My surname is Gu, and my name is Li
As soon as Han Nan said this, a fierce gust of wind blew outside his window.
The plants outside swayed in the wind. Han Nan sat behind his desk, his gaze filled with disdain. This disdain was directed at God Emperor Zhou Wu, and at his wishful thinking of stealing celestial fate in order to transcend.
Zhou Wu's fate had been decided the moment he was born. No matter how much he struggled, no matter how much he schemed to defy the heavens and change his fate, it was all in vain.
Han Nan's confident tone made Ye Zichen's heart tremble. In terms of cultivation, Han Nan might not even be as strong as Zhou Wu, but he was confident that he could crush Zhou Wu's dreams.
He wasn't fated to transcend!
No, he wasn't!
That wasn't all. Ye Zichen also sensed a hint of hostility in Han Nan's eyes. If he wasn't mistaken, this hostility was directed at Zhou Wu.
The two of them weren't from the same world. Han Nan lived in the First Era, while Zhou Wu lived in the Third Era.
Ye Zichen had sensed why Han Nan treated Zhou Wu like this from the very beginning, when Han Nan said Zhou Wu had stolen the Five Elements Planet's fate.
"Han Nan was the First Era's Emperor Star's Auxiliary Star. As for what kind of Auxiliary Star he was, I'm not sure. Furthermore, I heard that the First Era's Master of the Stars died a hundred years ago because someone had stolen the Emperor Star's fate. Even though that person died, as an Auxiliary Star, Han Nan and the others couldn't tolerate someone like that appearing. "
When Ye Zichen heard this, his eyes widened. He couldn't help but come to a sudden realization.
Earlier, he'd wondered how a Master of the Stars could possibly die after transcending. To think someone had stolen their celestial fate. Having their celestial fate stolen had directly affected the Outside's transcendence. Now, the Outside had no choice but to ask him for help.
God Emperor Zhou Wu had stolen the Five Elements Planet's fate to become the God Emperor. That was why Han Nan was so hostile towards him!
Zhou Wu was truly pitiful. He'd schemed to steal celestial fate, and he'd even left his heart in the Time Corridor. Yet, he still couldn't take that final step. What's more, the Outside didn't view him particularly kindly.
When Ye Zichen obtained the Five Elements Great Emperor's inheritance, the Five Elements Great Emperor had asked him to avenge him.
Ye Zichen had never forgotten it, but the God Emperor's position was too high, so he could only bury it in the depths of his heart. But now, if he could pull in the Outer Realms, he felt that there was a chance.
However, even if they were to really deal with the God Emperor, all of this was a matter for the future.
The Third Era was about to come to an end. The primordial beasts needed experts at the God Emperor's level to defend the Third Era before Ye Zichen transcended.
"Mayor Han," the moment Ye Zichen spoke up.
"Don't call me Mayor Han. If you don't mind, you can call me Old Han or Uncle Han. To tell you the truth, I'm actually the Assistant Star of the current Planet Lord. When I see you … I can't help but think of the Planet Lord back then, "Han Nan said with a bitter smile.
Ye Zichen arched his brows. He hadn't expected Han Nan to be one of the Emperor Star's Auxiliary Stars.
The Assistant Star's position among the stars was not low. The Assistant Star's mission was to assist the Left Assistant Star in assisting the Emperor Star. According to ancient times, this would be the assistant of the Prime Minister, a third-rank official. If he was in the modern world, he would be the secretary general of the prime minister.
At first, Ye Zichen thought Han Nan was just a small fry among the stars, but now ….
The outer realms still valued him quite a bit!
Of course, they didn't treat him with absolute importance. Otherwise, the Left Assistant Star would've come to see him in person.
Ye Zichen loved being able to worm his way into a good relationship.
"Uncle Han, how do I transcend? Time waits for no man. I'm only a sky supreme right now. Although I'm about to become a diviner, there's still a ruler above me …. That'll take me countless years to reach. Although my talent isn't bad, if I keep cultivating slowly, I'm afraid I won't be able to transcend before the end of the era! "
When he saw Ye Zichen's hesitant expression, his eyes flashed with a dark light, how could Han Nan, who'd lived for several eras, not understand what he was trying to say?
"That's true. Then how about I infuse you with wisdom and help you become a ruler?"
Ye Zichen's eyes instantly lit up.
"That's great! If you can help me become a ruler, I'll be able to shorten the distance between transcendence. After that, I'll focus on cultivation. It's not like transcendence is impossible …. "
Before he finished speaking, Ye Zichen saw Han Nan's smile grow wider and wider.
His excitement immediately subsided.
He'd gotten excited for nothing!
Han Nan had been joking with him all along.
Ye Zichen pursed his lips. He'd been thinking about becoming a ruler and opening the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. Then, with the Xuan-Yuan Sword and the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, he'd be able to do whatever he wanted on the Divine Mountains.
When that happened, what about the God Emperor Zhou Wu, the Demon Emperor Kui Lin, the Yao Emperor Taiyi ….
They'd all be little brothers!
But Han Nan was just joking with him. None of that was going to happen.
"You're trying to bait me. Just tell me."
When he saw Ye Zichen's dejected expression, Han Nan couldn't help but chuckle.
"In truth, you've misunderstood the concept of transcendence. Transcendence is above rulers."
"Isn't that the case?" Ye Zichen arched his brows.
"Of course it is. Transcendence is naturally much stronger than rulers. But that doesn't mean you have to break through from ruler. Transcendence …. You can transcend at any level. "
….
When the cloak was lifted, a particularly handsome and delicate face was revealed.
His entire body was wrapped in a loose cloak, but everyone could see that he had no right arm.
At the diviner level, regrowing a severed arm wasn't difficult. This youth was at least a late-stage diviner, yet he hadn't regrown his arm. They couldn't help but find this strange.
Losing an arm would have a huge impact on one's formation, hand seals, and combat.
However, they were more concerned about what he'd just said ….
"What did you just say?" Kui Lin stared intently at the youth.
"I'm this era's Master of the Stars."
Before he finished speaking, a disk of stars appeared in the youth's left hand and circled around his palm. During this period of time, there were even people who looked outside. When the astrolabe appeared, the North Star also flashed as if it was responding to it.
At the same time, everyone within the cave sensed a faint pressure.
This pressure came from the young man in front of him.
After all, they were peerless experts who stood at the peak of the world. Every single one of them was a high-level ruler or above.
"This is the power of the stars." One of the yao experts couldn't help but frown. "This pressure is coming from the stars of the Nine Heavens."
This youth really was this era's Master of the Stars.
Everyone looked at the youth solemnly. Kui Lin stared intently at him.
"I seem to have seen you somewhere before. You're a member of the demon race."
