134: Chapter 134 The news arrived, and everything made sense.

Li Yuan is currently at an age where his Cultivation progress is at its peak speed.

Generally speaking, a Martial Artist's Cultivation speed only begins to slow down significantly after they pass the age of thirty-five.

Li Yuan is currently only twenty.

He still has over a decade of rapid Cultivation ahead of him.

With such a long time, Li Yuan will surely reach even higher heights.

Others would think so, and Dean Guo thought so too.

Currently, the Martial Academy stands completely on Li Yuan's side, so they naturally hope for his success.

Dean Guo and the others did not want trivial matters to delay Li Yuan's progress.

Returning to his small courtyard, Li Yuan climbed the attic and looked into the distance.

His battle with the Amber Sovereign had served as a complete verification of his own strength.

It was also time to avenge his family.

The deep hatred of having his family home raided and his clan exterminated was not something that could be settled with a simple wave of the hand.

Furthermore, they were the ones who had taken the initiative to seek him out this time.

After discovering his identity, those people's first thought was to pull him up by the roots and eliminate him entirely.

Facing such enemies, how could he possibly grant them forgiveness?

However, moving forward, he needed a bit of time to thoroughly uncover the mastermind behind that incident.

That night, Li Yuan attended a banquet with the high-level officials of the Martial Academy.

This banquet was held to celebrate the rebirth of both Li Yuan and the Martial Academy.

From this day forward, no more terrifying or inexplicable crises would be seen on the surface.

The road ahead was now a smooth path.

Li Yuan took this opportunity to ask Dean Guo and the others to help him investigate.

He wanted to know exactly who the mastermind was behind the raid and extermination of his family.

Which group of people had planned and arranged it all?

Facing Li Yuan's request, Dean Guo accepted it frankly.

“After your battle with the Amber Sovereign today, investigating these matters will be much less difficult.

Everyone knows your future is limitless, while the Amber Sovereign has already fallen.

If we leak a little bit of word to the outside, I'm sure many people will take the initiative to come and provide information.”

Dean Guo did not try to take credit for himself; instead, he pointed out that the difficulty of this matter was far less than expected.

After discussing that, Dean Guo continued with some official business.

Li Yuan's battle with the Amber Sovereign had left the latter seriously injured.

And since tens of thousands had witnessed this battle with their own eyes, the facts were impossible to fake.

From now on, Li Yuan would take over the title of the Number One Supreme.

“Li Yuan, you also know that our Da Shun is not the only country in this world.

Besides those small external nations, there are five other major powers of similar size.

Now that you have taken the title of Da Shun's Number One Supreme, certain responsibilities fall upon you.

By next month at the latest, the Number One Supreme of the Jin Kingdom will certainly want to meet with you.”

Dean Guo spoke these words with great seriousness.

Li Yuan's current status was not just the cornerstone of the Martial Academy.

He was also the Guardian of the Shun Kingdom.

The conflict between the Shun Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom had existed for a long time; with such a major change occurring, the strongest experts of both sides needed a meeting.

They needed to stabilize the situation through this meeting and reduce miscalculations between the powerful experts.

The intensity of the war between the Jin Kingdom and the Shun Kingdom had always been controlled.

The fundamental reason was that the top experts of both countries had clarified the situation and would not enter the fray recklessly.

Dean Guo knew that the Shun Kingdom would undergo significant changes.

However, he did not wish for the Shun Kingdom to fall into chaos.

When Li Yuan took this position, he naturally had to continue keeping the situation stable.

Li Yuan nodded; he had no intention of throwing the entire Shun Kingdom into turmoil either.

Although he was a Transmigration soul, he still respected his father.

Everything his father had done at great risk was intended to make the entire Shun Kingdom better and allow the common people to live good lives.

Li Yuan was willing to carry on his legacy.

After avenging the raid and extermination of his family, Li Yuan wanted to ensure that the future Imperial Examinations followed a clean and honest path.

At that time, no matter whose dirty hands tried to touch it, Li Yuan would sever them!

“Before meeting with the Jin Kingdom's Supreme, see if you want to gather the various Supremes of Da Shun for a meeting.

After all, you have replaced the Amber Sovereign's position.

From now on, many major matters will be arranged by you.

Have the other Ninth-Grade Supremes come over so you can clarify certain things in advance.

Your arrangements and deployments will naturally be different from those of the Amber Sovereign.

By clarifying things first, there won't be as many conflicts later, and things won't escalate over every little trivial matter.”

Li Yuan nodded.

“Please arrange it, Dean Guo. I will first meet with the various Ninth-Grade Supremes of Da Shun.”

...

News of the battle between Li Yuan and the Amber Sovereign spread extremely fast.

The various major powers all transmitted the news via urgent correspondence.

In just two days, most of the factions in the entire Shun Kingdom had learned of the matter.

Not long after the news reached the factions under the Amber Sovereign's command, unrest broke out.

Conflicts that had previously been suppressed were immediately triggered once the Amber Sovereign lost his influence.

The news also reached Yingyang Pass.

The current City Lord of Yingyang Pass, Wang Jiuxing, was dead, and the trusted lieutenants and generals by his side had also perished.

In the Military Camp, the moment the news arrived, everyone was shaken.

“Li Yuan is a Ninth-Grade Supreme? That kid has ninth-grade strength? That's impossible, right?”

The soldiers who knew Li Yuan subconsciously asked three questions in a row.

They had lived with Li Yuan for so long, yet they truly hadn't sensed anything.

Of course, the main reason was that Li Yuan was sufficiently low-profile.

Only a talented and potential-filled young man like Li Yuan would be willing to take over the position of Corpse Collector.

When seeing a Corpse Collector in the Military Camp, everyone would subconsciously assume the person had no martial prowess.

In the Military Camp, various doubts kept emerging.

But soon, these doubts were all resolved.

Too many people had seen the battle between Li Yuan and the Amber Sovereign, and the relevant details could be described in full.

It was different from when Li Yuan fought Yan Louchuan.

That time, the two had leaped to a distant mountain peak during their exchange, and many people could no longer see them.

But the fight between Li Yuan and the Amber Sovereign was completely clear.

Perhaps at times, the two's Moves were too fast for ordinary people to see clearly.

But the result was something everyone saw clearly.

The person most shocked by this news was the former City Lord of Yingyang Pass, Liu Shengyong.

His position as City Lord had been stripped by that Mysterious Supreme.

Only today did he learn that the Mysterious Supreme was Li Yuan.

Many questions he couldn't figure out suddenly all made sense.

Back then, when the talent testing Magical Artifact was brought to the Military Camp,

In the middle of the night, it suddenly detected a heaven-grade ninth-rank talent, and the artifact's sound woke the entire Military Camp.

At that time, Liu Shengyong couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Who in the Military Camp possessed such top-tier talent?

His son, Liu Weihe, did have a bit of martial talent.

But to say he had Heaven-Grade talent was something he didn't believe.

Afterward, that matter was left unresolved as no cause could be found.

Looking back now, everything made sense.

And later, Li Yuan had accompanied Liu Weihe to participate in the competition between the Shun Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom in the capacity of an attendant.

Facing the great trouble brought by Ruan Xingqiao and that Meng Guidu, Li Yuan had actually escaped unscathed.

Instead, it was Meng Guidu who had gone missing and died.
