The lonely Dead Star Region had a visitor after ten years.
It was Li Yue again.
Her injuries had completely recovered. As soon as she entered the Dead Star Region, souls began to follow her.
The souls uttered faint roars.
"I want to find the Lord of the Dead Star. Can you help lead the way?" Li Yue said with a smile.
The souls babbled a few murmurs, presumably because they did not understand.
But there was no need for them to understand either.
The pitch-black mist around Li Yue wrapped around her body and quickly pulled her in front of Chen Xia.
"What do you want from me?" Chen Xia stood on the dead star, asking doubtfully.
"I want...I want..." Li Yue stammered a few times before finally shouting, "I want to apprentice. Are you available?"
"Very inconvenient." Chen Xia rejected mercilessly, then frowned and said, "Look at me, I don't look like someone who can teach others."
His whole body was filled with dark and thick fog, and it was also full of death air. He looked nothing like a normal cultivator at all. Chen Xia didn't understand why Li Yue wanted to apprentice under him.
Li Yue waved her hand to explain, "You are the most powerful cultivator I have ever met, and you were also an elder of the Azure Sky Sword Sea. Aunt Li Yang used to be apprenticed to the Azure Sky Sword Sea, so if I worship you as my teacher, it should also count as joining the Azure Sky Sword Sea."
"That certainly won't work." Chen Xia shook his head. "Come on, I'll teach you. Go straight out the door and turn left. There is a place called the Azure Sky Sword Sea. Go in and find an old man with crimson eyes and say you want to apprentice. He can let you stay in the Azure Sky Sword Sea forever."
"Is that old man easy to talk to?" Li Yue asked with widened eyes.
"He usually doesn't talk." Chen Xia replied.
"How do we communicate if he doesn't talk? Besides, the Azure Sky Sword Sea has now become a forbidden place. Legend has it that the cultivators who went in died."
Li Yue frowned, very puzzled.
"Yes, that's right. It was him who killed them, so there is no need to communicate." Chen Xia nodded.
"Ah, doesn't that mean I'm going to die too?" Li Yue was somewhat slow to realize.
At this time, Chen Xia shook his head and said,
"If you don't die, how can you be considered to have stayed in the Azure Sky Sword Sea forever?"
Li Yue raised her eyebrows and touched her smooth chin. She nodded and said, "That makes sense too."
Chen Xia shook his head, feeling that Li Yue was completely different from Li Yang.
If Li Yang was overbearing, then Li Yue was simply naive.
He glanced at Li Yue again and shook his head.
"It is impossible for me to accept disciples. If you really want to join the Azure Sky Sword Sea, then go find that red-eyed old man, or you can also find Li Yang directly. After all, Li Yang is one of the Fourteen Swords of the Azure Sky, isn't she?"
Li Yue stroked her cheeks and said, "Because she was the last of the Fourteen Swords of the Azure Sky, Aunt Li Yang doesn't like that title very much."
"Being the last one doesn't mean she is the worst one." Chen Xia replied. Then he said no more.
Li Yue's somewhat dark eyes began to stare at Chen Xia. Hidden in the lifeless black mist, Chen Xia also stared back at her.
Li Yue's pretty face turned slightly red. She should have felt embarrassed. She turned her head slightly to one side, stroked her head again, and curiously asked,
"Who is that red-eyed old man you mentioned?"
"The Guardian Elder," Chen Xia answered immediately, and then explained, "He can also be called the Vice Leader of the Azure Sky Sword Sea."
"So this old man is the vice leader!" Li Yue understood, but was surprised again soon after, "Vice... Vice... Vice Leader?!"
He was the supreme figure in the entire star region!
"Yes." Chen Xia nodded. "He's called the Vice Leader, but now he's just a spirit guarding the Azure Sky Sword Sea. After all, the Azure Sky Sword Sea is dead, and he won't live much longer either."
Li Yue patted her plump chest, and curiously asked again, "How do you know this? Isn't the legend that the cultivators who went in died?"
"So that was just a legend." Chen Xia replied, and whispered, "The affairs of the Azure Sky Sword Sea, I probably know the most about them now."
"Have you seen the emperor? Is the emperor really powerful?" Li Yue asked eagerly.
"I've seen him once. Yes, he is very powerful." Chen Xia nodded. A rare hint of reminiscence appeared in his eyes, and he continued.
"The Azure Sky and the Sword Sea are uninhabited. The place where people actually live is on a huge sword in between called the Immortal Sword."
"There is a pavilion at the sword's tip that stores secret manuals of mystic arts, and a sword forest with three million flying swords at the sword's hilt."
"I know about that," Li Yue said excitedly. "Aunt Li Yang said that the three million flying swords in the sword forest were all taken away by one person. When she went to the Azure Sky Sword Sea at that time, she didn't get to take a single flying sword."
She crossed her arms, snorted coldly, and commented, "That person is so selfish. How can anyone take the swords like that? He should have at least left Aunt Li Yang a couple."
Chen Xia glanced at her but said nothing.
After chatting for a while longer, but not going deeper, just some ordinary layout of the Azure Sky Sword Sea.
Li Yue listened with great interest. Near the end, she raised her eyes and suddenly asked,
"What about Chen Xia? Isn't Chen Xia the most powerful descendant of emperor in the Azure Sky Sword Sea? Can you tell me about him?"
"Forget it. I'm not very familiar with Chen Xia." Chen Xia declined with a shake of his head.
"Oh, alright." There was some disappointment on Li Yue's pretty face. After a while, she spoke again in a begging tone, "Can you really not accept me as a disciple?"
"I can't for now." Chen Xia shook his head in refusal.
"Then can you in the future?" Li Yue heard something implicit.
Chen Xia nodded and said lightly with a smile, "You're welcome to join after you die."
Li Yue was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes, feeling there was no point. She turned her head to look ahead, and her expression suddenly froze.
Hundreds of millions of souls were pushing a huge dead star.
And this dead star looked exactly the same as the one that disappeared a few years ago.
Even more horrifying was that the dead star kept throbbing, like an embryo about to give birth. Cracks could even be seen on its surface, as if lives were about to be born out of it.
She turned to Chen Xia in shock.
On the lonely dead star, Chen Xia smiled lightly and said,
"Life and death are just a cycle. The Dead Star Region has always been a place where the living dare not get near, let alone any vitality. But now it's different..."
His smile grew wider, and he continued smiling,
"I want... to seek life through death!"
That's about two to three thousand words for tonight.
I'll go to bed after reading these two chapters, don't stay up late.
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
