Invincible Young Master in the City-Chapter 1518 - 1514: Lady Su Nu and the Divine Lord

With Ye Fan’s cultivation level, killing these men would be effortless, but he didn’t do it, as he wanted to rightfully obtain the girl.

He could even resort to threats to obtain her, for he was infatuated with her to the point of no return, and he didn’t want such a girl to fall into someone else’s hands. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Stop!" Just as Ye Fan continued using spiritual energy to effortlessly suppress the men, causing them to be like rocks being toyed with, an old voice came from afar.

To his surprise, a cultivator who wasn’t even in the Foundation Establishment Stage had flown in on a sword.

Ye Fan had never seen a cultivator in the Qi Cultivation Stage who had the ability to fly with a sword. It wasn’t until the old man got closer that he realized the sword was a low-grade Spiritual Artifact with flight capabilities, rather than the result of the old man’s high cultivation.

Since the tribe warriors had not caused any substantial harm to Ye Fan, he knew that the old man’s words, "Stop," were actually directed at him.

Ye Fan indeed stopped; he felt that the only way to get the girl was through threats, but he was still willing to engage in direct negotiation with the people of the Jianghuo Star tribe.

The old man descended from the sky, landing about twenty meters away from Ye Fan and the others. At this time, the tribe’s warriors got up again, but they did not rush forward to battle to the death with Ye Fan. Instead, they stood behind the old man, watching Ye Fan vigilantly, seemingly ready to fight to the end with these intruders at any moment.

The old man, with white hair, appeared to be seventy or eighty years old by Earth standards. However, the lifespan of the Jianghuo Star people is different from Earth’s, and their way of measuring time is also different.

After all, the rotation and revolution times of Jianghuo Star differ from Earth’s, and the distinction between day and night here is only due to the different angles of Jianghuo Star’s revolution. The alternation of day and night here is actually equivalent to a year’s time.

"Who are you?" The old man asked in a questioning tone, "Do you know that since time immemorial, no one has disturbed the peace in our Ar tribe territory? This is also where the lifeline of Jianghuo lies. We have been guarding the last line of defense for Jianghuo for generations. Do you want to see Jianghuo Star destroyed?"

The Jiuyou Su Girl said sternly, "Jianghuo Star is merely a planet inhabited by humans. Destroying it would be a piece of cake for us, wouldn’t it?"

"You are... Su Nu Niang Niang?" The old man scrutinized the Jiuyou Su Girl and suddenly asked.

The Jiuyou Su Girl was taken aback by the question. The old man’s tone was not hostile but rather respectful, making her hesitate to just wipe these people out.

Ye Fan asked, "Do you know her?"

"Indeed, we are the guardian tribe of Jianghuo Star. Our Ar tribe has been living here for tens of thousands of years. Our task here, besides guarding, is to wait!" The old man’s tone suddenly became gentle, "The statue of Su Nu Niang Niang has always been enshrined in the Guardian’s Hall because it was Su Nu who created Jianghuo Star. Everyone here is considered a believer of Su Nu. Since Su Nu has come, the person beside her must be the Divine Lord!"

Ye Fan frowned, "I’m not any Divine Lord; I’m just here looking for someone!"

"The Divine Lord will come to Jianghuo Star together with Su Nu Niang Niang. This is a prophecy left over from thousands of years ago on Jianghuo Star. Even if we, the Ar tribe, forget our own names, we cannot forget our mission. The arrival of the Divine Lord and Su Nu is our hope. Jianghuo Star may be freed from the control of the Demon Star and will no longer endure a long period of darkness. The power of Jianghuo Star has begun to deteriorate; the Divine Lord and Su Nu are here to save us!"

As he spoke, the old man was moved to tears, kneeling to Ye Fan with utmost reverence.

Following his lead, everyone behind the old man also knelt, paying their respects to Ye Fan and the Jiuyou Su Girl, no longer with the previous hostility.

"Su Nu, what’s going on? Did you create Jianghuo Star?" Ye Fan asked.

Su Nu quickly replied, "Master, I have never created any planet, not even I know what’s going on!"

"If you didn’t create this place, why is there a statue of you here? How could they recognize you at a glance? Never mind, let’s not discuss this. Step back for now!" Ye Fan hadn’t expected the Ar tribe of Jianghuo Star to regard him as the Divine Lord. This actually saved him some trouble but also brought new troubles.

The trouble saved was negotiating for that stubborn girl from the Ar tribe.

Since he was already considered the Divine Lord of the Ar tribe, taking an Ar tribe girl with him was just a formality.

But he also understood that since he was recognized as the Divine Lord, he had to help not only the Ar tribe but possibly all of Jianghuo Star. Since the people of Jianghuo Star had embraced him as their master, he couldn’t simply slaughter their people; that wasn’t his style.

"Get up and let’s talk in... the hall you mentioned!" Ye Fan said.

"Yes, Divine Lord!" The old man stood and looked at Ye Fan, seemingly still having some doubts.

After all, from beginning to end, only he claimed Ye Fan was the Divine Lord, and Ye Fan’s lack of denial was a tacit admission, but some matters always needed verification.

Another middle-aged man in his forties from the Ar tribe stepped forward, speaking in the language of Earth’s Huaxia people, "Clan Leader, what makes you think he’s the Divine Lord? We have always worshipped the goddess Su Nu. There is no proof that this woman is indeed Su Nu Niang Niang. It could be false, someone deceitfully posing as them to infiltrate the altar hall!"

"Silence!" the old man snapped, "Are you questioning my judgment?"

The two conversed in the Earth language, indicating they did not want the people behind them to know what was being said, avoiding letting them realize there was a dispute.

Su Nu sneered, "Anyone who dares question my identity hasn’t survived. You’re courting death!"

The Jiuyou Su Girl was not a woman of good temper. When she acted willfully, she disregarded everything else, especially since the man before her possessed no real cultivation.

Seen as the Jiuyou Su Girl extended her hand, the forty-something man was directly knocked into the sky. The Ar tribe members present were dumbfounded; it was their first time realizing just how fragile humans could be, easily toyed with by others.

After about two minutes, the man descended from the sky. When he landed before the crowd, his clothes appeared to have been burned away, yet he was unharmed thanks to Ye Fan utilizing spiritual energy to catch him.

"Do not be disrespectful!" Ye Fan reprimanded Su Nu.
