Chapter 212: Chapter 99 Preparing for Awakening (Combined)_2

Brother Hero was also surveying the three Stone Pillars; at first, he just felt they were somewhat familiar, but as he kept looking, he suddenly realized that if all these patterns were combined, wouldn’t they form the mysterious Array that Zhang Xiaoman held in his hand?

He slapped his thigh immediately and said, "I was wondering why they looked so familiar. Isn’t this the ’Eye of the Starry Sky’? Haha, sure enough, this is the right place!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang turned to him and asked, "Young friend, do you know the origin of these markings?"

Brother Hero scratched his head and said, "Well, I’m not clear on the origin... but if you combine all these together, doesn’t it form the ’Eye of the Starry Sky’?"

"Oh? Can you tell me what exactly the Eye of the Starry Sky is?"

Ye Cang inquired, although he was aware of the Forest Guardians, Zhang Xiaoman hadn’t elaborated on the Eye of the Starry Sky.

"The Eye of the Starry Sky? It’s naturally the symbol of the Star Alliance..."

Brother Hero didn’t know how to explain further, so he simply briefed him with what he knew.

Ye Cang thanked him repeatedly, and also shared some information he knew, the two men exchanging information for a moment and gaining a better understanding of their surroundings.

During their conversation, a tall figure approached from the distance.

He was holding a weapon over two meters long, the tip of which was a wide spearhead that glinted with a frosty gleam in the sunlight, startling anyone who saw it.

The newcomer was naturally a Star Guard.

Both Brother Hero and Ye Cang had seen them before, and they were not unfamiliar with them; they knew these beings were summoned by Zhang Xiaoman and were not actual people.

The Star Guard came to a halt in front of them, gestured for them to follow, and then turned and led the way.

Brother Hero and Ye Cang exchanged a glance and immediately followed.

They passed through the open area and saw before them a ruinous landscape.

The ruins seemed to be flanked by three figures.

The two had actually paid attention to this area before.

However, from a hundred meters away, they couldn’t see very clearly. It was only upon closer approach that they noticed the place looked different from what they had imagined.

At the edge of the ruins, standing in succession, the one leading was Zhang Xiaoman.

Zhang Xiaoman was currently dressed in his Polar Star Robe, with a hood covering his face.

The dark purple of the robe, offset by the silver glow of a starry background, added a sense of mystery that made one unconsciously speculate about his identity.

This manner of dress surely marked the person as a powerful Transcendent?

Behind Zhang Xiaoman were Lin Sisi and another Star Guard.

Lin Sisi had already donned her Daring Clothes today, her pure white attire standing out in the ruins.

The Daring Clothes looked beautiful, especially on her, enhancing her valiant spirit.

The first time Zhang Xiaoman saw them, he was also quite stunned, not expecting the clothing bought from the Gang Store to be so much more attractive than he had imagined.

The Guardian’s attire was predominantly white, with gold trim on the collar, cuffs, and other areas.

There was a cape over the shoulders, and the back of the garment hung directly to the back of the knees, with two stripes of fabric, each about three fingers wide, trailing down to the ankles.

Both the trousers and the shoes were white with gold edges, very eye-catching.

The material of the outfit looked very light, and due to the nature of its materials and attribute, Lin Sisi wore it comfortably even in the summer without feeling the slightest heat.

The design of the Daring Clothes made even Zhang Xiaoman want to buy a set for himself, but he resisted the urge as he didn’t right away, even though it cost only 1 portion of Star Dust. At the moment, however, he was still slightly short on Star Dust.

This outfit doesn’t add any attributes, and since I already have the Polar Star Robe, there’s no need to buy this one for now.

Zhang Xiaoman thought that he would save up enough Star Dust to buy a more advanced one later.

What Lin Sisi is wearing now is a basic model; he had seen better ones in the store. The next level up is the reinforced type, which costs 10 portions of Star Dust and seems to be better than the one she has on.

Zhang Xiaoman looked forward to the day when every member of the Star Alliance would be clad in Daring Clothes, the mere aura of which would be enough to uplift anyone’s spirits.

It was around 3 p.m., and the sun in the sky was somewhat harsh. In the ruins, both of them wore the hoods attached to their clothes, which blocked out the sunlight and didn’t feel too hot either.

However, their outfits and the hoods covering their faces almost prevented Brother Hero from recognizing his friend.

"Brother Man?" Brother Hero asked uncertainly, waving his hand as he approached.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman took off his hood and greeted the two people following the Star Guard:

"You’re here, how was the journey, did you get used to it?"

Ye Cang bowed and said, "Lord Jixing, today has truly been an eye-opener for me. Your conveyance is just like an Immortal riding through the void, astonishing indeed."

Mr. Ye had indeed witnessed some of Zhang Xiaoman’s extraordinary means before, even experiencing the scene of him battling the Mineral Essence.

But there’s a difference between watching and experiencing it firsthand.

He had flown on airplanes before, but the experience of flying in an Anti-gravity Car in Holographic Mode, as if sitting on a chair in mid-air, still left him immensely shocked.

Brother Hero added a few words of agreement, also expressing that even if he rode in such futuristic vehicles many more times, he would never tire of them.

Zhang Xiaoman smiled and then introduced everyone to each other, as Lin Sisi was meeting them for the first time as well.

At that moment, the young girl had also removed her hood, and the twin orbs of silver light in her eyes immediately caught their attention. They were filled with guesswork and grew more reverent toward the Transcendent aspects displayed by the Star Alliance.

"This, does Miss Lin have an ailment in her eyes? From her movements, it seems she suffers from blindness..."

After a brief moment of surprise, Ye Cang came to his senses. Decades of experience in traditional medicine told him that despite the peculiar glow in the young girl’s eyes, she seemed unable to see anyone.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded and said, "Yes, Sisi lost her sight due to some accidents she had been through. I’ve tried to use Spiritual Medicine to restore her sight, but alas, to no avail...

He said this and briefly explained the girl’s past ordeal and her condition.

Lin Sisi reached out and tugged at him, looking down and saying, "Star Lord, you don’t have to blame yourself. It’s not your fault, and I’m already very content with this..."

"Star Lord?" Brother Hero looked at them both, surprised by her words.

Zhang Xiaoman caught his gaze and couldn’t help but shake his head and smile helplessly.

Speaking of which, Lin Sisi had insisted on calling him Star Lord, her reasoning being that one cannot address oneself casually in front of others, and calling him Star Lord sounded much better.

Although he agreed with her viewpoint, as it could enhance his own prestige and later help in persuading others, for some reason, Zhang Xiaoman felt a kind of secondhand embarrassment the first time he heard it.

However, Ye Cang didn’t care about the specifics of the title. He shook his head regretfully and said:

"What a pity... Miss Lin suffers from a disability, and even though I have thoroughly studied medical texts, I am helpless in such cases..."

Zhang Xiaoman gestured and said, "It’s fine, Mr. Ye, don’t worry about it. I will find a way to solve this issue."

After saying this, he took Lin Sisi’s hand and turned to walk toward the direction of the Underground Palace.

"It’s quite hot outside now; let’s change the setting. Even though it’s in ruins, it can at least provide shelter. We will conduct the Enlightenment Ceremony there shortly."

As he turned to leave, two Star Guards also moved ahead on either side, looking every part the loyal guards.

Brother Hero and Ye Cang both showed a hint of anticipation in their eyes and quickened their pace to follow.
