Meeting chamber

"Thanks." Nightin says weakly as he allowed Lionel to hook him over the shoulder. At this point of time, Nightin has already gained the respect of Lionel.

This youth, he's much crazier than I thought. Is he the person in the prophecy, or is he someone who even the prophecy didn't foresee. If so, then just who is the other genius unheard of up till now? Lionel thinks to himself as he calls out towards Matthias standing before him.

"Special knight Matthias, please make arrangements to arrange a room with the proper recovery facilities for this young noble, help me to push back my other arranged meetings as well." Lionel instructs as he passes a token with the shape of a lion through the air.

"Take this, they'll understand my intentions upon seeing this." Lionel adds on.

"Yes General!" Matthias replies with a salute before walking up to support Nightin and say "I should really look up to you, but where's brother Hysan?"

"Your brother, he has already left the place." Nightin replied coldly as his body slumps onto Matthias, adding on weakly after "I'll require your assistance for now."

Back in the meeting chamber, Lionel had called for an emergency meeting of top priority and all events or other scheduled meetings in the Voyager Kingdom were cancelled without any advance notice.

Sitting at the front of the meeting chamber, Lionel looks at the four advisers, twenty four generals and the Emperor of the Voyager Kingdom sitting before him on the highest throne.

Everyone present at the meeting chamber at this point of time are all at the Overlord realm and even the weakest among them, were the four advisers at the middle stage Overlord realm that spend most of their time formulating strategies to improve their kingdom's strength before the great calamity.

This is the second time in history that the emergency meeting has been held, that first time was because of the Supreme kingdoms wanting Lionel dead and the second time is now, due to Lionel again.

The atmosphere in the air was tense, the silence was awkward, but none of them here had any clue as to how to break this silence.

"Let's cut straight to the chase, True General Lionel just why did you call for this emergency meeting and call for everyone before informing me beforehand."

"Your Highness, I believe that whatever information that I'm going to disclose next is of paramount importance not only to us, but the entire cultivation universe."

"True General Lionel, so you're doubting the ability of us advisers now?" Questions a old man with sharp brows and hair the colour of old age.

"Advisor Utara, please don't put any unnecessary words into my mouth." Lionel replies coldly without sparing him any face. Back when the Supreme kingdoms wanted him dead, this advisor Utara was the first one to want him dead.

"Isn't that what you're implying right now? You called for an emergency meeting just because you withhold some information which you think we don't know of!" Advisor Utara retorted, his chest heaving up and down in anger.

The other advisors merely turned a blind eye to this, but were prepared to stop Utara if he makes any rash movements.

The generals present weren't even willing to pay attention to this small quarrel. What they want to know is the main topic, getting hot blooded cultivators from the battlefield, getting them to listen to words is just a form of inhumane torture.

"Whether I'm implying it right now or not, it doesn't matter to me at all, unless you can assure me that you know of every potential talent in this world." Lionel says coldly, his eyes shifting over to the Voyager Emperor.

Before Utara could speak again, a majestic voice pressured on him from above "Advisor Utara, please stop this nonsense of yours before I take any action!"

Despite wanting to push on, he knows that it wouldn't benefit him to argue back with the Voyager Emperor. Swallowing his dignity and pride, he sat down on his seat as his face twisted with hate.

"True General Lionel, can you share with us about your discovery now?" The Voyager Emperor says in the form of a question.

"I'll start with a question, can everyone present name me the strongest genius you've ever met?"

One of the female general with wavy hair violet in colour says "If you really need me to name someone, then it would be someone from a opposing kingdom. Drizzle from the Beast kingdom deserves that title."

"At the young age of twenty two, she has not only stepped into the ninth gate realm, all of her gates are of the transcendent vibrant stage as well. As for her combat strength, even the weaker Martial Saints aren't her match unless they awaken the iridescent saint force."

"That's all?" It was the male general sitting opposite who spoke out. He had clear silver eyes and the demeanor he was giving off right now resembled that of a ferocious wolf who rules his race, one who can make his enemies bow down from just his voice alone.

The second strongest general under Lionel known as Silver, he also has a nickname and is known as the one who causes havoc around the battlefield. The moonlight wolf.

"You really think that she can be the best? The youth I met was a person who doesn't use any weapons or his body to fight, he makes use of his imagination and created a Divine law of his own, the law of imagination!"

"What!?" The Voyager Emperor stood up from his throne and asks "Are you sure that a youth actually created a Divine law of his own?"

"Yes, his name is Ash and he's also the disciple I just took in three months ago after conquering him with the demeanor of a wolf. At the young age of just nineteen right now, he has already awakened the Iridescent rank saint force just a few days ago and his combat strength already contends against the completion stage Martial Saints. In just a year time, even the weakest Great Saints might be nothing but easy prey in his eyes." When Silver mentioned the word prey, his tongue subconsciously sticks out and lips his own dry lips. Even so, no one commented on this inappropriate behavior of his, that's just the natural instinct of someone who grew up with a pack of wolves.

The Divine law may be impressive even in the Overlord realm, but many geniuses can awaken them if they want to, but what most people want is compatibility. As for creating a new law which can rank in the Divine rankings, even most Overlords aren't able to fully make use of this once in a lifetime chance, a Divine law once created by that one person, must be used and all other laws will be rejected.

"Silver, you still haven't change that bad habit of yours after all these years. Still, can you help me to arrange a meeting with Ash as soon as possible?" Even though the Voyager Emperor tried to hide the excitement in his voice, it was still too obvious for him to hide it.

"Your Highness, I believe that there's another youth who I should recommend to you as well." Lionel sat up from his said, his robes swaying along with the gentle breeze.

Seeing the Voyager Emperor nod, Lionel then says "The youth goes by the name of Nightin and he's seventeen years old this year and he ascended from the lower realms. His cultivation base is at the Martial Emperor realm and if I'm not wrong, he might have awakened the mystical gates which even the legends and historical records refuse to elaborate."

"At just the first stage of the Martial Emperor realm, he actually managed to force me to raise my cultivation base to the late stage Martial Saint realm, I even activated the first stage of my sage law and was even totally focused at that time. If we're going by just the average strength of cultivators, I believe that he has the strength to at least stand on even grounds with the weakest Great Saints."

"What nonsense are you spouting right now!?" One of the Generals with long black hair tied up in a ponytail interjected. Even though the others remained silent, unpleasantness was still clear on their face.

"True General Lionel, are you sure that every word that you've just mentioned holds true to their facts?"

"Yes?"

"Are you willing to swear with your life?"

"I, True General Lionel swear on the life of myself and all those under me that everything I've just said was true. If any false information was given, all of us would be banned from stepping into the battlefield ever again."

Lionel may not have sworn on his life, but it was this that caught the attention of others as the heavy atmosphere in the air lifts itself off. As a soldier, one does not fear death, what they fear most is having to be separated from the battlefield which is what they view as home.

"Alright then, bring him to see me as well. If their standards are satisfactory, I don't mind splitting apart a huge portion of the cultivation resources for these two youths. As for the others, I give you five years to find a inheritor and they'll receive the same treatment to the best of our abilities. Now then, the rest of you can be dismissed."
