"What on earth are you doing?"
Ye Zichen, who'd been brought back to the surface by Xuan Ji, lowered his gaze and asked. The great emperors descended as well.
"Is this the youth you were talking about?"
The elder who'd set up the Starry Sky Formation Diagram walked over. The other great emperors nodded at him. Ye Zichen looked around. By now, he was surrounded.
"What are you doing? I'm going to see my mom."
"The Lord of Big Dipper simply used too much starlight. She didn't hesitate to injure herself to draw it in, all for your sake. Don't disappoint her. As for how long it'll take for her to recover, that's up to you ….. "said the Hermit Emperor.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Ye Zichen knit his brows, then glanced at the elder from the Supreme Hall. "How do you know about the Starry Sky Formation?"
"It seems you're right. It really is him."
The elder didn't answer Ye Zichen's question. He simply smiled at the great emperors.
Ye Zichen furrowed his brows. The great emperors' words were confusing. He couldn't figure out what they were talking about.
"All of you, don't just stand around. Get out!"
At that moment, the Hermit Emperor pointed outside.
Ye Zichen hadn't even noticed that the formation diagram beneath the Supreme Hall elder's feet was now beneath him. The great emperors left the room. The Supreme Hall elder shook his head and laughed.
"That old geezer, he's still so hot-tempered."
"Get out!" shouted the Hermit Emperor.
The elder smiled bitterly and left. Once he was gone, the Hermit Emperor waved his hand, and the formation diagram lit up with dazzling starlight.
The starlight completely surrounded Ye Zichen, then the Hermit Emperor pointed at a prayer mat he'd prepared beforehand and gestured for Ye Zichen to sit.
"Senior Hermit Emperor, what exactly are you doing?" asked Ye Zichen.
"Sit."
The Hermit Emperor's eyes brimmed with undisguisable solemnity. Ye Zichen noticed his solemn expression and pursed his lips.
"I know you have a lot of questions, but now isn't the time to explain."
Instantly, the world before Ye Zichen's eyes transformed into a vast river of stars.
The stars were bright and dazzling, but he was just a drop in the ocean in this river of stars. His heart was filled with confusion as he stood in the river of stars.
The great emperors around him had disappeared. The Hermit Emperor, who had been sitting across from him, had vanished as well.
In the entire Milky Way, there was only him, and the sky was filled with stars.
"Close your eyes and feel the stars calling out to you."
The Hermit Emperor's voice rang out in Ye Zichen's ears. Ye Zichen frowned and shouted, his eyes filled with confusion.
"What the hell is going on!"
"When everything is over, you will naturally understand. Right now, what you need to do is to feel the summoning of the stars and open your Emperor Star Eye."
Star Eye!
Why do I feel like I've heard this phrase somewhere before?
The Outer Realms?
Ye Zichen knit his brows. He couldn't remember where he'd heard the term "celestial eye," but he remembered the Hermit Emperor's words.
He closed his eyes and felt the call of the stars.
"Is that so?"
Ye Zichen floated in the Milky Way and sat cross-legged on the ground. Inside the star chart, he did the same.
The other Great Emperors had already spread out to the four corners of the Xue Family.
Ding dong.
Outside the star map, Pu Jingwan and Xiao Yumei's phones buzzed. They took out their phones and saw that Yang Jian and the Great Sage's messages had appeared.
Erlang Shen: We're here! Idealism!
Monkey King: We're here! Idealism!
Monkey King: I can't believe I let you beat me to it.
Erlang Shen: Heh, there's no point in saying that. I won this time.
Yang Jian and the Great Sage, who had no idea what was going on, started chatting in the group. Not only that, but they also messed around with Ye Zichen.
Erlang Shen: Ye-zi, do you want me and the monkey to fight right now? Idealism!
Invincible Adorable Beauty: Don't mention Ye Zichen.
Ultimate Charmer: Shh, don't argue.
Erlang Shen: What's wrong?
Monkey King: What's going on?
Invincible Adorable Beauty: Ye Zichen is in the middle of opening his celestial eye. He doesn't have his phone on him. If you have any questions, wait until he's done.
Erlang Shen: Celestial eye?
Monkey King: What do you mean?
Ultimate Charmer: Shh, quiet.
Invincible Adorable Beauty: Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. Just shut your eyes.
As soon as they sent the message, Xiao Yumei and Pu Jingwan ignored Yang Jian and the Great Sage. In order to prevent their phones from interrupting Ye Zichen's opening, they even set their phones to vibrate.
"Jingwan, you're from the Outside. Do you know what celestial eyes are?" asked Xiao Yumei.
"I don't belong to the constellations, so I don't know much about celestial eyes. However, when I was on a mission, I talked to a few of the Masters of the Stars. Opening celestial eyes is for communicating with the stars. As for the specifics, I don't know. "Pu Jingwan shrugged.
"Is it dangerous?" asked Xiao Yumei worriedly. "It shouldn't be." Pu Jingwan didn't sound confident. "I'm not sure either, but with so many great emperors here, I don't think there'll be any danger. Don't worry, Ye Zichen's mother is participating. Given how much she cares about him, do you think she'll be able to participate? "
"You're right."
"That's true." Xiao Yumei nodded.
Ye Zichen's gaze landed on the star chart. By now, Ye Zichen was completely enveloped in starlight. It was as if he'd draped a long robe of starlight over him.
The smaller star chart scattered about him like a cluster of stars was also twinkling. It really was like the starry sky.
As for Ye Zichen ….
He'd already cast aside all distracting thoughts and immersed himself in the Milky Way.
His eyes were clearly closed, but he could already vaguely sense the position of the stars. He could sense their twinkling brilliance, and he could even sense their kindness.
Suddenly, a dazzling star, several times brighter than the others, appeared in his perception.
As soon as this star appeared, all the other stars lost their luster.
"You're here?" A gentle voice suddenly called out in his sea of consciousness.
"Who are you? Are you the Emperor Star? "Ye Zichen asked inwardly.
"That's me. I am the leader of the stars, the North Myrtle Imperial Star!"
Suddenly, Ye Zichen felt an intense imperial aura wash over him. The twinkling stars lost all their luster, as if they were subjects submitting to their emperor.
"Do you see? That's me. The stars bow before me, and even heaven and earth dare not compete for glory. "
"This junior has long since heard of the Emperor Star. You're the leader of the stars, and I'm well aware of that. However, I'm rather curious. Is the one speaking to me now the North Myrtle Star …. Or the previous Master of the Stars? "
"Naturally, it's my Emperor Star!"
"Stars can talk?"
"Of course!"
"That's easy, then." Ye Zichen smiled inwardly. "This junior is here to activate the Emperor Star's Celestial Eye. I wonder if you …."
"In truth, I've been waiting for you."
The Emperor Star's tone was as warm as ever, and Ye Zichen smiled.
He hadn't expected everything to go so smoothly. As soon as he entered the Milky Way, he received the Emperor Star's call. Furthermore, judging from the Emperor Star's tone, he'd been waiting for him to activate the Celestial Eye.
The light of the star chart grew brighter and brighter. The other great emperors clenched their fists tightly.
"Xue Yang!"
The Hermit Emperor roared. Xue Yang immediately rushed to Xue Mo's room and used his divine power to carefully carry her out.
He'd been waiting for this moment. When Ye Zichen opened his Celestial Eye, starlight was bound to appear.
Xue Mo only wanted ….
