Stellar Transformation-Chapter 396 - 13 episodes 16 - s Peaceful Night

When the Dragon Emperor said this, it seemed he was seeking Qin Yu’s opinion, but Qin Yu was very clear that the Dragon Emperor was trying to make him owe a favor.

Once he owed this favor, he would have to help others.

"If it wasn’t for uncle today, even if I could save my life, I would still suffer a loss. Uncle has helped me severely punish Emperor Yu, for which I am extremely grateful. Uncle, if there is anything you need, just say the word," Qin Yu said very tactfully.

The Dragon Emperor suddenly smiled, then said, "Qin Yu, you should know about the matter between me and Wu Xu, right?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"I know a little," Qin Yu nodded.

The Dragon Emperor instructed, "When you let Wu Ming and Wu Xu meet, I will stay away. Wu Ming might ask Wu Xu to meet with me... I am worried that Wu Xu will not agree, so I hope you can persuade him at that time."

Seeing the hopeful look on the Dragon Emperor’s face, Qin Yu couldn’t help but feel helpless.

"Qin Yu, just give a little help," Wu Ming also persuaded from the side.

Qin Yu nodded and smiled, "It’s not that I won’t help, just that I’m not sure I can persuade him, but rest assured... I will try my best to persuade him when the time comes."

A smile immediately bloomed on the Dragon Emperor’s face, "Then I am very thankful."

The Dragon Emperor looked around and immediately nodded, "That’s it, I will step back. Qin Yu, you let Wu Ming and his brothers talk first... As for whether Wu Xu is willing to meet me, inform me later."

After finishing speaking, the Dragon Emperor disappeared with an instantaneous movement.

On this piece of grassland that had just witnessed a battle, only Qin Yu and Ao Wuming were left.

"Brother Wu Ming, wait a moment, I will go and talk to Wu Xu," After speaking to Ao Wuming, Qin Yu instantly disappeared into the Jiang Lan Realm.

Ao Wuming, seeing Qin Yu vanish into thin air, felt a slight puzzlement, "Could it be that big brother is in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion? Otherwise, why would Qin Yu enter it?" By now, Ao Wuming was still unaware of the existence of the Jiang Lan Realm.

******

Inside the Jiang Lan Realm.

Qin Yu did not immediately rush to Ao Wuxu’s residence but went to where Hou Fei and Si Zhan were presently located, knowing that Hou Fei was probably still anxious.

"Why hasn’t big brother shown up yet?" Hou Fei kept looking around, his face full of anxiety, while Si Zhan at his side was trying to assure him, "Lord Hou Fei, Lord Qin Yu must be delayed by something, he let us enter here, he can certainly come in at anytime."

Hou Fei knew Si Zhan was right, but without seeing the person himself, he could not be reassured.

Suddenly, a person appeared out of nowhere in front of them; it was Qin Yu.

"Big brother," the anxiety on Hou Fei’s face disappeared, replaced by joy as he walked over, "Big brother, are you alright?"

Qin Yu chuckled, "Do I look like I’m in trouble? It’s just that my Divine Artifact Battle Clothes got destroyed this time." Qin Yu felt somewhat helpless, then smiled, "Well, as they say, out with the old, in with the new."

"A Divine Artifact Battle Clothes, big brother, who exactly were those two people?" Hou Fei only had a brief encounter with Emperor Yu before Qin Yu brought him into the Jiang Lan Realm, and did not know the two were Emperor Yu and Emperor Xuan.

"It was Emperor Yu and his wife Emperor Xuan," Qin Yu’s face naturally took on a cold tinge.

Towards Emperor Yu, Qin Yu could no longer bear it.

People who were set on killing him belonged to the category that must be killed.

"Was it that idiot Emperor Yu?" A fierce look appeared in Hou Fei’s eyes, and a Black Stick suddenly appeared in his hand, which he swung violently, "Their power is too strong now, I hope he doesn’t cross the Divine Tribulation soon, so I can catch up in strength and really stick a few holes in him with the Black Stick."

Seeing Hou Fei acting like this, Qin Yu could not help but laugh. But recalling the matter with the Dragon Emperor, Qin Yu immediately said, "Feifei, I need to handle something quickly, you rest here for a while, and I’ll come back later."

"Okay, big brother, go ahead," Hou Fei waved his hand cheerfully.

Qin Yu nodded and his figure disappeared again.

...

The Jiang Lan Realm was not populated by many people, just that the space inside the Jiang Lan Realm was almost boundless. Ao Wuxu selected a residence away from others; he did not want to live in a palace built by Qin Yu, but instead, chopped wood and built a wooden hut for himself.

A wooden hut, in front of which was a Cold Pond.

Ao Wuxu was now sitting cross-legged in front of the Cold Pond, and Qin Yu appeared out of nowhere beside him—Wuxu’s chill seemed even colder than the Cold Pond.

"What are you here for?" Ao Wuxu asked coldly.

"There’s something."

"Speak," Ao Wuxu said without even opening his eyes.

"Wuxu, your brother Wu Ming is here," Just as Qin Yu finished his sentence, Ao Wuxu opened his eyes and turned to look at Qin Yu, "Qin Yu, did you say my brother Wu Ming is here? Is that true?" A flicker of starlight seemed to sparkle in Ao Wuxu’s icy eyes.

Qin Yu nodded, "He’s right outside, do you want to see him?"

Ao Wuxu stood up, took a deep breath, then spoke softly, "Let me out."

"I thought you were still acting all indifferent, turns out you do care about someone," Qin Yu joked as Ao Wuxu only twitched his eyelids without saying more.

Then, Qin Yu and Ao Wuxu disappeared directly from the Jiang Lan Realm.

...

On the meadow on Yellow Bird Star.

Ao Wuming stood with his hands behind his back, silently standing. Qin Yu and Ao Wuxu appeared out of nowhere, and Ao Wuming turning around upon sensing their presence, saw his brother Ao Wuxu, who looked 70% similar to him, and a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

"Little brother," Ao Wuxu had an unmistakable excitement in his eyes.

"Big brother," Ao Wuming also walked over, and the two brothers embraced in a bear hug.

Qin Yu, being rather conscientious, walked to a distant part of the meadow, then sat down.

Looking back at Ao Wuxu and Ao Wuming from a distance, the brothers were chatting animatedly. Ao Wuxu who usually seemed so cold now had a smile that cracked the ice, a truly staggering smile.

The grass was still damp, and the moisture carried a hint of cold that sobered Qin Yu’s mind considerably.

"Ah!" Qin Yu sighed deeply, his face revealing a serene smile.

For some reason, at that moment, Qin Yu remembered his homeland in the Mortal Realm’s Purple Dark Star, Donglan Mountain on the Hidden Dragon Continent where he had embraced Little Black time and again while gazing at the vast heavens atop the mountain.

He had also once looked up at the starry sky from the rooftop of Cloud Mist Villa.

In an instant, the stars seemed to shift. From a mountain top in the Mortal World, he was now on Yellow Bird Star, part of the Feiqin Clan’s territory in the realms of Immortals, Demons, and Heavenly Demons, where he even had a confrontation with Emperor Yu on this very land.

"Father, Big Brother, Second Brother, how are they doing?" Qin Yu stared upward into the starry sky, as if trying to see through space to the Mortal World.

In another dimension, perhaps his father and brothers were thinking of him too.

With their cultivation speeds, it would take them a few hundred or perhaps even over a thousand years to ascend here," Qin Yu was quite clear about this, as cultivators in the Mortal World cultivated ten times slower than those in the realms of Immortals, Demons, and Heavenly Demons.

He smiled gently.

Qin Yu lay down, his back against the soft grass.

Compared to the Mortal Realm’s Purple Dark Star, there were far too many populated planets in the realms of Immortals, Demons, and Heavenly Demons, and although each planet had numerous people, the land was vast, making much of it barren. Lying there, Qin could feel an encompassing silence.

Aside from the nearby conversation of brothers Wu Xu and Brother Wu Ming, there wasn’t anyone else within thousands of miles.

"I wonder where Li’er is now?" Qin Yu asked as he lay there, his gaze piercing through the cosmic void to the countless stars, "Uncle Lan once said that once I fully unlock the third layer of the Jiang Lan Realm, I’ll qualify to meet Li’er, but now I can’t even unlock the second layer." His mind was flooded with ceaseless thoughts.

With father, brothers, a beloved, and the kind Uncle Lan... one by one, these figures surfaced in Qin Yu’s mind as he quietly closed his eyes: "No more thinking, no more thinking, there’s always a way out; one must always look forward."

A peace settled over Qin Yu’s heart.

Quietly...

His heart reached the pinnacle of serenity.

Qin Yu was in a peculiar state this moment. The figures of his family and friends appeared in his mind, yet his heart remained serene, as if he was thinking of nothing. This detached tranquility made Qin Yu feel comfortable.

In that moment, Qin Yu suddenly perceived the endless void, and the silent cosmic space also was utterly still. Unseen by him, the Meteor Tear within his soul was emitting streaks of green light, spreading throughout the universe.

Unaware, Qin Yu’s soul was undergoing some transformations.

And in this moment, Qin Yu felt a warmth enveloping his heart; he thought of nothing, and it seemed as if he had fallen asleep.

Suddenly—

Qin Yu felt a commotion arise, and he jolted awake, "What’s going on?" As he came to, the Meteor Tear within his soul returned to normal, and Qin Yu himself emerged from that profound state.

"What happened to me?" Qin Yu touched the corner of his eye, only to find a tear there.

"My Soul Realm!" Qin Yu’s face was filled with shock.

Qin Yu’s soul had just reached the Heavenly Soul First Level, yet after a brief ’sleep,’ his soul realm had unexpectedly advanced to the Heavenly Soul Second Level. Qin Yu was well aware that if he continued with cultivation, it would take him at least several hundred years to achieve the Heavenly Soul Second Level.

Qin Yu did a quick calculation in his mind.

"It’s only been a short while, not even half an hour. How could I have improved so drastically?" Qin Yu was astonished.

"Could this be Sudden Insight?" Qin Yu suddenly realized. He had heard about ’Sudden Insight’—some cultivators weren’t very impressive, but they might enter a special state at certain moments. In this state, their soul realm could skyrocket at a terrifying speed, and some might even ascend to the peak instantly.

Once Sudden Insight was interrupted, it would be incredibly difficult to enter that state again.

"What state was I in just now?" Qin Yu tried hard to think, but no matter how he pondered, he couldn’t remember clearly what state he was in. He only knew that he hadn’t been thinking about anything at all; it was very comfortable, and he had even naturally cried tears.

"Younger brother, don’t talk anymore." A distant voice came.

Qin Yu turned his head to look.

At this moment, Ao Wuxu was arguing with Ao Wuming. Qin Yu helplessly watched the two of them. If it weren’t for their argumentative voices pulling him out of that state, perhaps his soul realm could have reached the Heavenly Soul Third Level in one fell swoop. He might even have broken through the Heavenly Soul Realm and reached the Great Perfection Realm.

Shaking his head with a smile, Qin Yu walked towards Ao Wuxu and Ao Wuming.

Sudden Insight was something one could encounter but not seek. He was fortunate enough to experience it once. Since it was interrupted, perhaps it was destined by the heavens that he could only rely on Sudden Insight to reach the Heavenly Soul Second Level. As for the rest, he would still need to rely on his own slow cultivation.

"Big Brother, for many years, our father has regretted what he did back then. He has always wanted you to forgive him. Now, he doesn’t ask for your forgiveness, but are you really unwilling to even meet him?" Ao Wuming continued to persuade.

"Stop talking!" Ao Wuxu grew slightly angry.

By this time, Qin Yu had walked over.

"Ao Wuxu, no matter what, he is your father. Can’t you even meet him once? Aren’t you willing to give your biological father a chance to see you?" Qin Yu looked at Ao Wuxu, his face full of expectation.

Ao Wuxu glanced at his younger brother, Ao Wuming, and then at Qin Yu.

"Qin Yu, you don’t understand," Ao Wuxu looked at his brother, "Younger brother, don’t you understand? All those years I spent with the Dragon Clan, I tried every possible way to diligently cultivate. Even though I could keep up with your cultivation speed, our father and other clan members always thought that I, as a Red Dragon, had too little potential. Even if I cultivated to become a Ninth Level Demon Emperor, I could never catch up to you achieving the Eighth Level Demon Emperor."

"Disdainful," Ao Wuxu stared at Ao Wuming, "Younger brother, have you forgotten how long I knelt on that snowy mountain? A full three years, I knelt there hoping they would let me live on the Green Crystal Star, my only home! But what did they think? They thought that I, as a Red Dragon, didn’t deserve to live there. Even though I am a son of the Dragon Emperor, I was still driven out. At that time, what was the Dragon Emperor doing? He didn’t speak up for me. He even ordered me to leave the Green Crystal Star to another planet."

The Green Crystal Star was generally reserved for Upper Level Divine Beasts, Super Divine Beasts, Emperor-level Experts, and their families.

Here, families referred to women and some children; however, as children grew up, they still had to follow their own paths. Back when Ao Wuxu reached the First Level Heavenly Demon Realm, he could no longer live under the Dragon Emperor’s protection and had to leave the Green Crystal Star.

"A full three years!" Ao Wuxu’s body trembled, "When I was young, I still had some expectations of the Dragon Emperor. But during those three years of kneeling on the snowy mountain, I went from hoping to complete despair!"

"Since I left that snowy mountain, I’ve told myself... I, Ao Wuxu, am no longer a descendant of the Dragon Clan. He, Ao Fang, can never expect me to come back and acknowledge him as my father!" Tears shimmered in Ao Wuxu’s eyes as he spoke word by word.
