Stellar Transformation-Chapter 602: Episode 16 - 63 Life Soul Tears
Today’s third Chapter!
————————
Within the Holy Emperor Hall, in Jiang Fan’s study.
The door of the study was closed tightly, the windows shut, shrouding the entire study in darkness. Jiang Fan sat silently at his desk, alone.
"Swoosh!" Jiang Lan appeared out of thin air in the empty space in front of the desk.
Jiang Fan looked up at Jiang Lan. Jiang Fan’s eyes had strands of dark red, and his entire aura felt somewhat heavy. Jiang Lan frowned, "Big Brother, what are you thinking about? Why are you like this?"
Jiang Lan also felt that something was off with Jiang Fan.
The usually carefree Jiang Fan, why had he become like this? Moreover, Jiang Fan had just received a valuable betrothal gift and should have been in high spirits.
"Little Brother, you’ve come," Jiang Fan said indifferently.
Jiang Lan frowned, "Big Brother, that Qin Yu’s betrothal gift, it’s that first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure, right? He has already received two spots, and the betrothal gift is a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure. He should undoubtedly win, so what are you thinking about?"
"Undoubtedly?" Jiang Fan scoffed, "Little Brother, you’re thinking too simply."
"Oh? Is Zhou Xian’s betrothal gift even more precious than a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure?" Jiang Lan asked, puzzled.
Jiang Fan remained silent.
Jiang Lan and Jiang Fan were blood brothers, and had been so since their birth in the Divine World, very familiar with each other. Jiang Lan furrowed his brow, "Big Brother, what exactly is Zhou Xian’s betrothal gift?"
Jiang Fan was still silent.
"Big Brother!" Jiang Lan grew a bit angry.
"Stop asking," Jiang Fan coldly retorted, his eyelids flipped.
Jiang Lan frowned, but took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, "Big Brother, Qin Yu is now the new Artisan God. By letting him win, not only do we get that first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure, but we also gain an Artisan God as your son-in-law. Imagine, Northern Pole Snow City’s status among the Eight Great Holy Lands would surely be the highest. So why are you hesitating now?"
"Stop bothering me, let me think well," Jiang Fan’s low voice echoed in the study.
Jiang Lan was getting anxious; if Jiang Fan had told him the reason, it would have been somewhat easier to accept, but now Jiang Fan was simply not speaking.
"Get out!" Jiang Fan suddenly looked up, his gaze coldly fixing on Jiang Lan.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Jiang Lan hummed lowly and immediately used Instantaneous Movement to leave the Northern Pole Holy Emperor Palace. Jiang Lan did not want to confront Jiang Fan directly, after all, the final decision for the marriage contest was still in Jiang Fan’s hands.

In Mu Mansion.
Qin Yu had been quietly waiting, not even disturbing Jiang Li, but rather sitting alone by the pond. Shortly after, Jiang Lan returned.
"Uncle Lan?" Seeing Jiang Lan’s expression, Qin Yu’s heart skipped a beat.
This was not a good sign!
Jiang Lan slowly exhaled a breath, his facial expression gradually returned to normal as he looked at Qin Yu and sighed, "Little Yu, the situation is indeed as you suspected, not good at all."
"What’s wrong, is the Northern Pole Holy Emperor planning to choose Zhou Xian?" Qin Yu became anxious.
"No," Jiang Lan regained his composure, "I know Jiang Fan very well; if he had decided to give the spot to Zhou Xian, he wouldn’t look that way. His hesitation... clearly he is still wavering."
"Wavering?" Qin Yu knitted his brow.
"Yes, even now, Jiang Fan can’t make up his mind. I really can’t think of what could be on the Zhou Family’s gift list that would make Jiang Fan hesitate."
Jiang Lan shook his head and frowned, "You’ve gotten two spots and the betrothal gift is a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure. And now you’re the new Artisan God! All this, and still it’s not enough to make my big brother decide on you. What on earth is on Zhou Xian’s gift list?"
Qin Yu also frowned.
Not only Jiang Lan wondered, Qin Yu was likewise puzzled.
Qin Yu felt, he already had enough at his disposal. There shouldn’t be any chance of losing. But the reality shows... Zhou Xian’s gift list indeed made Jiang Fan hesitate.
"No matter what, I can’t lose," Qin Yu’s gaze sharpened.
"Uncle Lan." Qin Yu looked at Jiang Lan, "At this moment, as the Northern Pole Holy Emperor is wavering, if I increase my offer, could that gain his support?"
Jiang Lan pondered for a moment.
"Little Yu." Jiang Lan looked at Qin Yu, "Your offer is already substantial, a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure is an extremely precious artifact. Adding more to your treasures might not have much effect," he continued.
Qin Yu immediately frowned.
But Jiang Lan went on, "However..." Hearing this, Qin Yu immediately perked up his ears, it seemed there was still hope.
"Jiang Fan, as the Clan Leader of the Jiang family, values treasures like a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure to strengthen the family. In that case... We still have two methods," Jiang Lan continued.
"What are the two methods?" Qin Yu truly couldn’t think of any on his own.
Jiang Lan smiled and said, "The first method, leverage the father-daughter relationship between Jiang Fan and Li’er. Although Jiang Fan has made the marriage contest public, we cannot deny that Jiang Fan and Li’er indeed have feelings for each other. I will take Li’er to him, and let Li’er tell him directly... that she likes you. Let him grant your union."
"His daughter’s happiness should be able to influence him," Jiang Lan nodded.
Qin Yu also felt a surge of joy in his heart.
Indeed, if he were Jiang Fan, he would definitely consider his daughter’s feelings.
"The second method," Jiang Lan continued, "Jiang Fan wants to strengthen Snow City, right? It’s simple, just tell him directly that you possess another Life Soul Tears."
Qin Yu was startled.
He had Meteor Tear, a secret known by very few.
Jiang Lan continued, "Li’er possesses a drop of Life Soul Tears, and so do you. Once the two of you dual cultivate, the combination of your comprehensions will likely make one of you a Divine King very easily."
"Moreover, the two Life Soul Tears were transformed from the unique energy within the Life God King at the time of his demise. If the two Life Soul Tears merge, the energy of the original Life God King will reappear. Whoever receives these two Life Soul Tears might very well become the new ’Life God King.’"
Jiang Lan said this, and Qin Yu also began to understand.
The Meteor Tear itself consists of two parts, one is Space Law Comprehension, and the other is the energy of the Life God King. The energy of the Life God King is very unique, to the extent that it can even repair the soul.
"Together with you, Li’er might likely become a Divine King as well. Having his own daughter become a Divine King should also be very appealing to Jiang Fan," Jiang Lan said with a smile.
Qin Yu repeatedly nodded.
Yes, the two methods Jiang Lan mentioned were both very feasible.
"Implementing these two methods at the same time, the likelihood of success is even greater." Jiang Lan turned his head towards the courtyard door, "Li’er, you’ve been listening at the door for so long, come on in."
"Li’er?" Qin Yu released his Space Power, and indeed... Jiang Li, with slightly red eyes, was standing behind the courtyard door.
While talking with Uncle Lan just now, Qin Yu had been on edge the entire time, and hadn’t even noticed Jiang Li outside. Of course, this was also related to Qin Yu retracting his Space Power.
"Big Brother Qin Yu, Uncle Lan is right, I will go with Uncle Lan," Jiang Li walked over and said resolutely.
Qin Yu pondered briefly, then nodded, "Thank you." Qin Yu apologized with a smile to Jiang Li, who immediately shook his head.
A moment later, Jiang Lan took Jiang Li once again to the Northern Pole Holy Emperor Palace.

Still in that quiet and dim study.
"A hundred twenty billion years, is it going to continue like this forever?" Jiang Fan murmured softly, suddenly raising his head to see, in the center of the study, Jiang Li and Jiang Lan both appeared together.
"Little brother, you’ve come again?" Jiang Fan frowned and sighed gently upon seeing Jiang Li, "Li’er, what is it?"
Jiang Li looked firmly at his father and said, "Father Emperor, I hope you choose Big Brother Qin Yu."
"You hope?" Jiang Fan frowned.
"Yes," Jiang Li nodded, "Actually, I knew Big Brother Qin Yu back when we were in the Mortal World; he cultivated to the Divine World for my sake."
"You’re saying, that Qin Yu?" Jiang Fan’s eyes filled with disbelief, "It’s been almost twenty thousand years since you went to the Mortal World, could that Qin Yu cultivate so quickly?"
"Yes, if you don’t believe it, you can ask Uncle Lan, or even Zhou Xian," Jiang Li said directly.
Jiang Lan nodded, "Big brother, it’s true. Little Yu has always been diligent in his cultivation. The reason he could cultivate so quickly and even became an Artisan God, all of it was for the sake of marrying Li’er. Thus... he could give the Luo Yu Saber to you without hesitation. He could also write that first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure into the marriage gifts."
Jiang Fan began to believe it.
"No wonder, no wonder he could afford to give away two first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasures." Jiang Fan nodded, then frowned at Jiang Li, "Li’er, do you think your cousin Zhou Xian treats you poorly?"
Jiang Li shook his head, "I will not marry anyone but Big Brother Qin Yu." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Jiang Fan paused, then grunted lowly, "Nonsense!"
"Big Brother," Jiang Lan was also becoming angry, "Big Brother, doesn’t Li’er have any say in her own marriage? I think you’re the one who has fallen into a demonic state today. What exactly are you fantasizing about?"
Jiang Fan couldn’t help but look up angrily at Jiang Lan.
"What, you want to fight?" Jiang Lan laughed coldly. "Don’t forget, the Luo Yu Saber that Qin Yu gave to you, you then gave it to me." With the Luo Yu Saber, it was indeed impossible for Jiang Fan to defeat Jiang Lan.
Jiang Fan snorted coldly and said no more.
After all, he already possessed a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure. Giving the Luo Yu Saber to Jiang Lan also strengthened the power of Snow City.
"Jiang Fan, let me make it clear to you today. That Qin Yu, he is the host of the other one of the two Life Soul Tears left behind after Ah Mei died," Jiang Lan stared coldly at Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan was startled.
"What did you say?" Jiang Fan was stunned.
"Have you forgotten already?" Jiang Lan scoffed coldly. "Originally, when you all joined forces to kill Ah Mei, the two Life Soul Tears she shed before dying, one merged into Li’er’s body. If not for that, how many people would have participated when you publicly called for suitors?"
Jiang Fan choked.
The participants in the call for suitors indeed had shown up almost solely because of that one Life Soul Tear.
"These two children, they are as good as my own children, Jiang Fan, don’t be too heartless." A cold light flickered in Jiang Lan’s eyes. "Moreover, once these two children get married and cultivate together, the two Life Soul Tears will merge, making it very likely to give birth to a new ’Life God King’. Little Yu also said, that Life Soul Tear, he will give to your daughter!"
"If so, you are likely to have a daughter who will become the ’Life God King’," Jiang Lan continued, "and moreover, you will have a son-in-law who is an Artisan God."
"With Qin Yu here, Northern Pole Snow City becoming the strongest among the Eight Great Holy Lands is without a doubt. So I want to ask you, at this point, what are you hesitating for?" Jiang Lan stared angrily at Jiang Fan.
The heavy breathing of Jiang Fan echoed around the study.
"Little brother, let me cool down, okay?" Jiang Fan softened somewhat.
Jiang Lan quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Initially, Jiang Fan’s attitude had worried Jiang Lan, as it seemed Jiang Fan was somewhat supporting Zhou Xian.
But now that he had softened, it seemed that the earlier words had affected Jiang Fan.
"Big Brother, I hope you won’t make a decision that disappoints everyone. You also should know... what Ah Mei means to me, and what these two children mean to me?" Jiang Lan decided to apply pressure again.
Jiang Fan slowly nodded. "Little brother, I understand. Alright, you guys go ahead and leave. I need some time alone to cool down."
"Alright, then I’ll quietly await the result you announce in a few days," Jiang Lan said indifferently.
Immediately, Jiang Lan took Li’er’s hand, and the two of them vanished into thin air from the study. The study once again returned to its quiet and dim state, with only a long sigh echoing.
"It seems, a decision must be made."
Jiang Fan turned over his hand, and what appeared was the betrothal gift list handed over by Zhou Xian, the contents of which left Jiang Fan unable to settle his mind no matter what.
(Today’s three Chapters end, and the next Chapter will be the announcement of the result...)
