The Redbud Continent was vast and boundless. Between the prefectures, there were many cities, and within every single city, countless Deities came and went.
Between the cities, there were endless layers of mountains.
Li Yue's original location was within the Irondragon City region, and many of these mountains were within it. A few days later, however, he had already left this place and appeared within the Bladethorm City region, which was separated from Irondragon City.
Bladethorm City. The reason why it was so named was because of its geography. It was located between two mountain ranges, in the middle of a canyon between two mountain ranges. It was like a long, curved blade, and so it was named Bladethorm City.
Thousands of kilometers away from Bladethorm City, high up in the air. Li Yue was piloting a metallic lifeform, flying at high speed through the air.
This was a dragonlike metallic lifeform. It was very large, and of a much higher level than the metallic lifeform he had previously used. This was one of Li Yue's spoils of war.
His metallic lifeform had been damaged long ago, having been split in two.
"There aren't many places within Bladethorm City that are worth exploring. There are too many mountains and valleys here. Although it's well hidden, it isn't too far away from the Lake of Death in the Irondragon City region. If someone wants to, they'll be able to find me!"
He couldn't stay in Bladethorm City for too long.
Li Yue wanted to find a quiet, suitable place for training, while at the same time taking a look at the local customs of the Infernal Realm. Thus, he had to find the best, most suitable place.
"In fact, the boundless Sea of Stars is one of the most suitable places. Because the Sea of Stars is covered in dense fog and is vast. No matter if it's finding an island or establishing an underwater abode at the bottom of the sea, it's the best choice!"
His goal on this trip was to leave the Redbud Continent and head to the Stellar Sea.
In addition, Li Yue had always been worried about something.
The Chief Sovereign of Light, Augusta.
Not too long ago, when he was in the Gebados Prison, he had foiled Augusta's plans, and had even forcefully slaughtered Augusta's projection.
But all this time, he hadn't paid much attention to this. The universe was simply too vast, with countless planes. The Infernal Realm alone was boundless. How hard was it to find a single person?
Thus, Li Yue hadn't cared at all about the threat of Augusta's projection being slaughtered.
However, things were different now.
"My battle at the Lake of Death must have been recorded by many people and spread widely!"
"If it was just an ordinary Highgod or Asura-level battle recording, the Sovereigns probably wouldn't care. But if it was a Paragon, it would definitely attract the attention of the Sovereigns."
After all, becoming a Paragon was simply far too difficult. Many Sovereigns and Hegemons had yet to reach the Paragon level in their Laws. The appearance of a Great Perfection Paragon would definitely attract their attention. They would try to recruit the Great Perfection Paragon to become their emissary.
After all, Sovereigns were lofty, exalted figures. There were many things which were inconvenient for them to deal with personally. The Emissaries of the Sovereigns were the spokespersons of the Sovereigns, and they helped them deal with many matters.
The more powerful a Sovereign's Emissary was, the better.
As a result, the appearance of a Great Perfection expert would definitely attract the attention of Overgods. It was exactly because of this that Li Yue chose to leave the crescent castle after his seclusion ended.
This was because he hadn't just offended a Sovereign. Aside from the slain Sovereign's Emissary and the Sovereign's descendant, there was also the even more powerful Chief Sovereign of Light, Augusta.
"If Augusta discovers the scryer recordings of my battles, he will definitely recognize me!"
"If that happens, I'll be in great danger!"
Li Yue knew a bit about Augusta. Aside from his identity as the Chief Sovereign of Light, he was also the second clone of the Chief Sovereign of Fate. It could be said that he was extremely dangerous.
In addition, the Chief Sovereign of Light's personality was incomparably vile to begin with. After learning of Li Yue's whereabouts, it was very likely that he would personally attack.
"The chances of this happening are very high. Perhaps the other Sovereigns wouldn't personally attack for fear of losing face, but this fellow, the Chief Sovereign of Light!"
Li Yue shook his head.
There was nothing for it. This was the nature of the Chief Sovereign of Light's personality. He and the Chief Sovereign of Fate, Orloff, were two unique lifeforms. Orloff was the good side, while Augusta was the evil side.
Clearly, his title was the Chief Sovereign of Light, but he acted like a vile villain. This was quite ironic.
…..
In truth, Li Yue's guess was correct.
The scryer recordings of his battles had been recorded very clearly, and then in a few short years, they had spread throughout the entire Infernal Realm.
Quite a few people had seen these scryer recordings, including many experts, including many Sovereign's Emissaries. Naturally, quite a few Sovereigns had learned of this matter.
At the same time, aside from the Infernal Realm, the other Higher Planes and Divine Planes all began to spread as well.
The Divine Light Plane naturally had them as well.
The Divine Light Plane. In the air above the supreme Divine Light Mountain. Within a luxurious white palace, the Chief Sovereign of Light, Augusta, was dressed in a white robe. His face was rather gloomy as he stared at a crystalline stone mirror in front of him, a sinister look in his eyes.
Within the stone mirror, the scene of Li Yue insta-killing Ionick, who had a defensive Sovereign artifact, was being replayed.
When he saw Li Yue's face, that familiar yet detestable face, he naturally couldn't feel any joy.
"That fellow … that ant who ruined my plans. Back then, he was just a Seven Star Fiend, but after such a short period of time, he actually became a Paragon?"
Augusta could tell at a glance that this scryer recording was real.
Li Yue had stunned Ionick to the point where he couldn't even move. He had easily insta-killed him. In Augusta's eyes, this was the power of a Paragon's Will. The power of Will allowed one to control everything. Naturally, killing a mere Sovereign's Emissary was simple.
This was how terrifying a Paragon was, a supreme existence amongst Deities.
But … why did it have to be Li Yue?
It was hard to imagine how this fellow, Li Yue, had become a Paragon in such a short period of time. It didn't make any sense at all.
"How long has it been …"
Augusta's face was gloomy. Because of Beirut, he had never had a good impression of anyone from the Yulan continent.
If it hadn't been for the fact that Beirut had seized the corpses of the Four Divine Beasts and their Sovereign sparks, he, Augusta, would have had four Sovereign sparks.
In the past, he had painstakingly schemed for so long, and had worked so hard to kill the Four Divine Beasts and the four Sovereigns. But in the end, everything had been for naught. How could he not be furious?
But Beirut was too crafty. He hid in a material plane and refused to come out, while his true body was unable to enter a material plane. All he could do was rely on his clones and projections to be humiliated by Beirut.
As for Li Yue, this person who had ruined his plans to destroy the Yulan continent, he was even more detestable.
"Men, transmit my orders. Tell Nicardia to find this fellow in the scryer recording, and then … banish him!"
"No!" Augusta shook his head. "Find him, then delay him. When the time comes, I will personally act!"
He sent mentally, sending his voice to the Divine Light Mountain and into the ears of a Twelve-Winged Angel.
"Yes, Chief Sovereign!"
The Angel nodded, then left.
