Everyone''s eyes were fixed on Ye Guan, and even the man in ck didn''t bother hiding his hostility toward him.


    Ye Guan remained silent. He knew they were all curious about what he had obtained from the mysterious figure. He was sure that some of them were even plotting to take his boon away by force.


    Just then, Ye Guan bowed respectfully toward where the mysterious figure wasst seen.


    "Farewell, Master," he said.


    Master? The onlookers were dumbfounded. Had he just acknowledged that mysterious figure as his master?


    Dai Zong furrowed his brows, staring intently at Ye Guan with his thoughts unreadable.


    Thedy in white cast a curious nce at Ye Guan, while the man in ck looked visibly displeased.


    Without another word, Ye Guan turned around and walked away with Yi Nian.


    The stone door had already opened, and they soon disappeared into the distance.Dai Zong and his group from the Junlin Civilization followed suit, and thedy in white departed with her group after stealing a nce at the blood-red coffins behind them.


    The man in ck stood quietly by himself for a long time. Then, he nced at the blood-red coffins in the distance. A cold light glimmered in his eyes as he turned around and left.


    Peace returned to the starry region.


    Amidst the clouds, Dai Zong gazed quietly into the distant horizon.


    A white-haired elder next to him asked, "Young Master, those blood-red coffins definitely contain extraordinary treasures. Should we take them?"


    Dai Zong pondered for a moment before shaking his head.


    Perplexed, the white-haired elder asked, "Why not?"


    Dai Zong smiled as he looked at the deep rifts in the sky left by a sword light. "Elder Qi, what do you think of that young man? Is he just an ordinary Divine Dao Realm cultivator in your eyes?"


    Shaking his head, Elder Qi replied, "He exudes an extraordinary aura, and the fact that he was favored by that mysterious figure means that he''s nomon figure.


    "But I suspect that his bow and the word ''Master'' that he had uttered were meant to intimidate us—to dissuade us from acting recklessly against him."


    Dai Zong nodded knowingly. Master? They weren''t easily fooled by Ye Guan, as their instincts were too sharp for that.


    Elder Qi hesitated briefly before saying, "Young Master, he''s remarkable, but he surely cannot surpass our Junlin Civilization..."


    Dai Zong shook his head, and his expression was serious as he replied, "Elder Qi, we mustn''t underestimate him. There are countless civilizations throughout this vast expanse. We are a Tier Four civilization, but it doesn''t mean we are invincible. Don''t forget that a myriad of Tier Four civilizations had fallen throughout the endless history of the vast expanse."


    Elder Qi nodded thoughtfully. "Indeed."


    Dai Zong gazed into the distant horizon and murmured, "That young man has been hiding his true strength, keeping a low profile all throughout the ordeal. In addition, he was unafraid even in the face of the Asura Civilization. Even the asional hint of fear in his face seemed like a facade...


    "Most importantly, he was qualified to make a deal with that mysterious figure..."


    The white-haired elder spoke in a grave tone of voice, "Young Master, are you saying that perhaps he''s from a Tier Three civilization?"


    "Hard to say. Anyway, he''s definitely extraordinary," Dai Zong said, chuckling, "It would be foolish and reckless for us to attack him without knowing anything about him. Besides, there are those who are more eager than us to attack him."


    "The Asura Civilization?"


    Dai Zong looked away and smiled without speaking.


    Meanwhile, thedy in ck armor next to thedy in white asked, "Supreme Schr, that young man has multiple divine treasures within him..."


    Thedy in white turned to thedy in ck armor and said, "Commander Pan, it seems that you''re nursing a grudge against him."


    Thedy in ck armor''s face changed drastically, and she hurriedly exined, "No, it''s just that he..."


    "Commander Pan, did you not see that he''s quite extraordinary?" asked thedy in white.


    Commander Pan looked down and remained silent.


    Thedy in white added, "You must have noticed it, but you dismissed it. Why? It''s all because you believe that even if he''s extraordinary, he can''t possibly be our Asura Civilization''s match. Am I right?"


    Commander Pan nced at thedy in white''s face, but she dared not speak.


    Shaking her head, thedy in white said, "Commander Pan, I understand your feelings. Over the years, you''ve conquered multiple civilizations throughout the vast expanse, and you''ve remained unparalleled wherever you want so far. I''m sure that''s the reason you unconsciously look down on other civilizations. However, you must understand that there are a myriad of powerful, unknown civilizations throughout the vast expanse. If our Asura Civilization thinks itself as invincible, it means that the day of our ruin is nigh."


    Commander Pan bowed slightly, saying nothing.


    Thedy in white added, "That young man is exceptional. He has just entered the Divine Dao Realm, but I''m sure he''sparable to you in strength, Commander Pan."


    Commander Pan was silent.


    Thedy added, "I know you''re unconvinced, but that''s okay. Just watch him closely from now on. Make any move against him, and you''ll pay the price for it."


    Commander Pan''s expression changed slightly, and she hastily replied, "I understand."


    Naturally, she wouldn''t defy the orders of thedy in front of her, even if she weren''t her direct superior.


    The Supreme Schr''s position was sacred and esteemed. Even the Asura King, the ruler of the Asura Civilization, had to show respect toward her.


    After giving Commander Pan a warning, thedy in white was about to leave when she recalled something and stopped.


    She turned to look into the distance and pondered briefly over something. After a while, she emerged from her own thoughts and said, "You all go back first."


    She transformed into a beam of light and disappeared into the sky.


    A soldier standing behind Commander Pan couldn''t help but remark, "Commander Pan, isn''t the Supreme Schr too cautious? That young man was just an ordinary talent. Why—"


    "Shut up!" Commander Pan snapped angrily, interrupting the soldier. She red at the soldier and said, "Just who do you think you are to think that you can understand the Supreme Schr''s decisions?"


    The soldier dared not speak again.


    Commander Pan looked up at the distant horizon with cold eyes.


    When she first saw the young man, thetter appeared to be a coward, so she didn''t have a good impression of him. Naturally, she didn''t believe that such a cowardly person would have the backing of a powerful civilization.


    And even if he had powerful backers, what were they going to do?


    Why would the Asura Civilization be afraid of them?


    ***


    Ye Guan streaked across a sea of clouds on his sword. Yi Nian was standing behind him on the same sword.


    All of a sudden, ady in white appeared not too far away from him, forcing him to stop.


    She was none other than the Supreme Schr of the Asura Civilization.


    Ye Guan stared calmly at thedy in white and asked, "Do you have any important business with me?"


    Thedy in white smiled. "I wouldn''te here if it weren''t important."


    Ye Guan was speechless.


    Thedy in white suddenly asked, "Can I touch you?"


    <em>Huh? </em>Ye Guan froze. "What, what did you say? Say it again?"


    Thedy in white was stunned to see Ye Guan''s shocked face. Momentster, she realized that her words did sound suspicious, so she chuckled and exined, "I sense that you possess an extraordinary bloodline. I want to experience it up close. I mean no harm."


    Ye Guan found it amusing.


    "I didn''t think much of it, but your words were really..." Ye Guan snickered and then changed the topic, asking, "You can sense my bloodline?"


    Ye Guan became a bit wary. He had always kept his bloodline hidden with Little Pagoda''s help, so he was truly surprised to know that thedy in white could sense it.


    Thedy in white nodded slightly and exined, "Your bloodline is hidden, and it''s hard for outsiders to discover it. However, I possess a special bloodline, which allowed me to sense your bloodline."


    Ye Guan was a bit surprised. "Special bloodline?"


    Thedy in white robes smiled slightly. She then opened her palm, and a drop of blood flew out of her palm, hovering in front of Ye Guan.


    Ye Guan looked at the drop of blood in front of him.


    The blood was dark red, containing an extremely terrifying and powerful energy. The energy was contained, but the surrounding spacetime couldn''t bear its presence, eventually bing illusory.


    "You''re staring at the Asura Bloodline. Abat-type bloodline," thedy in white exined.


    Ye Guan stared deeply at thedy in white.


    "What about your bloodline? What are its attributes?"


    Ye Guan thought for a moment before answering, "Madness."


    "Madness?"


    "Yes." Ye Guan nodded and opened his palm, sending a drop of blood toward thedy in white.


    Thedy in white robes opened her palm, and the drop of Mad Demon Bloodlinended in her palm. Her expression gradually became solemn as she sized up the drop of blood.


    After a while, thedy in white looked at Ye Guan and remarked, "Your bloodline is quite extraordinary."


    Ye Guan smiled and said nothing.


    Thedy in white said, "If you''re free, you''re wee to visit the Asura Civilization."


    Ye Guan immediately shook his head. "I''m not going"


    "Why?"


    "Thedy in ck armor by your side wants to kill me."


    Thedy in white smiled, and then she opened her palm, revealing a mysterious fiery red badge.


    It flew out from her palm and hovered in front of Ye Guan.


    Ye Guan was confused. "What is this?"


    "It''s the Schr Badge. You can think of it as a symbol of my identity. If you encounter anyone from the Asura civilization, just show them this badge, and they won''t dare to be hostile toward you."


    Ye Guan looked at thedy in white and asked, "Why are you doing this for me?"


    Thedy in white replied, "The Asura Civilization likes to fight, but we like making friends as well. I don''t know where you''re from, but I''m willing to establish a good rtionship with you on behalf of the Asura Civilization."


    Ye Guan was silent.


    Thedy in white added, "The badge contains a map of the Asura Civilization. If you want to visit us, just activate it... I hope you''lle. We can talk more about our bloodlines by then."


    "That sounds great," Ye Guan agreed.


    Thedy in white smiled and disappeared.


    Ye Guan looked down at the badge in his hand and smiled. "Let''s go!"


    With that, he entered the tiny pagoda with Yi Nian, but he was immediately stunned!


    How did he bring Yi Nian into the tiny pagoda?


    Yi Nian blinked, and the corner of her lips lifted slightly at the sight before her.
