Supreme Uprising

Chapter 1104: 10 Heavenly Emperors

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other five were true big shots!

Tianding Realm and the Human Race’s 36 Great Cosmoses, perhaps even the Mysterious Underworld Race, would consider them big shots.

This wasn’t only because they were disciples of the Human Race’s Divine Elder. They were already strong to begin with.

Before Tianding Realm had appeared, they had been like looming mountains that people would look up to.

After Tianding Realm had appeared, they had still been entities that the 36 Great Cosmoses could only look up to.

Now, they were bowing and greeting Human Ruler Luo Yunyang.

Luo Yunyang wasn’t really happy with the salutations of these six. Instead, his heart felt a little heavier.

Given their status, the fact that these six were paying their respects to him could only mean one thing. They were up to something.

The object of their respects wasn’t Luo Yunyang, but the status of the Human Ruler. It could even be said that they were bowing before the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor, who had bestowed Luo Yunyang with this status.

After pondering it for a moment, Luo Yunyang said nonchalantly, “There’s no need for formalities, Six Heavenly Rulers.”

The eyes of those six people turned cold when they heard Luo Yunyang address them as Heavenly Rulers. They naturally knew the difference between a Heavenly Ruler and their previous status, especially since it was Luo Yunyang who was addressing them.

However, Luo Yunyang didn’t find these appellations to be wrong in any way. Thus, the six of them could only suck it up.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky introduced the other five Yuan Venerates to Luo Yunyang. Or rather, the other five Heavenly Rulers.

“Your Majesty Human Ruler, speaking of the six Heavenly Rulers, the six of us aren’t willing to assume this role,” the first hall master of Dark Hall said. He was also the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler of the Six Heavenly Rulers.

He then added with a faint chuckle. “Actually, the position of the Human Ruler should have been given to Junior Brother Long Fantian. This way, Your Majesty would have been able to control everything. It’s a real pity.”

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other Heavenly Rulers didn’t seem alarmed or frightened by the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler’s criticism of Luo Yunyang.

Although they would meticulously show Luo Yunyang the respect he should be accorded, they wouldn’t think twice about inhibiting Luo Yunyang whenever possible.

For example, using words to thumb down Luo Yunyang was not a big deal.

Luo Yunyang glanced at the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler’s smiling face and knew that these matters wouldn’t be so easily resolved. However, he returned the smile. “Actually, I didn’t wish to involve the six of you either.”

“I like being direct and efficient when handling matters. Back then, my moves were excessively quick and violent. In a moment of carelessness, I killed your brother Long Fantian. What a pity!”

The six of them got the cold shoulder and stared unkindly at Luo Yunyang. However, they were now warier of him. This fellow had said these provoking words without even batting an eyelid. As if killing Long Fantian was a huge merit for him!

“Ha ha! So be it if he’s dead! Dying in the battle over the Human Ruler’s position was Long Fantian’s time to go!” the North Thunder Heavenly Ruler said. He was also the first hall master of the sacred hall that had been destroyed.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others discovered that they couldn’t gain the upper hand over Luo Yunyang during this exchange and decided to no longer tangle in a war of words with Luo Yunyang.

After all, this was not a big deal.

“Human Ruler, since the Divine Ancestor wants us to lead the entire Human Race, we mustn’t delay any matters concerning the Human Race, regardless of how big or small they are.”

As Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky said this, he produced a jade talisman. “This is a list we drew up for the formation of an imperial court. Take a look at it. If there are no problems, we can update this name list.”

Luo Yunyang took the jade talisman. The contents were quickly projected in the void. According to this name list, the Human Ruler was right at the top.

Below his name were the Six Heavenly Rulers!

Although he was right at the top, the Six Heavenly Rulers were like a firm layer of clouds.

Luo Yunyang had already prepared for this. Therefore, he didn’t react as he continued to go down the list.

Beneath the Six Heavenly Rulers were 10 Heavenly Emperors!

According to Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky’s arrangement, these 10 Heavenly Emperors would command the affairs of 10 regions. They would report everything to the Six Heavenly Rulers, who in turn would listen to the orders of Luo Yuyang.

Each of the 10 Heavenly Emperors was a peak Taichu Yuan Venerate exponent, but Luo Yunyang didn’t recognize any of the names. Clearly, they were top experts of Tianding Realm.

Below the 10 Heavenly Emperors were 24 Heavenly Marshals, who would be responsible for commanding the Imperial Court’s military. Each Heavenly Marshal would have 20 Divine Generals working under them!

Luo Yunyang discovered that amongst these Divine Generals, who were close to 300, were people like Dongfang Chitian and other Taichu Yuan Venerates.

This name list didn’t seem to have any issues in terms of ability. It could even be said that this name list was fair and had been created based on merit.

However, if Luo Yunyang’s Imperial Court was arranged using this sort of method, then he would simply be a joke of a Human Ruler.

“I think that this name list is very good.” Luo Yunyang simply wasn’t interested in looking beneath the Divine Generals.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky’s eyes widened. He absolutely couldn’t believe that Luo Yunyang would so easily give up all his authority that easily and let the Human Ruler become just a puppet.

“However, I do not agree,” Luo Yunyang said calmly as he put the jade talisman aside.

“Oh... I wonder what aspects Your Majesty finds unsuitable. As long as it is fair, we can make the corrections quickly,” the Southwest Earth Heavenly Emperor said with a hint of mockery.

In their opinion, they had already made the general framework. Even if Luo Yunyang wasn’t satisfied with certain aspects, they wouldn’t mind promoting the Da Qian Master and the others to Heavenly Marshals as long as it didn’t affect the general situation much.

After all, there were 24 Heavenly Marshals. So what if the Da Qian Master and the others were four of them?

“I don’t think that this arrangement is problematic for me. The most important thing is that this is fair for everyone!” As he said that, Luo Yunyang looked around him before adding, “Although I received the Divine Ancestor’s decree and became the Human Ruler, you six are still seniors of the Human Race.”

“While you do not care about worldly rewards and are willing to serve under me for the sake of the Human Race, I wouldn’t be at ease having you serve me.”

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky frowned when he heard this. He thought to himself, “Since when did you assume that we are serving you?”

“We just rank beneath you. That doesn’t mean that we are your subjects. However, your words seem to imply that.”

Even though they were uncomfortable, they could only push aside these thoughts and listen to Luo Yunyang patiently.

Then, Luo Yunyang chuckled. “What I mean is that I, as the Human Ruler, will establish my Imperial Court and control the domains of the 36 Great Cosmoses, whereas the six of you will establish your own courts and govern Tianding Realm. You will only report to me about matters that are beyond the six of you.”

Imperial Court?

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky immediately felt like scoffing when he heard these words. He was a crafty old fox, so he knew exactly what Luo Yunyang was playing at. Having two separate courts where everyone minded their own business seemed like a good thing.

However, they wanted this high and mighty Human Ruler to become a puppet. They did not want what Luo Yunyang had proposed.

“Your Majesty Human Ruler, the Divine Ancestor’s goal for establishing the Human Ruler wasn’t for us to mind our own business. His objective was for our race to truly band together and become a force to be reckoned with. Your suggestion will really disappoint him.”

Just like before, the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler spoke.

Luo Yunyang smiled. “Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler, you are mistaken. I have already said that the six of you can report to me if there are any matters you are unable to handle. Don’t tell me that I, the Human Ruler, have to meticulously deal with every single thing? Unless you feel that there is no need to report to me regarding Tianding Realm matters?”

The Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler felt a hint of anger but instantly suppressed it. Although he was very uncomfortable, this wasn’t the place for him to show his anger. Even though the Divine Ancestor hadn’t appeared, he knew that his master was observing.

He could ignore Luo Yunyang but he couldn’t defy his master.

“Human Ruler, the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler didn’t explain himself clearly. He believes that there is no need for us to establish an additional court.” Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, who was the leader of those six, spoke up for the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler.

Luo Yunyang glanced at Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky. “So it turns out that I misunderstood the Southwest Earth Heavenly Ruler’s intentions.”

“While it appears like the Heavenly Court and the Imperial Court are separated, in reality, they are two strong forces under my command. These are merely names.” Luo Yunyang chuckled. “Otherwise, your Heavenly Court would be called Heaven Hall, while my Imperial Court could be named Imperial Hall.”

These words nearly made Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others blow their tops off. They knew that Luo Yunyang didn’t wish to be their puppet.

They would govern Tianding Realm but would, in fact, become Luo Yunyang’s subordinates. Meanwhile, they wouldn’t get a share of the pie that was the 36 Great Cosmoses.

Although they didn’t really think much of the resources of the 36 Great Cosmoses, the 36 Great Cosmoses were huge territories of the Human Race that they needed to control.

“Your Majesty, you want to establish your own Imperial Court. However, an Imperial Court requires lots of manpower,” Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky said sternly. “If Your Majesty can produce 1,000 Yuan Venerate powerhouses, then you can establish this Imperial Court if you please!”
