Chapter 2558: Chapter 24: As a Subordinate?
"So, Your Majesty the Queen, are you planning to just observe my battle, or are you planning to hide?"
"Just observe, isn’t this castle quite nice? You can have your intelligence system send some information here."
"Alright."
Since the queen is willing to observe the outside world with Jia Yan from this castle, he is more than happy.
The disparity in strength between the two sides is considerable. What Jia Yan is most worried about is the queen’s avatar going out into the outside world. If she accidentally becomes the enemy, Jia Yan would be quite troubled, as this avatar is of Domain level strength and its capabilities are unfathomable. If the queen joins the opponent, it might change the entire outcome of the war.
Fortunately, the queen does not seem to have such intentions. freёwebnovel.com
Perhaps, to a powerhouse like her, the war in the Orion Arm is just a minor skirmish.
After all, she has won a war involving four Domain Masters, likely with numerous Star River Middle Stage casualties.
So, facing a war where the strongest is only Star River Middle Stage, she probably finds it merely entertaining.
Far from the interstellar domain, within a twisted subspace, Jia Yan’s real body quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
His greatest fear was the arrival of the Insect Clan Queen, wanting to kill him, or like those Galaxy Level beings, intending to use his flesh for some purpose.
However, upon seeing the current situation, it seems the queen either isn’t aware of the miraculous use of Jia Yan’s Evolutionary Creature body, or she simply doesn’t care about this capability.
"After all, the Evolutionary Creature was somewhat effective against a Peak of the galaxy existence back then. If she knows something about me, it might still pose a great risk. Next time, I need to find out the details; otherwise, I would definitely not appear before her."
To a Domain Master, a Star River initial order existence, no matter how genius, is not significant. After reaching the Galaxy Level, it becomes challenging to resolve everything with talent alone. The queen’s talent is very likely better than Jia Yan’s, so he doesn’t feel that he has any advantage facing the queen’s avatar.
Given Jia Yan’s cautious character, he is pondering whether his strength has caught the queen’s attention, but he isn’t sure if she plans to confront him, or sincerely wants to leverage his power to climb to greater heights.
Additionally, Jia Yan considered that the queen’s subordinates might not be very strong, otherwise she wouldn’t have journeyed energetically through the interstellar realm earlier, even eying the then-weak Jia Yan.
"It’s true. It is said that the queen is about two hundred years old now, and her rise took place in the Insect Clan Domain. Although the species is traditionally a strong domain among surrounding starfields, it never produced a Domain Master before, and was nearly destroyed several times. After the queen appeared, the domain still lacked significant talents, making the strongest within just the few Star River initial order existences, prompting her to seek out talent everywhere."
Jia Yan thought of many things, such as the queen needing to gather talent, illustrating that the true powerhouses of the Milky Way, or Milky Way Central, must be extremely dangerous and terrifying. Even a Domain Master must cautiously deal with them, which tells a lot about the situation.
If Jia Yan truly cooperates with her to reach the Milky Way Central, it will certainly be extremely dangerous, but danger also represents high rewards.
It means he would receive true guidance from a Domain level creature, plus the massive resource support she promised. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Truth be told, Jia Yan has been on his own all along, likely because of issues related to resources and perspective, making him fall short of the queen’s talent. Jia Yan believes that if he receives formal guidance and resources, his cultivation speed would certainly astonish the queen.
Of course, probably all future talented beings accepting the queen’s invitation have similar thoughts. Jia Yan knows that those chosen by her cannot be talentless, and some may even have talents surpassing his own.
Everyone should think this way, assuming that receiving the queen’s guidance and material support will lead to quicker progression. But what truly happens, no one knows. In such circumstances, it becomes clear who is a real genius and who is a false one.
But Jia Yan is very confident in himself.
Within a hundred years, he feels he would receive proper guidance, and perhaps using his Yin-Yang Dao, he might surprise the queen and her followers...
"Heh, but whether I am willing to follow her is still uncertain. The most important goal right now is to deal with the current Allied Army."
Jia Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, already thinking about distant future issues without addressing the imminent danger.
He is very certain that, in the current situation, the queen will definitely not help him at all, as there is no agreement between them, and she intends to gauge Jia Yan’s strength and talent through this battle.
If within a hundred years, Jia Yan cannot even reach Middle Order Stellar Level, the queen would certainly suffer a loss; hence she wants to see if Jia Yan is worth nurturing, and this battle is likely to reveal much about it.
In fact, another Star River level being, not to mention reaching Star River Middle Stage within a hundred years, would celebrate even if they could reach Star River Middle Stage within their lifetime, as Star River Middle Stage and ordinary Galaxy Level are completely different tiers.
And within the enemies Jia Yan must face, there is such a Star River Middle Stage individual.
The queen is expecting Jia Yan, a Star River initial order existence known for transcending ranks, to see what capabilities he has in dealing with a Star River Middle Stage powerhouse.
Of course, back in her own days, she was such a terrifying genius battling beyond ranks too, even having fought two Star River Middle Stage foes simultaneously with a unique approach as a Star River initial order. Her experiences surpassed Jia Yan’s without lacking in any way, so she doesn’t believe the claim that one cannot transcend ranks at the Galaxy Level.
It’s just that it’s relatively rare.
She is anticipating whether Jia Yan can find a way to battle an Allied Army led by a Star River Middle Stage. If he can, then he barely meets her requirements.
Then he could be taken along.
Above the interstellar, some rumors appeared when the mysterious woman manifested, suggesting another terrifying powerhouse arrived in the Orion Arm to cause trouble.
But before everyone could react, further rumors spread, stating this powerhouse is a friend of the Mosquito Patriarch Senior, in fact, a terrifying powerhouse, with nearly unfathomable strength, possibly even more terrifying than Lord Jia Yan.
So, under these circulating rumors, almost all life within the Orion Arm gained renewed confidence in the domain.
Some of this information is true, while some is false.
Regarding who spread it, it’s unknown, just that when the intelligence was heard, the Insect Clan Queen’s avatar looked with a smirk at Jia Yan’s avatar in the same castle, knowing some Giant Mosquito is probably behind the scenes.
Of course, these are minor issues, the Insect Clan Queen won’t be mad, as her appearance indeed caused some trouble in the Orion Arm, and if panic led to Jia Yan’s defeat and blamed her, though she wouldn’t fear, she wouldn’t be pleased either.
Since no one knows it’s her arrival, being used by Jia Yan as a tool for rumor isn’t a problem.
"Alright, Jia Yan, now that your true body is ready too, if you want to battle, start the fight; though this is just an avatar, the time is limited."
