Starry Sky: My Life Star God, starting reward Ruan Mei

His golden eyes were as dazzling as the sun, yet they also revealed a touch of the gentleness of the moon.

She looked around in a daze. The constantly changing environment did not affect her spirit. She finally fixed her gaze on the black-haired youth not far away.

Familiarity, warmth, close connection... a mix of feelings welled up in her heart.

At the same time, a word slowly appeared in her mind—father?

The black-haired youth looked at her, a gentle smile on his face, and spoke in a clear voice: "My dear child, you were born from the beautiful wishes of all living beings."

The figure, not particularly imposing, yet unexpectedly majestic in her eyes, spoke as he walked towards her:

"You possess the courage to face the future and the strength to fight against suffering. You will lead people to turn sweet dreams into reality."

"Your consciousness is condensed by the will of all beings, steered by the concept of [hope], and sails toward a future that is yet unknowable to you and me."

"From the moment you were born, you possessed immense power and carried a heavy burden of conviction. I cannot dictate the direction of your spiritual growth. But I must tell you something..."

Bai Yan, whom she had labeled as her father, had already walked up to her.

He reached out and placed his hand on her head, gently stroking it.

She did not resist; a gentle warmth welled up in her heart.

"Your body has a foundation from the [Destruction] Star God, who is also one of your creators. But..."

Bai Yan moved his hand away, slightly bent his knees, looked at her straight in the eye, and continued, "When your creator stands in the way of all living beings' beautiful wishes, trying to destroy the path to their dreams, what should you do?"

Without hesitation, the girl answered firmly, "I will swing my sword at Him, even if it means being shattered to pieces."

"Very good, my dear child, may your hand holding onto your beliefs be as firm as your answer at this moment."

Bai Yan stood up and added, "People call those who hold the reins of destiny, who are like embodiments of profound philosophical concepts and possess great power, star gods. You are one of them, but you are different from them."

Under the girl's questioning gaze, he smiled and gave her some advice:

"You have a haven called home, and I will be waiting there to help you with your worries and questions."

"When your wings are not yet fully grown, I can provide you with shelter; when you want to spread your wings and fly high, you can also soar freely and write your own life story."

"I don't want you to become a coward who can't walk on his own, nor do I want you to die while learning to spread your wings."

"Remember your answer. If one day I stand on the opposite side of life, you should have the courage to draw your sword against me; similarly, if one day you fall into the abyss, I will bury you with the deepest sorrow."

The girl replied earnestly, "I will keep your teachings in mind."

"[Hope] is the destiny you hold in your hands, and people will use that as your name. You need a name that is more like a name."

Bai Yan pondered and considered his words before continuing, "Since you will give people wings to soar high, how about another name for you: Si Yu?"

"I really like this name."

"Alright. Let's say hello to your uncle and aunt first. It would be impolite for us to keep talking like this."

The so-called uncle and aunt were Nguyen Mai, who was already present, and Fu Li, the [memory] star god, who was gazing into the distance from the place where life began.

Bai Yan patted Si Yu's head, took her hand, ignored the [Memory] Star God behind him, and strode towards Ruan Mei.

Si Yu placed her other hand in front of her chest and bowed slightly in greeting: "Hello, Auntie."

Nguyen Mai currently has three Star Gods in her field of vision: the Star God of [Memory] Fu Li outside the "Laboratory" window, and [Life] and [Hope] in front of her.

Even she found it difficult to calm down, let alone after witnessing the birth of the Star God.

She refocused her attention and gave the girl in front of her a slight smile: "Hello."

Bai Yan led Si Yu around to face the distant [Memory] Star God Fu Li.

Like a crystal sculpture, the face is blurred and indistinct.

He wore a crown with a beaded curtain hanging down his head, and seemed to be watching over us.

Si Yu's lovely face showed a slight frown as she turned to Bai Yan: "Father, should I call him uncle or aunt?"

Bai Yan smiled and said, "Do as you please."

Before Si Yu could speak again, [Memory]'s voice came from the distant opposite shore: "...Hopeful drizzle falls on the heart, nourishing dreams to sprout. One step, two steps, three steps, take firm steps. Fate will no longer play tricks on us. The sky draws back the curtain, revealing a new movement..."

Every word that came out of His mouth was connected to one another, as if whispered.

Bai Yan smiled at him, as if meeting an old friend, and joked, "You still talk the same way. Would it kill you to be normal?"

"...Breaths intertwine with melody, you shape the future with your will, your body, like a tree of life, quietly grows branches and leaves, spreading out to the boundless starry sky..."

"Alright. There aren't many beings among the Star Gods who can truly communicate normally. I kind of miss Akivili."

As soon as Bai Yan finished speaking, [Memory]'s figure suddenly disappeared, as if to say: If you don't welcome me, then I'm leaving.

But Bai Yan actually knew that [Memory] would not say such things, nor would it have such thoughts.

He seems to have appeared only to etch a moment into the memory of the universe, and his disappearance and appearance were equally without warning.

Not only Bai Yan and Ruan Mei, but also Si Yu saw Him. The place where life began was the transparent sphere in Bai Yan's hand, which, in layman's terms, was his own storage space.

Therefore, their coordinates have not deviated from the Black Tower space station.

Fu Li looked out from beyond the place where life began, and also from beyond the Black Tower Space Station.

At this moment, most of the staff of the Black Tower Space Station had crowded into open spaces such as the platform, gazing at the spot where [Memory] Star God Fu Li had disappeared not far away.

Somewhere in the universe, the Black Tower watched the live surveillance footage, suppressing his excitement, and whispered, "What did my Star God friend do? He succeeded?"

Chapter 37 Let the Light Illuminate the Universe

At the beginning of life, Bai Yan erected a door for Si Yu, a door to step out of here and embrace the universe.

Symbolizing the beautiful wishes of all beings, once she steps out of this door, she will not remain by his side like a real child, but will immediately embark on a journey to bring courage and strength to people suffering.

Before Si Yu left, Bai Yan patted her head and instructed her:

"If you encounter any trouble, don't be ashamed to tell me. In the eyes of the world, you are a god with great power, but to me, you are just a newborn child."

"Please rest assured, father."

Si Yu raised the corners of her mouth, her smile as beautiful as a dream.

Bai Yan opened the door for her. Si Yu took one last look at her father before resolutely stepping through the door.

After Si Yu left, Bai Yan looked at Ruan Mei, who seemed lost in thought, and casually asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Nguyen Mai's expression had returned to its usual calm: "I'm wondering when I'll be able to truly witness that process of creating gods."

"It aligns perfectly with your personality and areas of focus."

"May I ask how many books you used this time?"

"About one layer's worth."

How many floors are there in total?

"you guess."

Before Ruan Mei could answer, Bai Yan extended his hand to her: "Don't ask these questions anymore, you'll know later. We haven't held hands in a long time, have we? Want to?"

Her slender fingers touched his palm through her gloves.

The two walked side by side through the rather spacious, ancient-style doorway.

The surrounding environment faded, and the shape of the office gradually solidified. The newly born Star Goddess had already embarked on her own path and was not here.

The office remained as usual, as if nothing had happened. But ripples and brilliance were about to spread throughout the universe.

Having just finished a major project, Bai Yan stretched with one hand and said, "I'm hungry. I want to eat plum blossom cake."

Nguyen Mai looked at him calmly: "Sometimes I even suspect that you invited me to come along just for dessert."

Bai Yan picked up the last piece of plum blossom cake left by Ruan Mei on the desk and smiled, "Perhaps."

After saying that, he stuffed the pastry in his hand into his mouth, puffed out his cheeks, and smiled at Ruan Mei again.

"Om-"

The vibration of his phone disrupted his interaction with his beloved assistant.

He took out his phone, placed it on the table, and tapped to connect a video call. The projection function on the front of the phone popped up on the floating screen.

A familiar face appeared among them; it was Black Tower himself.

The woman in the video looked at the [Life] Star God, who was still chewing with his cheeks puffed out in the office, and said, "So you've already succeeded?"

After the Black Tower discovered his true identity, he told his assistant about it, so Nguyen Mai was not moved by the current situation.

Bai Yan swallowed the plum blossom cake, took a sip of tea to smooth it down, and then looked at the Black Tower, answering her, "Didn't you all see it? If I hadn't succeeded, do you think Fu Li would have appeared?"

"May I ask about the newborn Star God?"

Bai Yan joked, "Ms. Black Tower is being quite polite right now. I thought you would ask directly."

"This is how I treat you. Isn't this normal communication between friends?"

"Alright. I'm glad you take this friendship seriously, Ms. Black Tower, but I hope you can relax a bit more."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Bai Yan got back to the main topic: "Actually, I don't need to say much about that child."

"Ok?"

Bai Yan smiled confidently and said, "Her existence will definitely not be as quiet as [nothingness]. You will see the light that illuminates the universe."

Instead of pressing the issue, Black Tower changed the subject: "What does that new Star God call you?"

"Father."

“As expected.” Black Tower offered her bold conjecture, “Could it be that you are building your own mythological system? And that you will be the Father God sitting at the highest position in the temple?”

Bai Yan shook his head: "Of course not. Even if the system is formed, it may just be a coincidence that happened by chance. I will only be a father who is busy with his children, not a high and mighty Father God."

Black Tower brought the topic back to the present, unable to contain his curiosity, and asked, "So when will I be able to see that light that illuminates the universe?"

"It might take a few system hours, or it might be in the next second."
