204: The Star God Clan's Emperor! The Great Emperor of the Galaxy!

The difference between them was like that of a firefly and a bright moon—truly insurmountable.

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s nine Dharma Bodies, which he had pressed down, also all came to a standstill.

Although they didn't continue to attack the four Supreme, their power still hadn't dissipated, pressing down on the heads of the four Supreme, capable of severely injuring them at any time.

“Old Ancestor, save us, kill…”

Upon sensing that Imperial might, the four Supreme were overjoyed and shouted urgently.

However, before they could finish their words, Ye Xuan’s power enveloped them.

At this moment, the four Supreme’s expressions changed drastically, and they dared not utter another word.

Because they understood that if they continued to speak, even if the Great Emperor made a move, Ye Xuan could act a step faster than the Great Emperor.

“The Great Emperor has arrived?”

“No, this aura is indeed that of a Great Emperor, but it’s not his true body; it’s merely a wisp of Divine Thought.”

Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow; with the pressure of Imperial might gone, Ye Xuan quickly perceived the difference in this power.

It was indeed the Great Emperor’s power, but it was somewhat lacking, not as powerful as Ye Xuan had imagined.

This should just be a wisp of the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought, not his true body.

“Indeed, little friend’s perception is quite keen. This is indeed a wisp of my Divine Thought, but it also contains the might of the Dao.”

The aged voice no longer wondered why Ye Xuan could resist his pressure; instead, he answered Ye Xuan’s question.

“I presume you are the Star River Great Emperor of the Star God Clan. You didn’t intervene earlier but only spoke when I was about to kill these four Supreme.”

“This is a bit untoward!”

Ye Xuan folded his arms, looking at that Great Emperor’s Divine Thought without much fear.

If a true Great Emperor had descended at this moment, Ye Xuan would have avoided making a move, as the chasm between them was insurmountable.

Even if he possessed an Immortal Physique and Supreme secret arts, it would be the same.

But if it was just a wisp of Divine Thought, not only was he not afraid, but he even wanted to try and see if his current power could contend with a Great Emperor’s Divine Thought!

“Haha, little friend is very right. I already understand this matter and the course of events. They were indeed in the wrong, but could you please release them for my sake?”

This Great Emperor’s Divine Thought had no angry thoughts.

Instead, his voice was extremely gentle, and his tone even revealed some appreciation for Ye Xuan.

The Great Emperor’s Divine Thought was fully capable of discerning Ye Xuan’s true strength.

Ye Xuan was currently only a Quasi-Emperor, not even at the fifth stage of Quasi-Emperor, yet his power was already comparable to a Supreme.

Moreover, in battle, he could overwhelm four Supreme by himself.

This power, Physique, and even potential far surpassed the younger generation of the Star God Clan.

Even some elders couldn't compare to Ye Xuan.

The Star River Great Emperor already had the intention of nurturing Ye Xuan.

Star Shadow had previously acknowledged Ye Xuan as her husband.

Ye Xuan’s potential could at least allow him to become an Immortal, or even advance further.

And if Ye Xuan became powerful, it would mean that the Star God Clan could also gain the protection of an Immortal.

Of course, he wouldn't push him away.

“No!”

Ye Xuan flatly refused the words of the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought.

If one hesitates, one suffers. These four Supreme were eager to put him to death.

Although they were extremely docile in front of the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought now, once they were free, they would undoubtedly try every means to deal with him.

Ye Xuan wasn’t afraid of overt schemes; after all, brute force overcomes all.

But he was afraid of those disgusting tricks behind his back.

It wasn't that Ye Xuan couldn't deal with them; he just found them too disgusting and not worth it.

Moreover, it was impossible to rescue someone from his hands without giving some benefits.

“Star Reverend Jin, Star Shadow greets the Star River Emperor Ancestor!”

At this moment, the two women, Star Shadow and Star Reverend Jin, also hurried to Ye Xuan’s front and performed a grand bow to the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought.

This was the Star River Great Emperor, one of their six lineage’s Old Ancestor.

Even a Supreme must show the respect of a Junior when meeting a Great Emperor.

Ye Xuan’s words just now made Star Shadow a little worried.

If he angered the Great Emperor, there would be no good outcome.

And Star Reverend Jin also greatly admired Ye Xuan’s boldness.

Although what was before them was only the Great Emperor’s Divine Thought and not the Great Emperor himself, it could still slap them to death.

To them, whether it was a Divine Thought or the Great Emperor’s personal arrival, there was no difference.

“Alas… this puts me in a difficult position. If I let you kill these four, my Star God Clan would lose four Supreme, which is truly inappropriate.”

“Since you’re unwilling to release them, and I also find it a bit troublesome, how about this: since you are Star Shadow’s husband, you will participate in this Star God Clan Grand Competition on her behalf.”

“However, your strength is known to all; once you participate in the Grand Competition, the other Juniors will certainly not be your match.”

“Therefore, I will directly announce Star Shadow as the next Star Lord and bestow upon her a scroll of the Star River Secret Art.”

“As for you… I can allow you to enter the Star God Clan’s Legacy Land once. What you gain in that Legacy Land will depend entirely on your own Luck. How does that sound?”

The Star River Great Emperor was not angry because of Ye Xuan’s refusal.

After all, if Ye Xuan had truly chosen to release them merely because of the Great Emperor’s pressure, it would have been a lesser outcome.

“Not enough. I want the entire Star God Clan to bow down to Star Shadow, and from now on, never dare to show her the slightest disrespect. She must not only become the Star Lord but also the Dominator of the entire Star God Clan.”

“Moreover, these four lineages must also hand over thirty percent of their foundational resources to Star Shadow.”

Ye Xuan certainly wouldn’t stop there; he wanted more.

“Very well, it shall be as you say.”

The Great Emperor’s Divine Thought sighed.

Subsequently, the Great Emperor’s might instantly erupted, and that power immediately enveloped the entire Star God Clan.

The Great Emperor’s thunderous voice also resounded in the ears of numerous Star God Clan powerhouses.

“From this day forward, Star Shadow shall be honored as the Star Lord of the Star God Clan. All lineages of the Star God Clan shall submit to Star Shadow. Any who disobey shall be dealt with according to clan rules.”

“Xing Ming, Xing Hai, Xing Long, and Xing Tai, for offending the Star Lord, shall be sent to the Enforcement Hall for admonishment. Each of your four lineages must surrender thirty percent of your resources as tribute to the Star Lord.”

“Should any defy, I shall personally deal with them and punish them severely without leniency.”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

At this moment, the terrifying might of the Great Emperor instantly erupted, covering the entire Star God Clan.

Under the Great Emperor’s pressure, countless members of the Star God Clan trembled, not daring to show the slightest disrespect towards Star Shadow.

The four Supreme also turned pale upon hearing these words.

Each of their lineages had to surrender thirty percent of their resources!

If they truly gave them up, their four lineages would be severely crippled, and their development would stagnate.
