"I truly understand the nobility's way of treating guests now. No need for you to lay a hand on me, I will go see the Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan myself!"

Bai Yan said with utter contempt.

The six monks from the Great Wilderness Clan, who originally intended to escort Bai Yan to see the Saint, were now frozen mid-air.

Just what is this man's background, to show such indifference even to a Saint!

Everyone knows that when a Saint is angered, the entire Star Domain could be destabilized!

Could it be that this person indeed has some powerful backing? Otherwise, why would he be so confident?

The six Great Wilderness Clan monks speculated over Bai Yan's origins in their minds, fearing that his background might be extraordinary; they did not dare to make any rash moves for the time being.

"What's the holdup? Hurry up and lead the way!"

Bai Yan said sternly, with an attitude of superiority, berating the monks.

If it were not for the upcoming negotiation with the Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan, these monks would have had no chance of surviving until now.

Having lived through numerous life-and-death crises, Bai Yan had long since developed a resolute and decisive nature.

"Big brother, quickly grab him!"

The monk with the severed arm urged pitifully.

Clearly, he was the one who took action, yet it now seemed as though he had the upper hand...

"Hmph, no matter where you come from, our clan's Saint will not let you off today!"

The leading Great Wilderness Clan monk put on a show of strength as he spoke to Bai Yan, and then he led the way, flying towards the territory of the Great Wilderness Clan.

Once the Great Wilderness Clan monks brought Bai Yan to a formidable palace, they stopped.

"Let him in and the rest of you withdraw."

Before the monks could make their report, a soul-stirring voice emanated from inside the palace.

Even the likes of Bai Yan could not help but feel a submissive will arise in his heart upon hearing that voice.

This is the might of a Saint; each word and action representing the highest will of the Cosmic Dao, all beneath the Saint must submit!

"We will obey the Saint's command."

All six monks kneeled and bowed their heads in unison, leaving Bai Yan alone in front of the main hall.

Bai Yan walked in with ease, surveying his surroundings to find the grand hall was exceedingly spacious.

The only item was a gray meditation cushion placed at the very center, upon which a green-clad elder was seated cross-legged.

At first glance, the old man appeared just like any ordinary elder, nothing out of the ordinary.

But Bai Yan realized that even though he could clearly see the elder sitting there, he could not sense his presence.

To Bai Yan, this elder felt as if he were a mere projection, very ethereal.

This is the presence of a Saint; even a legendary cultivator has no right to perceive a Saint's existence.

"You are the Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan?"

Bai Yan walked casually up to the Great Wilderness Clan Saint, then sat down cross-legged, face to face with him.

"Humph! To see a Saint and not kneel!"

The Great Wilderness Clan Saint suddenly bellowed at Bai Yan.

He is the supreme being of the Great Wilderness Clan, a Saint, before whom all beings normally submit.

He had originally intended to bring Bai Yan into the great hall, and then use the pressure of the Saint to turn Bai Yan into a servant of the Great Wilderness Clan, to be subjugated for generations, as a means to establish his authority.

Never did he expect this seemingly insignificant legendary cultivator to dare to sit as an equal with him, which was intolerable.

Facing the Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan's strong rebuke, Bai Yan also couldn't help but become angry.

Ten thousand years ago, he was an Emperor of the Human Race, with the entire Endless Star Sea obeying his orders; even Outer Realm Practitioners would tremble at the mention of his name.

And now, a mere Saint dared to command him to kneel – truly courting death!

Under the gaze of the Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan, Bai Yan slowly stood up, looking down at him from above and said indifferently, "Thinking you can make me kneel? You're not qualified enough!"

"Not qualified enough?"

The Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan first looked at Bai Yan incredulously, then suddenly released a Saint-level pressure.

His robe stirred without wind, and an extremely terrifying pressure swirled around him.

Caught off guard, Bai Yan was forced back several meters, only stopping when he leaned against the corner of the wall.

"Now am I qualified enough?"

The Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan looked down at Bai Yan with undisguised killing intent.

"I said... you! Are not qualified!"

Facing the nearly tangible killing intent, Bai Yan coldly smiled and then pulled a white jade token from his bosom.

This was the jade token left by the Martial Saint Pavilion; Bai Yan had kept it on himself, while another token from the Purple Cliff Mountain was left on Demon Island.

This very token was Bai Yan's reliance for daring to intrude into the Great Wilderness Clan and face the Saint alone.

"Crack."

Bai Yan directly crushed it.

"I want to see who gave you the confidence to run wild in my Great Wilderness Clan."

The Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan was in no hurry to strike Bai Yan, but instead sat cross-legged on a cushion, using several Cosmic Dao to seal the entire palace, cutting off all of Bai Yan's retreat paths.

"Since you think you can face a Saint, then I will tear apart your reliance right before your eyes!"

The Saint of the Great Wilderness Clan snorted coldly.

"Really? Then I shall see if you have the ability to do so."

Bai Yan smiled enigmatically and calmly sat down cross-legged on the ground.

...

Martial Saint Pavilion.

"Buzz~"

Lin Qianyi, who was immersed in the understanding of the Cosmic Dao, suddenly felt a strange fluctuation in his chest.

"The other jade token has shattered! Not good! Senior Bai is in danger!"

With a cry of alarm, Lin Qianyi disappeared from the spot in the next moment, following the guidance of the jade token, leaping continuously through the Endless Star Sea.

"The Sect Master left in such a hurry, there must be something important!"

At the same time, within a rarely frequented pavilion of the Martial Saint Pavilion, an old man suddenly opened his eyes and quickly followed behind Lin Qianyi.

"Elder Di, you should peacefully continue your understanding of the Dao, there's no need to follow me."

Lin Qianyi also noticed the arrival of the elder and expressed his concern.

This old man was Lin Qianyi's Protector, but after Lin Qianyi became a supreme being, taking over as Master of the Martial Saint Pavilion, Elder Di sensed that his end was near and had been in seclusion for a thousand years hoping to step into the Emperor Realm when his time came.

"Sect Master, this humble one noticed your haste and cannot help but worry."

Elder Di looked at Lin Qianyi benignly. He had been assigned as Lin Qianyi's Protector when Lin Qianyi was a child.

Now, after many thousands of years, Elder Di had long come to view Lin Qianyi as his junior.

"Alright, the reason I'm rushing is because I sensed that Senior Bai is in danger and I'm going to provide support. There's no need for you to intervene personally."

Lin Qianyi explained to Elder Di.

"Senior Bai?"

Elder Di first looked puzzled, then his face showed admiration as he exclaimed, "To be able to witness the elegance of the first being of the Human Race on the eve of my twilight years is worth this lifetime!"

Knowing Elder Di's temperament, Lin Qianyi said no more to dissuade him, and the two of them sped away following the guidance of the jade token.
