Chapter 730: We Can Be Killed But Not Humiliated
"I see," Ye Guan said solemnly. "Does that mean that there are no more Chosen Ones after me?"
Qin Guan nodded slightly and said, "Yeah." NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
"All right," said Ye Guan with a smile. He really didn't care that much about being the Chosen One.
"I still have one more thing to do before leaving," Qin Guan said."
"What is it?"
Qin Guan smiled. "The Temple of the Gods."
Ye Guan was stunned. He had been so preoccupied with fighting the God Clan and the Primordial Spirit Clan that he had forgotten about the Temple of the Gods.
Qin Guan said, "We just received news that the Temple of the Gods is unwilling to submit, so we need to go there ourselves."
"Okay."
It was time to settle matters with the Temple of the Gods.
Qin Guan stood up and left with Ye Guan.
The destruction of the God Clan and the Primordial Spirit Clan naturally couldn't be hidden from the Temple of the Gods.
The Temple of the Gods was bustling with activity; they were in the middle of discussing how they could resist the Guanxuan Academy.
The Temple Master of the Temple of the Gods led the discussion. She was sitting on her divine throne, and she swept her gaze coldly across the assembled gods. "We will fight them to the end."
A fight to the end!
The gods were silent.
The Guanxuan Academy had destroyed the God Clan, the Ancient Wilderness, and finally, the Primordial Spirit Clan.
How could they fight them?
The Temple of the Gods couldn't possibly defeat the Guanxuan Academy unless the First God magically appeared in their midst.
Seeing the gods' silence, the Divine Lord added, "We can be killed but not humiliated. We can't truly surrender, can we?"
Surrender?
The gods exchanged glances, unwilling to surrender. Joining the Guanxuan Academy and adhering to its laws was more unbearable than death for them.
An elder stepped forward, and he sounded solemn as he said, "We have little chance of winning if we fight, but we are not willing to surrender, so there's only one path left for us. We disband and seek our own fates."
With that, he turned around and left.
The gods revealed uneasy looks at the sight. Fleeing was indeed an option; the Guanxuan Academy couldn't possibly hunt them all down if they chose to escape and hide well.
However, it meant abandoning everything that they had built in the Realm of the Gods, which was a bitter pill to swallow.
The Divine Lord chuckled and said, "We can't win in a fight, and we don't want to surrender. What do you people want to do, then?"
The gods exchanged glances and left one by one.
Soon, the Divine Lord was all alone inside the hall.
The Divine Lord closed her eyes slowly. The Temple of the Gods that her master had established was no more.
Swoosh!
Just then, the Divine Lord saw two figures walking toward her in the distance.
The figures belonged to none other than Qin Guan and Ye Guan.
Upon entering the hall and seeing the Divine Lord, Ye Guan was taken aback. "You..."
The Divine Lord opened her eyes and smiled. "Master."
"I will never be disappointed in you. Remember, do what you want to do. If you don't want to handle these affairs, I'll support you regardless. Whatever you choose, I'll support you."
Ye Guan bowed his head slightly, and his eyes suddenly became a bit blurry.
Qin Guan muttered, "I'll go ahead and scout the path for you. Once I'm done, I'll return to your side..."
"Okay."
"All right, I'm off," Qin Guan said, smiling before disappearing into thin air.
Ye Guan stood silently for a long while before saying, "I've been away for too long. It's time to go back and have a look."
An You hurriedly asked, "Young Master, do you need me to make arrangements?"
Ye Guan smiled. "No need."
An You bowed slightly and stepped aside.
Ye Guan looked at Little Ai beside him, "Did Mother leave any instructions?"
Little Ai nodded. "Our Immortal Treasures Pavilion now has millions of branches across the universe. The personnel changes and appointments for these branches require your attention, so you'll be very busy soon."
Ye Guan hesitated, "Do I have to handle all those matters personally?"
Little Ai nodded slightly. "Yes."
Ye Guan smiled wryly. He'd become really busy indeed.
Little Ai added, "The Mistress' idea means that you don't have to manage the day-to-day affairs of Immortal Treasures Pavilion, but you must be aware of everything to prevent any internal strife."
Ye Guan thought for a moment and nodded. "That makes sense."
He truly had to be aware of everything to spot problems before they exploded into major headaches.
"We have over a hundred departments, the most important being the Martial Court, Hidden Pavilion, and the Technology Pavilion. I'm in charge of the Technology Pavilion, An You is in charge of the Hidden Pavilion, and the Martial Court is temporarily managed by Miss An, but she will be leaving soon, so you will need to find someone else to take over her job. Additionally, the Immortal Treasures Pavilion has its own armed force called the Xiandao Guard. It was personally created by the Mistress and is currently being trained by Miss An..." Little An said.
Ye Guan suddenly asked, “Does Little Jia know about all this?”
Little Ai nodded. “She knows. The Pavilion Master has already revealed everything to Pavilion Master Jia before she decided to come here with you...”
“It seems Mother knows that I don't have that much time to manage these things,” Ye Guan said and smiled at Little Ai, adding, "Go on."
Little Ai nodded and told Ye Guan everything he had to know about the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.
Ye Guan’s expression became more and more serious as he learned more about the terrifying scale of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.
At first, he thought that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion was just a family business, but it turned out that he had greatly underestimated it.
The Immortal Treasures Pavilion’s business reach spanned the entire vast expanse, and it could be considered a comprehensive economy. Simply put, the Immortal Treasures Pavilion had the power to control prices across the universe. What did this mean? If the Immortal Treasures Pavilion wanted to do so, it could extract wealth from every living being in the universe. However, Qin Guan hadn't done anything like that, of course. The reason she created the Immortal Treasures Pavilion was to bring stability and improvement to the vast expanse instead of causing chaos everywhere.
Ye Guan finally understood why Qin Guan had told Little Ai to explain everything to him. He could delegate responsibilities to others, but he needed to understand the true power and potential of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.
Money was just a bunch of numbers to the members of the Yang Family; the true goal was to unify the vast expanse and establish a new order.
Ye Guan felt a hodgepodge of emotions. He realized that he wouldn't be able to establish an order even if he were invincible without his mother and the Yang Family’s support.
Power was not enough; one also needed a vast network of allies and supporters to establish a new order.
Ye Guan asked, “Is the academy currently managed by the Guanxuan Committee?”
Little Ai nodded. “The academy is temporarily managed by the Guanxuan Committee. Someone will tell you the specifics upon your return."
“The pressure suddenly feels overwhelming,” Ye Guan said, sighing lightly. Then, he shook his head with a smile and added, “But it’s not a bad thing. Anyway, Let's go back to the Guanxuan universe.”
It was time to visit Little Jia and his old friends.
He hopped onto the Qingxuan Sword and entered a spacetime rift. Just as he was imagining his reunion with his beloved ones, a terrifying and mysterious force abruptly manifested around him,
Before he could react, a hand dragged him out of the spacetime tunnel.
