Chapter 1689 You are Lying
Chapter 1689: You are Lying Chapter 1689: You are Lying Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation He spat out a mouthful of blood. They had been attacked! The attacker was Braydon Neal!
In an instant, Braydon was already back in his room. With a single palm strike, he had inflicted 50% damage to the eternal realm being of the Stargazing Hotel! The eternal was instantly terrified! He hadn’t even reached the eternal soul level yet. If the eternal body was destroyed… he faced a huge risk of dying.
“Mind your own business!” Braydon said as he returned to his room.
In his shock, the eternal immediately realized that someone extraordinary had moved into the Stargazing Hotel. It was not someone he could provoke!
Meanwhile, the little fool appeared in the room, holding a dead pig.
Outside, chaos erupted! Everyone was stunned! In the capital of the Milky Way Empire, the son of the empire’s leader had been kidnapped in broad daylight. It was a clear affront to the law!
This incident quickly escalated to the upper echelons of the empire. Even the ruler was alarmed! From initial rage to final shock, the leader of the empire knew well that he was just the local ruler of the Milky Way Empire, not the emperor of the entire universe.
There were many powerful figures in the universe. Perhaps a major player had passed through the Milky Way Empire. A solemn voice resonated from a grand hall in the Milky Way Empire.
“Seven, go and investigate personally.
Find out the background of the person who attacked.
If he is a nirvana being, back off!” “Yes, sir!” A black shadow departed.
He knew what backing off meant. The Third Prince could be sacrificed if necessary, but offending a nirvana realm being was out of the question.
In the entire Milky Way Empire, there was only one path-returning cultivator: the grandfather of the empire’s ruler. He was currently living in seclusion in the inner city. How could the Milky Way Empire, with just one path-returning cultivator, afford to offend a nirvana realm cultivator? If not handled properly, their imperial family could be in danger of being wiped out.
The Milky Way Empire itself wouldn’t be destroyed, as the race had strict orders against wanton massacres. No expert was allowed to slaughter entire countries. The Milky Way Empire, a subordinate force of the Northern Stellar Realm, was a legitimate empire with over a trillion inhabitants. If experts were allowed to kill them indiscriminately in a single day, the race would definitely hold the perpetrators accountable and ensure such atrocities didn’t happen.
Allowing such behavior would lead to chaos, with experts running amok and potentially causing the entire race to fall apart within a hundred years. The Milky Way Empire took this matter very seriously. Several eternals arrived silently at the Stargazing Hotel, almost as if path-returning realm cultivators were secretly watching the place.
Meanwhile, Braydon and his brother seemed completely relaxed.
“Who are you?” Grady Schuster asked angrily.
“Did my brother send you?
Do you realize that if you kidnap a member of the imperial family in public and punish them for their crimes, it means death for all your relatives?” “I asked you to come here because I want to ask you something!” Braydon said calmly.
“Who is the strongest in the Milky Way Empire?” “My father is an existence in the ninth level of the eternal realm!” Grady responded with pride, speaking highly of his father.
Braydon shook his head.
“You’re lying.
I sensed the presence of a path-returning realm cultivator!” “You—!” Grady was shocked and furious.
He stared at Braydon in disbelief.
A life and death realm cultivator sensing the presence of a path-returning realm cultivator was almost unbelievable!
Grady was stunned into silence for a moment before admitting, “My great-grandfather was a path-returning cultivator.” He hoped to see fear in Braydon’s eyes, but was disappointed. To Braydon, a path-returning realm existence seemed almost insignificant, as if it were no more than a minor detail.
After gauging the overall strength of the Milky Way Empire, Braydon shook his head slightly. No wonder they hadn’t sent reinforcements when they were losing in the space battlefield. The Milky Way Empire was not strong to begin with. Even if they sent their ancestor, it wouldn’t change the outcome of the battle—at best, it would just be cannon fodder.
“With the power of the Northern Army,” Braydon said softly, “I could sweep through the Milky Way Galaxy in ten days!” “Brother, are you planning to send troops?” Luke’s eyes lit up. The prospect of gaining wealth was always enticing.
Braydon glanced at him.
“Comparing the strength of the Milky Way Empire to the overall strength of the Soul-Hunting Galaxy, the difference shouldn’t be too significant.
Otherwise, the Milky Way Empire would have been swallowed by the demon race long ago!” Even though Braydon was in the Milky Way Empire, he remained focused on his Northern Army. The conscription order from Braydon had never ceased. Even if he was no longer with the Northern Army, recruitment continued.
Braydon looked at Grady with a dwindling interest in the Milky Way Empire. This empire posed no threat to the Northern Army, let alone his home planet.
“How much do you know about the Prodigy Tournament?” Braydon asked next.
“Are you here to participate in the competition?” Grady asked.
Grady, being astute, went straight to the point.
Bang!
Luke punched him into the wall and said firmly, “My brother asked you a question.
You’re only required to answer, not to ask questions!” Grady was furious. As the Third Prince of the Milky Way Empire, he had never been treated like this. But under the circumstances, he had no choice but to comply.
“Yes,” he said with a lowered head, “The Galaxy Competition ended last year.
My older brother and a group of geniuses have already gone to the Northern Stellar Realm!” “The Stellar Realm Competition has started?” Braydon pondered.
Grady shook his head.
“Not yet.
The preparation time for the Stellar Realm Competition is very lengthy.
It takes a long time for the major galaxies to select their most outstanding geniuses.” The Northern Stellar Realm had 36,000 galaxies, with numerous life planets between them. Even if the competitions were held simultaneously, it would take more than three to five months to complete.
However, countries that finished the Galaxy Competition would send their top geniuses to the Northern Stellar Realm in advance to acclimate and receive a warm welcome.
It was well-known that if a galaxy sent more geniuses or achieved a top 1,000 ranking, the Northern Stellar Realm would reward them handsomely. This was a major incentive for various galaxies to actively participate.
Moreover, having a peak expert from their galaxy enter the core power center of the race would bring significant benefits to their entire galaxy, compelling the Northern Stellar Realm to show respect.
“How strong are the participants of the Stellar Realm Competition?” Braydon asked.
“Very strong!” Grady replied with some reverence.
“There are even eternal-level participants.” “Are there path-returning realm participants?” Braydon inquired.
Braydon asked again.
Grady hesitated for a moment before finally answering, “Yes, there might be some path-returning realm cultivators, but I’m not sure if there are any in the Northern Stellar Realm.
However, there are definitely some in other stellar realms.
In the last Prodigy Tournament, a spirit body appeared!” “Are you trying to scare me?” Luke fumed.
A spirit body appearing among the younger generation? It was laughable!
One had to understand that the nirvana realm was a significant barrier.
If someone had reached the spirit body stage, it was incredibly intimidating!
Grady, however, remained serious.
“The human race has a long history of nurturing young talents.
The Prodigy Tournament we hold is on a different scale from those of the outsiders.
It would be surprising if there weren’t any prodigies among us!”
