Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7362

Chapter 7276: Golden Star

“No, not at all.” Wei Shendao shook his head, then continued, “Although it didn’t violate any regulations, your Star Puppet is indeed too overpowered. You only provided it with a platform, yet this Star Puppet can directly carry out the Emperor Heaven Plan on your behalf.”

“How can you say the Star Puppet is overpowered? That sounds like boasting. In reality, I mostly multitask to complete both plans to this extent.” Li Tianming smiled, then continued, “You could have let others control the Star Puppet, but they don’t have my strategic thinking, so they couldn’t do it.”

“You’re right.” Wei Shendao shook his head, somewhat envious, “I don’t know how your brain works. You can strategize from afar and have explosive cultivation talent.”

Li Tianming smiled, “My talent is decent, and with diligence, that’s enough.”

In fact, Li Tianming didn’t worry about the Emperor Heaven Plan at all; he was just waiting to reap the rewards.

All of this was thanks to General An Ning, the spirit of Taiyi Mountain.

Of course, he couldn’t reveal this directly to Wei Shendao, so he could only attribute An Ning’s achievements to himself.

The main reason is that An Ning’s performance is becoming increasingly extraordinary!

From a ten-star Grand Governor to a hundred-star, how would you explain reaching a thousand-star, or even a Saintly Grand Governor?

Compared to a star puppet with extremely high intelligence and defensive artifact-level capabilities, Li Tianming’s ability to multitask is even less coveted, and such things are impossible to covet.

After all, they are innate, and people with such abilities do exist, just not as outstanding as Li Tianming.

Wei Shendao seemed to accept Li Tianming’s statement and smiled, “If you can achieve the goal of becoming a hundred-star Grand Governor within a thousand years, you will have almost reached the fastest advancement speed in the history of the Heavenly Emperor Sect. The key is that you can multitask without wasting time, which is truly impressive!”

“I have to thank Governor Wei for his cooperation. Otherwise, even if I had the ability, without someone to give me this opportunity, I wouldn’t be able to grasp both major plans,” Li Tianming said with a smile and a fist salute.

There was an element of politeness in this, but it was also the truth.

There aren’t many fair things in the world. Although applying for multiple challenges simultaneously is allowed by the rules, if Li Tianming encounters a Grand Governor who is envious of his abilities, he might be deliberately sabotaged.

Wei Shendao definitely harbors malice towards Li Tianming, a fact Li Tianming can clearly see.

Moreover, through his deductions, he roughly knows that she was instigated by the Li Imperial Clan.

But at least in this matter, she truly hasn’t hindered him, completely opening the door for Li Tianming to come and go as he pleases.

During their interactions, Li Tianming gradually discerned from her expressions that while Wei Shendao’s initial malice was quite strong, her attitude changed after realizing how difficult Li Tianming was to deal with.

After all, the Li Imperial Clan is a behemoth, and Jiang Feiling, behind Li Tianming, is also a behemoth to Wei Shendao.

Before, she might have thought Li Tianming lacked depth and could be easily manipulated.

But now, Li Tianming’s true backer has emerged, coupled with his unpredictable intelligence capabilities, as well as his own strength and talent, making it no longer easy for Wei Shendao to deal with him.

Therefore, she became increasingly hesitant and conflicted. If she had a choice, she would definitely choose to leave immediately and not participate in this powerful figure’s game!

Otherwise, she could easily become cannon fodder and gain nothing!

Currently, Li Tianming can handle those petty actions, and he also needs the back door opened by Wei Shendao to facilitate things for him.

Therefore, even though he knows most of the intelligence, he pretends to know nothing.

In Wei Shendao’s eyes, their grudge is limited to when Li Tianming and the young emperor were vying for the Emperor’s Path, and he chose to abandon Li Tianming’s path.

“The most important thing now is to continue executing the Emperor’s Heaven Plan. Even without Wei Shendao, the Li clan will still find others to harass us, so fully utilizing their value is the best choice for us,” Aurora whispered in Li Tianming’s ear.

Li Tianming completely agreed with this statement.

Time passed quickly, and soon Wei Shendao handed a large stack of challenge letters to Li Tianming.

It was clear that over a hundred of them were level eight star systems!

“To have such ambition under the Emperor’s command, and to be so confident in your ability to accomplish it, if word got out, it would be laughable… But this person is you, at least I believe it,” Wei Shendao said with a slight smile.

“In that case, I won’t disturb Governor Wei’s work any longer. I’ll take these back immediately to launch the Hundred-Star Grand Governor plan,” Li Tianming said with a hearty laugh.

“Alright, go ahead,” Wei Shendao waved dismissively, then sat back down, seemingly to continue her business.

But before Li Tianming left, she couldn’t help but look up, staring at his retreating figure for a long time.

She frowned, and her eyes revealed a deep, conflicted emotion…

…

After leaving the Emperor’s Pavilion, Li Tianming quickly returned to the Burning Spirit Realm via the Giant Source Line Stack.

Upon returning to the Burning Spirit Realm, Li Tianming was wondering why it was so empty.

Suddenly!

A golden star appeared from the horizon, seemingly traversing countless distances in an instant, before crashing heavily into Li Tianming’s arms!

“Ugh!” Li Tianming stumbled from the impact, then reached out to hug it, saying helplessly, “Are you trying to kill your old man? Where’s your mother?”

The golden star kept rubbing against Li Tianming’s chest, almost chafing a gash.

“I almost forgot, you can’t even talk yet,” Li Tianming said with a slight smile.

But at this moment, the more he couldn’t see what it would look like after it grew up, the more anticipation grew for it.

“In the future, perhaps you can become a handsome monarch like me?” Li Tianming opened his large hand to stroke the golden star.

But at this moment, the golden star, which had been rubbing against his chest affectionately, suddenly rose up, as if raising its head.

From this posture, it seemed that it was somewhat unconvinced!

“What, you want to become even more handsome than me?” Li Tianming glared at it.

Between Li Tianming and the golden star, one silently tumbling up and down, the other incessantly chattering, they could communicate almost flawlessly!

This scene stunned Sui Shenyao.

“You can do that… no wonder you’re father and son!” she exclaimed.

However, after the two had spent a short time together, another golden light flew in from the horizon.

To be precise, it was a beautiful golden figure!

“Brother!”

Her voice arrived before she did!
