Ding Haotian let out a cold snort.
"Refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit? Sooner or later I’ll teach you a lesson."
His conflict with Executive Jiang had been going on for more than just a day or two. That officer was always giving him trouble, putting him on the spot and repeatedly making him lose face.
If it were usually sowhere without people around, he could let it slide. But now he dared to talk like that in front of a beauty. He really didn’t put the Ding Family in his eyes.
Off to the side, Ye Wenjun watched the screen the whole ti without saying a word.
Ding Haotian said, "I almost forgot, humans really love to compare themselves to others. This Earthling being able to reach the 300th step proves he’s quite capable, so on Earth he must also be a pretty big shot, right?"
"If you say so, then sure." Ye Wenjun had no intention of denying it, and it was the truth anyway. Fang Yu’s current status in the Huaxia World was indeed respected and feared. He was also the hero in the hearts of all Huaxia Cultivators.
After hearing this, Ding Haotian said, "That’s what I said, humans are very prone to currying favor with the powerful. I forgot to properly introduce myself just now."
"My na is Ding Haotian. My grandfather, Ding Zhen, is the Grand Marshal of the Red County Star Domain, and my father is the Great General of the Red County Star Domain. In your Earth terms, our Ding Family is a military clan. As for , I’m the most talented genius of the younger generation."
"In the future I’ll beco the youngest Great General and Grand Marshal, inheriting my father’s position. So long as you and I are joined, you’ll enjoy endless glory and wealth. In the Red County Star Domain, everyone will give you three points of courtesy, and your status will be the sa as mine."
"Well? Isn’t that much better than this Earthling?"
As Ding Haotian introduced all this, every word carried pride and a sense of superiority.
Yet when his gaze fell on Ye Wenjun’s face, he found that Ye Wenjun was still very indifferent.
As if none of this had anything to do with her.
"Are you even listening to ?"
"I heard you. So what?"
"I’m asking you, don’t you yearn for this kind of power and status?"
Ye Wenjun hadn’t intended to bother with him at all; now that he spoke, she simply stayed silent.
The more she acted like this, the angrier Ding Haotian beca.
He abruptly swung his leg and with a bang, a piece of Marble in front of him exploded into fragnts.
This kind of attack looked very direct and spectacular.
As if he were using his body like a modern weapon.
Seeing this, Ye Wenjun was slightly surprised.
"My patience has limits. I’ll give you three days to think it over. If I don’t get the answer I want, then even the king of heaven himself won’t be able to save you."
After speaking, he looked again at Fang Yu on the screen.
That Earthling he completely disdained had already reached the 350th step. Seeing this scene, Ding Haotian was dumbfounded.
How was this possible?
An Earthling who wasn’t even of the Primary Divine Race had actually reached the 350th step. It was simply unimaginable.
If this kept up, this human might very well pass into the area where only Middle Class Divine Race could move and step into the range of the Advanced Divine Race.
After the 600th step, those were stairs only the Advanced Divine Race could tread.
Yet at this mont Fang Yu had already reached the 351st step.
This was already a terrifying number.
Fang Yu had no idea that his every move was being monitored by high-tech civilization.
Although he could sense Energy at any ti, and could sense other Cultivators or even creatures approaching, it was very hard to perceive these scientific civilizations.
When Fang Yu ca to the 360th step.
He noticed that the resistance had grown stronger again.
"Ti to use the Divine Artifact."
From beginning to now, Fang Yu had yet to use the Divine Artifact inside his body.
And the Divine Dragon as well—those were his trump cards and killer moves.
But just as he was about to summon the Nine Layer Tower Divine Artifact...
He suddenly felt as if a pair of eyes was staring at him from so corner behind him.
This feeling was very bad.
Soone?
Soone was peeping!
Fang Yu instantly suppressed the Primordial Qi he was about to mobilize, hiding it in the most concealed state within his body.
There really was soone watching at the Heavenly Stepping Ladder.
Fang Yu beca even more cautious.
At the sa ti, he stopped advancing.
Because Fang Yu had discovered a rule. If he hadn’t discovered this pattern, it would have been hard for him to even pass the 300th step. That would easily make the other side overestimate his strength, which was bad for hiding himself and very dangerous.
"Co out."
Fang Yu tried to communicate with the person hiding behind the scenes.
Unfortunately, everything around remained calm; no one responded to him at all.
"I know the Heavenly Ladder should be a place you use for training and testing. My strength can only reach the 360th step, so I don’t plan to keep going."
He deliberately let his voice spread out, just so that person would hear it.
Even though it was still very quiet around him, with no response at all.
"Also, I want to speak with your person in charge. If possible, please introduce ."
After saying this, Fang Yu sat down cross-legged.
If he could enter the Red County Star Domain in a peaceful manner, that would be ideal.
If it really couldn’t be helped, Fang Yu could only force his way through the Heavenly Ladder.
Moreover, Fang Yu could feel that these people didn’t seem very willing to let him go too far. This Heavenly Stepping Ladder required extrely powerful Energy to maintain.
The deeper you went, the more it wore down the Heavenly Ladder.
So Fang Yu had two plans in mind to break the Heavenly Ladder. The first was to continuously drain the Heavenly Ladder’s Energy. The second was to use brute force to tear open space.
After all, this Heavenly Ladder didn’t lead to an end. Both thods were feasible plans. The reason he hadn’t used them was because they would both put him in a disadvantaged position.
Fang Yu sat on the steps waiting for a response.
...
...
anwhile, Fang Yu’s performance had already been reported by Executive Jiang to the General in charge of this Star Domain.
At the sa ti, the General imdiately extended his Divine Sense to monitor Fang Yu’s actions.
"I didn’t expect this Earthling to be able to sense my spirit."
"General Lü, I’ve said all along, this Earthling is not simple. I think we’d better bring him back as soon as possible. Young Master Ding seems extrely dissatisfied."
When Executive Jiang ca, he had already ntioned what was going on with Ding Haotian.
"What does he have to be dissatisfied about? If not for relying on his dad and his grandpa, he’d be a piece of trash. Ignore him. Pass on my order: bring this Earthling and that Earth woman here to , all of them."
"Yes."
But just then...
The image within the Heavenly Ladder suddenly changed.
A strange figure shot out from between heaven and earth, heading straight for Fang Yu with annihilating intent.
"Damn, Young Master Ding has made his move!"
Seeing this, General Lü let out a cold snort.
"Outrageous. Completely lawless. Imdiately bring two Middle Class Divine Race here and drag them all over—Ding Haotian included."
"Yes."
...
As Fang Yu sat cross-legged, he originally thought this suddenly appearing figure was soone agreeing to his request.
But unexpectedly, from another direction there appeared a sinister aura that, the instant it struck, was aid at killing him.
This scene was also transmitted to where Ye Wenjun was.
"No!" Ye Wenjun’s eyes widened.
Ye Wenjun had not expected Ding Haotian to be able to reach the Heavenly Ladder in just a few breaths, and to easily arrive at the 360th step.
This was the Divine Race. A Middle Class Divine Race.
Fang Yu was in danger.
