Beastmaster of the Ages
Chapter 2025
Although Tianming planned to move the sun, he wouldn’t be moving too far, so it wouldn’t be difficult to come back and see his family. Apart from Ye Shaoqing, there was Qingyu’s grandma, Li Jingyu; the people from Vermilion Bird; the relatives in Wei Manor; Sage Chen; Mu Wan; the Vermilion Bird King, Jiang Cheng; and most importantly, Jiang Qingluan. They had already been prospering at Taiji Peak Lake.
They would definitely be the first batch to go to the sun.
Li Wudi went back to meet his mother. The reunion was filled with tears and snot, and with Qingyu present, the three generations were filled with tears.
“Alright, that’s enough. It’s great you didn’t die. Your mom is leaving first. I have a meeting with my dance friends. Don’t get in the way of my scheduled time to learn a new dance today.” Li Jingyu wiped away her tears before leaving with a smile.
What came next was a slow and dull migration.
Tianming’s circle of acquaintances, whether they were family or pretty big sisters, had all benefited from their association with him.
“Taiji Peak Lake’s snow is indeed beautiful. But the sun’s fire is magnificent, too. The world will still be here even if the people leave. We’ll return if there’s a chance,” he told Xuanyuan Muxue.
“No need to say anything. I’ve been waiting for this day for too long. The snow may be beautiful, but I’m already sick of the sight. I also want to see the sun’s fire,” she replied.
Tianming had thought that many people would be reluctant, but the feedback from his Omnisentient Threads was all joy. Tianming was pleased. “It means I did a good thing.”
“Alright, let me ask you. Now that you’re king of the sun, are you planning to start a harem? Is Feiling still the queen? Where is she? Everyone’s reunited, but she’s alone outside. Don’t you miss her?” Jiang Qingluan wasn’t happy.
“Soon. Once we blind the enemy and move, I’ll go find her,” Tianming seriously said.
“That’s more like it. No need to look so serious, I trust you.” Jiang Qingluan had been mostly joking, but she relaxed when she saw Tianming treating it so seriously.
Tianming also wasn’t that comfortable missing Ling’er when everyone was celebrating. Fortunately, Xiaoxiao was around so she wouldn’t be too lonely. Hence, he wanted to quickly resolve the possibility of being watched so he could go find her.
It took around half a month to empty Flameyellow. The members of the original Tianming Dynasty moved to a continent near the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect, where they completely integrated into the nova source world and became a part of the new Tianming Dynasty. With the resources supplied by Tianming, they would reach parity with the rest of the sun after a few generations.
As they were beastmasters, their talent was innately linked with the quality of their beasts. Apart from being unable to change the number of their beasts, it wouldn’t be a problem for the people around Tianming to become gods. Even Wei Tiancang and Li Jingyu had a possibility of gaining an astral physique and extending their longevity.
Li Caiwei would make all the arrangements for Tianming. She was talented in managing human resources and had the experience of handling tasks for him. Thus, he had directly raised her to the new management for the Tianming Dynasty, putting her together with people like the Saintdragon Emperor and Long Wanying.
Now, he didn’t have any weak spots. The new sun was a sturdy fortress with him and Li Wudi there, and prosperity was within reach. The only downside was that Lingfeng still hadn’t woken up. His Xenoworld Gate had expanded until it was almost unmanageable. Tianming’s only choice was to put him in the Myriaddragon Mountains and leave Qingyu there to take care of him.

Li Wudi and him went to the area outside the chaos skyjail to bid their final farewells to Ye Shaoqiu.
“Come, your dad will bring you into the coffin,” Li Wudi roared with laughter as he put his arm around Tianming’s shoulder.
The words sounded very inauspicious to his ears.
The Flameyellow Coffin was still afraid of Tianming. When he entered, the molten liquid inside automatically receded and left space for two people inside. The coffin could expand, but it would no longer be able to enter the chaos skyjail. It was a mystery nobody could understand.
Tianming was finally returning to the Decimo Dao Nation after so long. In the Canal of the Dead’s storms, the two hid inside. When they passed through, the coffin opened and Li Wudi and he climbed out.
“Huh?” Tianming immediately found that invisible chains had secured his body, like there was a restrictive formation there. All of the astralforce in his albi had been locked down tight. His expression immediately changed as he felt uncomfortable.
“It’s fine, the sun emperor also experienced this when he entered here. Supposedly, we can only use the Ascension stage’s power here,” Li Wudi explained.
“I see.” Tianming tested it out and found that the limit of his power was indeed the second or third level of the Ascension stage. It was powerful enough to steamroll the Decimo Dao Nation, but still pitiful in his eyes.
“Here was where my dad was reincarnated, the Primordial Chaos Beasts were born, and the Lord of Perpetia, Tomb of the Ancients, Primordial God-Emperor, and Primordial Demonlord appeared. How many more secrets lie hidden here?” Tianming couldn’t fathom it.
“Let’s go to the Divine Capital.”
……
They quickly arrived in the capital. After the passage of so many years, it looked like a prosperous city where peace, order, and happiness abounded. It was a far cry from when the Nineshades Clan had ruled and countless bones were buried everywhere; it now looked like a paradise.
Ye Shaoqiu had communicated with Li Caiwei, so he was aware that they were coming.
“Welcome, foul creatures.” In one of the imperial palace’s courtyard, an elegant man dressed in green waved to them in greeting. A gaggle of at least ten children surrounded him.
Tianming and Wudi landed.
“Come say hi. This is Big Li and this is Little Li,” Ye Shaoqiu chuckled.
“Hello Big Li, Hello Little Li!”
“Are you really that bored? You arranged for so many little kids to do a welcoming ceremony?” Li Wudi snorted.
“Godfather, you’re mistaken. These are all Old Ye’s kids.” Tianming smiled.
“Goodness! Ye Shaoqiu, you really are a wolf in gentleman’s clothing. I gave you the imperial seat and you started a harem?” Wudi’s mouth twitched. He was filled with envy and jealousy.
“A harem? You must not be able to comprehend the scale of it. My newest little wife is number one thousand, eight hundred and thirty-four. Everyday is a new experience for me…” Ye Shaoqiu chuckled.
“Are you some kind of breeding machine?” Li Wudi’s eyes were wide.
“Nonsense! This is called having a heart filled with love. If you don’t love beauties, how can you love the rest of your life? You two should learn more. You especially, Tianming! You’re not young anymore, it’s time for kids!” Ye Shaoqiu said.
Li Wudi was filled with hatred.
They all sat down and chatted while drinking wine.
“Not bad, not bad. After managing to catch a breather during a busy life, it’s like we returned to a few years ago. Back then, Tianming killed Yuwen Shendu in a fit of rage and defeated Yueling Long during the Realm Wars. As for you, Wudi, you came back with a bang and stunned everyone and everything. Even I felt my blood rushing.… It’s all like it happened yesterday.”
Time passed so quickly, but fortunately, the people hadn’t changed. No matter what they experienced, Li Wudi was still Li Wudi and Ye Shaoqiu was still Ye Shaoqiu.
“You really don’t want to go?” Wudi asked.
“Nope. I love it here, and I love my life now. It’s peaceful, free, and filled with kids. Isn’t that enough?” Ye Shaoqiu said.
“That’s okay, too. We’ll leave you some things. Tianming will also move several stellar sources above the Divine Capital. It won’t be difficult for you to become a god.” He would live longer then.
“Alright, leave this Decimo Dao Nation to Old Ye. Don’t worry. However, you have to promise me something, Wudi,” Ye Shaoqiu said.
“What?” he asked.
“Bring my little sister along and treat her well. At least make sure she’s well fed, has no troubles with her cultivation, and can see you often.”
Wasn’t his sister Ye Yuxi?
“Fuck, I’m immune to womanly charms!” Wudi was anxious when he heard about Ye Yuxi.
“Fuck you! You’re a hot-blooded man. You still have many days ahead of you. Your thing will rot if you don’t use it!” Ye Shaoqiu angrily said.
“Don’t worry Old Ye, I’ll handle it and guarantee Aunt Yuxi a good lifestyle.”
As for his father, Ye Qing, he had to be brought up—he was old, so that was the only way his lifespan could be extended.
Everyone there were all Tianming’s benefactors. He wouldn’t be around today if not for them.
“Son of a bitch, you’re causing trouble,” Li Wudi awkwardly said.
“Scolding yourself?” Ye Shaoqiu grinned.
“Get lost. I won’t have any peaceful days on the sun with your sister around.”
Much laughter rang out. They drank and chatted for one day and one night before, finally, Li Wudi returned to the Grand-Orient Mountain Range to pay his respects to the Li Clan’s ancestral tombs.
He stayed at Mu He’s grave for a very, very long time.
Tianming himself returned to Vermilion Bird and stayed at Midas’ tomb for a while, muttering to himself, “Those living will see their lives get better and better. If I were to peer into the mysteries of life and death one day, maybe I could bring you back? Midas, you’re the only one I’ve let down in my life. Goodbye, I’ll think of you.”
After his tears fell, Tianming regrouped with Wudi and began their journey back.
As for Ye Yuxi, she had already gone to the sun long ago. Ye Shaoqiu just wanted Wudi to look out for her more. Wudi would definitely do it, even if only for the sake of his brother, who’d had his back even after he’d been lost for fourteen years.
At that time, Yin Chen finally sent news over. The watcher had been found.
