Chapter 803: Retreat



Chapter 803: Retreat

Starry Universe, Star Ancestor Palace.

The ancestor of Xingyao sat on the throne of the starry sky, and his body emitted a terrifying starlight that made the Lord of the Eight-Striped Universe palpitations. His eyes widened, almost bursting out of his eyes, staring at the person kneeling on one knee below.

This person was dressed in a black robe, as if the night had fallen, deep and mysterious, as if he could swallow up all the light.

The dark night starlight surrounded his body, tiny and dazzling, just like diamonds scattered around the black robe, flashing and jumping, emitting a cold and charming luster.

His face was cold and serious, like ice that had not melted for millions of years. His lips were tightly closed and he never smiled. Just the look in his eyes was enough to make people feel cold.

Although he was kneeling on one knee, his innate majesty was not diminished in the slightest. On the contrary, his temperament like that of the king of the night became more and more prominent, as if all the dark places in the world were under his control and he was the undisputed absolute ruler of the dark starry sky.

"One thousand five hundred years, just one thousand five hundred years, and the Shura Universe has..."

The Star Shining Ancestor kept tapping the armrest of the throne unconsciously with his right hand, muttering to himself. He seemed to be in an incredible trance and could not recover for a long time.

It's not that he doesn't want to believe it, it's just that the news is too unbelievable.

That was an ancient universe that had given birth to nearly fifteen cosmic eras. It was one of the top five ancient universes in their Huanxu Universe River. From the formation of their Huanxu Universe River to the present, no ancient universe of this level had fallen, and in such a short period of time. This completely refreshed his cognition.

But Dark Star has always been loyal to him and would never fool him on such an important matter.

Not to mention, he would know whether this matter was true or false as soon as he checked.

"This is absolutely true. The Shura Universe is most likely already... Hey! It's only been 1,500 years..."

A wave of bitterness spread in the heart of the Xingyao Ancestor, and unknowingly, he felt a bit more grief-stricken.

They are the Star-Shining God Clan and the Eight-Armed Shura Clan, one ranks first among the gods in the Huanxu Universe River, and the other ranks second. They have been fighting openly and secretly for nearly ten cosmic eras, and neither can do anything to the other. They never expected that in the end the two clans would decide the outcome in such an unexpected way.

"Now that the Eight-Armed Shura Clan exists in name only, can my Starry God Clan truly defend the Starry Universe from the hands of that mysterious force?"

Suddenly, the Xingyao Ancestor's heart trembled violently, and an ominous premonition hung over his heart like a dark cloud, and his whole body was shrouded in a layer of gloom.

Although because of the suppression of the mysterious force by the old Shura and a large number of late-stage and peak-stage Nine-Pattern Universe Lords, the comprehensive strength of the Eight-Armed Shura Clan fell to the lowest point and was far inferior to their Star-Shining God Clan, but they completely fell in such a short period of less than 1,500 years. This really made him uneasy and felt like sitting on pins and needles.

"No, this mysterious force is unfathomable. We can't put all our eggs in one basket. Our clan must make every possible plan. Our Xingyao Universe can be destroyed, but the legacy of our Xingyao Protoss must not be broken."

The Star Shining Ancestor clenched his hands into fists, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

"Cang Xing!"

The Star Shining Ancestor gave a soft shout, and his voice echoed in the empty Star Ancestor Palace with an unquestionable majesty.

In an instant, a bright white light streaked across the void like a meteor, illuminating a corner of the Star Ancestor Palace.

When the light gradually dissipated, a person appeared slowly in front of the Star Shining Ancestor.

This person was dressed in a robe as white as snow, pure and flawless, just like the purest starlight in the starry sky.

His face looked middle-aged, with soft yet firm lines, and his features were so delicate that they seemed to have been carefully carved.

His black hair was neatly tied up, with a few strands of hair hanging on both sides of his cheeks, adding a touch of casualness to him.

His whole body exudes a sense of returning to nature, without the slightest air of ostentation. At first glance, he doesn't look like a strong man.

On the contrary, he is more like a gentle and elegant scholar, as if he is well-read in poetry and books, and exudes a faint bookish air.

His deep and gentle eyes are like the calm surface of a lake, yet they seem to hide endless wisdom.

With a kind smile on his face, people can't help but feel close to him.

However, if you feel it carefully, you can sense that beneath that gentle appearance, there is an unfathomable power hidden, like a turbulent undercurrent lurking beneath the calm sea surface.

He bowed respectfully to the Xingyao Ancestor, his voice steady and peaceful, like a clear mountain spring flowing: "Ancestor, what do you want to call me for?"

Xingyao Ancestor's expression was solemn, his gaze locked tightly on Cangxing Ancestor, and he slowly spoke: "Cangxing, the situation is critical now. That mysterious force has completely taken over the Shura Universe in less than 1,500 years. I am afraid that my Xingyao Protoss will not be able to remain unscathed."

He paused slightly, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and continued, "You immediately select some geniuses within the clan, leave the Xingyao Universe as fast as possible, leave the Huanxu Zhouhe, and go to other Zhouhe to open up branches of the clan."

Cang Xingxing Zu was slightly startled, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and listened quietly to the words of the ancestor.

"Even if our Xingyao Universe is destroyed, the heritage of our Xingyao Protoss must not be cut off." The Xingyao Ancestor's voice was low but firm, revealing an irresistible determination. "This mission is of vital importance and must not be lost. You must lead them to find a safe place and quietly grow and develop. Remember, if you are not absolutely sure in the future, you must never return to the Huanxu Universe River. The heritage of our clan is above all else. No matter what, we must pass on our bloodline."

Cang Xing Xing Ancestor nodded solemnly, his expression serious and earnest, his eyes gleaming with a determined light: "Ancestor, rest assured, Cang Xing will not fail in his mission. Even if it costs his own life, he will definitely protect the safety of our people and leave behind the flame of inheritance for our Xingyao Protoss."

The ancestor of Xingyao nodded slightly, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said, "Cangxing, my star clan's important inheritance responsibilities are entrusted to you. When choosing the seeds of Star Fire, you must be cautious and be sure to choose those who are tenacious and talented. They will be the future hope of our clan."

He paused briefly, his gaze fixed on the endless starry sky outside the Xingzu Palace, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, he added, "I will prepare some resources for you. While they won't allow you to dominate the new Zhouhe, they will be enough for you to gain a foothold in the early stages. Also, bring along the heirloom of our clan. It may be able to protect you at a critical moment and help you escape danger."

After saying this, Xingyao Ancestor retracted his gaze and looked at Cangxing Ancestor again, solemnly admonishing him, "Go down and prepare now. Time is running out, so set off as soon as possible. The future of our Xingyao Protoss depends entirely on you. You must not slack off in the slightest."

Cang Xingxingzu bowed respectfully once more and said in a deep voice, "I will remember the teachings of the First Ancestor. I will go and prepare now, and I will definitely live up to the First Ancestor's trust."

After saying this, his figure flashed and disappeared into the Star Ancestor Palace.

"Cang Xing, the future of our clan depends entirely on you!"
