The fact that Ye Zichen was so surprised meant that he knew the newcomer.
The person bowing deeply to Gu Li was none other than the mayor of Ice City, the one who'd received Ye Zichen on his way to the Outside: Han Nan.
In other words, he was a subordinate of the First Era's Minister of the Left, the Auxiliary Star.
Han Nan's expression was solemn. It was clear that Gu Li's status in the Outside was quite high.
However, Ye Zichen paid particular attention to what he'd just said. The Master of the Stars asked him to return quickly. Back in the Outside, hadn't Han Nan said the Master of the Stars had already perished? That's why the Outside had bet their lives on him.
Now Han Nan was saying something like that.
Gu Li stared at the golden characters in the sky. He said nothing for a long time, and Han Nan maintained his respectful bow. He didn't make any unnecessary movements.
"He really cares a lot about this person from the Third Era."
After a long silence, Gu Li's gaze faded, and his lips curled into an indiscernible smile.
"Didn't he already say he died? Why did he suddenly appear again? Is he really worried that I'll destroy this era's celestial fate and he won't be able to hide it anymore? "
Han Nan still said nothing. Gu Li's slander of the Master of the Stars was a personal grudge between the two of them.
Even though Han Nan was an Auxiliary Star, his status was still much lower than these two.
He didn't have the right to respond to their slander.
"Return." As he looked at the golden characters in the sky, Gu Li's eyes flashed with mockery. "He wants me to return now? Isn't he afraid that I'll collude with primordial beasts and destroy his era? All these years, hasn't he always been on guard against me? "
A long while later, Gu Li looked at Han Nan.
"Why did he send a mute? Can't you speak?"
"Your Excellency Gu Li, I was merely sent here by the Master of the Stars to take you back. As for anything else, my rank is too low. I don't know how to answer your questions. "Han Nan smiled, but he didn't straighten his back.
Gu Li stared at him for a long while, then shook his head and sighed.
"Forget it. I don't want to hold a grudge against an Auxiliary Star of your level. However, I need you to go back and tell him that I don't want to go back. If he wants to invite me back, he'll have to do it himself. "
"Gu Li, don't be too impudent."
At this moment, four beams of starlight suddenly flashed in the sky.
Before long, Ye Zichen saw four dazzling figures descend from the sky. These four figures were surrounded by starlight, and outsiders couldn't see their faces at all.
"Star Eye, open!"
A ray of golden light flashed from Ye Zichen's left eye. This was the first time he'd actively used the Emperor Star's celestial eye.
He was really curious about the identities of these four people, and it was to confirm his suspicions that he chose to do this.
The Emperor Star was the leader of the stars.
His Celestial Eye could see through all the starlight in the Nirvana Star. The instant he opened his Celestial Eye, the starlight around the four newcomers dimmed.
"Hmm?"
When they sensed Ye Zichen's Celestial Eye, the four people enveloped in starlight frowned.
With a wave of his hand, a curtain appeared around them, completely cutting off Ye Zichen's ability to spy on them. Even so, Ye Zichen could tell that the newcomers were three men and one woman.
The Third Era's Four Auxiliary Stars were also three men and one woman.
When they appeared, Gu Li smiled coldly. After staring at them for a long time, he narrowed his eyes and snorted, "I never would have guessed that the Four Auxiliary Stars would come as well.
It seems you want to use force to force me back? "" Gu Li, I advise you not to go too far, "said a man with a piercingly cold voice. "You usurped the Star Lord's celestial fate and caused the First Era's Transcendence to become unstable. Billions of our clansmen are in dire straits. The Star Lord is kind and doesn't want to bicker with you, but we're not good-tempered people.
”
Usurped celestial fate.
When Ye Zichen heard that, he frowned deeply. His gaze fell on Gu Li, and his expression grew even more solemn. It seemed Han Nan hadn't lied to him completely. The First Era's Transcendence was indeed unstable, and the primordial beasts had attacked them unbearably. Gu Li had just mentioned that the Star Lord had been in a state of suspended animation. It was very likely that after Gu Li usurped his celestial fate, he'd faked his death.
Han Nan wasn't aware of this.
Now that the Star Lord had suddenly appeared, it was most likely to protect Ye Zichen.
However, the First Era's Master of the Star Lord had already transcended. Why had Gu Li usurped his celestial fate? If that was the case, wouldn't Gu Li do the same thing in the future?
Little did he know, when Ye Zichen looked at Gu Li, Gu Li looked back at him.
As the two of them stared at each other, Gu Li snorted and laughed. "I usurped his celestial fate. You were all there. Think about it carefully. Back when he transcended, who gave him the celestial fate to help him transcend? I usurped his celestial fate. All I did was take back what belonged to me. What's wrong with that? Besides, why would I usurp his celestial fate and disrupt the foundation of Transcendence?
Don't tell me you don't understand? "
Gu Li's angry rebuke caused the four Auxiliary Stars to fall silent. After a while, the only female among them sighed.
"We're all responsible for An Lu's death. It wasn't just the Star Lord's fault. She died, and the Star Lord was deeply grieved. We know you usurped her celestial fate in order to resurrect her, but you're not the Transcendence Lord. You don't have the ability to do so. "
"Don't we have the River of Time?" asked Ye Zichen suddenly.
In truth, Ye Zichen hadn't said it on purpose. He'd said it subconsciously. The moment he spoke, the four Auxiliary Stars all looked at him. Then, one of the men sighed and said, "You're right.
"The River of Time has been destroyed."
This ….
Ye Zichen couldn't believe it.
The River of Time was a magical treasure refined by successive generations of Hades Emperors. According to legend, the first generation of the River of Time was actually a god-given artifact that Hades Emperor Hades had used to ascend to godhood.
It had been destroyed.
This was truly a little shocking. "Hmph, don't give me this useless crap. An Lu is dead. She's dead! If we want to reconstruct her body, we have to use the Emperor Star's radiance, just like he did with Xue Mo. That way, An Lu will survive. "Gu Li's eyes were filled with madness." I must take the Third Era's Star Lord's life.
If he dies, then An Lu will not die in this era, and I will use his starlight to revive An Lu! If you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened. If you don't ….. "
Boom!
An aura erupted from Gu Li's body like an erupting volcano. Even Ye Zichen couldn't stand firmly in the face of such powerful energy. He was blown backward uncontrollably.
