POOF!

The blood of the Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Expert turned into a blood cloud before being devoured by Emu.

“!!!” “!!!” “!!!”

The rest of the Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Master’s weren’t even able to quantify what had happened when, all of a sudden, one of them had died!

Furthermore, the crowd in the Coliseum of Dacratas was even more shocked by this action of the mysterious old man.

–

“Who is that powerful master!? And how was he able to kill a Celestial Academy Overseer as easily as that!?”

“I heard that a few of you had gone to meet that mysterious old man in person. So tell us what exactly it is he wants!?”

“…” “…” “…”

The High-Ranking Kings and Emperor’s went silent upon hearing the questions being asked by the other Mahayana Realm Cultivators in the VIP stands.

However, in the end, one of them decided to speak up, as he said, “This old man He wants to rule over all of Asterion”

“…”

A hush fell over the VIP venue when they heard these words.

And it didn’t take long before they erupted with a plethora of questions:

“Are you saying that he wants to rule over this planet marked for death!? But why!?”

“Some of you said that he came from the Starry Expanse, so maybe he has a way to prevent the Void Devouring Worms from swallowing our planet!”

“How could someone possibly be from the Starry Expanse!? This old man is clearly just an old cott who has been in seclusion for a ridiculous number of years!”

There were differing opinions voiced by those in the crowd; however, they were swiftly silenced by the rich and refined voice of a certain blue-haired Milf:

“Can you busy bodies shut up for a second! You have no clue just how powerful that old man is! In fact, he could likely wipe out all of Asterion with a single swipe of his hands!”

“???” “???”

All of the Mahayana Realm rulers swiveled their heads in the direction of the commanding voice and saw the Queen Mother, Margarete AquaRing, glaring at them all with a sinuous gaze.

“…..”

They all went quiet as soon as they realized who it was.

After all, none of them wished to get on the bad side of that ancient witch

Tch!

Margarete clicked her tongue at their cowardly attitudes before she focused her attention on the wizened old man confronting thirty-nine Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Experts.

****

Meanwhile, in the skies, tens of thousands of meters off the ground, dozens of majestic auras were piling on top of one singular old man.

The old man in question wore quite an amused look on his face as he waited to see what exactly their reactions would be.

However, contrary to his expectations

“Please forgive us, senior!” They all exclaimed in unison, sweat raining down their faces.

Azmond dumbfoundedly stared at the scene of dozens of almighty figures bowing to him in mid-air.

It seems like everyone who has lived long enough values their lives enough that they aren’t willing to resist an overwhelming force

*Sigh* He sighed a little at this revelation before he said, “Then relinquish all your treasures and go back to what you were doing.”

The Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Ancestor’s and Overseers were a little confused over this demand.

But regardless of their confusion, they immediately did as they were told and transmitted all of their belongings into the mysterious old man’s storage ring.

Afterwards, one of the Half-Step Mahayana Realm Ancestors from the continent of Gaia’s Sanctum spoke up by saying, “About the Void Devouring Worms”

They were all secretly hoping that this extremely powerful figure was capable of taking care of the Void-Devouring Worms.

After all, in actuality, they were all relying on that hybrid Behemoth Abomination that was originally put in the works by the ‘Insane One’ and continued by the current generation of Monster Overseers.

Beyond that, no one truly had the confidence to resist the astral winds of the Starry Expanse for prolonged periods of time

Azmond observed the expectant gazes of all these once domineering figures.

They really had a quick change of heart, huh?

Nonetheless, in spite of his thoughts, he said, “I will deal with those bugs myself. Your only job is to continue doing what you were doing, and make sure to prepare to have all your territory annexed by my Heaven Exploding Faction.”

Following his words, his figure started to vanish from sight.

But not before he got out a few more sentences

“Oh, and make sure to stay away from the Kingdom of AquaRing, for it is under my protection. If I hear that any of you went against my will”

The wizened old man’s face darkened considerably before he said, “I might just kill all of you and be done with it.”

“!?” “!?” “!?”

The Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Experts were nearly frightened to death when they felt that extreme killing intent.

But they still mustered up the courage to turn their heads up and nod in unison.

“Good, then I’ll be on my way and will not be returning before the four-year mark unless one of you forces my hand.”

The threatening voice of the mysterious old man faded out as his figure completely disappeared from Asterion.

In fact, not a single one of the Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Experts could even ascertain the approximate location of the Heaven Exploding Faction Senior

Meanwhile, in the VIP stands of the Coliseum of Dacrats, a bunch of high-standing figures were able to exhale, as they had been on edge the entire time the Old Man was up there.

But after observing all the Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Ancestor’s and Overseers bow their heads in clear subservience, the more sagacious of the VIP spectators were able to guess what had happened

“The man from beyond the stars has successfully taken all of the world rulers under his heel” The Emperor of the Earth God Empire muttered with his sweaty palms gripping his seat.

After this information was revealed to the rest of the high-ranking members of society, everyone was thrown into disarray!
