He Came Out

The border of the demon world, the wilderness.

The scorching sun hung high in the sky.

Qu Yao had been walking in the desert for quite some time when she heard a loud noise. Everything in front of her went black, and she lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, Qu Yao heard a distant sound. It was like a distant cloud becoming nearer and fainter, which appeared to be moving toward her ears. As she struggled to open her eyes, a beam of golden light pierced her like a sharp blade.

She endured the discomfort and clearly saw a shadow from the source of light. The man was tall and slender. With his index finger, he reached out his hand and gently tapped the space between her brows. When the golden light brightened again just as she was about to see the man's face clearly, she instinctively closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, everything had vanished.

The sky was dark.

This was the first time she saw stars after entering the demon world. The stars twinkled faintly like icicles in the sky, bright enough to make Qu Yao feel heartache.

Stars...

At the time, her sister initially tricked her into looking at the stars, then cursed her, and she became a half-human half-beast that everyone yelled at. She sighed and gazed up at the starry sky. The laughter in her throat gradually choked, and the tears in the corners of her eyes slid down the desert. After a while, she wiped the tears off her face contemptuously and let out an unconcerned lament.

She could not, however, die no matter how hard the torments were. Even the netherworld didn't seem willing to take her in. She pondered coldly.

How could there be a place in heaven or earth that Qu Yao couldn't visit if she could take control of the demon world?

She felt the blood in her body boiling, and she held something in her hands. Her body's energy directed her to raise that object in her hands. It was a blood-red sword. Ebony and blood-red qi lingered around the sword.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and she couldn't stop trembling. Surging power continued to rush toward her heart.

This power and the sword in her hand were in perfect harmony. The world changed in the blink of an eye. In the pitch-black night sky, a strange red colour began to appear. Even the stars began to gravitate toward Qu Yao.

She couldn't control the force in her body anymore. She screamed at the dark sky. Her voice shook thousands of kilometres of desert. The sand was like thousands of drumbeats hitting the drum's surface. The nebula in the sky erupted and scattered into the globe, shaking the demon world and the heavenly realm. The human world's mountains and rivers also crumbled.

The various celestial gods sensed the changes in the world. They were alarmed and panicked. Some of them gathered together to ask what had happened.

The Divine Lord of Star Constellation ran to the God of Destiny's Hall in tears. He began to yell before entering the door, "Who shook the world and messed up my astrolabe!! All of my stars have fallen into the human world! People have now been crushed to death by the stars in many places. There are also numerous places on fire!"

The God of Destiny held the fate of all life on the planet in his hands. As a result, as long as a person's life defied logic, everyone would naturally seek him out.

His expression was also not pleasant at the time. "What should come, can't be avoided in the end!" he said as he shook his head and gazed at the deity of light's palace.

The Divine Lord of Star Constellation was confused. "Who wants to come?"

He followed God of Destiny's gaze and discovered that the God of Light had actually walked out of the hall. He pointed in surprise at the God of light and stammered for a long time, unable to speak.

The God of Destiny pressed his excited hand down. "I didn't see wrongly. He's out."

When the Divine Lord of Star Constellation was nervous, he would stutter. Even if he was just babbling for a while, only the God of Destiny in the heavenly human world could accurately understand what he wanted to say.

The God of Light they mentioned was Bai Xihe, the Lord of All Gods. He was the creator and the source of all life in the universe. He was the first god of light to appear after the separation of heaven and earth, so he held supreme power.

Another crack erupted in the sky before everyone could recover from Bai Xihe's retreat. At the boundary of the demon world, a blood-red light pierced the wilderness.
