Star Beast World

When I opened my eyes again, the world before me had completely changed.

Xiao Qiyue couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"This... this is the Star Beast World?"

What came into view was an endless wasteland.

The sky was Dark Red, like an old cloth soaked in blood, hanging low overhead, as if forever shrouded in a lingering gloom.

The earth was scorched black, barren of vegetation, and riddled with cracks and huge craters.

A strong stench of death and decay permeated the air.

In the distance, there are several collapsed mountain peaks, their bodies cleaved in two by some force, the cuts as smooth as mirrors.

Further away, some huge skeletons can be vaguely seen, half-buried in Scorched Earth, having been dead for who knows how many years.

The entire Star Beast World was deathly silent, desolate, and devoid of life.

Where is this world teeming with life?

It was clearly a wasteland!

Su Ye sensed the power within his body and couldn't help but frown slightly.

Really...

His strength was suppressed.

He was originally Middle God, but in this world, he can only exert the strength of Early Lower God.

The Rule of the Small World suppress outsiders; this is the Law of Heaven and Earth. Unless one is strong enough to ignore the Rule the Small World, anyone who enters will be slashed.

Xiao Qiyue also felt the suppression and frowned slightly.

"The power has been greatly suppressed."

"That's normal, that's the Rule of the Small World."

Su Ye spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and flicked it to the side.

A gigantic beast, driven mad by its own rage, pounced from the side.

The behemoth was the size of an elephant, covered in Scale Armor, with Scarlet eyes and a Blood Basin Mouth.

Su Ye flicked his finger onto its forehead, and the giant beast roared, flying backward and crashing into a dead tree, where it passed out.

Xiao Qiyue paid no attention to the giant beast, but instead looked into the distance.

All that could be seen was the desolate land...

There were also various giant beasts roaming around.

Some have three heads and six arms, some have bone spurs on their backs, some crawl on the ground, and some hover in the sky.

Without exception, their eyes were all Scarlet, they had lost their minds, and all they knew was to fight and bite each other relentlessly.

The scene was chilling to the bone.

"They've all gone mad."

Su Ye couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Back then, the Demon Race wanted to enslave the Star Beast race, using them as Star Beast fodder to attack the human defenses."

"Under pressure, the Beast Emperor merged with the Origin of this world, seeking to rebel against the Demon Race Progenitor."

"Unfortunately, the difference in strength was too great. Even after merging with the World Origin, the Beast Emperor was still no match for the Demon Race Progenitor."

"Not only did the Beast Emperor perish, but the World Origin was also shattered."

"The entire Star Beast World shattered, and the Star Beast living there lost their minds, turning into mad beasts that only knew how to fight."

"This is why the Beast Tide on Blue Star have been rampant in recent years, one wave after another, and they just can't be suppressed."

"The source is right here."

Xiao Qiyue listened and couldn't help but shake her head.

"If the Beast Emperor hadn't merged with the World Origin... perhaps the Star Beast World wouldn't have shattered, and the Star Beast wouldn't have gone mad."

Su Ye thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"No, even if the World Origin wasn't Destruction by the Beast Emperor, the Demon Race Progenitor would Destruction it."

"What he wants is a Mad Dog that he can use to wreak havoc on Human Race, not a sentient and organized army of Star Beast."

"To that Old Demon, a Star Beast World that are rational, clear-headed, and capable of protecting their people is actually a scourge, and must be eliminated sooner or later. The fact that the Star Beast have gone mad is actually more useful to him."

"Therefore, the Beast Emperor is destined to die no matter what, and the Star Beast World is destined to shatter no matter what. However..."

Su Ye smiled slightly.

"The Beast Emperor merged with the World Origin, and although he couldn't save the Star Beast World, he left it with a sliver of hope for recovery."

"This move is less about fighting the Demon Race to the death and more about gambling."

"I'll bet you, the Star Beast World will one day rise again."

As he spoke, Su Ye raised his hand and opened the Taixu Space.

A spatial vortex opened, and two figures flew out from within.

It was the Little Silver Dragon and Qiongqi.

Qiongqi's Injuries have not fully healed, and its breathing is weak, but it is already able to walk.

As soon as it emerged, it saw this desolate world, and the entire beast was stunned.

The dark golden beast eyes widened little by little, filled with disbelief and sorrow.

"Here... here is..."

Qiongqi's voice trembled.

It had already recognized the place.

When it left its Mother Dragon, the area was full of Azure Heaven trees, crystal-clear rivers, and all sorts of Star Beast running and playing in the forest—flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water—a vibrant place teeming with life.

The Mother Dragon sat atop the highest mountain, overlooking her territory with imposing grandeur.

But now...

Scorched Earth, withered trees, and white bones.

Here, only ruins remain.

Qiongqi's claws dug into the Scorched Earth, and a low whimper escaped its throat.

The Little Silver Dragon, however, was only recently born and knew nothing about anything.

I don't see anything wrong with this.

It flapped its silver wings and flew around the Scorched Earth, its Big Eye full of curiosity.

Digging around here and there, everything seemed new and exciting.

It even flew over to the giant beast that Su Ye had flung away and that had just woken up, and began to tease it playfully.

The giant beast had just woken up and was still a bit dazed. Annoyed by the little guy's antics, it was about to roar.

The Little Silver Dragon chuckled and flicked its tail...

Bang!

It sent the giant beast flying.

Haha, that's fun!

The Little Silver Dragon flew back with a chuckle, landed on Su Ye's shoulder, and nuzzled him affectionately.

"Dad, Dad! Where is this? It feels kind of familiar."

Su Ye stroked the Little Silver Dragon's head; it was cool and felt nice to the touch.

"This is your territory."

"My territory?"

"This is the world your mother once ruled, and the place where you were born."

The Little Silver Dragon had already heard Qiongqi talk about his mother while in the Taixu Space.

Hearing Su Ye say this, its Big Eye filled with tears, and its mouth twitched.

It said, sounding aggrieved.

"I never even met my mother... she's gone..."

That voice was full of grievance and sadness.

Qiongqi, listening nearby, felt a little embarrassed.

Its daughter is willing to call it "Mom" but not "Dad," and instead recognizes Su Ye as her father.

I'm so annoyed.

Xiao Qiyue hugged the Little Silver Dragon tenderly and gently patted her back.

Su Ye then said seriously.

"Although your mother sacrificed herself, she loved you very much. She did everything in her power to protect you, throwing you into the Secret Realm so you could hatch. And your mother sacrificed herself to protect this world and her people; she was truly great."

The Little Silver Dragon raised its head, sobbing, its eyes filled with a mixture of longing and uncertainty.

"Really... really?"

"Real."

Su Ye nodded.

"So, do you want to help your mother and bring life back to this world?"
