Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7009

Chapter 6819: Him!

When Jiuding entered the private room and saw Jiuyuan’s expression, coupled with his own loss to Li Tianming, he felt a little guilty.

He said, “This Li Tianming is indeed skilled; his strength is even slightly greater than mine. I was the one who couldn’t defeat him.”

“It’s not your fault. It’s all that damned Li Tianming’s fault. He’s like a disgusting bug, impossible to kill, always making people sick,” Jiuyuan said coldly.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, her brows relaxed. “However, he seems to have noticed Li Tianming. It seems this bug is about to crawl into places it shouldn’t be…”

Jiuding was slightly taken aback, and asked with some surprise, “You mean, ‘that person’ has already noticed this outsider?”

Jiuyuan nodded, without saying anything more.

However, mentioning that person conjured up a heroic figure in Jiuyuan’s mind, and a blush unconsciously appeared on this usually icy beauty’s face, revealing a hint of girlish infatuation.

Her long, flowing, nine-colored hair was adorned with delicate gemstones at the corners of her eyebrows, adding to her allure. Her eyes held a glittering galaxy, and her figure was perfectly proportioned, like a sculpted work of art.

She rested her chin on her hands and said, “If we can get him to intervene, Li Tianming definitely won’t be able to continue his arrogance.”

This charming yet mature air of Jiu Yuan was something she only displayed towards that one person.

Seeing her now, even her uncle, Jiu Ding, couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, “What a beauty! No wonder the Li imperial family took a liking to her.”

Of course, he only sighed.

Jiu Ding continued, “Then you should try to whisper in his ear as much as possible, making this outsider more noticeable to him. Otherwise, he might quickly forget about her. This time, we must clean up the bad habits of the outer sect.”

Jiu Yuan glanced at Jiu Ding and said calmly, “Don’t worry, I’m already trying.”

“Oh, right, there’s one more thing. I’ve secured an opportunity for you; you must seize it,” Jiu Yuan said casually.

Upon hearing this, Jiu Ding asked in surprise, “Good niece, is there some good news for your uncle?”

Jiu Yuan slowly said, fiddling with her slender fingers, “He’s recently become interested in galactic conquest and wants to take over an eighth-level galaxy. To achieve this goal, he naturally needs some capable assistants.”

“So, after I learned about this, I recommended you to him. There shouldn’t be any problems, but we still need to have a formal meeting.”

Jiu Ding said excitedly, “Good niece, your uncle didn’t spoil you for nothing when you were young. Thanks to your introduction, I have this opportunity. A formal meeting is only right. When is he free? I’ll come see him anytime.”

Jiu Yuan rolled her eyes and said, “What’s the rush? With me here, do you think you won’t see him? Follow me.”

After saying that, she left the private room, and Jiu Ding followed behind her.

Jiu Ding was clearly an elder, but in front of someone like Jiu Yuan who had climbed the social ladder, he still seemed inferior. However, he was still willing, after all, although his niece was arrogant, she still thought of him when good things came up

.

It can only be said that many people interact more like peers with their youngest elders.

…

After Li Tianming defeated Jiuding, his ranking on the Myriad Emperors Ranking rose significantly.

His final position on the Myriad Emperors Ranking was fifty-fifth!

This was Wei Wuming’s ranking before meeting Li Tianming, now completely replaced by Li Tianming!

Li Tianming stepped down from the Emperor Battle Platform and pondered, “There should still be some room for improvement, but waiting for a worthy opponent is too time-consuming. Let’s stop here for now.”

“Besides, this ranking is sufficient; there’s almost no need to worry about being pushed down.”

After stepping down, countless congratulatory voices surged towards Li Tianming, the thunderous shouts shaking the entire Myriad Emperors Palace!

“Congratulations, Junior Brother Li, on reaching fifty-fifth place!”

“The number one genius of the outer sect, truly deserving of the title!”

The congratulations mainly centered around his talented disciples, such as Yu Shang, Jiang Beichen, Yu Zhao, and Huan Sheng Huan Mie.

The vast majority of them were happy for Li Tianming, congratulating him on his astonishing ranking at such a young age.

Yu Shang chuckled, “With Junior Brother Li here, I’m afraid the other outer sect disciples will be too overwhelmed to even raise their heads.”

Everyone else nodded, deeply agreeing with this statement, without a hint of complaint.

Of course, Huan Sheng was somewhat reluctant to congratulate Li Tianming, but he still offered a few polite words.

Apart from these geniuses from the guardian imperial clans, the other disciples kept a certain distance while also offering their congratulations.

After all, Li Tianming himself was a peerless genius, and he was surrounded by a group of guardian imperial clans, making him a figure of noble status.

Just as Li Tianming was surrounded by a group of people, a group of familiar faces emerged from the crowd.

These people were Mo Yu, Li Muyun, Mo Huan, Zhang Qingqing, Zhao Ziyue, and others.

Of course, Li Mulian was also there, being led by Li Muyun.

Seeing the group of guardian imperial clans surrounding Li Tianming, they all hesitated and did not approach further.

However, Li Tianming took the initiative to walk over and said with a natural smile, “Lord Moyu Tower, Imperial Tutor Li, and everyone else, you’ve come too?”

Li Muyun smiled and said, “Yes, congratulations, Tianming, on taking another big step on your cultivation path. I wish you a smooth road ahead and continuous advancement.”

“Thank you for your blessings, Imperial Tutor Li

,” Li Tianming nodded in gratitude. These people were only concerned about protecting the Imperial Clan; they weren’t at all distant with Li Tianming.

So, Li Tianming took the initiative to approach, and the group began to chat.

A rather subtle atmosphere was spreading.

Apart from Moyu and Zhao Ziyue, and only those Grand Tutor-level experts who already had dealings with Li Tianming and were willing to interact with him, the other experts above that level were still observing.

However, Li Tianming understood the situation and didn’t need to say anything more.

It was normal for these elders and friends who had come along to him to be willing to interact with him; after all, they had a relationship.

What intrigued Li Tianming was why Wei Shendao, Tai Su Hongyan, and the other two powerful guardians of the imperial clans, who had previously had no contact with him, were so suddenly so kind to him after their initial interaction.

Li Tianming could only suppress this question and figure it out later.

After a brief chat with his elders and friends, Li Tianming went to the massive, dark Myriad Emperors Ranking and placed his battle token on it.

A moment later, a vortex appeared on the Myriad Emperors Ranking, spitting out the ‘Listening to the Dao Token’.

Li Tianming pondered as he weighed the Listening Dao Token in his hand, “Now that I’ve achieved my goal of being in the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking, it’s time to fulfill my promise to Governor Wei.”

Just as Li Tianming took out the Communication Star Tower and was about to contact Wei Shendao…

Wei Wuming, who had been defeated by Li Tianming not long ago, actually walked through the crowd and took the initiative to find Li Tianming, with Wei Wuji following behind him.
