On the way back, Ye Rong was worried about Ye Zichen's injuries, so she guided starlight into his body to heal him.
The other Star Lords were envious, but they were also shocked at the amount of starlight this young master could absorb. Back at the Bai Family, he had been instilled with it for more than an hour. Even a Four-Star Lord would not be able to withstand it, but this Young Master did not show any signs of discomfort.
Moreover, the starlight falling from the Milky Way seemed to be very willing to drill into his body.
"Young Master should be Wang Xing!"
"Do you even need to think about it? It must be him. If it was the Lord of the Stars, who would be able to resist this? "
The Star Masters of the Stars nodded and discussed. Ye Rong turned around and glanced at them.
"It's fine as long as you know. If anyone dares to speak of it …"
"Sister Rong, we wouldn't dare!"
"That's right. We're just talking among ourselves. If anyone were to leak the news that the Young Master is a King Star, I, Li Lei, will be the first to find trouble with him."
"Count me in."
"Me too!"
These Astral Lords were all Ye Rong's direct subordinates, and could be considered as Astral Lords that she had personally nurtured.
Given her status as the Lord of Seven Stars, the other Starlords of the Society of Saints didn't dare act presumptuously in front of her. However, these Celestial Lords had been living in the Star Altar for a long time, and they had become familiar with each other over time, so they could joke around with each other in private.
These Star Lords all had an extremely good relationship with Ye Rong. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to openly discuss things even though they knew that Ye Rong could hear them.
Ye Rong shook her head and sighed, then checked Ye Zichen's pulse.
"How is it? Tell me if you have any hidden injuries."
"Hey, I'm very good now. If you don't believe me, I'll give you a boxing set." Ye Zichen smiled energetically. Actually, he did that because he didn't want Ye Rong to worry too much.
"Alright, you'd better stop. If something happens to you, your mother will go crazy, "said Xuan Ji, pursing her lips.
"Right, Auntie, why are you all here? Great Emperor Xue Yang and Senior Zhao Qianhe? I've never seen the others before, but judging from their auras, they're no ordinary people," said Ye Zichen.
"They're all here for you." Xuan Ji rolled her eyes. "I was just afraid that you, little ancestor, would cause trouble. I tried to stop you, but I couldn't. In the end, I still let you run away. How could we not come if we knew? Don't you know who you are? "
"Heh …" Ye Zichen scratched his head. "Then they know as well?"
Xuan Ji nodded lightly. At that moment, the other great emperors walked over as well. Xue Yang sighed and stared at Ye Zichen for a long time. Even he felt uncomfortable.
"Don't look at me like that. I admit that I was a little impulsive …"
"My daughter didn't befriend you for nothing." She hadn't expected Xue Yang to say this after staring at her. "Little Mo always told me how great you were. Now I can see it."
"Me too, Ye Zichen. I admit that I was prejudiced against you before, so I apologize," said Zhao Qianhe, bowing deeply.
"Don't, don't, don't. You're all seniors. What are you doing?" Ye Zichen looked flustered. "I just did what I thought I had to do. Xue Mo's current state is partly my fault. She wanted to give me the sword from the secret realm. Otherwise, she could've withdrawn from the competition."
When he thought of Xue Mo's torment, Ye Zichen clenched his fists.
"How is Xue Mo right now? I only heard from Murong Xue and the others that Xue Mo's injuries are serious. I don't know exactly how bad it is. "
"You'll find out once you get to the Sea of Innocence," said Zhao Qianhe.
From Zhao Qianhe's tone, Ye Zichen could tell that Xue Mo's condition wasn't good. If even the Sea of Innocence, a sacred land of the Northern Divine Mountain, couldn't heal her, it was easy to imagine how serious her injuries were.
"Bai Yulong!"
Ye Zichen clenched his fists and rubbed the damaged Yao-Sealing Pagoda. He narrowed his eyes and said no more.
… …
Spirit City.
Bai Mingli's self-destruction had destroyed more than half of the city. The lucky survivors hovered in the air or stood on the streets, looking at the devastation.
Quite a few cultivators had already left the city. For at least a hundred years, it wouldn't be able to regain its former glory.
"What a powerful aura of resentment." A black-robed man suddenly appeared in the sky.
He held a black crystal ball in his hand. From time to time, dark gray shadows would emerge from the city and enter the crystal ball.
"Wonderful! So much resentment …. Hm …. Someone's here?"
The Four Direction Palace's people arrived in the sky above the city.
In truth, some of them had already retreated halfway through their journey. The God Emperor had suffered such a huge loss; no one could guarantee that he wouldn't turn his sword on the Sea of Innocence, Four Direction Palace, and Jade Lake.
The Jade Lake and Sea of Innocence were relatively easy to deal with. They hadn't mobilized any of their experts.
The Four Direction Palace had millions of soldiers, but they didn't leave many experts behind. The Four Direction Palace needed a large number of soldiers to stand guard, and they didn't need too many people to clean up after the city.
"What kind of tragedy did this place experience before?"
The people in the sky sighed in amazement. Even before they reached Spirit City, they could smell the stench of blood drifting in from the direction of the city. As soon as they entered the city, they could see that the ground was stained with blood, and even the canals were filled with it.
They regretted fighting so hard just now to get a place to stay.
Why did they mention fighting ….
Cultivators were used to keeping their treasures on them, or in spatial divine artifacts. The Bai Clan members had died, but the artifacts they'd used wouldn't be damaged. They could loot quite a few treasures from the corpses.
But now it seemed that they'd underestimated the situation.
The former Bai Clan headquarters was now piled high with bloody corpses.
Fortunately, the survivors had all experienced slaughter. If they hadn't seen so much blood, they might have fainted. Even the elites who'd stayed behind couldn't help but feel nauseated.
Boom!
At that moment, one of them, a man dressed in brocade robes, frowned and blasted a huge crater into the city's west.
"Throw them all in."
"Third Highness, you …."
"Incinerate them all. Their spatial rings and other divine artifacts will naturally fall to the bottom of the crater."
"Third Highness, that's brilliant! But didn't His Majesty say that these corpses are filled with resentment? He wants us to give them a proper burial! If we just incinerate them, the resentment …. "
"A proper burial? That's easy for you to say, but how are we supposed to do it?" The Third Highness snorted angrily. "Besides, isn't it all up to me when I return?"
"What about the resentment?"
"What does that have to do with me? Even if it does, it's the Central Divine Mountain that's suffering. We're far away on the Eastern Divine Mountain, so what's there to be afraid of? Just do as I say. The number of corpses here is estimated to be in the tens of millions. Just do as I say, and I'll give you thirty percent! "
Thirty percent!
The members of the Four Directions Palace gulped. Although the Third Highness alone took seventy percent, his appetite was a bit big. But even if he only gave them thirty percent, there were so many cultivators here, including rulers and diviners ….
"Alright, we'll do as you say, Your Highness!"
Unbeknownst to them, in the clouds above their heads …
