Chapter 4128 - Lord Yue! Lord Yue!

The atmosphere in the palace lightened considerably after Jiang Tianzhou, Tianming, and the other Jiang clan cosmic gods left. Feng Buhuo raised a glass and toasted Granny Pu. "You should be at ease at your age, but instead, you've handled all this pressure, risked being seen as disrespectful to the ancestor, and went way out of your way to convince Starlord Jiang. Your open-mindedness and courage is truly humbling."

"Starlord Feng, you flatter me! I don’t deserve your compliments," Granny Pu sighed.

"You’re too modest. The Tian Jiu Cult has mobilized all its forces, and their real motive is invading Grand Jiang. With their home on the brink of collapse, they’ll be desperate once the fighting starts. You rescued Grand Jiang by getting Starlord Jiang to change his mind. That's a huge accomplishment,” said Meng Xinlan, the grand princess of Grand Meng.

"That being said..." Grandma Pu sighed, "With ninety million cosmic gods, they’ll be desperate enough to attack Grand Jiang if we don't leave the star. We're outnumbered two to one, even if we have the protection of the astralguard formation. It’s unclear if we can hold our position."

Staring toward the direction Tianming had gone, Pu Fengyun said, "Those from the Ancestral Realm are in greater need of territory than Grand Xia. Li Tianming is pushing for a mutually destructive battle so his army can reap the benefits. A bloody war on Grand Jiang would leave both sides vulnerable, giving the flameyellow voidkin the perfect opportunity."

Their relief quickly turned into gloom. Granny Pu sighed, eyes welling up with tears. "In these troubled times, we’re surrounded by snakes and wolves. Disaster and suffering will befall Grand Jiang!”

The others couldn’t bear to see her sobbing and gasping.

"Your commitment to preserving your homeland for future generations is truly admirable." Feng Buhuo exchanged a meaningful glance with Meng Xinlan before adding, "The three million troops we initially sent were to serve as a wake-up call for Starlord Jiang. Since he’s chosen to take a step back, we’re willing to send two million more for the sake of our friendship. You can count on five million of our cosmic gods to aid in your defense!"

Meng Xinlan nodded. "We’ll provide another two million in reinforcements as well."

This brought the number of cosmic god warriors on Grand Jiang to fifty million. Though incomparable to the Tian Jiu Cult’s ninety million, the other stars had done their best, collectively contributing twenty million cosmic gods.

"You've shown incredible generosity by helping us, especially with the Tian Jiu Cult, Flameyellow army, and Grand Xia all posing an immediate threat to your home. How can we ever repay your kindness? On behalf of Grand Jiang, I thank you. Please accept my bow of gratitude!" Granny Pu said, tears streaming down her face as she knelt before Lin Shenjian, Chen Qing, Feng Buhuo, and the others.

"Granny Pu, you mustn’t!"

"We dare not accept this."

"The six stars of the Primordial Sands are like brothers; we’re one. Protecting one another is our duty!"

These words were primarily spoken by Feng Buhuo and Meng Xinlan. On the other hand, Lin Shenjian and Chen Qing could see Jiang Tianzhou’s point of view. It wasn’t right to bypass the starlord and speak at length with the Pu clan.

"Granny Pu, please stand up. I have some good news!" Meng Xinlan said, her face lighting up after hearing her subordinate’s reply.

"Good news?" The others looked at her with skepticism, unsure of what good could possibly come from this situation.

"Grand Princess, please speak." Granny Pu quickly rose to her feet.

Holding out a gold transmission stone, Meng Xinlan said to Granny Pu, "Lord Yue of Grand Yue wants to speak to you."

"Lord Yue, the most powerful man of the six worlds?" Granny Pu’s eyes lit up. "Is he finally willing to make an appearance?”"

Jiang Tianzhou had been the one in contact with Grand Yue. As far as Granny Pu knew, talks between the two broke down when the starlord declared his commitment to protecting their ancient ancestor. Grand Yue, the most formidable of the Primordial Sands' six nova source worlds, had yet to send people into the lower ruins

For a long time, the primalwingers of Grand Jiang had been the main lineage. But over the last ten millennia, Grand Yue had become more powerful, threatening to surpass Grand Jiang. The most telling sign of this shift was Lord Yue, the leader of the Primalwinger Alliance, who mostly operated outside the main lineage’s control.

Granny Pu was overjoyed to have Lord Yue personally contact her. She quickly tidied herself up. When the transmission stone was activated, a majestic, ten-thousand-meter-tall figure in white appeared, radiating a warm, graceful glow that made him look both dreamy and captivating. Despite the blurry image, his handsome features and elegant bearing were evident.

"Greetings, Alliance Leader Yue," Granny Pu said respectfully.

"I heard you’ve convinced Starlord Jiang to give up the ancient ancestor and prioritize Grand Jiang’s safety instead." Lord Yue’s melodious voice sounded.

"I can’t take credit for this. This is the alliance’s unified intention. I'm simply thick-skinned enough to speak the truth." Granny Pu shook her head.

"Very good." Lord Yue cupped his hand. "It’s incredible how dedicated you are to your descendants, even at your age. The six lineages have always been like brothers. As leader of this alliance, I won’t just stand and watch as others covet Grand Jiang and endanger the lives of the people.”

The others looked enthusiastically at Lord Yue. After a brief pause, Lord Yue declared, his eyes alight with passion, "I will deploy ten million of our cosmic gods to Grand Jiang and lead them in a decisive battle against the Tian Jiu Cult. And together, we’ll preserve the primalwingers’ divine might!"

His words ignited a passionate response, and cheers reverberated throughout the Jiang Royal Palace.

With tears in her eyes, Granny Pu prostrated herself. "On behalf of Grand Jiang, thank you for your act of righteousness!"

"Lord Yue! Lord Yue!" The cheers from the palace would soon spread out and bring hope to Grand Jiang’s troubled primalwingers.
