Chapter 994: Chapter 994

"Lord Tian Wu, how could you let Jia Yan go so easily? You must know, this guy has greatly humiliated us, the ten strongest," Xing Wu remarked, his stature already monstrous at over one hundred and twenty meters, dominating all the monsters present.

"Do you think I didn’t want to keep him? Do you really think that the Jia Yan who fought with you was displaying his true strength?" Lord Tian Wu watched as the departing, magnificently standing spaceship, commanded by Jia Yan, left, his eyes filled with profound shock.

Before he had come here, he too had wanted to take action; with his insight, how could he not see that Jia Yan was an existence with a deep connection to the ’Sacred Powerhouse’? Thus, initially, he only wanted to teach him a lesson and then exile him.

But, unexpectedly, when he actually stood before Jia Yan, he wasn’t just shocked by that surging Life Force, but also by the underlying Strength Aura continuously welling up within his body!

Being of the Water Droplet Clan, and having reached the Galactic Level Peak, he could almost claim invincibility, save against Stellar-level Strong Ones. But in the moments observing Jia Yan, he foresaw his possible defeat! It’s important to know, one of the Water Droplet Clan’s most vital talents is to observe the Strength Aura of an enemy.

And what he saw in Jia Yan, that surging Life Force, indicated an astonishing youthfulness, while his towering, concealed power suggested that the Jia Yan who fought with the other strong ones was not yet at his strongest state – which could mean he was still hiding his strength or that his body harbored extremely powerful forces yet unleased. This could be why even he, Lord Tian Wu, didn’t see much chance of winning, leading to the episode just witnessed.

"Alright, you don’t need to talk about it anymore. Let’s just consider Jia Yan’s matter an anomaly in this starry sky," Lord Tian Wu sighed lightly as he looked at Jia Yan who, showing no signs of returning, made him realize that this little Desolate Star System couldn’t contain such a terrifyingly young powerhouse. He envied Jia Yan’s age; if indeed born a ’Sacred Powerhouse’, his future would be boundless, possibly even reaching a supremely strong status among the Stellar-level Strong Ones!

"Damn it, just when everything was fine, out pops a Jia Yan, completely ruining our image in this starry sky!" Pai Lan sighed gloomily, watching the gathering of some news spacecraft.

Now, none of them mentioned that great being, or talked about Jia Yan possessing a method of Promotion. Considering the extent of Jia Yan’s strength, they were simply unable to contend with him, even if he had such a plan, they couldn’t possibly seize it.

"It won’t do; I must retaliate somehow. It seems Jia Yan is heading to the Northern Star Domain. The strong ones there are numerous compared to our Desolate Star System, and the forces more fragmented. If I leak the news of Jia Yan’s whereabouts, perhaps many who are stuck at the Galactic Level Peak might find this piece of information interesting..."

Thinking about how Jia Yan destroyed his Chaos Stone Essence, Pai Lan somewhat reluctantly opened the communicator...

"Think, unimaginable! Our strongest in the galaxy, Lord Tian Wu himself, and yet Jia Yan could still leave unimpeded – this is simply incredible! Jia Yan...no, Lord Jia Yan, could it be that he has become so powerful that even Lord Tian Wu can’t be sure of defeating him?"

The hosts and commentators were dumbstruck, and among the guests, some who had previously interacted with Jia Yan were now shivering. Lord Jia Yan, during their previous fights, had he employed even a tenth, no, a fifth of his strength, would have been enough to obliterate them utterly.

Fortunately for these strong ones, they hadn’t been overly disrespectful toward Jia Yan previously, only some who had mocked him were now truly panic-stricken, thoroughly worried about this being for whom even Lord Tian Wu had to apologize to resolve matters.

Fortunately, Jia Yan’s spaceship seemed to fly directly towards the outer boundaries of the galaxy and, after reaching a certain distance, it darted into space, performing a space jump, vanishing from the media’s cameras. It seemed he had no intention of returning to the center of the galaxy.

"Alright, let’s leave matters of the Desolate Star System behind. I have no significant enemies here; just a few who have suffered at my hands. Though I’d love to see the expressions of those stars if they saw me, it’s meaningless. Let’s just drop it," Jia Yan thought while cleaning mutated debris off the spaceship floor, pondering the gains and losses in the Desolate Star System.

He knew, after the battle with the few strong ones, even if the others hadn’t shown themselves, his status as one of the top powerhouses in the Desolate Star System was now confirmed. Currently, almost no power dared confront him.

If he had thoughts of settling down, his status here would be comparable to that of the ten strongest, perhaps even more esteemed, for his power was truly as Lord Tian Wu last mentioned, continuing to grow even now.

"But I can’t stay here; this starry sky is destined to be just a memory in my life," Jia Yan shook his head, his gaze no longer directed backward but instead turned forward...

"Lord Tian Wu truly lives up to being the Strongest. Perhaps in the end, realizing that my newly promoted body was still growing stronger, if he truly fought with me, relying on the full eruption of my strength along with the absolute defensive power of Bluish Defense, they might have still only served as sharpening stones for quickly enhancing my power! It must be said, the saying ’old sly fox’ really suits him."
