"President Xing, you... you... you..."

Elder Yin was too shocked to speak. He was one of the outstanding figures among the Half-Emperors, almost reaching the Emperor Level.

Yet under the terrifying power displayed by Gu Qijue resonating with the Emperor Star Will, he felt chills down his spine.

"Was this whole thing orchestrated by you?"

"Boom——"

As Gu Qijue's cold and authoritative voice fell, an immense and terrifying power, resonating with the Emperor Star Will here, erupted forth.

Standing not far from the crowd, Gu Qijue seemed to transform into the very essence of the Emperor Star's universe, exuding a dreadful pressure as if the heavens were collapsing.

Before him, the beings of the Emperor Star seemed like mere ants.

Even Saints, and powerful figures like Elder Yin, one of the Alliance's twelve Supreme Elders, seemed like clay chickens and pottery dogs, vulnerable and weak.

This earth-shaking, ten-direction-quaking terrifying might instantly drew, or rather startled, all strong practitioners of the Alliance Base to attention.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Figures rose into the sky or appeared out of thin air.

Then, one by one, they turned their eyes to the source of that great power.

With just one glance, all the strong practitioners of the Alliance were shocked!

"Hiss——"

Upon discovering that the owner of the Infinite Group had resonated with the Emperor Star Will, many couldn't help but gasp in disbelief.

In the past, the giants who were dissatisfied with the Infinite Group for taking away their share were now in utter shock, their pupils trembling with horror!

Everyone was dumbfounded, staring at Gu Qijue with eyes full of incredulity.

It's not that they hadn't seen the world, nor is it unexpected that they were this shocked.

Because, in the history of the Emperor Star, no creature had ever achieved this feat!

When they looked at Gu Qijue, he seemed to embody the terror of "I am the heavens, and the heavens are me!"

These powerhouses who usually stood high above others, now seemed insignificant and vulnerable before the current Gu Qijue.

Even those watching from afar could feel this way, let alone Elder Yin facing Gu Qijue directly.

No one could imagine what Elder Yin was truly feeling.

His heart incessantly surged with the urge to kneel and worship Gu Qijue.

He wasn't worshipping Gu Qijue, but the Emperor Star Will.

But with Gu Qijue now highly resonating with the Emperor Star Will, he became its spokesperson.

After all, Elder Yin was one of the Alliance's Supreme Elders. At such a time, he refrained from doing anything like prostrating himself in worship.

After thinking it over multiple times, he could only choose to yield.

Elder Yin looked at the two half-dead Saints on the ground and said, "The Emperor Star is currently waging an all-out war with the Celestial Domain, and the Saints are an important combat force for the Alliance."

"President Xing, this matter is unrelated to me. These two violated the Alliance Base's conduct code, acted unfairly, and severely violated the Alliance Base's principles of fairness and justice."

"For this reason, I could kill them in front of President Xing to clean house, and it wouldn't be inappropriate."

"However, as I've mentioned, the Emperor Star is in the midst of a war with the Celestial Domain, and every Saint should die on the battlefield, not by the hands of their own people."

"President Xing, you could retract the lightning from them. I'll send them to the frontlines to fight and atone for their mistakes, how about that?"

"Of course, for the losses caused to President Xing and the Infinite Group, the Alliance Base will compensate accordingly."

Elder Yin had lowered his stance considerably.

In the past, the situation would definitely have been reversed.

Many large groups, in front of the Alliance Base, were merely pieces of different weights, potentially sacrificial at any moment.

But today was different. After Gu Qijue resonated with the Emperor Star Will, he successfully stepped out of the chessboard, becoming one of the Emperor Star's players.

Because he could resonate with the Emperor Star Will, he was placed even above all other players of the Emperor Star.

Otherwise, how could Elder Yin have spoken so concedingly, demanding a reasonable explanation from Gu Qijue today?

After Elder Yin finished speaking, Gu Qijue revealed a cold smile: "The lightning on them is merely a small warning, and I have no intention of retracting it."

"The final outcome for the two of them depends on their fate and the Alliance's means."

With that, he didn't wait for Elder Yin to say another word and turned around to leave, domineeringly.

Elder Yin's expression was unpredictable.

But facing someone who could resonate with the Emperor Star Will to such an extent, despite any internal resentment, he had no choice but to endure it!

Elder Yin, his heart filled with frustration, grabbed the two half-dead individuals on the ground and vanished in an instant under numerous gazes.

He understood that today, Gu Qijue had essentially stepped over the Alliance to rise in status.

Under countless gazes, as a Supreme Elder of the Alliance, he was forced to bow and yield under Gu Qijue's pressure.

Elder Yin's idea was completely correct.

The news of what happened quickly spread like a hurricane back to the Emperor Star and the Six Continents.

To many beings of the Emperor Star, the Alliance Base's Supreme Elders were already of the highest status.

However, today, as one of the Supreme Elders of the Alliance, Elder Yin had to bow low and keep his hands tied before Gu Qijue, not daring to argue.

Not only that, but Gu Qijue also accomplished something unprecedented, perhaps never to be repeated: the highest degree of resonance with the Emperor Star Will.

Ji Tianyue looked at the tall, magnificent figure of Gu Qijue, her eyes full of brilliance.

Her dual cultivation with Gu Qijue could greatly purify her bloodline and enhance her strength.

Upon discovering that Gu Qijue could resonate with the Emperor Star Will to the highest degree, she couldn't help but want to...

Help her purify her bloodline faster, complete her transformation!

On the other hand, Ji Yinyue shared the same thought as Ji Tianyue.

A woman's intuition is always accurate; she sensed from the beginning that Gu Qijue was extraordinary.

After deeper engagement, she realized the uniqueness of Gu Qijue even more.

But unfortunately, wisdom comes with age; she was still contemplating when to dedicate herself entirely to Gu Qijue when her ancestor took the lead!

However, it didn't matter; Ji Yinyue was already aware of Gu Qijue's power, and she had dual cultivated with him once, albeit briefly, but it was a step forward nonetheless.

To put it plainly, the Celestial Moon Ancestor alone couldn't withstand Gu Qijue's immense power, nor could she monopolize him.

Even with her, it wasn't enough.

Besides herself and the Celestial Moon Ancestor, there would undoubtedly be other exceptional women entitled to this happiness.

The news of Gu Qijue resonating with the Emperor Star Will spread, leaving all parties in a state of shock, adjusting their attitudes towards the Infinite Group and Gu Qijue accordingly.

As for the competition against the Great Yan Dynasty, no group or power dared to mention it anymore.

To bring this up now would either show one's head filled with water or having been kicked by a donkey.

Even if they weren't trying to ingratiate, or curry favor with the Infinite Group and Gu Qijue, they wouldn't dare oppose them unless they were tired of living!
