The celebration continued, and others also successively presented their congratulatory gifts.
Although they were all fine treasures, with the Extreme Ice Divine Flower and the beginnings of the three-tiered divine artifacts that followed, they inevitably seemed rather ordinary.
However, the act of presenting gifts was never meant to be a competition to see who could send the most precious item; it was fundamentally a gesture of politeness.
Once the gift-giving concluded, the celebration moved to its next phase.
People from various great worlds mingled freely in the grand hall, essentially creating a large-scale networking event.
With a bit of luck, one might leverage this platform to connect with powerful individuals from other great worlds near their own, fostering new alliances.
During this process, aside from the hosts Qian Qingning and Qian Ling, Ye Yun was undoubtedly the most sought-after individual, with everyone eager to win him over.
“Star Lord Ye, it is truly an honor to meet you. We are from the Fengyuan Domain…”
“It is a great pleasure to make your acquaintance, Star Lord Ye. We are from…”
“And us, from the Yueling Domain, have come specifically to toast Star Lord Ye!”
“By the way, Star Lord Ye, are you interested in women…”
Many individuals from other great worlds not only approached the Lingluo Domain with enthusiasm.
Ye Yun, who clearly stood out, also received exceptional treatment. Among them were quite a few Heavenly God level powerhouses, fawning over him.
They hoped that their respective great worlds could have more exchanges with the Tianyu Domain in the future, establishing trade partnerships and progressing together!
The reasons for this were self-evident. Setting aside the inherent strength of the Tianyu Domain itself, the current ambiguous and close relationship with the Lingluo Domain was sufficient to lay the foundation for future meteoric rise.
In other words, even if they couldn't soar to new heights, with the Lingluo Domain's backing, the Tianyu Domain would hold considerable influence within their sphere of influence!
“What a fortunate fellow, relying on such a third-tier divine artifact to curry favor with the Lingluo Domain…”
Only Zhuo Yi, in a corner, watched the highly popular Ye Yun with considerable displeasure in his heart.
But there was nothing he could do. Given the previous conflict, his relationship with this individual had reached a point where reconciliation was virtually impossible.
…
At the same time, while the Lingluo Domain was bustling with its lively celebration,
The atmosphere in the other, the Qianyuan Domain, was somewhat oppressive.
The Lord of Qianyuan Star frowned as he looked at the Heavenly God before him.
“As you said, that divine artifact in that person’s possession? Is it truly that powerful?”
The black-clothed man before him was undoubtedly the Heavenly God-level expert who had recently pursued Qian Ling.
After having one of his arms severely injured by Ye Yun, he had rushed back with all his might and recounted everything that had happened to the Lord of Qianyuan Star, hoping for justice.
He stated with utmost seriousness, “That divine artifact is exceptionally potent, at least a fifth-tier, no, perhaps even a sixth-tier divine artifact!”
“Otherwise, with his cultivation level, it would be absolutely impossible for him to pose such a significant threat to me!”
Although the peak of Star God was just a step away from his Heavenly God level, the gap in strength across a major realm was still quite substantial.
However, after hearing this, the Lord of Qianyuan Star's brow furrowed. After a moment of thought, he sighed and said,
“In that case, let’s just forget about that fellow.”
“Ah? We’re just going to let him go?”
The black-clothed man was somewhat unwilling.
However, the Lord of Qianyuan Star calmly replied, “What else? Pursue him?”
“Do you think an ordinary Star God could possess such a high-quality divine artifact? It is likely that the power behind him is extremely formidable, at least beyond our ability to provoke.”
While his character might not be impeccable, his mind was sharp, and he was extremely cautious.
He dared not provoke individuals who appeared to be unassailable.
What if they ended up offending someone they shouldn't, and a Main God-level expert came knocking on their door? They would have only one outcome: death!
With the matter put this way, the black-clothed man understood that revenge was likely out of the question.
He could only sigh and say, “Lord Star Lord speaks wisely. We can only let it be for now.”
However, in his heart, he held firm to one thought: if that guy ever gave him an opportunity, he would still find a way to deal with him to avenge his severed arm.
Meanwhile, the Lord of Qianyuan Star was pondering the matters concerning the Tianyu Domain, wondering how they were progressing and whether the issues there had been resolved.
Just then, a red figure flew in from a distance and appeared directly in the hall without any prior announcement.
“Lord Star Lord! There is an urgent message!”
Hearing this, the Lord of Qianyuan Star frowned and asked.
“What urgent message requires such haste?”
“It concerns the Lingluo Domain, and it is related to them!”
Upon hearing the name Lingluo Domain, the Lord of Qianyuan Star’s eyebrows immediately shot up.
“Oh? Related to them, do tell…”
…
Back in the Lingluo Domain, the lively celebration soon concluded.
As it wound down and people began to depart, many still approached Ye Yun to bid farewell, all hoping to make a good impression.
Ye Yun had intended to leave as well, but he was called back by Qian Qingning.
“Star Lord Ye, please wait a moment.”
Hearing this, Ye Yun, who was about to leave with his disciples, turned to look at Qian Qingning and feigned confusion, asking.
“Do you still require something?”
“Did you forget? We agreed to have a good chat after the celebration ended.”
Qian Qingning smiled, intending to slip away unnoticed, but Ye Yun, caught off guard, chuckled awkwardly.
He had no choice but to sigh and say, “It seems there was something of that sort…”
Qian Qingning smiled faintly, not calling him out.
“Then, please, this way.”
With that, she led Ye Yun and his two disciples to another small hall.
Compared to the spaciousness of the outer hall, this area was much smaller, but it was more secluded, suitable for intimate conversations.
Qian Qingning sat down casually, and Qian Ling also found a seat nearby, her gaze never leaving Ye Yun.
Ye Yun also sat down with ease, but he deliberately chose a seat opposite them, maintaining a considerable distance.
Qian Qingning said nothing about this, and with a smile, asked.
“I saw many people from other great worlds actively trying to recruit you just now. How did that feel, being so popular?”
“Uh, that…”
Ye Yun spread his hands, his expression one of resigned weariness.
“While it was quite nice, I wish there were fewer people hoping to arrange a marriage alliance with me.”
This was no joke. In fact, among those who had sought to foster closer ties with him, a significant portion had inquired about whether he needed concubines or the like.
As long as he gave his consent, they would immediately prepare them, and they were all paragons of virtue from various great worlds.
Moreover, Ye Yun had even been openly enticed by a female Star Lord from a great world, who seemed to want to devour him on the spot.
