High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 691

Chapter 691: Chapter 372 Commander Li Yuan
 

“Alright, the three of you may leave,” Li Yuan instructed, “From now on, there is no need to see me specially other than for regular business reports. If there is anything important, I will naturally come to see you.”

“Yes,” Yue Hui, the Star Master, and the other two replied respectfully and quickly departed.

In the corridor, only Li Yuan was left alone.

“The Grand Hall Master’s power and influence are indeed substantial,” Li Yuan mused silently, “The Starfire Martial Hall even towers above all nations.”

Only as his own martial cultivation and strength surged, and his authority increased, did Li Yuan truly understand the foundation of what the Starfire Martial Hall was.

At its core, Starfire, Starry Sky, and Black Stone, these three Great Martial Halls formed the Seven Star Alliance… and the multitude of nations were nothing but subordinates to the Seven Star Alliance.

Ordinary Flying Heaven Warriors were often loyal to a particular nation.

But anyone who reached the peak of Flying Heaven would typically join one of the Martial Halls, because the best treasures and channels, as well as many Star Techniques and Secret Manuals, were directly controlled by the Martial Halls.

And the Demigods, they all belonged to one of the three Great Martial Halls.

“The power of Demigods allows them to transcend nations,” Li Yuan thought to himself, “Now, it’s time to meet these Demigods of Blue Star.”

Whoosh!

Li Yuan’s figure moved, and he arrived at a higher floor in accordance with directions, reaching the meeting room at the end of the corridor.

The meeting room wasn’t large, and inside was a round table surrounded by many luxurious chairs upon which six figures sat waiting, each exuding a formidable aura.

The main seat at the round table, however, remained suspended and unoccupied.

Upon seeing Li Yuan enter the meeting room, the six figures all rose to their feet.

“Welcome, Commander Li Yuan,” the red-haired Caucasian man sitting beside the main seat said with a smile.

“Welcome, Commander Li Yuan.”

“Welcome.”

“Haha, I knew Commander Li Yuan would rise to prominence when he swept through the Second Level Star Realms two years ago, but to think it would be so fast—we are all truly impressed,” the burly bald man in Black Armor laughed heartily.

“He is formidable indeed,” another elder in extravagant clothing said with a smile, “Though young, Commander Li Yuan campaigned across the Ming Xu Star Realm, sweeping through numerous Second Level Star Realms, saving the Lantie Star in crisis, slaying Demigods… such dazzling achievements have earned you immense merit for our entire civilization. You truly deserve your position as Commander.”

Before Li Yuan could speak, the assembly of Demigods began to speak up, showing great enthusiasm.

This scene left Li Yuan slightly surprised in his heart.

Is everyone so enthusiastic?

“You all are my seniors; your praise is too generous,” Li Yuan said with a smile. “I am merely fulfilling my duty as the Blue Star Commander.”

“Li Yuan,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine said with a smile, “Let me introduce them to you one by one.”

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

“This is Demigod Dantai Lie,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine said.

“Grand Hall Master,” Dantai Lie’s virtual image, a short-haired middle-aged man, bowed slightly.

“Demigod Dantai, there’s no need for such formality. You have long guarded the entrance to the Wanhan Star Realm, which I am well aware of,” Li Yuan said with a smile, “I am friends with Dantai Feng… and I remember the favor from those earlier days.”

Back then, Dantai Lie had given Li Yuan a Storage Treasure worth over a thousand Seven Stars Points.

To the current Li Yuan, it was nothing much.

But back then, it was a significant gift.

“Haha, I’m sure under the Grand Hall Master’s leadership, our Blue Star will only become more prosperous,” Dantai Lie said, beaming with smiles. The small kindness he had shown back then, remembered by Li Yuan, brought him great happiness.

“This is Demigod Chi Song,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine gestured towards the elder in lavish attire.

“Grand Hall Master,” Chi Song the Demigod bowed slightly.

Li Yuan nodded.

Of the seven Demigods on Blue Star, Bai Shan Semi-Divine, Dantai Lie the Demigod, and Chi Song the Demigod were all part of the Starfire Martial Hall.

Hence, they all addressed Li Yuan as ‘Grand Hall Master.’

“This is Demigod Ha Lin, the Starry Sky Martial Hall Master of Blue Star,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine pointed toward the bald man in Black Armor.

“Commander,” Ha Lin the Demigod said with a laugh.

“Demigod Ha Lin controls the Starry Sky Martial Hall and manages the virtual network; I will need your support in the future,” Li Yuan said with a smile.

“Commander is the Leader of Blue Star, and I am under the Leader’s command,” Ha Lin the Demigod said with a laugh. “Just give the order, and I will obey.”

Li Yuan’s heart stirred slightly; the stance of Demigod Ha Lin was rather unusual.

“Li Yuan.”

“This is the Starry Sky Martial Hall Master of Blue Star, Demigod Soylo,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine pointed to the red-haired Caucasian man, “One of the strongest Demigods on our Blue Star, his power is not inferior to mine.”

“Demigod Soylo, in dealing with the affairs of Blue Star, I will need your assistance,” Li Yuan said.

Li Yuan knew well in his heart, the truly important figures on Blue Star were none other than Demigod Soylo and Bai Shan Semi-Divine.

These two had the potential to threaten him.

The other Demigods? They were merely at the Initial Rank of Semi-Divine, not worth his concern.

Especially Demigod Soylo, who before him, had been the ‘Acting Blue Star Leader.’ Could there be any resentment in his heart?

“The Commander is too polite, I shall do my duty,” Soylo the Demigod said with considerable courtesy.

“Commander, I am Demigod Selvie,” the elegant woman in a Black Garment bowed.

Li Yuan nodded with a smile, Demigod Selvie was the only female Demigod of Blue Star, and her reputation was indeed significant.

“If I remember correctly, there should be another Demigod,” Li Yuan glanced around, “Isn’t Demigod Kuba here yet?”

The people present turned their gaze towards Demigod Soylo.

“Commander,” Soylo the Demigod respectfully said, “Demigod Kuba has recently consolidated a Law and has just advanced to the Middle Rank of Semi-Divine, and thus has been in Concealed Cultivation… He is currently at a critical juncture, which is why he could not attend the Demigod Council. I hope the Commander will forgive this.”

“Oh? Middle Rank of Semi-Divine? That’s good news,” Li Yuan said with a smile, seemingly convinced.

“In Concealed Cultivation?”

“Didn’t he break through last year? He was still at the meeting last month. Isn’t it too coincidental that on the very day the Commander attends his first meeting, he is absent?” the bald man Ha Lin the Demigod said with a smirk, “Soylo, could it be that Kuba is displeased with the Commander?”
