"However, I still have another way to close the stargate, which is to destroy the star realm."
"Since the gate cannot be repaired, let's blow up the house. Hehe, am I very smart?"
"......"
Mu Qingqing and Elder Han were both stunned.
This Star Emperor was truly bizarre!
"Don't look at me like that, I'm also heartbroken. But the current star realm is just an empty shell. The Nether God Clan here has already been wiped out, and all the rare treasures have been sent away."
"Therefore, there is no need to keep this star realm."
The Star Emperor said with a sense of justification.
"......"
Mu Qingqing and Elder Han's mouths twitched a few times.
Alright, you are the master of the star realm, so you have the final say.
"Alright, little girl, you must have participated in the East Continent Grand Competition to enter the star realm, right?"
"Speaking of which, I haven't given away much in this session of the East Continent Grand Competition. These two treasures are my final gifts, take them!"
"Uh, aren't you so poor that you only have spirit stones left?"
For a moment, Mu Qingqing didn't know how to retort to this Star Emperor senior.
He was acting poor earlier, and now he can casually give things away. This change is too drastic.
Mu Qingqing didn't know how to retort to this Star Emperor senior for a moment.
The Star Emperor senior rolled his eyes and glared at her.
"Can't I keep some treasures for myself? If you don't want them, little girl, I'll take them back."
"Don't, don't take them if they're free."
Mu Qingqing quickly stopped him. Although this Star Emperor senior was somewhat indecent, he was still a peak Saint Emperor realm expert, so the treasures he left behind must be good.
"Hmph! Seeing how sincere you are, I'll reluctantly bestow them upon you."
The Star Emperor senior said with a proud demeanor.
Mu Qingqing felt speechless. This Star Emperor senior was truly good at putting on an act.
After speaking, the Star Emperor reached out and grabbed the void. The sixteen stars in the galaxy of the star realm instantly emitted dazzling light.
They then gradually shrunk, transforming into a chain radiating starlight, appearing in the Star Emperor's hand.
"Little girl, this chain is a top-grade True Artifact, named Sixteen Star Moon. I spent a lot of materials and found top-tier blacksmiths to forge it."
The Star Emperor senior said with pride.
However, Elder Han and Mu Qingqing remained calm, showing no signs of surprise.
This made the Star Emperor feel a bit awkward.
"Uh... aren't you guys going to exclaim?"
"Exclaim about what?"
Mu Qingqing blinked and asked in confusion.
The Star Emperor senior: "......"
Is this little girl genuinely ignorant or pretending to be ignorant?
This is a top-grade True Artifact, and she doesn't even exclaim.
Did she forget to exclaim because she was too shocked?
Thinking of this, the Star Emperor senior couldn't help but doubt his own guess.
"Little girl, aren't you a bit too indifferent? This is a top-grade True Artifact!"
"I have top-grade True Artifacts too, and even more than you!"
Mu Qingqing said with a smile, looking at the Star Emperor.
The Star Emperor: "......"
He found it hard to believe.
The next second, five True Artifacts flew out of Mu Qingqing's Sumeru Ring, hovering in front of her.
Among them were not only top-grade True Artifacts, but even supreme-grade True Artifacts, making him, who was holding a top-grade True Artifact, look rather shabby.
Where did this little girl get so many True Artifacts?
The Star Emperor looked at Mu Qingqing and Elder Han in bewilderment.
Elder Han: "......"
He felt a sense of being struck.
This little girl was actually richer than him?
Mu Qingqing looked at the Star Emperor with a smile.
"What are you smiling about, little girl? Are five True Artifacts such a big deal? If it weren't for me giving away too many treasures before, not to mention mere True Artifacts, I would have even had a Saint Artifact!"
"It's just..."
"Just what?"
Mu Qingqing asked curiously, seeing the Star Emperor senior hesitating.
"I just lost it in a bet with a junior at the Heavenly Venerate realm."
The Star Emperor said with a look of misery.
Hearing this, Elder Han and Mu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh.
The Star Emperor senior actually lost a Saint Artifact to a junior at the Heavenly Venerate realm, which was beyond their imagination.
They couldn't understand how this Star Emperor senior had cultivated to the peak Saint Emperor realm.
"Don't underestimate this top-grade True Artifact, you two. It can automatically recognize its master, and it has a set of chain techniques, which will become more powerful as the user's realm increases!"
The Star Emperor senior explained earnestly, as if trying to save some face.
Oh, chain techniques?
Mu Qingqing was a little surprised to hear this.
Her previous "Five Styles of Judgment" were of too low a grade and no longer matched her current strength.
If she could integrate this chain technique, its power would undoubtedly increase greatly.
"Then thank you, Star Emperor senior."
Mu Qingqing cupped her hands and said to the Star Emperor senior.
The Star Emperor senior waved his hand and began to put on an act again.
"You're too kind, who told me I'm a man of style!"
"Cough cough..."
Elder Han, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but cough lightly.
Hearing this, the Star Emperor senior immediately turned and glared at him, his expression seeming to say, "Don't disturb my show."
Then, the Star Emperor waved his hand, and a beam of starlight landed in Mu Qingqing's sea of consciousness.
"The other gift, I've already left it in your sea of consciousness. You can take your time to comprehend it later!"
Mu Qingqing nodded.
Then, the Star Emperor said solemnly.
"Little girl, the cultivation technique you practice is very special, it can absorb stellar energy for your use. My star realm is precisely constructed from stars."
"Now, after years of energy loss, coupled with the previous Nether God Clan and spatial rifts, the star realm is on the verge of collapse."
"With your special cultivation technique, you should be able to absorb the remaining stellar energy. This way, the star realm will disappear and will not become a spatial vortex that devours creatures from the outside world."
Hearing this, Mu Qingqing's impression of this Star Emperor senior changed greatly.
She didn't expect the Star Emperor to have this reason for destroying the star realm.
It seemed that the Star Emperor senior wasn't entirely an indecorous old prankster, at least he had a kind heart.
Mu Qingqing praised him inwardly.
"I don't have much time left. this divine sense phantom can't last much longer. I'll leave the rest to you, little girl."
"Yes, I understand."
Mu Qingqing nodded and promised.
"That's good. To be able to see the star realm one last time before I leave, I can finally rest in peace."
The Star Emperor senior said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Star Emperor's remaining trace of consciousness dissipated into the space.
The Star Emperor senior left just like that, and Mu Qingqing felt quite emotional.
Although this senior had always been indecent, it had to be said that this Star Emperor senior was a respectable person.
