Chapter 617: News from the Metaverse

The entourages of Lord Li were panicked right now, all of them madly fled away. They all expanded their speed to the extreme. There is no way, in front of that terrifying monster, they can’t resist!

At the same time, Fang Yun’s body tissue was rapidly reorganizing. In a short span of less than a minute, his body had been completely reorganized and restored.

This recovery speed shocked everyone present.

“The resilience of this creature is too terrifying, right?”

The immortal kings watching from the distance were shocked. They looked at each other with bewilderment. This healing speed is a bit too terrifying.

“With a sage-level strength coupled with this abnormal recovery ability, it’s no wonder that young master Li can be beheaded.” The white-haired old man had a clear expression.

Of course, its victory relied mostly on its strength, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to push young master Li to such an extent, but its regeneration ability and exuberant vitality also played a major role.

Otherwise, this giant serpent wouldn’t have been able to move so easily without half of its body, let alone regenerate it in less than a minute.

Under everyone’s attention, Fang Yun suddenly chased behind young master Li’s companions, catching up with them and devouring them.

Even if they escaped in all directions, none of them managed to flee in the end. The difference in speed was too overwhelming.

Suddenly, Fang Yun’s gaze landed on the white-haired old man and the others, causing them to freeze in their place.

“This, this senior…”

The white-haired old man was stared at by Fang Yun. He could only bite the bullet and stand up and greet Fang Yun. His heart was filled with fear. He didn’t know what Fang Yun would do to them.

They had originally wanted to leave, but after thinking about it. They realized that it wouldn’t matter even if they escaped. After all, there’s a sage-level existence in front of them. As long as he wants to look for them, finding them amongst the myriad of beings on this planet would be easy.

Their only chance is to flee from this planet and into the vast space. That’s why they came to outer space in the first place so that they would have the chance to escape if there was anything wrong.

In addition, battles between sages are too rare. The battle between Fang Yun and Young Master Li was indeed a very beneficial battle for them, immortal kings on the edge of a breakthrough.

“My lord, we…”

The white-haired old man seemingly wanted to say something, but Fang Yun stared at them for a few seconds before looking away.

Fang Yun wasn’t interested in these cultivators. He turned his sight back to the planet far away and looked at Tang Guo floating in the sky.

Looking at the other party’s familiar face, there was a complex expression on Fang Yun’s face. He hadn’t seen her for more than a hundred years. In fact, he thought that she died. He never expected that he would meet her in such a far place.

​​　　Tang Guo, who was floating midair, was still in a coma at this time. Fang Yun tried to wake her up with his mental power, but he still didn’t get a response.

After opening his mouth, Fang Yun directly sucked Tang Guo into his mouth. Of course, he didn’t swallow her. He placed her in a corner of his mouth, protected by his energy.

Tang Guo was in a coma now, he could only take her away in this way.

After putting Tang Guo in his mouth, Fang Yun turned around and left this planet. He knew that a big battle might be awaiting him next.

That guy named lord Li obviously had an unusual background. Now that he killed him, his patron is unlikely to let him go.

A big battle is inevitable.

But Fang Yun didn’t have any fear. To be honest, he doesn’t fear any creature in this universe. He has the confidence to surpass all.

“Huh…”

Heaving out a light sigh, Fang Yun continued flying in the dark space.

The white-haired old man and the others who had been looking at Fang Yun were finally relieved. They escaped a catastrophe. At this moment, these people looked at each other, then flew back to the planet.

Next, they need to retreat for a while and digest the insights brought to them by the previous battle.

“Huh… I didn’t expect that that lord wouldn’t bother us.” On that planet, amongst the crowd of escaping cultivators, the bearded captain said.

“Yeah, my heart was about to jump out before. I thought that we’re all going to die.” A woman stuck out her tongue and said playfully.

“I feel that the reason that lord left in such a hurry is not to implicate this planet.” Some people thoughtfully said. Many people were silent upon hearing this. After a few moments of silence, they felt that it made sense.

For a powerhouse of that level, even if he is just a star beast, its wisdom is definitely not lower than theirs. In fact, it’s probably much higher.

Since he killed that young master Li, he must know that a super powerhouse of the sage level is going to target him next.

His departure is equivalent to diverting firepower from their planet.

“Hey, I hope nothing happens to that lord.”

The bearded captain sighed and said. The others nodded, agreeing with him.

“Okay, hey, that lord must have a clear understanding of his situation, but boss, this should be the second time we have met him. I think that the serpent we met at sea back then should be this lord. They are very similar and both are extremely powerful.”

At this time, a lean team member smiled and said to the bearded captain. The latter stroked his beard and nodded.

“There is indeed such a possibility. The difference between that lord and the serpent we encountered at sea is just body size, but for beings of that level, it should be very easy to change size and shape.”

“Hey, in just a few days, we met so many sage-level powerhouses! That can be considered very lucky! Maybe next year will be a good hunting year.”

The lean man laughed and said, The others nodded in agreement, looking forward to the future.

Just when the bearded captain and the others were talking, on the other side, Fang Yun had flown an unknown distance.

Fang Yun’s current speed is incredibly fast. Just his physical speed alone is several times higher than the speed of light, but if he uses his space control ability, he can reach much a higher speed level, allowing him to cross many star systems in the blink of an eye.

As he flew forward, he suddenly felt that the communication device in his mouth vibrated.

It must be Nebula and the others trying to contact him.

“Could it be that there is something wrong with the league?”

This thought suddenly popped out in his mind, but Fang Yun wasn’t really worried.

Even if the Metaverse league gets attacked, Fang Yun isn’t planning to interfere anymore, at least not lightly.

He has already bid farewell to the league. He didn’t participate in its affairs for many years.

Anyway, he can’t retrain the league nor hinder its development. The best thing to do is to allow them to develop independently.

However, he was still curious about what they wanted.

After turning on the communication equipment, Nebula’s face immediately appeared. There was a worried expression on his face at first, but after seeing Fang Yun, that expression immediately disappeared.

“Master Ouroboros.”

Nebula exclaimed loudly. He then took a deep breath, converging his excitement, and said,

“Master Ouroboros, I just wanted to greet you.”

“Just talk about it, what do you want from me this time?”

Fang Yun was unwilling to engage in these small talks, so he asked Nebula straightforwardly.

Hearing that, Nebula paused then said

“My lord, it’s not a big deal. Like I just said…You’ve been away for a while, I just wanted to contact you.”

Hearing this, Fang Yun was a little speechless. It turned out to be for this reason. He thought something had happened.

He also knew why Nebula was so affectionate. There is the factor of emotional entanglement, but the most important reason is that his existence can allow the nine heavens/Metaverse to survive in this competitive and dangerous universe.

“How about the people who have entered the Gray Mist organization?”

Fang Yun thought they have already connected, so he might as well ask about the situation of the geniuses who headed to the gray mist organization.

This plan was originally proposed by him, and it’s critical for the growth of the Metaverse, so he is quite concerned about it.

“My Excellency, the people who went to the Gray Mist Organization’ are doing well. We have also sent more people there, so the number of our people in the Gray Mist organization is about 300 now.”

“Huh?” Fang Yun was shocked by Nebula’s words. He did not expect them to send so many people to the “Gray Mist Organization”. This is a risky endeavor.

Originally, he thought that Nebula and the others would be satisfied with the number of people that have already joined the organization. He didn’t expect them to make such a risky move.

“My lord, a complete official academy system has been established. We have also produced many domain masters. We can now afford to send so many people to the Gray Mist organization.”

As if seeing Fang Yun’s doubts, Nebula immediately explained it to him.

After a moment of silence, Fang Yun nodded and said,

“You did a good job. By the way, what did these geniuses achieve after entering the Gray Mist organization?”

Hearing Fang Yun talking about business, Nebula’s face straightened up. He pondered for a moment, then seriously replied.

“After they entered the Gray Mist Organization’, they basically worked for the high-level people inside.”

“The Grey Mist Organization’ will issue a large number of tasks from time to time. Members are free to choose whether to accept these tasks or not. However, there are corresponding task quotas every month. If the members can’t reach those quotas, they must pay some remuneration. If they can’t reach the quotas many times in a row, they might get kicked out of the organization.”

“How about the casualties over there now?” Fang Yun asked randomly.

Hearing this, Nebula had a solemn expression on his face.

“That casualty rate is still very high. About 15% to 20%”

Speaking of this, Nebula’s face looked much darker. All of the people that he sent to the Gray Mist organization are young and vigorous geniuses. Unfortunately, they died due to his orders.

“Yeah.” Fang Yun responded indifferently,

“How is your overall strength now? Has Luo Feng made a breakthrough?”

Knowing that Fang Yun still had Luo Feng in his mind, Nebula was surprised and delighted. The relationship between the two is extraordinary, like father and son, so the fact that Fang Yun was concerned about Luo Feng delighted him.

“My lord, Luo Feng’s strength is now stronger than ever. The overall strength of our league has been greatly improved.”

Nebula replied with a smile.

“The only problem is that the friction between us and the small nearby countries has become more and more frequent recently. I am afraid that it will not take long before another war begins.”

Nebula’s expression was a little dignified. In his opinion, the Metaverse should focus more on cultivating and growing, so he is fine with peace. As long as those empires don’t take the initiative to attack, he is fine with the small skirmishes at the borders.

However, the friction is getting bigger and bigger recently. He suspects that there is something behind this mess. Unfortunately, they haven’t found any suspect for the moment.

“Well, I got it.”

Fang Yun wasn’t worried. Since Nebula said that it’s not a big problem, then it shouldn’t be a big problem. Anyway, even if they go to war, he can’t help them for now.

“You all be careful. I plan to travel outside for a while. When the time is ripe, I will come back.”

Fang Yun promised Nebula that he would definitely go back because there is a turbulent space gate there. That is the only path back home that he found, naturally he will go back to it.
