Primordial Star Scripture - Chapter 1308
1308: Chapter 1226: Refusal!
1308: Chapter 1226: Refusal!
The Ultimate Star Lord descended, shaking all directions.
Upon hearing Star Lord Ning Luo’s telepathic explanation of the identities of Gu Tianyi and the elder in the green robe, especially knowing that the elder Xuan Yazi was an Ultimate Star Lord, Ye Chen was equally shocked beyond words.
Ultimate Star Lord.
The supreme existence among Star Lords.
Countless times more terrifying than the Glorious Star Lord and the Supreme Star Lord!
It can be said that an Ultimate Star Lord is the most elite existence across countless universes and even the Cosmic Sea!
Such an existence suddenly appearing here at the Ten Thousand Stars Tower, how could it not cause extreme astonishment?
“Wasn’t there a rumor that all the major Star Lords of the Cosmic Sea South Pole Region had left?
How could there be an Ultimate Star Lord here?” Ye Chen sent a telepathic inquiry to Star Lord Ning Luo.
Star Lord Ning Luo, with a solemn expression, sent back telepathically: “Indeed, many of our top Star Lords in the Southern Polar Region have almost all disappeared.
However, there are exceptions.”
“Those trying to break through from Glorious Star Lord to Supreme Star Lord, or from Supreme Star Lord to Ultimate Star Lord, many are in life-and-death seclusion at those critical junctures.
When those top Star Lords departed, these Star Lords in seclusion did not leave.”
“This senior Xuan Yazi is one such case.”
“Unexpectedly, he has successfully passed the life-and-death threshold so early, becoming an Ultimate Star Lord, and has appeared here!”
“Of course, apart from these absolute figures, Star Lords like me, a Glorious Star Lord, because of delays traveling to other regions, also did not go with those top Star Lords.
There are quite a few such Star Lords, though none as astonishing as Elder Xuan Yazi.”
After listening to Star Lord Ning Luo’s explanation, Ye Chen nodded slightly.
While Ye Chen and Star Lord Ning Luo were having a telepathic exchange.
In the Void Heaven.
The elder Xuan Yazi, dressed in a cyan robe, saw that after asking, Ye Chen did not respond, directly furrowed his brows, and looked at Ye Chen again, saying: “What, could it be that young friend Ye Chen doesn’t want to become my closed-door disciple?”
This sentence, carrying the divine might of an Ultimate Star Lord, instantly caused the surroundings to tremble with shock.
Everyone looked towards Ye Chen.
An Ultimate Star Lord!
No matter how extraordinarily talented Ye Chen was, no matter how much he had earned Black God Level rewards!
But after all, he has not yet grown fully, and in everyone’s eyes, he is absolutely no match for the prestige of an Ultimate Star Lord!
“To be accepted as a closed-door disciple by an Ultimate Star Lord, what kind of honor is this?
What is Ye Chen hesitating for?!”
“Could it be, does he really dare refuse Elder Xuan Yazi?!”
“If he hesitates any longer, once he angers Xuan Yazi, even if he is extraordinarily talented, it might incite a monumental disaster!”
Countless gazes fixed on Ye Chen, some with suspicion, some with ridicule, and others with concern.
“Big brother Ye Chen.”
Seeing countless eyes focused in attention, and seeing Xuan Yazi’s gaze growing more severe, Ye Chen still hadn’t spoken.
Standing beside Ye Chen, Chining Xiaoxiao couldn’t resist anymore and nudged Ye Chen’s arm.
It was only then that Ye Chen returned from his conversation with Star Lord Ning Luo to his senses.
Ye Chen naturally heard all of Xuan Yazi’s words.
However, what Ye Chen said next shocked everyone present!
“Elder Xuan Yazi, I’m sorry, but I don’t intend to become your closed-door disciple.”
Ye Chen actually truly refused Xuan Yazi’s offer to take him as a disciple!
Ye Chen’s words were simply unbelievable to countless people!
“What’s going on!”
“This young man, to refuse even the offer of an Ultimate Star Lord to accept him as a disciple?!
My god, this is an Ultimate Star Lord!”
“Never mind an Ultimate Star Lord, even if a Glorious Star Lord wanted to take me as a disciple, I would offer praises; I wouldn’t have the slightest thought of refusal.
Yet he refused…
This…
This is simply too incredible!”
Countless people looked at Ye Chen in disbelief.
Similarly, countless others were deeply worried for Ye Chen’s rejection of Xuan Yazi.
“Has Ye Chen gone mad?!”
“To refuse even an Ultimate Star Lord!
Even if his talent is unparalleled, he still shouldn’t anger an Ultimate Star Lord!”
“And to refuse so publicly, giving no face to the Ultimate Star Lord at all!”
“I heard that Elder Xuan Yazi has quite a bad temper.
He is a tremendous figure ranking fifth among the Antarctic Southern Region’s top ten powers, the catastrophic Chaotic Divine Sect.
Now, Ye Chen is in huge trouble!”
Within the crowd, Star Lord Ning Luo and Chining Xiaoxiao standing by Ye Chen’s side were similarly deeply worried for Ye Chen.
Star Lord Ning Luo and Chining Xiaoxiao came from the Cosmic Sea South Pole Region, and they fully understood the renown of Xuan Yazi.
No matter how miraculous Ye Chen was, they couldn’t believe Ye Chen’s outright refusal of Xuan Yazi would end in peace.
“If worst comes to worst, we can only ask that elder from Heavenly Origin Mountain to speak for Ye Chen, but that elder, too, doesn’t have the best temper…”
While Star Lord Ning Luo and Chining Xiaoxiao’s minds were racing with thoughts on how to respond.
Hearing Ye Chen’s refusal, Xuan Yazi was likewise taken aback.
Xuan Yazi could hardly believe that this young man in front of him dared refuse him, prompting him to involuntarily confirm again with Ye Chen: “Young friend Ye Chen, do you truly wish to refuse me?”
Ye Chen smiled and nodded at Xuan Yazi: “I can only thank you for your kind offer, elder.”
Ye Chen firmly refused again!
Perhaps others feared this Xuan Yazi.
But Ye Chen did not!
On one hand, Ye Chen already has a master.
Although Zi Ji Star Lord has never met him in person, the teachings of the Primordial Star Scripture bestowed upon him have been infinitely beneficial.
Moreover, Ye Chen has already met his senior sister.
With both a master and a senior sister, how could Ye Chen ever bow to this Xuan Yazi as a master again!
In Ye Chen’s eyes, though Xuan Yazi is an Ultimate Star Lord, he is definitely not as formidable as Zi Ji Star Lord!
His own master would certainly never allow him to take on this new Ultimate Star Lord as his master again!
On the other hand, Ye Chen is not without support in the Cosmic Sea South Pole Region.
Just now, the reward from the Star Spirit—the highest authority—has already been bestowed upon Ye Chen!
The Star Spirit had mentioned that Ye Chen can even exercise the highest authority of the Myriads Star Palace!
The Myriads Star Palace ranks as the third greatest supremacy in the Cosmic Sea South Pole Region, holding the supreme authority of the entire great power, while Xuan Yazi is merely an Ultimate Star Lord of the fifth-ranked Chaotic Divine Sect.
How could he compare to the supreme authority of the Star Spirit?
Even if a higher-ranked Ultimate Star Lord were to invite him, Ye Chen would still dare to refuse!
Do they dare to kill him in public in their rage?!
Even if they attempt to kill, even if they are Ultimate Star Lords, Ye Chen dares to assure that they cannot succeed!
Ye Chen’s renewed refusal, witnessed by countless onlookers, caused many to gasp in shock, and some even began whispering among themselves.
As for Xuan Yazi, upon hearing Ye Chen’s repeated rejection, his complexion suddenly turned sour, and his gaze towards Ye Chen no longer held the look one gives a peerless genius.
After all, a peerless genius that cannot be used by him is of no use to him whatsoever.
Moreover, it’s not just about being useless.
This peerless genius has publicly disgraced him in front of countless people.
How could Xuan Yazi, having just advanced to an Ultimate Star Lord, endure such an affront?
Xuan Yazi directly glared at Ye Chen, his eyes glistening with Divine Light, ready to make things difficult for Ye Chen.
At this moment.
A hearty laugh echoed through the void.
Following that, a somewhat hoarse voice filled everyone’s ears: “Xuan Yazi, my friend, are you trying to harm someone just because you can’t accept them as a disciple?
That’s unbecoming of an Ultimate Star Lord!”
Whoa.
When this voice emerged, everyone turned towards the source of the sound.
What they saw made many people’s expressions change again.
However, beside Ye Chen, Star Lord Ning Luo and Chining Xiaoxiao beamed with joy.
“The senior from our Heavenly Origin Mountain has stepped out!”
“We didn’t even call for help, yet he stepped out and spoke on Ye Chen’s behalf.
Now, with this senior here, Xuan Yazi cannot harm Ye Chen!”
Ye Chen also looked towards the voice and saw a chubby middle-aged man in splendid attire appear on another Void Heaven not far from Xuan Yazi, resembling the Buddha Maitreya.
Although this splendidly dressed man appeared to be middle-aged, his actual age surpassed even Xuan Yazi’s.
This man was an old Star Lord from the second-ranked supreme power of the Cosmic Sea South Pole Region, where Star Lord Ning Luo and Chining Xiaoxiao hailed from—the Heavenly Origin Mountain!
This old Star Lord was named Yuan Tianling.
Although this old Star Lord had not yet achieved the status of an Ultimate Star Lord, even Xuan Yazi, who had just successfully advanced to an Ultimate Star Lord, dared not belittle him.
This is because Yuan Tianling was at a crucial stage of advancing to become an Ultimate Star Lord, at the peak state of a Supreme Star Lord, only one step away from succeeding.
No one knew why he left the life-or-death pass and was now at the Ten Thousand Stars Tower.
More importantly, although Yuan Tianling himself was not an Ultimate Star Lord, he had a brother even more formidable, a figure of immense stature that Xuan Yazi truly feared!
Yuan Tianling’s brother, named Yuan Tianyi, had long become a supreme figure as an Ultimate Star Lord!
Even within Heavenly Origin Mountain, he ranked among the top three supreme beings!
Upon witnessing Yuan Tianling’s appearance, Xuan Yazi couldn’t help but regain his composure and bowed respectfully towards Yuan Tianling.
On the side, Gu Tianyi, who initially wanted to take Ye Chen as a disciple but was overtaken by Xuan Yazi, felt quite aggrieved.
However, seeing that not only did Ye Chen reject Xuan Yazi, but Yuan Tianling also overshadowed Xuan Yazi, he couldn’t help but feel great satisfaction.
“Hmph, if I cannot have this great disciple, then neither should you, Xuan Yazi.”
“See how Ye Chen stands beside two disciples of Heavenly Origin Mountain?
It seems this lad is destined to fall under Heavenly Origin Mountain’s banner.”
In the end, Gu Tianyi looked somewhat regretful: “Alas, what a pity!
Our Divine Point Mountain was already at a disadvantage compared to Heavenly Origin Mountain.
Now, they’ve gained another top-tier genius disciple, likely leaving Divine Point Mountain further behind in the future!”
Just like Gu Tianyi.
Upon seeing Yuan Tianling appear, everyone shared the same thought.
Undoubtedly, the exceptional young man before them, Ye Chen, would join Heavenly Origin Mountain.
At this moment, Yuan Tianling also gazed at Ye Chen with a smile, but instead of addressing Ye Chen first, he turned to Star Lord Ning Luo beside Ye Chen.
“Young lady Ning Luo, weren’t you in the Sea of Exile?
How did you return to the Cosmic Sea?”
“And this young friend here seems quite familiar with you.
Such an outstanding talent, why haven’t you persuaded him to join our Heavenly Origin Mountain?
We, Heavenly Origin Mountain, are the second-ranked Holy Mountain in the Southern Polar Region.”
Yuan Tianling’s remarks prompted Ning Luo to hurriedly bow to him.
However, even before Star Lord Ning Luo could say much more, Yuan Tianling had already shifted the topic back to Ye Chen, asking Ye Chen directly, “What do you think, young friend Ye Chen?
Are you not interested in Xuan Yazi’s side?
Would you consider our Heavenly Origin Mountain?”
“I haven’t intended to take in disciples for many years, but today I’ll make an exception.
Young friend, would you be willing to join Heavenly Origin Mountain and become my disciple?”
With a grin, Yuan Tianling extended an invitation to Ye Chen.
However, amid Yuan Tianling’s smiling gaze.
Ye Chen once again shook his head with a smile and replied, “Senior, this junior truly has no intention of taking another master, forgive my inability to comply.”
Amid the astonished gazes of countless onlookers.
Ye Chen astonishingly refused the invitation from an even greater figure, the Heavenly Origin Mountain’s Yuan Tianling, once more!
