River of Stars
The voices of the 180,000 Subdued Star Guards shook the heavens and the earth, breaking the silence of the night sky. When the voices reached the ears of the crowd, they were all dumbfounded.
The Subdued Star Guards were unwilling to act against Chu Xingyun?
"What a bunch of audacious trash! You dare to disobey military orders!" The faces of the four Patriarchs changed greatly. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that Chu Xingyun's words would make the 180,000 Subdued Star Guards betray military orders. Moreover, it was done in public.
The 180,000 Subdued Star Guards could naturally feel the anger of the four Patriarchs. However, they still lowered their heads and didn't say a word. Their eyes flickered with hesitation.
Ou Zhong Kui roared with extreme unwillingness. He took large strides to the front of a Subdued Star Guard. Grabbing his collar, he angrily lifted him up and reprimanded, "Do you know what you are doing? Quickly act and kill this person. Otherwise, the eighteen ancient cities won't be able to return to normal."
That Subdued Star Guard faced the enraged Ou Zhong Kui with an ugly expression. However, he still replied, "Luo Yun's words are somewhat reasonable. This person cannot be killed."
"Scram!" Ou Zhong Kui was furious. He abruptly threw this Subdued Star Guard away. Glancing sideways, he saw Chu Xingyun staring at him with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth.
One had to know that Ou Zhong Kui was already in a violent rage. When he saw Chu Xingyun's sneer, he was even more enraged. He jumped up and roared, "Luo Yun, you treacherous villain! Don't try to mislead the masses with your lies!"
"Mislead the masses with my lies?"
Chu Xingyun's expression changed slightly. Instead of being angry, he smiled and said, "Every word and action of mine is for the benefit of the people of the eighteen ancient cities. If I mislead the masses with my lies, why would they support me?"
"As the old saying goes, those who are righteous receive support while those who are unrighteous receive little support. The ones who mislead the masses with their lies should be you guys, right?"
Hearing Chu Xingyun's last sentence, Ou Zhongkui felt that his patience had reached its limit. He angrily took a step forward, but was stopped by Mo Wuwei, who gave him a meaningful glance.
Then, Mo Wuwei took a step forward and stared coldly at Chu Xingyun. His voice was cold as he said, "What do you mean by 'a just cause receives more support'? What a joke. Luo Yun, everything you've done is nothing more than begging and pity!"
"Your so-called reform measures are just begging the people to support you and give you support. What a joke." Duan Chun glanced at Chu Xingyun, his face full of contempt and disdain.
Teng Ji didn't want to be left behind and walked out as well. He added, "Whatever you say is useless. You only want to confuse the Eighteen Star Guardians and make them feel pity for you. Then, you can seize the opportunity to quickly escape from this place and save your worthless life. Such actions are truly shameless and despicable!"
When the four of them spoke, they all put on a disdainful attitude, as if they did not put Chu Xingyun in their eyes. This immediately made Chu Xingyun's face turn cold.
He paused and sneered, "Everything I've said is just to escape from this place?"
His voice was mixed with laughter and it spread far away. Chu Xingyun's eyes suddenly narrowed and his voice swept across like the cold wind in the twelfth lunar month, "This is Saint Star City, the territory of Wanjian Pavilion. And I am the owner of Wanjian Pavilion. In my city, I am a supreme existence. Who can make me escape in a sorry state?"
"At this moment, Saint Star City has a Ten Thousand Stars Formation. In the sky above, there is a Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map guarding the four directions. With your strength, I'm afraid you can't even make a ripple!"
Chu Xingyun snorted coldly. The four people in front of him were really ridiculous. They did not even know the situation they were in and yet they still dared to talk nonsense.
"You're alone now. What can you do? I'm afraid you can't even activate the Ten Thousand Stars Formation." After listening to Chu Xingyun's words, Ou Zhongkui sneered even more loudly. When he spoke, he even made a disdainful gesture. His laughter was arrogant and somewhat crazy.
The other three Patriarchs also smiled. They had seized the opportunity when Chu Xingyun was alone and dared to make a move. They felt that Chu Xingyun was just bluffing and wanted to take the opportunity to escape.
"The fool is foolish. This saying is indeed true." Chu Xingyun glanced at the four family heads and sneered. His body slowly floated up into the night sky. He gently clenched his right hand. In the deepest part of the night sky, a strange light suddenly swept over and quickly fell into his palm.
The brilliance gradually dissipated. What was imprinted in everyone's eyes was a simple picture scroll. It was the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map.
"Ten Thousand Stars Formation – Activate!"
A low shout came out from Chu Xingyun's mouth. Endless spiritual power burst out from his body and entered the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map, causing it to turn into a ray of brilliance that swept into the night sky. Above it, dim starlight bloomed and scattered everywhere in Sacred Star City. It was as if the entire ancient city had turned into a Ten Thousand Stars Formation.
"What is he doing?" Seeing this, Ou Zhongkui was a little puzzled.
"One person setting up a large formation is simply unheard of, not to mention the Ten Thousand Stars Formation. Most likely, he doesn't want to lose face and is just pretending to be calm." Duan Chun raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms in front of his chest. It was as if he was watching a good show.
The crowd also focused their gazes, only to see Chu Xingyun open his hands. His aura sank, and his voice seemed to penetrate the entire night sky. He said loudly, "People of Sacred Star City, can you hear my voice?"
This voice blended into the heavens and the earth and filled every corner of Sacred Star City. The people who came to the courtyard were suddenly shocked. The people who were rushing to this place raised their heads, and the people who lived in various parts of Sacred Star City flew up into the sky and fixed their gazes on this place.
In an instant, the entire Sacred Star City seemed to be awakened. Almost everyone was looking at this place. Their burning eyes swept over from all directions, causing the void to tremble.
"At this moment, there is a group of idiots in front of me. They are trying to besiege and kill me on the spot, disrupting the prosperous development of the 18 ancient cities. They even said that I am Feng Wu, and there is nothing to be afraid of!"
Chu Xingyun lowered his eyebrows and glanced at the four Patriarchs and the 180,000 Star Suppression Guards. He continued to speak softly and straightforwardly, "Therefore, I hope that you can release a trace of your spiritual power into the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map and help me to restore the power of the Ten Thousand Stars Formation!"
After saying that, Chu Xingyun raised his hands in front of the astonished gazes of the crowd. In an instant, a trace of spiritual power flowed out from his body and floated into the void. Finally, it turned into a blurry starlight and imprinted itself into the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map.
"Luo Yun is too arrogant to think that he can get everyone's help with just one sentence." Teng Ji mocked loudly. He felt that Chu Xingyun was wasting his energy. However, just as he finished speaking, the spectators who were standing not far away actually raised their hands one after another. Spiritual energy bloomed from their bodies and entered the Myriad Star Ancient Spirit Diagram.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The spiritual power was very conspicuous in the night sky. It shone with various colors and slowly rose into the sky. The moment it came into contact with the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map, it immediately condensed into a blurry starlight and hung above it.
It was also at this moment that figures flew into the sky from all over the Sacred Star City as they spoke in a clear voice.
"If it weren't for Pavilion Master Luo Yun, we would still be helpless duckweeds. It's only right to support him!"
"The family system has long decayed. It must be broken and rebuilt. I am willing to support Pavilion Master Luo Yun and will not be disloyal."
"We must support Pavilion Master Luo Yun's words. If we choose to run away now, how different would we be from an ungrateful person?"
…
These words resounded throughout the entire Sacred Star City. Every word that was uttered was accompanied by a burst of dense spiritual energy. Strand after strand, they were like streams of light, meteorites, or even light ribbons, illuminating the huge Sacred Star City as if it was daytime.
Looking at the Ten Thousand Stars Ancient Spiritual Map, as the vast spiritual power gathered, this Imperial Artifact that had been sleeping for thousands of years once again released a powerful aura.
