I who devour the starry sky can refine all things

Chapter 167 Ji Qing's Choice
The man in the golden robe walked out of his temple and flew towards the highest mountain in the Kingdom of God.

On the top of the mountain stands a magnificent temple with a height of more than [-] kilometers.

The temple exudes dazzling golden light, and the golden light shines on the earth, and you can see the graceful figures in the temple from a distance.

At the highest level of the temple, the figure of the golden robe turned around, and then appeared at the gate of the vast hall.

The man in the golden robe took a deep breath, looked respectful, and walked into the hall with a slight bow.

"Roar..." Tens of thousands of golden immortal Zerg warriors were scattered in the hall, and they let out strange cries the moment they spotted the man in the golden robe.

"Master, I found the trace of No. 1." The man in the golden robe said respectfully to the Zerg brood surrounded by thousands of Zerg fighters.

"NO.1... finally appeared." An extremely gentle voice came from the Zerg brood, and the surrounding Zerg fighters fell silent after hearing it, intoxicated by it.

"Our organization's strength is not enough to do it. If you continue to order, you are not allowed to act rashly. The senior officials in the clan have already prepared for this operation. The senior leaders in the clan will personally take action!"

"It's... Master!" The golden robed man's pupils trembled when he heard this, and his voice began to tremble.

High-ranking members of the clan...

The Queen Mother of the Zerg Race is already an immortal existence, and she is at the level of a king, a higher level than the Queen Mother... Isn't it the Venerable Universe!
He thought that he attached great importance to No.1, but he didn't expect it to be enough to make the Zerg send a venerable!
……

Qiong Yuxing, Time Manor.

A group of more than a hundred people arrived at the gate of the manor.

"Third brother, is this your manor?" Hong looked at the luxurious Time Manor in front of him, and couldn't help being shocked, "This is even bigger than the mansion of the divination family."

During this period of time, Hong lived in the mansion of his teacher 'Luo''s friend Bu Yuka.

Bu Yuka was only the Immortal Army Lord, and he was not eligible to attend this banquet, but Shi Yan brought them all here.

Luo and Bu Yuka were both good people, and Shi Yan was willing to take care of them, so he let them go to the banquet together.

In the main hall of the banquet hall.

Zidianhou, Jinyuhou, and Heiyuhou all sensed the situation at the gate of the manor immediately.

They looked at each other, "Let's go!"

Whoosh!
The three disappeared instantly and appeared at the door.

As soon as Shi Yan led the people into the manor, he saw three people appearing out of thin air at the door.

"His Royal Highness Shi Yan." Zi Dian Hou, Jin Yu Hou, and Hei Yan Hou all greeted respectfully.

"The three of us, on behalf of the Ganwu Branch, welcome His Highness to come and guide our work."

"The three words are serious, I have to learn more from you." Shi Yan smiled.

The three giants were inquiring about Shi Yan's attitude inside and outside the words, and Shi Yan didn't hide it, which showed that I came to learn, and there was no need to think about other things.

These departments are more or less tricky, but who can avoid it, as long as they don't go too far, even the virtual universe company doesn't care about it, and Shi Yan will naturally not make a difference.

When the water is clear, there are no fish.

This is a well-known truth.

Shi Yan is not a rigid person, and there is no need to break the original balance of Ganwu Universe Kingdom.

When the three giants heard what Shi Yan said, a big stone in their hearts fell to the ground. At least Shi Yan didn't come up with a penny-pinching attitude, so everything can be negotiated.

"Your Highness, please come in quickly." Zi Dianhou said with a smile, leading Shi Yan and his party into the manor, "The time is short, and there are many inconspicuous preparations. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

"Marquis Zi Dian is being polite."

Accompanied by the three giants, Shi Yan, Luo Ge, Hong, Luo, and Bu Yuka walked towards the banquet hall, while the other guards were taken to the lounge beside them.

……

"Today we invite all the real important and powerful people in the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, and there are a few people who are close to His Highness, such as the God Lord of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Although they are not qualified enough, I have invited them too." Zi Dian Hou smiled.

People like Hong, Luo, and Bu Yuka would not have been eligible to participate, but Shi Yan wanted to bring them in, and the three giants readily agreed.

"I have a heart." Shi Yan said.

In the banquet hall, everyone also sensed the movement. The distinguished guests had arrived, and they had all communicated with each other. They knew what level of genius Shi Yan was, so naturally they didn't dare to neglect, and they all got up immediately.

Shiyan finally arrived at the banquet hall.

Marquis Zi Dian took the lead and said, "Everyone, on my left is His Highness Shi Yan, the special envoy from the headquarters of the virtual universe company."

Shi Yan also said kindly: "Sorry, I'm late, everyone has been waiting for a long time."

"Welcome to Your Highness."

"Your Highness is being polite."

Many immortal gods in the banquet hall welcomed Shi Yan's arrival one after another, and the eagerness made Shi Yan feel a little suffocated.

"Everyone sit down."

Marquis Jin Yu and Marquis Hei Yan led Shi Yan and others to sit at the main table, while Marquis Zi Dian walked all the way to the high platform at the front of the banquet hall.

"Everyone!" The ape-man Zi Dianhou smiled and looked at the many immortal gods below.

Many immortal gods below all smiled and looked up.

"There are such a group of people who have been selected into the virtual universe company after the genius battle, but how many people can surpass the peerless geniuses in the original secret realm who have cultivated for thousands of years in just a hundred years?" Zi Dianhou said loudly. , "And in this short period of a hundred years, there are only a handful of geniuses who can break through the universe-level primitive Tongtian Mountain, and whose understanding of laws surpasses that of the original secret realm master genius!"

"In the history of our human race, there are not many people who have crossed the universe-level primitive Tongtian Mountain, but according to the age of the people who passed through, they rank first..."

"It can also be said that the human race has the youngest potential and the greatest potential so far..."

"An unprecedented peerless genius who was recognized by the three original laws at the universe level!"

"Who is he?"

Zi Dianhou smiled all over his face, "He is the new supervisory envoy of our Ganwu branch—Shi Yan! And for a long time to come, I, Jin Yuhou, and Heiyuhou will fully support His Highness Shiyan in the Ganwu universe. all jobs in the country!"

As soon as this remark came out, the group of immortals from Ganwu Universe Kingdom below were secretly surprised. Everyone made eye contact and did not dare to make any strange noises.

At this time, Yan... is even more evil than they imagined!
No wonder the three giants look groveling!

Immortal, who was a little dissatisfied at the beginning, was secretly glad that he had found more people to inquire about some news, otherwise he would not know how he died in the future.

Zi Dian Hou also revealed important information both in and out of the words. The three giants want to support the work of this supervisory envoy. Then they, immortals with lower status, probably don't even have the right to speak!

At this moment, they all understood that in the future, there will be an existence more powerful than the three giants in Ganwu Universe Kingdom-the Supervising Special Envoy!
Even when they were thinking about a question, how did Shiyan compare with the status of the Lord of Ganwu?
The attitude of the three giants made them almost think that they were facing the Lord Ganwu.

"What you don't know is that Shi Yan hasn't crossed the Tongtian Bridge for decades since he crossed the Tongtian Mountain. He has only cultivated for more than a hundred years. No one can imagine how much his current understanding of the law has reached. Terrible!"

"It's only a few decades..." Some people started to mutter in their hearts after hearing the first half of the sentence, but they heard that they have practiced for more than a hundred years, so the weight of these decades is not small!

"Even if it's comparable to us... I won't be surprised!"

"The domain master level is comparable to the feudal lord?"

Many Immortals communicated via sound transmission.

They couldn't imagine it, but all the news from all sides hinted that Shi Yan's status was comparable to that of the Universe Venerable!
In other words, as long as he does not fall, he will most likely become the Supreme Master of the Universe in the future!
……

At the same time, Jin Yuhou and Heiyuhou stood up from their seats.

Hei Yanhou said with a smile, his gentle voice instantly echoed in the ears of everyone in the banquet hall, "Let us welcome His Highness Shiyan to the stage!"

"welcome!"

"Welcome His Highness Shiyan to the stage!"

This group of immortals quickly adjusted their mentality and responded enthusiastically. The three giants worked so hard, how could they lose the chain at this critical moment?

If Shi Yan really saw it, one sentence would probably be able to make his family survive in the cracks!
Shi Yan had no choice but to follow Jin Yuhou and Hei Yanhou to the stage together.

……

And at the nearest table diagonally opposite the main table, Yin Xuehou was staring straight at Hong!
From the moment Hong stepped into the banquet hall with Shi Yan, Yin Xuehou's heart was full of turmoil!

What is Hong's background that he can enter the arena with Shi Yan? !

He clearly checked that Hong was just a slightly talented native who came from a remote planet.

How could it be related to His Highness of the Primordial Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company?

When he was looking into Ji Qing's affairs, he had looked into some information about Hong, including Hong's photos, videos, etc.!But...Yin Xuehou really doesn't know the relationship between Hong and Shi Yan.

They also registered as cosmic citizens in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire when they participated in the genius battle, so from the perspective of outsiders, they only know that they are both from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

As for their personal relationship... no one will check, there are so many contestants in every empire, should they all check?

Yin Xuehou dared to look directly at Hong only after Shiyan left Hong's side, and Hong naturally felt the fiery gaze, and the eyes of the two intertwined instantly.

"Hong, what is your relationship with His Highness Shi Yan...?" Yin Xuehou couldn't help but asked through voice transmission.

"Shi Yan and I are brothers!" Hong said calmly, he didn't want to gain anything from Shi Yan's relationship, but he didn't need to hide it either.

He does things with a clear conscience.

"Brother..." Yin Xuehou pondered for a moment.

Except for Yin Xuehou who was surprised by Hong's appearance, almost everyone present had looked at Hong and the others.

It is even more curious to be able to enter the arena together with Shi Yan, who is weak in strength. This relationship must not be simple.

Especially Hong!

A mere universe grade, the only universe grade in the audience, unexpectedly qualified to sit at the main table.

No one is not asking, who is this Hong?

It was also at this time that Yin Xuehou understood why Shi Yan wanted Ji Qing to attend the banquet.

After recovering, Yin Xuehou looked at Ji Qing, and Ji Qing's eyes really met Hong's!
On one side is Ji Qing's teacher, a terrifying existence in Feng Wang Immortal.

On the other side is Hong's brother, a peerless genius whose talent status is comparable to that of the Universe Venerable.

He also hesitated, but fortunately he didn't care, when the time came, he would listen to Shi Yan's thoughts before making a decision.

……

Not long after, the four giants of the Ganwu branch stepped down from the high platform, and many immortal gods began to enjoy the feast.

Many service staff continuously delivered all kinds of delicacies, and these delicacies were made of ingredients shipped from all over the universe.

Immediately, the entire banquet hall was filled with lively discussions and conversations.

Ji Fengyan, a descendant of the world master beside Yin Xuehou, looked at Ji Qing and said in a low voice, "Xiaoqing, is that Hong?"

Ji Qing sneaked a glance at Yin Xuehou, leaned down next to Ji Fengyan's ear and said, "Sister Yan...it's him."

"He's here anyway, he seems to have a good relationship with this Highness..."

"I don't know... He never mentioned it to me."

Ji Qing didn't know how to talk to Hong for a moment, and Hong just looked at her with a smile.

Hong didn't communicate with Ji Qing impatiently, but sat calmly on the seat and tasted wine without saying a word, no one knew what he was thinking.

"Brother, can you still bear your thoughts?" Shi Yan said with a smile.

Hong shook his head slightly, "It's not any other force that hinders us, I'm just waiting for Ji Qing, of course I can give everything I can."

Shi Yan understood that Hong had already seen through it, but he didn't have a chance to explain it clearly to Ji Qing, and Ji Qing was actually still avoiding the problem.

In the original book, Hong experienced the life and death test of the Phantom Spirit King just to get Ji Qing's answer. He thought that his sincerity could influence Ji Qing's choice.

When the banquet came to an end, most of the Immortals had some communication with Shi Yan, but Yin Xuehou remained silent.

"Let's go, brother, let's talk." Shi Yan got up and walked to Yinxuehou's table, and Hong also followed.

"Yin Xuehou, I wonder if I can talk to you about the matter between my eldest brother and Ji Qing?" Shi's words were straightforward, and everyone knew it well, so there was no need to make false claims.

Yin Xuehou took a deep sip of wine, "His Royal Highness Shi Yan, please follow me."

They came to the edge of the banquet hall. Although the other immortals were very curious, they did not dare to approach.

"Since Hong and His Highness are brothers, I'll just say it straight." Yin Xuehou said to Shi Yan and Hong after thinking for a moment.

Afterwards, Yin Xuehou explained in detail how Ji Qing discovered the talent of an illusionist, entered the core of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and was accepted by the Illusory Spirit King.

Hong also understood that Ji Qing was very obsessed with strength and cared about her family, that's why she was so hesitant.

Hong probably knew Ji Qing's choice, but he still had to work harder.

"Master Yinxuehou, can I... meet the Phantom Spirit King once!" Hong Tanran said.

Yin Xuehou was also shocked when he heard the words, he actually felt Hong's indomitable will, and that will had a faint sense of oppression on him!

Are you kidding me... A little guy at the cosmic level, can his will be stronger than mine?

Shi Yan said, "Brother, have you confirmed what Ji Qing thinks?"

"If, I mean if, even if the Phantom Spirit King doesn't stop, will Ji Qing really choose to be with you?"

Hong smiled and said, "Her thoughts are not so easy to change, but if you don't try, how will you know?"

The moment he saw Ji Qing in the banquet hall, he already knew it in his heart. For those who love each other, a look is enough to explain the problem.

This is also the purpose of Shiyan. In the original novel, Hong and Ji Qing insisted on waiting until the last moment to meet, and all efforts were in vain.

Yin Xuehou was really in a difficult situation. He didn't want to offend both Shi Yan and the Phantom Spirit King. Once Hong and the Phantom Spirit King were allowed to meet, it was out of his control.

Immediately, his heart was broken, and he sent a voice transmission to Ji Qing: "Qingqing, it's time for you to make a decision, choose Hong or the master, come and make a decision."

If Ji Qing rejected Hong himself, Shi Yan would not be able to embarrass the Ji family for this.

Naturally, his heart is still biased towards the Phantom Spirit King. After all, compared with a famous Immortal King, the road to genius is still long.

As the actual person in power of a big family, what you have to consider is stable development, and opportunistic things are no longer suitable. Although it is easy to miss some good opportunities, it is not impossible to lose everything in one careless move.

It can't be said that they have no vision, but the growth path of geniuses is already bumpy, and the more geniuses, the more they fall.

In the center of the banquet hall.

A woman with short hair around her ears was sitting thoughtfully, wandering off to nowhere.

Sometimes he smiles, sometimes he frowns...

Until Yin Xuehou's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting her thoughts.

"It's over?"

Ji Qing's heart trembled slightly, did he finally have to make a choice?

She put her hand on the table lightly, shook it without a trace, propped up her body, and slowly stood up.

Then, step by step, he slowly walked towards the edge of the banquet hall.

The Immortals present were actually paying attention to their situation, but they were all talking to each other on the bright side.

Ji Qing's expression kept changing and he kept struggling.

This section of the road, she walked very slowly, without any urging, it seemed like a century had passed.

Her footsteps gradually became firmer from the erratic at the beginning, and her lowered head was lifted up. No one knew what kind of ideological struggle she had experienced in just a few minutes.

Seeing the expression between her brows, Hong felt a faint sense of uneasiness.

"Qingqing, speak out your thoughts." Yin Xuehou led the approaching Ji Qing to his side.

Seeing this, Shi Yan looked at Yin Xuehou, "Let the two of them talk by themselves."

Yin Xuehou nodded, and returned to his seat with Shi Yan.

"Brother Hong, I'm sorry." There seemed to be a clear spring in Ji Qing's eyes, which aroused pity.

She lowered her head slightly: "I have to make a choice. Love is important, but some things are more important than love. This is what you told me."

Hong smiled wryly, "Have you already decided?"

Although he saw Ji Qing walking step by step, he already knew it in his heart, he knew that no matter what efforts he put in, it would be in vain.

Because Hong understands Ji Qing as much as she understands herself, her determination to become a superpower is no less than her desire for love, and love is her only weakness.

Ji Qing bit her lips tightly, as if she had exhausted all her strength, nodded, and looked seriously at the man in front of her, who was also the man she loved the most.

"I hope you can realize your goals and dreams." Hong Shihuai smiled, "At the same time, I also want to say...sorry for disturbing you during this time."

After finishing speaking, Hong turned around and walked towards Shiyan.

Hong Ben is a decisive person. There is no need to entangle with what is already doomed. It's just this little setback that can't affect his state of mind.
