After Ye Zichen and Su Yan woke up, they naturally didnt linger in the hidden land.

This was in large part since Fatty was pressuring them to depart immediately out of fear that someone from above would divine their location. Soon, the group arrived at the Su sisters loft.

Within the lofts living room, they each took a seat.

So Big Brother Zichen is the heavens chosen Emperor, thats so cool! Xia Keke batted her glossy eyes and evaluated Ye Zichen, her expression intensely curious.

After waking up, Ye Zichen had also noticed his own transformation. It wasnt his strength that had changed, rather, his connection with Heavens Will seemed to have grown more intimate.

It seemed as if, so long as he willed it, all of creation would obey his commands.

For now, weve located two of the Emperors Auxiliary Stars: me, and Keke, said Fatty Yin with a frown, To tell the truth, Id really rather not be an Auxiliary Star. Im not at all optimistic about the current situation.

Im one of Big Brother Zichens Auxiliary Stars too? Thats wonderful! said Xia Keke, laughing vibrantly. Then she fixed her gaze on Su Liuer and said, Big Sister Liuer, why are you staring at Susu like that?

Cough.

Having been spotted, Su Liuer coughed in surprise, then turned away. After a moment, and without answering Kekes question, she asked, what exactly are the Auxiliary Stars and Emperor Star you just mentioned? I dont quite get it.

The so-called Emperor Star is actually the North Star, the northernmost star in the Milky Way. Since all other stars revolve around it, its been considered the Lord of All Stars since ancient times. The North Star has many names, including the Lord of the Starry Sky, the Purple Star,' and the Master Strategist. Its the Emperor Star of the Five Arctic Stars.

Naturally, Fatty Yin took on the role of professor and explained the situation, pacing back and forth as he began his lecture."

"The Illumination of the Emperor Star represents the arrival of the Son of Destiny. Just now, you all saw it; the Emperor Star lit for Ye Zichen.

The others nodded, and he spoke again,

The Auxiliary Stars are like subordinates encircling the North Star; they represent ministers supporting the emperor. That is, they exist to wholeheartedly support him in claiming the throne. However, there are simply too many stars in the Milky Way, and furthermore, Star-bearers and Auxiliary Stars are both created when a star descends into the body. Therefore, the only way to know for sure if youre an Auxillary Star or not is timing: when the Emperor Star illuminated, the stars that descended afterward were all Auxiliary Stars. Its usually just one star per person."

So thats how it is. Then, I.. Su Liu'er started to speak, then suddenly opened her hands.

The Martial Star.

Su Liuer opened her palm, revealing a radiant star emblem. Fatty Yin saw this, exclaimed in shock, then immediately started complaining.

How could the Martial Star be female?

Do you look down on women? Su Liuer suddenly grew cold.

Her grim expression scared Fatty Yin so much that he forced a smile, saying, "No, I absolutely didnt mean anything like that! Its just that since ancient times, the Martial Star has always been inherited by men. Sister-in-law, I was just surprised youd inherited it is all."

No need to say anymore," she said, "then, based on what you said earlier, Im supposed to serve Ye Zichen?

Thats right. Fatty Yin nodded decisively, but in response, Su Liuer glowered coldly at Ye Zichen.

Serve him?

Her heart filled with endless unwillingness. Back then, her big sister had died for him. Then, in this life, Su Yan had come perilously close to dying for him again.

The way she saw it, Ye Zichen was a blight on Su Yans life.

To have her serve that kind of person...

Everyone sensed that the atmosphere had grown somewhat strange, so Su Yan chose that moment to press her lips into a smile.

"It's too early to talk about serving anyone for now," she said, "but it's great that you were able to inherit the Martial StarAnd it's good that Zichen is the Emperor Star, isn't it? At the very least were all already familiar with each other, and are part of the same family, so why talk about serving anyone?

Susu, you also seem different from before, Xia Keke suddenly chimed in.

Mmhm, thats probably because of my relationship with Zichen, replied Su Yan. Right now, our lifelines are connected. I mightve changed a bit too when he illuminated the Emperor Star.

Su Yans right, said Ye Zichen, following up on her earlier statement. Theres no need to talk about anyone serving anybody. Lets just go on as before.

That simply isnt possible, interrupted Fatty Yin. Then, his face darkened as he said, since youre the Emperor Star, we are your axillary stars. Naturally, we have to pay attention to propriety. You, too, have to always be on alert; dont treat anyone carelessly. The Emperor is the Emperor. Emperors and ministers each have their own place. From the moment we received our stars, our relationship as master and servant was clearly defined.

......

The others didnt understand why hed taken such a hard line; they all knew that Ye Zichen and Su Yan had only said all that to lighten up the atmosphere.

However, Fatty Yin didnt seem to care about their reaction at all. After some time..

He naturally understood that even if he said more, they wouldnt necessarily understand.

Lets set that aside for now. Currently, two of the four main Auxiliary Stars have appeared. I am the Deputy of the Left.

He opened his left hand, revealing a star emblazoned on his palm.

The Deputy of the Left is the Leader of the Emperors Auxiliary Stars, and is also known as the Chancellor Star. When I inherited it, I also received the ability to recognize other stars. Su Liuer is the Martial Star, so right now our main goal is to find the Literati Star and Deputy of the Right. Those four stars correspond to the emperors four ministers.

Then, which star am I? Xia Keke cut in, It seems Im not especially important.

At first, she had been really excited to receive her Auxillary Star; it made her one of Big Brother Zichens supporters. However, after all that Fatty had said, shed discovered.

Her Auxillary Star didnt seem especially important.

You are the Emperors Fated Star; his beloved, and someone destined to protect him from calamities. Su Yan and Xiao Yumei should also have this sort of star.

Su Yan and Xiao Yumei both nodded, and opened their hands to reveal stars just like Kekes.

The North Star has incredible fortune, but will also undergo many trials. As his beloved Fated Stars, you have the ability to resist his tribulations. In truth, you are far more important than the four of us, as we can only serve him. Youre the ones who will keep him alive.

In that case, Im happy.

She smiled excitedly again, but when Yuan Hong saw her foolish joy, he couldnt help but make fun of her. Keke, did you actually understand him? You exist just to save Ye Zichen from calamity, but you could easily die in the process!

That doesnt matter, she said immediately, Im happy to protect Big Brother Zichen.

When she said this, she didnt hesitate in the slightest. That, and her heartfelt tone and gaze made it obvious that she meant it; she absolutely wasnt just trying to impress the others.

Su Liuer looked over at Su Yan and Xiao Yumeis faces.

They were the same way.

Su Liuer silently clenched her fists as she wanted Su Yan gaze longingly at Ye Zichen.

If my big sister has to save you calamity, she muttered internally, then let me take her place!

Little did they know, while the others were preoccupied, Change took a private look at her own hands.

Shockingly, on her palm, there was...

A Fated Star.
