High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

After Xiao Yuanshan left, life returned to normal.

Chen Yuan meditates in the cultivation room every day, refining the insights into the laws he gained from signing in beforehand.

The shadowy creature continued to frolic in the beast-taming arena, leaving the lawn, which Gu Changming had carefully maintained, riddled with holes.

Chen Tianling then took on the role of housekeeper, cultivating while keeping an eye on the activity around the villa.

Chen and ten others took turns on duty, and the vigilance range covered the entire artificial planet.

Everything was proceeding smoothly.

.........

A few days later, Chen Yuan's bracelet suddenly vibrated.

He looked down and saw that it was a communication request from Xiao Yuanshan.

Chen Yuan answered the call, and Xiao Yuanshan's resolute face appeared on the holographic screen.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, what is it?"

Chen Yuan leaned back on the sofa and asked casually.

He then made a joke.

"Could it be that the Empire gave me the order so quickly?"

Xiao Yuanshan quickly waved his hand, a helpless smile on his face.

"Special Envoy Chen is joking, how could that be?"

"For the Empire to issue an order to an honorary envoy, it must be something truly momentous."

He stopped smiling and said seriously.

"The reason I contacted you this time is because it's good news."

"His Highness was very pleased to learn that You were willing to accept the position of honorary special envoy."

"He specifically instructed me that I must not mistreat you, fellow Daoist."

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Oh?"

Xiao Yuanshan continued.

"His Highness has arranged a new residence for you in the Eastern Star Region."

Located on Yuhua Star, it is one of the most prosperous life-bearing planets in the eastern star region.

"The spiritual energy on this planet is dozens of times denser than that of the outside world, far surpassing the artificial planet in Ziyun Star Garden."

"It is very suitable for experts of your level to cultivate."

As he spoke, he made a few movements on the bracelet.

Chen Yuan received a document on her bracelet.

He clicked on it and saw detailed information about a planet.

The planet's surface is covered with vast green forests and azure oceans.

In the atmosphere, faint bands of mist formed from condensed spiritual energy can be seen, drifting slowly.

The planet is dotted with exquisite buildings, including manors, palaces, and pavilions floating in the air.

Each building occupies a very large area and is quite far apart from each other.

It's clearly a place where powerful and wealthy people gather.

Xiao Yuanshan's voice continued to come from the bracelet.

"His Highness has already arranged for a manor to be prepared on Yuhua Star."

"Pills, cultivation resources, and daily necessities have all been provided."

"Fellow Daoist, you can move in anytime with just your bags."

Chen Yuan looked at the planet on the holographic screen and felt a sense of emotion.

Why does this scene feel so familiar?

The same routine happened back on Earth.

However, back then, he had requested the global live-streamed coronation in order to complete the system's hidden achievement.

This time, however, it was the Canglan Empire that took the initiative to promote him.

He naturally understood what the other person was thinking.

For a mid-stage Eternal True God to become an honorary envoy is no small matter in any empire.

This is a good opportunity to demonstrate the empire's strength to the outside world.

At the same time, it was also a way of showing her goodwill towards him.

Seeing that Chen Yuan remained silent, Xiao Yuanshan cautiously added.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I'd like to ask for your opinion on, fellow Daoist."

"His Highness wishes to hold a small-scale press conference to announce your appointment."

"It won't be a large-scale event; we'll just invite a few official media outlets to report on it."

"The main purpose is to announce to the outside world that you have officially become the empire's honorary envoy."

He paused, his tone somewhat tentative.

"What do you think, fellow Daoist? If it's inconvenient for you, I can tell the Prince that it's canceled."

Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment.

Let them promote it; it won't do them any harm anyway.

He is now an honorary envoy of the Canglan Empire, and the more public his identity is, the safer he becomes.

Anyone who wants to mess with him has to think twice about the Canglan Empire behind him.

Besides, cooperating with their propaganda would be a way of giving face to the Prince of Zhendong, whom we've never met.

He nodded.

"No problem, Fellow Daoist Xiao can make the arrangements."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuanshan's face showed obvious joy.

He had prepared a whole bunch of arguments, thinking about how to persuade Chen Yuan to cooperate with the publicity.

I didn't expect them to agree so readily. If everything is prepared, the whole house will be saved.

"Excellent! Fellow Daoist, you are indeed straightforward!"

Xiao Yuanshan quickly replied.

"Then shall I arrange for the fleet to go to Ziyun Star Garden to pick up you, fellow Daoist?"

Chen Yuan waved his hand.

"No need to trouble yourself, just send me the exact location, I'll go there myself."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuanshan recalled the eternal, top-quality starship in Chen Yuan's possession.

That thing was much faster than the Empire's fleet.

He smiled and said.

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist's starship is much faster than our fleet."

"Then I'll trouble you to make the trip yourself, fellow Daoist. I'll send you the detailed coordinates of Yuhua Star right away."

He operated the bracelet a few times.

Chen Yuan's bracelet vibrated again, receiving precise interstellar coordinates.

Xiao Yuanshan added.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to rush. You'll arrive within a month."

"Contact me upon arrival, and I will personally come to pick you up."

Chen Yuan nodded.

"Okay, that's settled then."

Communication ended.

Chen Yuan retrieved the coordinates of Yuhua Star and projected them onto the holographic screen in front of him.

The star map on the screen zoomed in rapidly, pinpointing the location of Yuhua Star.

That planet is located in the heart of the eastern star region, not too far from the Purple Cloud Star Garden.

At the speed of the Shenzhou spacecraft, it would take about a few days to reach the destination.

He reviewed Yu Huaxing's information again.

It is indeed a very prosperous planet inhabited by life.

The upper floor is almost entirely inhabited by the nobles and high-ranking cultivators of the Canglan Empire.

Ordinary people don't even have the right to live there, let alone get close to it.

This kind of place... is quite fitting for his current status.

It's much better than that artificial planet, Ziyun Star Garden.

As for when to leave, he decided to leave tomorrow.

I'll finish this tedious task as soon as possible, then come back and quietly sign in to get stronger.

He was waiting to be strong enough in the future to return to the Yunlan Star Region and give those guys a little shock.

Let them know just how terrifying a being they offended back then!

Chen Yuan snapped out of his thoughts and used his divine sense to send a telepathic message to Chen Tianling and the others.

"Come here for a moment, everyone. I need to talk to you."

A moment later, Chen Tianling, Youying, Chen Yi, and the other ten people gathered in the living room.

Chen Yuan projected the data from the bracelet onto the holographic screen.

"Xiao Yuanshan just contacted me and said that the Prince of Zhendong has arranged new accommodations for us."

"On Yuhua Star, one of the most prosperous life-bearing planets in the eastern star region."

"The concentration of spiritual energy up there is dozens of times that of here, and there is also a well-equipped manor."

"There was also a press conference about my role as an honorary envoy."

Youying moved closer to the holographic screen, her small eyes fixed on the image of Yuhua Star.

"This planet is so beautiful! It's much better than the artificial planet we live on now!"

Chen Yi carefully reviewed the information and nodded.

"The concentration of spiritual energy here is dozens of times higher, which should be of great help to the eldest brother's cultivation."

Chen Tianling also said.

"Moreover, the security level of a planet where powerful and wealthy people gather is definitely higher than that of Ziyun Star Garden."

"It's also safer for us."

The shadow suddenly realized what was happening, and its ears drooped down.

"Wait, does that mean we have to move again?"

"I've only just gotten used to the grass in the beast-taming arena..."

Chen Yi patted it on the head.

"You call that digging? You dug up the entire lawn."

"And the new home is much better than this one. It's an entire estate, and the beast-taming arena alone is several times larger than here."

The shadow's ears perked up instantly.

"Several times bigger?"

It turned its head to look at Chen Yuan, its tail swishing like a windmill.

"Boss! When are we moving?"

Chen Yuan laughed and cursed.

"Weren't you unwilling to move it just now?"

"I speak with a straight face," said Shadow.

"That's because they didn't know the new house was better!"

Everyone laughed.

Chen Yuan stopped smiling and said seriously.

"I plan to leave tomorrow. It will take about a few days for the Starship to fly there."

"Let's finish the formalities and publicity as soon as possible, and settle down as soon as possible."

"Although this honorary envoy position is just a nominal one, the necessary procedures still need to be followed."

Chen Tianling nodded.

"That's right, the sooner it's done, the less trouble we'll have to deal with it."

Chen Yi clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.

"I will go and prepare immediately, and collect all the medicinal herbs from the herb garden."

The shadowy creature also flicked its tail and spoke.

"I'm going to dig up all the spirit fruits buried in the beast-taming area!"

Chen Yuan glanced at it speechlessly.

"You're still burying spirit fruits in the beast-taming arena?"

Youying chuckled.

"It's grain reserves."

.........

Time flew by and the next day arrived.

After Chen Yuan and his group finished packing, they put everything in the villa into the storage space.

Chen Yi carefully dug out the medicinal herbs from the herb garden and sealed them up with their roots and soil intact.

The spirit fruits that Youying had buried in the Beast Taming Field were also dug up by itself, totaling more than thirty.

Chen Tianling did a final check of the villa to make sure nothing was missed.

Chen Yuan walked out of the villa gate, stood in the courtyard, and looked back.

He had only lived in this villa for a few days.

It cost him a full 36,000 top-grade spirit crystals, after a 30% discount.

If I had known we'd be moving so soon, I should have resisted the temptation and not bought something so expensive.

However, the villa was not abandoned.

Who knows when I might be able to come back and stay for a few days.

He took out his communication bracelet and sent a message to Gu Changming.

"Manager Gu, you should already know my upcoming schedule. Please arrange for someone to take care of the villa regularly."

Gu Changming replied within seconds of the message being sent.

"Rest assured, senior! I will make sure the villa is spotless and impeccably clean!"

"Please let me know in advance when you will be returning, senior, so I can personally greet you!"

After reading the message, Chen Yuan put away the bracelet.

With a thought, the hundred-zhang-long Star Sea Divine Ship flew out from his storage space.

The star patterns on the ship's hull shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight.

The group boarded the ship, and the cabin door slowly closed.

The Starship took off and flew towards the outer reaches of the planet.

As they passed the outer defensive fortresses, the patrol fleet recognized the Starship from afar.

Gu Changming had already transmitted Chen Yuan's starship characteristics to the guard team.

Moreover, Chen Yuan is now the Empire's honorary envoy, making his status even more prestigious than before.

The patrol fleet not only dared not obstruct them, but instead lined up and saluted.

The fleet commander personally sent a communication.

"The Purple Cloud Star Garden Guard respectfully sees off the Honorary Envoy!"

Chen Yuan replied with "Thank you for your hard work," and then urged the Star Sea Divine Ship to speed away.

.........

Ziyun Xingyuan Central Management Building.

Gu Changming stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the light in the starry sky that was gradually fading away.

He let out a long breath and relaxed completely.

This important figure has finally left.

Although Chen Yuan was always very polite, he was, after all, a powerful being in the mid-stage of the Eternal True God realm.

With such a powerful figure in his territory, he always felt uneasy.

They were afraid of doing something wrong and upsetting the other party.

Now everything's fine, back to the usual leisurely life.

Even if Chen Yuan didn't instruct him, he would arrange for someone to take care of it and prevent the villa from falling into disrepair.

He turned and called out towards the door.

"Someone come here!"

One of his men strode in.

"Manager Gu, please give your instructions."

Gu Changming pointed out the window in the direction where the Starry Sea Divine Ship disappeared.

"Arrange for someone to clean Special Envoy Chen's villa once a week."

"The herb garden and the beast taming arena also need regular maintenance; they cannot be neglected."

"Remember, you must send the most meticulous person; no mistakes are allowed."

The subordinate immediately bowed and agreed.

"Understood, I will make the arrangements immediately."

.........

The Shenzhou spacecraft swiftly traverses the starry sky.

After upgrading to Eternal Supreme, the speed of the Starry Sea Divine Ship increased by more than one level.

Space jumps occur more frequently and cover greater distances in a single jump.

On the holographic screen, the distances on the star map are gradually decreasing.

Chen Yuan leaned back in his chair, toying with the purple token of the honorary envoy in his hand.

The token flipped between his fingers, its surface shimmering with a faint light.

"At the current speed, it should take about three days to reach Yuhua Star."

Chen Tianling looked at the star map and estimated the journey.

Chen Yuan nodded.

"After you arrive, complete the formalities first, and then participate in the press conference."

"Once these things are done, we should be able to settle down."

The shadowy creature lay on the carpet, idly swishing its tail.

"What's the point of publicity? Are you suggesting we make the boss give a speech on stage?"

Chen Yuan thought for a moment.

"It'll probably just be a public appearance, taking a few photos for the media or something."

"It's not like we're being appointed kings or prime ministers, there's no need for a speech."

Youying breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good. If the boss were to give a speech, he could sum up a sentence in three words."

Chen Yuan glanced at it sideways.

"Have you been itching for a beating lately?"

The shadowy figure quickly shrank its neck.

"No, no! Boss, you have the best speaking skills!"

Chen Tianling and Chen Yi chuckled to themselves.

.........

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

Yuhua Star is one of the most prosperous life-bearing planets in the Eastern Star Region.

The planet's surface is covered with vast expanses of lush, primeval forests and azure oceans.

Visible bands of mist drifted through the atmosphere, resembling a fairyland.

The planet is dotted with exquisite manors and palaces, each occupying a vast area.

Eight enormous starports float in the outer orbit of the planet.

Each starport can simultaneously dock hundreds of large spaceships.

At this moment, hundreds of meters of red carpet have been laid out on the largest starport.

The honor guard was in perfect formation, and all the cannons were in position.

In the VIP lounge of Star Harbor, two people were sitting on the sofa drinking tea.

One is Fu Xingyuan, the Chief Executive Officer of Yuhua Star, who possesses the cultivation level of a True God at its peak.

He looked to be in his sixties, with gray hair, a refined appearance, and wearing a dark green official robe.

The other is Jing Heng, the general of Yuhua Star, who is also at the peak of the True God realm.

He was tall and strong, with a rugged face, and his blue armor accentuated his battle-hardened aura.

Both men are powerful figures in the Eastern Star Region, having been stationed on Yuhua Star for many years.

Fu Xingyuan took a sip of tea and looked out at the starry sky.

"General Jing, why hasn't that honorary envoy arrived yet?"

Jing Heng leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed.

"Who knows? It's said that the special envoy has a very deep background."

"We possess an eternal, top-tier flying treasure that is several times faster than our warships."

"It shouldn't be long before we arrive."

He paused, then lowered his voice and said.

"I heard that the special envoy actually refused the position of honorary garrison commander."

"It was only after Envoy Xiao Zhenyu gave him an easier position as an honorary special envoy that he agreed."

A look of surprise flashed in Fu Xingyuan's eyes.

"Refuse the title of Honorary Garrison Commander? That's a position that can be achieved in one step."

"Offerings, military power, territory—so many people would fight tooth and nail for them."

Jing Heng shook his head.

"That's why I say this special envoy is no ordinary person."

"For the prince to value this so much, and to dare to directly refuse the position of honorary garrison commander, one must either be very confident or genuinely not care about these things."

Fu Xingyuan sighed.

"In any case, for the prince to value him so highly, this Special Envoy Chen's cultivation level must be extraordinary."

"We'd better be on our guard later and not be impolite in front of them."

Jing Heng nodded.

"That's natural; the honorary envoys are several ranks higher than us."

"No proper etiquette should be omitted."

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.

A young officer strode in, his face showing some excitement.

"Reporting to you both! Envoy Chen's starship has been detected to have emerged from the wormhole!"

"Approaching Yuhua Star, expected to arrive within 15 minutes!"

Fu Xingyuan and Jing Heng stood up at the same time.

The two looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Fu Xingyuan stroked his beard.

"We were just saying why we hadn't arrived yet, and then suddenly we were here."

Jing Heng grinned.

"The speed at which this eternal top-grade treasure is obtained is truly fast."

"Let's go, Lord Fu, let's go greet this Special Envoy Chen."

The two quickly walked out of the lounge and headed towards the reception desk at the front of the Star Harbor.

The honor guards on both sides of the red carpet stood up straight.

The gunner's hand hovered over the firing button, ready to fire at any moment.

All the staff at Star Harbor were in place, not daring to breathe.

Fu Xingyuan stood at the very front of the welcoming platform and straightened his official robes.

Jing Heng stood beside him, his imposing figure standing out in the crowd.

Fu Xingyuan said in a low voice.

"General Jing, have you informed Governor Xiao?"

Jing Heng nodded.

"We've already notified them. The town envoy isn't far from here, and he said he'll come as soon as possible."

Fu Xingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

He looked up at the rapidly approaching light in the starry sky.

The starship was getting closer and closer, and the star patterns on its hull were already clearly visible.

Under the starlight, the entire starship resembled a perfect work of art.

Even with his vast experience and knowledge, Fu Xingyuan couldn't help but secretly admire him.

This starship is indeed a rare treasure.

Jing Heng also stared at the starship, a fiery glint in his eyes.

He was a soldier, and he longed for this precious flying treasure more than ordinary people.

However, he also knew that something of this caliber was not something he could covet.

Fu Xingyuan withdrew his gaze and turned to give orders to his subordinates.

"Connect Special Envoy Chen to communications."

The communications officer quickly operated the equipment and soon connected to the communication channel of the Starship.

Fu Xingyuan took a deep breath and spoke in the most respectful tone.

"Fu Xingyuan, the Chief Executive of Yuhua Star, accompanied by General Jing Heng, respectfully welcomes Honorary Envoy Chen Yuan!"

"Starport is ready. Please indicate the landing location, sir!"
