Chapter 3689 - Flameyellow Imperator

The Blissful Union landed on the Sun near the Sky Palace Formation. Tianming, Jiguang, Qingyu, Moran, and the Soulfiend exited the ship together. Immediately, there was good news to spread.

"My daughter!" cried a red-haired man right as they left the ship. It was Wudi, and he was running and bawling at the same time, his beard fluttering in the wind. Qingyu was terrified at the prospect of the hug.

"Stop!" She held her arms outstretched to stop Wudi from bear-hugging her. "You're drinking and not showering again! What’ve you been doing all this time?!"

"Missing you, my daughter!" Wudi exclaimed. He burped and took a large swig of wine. "Your brother here brought me some fine stuff from the imperial capital! Do you want a taste?"

Qingyu was speechless.

"My precious granddaughter!" An old woman appeared right after.

"Grandma!" Now her, Qingyu happily welcomed. Tianming had wanted to witness this sight for far too long. His family was finally reunited! They had been separated for far too long, all the way from the Grand-Orient Sect to the Flameyellow Imperial Star. It was a long, long overdue reunion.

"Come to think of it, where's that Feng brat?" Wudi asked, feigning ignorance toward his 'son-in-law.' The fact that he had asked, though, betrayed his worry for him.

"It's a long story," Tianming said.

"Then simplify it for me," Wudi said.

"I haven't saved him yet."

"You're pathetic! Why don't you sit here and watch the Sun while I go out adventuring then?" Wudi glared at him hard.

"Dad, Feng's situation is rather unique. He's been taken somewhere else," Qingyu said, "But we have a lead that we're going to try now."

"Alright. You're already back, so you can't leave that kid outside for too long," Wudi said.

"Brother Li, didn't you say that you wouldn't let anyone take your precious daughter away from you? Why’re you suddenly concerned about your son-in-law?" Xiaodao teased.

"Shut up, you gourd-fetishist," Wudi snapped.

"Hey! Take my sword!" The two drinking buddies almost started a brawl. Qingyu covered her face in embarrassment and backed away.

After that, Jiguang slowly infused the rest of the yin-yang essence in the Blissful Union into the Sun. Tianming offered to help by using the core of the fusion formation to accelerate the process.

"Where's Yaoyao?" Jiguang asked.

Tianming felt his eyelids twitch at the question. "She's teamed up with my little sister!"

Jiguang turned back and saw a pink-haired girl talking to Qingyu with a face full of smiles. Tianming truly admired Yaoyao for her amazing ability to socialize.

Soon, the Sun expanded once more. Wudi and the rest had moved most of the people to the imperial capital or Ebonia in anticipation of the Sun's continual growth, which rendered most of it unlivable due to how volatile everything was.

"Godfather, Qingyu!" Tianming called out to them when things had been taken care of.

"So that’s the Original Sin Pool...." Wudi immediately spotted the trinket in Tianming's hand.

"Alright, back away. I'll let it expand." Tianming had brought it back because he wanted to study it; it was a crucial object. As he controlled it, it gradually expanded into a large black-and-gold bowl.

"It’s just like the Flameyellow Coffin!" Wudi took out the coffin and put it next to the Original Sin Pool. The cosmic god blood within the pool began bubbling, intensifying in the presence of the coffin. Tianming felt the entire bowl heating up.

"What?!" Even people in the distance could feel it and turned their sights over.

"The blood’s boiling.... What's going on? Are the bloodlines resonating? It feels almost angry," Wudi said, staring wide eyed.

"What about you, Qingyu?" Tianming asked.

"I feel the same." She nodded, her gaze stern.

"Don't you feel it?" Wudi asked. "You also have the bloodline of the Li Saint Clan in you, right?"

"My astrons have changed into the Order Relic. When I tried absorbing the Flameyellow Bloodsoul, my body pushed it out. That might be why I'm not reacting to this at all," Tianming said, shaking his head. Even though he had taken control of the Original Sin Pool, it didn't resonate with him at all.

Perhaps to the cosmic god blood, I'm nothing but a little sky plunderer who's temporarily stolen it, while Godfather and Qingyu are actually recognized as descendants of their kind....

That was most likely the case. Even so, he would be glad as long as the cosmic god blood could do something for them. The sky plunderers and flameyellow divinities had some kind of promised arrangement. Not to mention, Tianming saw his godfather and sister as his real family. Even if his constitution had changed, thanks to the Order Relic, he didn't mind and believed himself to be one with the Flameyellow Imperial Star.

"Someone's calling out to me!" Wudi's expression suddenly turned serious, which was incredibly rare for him. His blood-colored kunpeng also flew toward him and landed beside him. Currently, he still hadn't reached the Foundation stage and was weaker than Qingyu. His lifebound beast also had fewer stars than hers.

"I can feel it, too," the kunpeng, Tai Xu, said.

"My bloodline’s boiling! It feels like my entire body is on fire!" Wudi said, eyes wide open with shock. The Original Sin Pool suddenly burst into crimson-and-gold flames! The wave of heat blended together with the Sun, surrounding everyone in it—including Tianming. All of them were pushed back by the sudden heatwave, leaving Wudi alone next to the Original Sin Pool.

"We're home!"

"Flameyellow! Flameyellow!"

Many such voices cheered from within the Original Sin Pool. It felt so deeply emotional that everyone who heard it couldn't help but tear up.

"Senior! I, Li Wudi, am a descendant of Flameyellow! I’m ready!" Wudi knelt toward the pool, tears flowing down his face.

"A boy of the Li family?"

Tianming and Qingyu exchanged glances and almost did a doubletake when they heard Wudi addressed as a boy. Even though Wudi was in actuality much younger than Jiguang, he gave off the impression of a hard-boiled middle-aged man in their eyes! But now someone had just called him a boy!

A moment later, everyone was greeted with a shocking sigh. A drop of crimson-and-gold cosmic god blood a hundred meters across suddenly rose from the Original Sin Pool. It looked like the incarnation of the most ancient of gods, flames of gold and crimson swirling around it as it descended before Wudi. Then it turned into a humanoid figure and pointed a finger at him. "From today onward, you shall be dubbed the Flameyellow Imperator and given the task of leading our kind into the sea of stars once more!"
