"When he was born, I blessed him with an ability called <Reanimation>."
"I am not Mother Chaos and I can not go against the Rules of Chaos, so bringing back a dead back to life is impossible for me."
"The <Reanimation> is an ability that has the potential to bring a dead back to life, however, because of the Rules of Mother Chaos, it lost this effect, making it impossible to bring a dead back to life. However, as long as a person still has a breath left and sign of vitality in their body, <Reanimation> will be activated on its own, causing that person to instantly recover completely as if they are reborn."
"Emperor Star Forest relied on my blessing to become who he is today."
"In this crystallized state, Emperor Star Forest's vitality and life force has been suppressed completely, however, he is not dead. Because of <Reanimation>, he is soon going to wake up. At that time, the crystalization state will be broken."
"I that little girl was as strong as Emperor Star Forest or slightly weaker, then her blessings <Crystalization> could have completely suppressed my blessing <Reanimation>. However, there is a vast gap between their strength, causing her blessing to become weaker and unable to suppress the blessing I blessed Emperor Star Forest with."
"Previously, his anger could have destroyed me completely. Moreover, I can also feel the evil of Abyssals in his soul. It is clear he has come in contact with an abyssal and made some kind of deal with them. Such a person could bring catastrophe anywhere he goes. It is better for him to die than live. So I ask you to destroy his soul while he is still in a weakened state. If you wait any longer, the <Reanimation> will be activated automatically and Emperor Star Forest will recover completely. At that time, destroying his soul with your level of Soul Force will be impossible. So you better hurry."
With that, the Morning Stars' voice abruptly ended coming. Ye Xiao tried to ask a few more questions but he got no response from the Morning Stars.
Ye Xiao frowned but did not delve too much into this matter. He silently nodded and contemplated, trying to make a decision.
Very soon, he knew what he has to do.

Everything about Emperor Star Forest was suppressed to the lowest point, including but not limited to his cultivation, energy, and soul force. However, even in this weakened state, Ye Xiao was not powerful enough to kill Emperor Star Forest with a single attack.
He had to cast the Soul Destruction ability seven times continuously, and only then did he manage to destroy Emperor Star Forest's soul, killing him completely.
For the people in the Land of Morning Stars, an era of legend met his end in such a strange way that no one would have ever imagined.
The moment Emperor Star Forest died, Ling Yue frowned. She seemed to have felt something but could not say what she just felt. In the end, she shook her head and turned to look at Xu Lingzi.
Xu Lingzi smiled at her and nodded. Then she turned to Lin Hao and Gu Xingyue, saying, "Don't worry, the danger has been erased completely. You no longer have to worry about Emperor Star Forest's fury or anything."
Then she seemed to have thought of something and asked, "From your conversation with Ling Xiaolong, I guess you came from a Source Universe. Right?"
Lin Hao did not think much and nodded his head. Anyway, the Heavens have already been destroyed and there is nothing Xu Lingzi could do even if she want to. So, Lin Hao did not hesitate to reply to her. But he was also puzzled when he heard Xu Lingzi calling Ye Xiao, Ling Xiaolong.
He was puzzled and confused, so he asked, "Who is this Ling Xiaolong?"
"Weren't you talking to him a while ago, and he suddenly disappeared!" Xu Lingzi raised her brows and said in a low voice, feeling that something is not right. Previously, Ling Xiaolong and Lin Hao hugged each other, and then they were talking as if they have known each other for a very long time. Why was he not recognizing Ling Xiaolong then?
Could it be that Ling Xiaolong's real name is something else, and he hid his identity from everyone?
"Oh, so he is Ling Xiaolong!"
Lin Hao nodded in understanding and did not show any kind of emotion such as confusion. Only realization flashed in his eyes that soon died down. Lin Hao did not show any interest in knowing why Xu Lingzi was calling Ye Xiao by a different name.
And this was mainly because Lin Hao had already lived for millions of years and had a great deal of experiences. He knew how to hide his emotions and could think of many reasons in an instant as to why Ye Xiao was called Ling Xiaolong.
The result he came up with was that Ye Xiao was living in Chaos with a different name. Or he changed his name to avoid the pursuit of a powerful enemy.
There were many reasons he came up with in an instant, and this is why he was able to stay calm even in such a situation, not showing any emotion on his face and letting Xu Lingzi guess something out of the ordinary.
Xu Lingzi was puzzled but no longer continued to ask about Ye Xiao. Instead, she introduced herself and offered him, "I came from the Land of Blue Valley, a land a level higher than the Land of Morning Stars, with countless Chaos Overlord Saints and Nine Vast Origin Sea Realm warriors ruling various regions of the Land."
"There are very few overlord forces with Origin Fusion Sovereign guarding them, and I am one such expert. The overlord force I belong to is called Fragrant Peach Fairyland and it is an Overlord Land for only women. But I can make you an exception. Bring your disciple with me and become a member of my Fragrant Peach Fairyland. This little girl will still be your disciple, but you could use the resources of my Fairyland to nurture her and help her grow much stronger, fully awakening her potential."
Although Xu Lingzi's offer might sound selfless, she was actually thinking for the benefit of her Fragrant Peach Fairyland.
She has no interest in Lin Hao, however, she has witnessed Gu Xingyue's talent with her own eyes. Just like Emperor Star Forest, she also thought Lin Hao does not have much to teach Gu Xingyue and he was only lucky to become her master.
However, Gu Xingyue's earlier reaction made her realize that if she even tried to separate Lin Hao from Gu Xingyue, Gu Xingyue would rather die than come to her fairyland and become her subordinate.
So, she could only provide an olive branch at Lin Hao, hoping to rope in Gu Xingyue as well.
And she was confident in making Gu Xingyue leave Lin Hao's side slowly in the future by providing all the resources she wants.
As the Lotus of Chaos told Ye Xiao long ago, no strong person is a good person. As long as it comes to their benefit, they would do anything in their power.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYu Hao, Yu Rong, and Yu Feng were such people. Yu Tian was also one such person. Demon Emperor and Emperor Star Forest were also such people, and so is Xu Lingzi.
Seeing Gu Xingyue's potential and her terrifying talent when it comes to swords, she did not hesitate to play a game in order to rope Gu Xingyue in.
However, she underestimated Lin Hao.
"No, thanks!"
Lin Hao refused her bluntly without giving it a second thought. Then he looked at Gu Xingyue and said, "Xingyue, let's go!"
And just like that, he left the scene.
Ye Xiao looked at Xu Lingzi and others and then disappeared as well. His arrival and departure remained completely unknown to everyone.
"Leader Xu, are you letting them go just like that?"
Seeing the disappearing backs of Lin Hao and Gu Xingyue, one of the elders of Fragrant Peach Fairyland asked hesitantly.
Xu Lingzi sighed and then said, "Yes, she is very talented, but she is relying on that person Lin Hao too much. If we forcefully bring her with us, I am afraid we will only receive her hatred and anger. When a perilous time comes, she might betray our fairyland instead of helping us. She will definitely become a powerful expert in the future. So let's not offend this future expert."
Everyone sighed and nodded. They knew Xu Lingzi has made a wise decision.
At this time, Ling Yue came to Xu Lingzi and said, "Master, I sensed someone was spying on us earlier."
Xu Lingzi frowned and asked, "Do you know who that person is?"
"Although you found him familiar, I was unable to tell who that person really is. Waves of spatial energy around that person were disrupting my senses, making me helpless."
