"Damn, the peak of the Eighth Order Great Emperor is so strong!"
The Ice River Giant Beast clone felt the surging power within its body, clenched its right fist, and smacked its lips.
Then, the Ice River Giant Beast clone's gaze fell upon the main body, "Main body, fight me!"
Hiss~
The sudden attack startled the Elf clone. Was the Wo Ri first clone trying to cause trouble by attacking the main body?
Bang~!
Before the Ice River Giant Beast clone could even draw its Ice Profound Sword, it was sent flying by Ye Xuan's main body with a single palm strike, crashing into a towering giant tree dozens of feet away.
Elf clone, "......"
"Wo Ri, the main body is so strong!!"
Gulping, it had originally thought the first clone was already powerful enough. It seemed the main body's combat power might be enough to kill a Ninth Order Great Emperor.
The Ice River Giant Beast clone's mouth twitched. Damn it, to be defeated instantly by the main body!
Damn it!
Ye Xuan glanced at the disheveled Ice River Giant Beast clone, "I intended to distribute the top-grade Emperor Crystals from Futu to you two. Since Ice River doesn't want it, Ba Xuan, this is your share."
With that, Ye Xuan gave the 3000 top-grade Emperor Crystals to the Elf clone, leaving the Ice River Giant Beast clone dumbfounded on the spot.
"Uh....."
"Main body, I was wrong~"
The Ice River Giant Beast clone was no longer calm. What a joke!
3000 top-grade Emperor Crystals, the Ice River Giant Beast clone truly wanted to slap itself right now. Damn it, what was it thinking just now, attacking the main body? Now the retribution has arrived.
That was 3000 top-grade Emperor Crystals!
"Hmph~"
Ye Xuan didn't indulge this clone. As his first clone, it lacked any sense of being a clone, serving it right!
A short while later.
Ye Xuan also upgraded the King-level spaceships of the Ice River Giant Beast clone and the Elf clone to Emperor-level spaceships, to be prepared for future situations.
"Scram~"
Ye Xuan's main body glanced at the two clones and directly slapped them away, along with their spaceships.
After doing all this, he flashed and swept towards the courtyard.
Silence returned to the place, only the cold wind blew, as if nothing had happened. However, the messy scene at the site constantly testified that a fierce battle had just taken place here.
...........
Half an hour later.
In the courtyard, Ilif and others were nervously conversing with someone. This person was Dai Liubai, who had just presided over the auction.
"General Ye, you're finally here."
Tu Meng saw Ye Xuan and rushed forward to greet him. "Guest Elder Liubai has been waiting here for a long time."
"Oh!?"
Upon hearing Tu Meng's words, Ye Xuan looked around and his gaze then fell upon Dai Liubai. He had just traded sixty thousand top-grade Emperor Crystals with this person. He wondered what Ilif and others would think if they knew.
"Hehe, no harm done."
Dai Liubai saw Ye Xuan arrive and wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled warmly. "I had nothing to do, so I came to represent the Star River Empire in inviting Ye Xuan to become a guest elder of the Star River Empire."
Tu Meng and others, "!!!!"
What!?
Guest elder of the Star River Empire? This... Dai Liubai came, and he actually wants to invite General Ye to join the guest elders of the Star River Empire, my heavens?
"That's right."
Seeing the astonishment of Ilif and others, Dai Liubai continued, "Ye Xuan's performance in this planet ranking competition was outstanding, so the Star River Empire is making an exception."
"Of course, upon becoming a guest elder of the Star River Empire, Ye Xuan will receive preferential treatment equivalent to a peak Eighth Order Great Emperor. He will receive 500 top-grade Emperor Crystals annually, and his daily activities will not be overly restricted. He only needs to come to the rescue when the Star River Empire encounters danger."
"Naturally, if he takes on other positions within the Star River Empire, he will receive corresponding remuneration."
He paused and looked at Ilif, "In addition, if Ye Xuan becomes a guest elder of the Star River Empire, Atlantis Star will also receive 100 top-grade Emperor Crystals in funding from the Star River Empire annually. Furthermore, the Star River Empire will send personnel to help Atlantis Star be promoted to a high-level planet..."
Boom!!!
As these words were spoken, Ilif and the others were shaken.
My heavens!
Atlantis Star will receive a hundred top-grade Emperor Crystals annually, and they will also help Atlantis Star be promoted to a high-level planet. This???
Following that, everyone's gaze fell on Ye Xuan.
"Ding, Host has triggered a random mission: Become a guest elder of the Star River Empire, and demand 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals annually!"
"Mission Choice 1: Accept the mission, gain tenfold rebate, with a rebate cap of 300,000 Star River Coins, and an additional 500 top-grade Emperor Crystals!"
"Mission Choice 2: Reject the mission, wealth will be reduced by 30%!"
Just as Ye Xuan was about to speak, the system's voice sounded in his ear as expected. Clearly, another wave of missions had been triggered. However, upon seeing the system's mission, Ye Xuan was stunned.
Wo Ri!
Is this system trying to trick him? Dai Liubai had clearly stated that 500 top-grade Emperor Crystals was already the limit for an Eighth Order Great Emperor. The system wants him to demand 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals, isn't that a bit too insane?
"This..."
He complained in his heart, but his face showed a slight frown. "It's not impossible to become a guest elder of the Star River Empire, but I have a condition."
Tu Meng and others, "........"
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, Tu Meng and his party were stunned. Damn it, they are extending an olive branch to invite you, and you are making demands?
Oh!?
Dai Liubai was different. His eyes lit up. "May I know what Ye Xuan's condition is?"
"This..."
"It's actually very simple, which is, if I join as a guest elder of the Star River Empire, I want 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals annually."
Tu Meng and the group, "!!!!"
Annually, 8... 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals, you bastard!
This guy actually dares to ask for the moon.
"800 top-grade Emperor Crystals??"
Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, Dai Liubai's brows furrowed. He pondered for a moment. "I cannot make this decision. I will ask Lord Moyu to instruct me!"
With that, Dai Liubai contacted Moyu via his communication device and quickly received a response, his face filled with shock.
"Junior Ye!"
"Lord Moyu has agreed. He said as long as Junior Ye joins as a guest elder of the Star River Empire, he can receive 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals annually."
"Is that so."
Ye Xuan heard this and smiled slightly. "Since that is the case, I am honored to become a guest elder of the Star River Empire."
Everyone, "Uh......"
Honored??
This statement, how does it sound so fake? Isn't this guy after the treatment of top-grade Emperor Crystals?
And he says it so nobly, truly exasperating!!
Dai Liubai saw this and his mouth twitched slightly. Then, with a flip of his right hand, he produced 800 spatial bags and handed them to Ye Xuan. "Junior Ye, oh no, Guest Elder Ye, this is your annual reward as a guest elder, totaling 800 top-grade Emperor Crystals, along with a guest elder token."
"Good."
Ye Xuan took the spatial bag. At this moment, it also signified that Ye Xuan had become one of the guest elders of the Star River Empire, and also the guest elder with the lowest cultivation realm in the history of the Star River Empire.
Tu Meng and his group gulped. Damn it, the Star River Empire actually agreed to General Ye's outrageous demand??
