Father and Son

The planetary tremor just now was Xia Yu's complete erasure of Ego's consciousness.

The Xia Yu that Ayesha's soul saw in Xia Yu's sea of consciousness was a spiritual entity of Xia Yu bearing Xia Yu's imprint, not Xia Yu's soul body.

Xia Yu's soul is essentially a black hole right now.

However, the moment Xia Yu's spirit imprinted itself on Ayesha, it took away the last remaining portion of her soul particles.

These soul particles were carried directly into Ego's core body.

Ego's consciousness had dissipated, and Xia Yu's spiritual imprint, carrying a portion of Ayesha's soul particles, fiercely entered.

With a flash of golden light, Ayesha's portion of the soul particles sank into Ego's core and disappeared.

From then on, Xia Yu had complete control over the planet and began to draw spiritual and soul energy from Ego's body.

Only a small amount of energy is needed to keep this planet running.

Xia Yu will absorb the rest to strengthen himself, and most importantly, to gain control over the power of the Infinity Stones.

The power that Ego has devoured and absorbed over millions of years is immense.

As the brain of the evil Celestial, it already had the experience of being modified by the Infinity Stones.

Xia Yu used this energy to transform his own Source.

It can contain and utilize more of the Cosmic Origin, that is, the energy of the Infinity Stones.

Just like when he first absorbed the Tesseract, Xia Yu floated above his brain, his body already covered in a thick cocoon of energy.

Xia Yu absorbed energy inside, unaware of the time passing.

However, the surface of the planet has undergone tremendous changes.

When Ego's Source was erased.

The entire planet was in a slow decay, but with Xia Yu taking control...

This planet has once again radiated amazing vitality.

The trees began to grow rapidly, and the air became increasingly fresh.

The massive holes in the ground that reach the Earth’s Core are also beginning to slowly absorb the energy at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The planet's magnetic field returned to normal, and everyone found that the communication system was working properly again.

Three days later, in outer space Ego's Planet, approximately hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

A large spaceship hovered silently in mid-air, gazing at the blue and red planet where the human faces had vanished.

This was Yondu's stronghold, but unfortunately, most of his men were Carnage by Rocket and himself, leaving only one loyal to Yondu at the last moment.

After everyone restored communication, Natasha piloted Xia Star into the spaceship, and together they waited for Xia Yu in outer space.

This was Xia Yu's instruction to Natasha beforehand, to prevent any unforeseen changes before he completely finished.

We urge everyone to stay in outer space and avoid getting close to this planet.

Xia Yu didn't know how long it would take him to take control of the planet, nor did he know what unknown talents or abilities Ego possessed.

So he had instructed Natasha early on that she must wait for his signal before approaching the planet again.

For three days, Star-Lord and his crew piloted a spaceship, scanning the entire planet and even its outer space orbit.

Yondu's body was never found.

Everyone already believed that Yondu had sacrificed himself to Star-Lord.

In accordance with Yondu's last wish, Star-Lord sent the cause of Yondu's death to all the Ravagers in the universe.

This is what Yondu and Rocket said on the way here.

Because of Star-Lord's incident, Yondu was ostracized by all the Ravagers.

He is a disgrace to the Ravagers organization; the Ravagers would never use children as a bargaining chip.

However, Yondu accepted Ego's mission to go to Earth and forcibly bring Star-Lord back.

Although Yondu did not hand over Star-Lord, he broke the Ravagers' rules.

Now that Yondu sacrificed himself for that child, he should regain the respect of the Ravagers.

Three more days passed, and that was the time Star-Lord decided to hold Yondu's funeral.

Unable to find Yondu's body, Star-Lord used a 3D printer to create a fake one.

Everyone lit candles and circled Yondu's 'corpse'.

Star-Lord stood on Yondu's head.

With tears in her eyes, she spoke with deep sorrow.

"When I was little, I watched a TV series where the male lead had a talking car. He was always fighting robots while flirting with beautiful women. I wished he would be my dad."

"Now I suddenly realize that although Yondu doesn't have a talking car, he does have a flying arrow, and although his voice isn't pleasant, his whistling is absolutely beautiful."

"He also flirts with beautiful women and fights with robots. It turns out that the Hero on TV really became my dad, only the Yondu version."

I have a wonderful dad.

Sometimes, what you search for your whole life may have always been right beside you; you just haven't noticed it.

Star-Lord choked out those words, while Gamora beside him and Nebula in the corner exchanged a silent glance.

This statement likely had a profound impact on them.

Following the Ravagers' tradition, they pushed Yondu's 'body' into the incinerator at the tail of the ship.

Yondu's corpse turned into a faint golden light and floated out of space.

Star-Lord lowered his head and remained silent, and everyone else joined him in a moment of silence for Yondu.

Suddenly, a bright light shone outside, and one spaceship after another rushed in from all directions of space.

It was as if we had arranged a time together.

They all remained silently positioned not far from the tail of Yondu's spaceship.

They blotted out the sky, with different types of spaceships spewing out different flames.

They all remained in the endless void.

Suddenly, one of the spaceships burst into a burst of dazzling fireworks.

As if it were a signal, all the spaceships launched fireworks of different colors.

It illuminated this empty space.

"This is the Ogord's Light, the greatest funeral for the Ravagers. The leader has finally gained the Ravagers' recognition."

Yondu's only surviving henchman was now sobbing uncontrollably as he looked outside.

Inside all the spaceships outside, the entire force of Ravagers from different parts of the universe clenched their right fists and slammed them hard into their left shoulders.

This is the highest form of respect.

"Quill, there's something you'd better see for yourself; it's very important."

Natasha waved to Star-Lord.

Although Star-Lord was somewhat annoyed that Natasha had interrupted him, he still believed that Natasha must have something important to say.

So they followed Natasha to a room on the spaceship. Natasha pointed to the room, smiled without saying a word, and silently walked away.

Star-Lord pushed open the door and went in, looking completely surprised.

Music started playing in the room.

Star-Lord had heard this song before.

This is a song by a United Kingdom singer from 1970.

Father and Son

It's not time to make achange...

The lyrics are like an old father talking to his son.

Upon hearing the lyrics, Star-Lord couldn't help but burst into tears.

Turning to find the source of the sound, I discovered a player I'd never seen before, much smaller than my own Walkman.

There was also a screen displaying the sound, which was currently plugged into the spaceship's speakers, as that was the source of the sound.

Star-Lord curiously approached for a look, and sure enough, it was it. The small screen not only displayed the song title, but also showed the lyrics in sync with the music.

At that moment, a blue-skinned man in the corner, shirtless and covered in thick bandages, sat up.

"Hey son, don't think you're the only one who knows how to listen to music. This is called an MP3 player; it can store three hundred songs..."
