"What? You’re going to announce it to the whole world?"

Liu Wushuang’s eyes widened, and he scratched his head in helpless disbelief.

He was used to Qin Yang’s grand gestures.

But this was just too much!

’Giving away the blessing from reaching the Celestial Venerable Realm just like that?!’

"That’s right. This blessing shouldn’t be for me to enjoy alone."

Qin Yang said calmly, "Announce that at midnight tonight, I cordially invite all Star Martial Artists to gather in Jianghai to share in the Celestial Venerable’s blessing!"

"Yes, sir!"

Liu Wushuang nodded in agreement.

He then took his leave to carry out the order.

He was highly efficient. After receiving Qin Yang’s instructions, he and the Chief Commander released the announcement in the blink of an eye.

Once the news spread, the entire Earth Star was shaken.

On every street and in every alley, the citizens discussed nothing else in their spare time, and the topic’s popularity skyrocketed!

"The True Dragon Martial God has been silent for three years. He doesn’t make a move, but when he does, it’s earth-shattering!"

"The moment he reappears, he’s already turning things up to eleven for Earth Star!"

"Awesome! That’s our Guardian of Jianghai for you!"

"Three years! Three whole years! Does he have any idea how much we’ve missed him in Jianghai City!"

"Yes, yes! I’m so looking forward to this gathering. I knew moving all the way from the Imperial Capital to buy a house here in Jianghai was the right decision!"

...

At the Jianghai City Gate checkpoint.

An endless stream of people chattered incessantly. A sea of faces gathered under the ancient city gate, forming long queues. All of them were Star Martial Artists who had rushed here after hearing the news.

Squads from the Star Martial Police Bureau patrolled, working hard to maintain order.

There were crowded streams of people everywhere.

Chaotic and congested.

"The traffic is insane again today!"

A police officer on patrol asked his intern partner, "How are things over in the East District? Do they need us to go lend a hand?"

"It’s all taken care of, sir. The guys over there are on it."

Hearing this, the young officer gazed toward Fuhai District, his eyes shining with yearning.

"The True Dragon Martial God is really something else. Such a grand gesture, such magnanimity... only he could do something like this."

As he spoke, the young officer couldn’t help but sigh, vigorously polishing the police badge on his chest. "If I weren’t on duty, I’d want to go join in on the excitement, too..."

"Don’t you worry about that. The True Dragon Martial God definitely won’t forget about us."

The veteran officer chuckled and spoke like someone who’d seen it all before: "Every time he broke through before, there were celestial phenomena. And when has he ever not blessed the entirety of Jianghai City?"

...

...

「Meanwhile.」

While a storm was brewing outside, Fuhai District remained quiet.

"Young Master, the news is out."

In the living room, Liu Wushuang stood respectfully behind Qin Yang and reported, "The news has spread all over the internet, and the hype is building. Many Star Martial Artists are rushing to Jianghai as we speak!

They’re just waiting for you to bestow the blessing and break through!"

"Good. Thank you for your hard work."

Qin Yang nodded in satisfaction and looked at everyone in the room. "There’s no rush. Let’s eat first. It’s been three years, and everyone has made great progress."

He glanced around.

Elder Li stood by the sofa, dressed in a stern, black Zhongshan suit. His aura was powerful and flowing, and his eyes, beneath white brows, were as sharp as a sword’s edge.

He had clearly reached the mid to late stage of the Grandmaster Realm.

The Commander and Li Daoming were just as impressive, having reached the peak of the Innate Realm. It was only a matter of time before they broke through to the Grandmaster Realm.

And Lin Mofeng was even more extraordinarily talented!

By comprehending the Heart of Law, he had already delved deep into the use of the Power of Laws, touching the ceiling of the Grandmaster Realm. He was only a single step away from breaking through to the Venerable Realm.

In just three short years, every member of the Heaven-Blasting Gang had made tremendous progress!

"And what about you, Junior Sister?"

Qin Yang looked at Li Zixuan with a smile and teased, "Did you slack off while I was away?"

"No! I’ve been cultivating diligently too!"

Li Zixuan tucked a strand of dark hair behind her ear and summoned the Ziwei Divine Sword that Qin Yang had left for her.

The Ziwei Divine Sword floated and spun, circling her joyfully.

The next moment.

CLANG!

Sword Qi flared in all directions!

The air in the room suddenly turned cold, filled with an invisible, suffocating killing intent.

Everyone was startled, subconsciously shrinking back. Even Liu Wushuang, a Venerable, looked dazed for a moment, feeling a chill run down his spine.

This burst of Sword Qi from Li Zixuan seemed capable of cutting through anything.

It felt as if it could slice through the Great Dao itself with a single strike!

In terms of mastery of the Sword Dao alone, no one in the room could withstand her!

"And mine!"

Li Qinghe unfurled the Big Dipper Array Map.

Instantly, the hum of the array filled the room. Array Patterns spread out like a stellar brocade, linking together as if coming to life at the flick of her fingertips.

Outside the window, the night sky twinkled, and the seven stars in the heavens responded in kind.

Brilliant starlight drifted into the room, naturally forming a miniature Seven-Star Array Map.

"I’ve completely mastered the Big Dipper Array, you know!"

The two women, as if seeking praise, came to Qin Yang’s side. Clinging to his arms, one on his left and one on his right, they eagerly showed off the results of their three years of work, their beautiful faces beaming with pride.

"Excellent, excellent. You two have both improved so much!"

Seeing this, Qin Yang couldn’t help but laugh, feeling a wave of emotion.

’Specialization really does lead to mastery.’

’In just three short years, Li Zixuan and Li Qinghe have achieved profound mastery in their respective fields, easily reaching a level where they can fight opponents of a higher Realm.’

’Such talented prodigies...’

’They truly are the future paragons of the Array and Sword Daos!’

"What about me? What about me!"

Xiaobai raised her little paws, shouting as she squeezed through the crowd. She wiggled her way to Qin Yang, her fluffy white fox tail swaying behind her.

"Count them, Master! This Fairy has grown another tail!"

"Haha, nice, very nice."

At this, Qin Yang contentedly stroked Xiaobai’s tail and nodded in satisfaction. "Everyone has worked hard these past three years. Let’s get ready to eat."

The group enjoyed a sumptuous feast, catching up on the trivial events of the past three years.

「Two hours later.」

Outside Fuhai District.

The once-quiet district was now a sea of people, with boisterous crowds everywhere.

Traffic was heavy, and horns blared.

Li Qinghe and the others stood guard at the entrance, preventing anyone else from getting close.

’It’s about time.’

Qin Yang sat cross-legged on the open-air balcony of the villa. He could feel the Star Force within him surging more and more violently, its fierce power becoming completely irrepressible, as if it would burst out of his body at any moment.

’I stabilized my Realm earlier precisely for this moment.’

’To elevate all the Star Martial Artists in Jianghai City, and in turn, use the power of those thousands of Star Martial Artists to feed back into myself!’

’Now is the time.’

Qin Yang took a deep breath.

He held his breath and focused his mind.

The next moment.

A dense Gold Qi began to emanate from him, evaporating from his Domain and slowly ascending toward the sky.

The Gold Qi transformed into a magnificent, roaming dragon and shot straight into the high heavens!

ROAR!

A clear dragon’s roar echoed across the sky as a vast Dragon Mighty swept out.

"He’s here! The True Dragon Martial God is here!"

Outside Fuhai District, the waiting crowd instantly erupted, their hearts pounding as they watched the magnificent spectacle!

Golden light rained down, descending upon everyone’s head.
