Mu Qingqing said angrily.
Elder Han was stunned.
This was, after all, a Saint Emperor. This little girl should show some respect.
"Damn it, my home was actually burgled! Which son of a bitch left such a huge spatial rift in my Star Realm?"
However, the Star Emperor senior in front of them instantly shifted from his previous profound demeanor to a torrent of curses, completely devoid of the bearing of a master.
Elder Han stared blankly.
Mu Qingqing, however, chuckled. This senior was truly quite amusing.
If she hadn't read the original work and known the true personality of this Star Emperor, she would have been surprised by his behavior.
"Senior Star Emperor, if you don't act quickly to seal the spatial rift, your home will become the backyard of the Nether God Clan."
Mu Qingqing said as if joking.
"You are quite an interesting and straightforward young lady. I'll deal with those Nether God Clan monsters first, then come find you."
With that, the Star Emperor transformed into a beam of light and flew away.
Upon arriving before the spatial rift, the Star Emperor's gaze sharpened.
He waved his right hand.
A terrifying pressure emanated from him, and vast true essence fluctuations swept across the entire Star Realm.
With a simple move of summoning a giant hand of true essence, all the Nether God Clan monsters in the Star Realm were annihilated, turning into dust.
The Star Emperor's move was truly formidable, worthy of a Saint Emperor!
He then formed a hand seal and shot a beam of light into the spatial rift.
Under the Star Emperor's control, the spatial rift gradually healed.
Watching this scene, Mu Qingqing's eyes flickered with excitement.
This was good; the spatial rift was finally resolved.
Elder Han, standing beside her, was also full of admiration for the Star Emperor's display of power.
The Star Emperor's strength was likely not inferior to his own before his demise.
"I'm exhausted from finally cleaning everything up. I'm going to sleep."
The Star Emperor yawned and, with a flash, reappeared before the statue.
Elder Han and Mu Qingqing could see that the Star Emperor's phantom was already becoming blurry.
After all, it was merely a wisp of the Star Emperor's divine sense; the true Star Emperor had long since fallen.
If not for the uniqueness of the Myriad Phenomena Star Wheel Scripture, which allowed Mu Qingqing to temporarily awaken this wisp of divine sense.
Seeing this, Mu Qingqing quickly called out, "Senior Star Emperor, wait."
"What is it, little girl?"
"The Star Gate is now controlled by an unknown force and cannot be closed. Therefore, Senior Star Emperor, can you use the energy of the Star Emperor statue to close the Star Gate again?"
The Star Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this.
"You mean the Star Gate has been taken over by outsiders?"
"That's right."
"Which damn bastard! Not only did he open a huge rift in my home, but he also broke the door! I'm so angry!"
The Star Emperor before them began to curse incoherently, disregarding his image.
Elder Han and Mu Qingqing couldn't help but stifle their laughter at the Star Emperor's unseemly behavior.
The Star Emperor seemed to notice the smiles on their faces and immediately put on the demeanor of a senior expert.
"Ahem, since you young people are pleading with me so devoutly, I shall reluctantly help you!"
"Uh, I mean, Senior Star Emperor, you don't have to force yourself. Your goofy personality is about to show."
Mu Qingqing couldn't help but retort.
"What do you know, little girl? Every time the juniors from the Eastern Continent Grand Competition arrive at the Star Gate, I have to put on a senior's guise and bestow them with spiritual items so they'll continue to worship me."
"So do you know how difficult it is to maintain my noble image!"
Hearing the Star Emperor's words, Mu Qingqing was utterly speechless.
Maintaining a noble image? You are, after all, a Saint Emperor realm expert.
Just curb your goofy personality and volatile temper.
This Senior Star Emperor was truly a treasure trove of amusement.
However, Senior Star Emperor was quite interesting, and both Mu Qingqing and Elder Han liked his straightforwardness, so they didn't say much more.
"Speaking of which, little girl, you are quite surprising. Even I can't see through your condition, and the mysterious energy you used to awaken me is something I've never seen before. How did you do it?"
The Star Emperor asked with curiosity.
Mu Qingqing smiled slightly and didn't say much, only offering a single sentence to Senior Star Emperor.
"Perhaps the cultivation technique I practice is just very special."
"You little girl, are you playing coy with me?"
The Star Emperor shook his head.
"Never mind, if you don't want to say, I can't do anything about it. But you must know who opened the Star Gate, right?"
The Star Emperor pressed further.
Mu Qingqing pondered for a moment, then finally nodded.
"Yes, it was someone named Xuan Kong."
Upon hearing Xuan Kong, a flicker of surprise crossed the Star Emperor's eyes.
"Xuan Kong? Who is that? I've only heard of Xuan Kong Mountain."
Xuan Kong Mountain!
As the Star Emperor reminded them, Elder Han and Mu Qingqing suddenly realized something, their faces showing shock.
Could Xuan Kong be related to Xuan Kong Mountain?
Mu Qingqing knew that Xuan Kong Mountain was one of the five great sacred lands of the Central Continent, and it was the second-ranked super power with an extremely powerful foundation.
"Could it really be someone from Xuan Kong Mountain? I'm just a Saint Emperor. Xuan Kong Mountain is no ordinary force; they have many Saint Emperor Emperors and countless peak Heavenly Venerates."
"My Star Realm doesn't have much of value. Every time during the Eastern Continent Grand Competition, I would give away many treasures to show off in front of the younger generation. I'm so poor now that I only have spirit stones left."
The Star Emperor put on a pathetic look, as if complaining.
Looking at this scene, Mu Qing couldn't help but sigh. This Star Emperor was indeed as described in the book, a show-off and a goofball.
No wonder the original male lead, Xin Ci, only received a pile of high-grade spirit stones at the Star Gate after becoming the number one in the Eastern Continent Grand Competition.
"Wait a moment, that item... didn't it get lost?"
The Star Emperor suddenly remembered something and said with a worried expression.
Mu Qingqing was slightly taken aback, not understanding what the Star Emperor was referring to.
Then, the Star Emperor channeled his soul power throughout the entire Star Realm to investigate. Finally, he sighed helplessly.
"Alas, that jade box was indeed stolen."
The Star Emperor's voice held a hint of helplessness.
At this moment, Mu Qingqing and Elder Han were dumbfounded.
What precious item was the jade box that Senior Star Emperor mentioned?
Subsequently, the Star Emperor displayed an expression of extreme heartache.
"That jade box cost me billions of top-grade spirit stones back then. It was so expensive, and now it's gone. It truly pains me."
Mu Qingqing: "..."
Elder Han: "..."
Good heavens, you've left us speechless again.
Are you heartbroken over the jade box or the spirit stones!
"Alas, forget it. I've already fallen anyway. This jade box has no meaning staying with me."
After saying that, the Star Emperor turned to Mu Qingqing and said, "Let's get back to the main topic, little girl. To tell you the truth, the special energy on the Star Gate is something even I cannot break."
"Oh?"
Mu Qingqing was somewhat confused. Could the special energy on the Star Gate be more powerful than Senior Star Emperor's?
