Swallowing the Stars: The Birth of a Cosmic God King

Blue Ocean Council Member.

Yan Ning's heart beat slightly faster.

The Azure Director is a position two levels higher than a base city councilor.

The chief councilor focuses more on administration and is responsible for governing the base city.

There are 25 base cities on the entire Blue Star, so there are only 25 councilors.

But the board members are different.

Although their numbers are more than those of the Speaker of Parliament, they are still only 50 people.

Being a member of the Blue Ocean Council signifies higher honor and status, but also higher requirements for combat effectiveness and contribution.

Every board member.

They are all at the top of the power pyramid on the blue planet.

No objections.

Qin Mufeng nodded, then looked him up and down, a slight smile playing on his lips, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Alright, I have something to do, I'll be going now."

He turned around, leaped into the air, and disappeared into the horizon as a streak of light.

Yan Ning stood there, gazing in the direction where the streak of light had disappeared, a strong longing welling up in his heart.

Planetary level!

When will he be able to fly freely through the air like Qin Mufeng?

......

Qin Mufeng sped through the sky.

But he was still thinking about Yan Ning.

This young man was even more outstanding than he had expected.

In just over a year, he went from a retired martial artist to a beginner war god, also cultivating mental energy, taming a planetary-level plant life, and mastering a set of sword techniques he had never seen before.

This growth rate.

There is no second one like it in the entire history of the Blue Star.

"In a few years, they might actually surpass us old guys."

Qin Mufeng murmured, then suddenly remembered something and thought he could give it a try.

He has a granddaughter who is only 29 years old this year. She is a warrior of the God of War level, with excellent talent and an independent personality. She is still unmarried and single.

I introduced her to a few men before, but she rejected them all.

But Yan Ning...

Maybe we'll hit it off?

"Go back and ask."

Qin Mufeng quickened his pace, and his figure disappeared into the clouds.

......

Two days later.

The Azure Federation released a congratulatory message across its entire network.

Holographic screens, smartwatches, public address systems… all channels pushed out this message at the same time.

The title was in red font and bold, accompanied by a photo of Yan Ning's ID.

[With outstanding achievements and well-deserved recognition, Nanjiang Base City Councilor Yan Ning has been promoted to Director of the Blue Sky Council!]

It is reported that Director Yan Ning has been carrying out clearing operations in the area surrounding Kunlun Base City over the past two months.

A total of 32 lord-level monsters have been killed, along with countless beast general-level and beast soldier-level monsters.

This move greatly alleviated the pressure of clearing out the enemy forces at the Kunlun base city, making an outstanding contribution to expanding the living space for the human race.

[After deliberation by the Azure Council and approval by the War God Palace, it has been decided to confer the honorary title of "Azure Council Member" upon Yan Ning, and at the same time, to add him as a formal member of the War God Palace.]

[This is a public announcement]

The news caused an uproar across the internet.

"Thirty-two lords? Two months? Is this data accurate?"

"Could an announcement from the Azure Federation be false?"

Why would a councilor from Nanjiang City go to Kunlun?

"Wait, do you guys remember that photo on the forum two months ago? Silver blades, plant vines, a mysterious figure... Could that figure be Yan Ning?"

"Now that you mention it... the silver blade flash, the plant vines, it all matches up! The figure in that photo is Yan Ning!"

"How did he do that? I remember he was just a junior officer who retired due to illness a little over a year ago!"

"A junior general who retired due to illness? Are you kidding me?"

Anyone capable of killing thirty-two lords must be at least a high-level war god, or even possibly a planetary-level being!

"Found it! Found it!"

Yan Ning, 28 years old this year, was a front-line soldier in the Nanjiang base city. About three years ago, his foundation was damaged in the Nanjiang meat grinder battle and he retired due to illness.

He performed outstandingly in the recruitment mission last year and was jointly recommended by the two war gods Zhao Henian and Zhou Wenbin, and was promoted to a city councilor of the base city.

He then single-handedly resolved the K-17 incident and rescued a missing special operations team member.

Now they've achieved another feat: slaying thirty-two lords in just two months...

"Is Director Yan not involved?"

"I don't care whether he drives it or not, I only care if he's still single."

"Wake up, upstairs. He already has three wives."

"What's three? Azure Council Member, a formal member of the War God Palace, with genes of this level, the organization will definitely increase his mission quota. Five? Eight? Ten?"

The discussion on the forum was lively.

But those who were truly shocked were the ones who knew the inside story.

......

Nanjiang Base City, Council Hall.

Zhou Zhengyuan looked at the announcement on the holographic screen, a slight smile playing on his lips, and took a sip of his tea.

"That kid, he really made it."

His secretary asked cautiously, "Speaker, isn't Director Yan Ning now considered a high-ranking member of Azure?"

Zhou Zhengyuan shook his head:

Not yet.

Above the Azure Council are the Elders, above the Elders is the Speaker, and above the Speaker is the Inspector. His road ahead is long, but…”

"To have reached this point at the age of 28 is already quite remarkable."

......

Kunlun Base City, Council Hall.

Speaker Zhang stared at the announcement in silence for a long time before finally sighing.

"Oh, it was him."

"A silver glint of light, plant vines—it's a councilor from Nanjiang! What are we Kunlun people good for?"

The other members of parliament looked at each other, none of them daring to speak.

Tell me, is this even human language?

……

Beidahuang Base City, Li Family Courtyard.

Li Qingyue sat in the study.

She stared at the ID photo, her fingers tapping repeatedly on the table.

"Azure Council Member"

"Official member of the War God Palace".

In just a few months.

The retired martial artist who she could have crushed like an ant had climbed to a position she could reach but couldn't easily attack.

"We can't wait any longer."

"Once Chongshan emerges from the pass, everything will still be possible."

Li Chongshan is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the planetary level of a spiritual master.

If successful.

He is the first planetary-level mentalist on the Blue Star!

By then.

The entire layout of the Ares Palace will change!

The deterrent power of a planetary-level mentalist far exceeds that of an ordinary planetary-level martial artist.

"Yan Ning".

Li Qingyue muttered to herself, a cold glint in her eyes, "No matter how fast you are, can you outrun Chongshan's breakthrough speed?"

……

Nanjiang Base City, Councilor's Villa District.

When Yan Ning opened the door, Shen Yao was pacing around the living room with her daughter in her arms.

Yan Xi is almost one year old.

It was chubby and fair-skinned, with big, bright eyes. When it saw Yan Ning enter, it stretched out its chubby little hands and called out indistinctly, "Dad... Daddy..."

Yan Ning's heart melted.

He walked over quickly, took his daughter from Shen Yao's arms, lifted her high, and the little one giggled nonstop.

Zhao Zixuan also came out of the inner room carrying her son.

The little guy Yan Yang is already four months old.

She was even fatter than her sister, and she wasn't shy at all when she saw Yan Ning. She reached out to grab his face.

"Wanqing is resting upstairs. She's experiencing severe morning sickness, so don't disturb her."

"Dad's home."

Zhao Zixuan's eyes were a little red, but she held back her tears.

Yan Ning smiled.

He took the alloy box out of his backpack and opened it to find a vial that glowed with a pale blue light.

Water of life.

"This is..." Zhao Zixuan's eyes widened instantly.

"For Dad."

"Enough to reattach the severed limb."

Zhao Zixuan's tears finally fell.

She handed Yan Yang to Shen Yao, then threw herself into Yan Ning's arms and cried like a child.

Yan Ning gently patted her back without saying a word.

......

Perhaps it's a case of "absence makes the heart grow fonder."

The usually shy Shen Yao accepted Yan Ning's invitation to a duo match and chose the Magical Cat skin, which is Battle Headmistress (Pure Desire Style).

Zhao Zixuan also cooperated by choosing the Piltover Policewoman skin, which is Pool Party.

That night.

Yan Ning's cold glint appeared first, followed by a spear thrust that moved like a dragon!

Even a level 9 bot lane duo can coordinate well and have excellent teamwork.

But how could he possibly be a match for Yan Ning, who is equipped with level 18 divine gear?

Shen Yao and Zhao Zixuan were naturally defeated and routed, and had to beg for mercy repeatedly!

The game lasted less than fifteen minutes before they surrendered.

In this chaotic battle, Yan Ning wins!
