Yama's Wedding
Seeing Shu being treated this way, Yao Guang's heart ached deeply.
She had never imagined that the elder brother she had always looked up to could have such a side.
This scene pierced Yao Guang's heart profoundly.
The Dragon Lord continued to torment Shu's Starlight, and Shu's Starlight emitted waves of painful sounds.
"Dragon Lord, don't go too far!"
Watching Shu in agony, Yao Guang and several other Star Lords shouted angrily at the Dragon Lord.
"Too far? What does that even mean? You think I'm going too far? Then how about this?" Hearing Yao Guang's words, the Dragon Lord's subordinates intensified their efforts, as if they wanted to torment Shu right before their eyes.
The Dragon Lord's claws radiated a strange light, which gradually enveloped the light surrounding Shu.
As the light on Shu grew weaker and weaker, Yao Guang and the others below couldn't help but feel anxious. If even the Starlight's glow faded away, then Shu would truly be beyond saving.
Even now, although Shu Xing Jun had forgotten their memories together, as long as there was still a glimmer of brightness in his Starlight, Yao Guang and the others would be willing to wait for thousands of years without complaint.
"Stop!" Yao Guang fixed her gaze on the Dragon Lord's hand.
Yao Guang dared not move an inch below. She feared that any action she took might provoke the Dragon Lord, unleashing all his fury onto Shu.
At this moment, Yao Guang could only closely watch the Dragon Lord's movements.
Yao Guang was fixated on the Dragon Lord, completely unaware of the movements of the other five Star Lords. They exchanged glances, and it was clear they had come to a resolute decision.
“Yao Guang, if we’re not around anymore, you must take care of yourself! Don’t do anything foolish!” Kaiyang said to Yao Guang.
“What?” Why was Kaiyang suddenly saying such things?
“Kaiyang!” At that moment, Yao Guang realized with horror that she couldn’t move at all. She could only remain in place. What was happening?
“Kaiyang, what are you all doing?” Yao Guang asked the other four. It was obvious they were all looking at her; they must be up to something! But what did they want? A sense of unease crept into Yao Guang's heart. No! No! She didn’t want this.
“Yao Guang, you are the youngest among us. As your brothers, we will protect you!” Xuan gently said to Yao Guang.
“No! No! I don’t want you to protect me.” At this point, Yao Guang could barely speak. Shadows of dread loomed in her heart. Were even these people going to leave her?
“Yao Guang, although I love teasing you, you are my favorite!” Kaiyang wiped away his tears and smiled at Yao Guang.
I know, I’ve always known. Even though you love to bully me, I like you the most. Not just you; I cherish all my brothers!
I am fortunate that I wasn’t born alone in that chaos but had the company of all six of you. In these many years of painful and desperate darkness, without you all, how could I have endured until now?
So please, don’t leave me alone in this world!
Yao Guang’s heart cried out in anguish, but her tears gradually blurred her vision. She desperately wiped her eyes, but the tears just kept flowing. No matter how much she wiped, she couldn’t clean them away!
The five of them exchanged glances and made their decision. They took one last deep look at Yao Guang. This was someone they would protect with their lives, but it seemed that in the long years ahead, she would be left alone again. Though their hearts were heavy with reluctance, for Yao Guang’s sake, they were willing!
“Since ancient times, the Big Dipper Seventh Star has lived and died together. I wish to transform into star souls to illuminate the five continents and pray above. Willingly sacrificing my life to channel all my strength into Starlight—kill!”
With this statement, the five Star Lords transformed into five beams of light, shooting directly into the Nine Heavens.
All their energies converged into the core of the Dragon Lord's claw, the brilliance intensifying to such an extent that it forced the Dragon Lord to release his grip on the core.
The original light grew larger and gradually coalesced into a massive sphere of light, which surged forward at lightning speed towards the heart of the Dragon Lord. Seeing the sphere approaching, the Dragon Lord activated his Shield to withstand its power, resulting in a stalemate between the two forces.
Above, six stars of the Big Dipper Seventh Star began to show signs of exhaustion, while the light on the ground grew increasingly vibrant, a stark contrast to each other.
"I never expected your Big Dipper Seventh Star to be so fierce!" The Jade Emperor, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, was startled by the intensity of the light. Upon closer inspection, he realized that all six stars of the Big Dipper were burning their Starlight to defeat the Dragon Lord.
It seemed he had underestimated the Big Dipper Seventh Star; this time, he had made a mistake.
Fate was indeed difficult to alter; even the Sky High Jade Emperor could not change destiny. Now, only Star Lord Yao Guang remained. Perhaps it was truly fated that Greedy Wolf would break fate while Yao Guang would establish it.
The sphere of light continued to grow larger, and cracks began to appear in the Shield before the Dragon Lord. The Dragon Lord was taken aback; this Shield had protected him during a great battle in the past, allowing him to exit unscathed. Yet now, it was being overwhelmed by the light from the six stars of the Big Dipper.
With a loud crash, the Shield shattered into pieces and fell into the sea.
The sphere showed no signs of slowing down as it plunged directly into the heart of the Dragon Lord, piercing through him.
"Ahhh... ahhh!" The Dragon Lord screamed in agony as he was struck in his heart. His roar reverberated through the air, shaking both the Aquatic Race below and the Divine Weapons and Celestial Generals above.
Yao Guang watched with tear-filled eyes as everyone was captivated by the Dragon Lord's pained cries. However, only Yao Guang noticed that what had once been a brilliant sphere of light was now slowly dimming.
This was his brothers' Starlight, and as it burned through its last remnants of star soul, it ultimately lost all its strength. The six stars of the Big Dipper and the sphere in the sky both exhibited signs of fading and exhaustion.
When Xue arrived at this scene, this is what he witnessed.
It felt as if he had returned to millions of years ago. The Candle Dragon turned to himself and said, "Fate must be followed, it cannot be ignored!"
That man had vanished from both his and the Phoenix Empress's lives, leaving no trace of thought behind.
Now history was replaying itself before his eyes, and this time the one being abandoned was Yao Guang.
"Yao Guang, Yao Guang, pull yourself together. It's Xue. Please look up at me."
Xue hurriedly descended from the air and embraced Yao Guang in his arms.
The once vacant gaze of Yao Guang finally returned to life at Xue's heartfelt call.
"Xue... is it really you? Is it truly you?" Yao Guang looked at Xue, slowly asking this question as if she were drawing upon her last ounce of strength.
"It’s me. It’s me, Yao Guang. Look at me; I’ve come back to be with you!" Xue gazed at Yao Guang with deep concern. He understood the pain of being abandoned, especially witnessing a loved one disappear right before his eyes. He began to resent himself, wishing he could have returned sooner to prevent things from escalating so badly.
Shu, your heart is truly ruthless! You knew how much harm your departure would cause Yao Guang, yet you still abandoned her. Xue looked at Yao Guang and began to worry whether he could fulfill Shu's commission.
Even with his companionship, there would always be an unhealable scar in Yao Guang's heart!
"Xue, are we dreaming? Please take me out of this dream! I beg you, bring me out of this nightmare!" Yao Guang looked at Xue, her eyes suddenly sparkling with a glimmer of hope as she tightly grasped his arm.
"Yao Guang, please pull yourself together! Don’t do this!" Xue said painfully to Yao Guang.
In Yao Guang's hollow gaze, there was nothing; she felt cold both inside and out. This was a dream; everything she saw was not real, not real!
"Yao Guang, Yao Guang, even if Shu and the others have left, I am still here by your side!" Xue said as he held Yao Guang close.
"No, no!" Yao Guang suddenly pushed Xue away in a frenzy, shouting at him, "Liar, liar! You're deceiving me! My brothers must still be in their palace, waiting for me to return!"
Yao Guang clutched her head and cried out loudly.
At that moment, the Dragon Lord, who had been writhing in agony in the air, also came to a halt. The piercing pain that had stabbed into his heart almost drove him mad. He never expected that these six Star Lords would choose such a mutually destructive method to defeat him. It was a pity; if he had possessed the same magical power he once had, he might not have been able to endure this heart-wrenching pain. However, after years of diligent cultivation, his skills had reached a higher level. Now, although he felt pain, it was still within his limits.
Nevertheless, this blow had indeed severely depleted his vitality. It seemed that once he resolved this matter at hand, he would have no choice but to retreat and continue his seclusion.
The Dragon Lord pondered; all he needed to do now was resolve the immediate issue.
Looking at the current situation, it seemed he no longer needed to intervene. Hearing Yao Guang's loud cries, it appeared that this woman was not much of a threat.
Xue grasped Yao Guang's shoulders and said to her, "Yao Guang, pull yourself together! Even if they are gone now, you still have me!"
Listening to Xue's words, Yao Guang felt no comfort in her heart; she only wished that everything she had seen and experienced was a lie.
Yao Guang stared blankly at Xue's face. No, it shouldn't be like this! She shouldn't be feeling this way! "Xue, shouldn't we go join my brothers? They just left me here all alone; it's really so lonely!"
Xue was alarmed; it seemed Yao Guang's star soul was on the verge of dissipating again. He looked at her and said urgently, "No, that's not how it is! Yao Guang, listen to me. Shu and the other Star Lords were following their fate; their destinies are unavoidable!"
"And what about me? I am also one of the Star Lords of the Big Dipper Seventh Star. Shouldn't I follow my fate too?" Yao Guang cried as she spoke to Xue. Seeing her tears fall made Xue's heart ache deeply.
"Yao Guang, don't say that! You still have me. Shu entrusted you to me before they left; I will take good care of you from now on!" Xue vowed earnestly to Yao Guang.
"What? Xue, what do you mean?" The previously despondent Yao Guang suddenly shot Xue a look filled with hatred upon hearing his words.
Under Yao Guang's gaze filled with such animosity, Xue took a few steps back. No, don’t look at me like that! Don’t give me such a hateful look!
“Yao Guang, I, I…”
“Did you already know that my brother and the others would do this?!” Yao Guang glared at Xue, stepping closer as he confronted him.
Xue couldn’t bear the hatred in Yao Guang’s eyes and could only nod sadly.
“Hahahahaha.” Yao Guang laughed bitterly.
“Yao Guang, please don’t do this!” Xue looked at Yao Guang, heartbroken by his current madness.
“Don’t do this? Then what should I do? My brothers have just disappeared before my eyes, and the one I thought was my closest lover has conspired with my brothers to deceive me!” Yao Guang’s heart was filled with an indescribable sorrow. On one hand, his brother's departure caused him immense pain; on the other hand, it was because Xue and Shu had kept this from him that he found himself in such a situation.
“Yao Guang, Shu and I just wanted you to live well. The other Star Lords also wish for your happiness!” Xue looked at Yao Guang and even felt some regret for having hidden the truth from him. Perhaps he should have told her.
“For my own good? Is this how you show concern for me? Letting me watch them die while I’m left alone in this world—what’s the meaning of that? Is this really for my own good?”
Yao Guang shouted loudly at Xue. Is this really for her good? If so, then she didn’t want this kind of goodness! All she wanted was for her brothers to always stand behind her! She wanted to turn around and see them there, not to be abandoned alone in this world.
“Yao Guang, I’m sorry!” (To be continued.)
