Everything that had just happened had unfolded far too quickly.
In order to win Lu Yuan over, the Eternals had chosen to show goodwill and resolve the enmity between him and the Spirit Clan. Ordinarily, anyone would have chosen to accept. After all, the one acting as interdiary was the Eternals.
All beings from the Outer Cosmos knew how mysterious and powerful that race was. Across the entire cosmos, there were almost no existences willing to provoke them. Under such circumstances, it should have seed that there was only one possible choice, and that was to accept.
Yet no one had expected that Lu Yuan would refuse. And his refusal had been extrely direct.
That response imdiately enraged the mbers of the Eternals, and just like that, the two sides had co to blows. What shocked everyone even more was that Lu Yuan clearly had no intention of holding back at all.
The instant he made a move, he truly made a move.
These were the Eternals in the picture, the mysterious and powerful Eternals.
Even the Celestials, after witnessing the scene, could not help but be stunned.
But very quickly, once they gathered themselves, excitent surged within them. This ant that Lu Yuan had gained yet another great enemy, and not just any enemy, but one ranked among the top ten existences in the entire cosmos.
The trouble he would have to deal with in the future would surely be terrifying.
No, rather, there was no need to wait until the future. It seed likely that the fight would break out right now.
Thus, schadenfreude suffused the eyes of Lei Xiao and the others imdiately. They seed to be looking forward to it imnsely. The sa was true of the Nether Bull Clan, the Three-Headed Ghost Race, the Yin Sparrow Race, and the rest.
At this mont, all of them were smiling. They had long hated Lu Yuan to the bone. It was only because they feared his strength that they no longer dared provoke him recklessly. After all, they had already suffered greatly at his hands before.
And now, Lu Yuan had offended the Eternals and directly co into conflict with them.
These people knew very well that the Eternals had always been overbearing, and were trendously powerful to begin with. If the two sides fought, then regardless of who won and who lost, it would be no bad thing for them.
At this mont, every one of them was so engrossed in watching the show, wanting to see how things would develop.
anwhile, after Lu Yuan's slap landed, the very air seed to freeze.
Yu Qing's eyes widened. She was utterly incredulous. But the mont she felt the burning pain on her cheek, boundless rage imdiately surfaced in her eyes. She tried to break free, but could not. All she could do was curse aloud.
"Lu Yuan, you are courting death! You actually dared lay hands on . I will make sure you die without a burial place. I will make sure you are completely annihilated. I will make you, and everyone around you, pay the price!"
From the mont of her birth until now, she had never once suffered such humiliation. Especially because that slap had landed in front of so many people.
At this mont, Yu Qing had beco half-crazed. And yet, under the suppression of Lu Yuan's vital qi, there was still nothing she could do.
"Lu Yuan, you went too far just now."
At this point, Yu Heng, the strongest among them, finally spoke. His gaze gradually sharpened as he looked directly at Lu Yuan, and his voice had grown colder than before.
"Too far?" Lu Yuan only smiled before saying, "Had I not acted, I would have been the one struck and injured. She quite clearly bore killing intent toward . Yet from beginning to end, I have done nothing excessive. I rely had no wish to agree to your conditions. But she kept pressing step by step. So tell . Who exactly is the one going too far?"
Lu Yuan had never taken the initiative to seek trouble with others. But by the sa token, he had never feared anyone either.
Even if they ca from the Eternals, he still wanted no dealings with such people.
He understood very well that once the existence of the Great Luo Sword Embryo was exposed in the future, there was a high chance that he and them would end up standing against one another. And now, since the Eternals had provoked him first, he naturally had no reason to be polite.
However, after hearing this, Yu Heng offered no explanation at all. He only said calmly, "Release her now. If you do, certain matters can be left in the past. But if you beco a true enemy of the Eternals, I'm afraid that is a price you cannot bear."
The sa lofty attitude remained, as though there was no room whatsoever for negotiation. He was not discussing anything. He was issuing a command, a command laced with a threat.
At this mont, Jiang Haokong, who had been watching from the side all this ti, finally could not hold back any longer.
"They say the Eternals run rampant through the universe with absolute arrogance. Seeing it today, the rumors truly were not false. And if we refuse to release her, what exactly can you do? At worst, it will just be a battle."
He himself was proud by nature, and his temper was far from mild. So after hearing those threatening words, he naturally could no longer endure it.
He continued, "If you want a fight, then we can accompany you to the end."
As the Holy Son of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Haokong possessed absolute confidence even in the face of the Eternals.
However, when the Outer Cosmos beings at the side saw this scene, they could not help exchanging glances. They had no idea where this person had co from, to actually dare challenge the Eternals so brazenly.
But whatever the case, Lei Xiao and the Celestials all believed the sa thing—this battle could no longer be avoided.
The mythical secret realm of Yellow Mountain was about to open soon. If that happened, they might be able to sit back and reap the benefits without lifting a finger. And so they were looking forward to it more and more.
"No need to waste words with them any longer. Just fight."
Another man, nad Yu Hong, could no longer tolerate it. He imdiately took a step forward. The divine halo behind his head erupted with streak after streak of sharp radiance.
Seeing this, Jiang Haokong's gaze sharpened, and he prepared to make a move.
But Lu Yuan stopped him and said softly, "Let handle them alone."
Jiang Haokong had wanted to say more. But very quickly, he realized that there were many other beings watching all around them. If both of them made a move, then what would happen to Zhu Qingyu and the others? So he nodded and stepped back.
"You alone? Such arrogance!"
Yu Hong felt he was being looked down upon, and the aura around him beca more and more violent. In but an instant, the light emanating from his body crushed the surrounding boulders and trees into pieces.
But Lu Yuan did not hesitate either. Golden vital qi surged through him. At the sa ti, he raised one hand and ford a fist. Then he struck out.
Boom!
That violent golden vital qi directly transford into an ocean. As his fist shot out, it swept forth like a storm. Though it was only a very simple blow, the difference between the present Lu Yuan and his previous self was enormous in both strength and realm.
Under that punch, even the surrounding space began to hum in resonance. The mountains below trembled.
Opposite him, Yu Hong of the Eternals also felt an imnsely powerful force at once, and his expression changed imdiately. Even after circulating all the power within his body, he still could not help retreating, his face turning faintly pale.
At this very mont, Lu Yuan was suppressing Yu Qing with one hand while battling Yu Hong with the other.
His entire bearing remained calm and unhurried. There was not the slightest sign of strain.
Such a display caused the expressions of all those Outer Cosmos beings watching from afar to change dramatically. They all realized that this human, Lu Yuan, was likely even stronger than they had imagined.
"Since you are this unrestrained, then do not bla for ceasing to hold back." At last, even Yu Heng, the strongest of the three, could no longer endure it. His patience had already been exhausted completely.
Without any extra motion, he rely raised his hand. At once, an imnsely oppressive force appeared in the void above, while the divine halo behind his head blazed brilliantly.
And at that sa mont, Lu Yuan also sensed a hint of danger.
This man is very strong!
