Chapter 1461: Diplomatic Envoy

“Now our human race is considered a major clan within the chaotic center. We should cultivate some vassal races to enhance our standing, and I’m assigning this task to your Yuanshi Sect,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

In fact, he had already planned to give the Yuanshi Sect several large worlds.

In his view, having so many powerful beings crowded in the Three Thousand Realms wasn’t beneficial for the development of the human race.

“Alright, thank you, Grand Elder,” Huangshan said, understanding Xu Fan’s good intentions and feeling somewhat moved.

To be honest, Huangshan felt that anyone in the position of Holy Lord of the human race wouldn’t be as magnanimous as Xu Fan.

For a race to develop quickly, it’s best to have only one voice or will within the clan.

“We’re all friends, and the future development of the human race will rely on all of you,” Xu Fan added.

Reflecting on the years, he realized that while he had leaned on various strong allies, he ultimately became the strongest himself.

After chatting for a while longer, Huangshan and Yuan Lord took their leave.

“Two large worlds come with many troubles,” Yuan Lord said, rubbing his temples.

“What troubles? These are guarantees for the future development of the Yuanshi Sect.”

“You’re just thinking of having fun, leaving the important matters of the Yuanshi Sect’s inheritance to me,” Huangshan said, looking at Yuan Lord with a mix of disappointment and frustration.

“The establishment of the Yuanshi Sect was for the inheritance of the human race. With the emergence of the Hidden Spirit Sect, it no longer matters whether the Yuanshi Sect exists,” Yuan Lord said with a smile.

“Alright, what you just said, I’ve conveyed it all unchanged to those human race elders. You should take care of yourself.”

The two stepped onto the teleportation formation and returned to the Yuanshi Sect.

At that moment, outside the gate of the Yuanshi Sect, the Body Refinement Elder and Law Form Elder stood guard, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

As soon as they saw Yuan Lord, the Body Refinement Elder angrily said, “The inheritance of the Yuanshi Sect isn’t important? It seems I need to have a serious talk with you about your deceased master!”

The Body Refinement Elder’s bones crackled as he looked ready to tear Yuan Lord apart.

“Elder, listen to me; that was just nonsense! The inheritance of the Yuanshi Sect has always been of utmost importance to me, even more than my own life!”

Yuan Lord shot Huangshan a fierce glare.

“Is that so? Let me see how much the inheritance of the Yuanshi Sect weighs in your heart,” the Law Form Elder said as he restrained Yuan Lord, dragging him like a dead dog toward the outside of the Three Thousand Realms.

Outside the Three Thousand Realms, in a palace on the Holy Light Star.

“Xiao Guang, come with me. There must be a way in our clan to ensure your everlasting existence.”

“I’ve already spoken to Master Xu, and he said as long as you’re willing, it’s fine,” the Holy Light Girl said, tears welling in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Guang.

After Xu Fan returned to the Three Thousand Realms, the Holy Light Girl had taken up residence on the Holy Light Star.

Over the years, she had formed a close friendship with Xiao Guang.

“I’m not going. Here, I have my husband and children. If I go with you, besides you, I’d have no other friends,” Xiao Guang said, shaking her head lightly.

“Ah, I knew it.”

“Xiao Guang, I don’t know when I’ll be able to come back to see you. I truly don’t want to leave you!” the Holy Light Girl said as she hugged Xiao Guang.

“It’s alright. I’ll always be here waiting for you. We’re good friends,” Xiao Guang replied.

At that moment, another stunningly beautiful woman arrived at the palace.

“Xiao Yang, I’m about to return to the Holy Light Empire. Will you miss me?” the Holy Light Girl asked, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at the newcomer.

“Of course! When I get the chance, I’ll bring Xiao Guang to visit you in the Holy Light Empire,” Xiao Yang replied, wrapping his arm around the Holy Light Girl with a smile.

“Xiao Yang loves me a bit more; Xiao Guang hasn’t even come to find me.”

Just then, the Holy Light Girl suddenly received a message from the Holy Light Empire.

With a strange expression, she turned to Xiao Guang and Xiao Yang and said, “Sisters, I can’t leave now. I’ve been appointed as the Holy Light Empire’s ambassador to the human race.”

Her expression was a mix of emotions.

At that moment, a beam of holy light flickered in the sky above the Three Thousand Realms, and a Holy Light Palace materialized.

This was the ambassadorial palace bestowed upon the Holy Light Girl by the Holy Light Empire.

“A Holy Light Palace of Primordial Supreme Treasure level! It seems the leader holds me in high regard,” the Holy Light Girl said, her voice tinged with surprise as she gazed at the newly appeared palace.

“Come, let’s go see my future home,” she said, pulling Xiao Guang and Xiao Yang toward the Holy Light Palace.

“Master, we’ve received diplomatic requests from the eleven major races of the chaotic center,” Grape reported.

“Go ahead and establish relations with them; it’s no big deal,” Xu Fan said with a casual wave.

As they spoke, a massive chaotic calamity erupted outside the Three Thousand Realms.

“It’s a bit earlier than Xuanxin predicted, but it’s perfect timing.”

“Grape, assist Xuanxin in overcoming the tribulations with everything you’ve got,” Xu Fan instructed.

“Understood, Master.”

Meanwhile, the Holy Light Girl, who had been exploring the Holy Light Palace, sensed the chaotic calamity outside the Three Thousand Realms.

“Looks like I’ll need to focus on cultivation from now on.”

At the same time, Wang Xuanxin appeared outside the Three Thousand Realms and redirected the chaotic calamity toward the Holy Light Armor.

The overwhelming calamity raged on for three months.

When it finally subsided, the human race had gained another Chaotic Great Saint.

“Greetings, Master! Your disciple has successfully overcome the tribulations!” Wang Xuanxin exclaimed, bowing deeply with excitement.

“Well done! Though it’s a bit like forcing growth, your solid foundation made it possible,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“For now, don’t think about anything else. Go back and fully immerse yourself in the Chaotic Great Saint level,” he added, clearly pleased to have another Chaotic Great Saint among his disciples.

“Let’s celebrate the addition of another Chaotic Great Saint to our sect!”

And so, the Hidden Spirit Sect erupted into celebration once more.

A month later, after the festivities ended, the outer reaches of the Three Thousand Realms buzzed with activity again.

Delegations from the major races of the chaotic center arrived, adding to the prosperity of the Three Thousand Realms.

Twelve uniquely designed palaces now stood outside the Three Thousand Realms.

All but the Holy Light Empire’s palace were guarded by Chaotic Great Saint-level powerful beings.

In the Heavenly Merchant Clan’s palace, Xu Fan was engaged in a game of Realm Chess with the Chaotic Great Saint of the Heavenly Merchant Clan.

“I didn’t expect the Holy Lord of the human race to be so skilled at Realm Chess. I concede,” the Chaotic Great Saint of the Heavenly Merchant Clan said.

“Your skills are no less impressive. May I ask who taught you?” Xu Fan replied with a smile.

“There’s a safe passage from my Heavenly Merchant Clan to the Chaotic Mist Area. I learned Realm Chess from a powerful being there,” the ambassador explained openly.

“Ah, that explains the unique style,” Xu Fan chuckled.

“Did you perhaps learn Realm Chess in the Chaotic Mist Area?” the ambassador asked curiously.

Xu Fan’s artifact crafting avatar had been drawn into the Primordial Chaos Zone and, after hundreds of thousands of years, returned. Along the way, he had inevitably encountered other chaotic lands.

“Something like that,” Xu Fan replied.

“I came to ask you a question today, Great Ambassador.

What would happen if a leader-level powerful being suddenly appeared in our Chaotic Mist Area?”

The Chaotic Great Saint of the Heavenly Merchant Clan was momentarily stunned by the question.

“If it’s a god or demon, the leaders of the major clans would unite to suppress it.

If it’s a being from within the realms, it would still face joint suppression from the major clans while also guarding against gods or demons.”
