Chapter 1742 Rejoining the Celestial Overlords

"R-really?! You'll join the Celestial Overlords?!" Qiang Qing Yun immediately became ecstatic, feeling like she was floating in the heavens from bliss.

She had prepared to fight tooth and nail for Yuan, and she'd even prepared some treasures just in case. However, the recruitment had gone unexpectedly smoothly and without any hiccups.

"Um, before you celebrate, I have some conditions." Yuan suddenly said, halting her celebration.

Qiang Qing Yun became serious again and responded, "What is it? As long as it's not unreasonable, we can definitely make it work."

"First of all, I do not want anyone investigating my background."

"I can assure you that nobody from my group will investigate your background, but I cannot guarantee you the other groups won't, as my control over them is limited."

"As a matter of fact, I can say for sure that they'll try to investigate you, especially as your reputation increases within the faction.. However, I will still try my best to stop them if I find out."

Yuan nodded, "That is good enough for me. I understand that it's impossible to stop people from being nosy, and being investigated is inevitable."

"My second condition is that you have to restrict access to my location. I am aware that high-ranking members have access to the location of other members."

Qiang Qing Yun then responded, "I can definitely restrict certain ranks from accessing your location, but I cannot block everyone, such as other Celestial Overlords."

"As for my final condition… Well, this isn't really a condition but a request. If other members from opposing groups were to cause trouble for me, I would like the authority to deal with them in an appropriate manner, regardless of their rank."

Qiang Qing Yun narrowed her eyes with a pondering face.

"Can you elaborate on what you deem as appropriate?" she inquired a few seconds later.

"For example, if someone plots or has the intent to harm or kill me, I will be able to harm or kill them depending on the situation. In other words, an eye for an eye." Yuan gave a brief but straightforward explanation.

"I see. If a member attacks you without justification, you are already allowed to retaliate without needing my authority. However, please refrain from killing anyone if possible, as that would make things more complicated."

"That's good."

"If that's all your conditions, I will give you the Celestial Overlords' symbol now."

"If that's all your conditions, I will give you the Celestial Overlords' symbol now."

Yuan nodded and extended his arm.

Not wanting to give Yuan another second to contemplate, Qiang Qing Yun swiftly gave Yuan the symbol.

"You are now an official member of the Celestial Overlords. Welcome aboard." Qiang Qing Yun showed him a bright and satisfied smile.

Yuan looked at the 'Apprentice' symbol on his hand and smiled, "Thank you for having me."

"To celebrate your acceptance, do you have any request? It's a rare opportunity to receive a Celestial Overlord's help, especially when they just joined the faction."

"Can I save it for later?" Yuan asked.

"Of course."

Qiang Qing Yun continued, "By the way, why did you come down to the lower heavens?"
