The Master of the Three Realms
"I didn't expect someone would still be cleaning my room after all this time."
A woman in a plain dress stood in a simple bedroom, a faint smile on her face. Xiao Yan followed closely behind her like a shadow.
"Father arranged for it to be cleaned."
"Him?" She sneered, then pursed her lips disdainfully. "Little bro, even if you said you'd arranged for it to be cleaned, I'd more or less believe you. But you say it was him? Do you think I'd believe him? "
"Big Sister, it really was Father who arranged it. After you left, he sent people to search the entire God World. He even went to the Demonfolk and the Devil Race. Father personally went to look for you, but he couldn't find you. After that, he sat in your room for a whole year. By the time he came out, his hair was all white. "
Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask. The woman smiled calmly, but her eyes didn't show the slightest bit of emotion. She simply raised her brows in surprise.
"Is that so? Then …. Serves him right!"
With that, she pulled out a ring from under the bed and slipped it onto her finger. Then she turned around and smiled at Xiao Yan.
"Alright, I didn't refuse your kind invitation, so I didn't reject your invitation. It's getting late; it's about time I left. "
"Big Sister, are you really leaving? Aren't you going to see Father? "Xiao Yan furrowed his brows.
"There's nothing to see. Let's just leave it at that." She smiled calmly, then turned around and said, "Yang Jian's heavenly tribulation in the lower realms was erased, right? It's best if you don't get involved in this matter. Just think of it as a favor from your big sister."
She drifted out of the Xiao Family estate. Xiao Yan stood in front of the bedroom door and watched her leave. He stayed there for a long time.
A long while passed.
"Men."
With a low, deep voice, several people appeared by Xiao Yan's side.
"My Lord."
"The woman in the plain dress who just appeared here, go and protect her in secret. Find out where she's staying, then come back and report to me. No one is allowed to mention her arrival to anyone else. Otherwise, they'll be killed without mercy. "
"Yes sir."
The people before him bowed and nodded. At that moment, Xiao Yan recalled the woman's request.
"Tell everyone who went to investigate Yang Jian to come back. Also, send people to keep an eye on the ascension pond. If they see Yang Jian ascend, they can help him out in secret. "
"Yes sir."
"Alright, you're all dismissed."
The people in front of the door all nodded and disappeared. Only Xiao Yan sighed softly and turned to look at the bedroom behind him.
He shook his head, turned, and left.
…..
No one would have thought that the tit-for-tat situation would turn out like this. The immortals in the pure white space all looked at the scene in front of them in a daze, feeling like their brains weren't working properly.
Ye Zichen, standing nearby, could clearly sense Gu Zichen's chaotic breathing. He furrowed his brows at Gu Zichen and couldn't help but transmit.
"What happened to you?"
"Ye:" You's "is" Heaven "and" is "Yang's't".
"Ye" "Chen" Of Chen's and "Yang't"'ve, "." "You'll have to find your own path. In an hour, you'll have to ascend to the Higher Realms. You may be a big shot in the Lower Realm, but when you go up there, you may not even be considered as a middle level figure. You must be careful, understand? "
You might be a big shot in the Lower Three Realms, but once you ascend, you might not even be a mid-level character. You have to be careful, understand? "
"Go back and say goodbye to your friends and family. Perhaps you won't be able to see them for the next few hundred thousand years."
Whoosh.
There was a flash of light, and Yang Jian, who'd yet to come to his senses, disappeared from their field of vision.
The immortals watched Yang Jian leave. Most of their gazes were filled with envy. Ascending to the Higher Realms was the dream of most of them.
Although Yang Jian was a great immortal of the Heavenly Court, in the eyes of Ziwei, Suiren, and the others, he was nothing more than a junior.
They never would've guessed that Yang Jian would ascend before them. This was a huge blow to their confidence.
Gu Zichen let out a disappointed sigh, then watched as Gu Zichen waved his right hand. Yang Jian's shattered chairs reappeared in their original positions, undamaged.
"Sit."
The major powers of the Three Realms returned to their original seats. Before long, they discovered that a stone table had suddenly appeared in front of them. There was a ballot box on top of it.
They'd never seen such a thing before, but when they thought about it, this was truly different from the past. This was especially true because the person who'd always been behind the scenes had stepped onto the stage.
"Senior, what is the meaning of this?"
After witnessing Gu Zichen and Yang Jian's confrontation, the North Pole Emperor had a profound understanding of the man's true strength.
Even Yang Jian, who'd ascended to godhood, was no match for him. Just how strong was he?
There was no shame in addressing an expert like this as "senior."
"In the past, we've always received rewards based on our rankings, but this time is a bit different. We'll be voting."
Gu Zichen narrowed his eyes at the immortals and smiled.
"The position of Master of the Three Realms has been empty for far too long. Furthermore, given your current situation, you really do need someone to take charge. The purpose of this Struggle is to select the Master of the Three Realms. The selection process is based on the Reputation Leaderboard. In other words, the people standing here right now will vote. The final candidate will be chosen based on the number of votes cast. Do you have any objections? "
The immortals glanced at each other in astonishment.
The Master of the Three Realms.
This hadn't happened in hundreds of thousands of years. Since the Three Realms had developed so smoothly, they'd practically forgotten about the Master of the Three Realms.
But now ….
"Senior, the ancient texts have recorded this. The Master of the Three Realms reappears, and the Three Realms face a crisis of life and death. Now you're suddenly saying …. "The Flame Emperor's gaze was solemn." Could it be that the Three Realms have already reached that point? "
"Don't tell me you don't think so?"
Gu Zichen's eyes narrowed into slits as he swept his gaze over the various immortals.
"Just look at all the turmoil you've experienced in the past few years. Haven't you sensed anything strange? I'm not trying to scare you. Right now, your Three Realms face a crisis of life and death. You need someone to take charge. "
"This …." The immortals were astonished.
"Alright, there's a fierce battle going on outside, so don't waste any more time. If no one has any objections, hurry up and start voting. "
He snapped his fingers, and a voting card appeared in each of the immortals' hands.
"Let's begin."
Just as the immortals were hesitating, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd. They saw a bald youth walk up the stairs.
