Chapter 225: Gu Changqing's Return

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the sky above Zhulu County, the Heavenly Punishment disappeared and the spatial vortex closed completely.

Peace returned to the world, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Changqing steadied his mind. The aftermath from overexerting his divine rune power made him feel incomparably weak at this moment.

“I underestimated the Otherworldly Demons!”

Gu Changqing forcefully raised his spirit, wanting to gather the divine rune power, but helplessly discovered something unfortunate in the process of resisting the Heavenly Punishment.

His divine rune manifestations had shattered too many times, and it was already very difficult to reassemble it. He needed to wait until his powers slowly recovered before he could use them again.

Gu Changqing looked at the Zhulu County that was destroyed by the aftermath and sighed.

Even if the county was gone, they could still meet again. As long as one person was alive, there was hope.

Wasn't Blue Star passed down from generation to generation like this?

Immediately, a wave of dizziness came. Gu Changqing slowly closed his eyes and fell from the sky.

In the air, several green branches grew out of the space and gently caught him.

She slowly dragged him to the ground.

Yu Qing looked at Gu Changqing in front of him and recalled the person who had carved his name.

Just now, in a trance, he seemed to have seen that person's figure.

Life force covered Gu Changqing's body. Soon, the latter's weak complexion improved.

A stream of light flashed, and Gu Changqing was sent into the forbidden area by Yu Qing.

“Don't disturb him!”

Yu Qing's voice came from outside the area.

Chi Shu saw Gu Changqing being teleported out and didn't know what had happened. He was about to approach but after hearing Yu Qing's words, he silently retreated to the side.

The people who surrounded him looked at Gu Changqing who was in a deep sleep and prayed one after another.

Everyone could feel what he had done for them. If not for him, they would have no future.

Many people shed tears, because until now, no one knew his background.

Such a person had protected them.

Swoosh!

All the totem pillars in the forbidden area shone with bright light at this moment.

Gu Changqing's body slowly flew up from the ground and flew to the center of the forbidden area.

Then, an endless stream of divine rune power surged into his body from the totem pillars.

Gu Changqing did not know any of this was happening.

He only knew he had entered the forbidden area.

What was the situation outside?

Someone raised this question, and everyone fell into deep thought.

“It's fine outside. You can come out now.”

Yu Qing's voice came from outside.

Chi Shu hurriedly teleported out of the forbidden area.

What greeted his eyes was the destroyed county.

More and more people walked out of the forbidden area and looked at their destroyed homes. However, no one complained or lamented.

Everyone silently walked to the ruins and picked up the broken rubble with their hands.

There was nothing better than being alive.

As long as they were alive, they would have a home again, the county could be rebuilt, everyone would be stronger, and their enemies would all be eliminated.

In the forbidden area, Gu Changqing was submerged in the light of divine rune power.

As time passed, the divine rune energy in his body grew stronger and stronger.

The human boy in charge of guarding Gu Changqing was dozing off.

He didn't notice that Gu Changqing, who was in front of him, was shrouded in

a gray fog.

The next moment, his figure slowly disappeared from the forbidden area.

Afterward, the boy seemed to have woken up from a dream. He picked up a pen and a blank book with only seven pages in his hand and began to draw.

On the first page, he drew a group of people looking up at the sky.

On the second page, he drew humans fighting all kinds of monsters.

On the third page, he drew a huge flying county.

On the fourth page, he drew a world-destroying light beam that descended from the sky. The humans in the county were turned to ashes by the light.

On the fifth page, he drew a man standing in the sky above a dilapidated county, looking up at the sky.

On the sixth and seventh pages, the boy scratched his head as if he didn't know what to draw.

He closed the book and raised his head, only to see that Gu Changqing had already disappeared.

The boy hurriedly shouted and ran out of the forbidden area.

Chi Shu quietly looked at the center of the forbidden area, recalling the bits and pieces that happened after Gu Changqing arrived.

He seemed to have come to save Zhulu County. Now that the county was saved, he had left.

Perhaps, this was the arrangement of the heavens.

Chi Shu could only think like this.

Countless people could not accept Gu Changqing's sudden disappearance. They had yet to repay their savior.

However, in the end, they had no choice but to face this outcome.

That boy who was guarding earlier was assumed to be the reason behind their savior's disappearance. He was mocked by many of his friends.

He could only swallow his anger and regret why he had dozed off and had to bury himself in painting after waking up.

“Shenyu Liuguang, what's in the picture album you're holding? Let me see.” A little girl walked up to the boy and reached out her hand for the album. “It's the painting of His Excellency the Star Emperor!”

The boy called Shenyu Liuguang opened the fifth page of the album and showed it to the girl.

On an ancient altar, Gu Changqing slowly opened his eyes. He seemed to have slept for a very long time.

He stretched his back comfortably.

An extremely old voice rang in his ear, “Your Excellency the Star Emperor, you're awake.”

Gu Changqing turned his head and saw a withered old tree. The branches and leaves on it had long fallen off, and even its bark was almost gone.

“You are…Yu Qing!”

Gu Changqing sized him up and finally recognized him.

However, how did Yu Qing, who was fine just now, become like this? Could it be that the Heavenly Punishment had done something?

“After countless years, I can finally see you again!” Yu Qing said emotionally, his voice shaking.

“What do you mean? Hasn't it only been a little while…” Gu Changqing blurted out and immediately shut up.

At this moment, he felt a different aura.

This was…

The aura of the Universe City he had come from.

Could it be that he had returned?

Gu Changqing immediately released his divine sense.

At this moment, he was in a huge city. All kinds of ancient and modern buildings stood in a staggered manner.

However, in the entire city, there were no other living beings other than him and Yu Qing.

“This is Zhulu… City?”

Gu Changqing looked at the familiar altar mark under his feet and asked.

Yu Qing replied, “Yes.”

“How did I get here?” Gu Changqing asked.

“You…” Yu Qing seemed to have thought of something, and his tone carried some ridicule. “Well, it was just like how you suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of me.”

Gu Changqing was silent for a moment. He was probably sent back to his own era when he fell into a deep sleep.

“What happened?” He looked at Yu Qing and asked, “How did you become like this?”

He could feel that the other party's life force was almost gone. Only his divine soul was still struggling to hold on..
