The Magnificent Sky Dance: Book 4 of Starchild Escapes Arranged Marriage

by Fat Bread

  His childhood sweethearts, the Starwing Knights girls... it was very likely that after Hydra recovered thousands of years later, none of them would be still alive. Just imagine the sense of loneliness, Yun Xi had felt a wave of emptiness and despair in his mind.

  Is time the widest gap between legend ranked beings and mortals?

  As a mortal, Yun Xi didn't think that Hydra's time sense could be a reference!

  "No! It shouldn't be ended like this!" Yun Xi yelled and endured the crazy power of blood in his body.

  This isn't the end I want to see!

  This isn't the result I’m longing for!

  Yun Xi wanted to see change. Change! He wished to change the misfortune of this world with his hands. He wanted to save this world!

  Even though Shaya Longnis, the Sky Sword had announced that she would make this world become the biggest tragedy.

  Even though the master of this world, Hydra, had announced that it had planned to give up.

  Yun Xi, as a man, still wanted to save this world.

  You were looking for this, so you chose me, weren't you?

  "Hydra, give me more power!" Yun Xi refused to accept this end. It looked as if his effort was totally meaningless in front of Shaya Longnis' power.

  "No, I have given you all my power." Hydra raised its head and looked at the distant void.

  In order to protect the living beings in the Water God's world, it had strained every nerve, because it was its responsibility as a god.

  Therefore, Hydra couldn't grant Yun Xi more power.

  Shaya Longnis would destroy this world, Hydra had seen this end from the beginning.

  Due to this, it granted Yun Xi the White Emperor Mask, trying to change this misfortune.

  It had said from the beginning that it was longing for change. It wanted to see the miracle created by the most beautiful bride.

  It knew that it couldn't change this world's fate, but the bride it had chosen could.

  Till now, Yun Xi was more excellent than it had expected, but this was still not enough.

  He still had more potential and could create more miracles.

  Turn "impossibility" into "possibility", making "hope" from "despair", this was the bride it was looking for.

  He is the only person who can save this world.

  It had staked on Yun Xi with all its chips, because he is the only person who can defeat Shaya Longnis, the Sky Sword!

  "However, your power isn't enough!" Yun Xi could feel how weak Hydra was at this moment and how strong Shaya Longnis was becoming.

  From the beginning, the balance of this battle had biased toward Shaya Longnis, this was what Yun Xi didn't expect.

  "Yes, so you need to obtain more powers. Look with your eyes and listen with your ears! There are not only Shaya and me on this battlefield. There are more beings looking at this place and waiting for a result. Can you borrow their powers?" Hydra looked at its bride with a strange look.

  "Are there other people here?"

  Yun Xi was startled. He looked around this world with his consciousness, finally, he noticed the sights at the edge of this world, projecting into this world from very distant places.

  Ah, there are really other people!

  They have the powers at the same rank with Hydra and Shaya Longnis!

  Who? Who are they?

  Apart from Hydra and Shaya Longnis, are there other legend ranked beings having a hand in this battle?

  Yun Xi could feel two different auras from the two sides of this world. It seemed that they had lasted for a period of time.

  Wait. Why do I feel that there are something familiar in the two auras?

  Oh, right, they are my seeds! They are the last two people of the Starwing Knights.

  The leader of the Starwing Knights: Hua Yue.

  The deputy leader of the Starwing Knights: Xiao Cao.

  Chapter 290: The Last Marriage Contract

  After entering the Water God's world, Yun Xi had looked for Hua Yue and Xiao Cao many times, but found not even the slightest trace, as if they had completely disappeared from this world.

  At first, he thought that they had joined Shaya Longnis' camp, just like the twin witches and Hua Huo.

  Apparently, he was wrong. There were not only the two camps, the Water God's and the Sky Sword's camp. There was a third and even a fourth camp.

  Hua Yue and Xiao Cao joined the unknown third camp and fourth camp.

  Compared to the Water God's camp, who had done their best and were all exhausted now, perhaps the third camp and the fourth camp were the keys to change the fate of this world!

  "It's about time." After tasting Yun Xi's savor, Shaya Longnis licked her lips with a pleasant look.

  It's time to enjoy my dinner!

  "Hua Yue! Xiao Cao!"

  Yun Xi was already at an absolute disadvantage. In desperation, he shouted out the last two girls' names.

  "Who is calling me?"

  "Who am I!? Where am I going? Why am I here?"

  Behind her, there was a white golden longsword that was inserted into the ground and emitted a cold and sacred aura.

  At the south pole of the Water God's world, Xiao Cao stood on an ice mountain and stretched herself, looking at this world with her confused eyes.

  "Are you calling my name? ... Who are you? Your name is..." Behind her back, a dark yellow sword was floating in the air, emitting infinite Aura of the Desert.

  They were really in this world!

  Now, all the Starwing Knights girls had been accounted for!

  Therefore, say it. Say the magical words that could change this world's fate and create a bright future.

  "You don't know my name, but I know your names. Please trust me. I need your help, I need your power! If you can believe in me, if you can lend me your power, please listen, listen to my voice and wish."

  Behind Yun Xi, the Water God's Opera House opened again.

  This time, the singers weren't the three High Priestesses but the Starwing Knights girls.

  They pressed their chests and sang at the top of their voices.

  "Why? Why? We can go everywhere, but we can't go anywhere."

  "The dark is hovering in the sky, a fantastic miracle is generating inside it."

  "My eyes opened for glory, writing the future that had been recorded."

  "Other people can't loan me the power to open up a new path, we can only open the closed door with our own hands."

  "I'm willing to be your wings and glory, offering our unshakable belief to you."

  "Our love, will be forever!"

  At the end of this world, the north pole.

  Sacred lights were shining inside Hua Yue's eyes.

  Oh, I heard it. I heard the sounds from the people I love, I heard the sounds from the people I want to protect.

  Sword, hold the sword!

  For the important thing I need to protect!

  This is the guardian's persistence!

  At the end of this world, the south pole.

  Xiao Cao took a deep breath and exhaled.

  Yes, this is the feeling. This is the impulse, spirit and will.

  No matter who the enemy is, I will never give up or concede!

  A flame was burning inside her heart.

  The fire from the Battle God!

  "Lend me your powers. Marry me!" Yun Xi announced. He proposed to the last two girls of the Starwing Knights with his most sincere voice.

  "I accept your proposal."

  Hua Yue didn't remember why she was here, but the voice was so familiar and went straight into her heart.

  The proud princess was moved by the girls' song echoing in the world. She drew her sword.

  At that moment, a vague figure appeared behind her.

  The figure had three strands of ice blue hair on her forehead, long braids on her back, steel blue gems on her sleeves, and sword shaped ribbons on the corner of her dress.

  Hua Yue's sword was from this cold, beautiful girl. The sharp sword blade
was reflecting a cold silver white light.

  The sword handle was half a metre long, in the junction of the sword's handle and blade, there was a round compass. In the middle of the compass, there was a big lock-hole, looked as if something was sealed inside it.

  At the end of this world, the south pole.

  "I'm willing to marry you." Following her instinct, Xiao Cao also accepted Yun Xi's proposal and caught the sword that dropped in her hand. A tall woman appeared behind her. She was wearing a special, tribal style clothes with a pair of fetters on her feet. Her body shape was so perfect that it far exceeded any mortal. On her fallow coloured skin, there were tattoos of black and white. Her braided tail was also very long and reached her ankles.

  The sword in Xiao Cao's hands looked very rough, as if it was made of some poor quality sand gravel, but these "sand gravels" were flowing along the shape of the sword!

  The sword handle looked like a strange sandglass. The sand gravel were flowing out of the sandglass and flowing into the sandglass, so that the sword could keep such a strange shape due to such a weird circulation.

  "Ga!" When the two girls accepted his proposal, Yun Xi's mind was instantly covered by two prodigious powers.

  Unlike Hydra's infinite power of blood, the powers Yun Xi obtained from Hua Yue and Xiao Cao were two pure, special mental strengths.

  To Yun Xi who had the great physical power but didn't have the mental strength to control it, the two mental strengths were like a welcome rain after a long drought!

  "Hum? Those two auras..." For the first time, Shaya Longnis didn't look calm. Something was out of her control.

  Because something should never belong to Yun Xi appeared on his body.

  "The oldest Sky Sword, the guardian of the door..."

  "And the sixth Sky Sword, Casina, the Battle God!"

  Shaya Longnis cocked her head, looking at Yun Xi in surprise.

  Why did their powers appear on my food?

  Chapter 291: The Battle God and the Guardian

  When the last two girls of the Starwing Knights accepted Yun Xi's proposal, two different roads appeared in front of Yun Xi.

  "This is..." Looking at the infinite sea of blood under his feet, and the nine snake tails in the sea, Yun Xi had a feeling that he just touched something very incredible.

  The road on his left was from the north pole. Hua Yue was standing there with a sacred but familiar figure behind her.

  In front of Hua Yue, there was a sword inserted into the ground, turning the area around her into a paradise of ice and snow.

  A huge gate stood tall and upright behind her, emitting an inviolable “Aura of Holiness”.

  On the handle of the sword, the sealed compass was slowly opening a crack. A trace of an old and cold aura came from the compass, giving Yun Xi a feeling of divinity and dignity.

  The road on his right was from the south pole of the world.

  Xiao Cao was standing there with an unknown, mysterious woman behind her. The woman was wearing strange, exotic clothes with fetters on her naked feet.

  Behind them, there was an endless desert spreading to the end of the world.

  Countless sand gravels dropped from the sword that was floating in front of Xiao Cao and returned to the sandglass following some unknown rules, like the legendary “Sands of Time”, which stood for the passing of everything in the universe.

  It was hot and mysterious, perfect and strong. This was Yun Xi's feeling about this road.

  However, both of them had already exceeded the limit of Yun Xi's imagination, and this only meant a single truth: they were two living legends standing at the top of all god's domains, just like Hydra and Shaya Longnis!

  Through the seeds between in Hua Yue's body and Xiao Cao's body, Yun Xi found that they had become the "threads" of the two legend ranked beings, so that they could cast their sights into this world. When Yun Xi signed the marriage contract with Hua Yue and Xiao Cao, he also obtained a few of their properties they projected onto Hua Yue and Xiao Cao's bodies.

  Although their powers they lent to Yun Xi wasn't complete, but to Yun Xi, they perfectly made up for his weaknesses: legend ranked mental strength that could be stuffed into the endless sea of blood and let him control Hydra's power easier!

  Nah, whatever.

  Since I have done this, let me carry it through to the end!

  In the face of Shaya Longnis' powerful pressure, Yun Xi didn't have time to consider the consequences.

  Even if a cat was willing to lend him power, he wouldn't refuse it now. Not to mention the powers from two legend ranked beings. Even if accepting their powers would bring some unknown result, he wouldn't hesitate to use them!

  I won't let you destroy it! This is their homeland, the world they love!

  Since they chose me and believe in me, I must do something for this world.

  This wasn't for the stars' quests. After all, Yun Xi had accomplished all the quests. He just wanted to do something for this world.

  Probably it's because this world was too real. Yun Xi couldn't turn a blind eye toward this world like what he did in the previous two worlds.

  No matter whether they were the people in the first village, or the girls he met later, regardless of the Starwing Knights girls, this world still brought him too many things.

  His first experience to propose to unknown girls, his first experience to stand on the stage of the public, his first experience to talk and play with the unknown races in the sea... the more he knew about this world, the stronger the love he had towards it, till he was unable to extricate himself from it.

  Perhaps "the Expansion Plan of One Million Girls" was just Yun Que's method, but during the process, he really felt the blessing and expectation of this world.

  When one million girls chose him and put the transparent rings on their fingers, Yun Xi understood that they had become his responsibility.

  Perhaps this was what the stars wanted to teach him.

  You can marry one million girls, correspondingly, you will also need to undertake the responsibility for your choice.

  Thinking and imagining what you can do and what you will do.

  After becoming the Water God's Apostle and putting on the White Emperor Mask, Yun Xi finally became this world's hope.

  Now, it's time to repay the world and honour his commitment!

  "I said I will marry you all after this battle is finished. Even if everyone thinks that this world's misfortune can't be changed, I will change it with my hands!"

  Yun Xi stretched out his hands and grasped the threads from Hua Yue and Xiao Cao.

  The next moment, two distinct rules were linked to Yun Xi's body through the threads on Hua Yue and Xiao Cao's bodies.

  One of the rules was cold, like a Referee Blade that was lifting in the air.

  The other rule was as hot and furious as a sandstorm in the endless desert.

  They must be legend ranked, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to watch this battle in this manner.

  They silently looked at Shaya Longnis and Hydra through Hua Yue and Xiao Cao's eyes, and did nothing when Yun Xi obtained their powers. Yun Xi's body trembled violently due to the powers from the three legend ranked beings. If the stars didn't secretly help him, both his body and soul would’ve been destroyed.

  "He he, ha ha ha ha!" Shaya Longnis laughed. She laughed at her food and the world that was doomed to be destroyed by her.

  Suddenly, change appeared. Even she didn't expect this.

  At present, there were three Sky Swords on this battlefield. Even throughout the entire history of Sky Sword God's Domain, it was a rare scene.

  The guardian of the door was the oldest and most mysterious Sky Sword. No one had witnessed her true power alive.

  Casina, the Battle God was the sixth Sky Sword. Although she was a Sky Sword, she rarely used her sword.

  "Are you looking for trouble here? If so, let me defeat you all!" Shaya Longnis yelled!

  "Guardian of the Door, I didn't see y
ou before. Don't you always stay in the crack amongst the worlds? Why do you come here now?!"

  "Boom!" Nine crimson snake tails went crazy behind Yun Xi.
