Chapter 189: Dispelling Doubts
And, as the strongest Grand Elder of the Azure Dragon family besides Patriarch Gaisleith, Elder Bru also knew things about this "Fifth Ancestor" that other gods did not.
Their Fifth Ancestor, the previous Star Sovereign, was no longer a Sovereign God but an Earth Supreme God who had established the "Star God Realm" within the Earth Supreme God Realm.
Hundreds of epochs ago, an adult broke through to the Supreme God realm and established an Earth God Plane. On that day, whether it was ordinary people in the material planes or the gods in the God Planes and Supreme Planes, they all knew that from then on, this world would have an additional Supreme Plane and an additional Earth Supreme God.
However, besides those Sovereign Gods, only a small number of people knew that the adult who had broken through to the Supreme God realm was the Fifth Ancestor of the Four Divine Beast Family, the previous Star Sovereign—Lord Roy!
Bru recognized the man in black robes before him.
Hundreds of years ago, three powerful Asura-level experts fought for thousands of years, traveling from the Purple Thistle Continent to the Blood Peak Continent, attracting the attention of many powerful beings in the Infernal Realm.
This one was Beirut, who could fight two opponents and still have the upper hand.
Bru felt that even though he had participated in so many Plane Wars, killed over twenty Commanders, and obtained a Sovereign Artifact for material defense and an offensive Sovereign Artifact, he was still a notch below the man in black robes before him.
Since Lord Fifth Ancestor was promoted to Supreme God, each of the four Sovereign's Emissaries under Lord Fifth Ancestor would occasionally appear on the Plane War battlefield.
One of those four Sovereign's Emissaries was Lord Aldrich, who had already been confirmed to have achieved Paragon in the Wind Element.
The second was Lord Breler, currently the most respected figure in the Four Divine Beast Family's army, second to none in both strength and mastery of magic arrays.
The third was Garfield, an Asura of the Water Element.
The last one was a Seven-star Demon who possessed a Sovereign Artifact for material defense. Because his strength was too poor, Edgar, who had participated in hundreds of Plane Wars, had not yet managed to kill ten Asuras to obtain another Sovereign Artifact.
After hundreds of epochs, Lord Fifth Ancestor's token reappeared in the world, which made Bru unable to help but show respect.
And it also made Bru unable to help but doubt.
As a Supreme God, the Supreme Rule was omnipresent for Lord Fifth Ancestor.
Besides Lord Fifth Ancestor, no one else could forge, or dared to forge, Lord Fifth Ancestor's Sovereign token.
It could be said that in Bru's heart, the young man in black robes before him was on par with Lord Aldrich.
Because this person was likely not a Sovereign's Emissary, but a "Supreme God's Emissary"!
"Oh?"
Beirut was startled as he looked at the Prefect of the Azure Mansion bowing respectfully to him.
The relationship between the Sovereign God behind him and the Four Divine Beast Family was truly unusual.
Originally, he had been prepared to immediately unleash his innate divine ability to kill the strong expert from the Four Divine Beast Family if there was anything amiss with him and then escape. Now it seemed he had overthought things.
"Prefect Bru, to be honest, I obtained this ring and this token by chance, so I don't know if I can be considered an emissary of this Sovereign God."
"I came to find Prefect Bru because I sensed that the four divine beasts on this Sovereign token were related to the Four Divine Beast Family, so I specifically came to you for information."
Since Bru was so respectful to him, Beirut did not engage in any pretense and laid out all his doubts.
"Heh heh..."
Upon hearing how Beirut obtained the ring, Elder Bru chuckled.
"Lord Beirut, you can rest assured."
"If it were not for the intention of that adult, you would not have been able to obtain this ring."
"Your obtaining the contents of the ring signifies that that adult has already acknowledged you."
Indeed, that adult was omnipresent. Without that adult's permission, even if this ring were placed before Beirut, it was still a question whether Beirut could even discover it.
This further solidified Bru's belief that Lord Beirut was not a Sovereign's Emissary, but an even rarer "Supreme God's Emissary."
Bru's words deepened Beirut's confusion.
"Prefect Bru, can you tell me more about this Sovereign God?"
"Since I have become this adult's emissary, yet after all these years I know nothing about this Sovereign God."
"I see that Elder Bru is unusually familiar with this Sovereign God. I wonder if Elder Bru can tell me this Sovereign God's name and deeds?"
"This..."
Hearing Beirut's words, Bru felt troubled.
The name of this Fifth Ancestor was not something he could casually mention.
Ignorance breeds fearlessness.
The Supreme Rule was omnipresent, and Bru did not dare to offend the name of the Fifth Ancestor.
"Lord Beirut, the name and deeds of this adult are not something I can easily speak of."
"However, the patriarchs of our Four Divine Beast Family should be able to mention them slightly."
"If Lord Beirut truly wishes to learn about this adult, I can take Lord Beirut to see the four patriarchs, and they can tell you about this adult."
"Then I will trouble Prefect Bru."
Thus, after arranging some matters in the Azure Mansion, Bru took Beirut and flew towards the Sky Sacrifice Mountain Range.
Along the way, Elder Bru had already pushed his speed to the limit. However, Beirut still followed him leisurely, less than ten meters behind. Beirut's nonchalant demeanor gave Bru a new understanding of his strength.
Putting other things aside, just Beirut's speed alone was something that none of the dozens of Asura Prefects Bru knew could match.
This meant that if Lord Beirut entered the Plane War, almost no one would be able to escape Beirut's pursuit before the final decisive battle.
With a powerful individual joining the Four Divine Beast Family, their pressure would be significantly reduced.
Over the years, as many younger generations of the family shied away from bearing the "responsibility" of the Four Divine Beast Family, the number of clansmen within the family had dwindled.
Yes, the "clansmen" Blue referred to were those willing to shoulder the family's "responsibility" and who had undergone the ancestral rite of passage.
Others who had not participated in the ancestral rite of passage were not qualified to use "Leiding," "Us," "Nimo," or "Bowen" as their surnames.
Although the intensity of the Plane War had lessened considerably over these tens of millions of years, the decrease in the number of clansmen in the Four Divine Beast Family had caused the older generation to feel even more pressure than before.
Blue, who was escorting Beirut to the Sky Sacrifice Mountain Range, was still contemplating how to invite Lord Beirut to join the Four Divine Beast Family's army after the four patriarchs had finished explaining the matter of the Fifth Ancestor to him.
However, he hadn't expected that Leisjing and Leihong, the two who had been fighting Beirut for thousands of years, were now honored guests of the Four Divine Beast Family's four patriarchs.
...
My head still hurts, so I'm going to sleep. Tomorrow's midday chapter might be a bit late, please bear with me!
