Above the mysterious river.
Huang Di’s warning made everyone realize that something was wrong.
Although Zhang Hu was anxious, he wasn’t stupid. He grabbed Huang Di’s arm.
“No! If we want to leave, we’ll leave together. If I take them away, what will you do? Are you going to distract us to look for you again?”
In his desperation, Zhang Hu no longer cared about his manners.
He pushed Huang Di into the crowd and said anxiously, “If someone wants to go, then we’re all going together. No one can be left alone!”
Huang Di raised his hand and retracted the barrier. He said solemnly, “Alright, let’s not waste any time. We’ll leave now!”
The group quickly passed through the foggy area and flew straight ahead. In a short while, they arrived at the other side of the river.
As expected, this was still a natural place, and there was no sign of Gu Changqing.
What happened ten days ago was like a dream to everyone.
However, Gu Changqing had really disappeared into the long river.
Zhang Hu walked around the riverbank a few times, his heart filled with grief and indignation.
“We should have come earlier. We shouldn’t have listened to Senior Huang. If we had come earlier, we might have been able to find the traces left behind by Boss. However, it’s not too late now. I swear that I must find Boss, or else…
His eyes reddened as he grabbed his hair in frustration. The veins on his neck bulged.
Slap!
The usually calm Vermilion Bird was furious. She raised her hand and slapped Zhang Hu.
“Otherwise, we’ll all disappear together, right?”
“What did Boss say before he left? If he wasn’t around, he told us to listen to
Huang Di’s arrangements. It was Huang Di, not you!”
Zhang Hu blushed. He knew that he had lost his mind and that it was inappropriate for him to say that. However, this wasn’t a reason to not look for their Boss.
Zhao Feng and Wu Rui stepped forward, one on each side and separated the two.
“Boss is missing, and everyone is anxious. Can’t we just talk nicely?”
Huang Di looked at the river’s surface indifferently and said calmly, “Gu Changqing is a person with great luck. It’s impossible for anything to happen to him. He must have been delayed by some fortuitous encounter. Since the target is Zhulu City, then we’ll go to Zhulu City. Perhaps we can meet up with him there!”
Huang Di’s calmness calmed Zhang Hu down.
Everyone began to release their divine sense, exploring as they advanced. However, many days later, they suddenly discovered a shocking fact.
Zhulu City seemed to have disappeared!
Or rather, it didn’t exist at all.
At this time, it was not far from Universe City’s closing time. The group was caught in a dilemma.
Should they continue searching or prepare to leave?
If they didn’t get out before the city closed, they would be trapped here for a billion years!
Everything in Zhulu County was developing toward prosperity.
On this day, Gu Changqing walked out of the forbidden area.
The people who were already familiar with his habits did not take the initiative to surround him and greet him.
This was because everyone knew that this mighty figure who had saved everyone did not seem to like being praised.
Spreading out his divine sense, he explored every corner of this space.
There were no more Otherworldly Demons. Even the space beasts had been found and killed by the human warriors.
It was as if there were no more enemies.
However, Gu Changqing understood that the stronger ones were just hiding.
It was not that they did not exist.
After some investigation, he still could not find the river he came from.
Counting the time, there wasn’t much left before Universe City closed, and he was still trapped in this place.
If it closed, the next time it descended would be a billion years later.
What would Blue Star look like after a billion years?
Gu Changqing fell into deep thought. However, he immediately felt relieved.
With Huang Di’s current battle prowess, there was no one in the entire universe who could rival him.
With a potential index close to 31,000 points, no matter what kind of enemy he faced, he could easily crush them.
Together with Zhang Hu and the others, their potential index had already exceeded 20,000.
Even if he wasn’t around, Huang Di could still sweep across the universe.
Not to forget that there were also the divine rune energy crystals and equipment they had collected from Universe City.
Those materials could also nurture a large number of experts for Blue Star and the human race.
Gu Changqing didn’t have anymore worries for Blue Star. It was just that he couldn’t let it go.
It was not only the planet, but also the human race as well as his little home.
Gu Yanyan, this daughter whom he had yet to give enough fatherly love to. And Lin Yueyao.
If he couldn’t get out, he would be trapped in Universe City for a billion years.
Gu Changqing felt the most guilty toward the mother and daughter.
He believed that Huang Di and Zhang Hu would protect them for those billion years. They would even wait for his return at all costs.
However, who would be willing to endure a billion years of separation?
There were still 10 days left until the city closed.
Gu Changqing sat in the middle of Zhulu County.
An old tree squinted at him and suddenly spoke, “Your Excellency the Star
Emperor, why do I feel a small trace of my aura from you?”
The wrinkled bark on the old tree trunk made it impossible to see its expression.
“Your aura?
Gu Changqing was stunned. He probed his entire body in confusion, but he did not find anything at all.
He replied faintly, “Are you mistaken?”
The old tree shook its trunk and waved its hand in a human-like manner. “I can’t be wrong! I’m 100% sure that you have my aura on you, and it’s from two months ago.”
Seeing the tree’s affirmative answer, Gu Changqing recalled what had happened two months ago.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, “What’s your name?”
The old tree was stunned for a moment, and then said leisurely, “I originally didn’t have a name, but someone once carved one on my body and told me that it was mine.”
As he spoke, two ancient words slowly appeared on the trunk of the old tree.
On it was written, “Yu Qing.”
Seeing this name, Gu Changqing’s face revealed a surprised expression.
The tree saw his reaction and hurriedly asked, “Your Excellency the Star
Emperor, am I right?”
Gu Changqing couldn’t help but laugh. Compared to the Azure Emperor Clan, he had a direct relationship with this old tree Yu Qing.
Perhaps Yu Qing was the Azure Emperor Clan’s ancestor. However, it was a fact that the clan betrayed Blue Star.
Two months ago, Yu Hao, that clan’s ancestor, was beaten by him outside the Rebirth Bridge.
No one would have thought that he would actually meet the Azure Emperor Clan’s true old ancestor in this place.
What time, luck, and fate!
Gu Changqing couldn’t help but feel emotional.
He didn’t answer Yu Qing’s question because the first thing he wanted to do was kill that bitch, Diqin Naxi.
The second matter was to exterminate the Azure Emperor Clan. However, saying such a thing in front of Yu Qing would be a little too much.
Gu Changqing changed the topic and asked, “Who carved words on your body and gave you your name?”
However, just as he finished speaking, spatial fluctuations suddenly swept up in the sky above Zhulu County.
A black vortex with a diameter of nearly a million feet slowly formed. “This is… The aura of an Otherworldly Demon!”
Gu Changqing’s eyes were like lightning as he looked at the sky.
The aura flowing out of the black spatial vortex was incompatible with the current space.
Such an aura could actually come from an Otherworldly Devil.
“After waiting for so long, are you finally willing to attack again?”
The strange runes on his body shone, and the grayish-white armor with strange runes appeared. In the sky, Divine Rune Concretization descended. The world was filled with killing intent, signifying that a great battle was about to descend..
