said, "Dry Witch, Nine Sword, and Xiguang, this is the palace‑type Ultimate Treasure you saw before; take it."

"Palace Lord!" the Dry Witch Venerable transmitted urgently.

"Alright, this time I consider it a blessing in disguise, because your harvest is impressive; this palace‑type Ultimate Treasure shall be my reward to you," Xiao Yu smiled, "Also, Nine Sword and Xiguang, if either of you lacks a destination in the future, you may come to me."

"The Creator Lord taking notice of me is a fortune for my Nine Sword," the Nine Sword Venerable bowed immediately, gladly accepting Xiao Yu's invitation.

Xiguang Venerable was stunned; he never imagined that his modest High-level Honored One status could attract a powerful Universe Lord. Only after the Dry Witch Venerable's transmitted reminder did he react, bowing respectfully, "Creator Lord, from today I, Xiguang, am your loyal servant, Palace Lord."

Throughout the Hongmeng Alliance, countless Universe Venerables wish to join the Creator Lord's sect but have no opening. Being recruited is certainly a cause for celebration for Nine Sword.

If possible, he would all want to become Xiao Yu's disciple, yet he knows that a Universe Lord as mighty as Xiao Yu would be exceedingly strict in taking disciples.

"Alright, don't belittle yourselves. You come to me to serve, and I won't shortchange you; your treatment will be the same as Dry Witch's," Xiao Yu said casually.

It is normal for a Universe Lord to have extremely loyal subordinates.

"We pay respects, Palace Lord," the Nine Sword Venerable and Xiguang Venerable solemnly bowed again.

"For now, the entire Primordial Star has only the three of you; continue the treasure hunt," Xiao Yu said.

"Yes, Palace Lord," the three nodded.

Xiao Yu opened a domain to control time and space, instantly appearing before a spatial vortex, then plunged violently into the vortex.

"Palace Lord, you truly are powerful!" Nine Sword Venerable exclaimed.

"The Universe Lords of the former Demon Race, Mechanical Race, and Insect Race Alliances are all gone," Xiguang Venerable said.

"They were probably all killed by you, Palace Lord!" Dry Witch Venerable, fascinated by the Creator Lord's might, said.
