Just as Emperor Star Forest had expected, the Dark Source Crystal was not as simple as it seems. The Dark Emperor had really left behind a trick.
It was at that moment, Emperor Star Forest was sure that Ye Xiao’s fate is sealed. He will definitely die and his body will be seized by Dark Emperor. .
He sighed and then shifted his attention to Xue Yu and Yan Moling, the two girls who spent an entire year to completely absorb his inheritance. This inheritance was left behind by Emperor Star Forest when he was about to leave the Land of Morning Stars. At that time, he was already a Great Saint Realm warrior.
And after more than a million years, he has already surpassed Chaos Overlord Saint Realm and has become a Nine Vast Origin Sea Realm warrior.
He smiled at his two inheritors and then observed other people exploring the Red Star Secret Realm. And it was at that moment he felt something strange happening. He felt as if someone’s breath had suddenly disappeared from the Red Star Secret Realm.
It has to be known that even if someone dies, it takes months, years, decades, and even centuries for their breath and aura to disappear. However, someone’s aura suddenly disappeared, in less than a second. Something like that had never happened before. If he is to say, he would say whoever that person was, his entire existence was erased in an instant.
But he knew that was not the case. It is just that something mysterious was happening in the secret realm he created.
He immediately used his authority as a master of the Red Star Secret Realm to trace back to the aura that disappeared and found Ye Xiao, the person who obtained the inheritance of Dark Emperor and even got his hand on an ultimate treasure like the Dark Source Crystal.
He was the one who suddenly disappeared.
No matter how Emperor Star Forest tried, he was unable to find where Ye Xiao has gone and how exactly he disappeared.
Hours later, he suddenly sensed the foreign object which he could not detect at all disappearing from the secret realm in exactly the same manner as it appeared.
He has no idea what that foreign object was, but one thing is sure, it must be a great treasure since even he, a Nine Vast Origin Sea Realm warrior was unable to find it no matter how hard he tried. It was as if only fated people could find that treasure, and only the person approved by the treasure would be able to take it away.
It sounds unrealistic. After all, how could a treasure choose a master? But it was real.
An example was Ye Xiao himself. After all, it was not him who chose the Infinity Edge Blade, it was the Infinity Edge Blade that chose him.
Emperor Star Forest sighed and felt troubled. Then he seemed to be thinking of something and muttered, “Looks like I have to make a trip back to the Land of Morning Stars. It is just that I won’t be able to enter that land because of my high cultivation base. I would be immediately rejected by the Morning Stars and forced out of that Land.”
“However… Since I am born with the blessings of Morning Stars, Morning Stars might make an exception and let me enter!”
Emperor Star Forest then started preparing to return to the Land of Morning Stars.
One thing is sure, his return will bring a great wave to the Land of Morning Stars which might affect this Land greatly!
…..
Ye Xiao soon found Fang Da and was surprised to see him with Ouyang Bingyu.
He remembered that Fang Da separated from him not long after entering the Red Star Secret Realm and went after Ouyang Bingyu. He just did not expect their relationship to deepen so much that they were laughing and chatting happily.
When Ye Xiao and Fang Da met, Fang Da introduced Ouyang Bingyu as his girlfriend. He also told Ye Xiao that he will not leave the Red Star City. He planned to stay in this city with his girlfriend before leaving together to find his lost grandfather.
He was sure that his grandfather was still somewhere in the Land of Morning Stars, and had not left this land.
Ye Xiao did not say anything. He simply agreed with Fang Da and also chose to return to the Cloudy Star Region. It has been so many years since he left the Illusionary Spirit Gate. He had no idea how his parents are and how everything is going on in the Illusionary Spirit Gate.
He was already thirteen plus when his Chaos Divine Sea was shattered by Yu Rong and was left behind in the Star Forest Region. Then he spent months in Qi Family and Hao Family, and more than a year in the Red Star Secret Realm.
He was almost 15 now.
It was really shocking for a 15 years old young man to have the cultivation base of Late Stage Chaos Spirit Realm. In fact, finding a second person like Ye Xiao in the entire Chaos will be very difficult, but it doesn’t mean finding such a person is difficult.
Leaving behind Fang Da, Ye Xiao walked out of the crowd and soon found Hao Lufan who was waiting for him along with a few people from the Hao Family.
Ye Xiao was surprised to see a deep scar on Hao Lufan’s face. But he did not ask anything. He could already guess that this scar might be the result of Hao Lufan’s clash with the people of the Cao Family.
“Young Lord Ye, you are here!”
Hao Lufan immediately greeted Ye Xiao politely when he saw Ye Xiao walking toward out. He could also feel an unfathomable aura originating from Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was not really releasing his aura, it was just that his momentum has increased greatly along with his strength, which also resulted in other people having such a sense of oppression.
Ye Xiao seemed to have noticed this as well, so he tried his best to act as normal as he could. He also retracted every bit of his aura he could.
“Elder Hao, it seems you have gone through a few things here as well!” Ye Xiao spoke with a smile.
“Eh… It was just some minor trouble. It was just as you have expected, the Cao Family really tried to assassinate me and others of my Hao Family. Fortunately, we were already prepared. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.”
“Young Lord Ye, did you…?”
Ye Xiao seemed to have guessed what Hao Lufan wanted to ask. He nodded and indicated that he was also targeted by the people sent by the Cao Family. And those people actually belonged to the Blood Shadow Tower.
Anyway, he was not weak and there was no need for him to worry about anything. He easily solved that matter.
Nodding his head, Ye Xiao gave a positive response. At the same time, he asked, “Did Lord Chen not do anything? After all, this is the Red Star City and it is his rule to not cause any sort of trouble as long as we are in the Red Star City!”
“Lord Chen did take action immediately when he found out. He also caught a few people and was surprised to find that those people came from the Blood Shadow Tower. Blood Shadow Tower is a terrifying force and no one dares to go against them, not at least a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior. So, Lord Chen let those people go!”
“But when he found out that the Cao Family was the instigator of this matter, he kicked them out and banned the entire Cao Family from ever stepping foot inside the Red Star City.”
Ye Xiao only nodded his head and did not say anything.
After that, Ye Xiao, Hao Lufan, and others returned to Lodge. They rested there for a few days. Then Hao Lufan brought Ye Xiao to meet Lord Chen. After all, he returned from the Red Star Secret Realm. And according to the rules, Lord Chen will take some treasures from everyone who comes out of the secret realm.
No one came to find Ye Xiao in the past few days because Lord Chen might be giving Ye Xiao some face.
No, that was not true!
Ye Xiao understood that it is not him, but his imaginary protector whom Lord Chen was giving face and did not ask for any treasure.
Anyway, since this was a rule and Ye Xiao benefitted a lot from this secret realm, it doesn’t really matter if he gave a few things to Lord Chen as well.
Ye Xiao did not really obtain many things. Aside from the Dark Source Crystal and the inheritance of the Dark Emperor, Ye Xiao only obtained a few more things.
Among them, he used Blood Essence to temper his body and evolve his Heavenly Demon Bloodline.
Aside from that, he owned a Purple Sun Fruit, thousands of Fiery Crystals, Herbs that could boost a person’s comprehension ability, and Purple Stones!
