If Only Su Ye Were My Son
After the news about the Heavenly King Hall was released, the Fengying Country was the first to react.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs personally drafted a letter, which was restrained in tone but clear in meaning.
Did your Dong Huang already know that the Secret Realm was going to close?
Why weren't you notified in advance?
You've taken most of the resources from our Feng Ying's Secret Realm. How are you going to calculate this loss?
The reply from the Dong Huang diplomat was textbook-perfect.
They even sent me a video.
"Oh dear, my friend Feng Ying, you've misunderstood. Although we in Dong Huang know Su Ye's purpose in going to the Star Beast World, we're not sure if he can succeed. The Star Beast World Origin has been shattered for tens of thousands of years, and its very essence has long been scattered. You all know how difficult it is to repair. We're just trying our luck, thinking that if it works, we might as well make some preparations in advance to avoid wasting resources after the Secret Realm closes."
Who would have thought?
The diplomat spread his hands with an innocent expression.
"Our Heavenly King Qi Ye of Dong Huang is so amazing! He succeeded so quickly. Su Ye is truly incredible!"
After receiving the Fengying Country, the entire building fell silent.
They wanted to criticize, but what the other person said seemed to make sense.
Who can guarantee that a world shattered for 100,000 years can be repaired?
Even if it can't be repaired, it's not a loss for Dong Huang to move some resources in advance.
But now that they've fixed it, it's a bit unreasonable to blame them for moving resources ahead of time.
If you're feeling angry, consider the current strength of Dong Huang.
I tolerated it.
Other countries gradually realized this as well, but they had no choice but to accept it.
Who can blame them when someone like Su Ye comes along in Dong Huang?
Whose fault is it that they didn't come out?
Moreover, given the current situation, Dong Huang is becoming increasingly powerful. They've even wiped out the Demon Race and dealt with the Star Beast. Who in the Human World would dare to challenge Dong Huang?
We should just stick to clinging to powerful figures.
Then...
Governments around the world have also changed their tune.
They all started promoting themselves heavily...
Humanity has thus entered a true golden age!
Thank you, human hero, Heavenly King Qi Ye!
Their attitude, their enthusiasm... it was as if Su Ye were their own hero.
For a time, the entire Blue Star was filled with celebration.
However, the scene on the front lines of the Star Beast Battlefield is quite different.
This place was originally the front line for humanity to resist the Star Beast, where the most elite troops from various countries were stationed. Every day, Warrior died under the claws of the Star Beast, and every day new wounded soldiers were carried off the front line.
Fresh Blood stained this land, and hatred was etched into the bones of every Warrior.
But now...
The previously frenzied Star Beast suddenly calmed down.
A three-headed Giant Wolf charged halfway, then suddenly stopped, tilted all three heads to the side, flicked its tail, and turned away.
An armored rhinoceros smashed through half of the city wall, then stood there stunned, sniffed, and slowly turned and disappeared into the woods.
A group of flying praying mantises hovered in mid-air for a long time before flapping their wings and dispersing.
The Warrior stood there, weapons in hand, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"We're not playing anymore?"
"They ran away?"
What's going on?
Just then, news from the Heavenly King Hall reached the battlefield.
The communications officer shouted at the top of his lungs across the various positions.
"Su Ye, the Heavenly King Qi Ye of the Dong Huang, has restored life to the Star Beast World! The Star Beast have awakened and are returning to their Star Beast World! There will be no more Star Beast threats!! The Secret Realm passage between humanity and the Star Beast World is about to close completely! Humanity has won! We no longer need to fight the Star Beast!"
A moment of silence fell over the battlefield.
Then...
"Awooo--!!!"
Cheers echoed from one end of the front line to the other, from one trench to another, from one watchtower to another.
The Warrior threw their weapons into the air, hugged each other, jumped and danced, some burst into tears, and some were too excited to speak.
"It's over... it's really over!"
"I've been on the front lines, killing Star Beast for so many years, and I've finally waited for this day!"
"Heavenly King Qi Ye! It was the Heavenly King Qi Ye who saved us!"
"Heavenly King Qi Ye is awesome! Su Ye is awesome!"
The Warrior laughed, shouted, and hugged each other...
A young Warrior pulled out Communicator and projected Light Screen into the air, showing Su Ye leading Xiao Qiyue out of the Secret Realm.
An unknown number of people surrounded the entrance to the Secret Realm area, including reporters, officials, ordinary citizens, and some even rushing forward with large bouquets of flowers.
"Su Ye! Su Ye! Look this way!"
"Heavenly King Qi Ye, may I say a few words?"
"Qi Ye, please sign your autograph!"
Su Ye held Xiao Qiyue's hand and walked forward amidst the crowd, a smile on her face, occasionally nodding to either side.
Xiao Qiyue walked beside him, her long silver hair particularly eye-catching in the sunlight. The two of them together looked like Immortal who had stepped out of a painting.
The Warrior on the battlefield watched this scene with eyes full of reverence and longing.
"See that? That's the Heavenly King Qi Ye!"
"Indeed, he has an imposing presence; he's clearly no ordinary person!"
"Heavenly King Qi Ye is truly amazing; he even healed the Star Beast World."
"That's right. He dealt with the Primordial Demon, and now he's dealing with the Star Beast. He's single-handedly removed both swords hanging over our heads."
"The woman beside him must be Heavenly King Xiao's granddaughter, right? They truly are Immortal!"
A chorus of praise rose and fell.
The younger Warrior clenched their fists, their eyes burning with fury.
"I've made up my mind! From now on, Heavenly King Su Ye will be my role model!"
"One day, I too will become someone who can shoulder the responsibility for Human Race!"
"Good lad, you've got ambition!"
The veteran standing nearby patted him on the shoulder, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
"Our Human Race needs young people like you!"
Looking at the young man in front of me, I couldn't help but think of my own child.
He joined the army to protect the Blue Star and his family. He's hardly seen his children since they were born, and they're always reluctant to leave him when he returns to his unit after leave.
And now...
He will never have to be separated from his family again!
Blue Star now truly at peace.
Thinking of this, the veteran's face flushed with excitement.
"My son is eight years old this year. When I get back, I'll tell him that if he's going to join the army, he should either not do it at all, or he should be like the Heavenly King Qi Ye!"
"Come on, if your son had even a tenth of the Heavenly King Qi Ye's abilities, your ancestors' graves would be emitting auspicious smoke."
"What you're saying is incredible! My ancestors' graves are practically emitting auspicious smoke! My son said he wants to be the next Heavenly King Qi Ye! Hehe, I don't expect him to be that amazing, I just hope he's safe and healthy... Tell me, who are the Heavenly King Qi Ye's parents? They raised such an amazing child, it's truly enviable."
"Absolutely. If I had a son like Heavenly King Qi Ye, I'd be laughing in my sleep."
"Alas, you don't know this, Heavenly King Qi Ye is also a man with a hard life. He got to where he is today through his own hard work and struggle."
This is a battlefield. Although Su Ye 'Su Ye life story has been thoroughly investigated outside, the people here still don't know much about him. Hearing people talking about this, they became curious.
Even the mighty Heavenly King Qi Ye, did he not have a smooth journey?
"Tell me quickly, what exactly happened?"
"Yes, tell me quickly!"
The person who had been expressing his feelings chuckled and then said...
"Speaking of which, the Seven Nights Heavenly King's real name is Su Ye. He is the son of the head of the Su family in Yujing, a true prodigy. But who would have thought that he would be lost right after birth... Eighteen years later, the Su family finally found Su Ye, but who would have thought that the Su family members were all out of their minds? They didn't love their own son, but instead doted on a devilish brat named Su Yang. So Su Ye angrily rebelled against his family..."
