Chapter 244 - Epilogue - Pitiful Xuanyuan (9)

"Huuhuu… the time has come it seems… although this will be the last time you see me… I will be watching from now on… ehahaha… bring me my entertainment Xuanyuan!" the Ghost-Like existence said with an eerie laughter as it opened the section of the inner sanctum that Xuanyuan had never entered before.

"Wait… can you guarantee that no harm will come to Yao'er?" Xuanyuan shouted as the Ghost-Like existence started to go towards the secret room.

"Huuhuu… I can guarantee that she will not be harmed… ehahaha…" the Ghost-Like existence said as it laughed its way into the secret room.

"Well then my two little stars… I will leave you in here to do your little things… remember… the void and the calamity energy have to be perfectly united… the slightest complications in its balance will only cause you troubles that you cannot deal with… although that would be amusing… even I don't wish my little stars to die so early… anyways… this will be our eternal parting… ehahaha… don't forget to entertain me aahhhhh…" the Ghost-Like existence said as it disappeared, and a column started to rise from the centre of the room, with two orbs of energy resting on a treasure stand in the centre of the column, a colourless energy and a Vantablack energy.

"Un… Yao… are you sure you wish to do this with me?" Xuanyuan said as he held her hands.

"Mn…" Yao nodded shyly as the rosy clouds appeared on her cheeks as she thought about the union they were about to go through.

"Then come my beloved… today you will become the wife of Xuanyuan, and I your husband…" Xuanyuan said as they both placed their hands inside the source energy ball.

Yun Long, Yuehai and Est then found themselves before the present creator now and their eyes widened as they found themselves before the 'Xuanyuan' they witnessed in the memory.

"Xuanyuan… that is your true name?" Yun Long asked curiously.

"Yes child… although that person long died… I am now only the Void…" the Creator said as he returned to his 'giant' form, he then raised his hands once more.

Yun Long interrupted him as he asked him hesitantly "I do not understand… what was the meaning of showing me that memory? Although that King of the Dragon Gods is clearly the person you reference to as the God of Existence… how did the Calamity Goddess come to be when Aunty Yao was the one chosen to succeed it?"

"Good question… it is quite simple… the one who ended the first omniverse was your Aunty Yao…" the Creator said as he raised his hands once more.

'What?' Yun Long thought he misheard him due to how nonchalant he was about the matter.

"A long time had passed after that day… aeons may have passed before I fully control the Void Source and became the Primordial Embodiment of the Void, which allowed me to finally understand how the Omniverse worked… and what my role as the Void really meant…"

"Not long after, Yao finally managed to fully control the Calamity Source, which made her the Primordial Embodiment of Calamity… but when that moment occurred… her power started to mutate as the Void Dragon God re-emerged at that time, as he sung the song that dawned the end of reality…" the Creator said as he created another image to show what was occurring at that time.

"Ancestor! How are you here… forget that… are you aware of what is happening to Yao? Please ȧssist me ancestor!" Xuanyuan asked as he kneeled before his ancestors' silhouette.

"Imp... I warned thee... be awareth of yond... he shalt useth thee... yond warned thee... his successor was the only oneth... thee let him play thee... now yond the wrong oneth was chosen... calamity hath cometh" the noble voice rang out in the chaotic void, it caused Xuanyuan to panic as his ancestor would not say such ominous words without there being any merit in them.

"What does that mean ancestor? Can I do anything about it?" Xuanyuan asked as he was prepared to pay any price.

"Nay, the calamity hath mutated... the worst possibleth outcometh hath arrived... devouring and calamity... thee must suffer the consequences of thy actions... I shalt stand with thee as I shareth the blameth..."

'Devouring and Calamity… what does Ancestor Void mean…' Xuanyuan thought as his eyes shone in a Vantablack light, carefully analysing what the energy being released from Yao was doing.

"Im… impossible…" Xuanyuan muttered as he witnessed the calamity energy 'devour' the energy of existence, the void…

Everything he had learnt from the memories that came with the Void Inheritors before him had clearly shown that the Calamity energy would be perfectly balanced with the void energy.

Yet in his view, Xuanyuan could sense that the power she currently was emitting was purely devouring the void energy, not balancing against the void, like their powers should have.

"Devouring… could it be?" Xuanyuan muttered, a realisation dawned upon him, making him smile sadly, his ignorance led to this situation.

"Endeed... the devouring power of the Devouring Dragon God hadst mutated with the calamity sourceth... although this is what yond hadst wanted... yond warned thee naught to pick someoneth other than its chosen successor... I warned thee... yond shall play with thee..." the Void Dragon God said as he watched the energy off Yao explode, wiping out half of existence within a single moment.

"As you have seen… because I had someone not of the true Calamity bloodline gain the Calamity source… I had managed to not only cause the Omniverse to cease to exist… but I caused the death of my beloved Yao… and my beloved daughter…" the Creator said as he stopped showing the images.

Xing Yuehai and Est had already started to cry after they listened to his story as Est asked "Father… is our mother Yao?"

"No… in fact I am not your biological father… you will find out the truth regarding your background in the future with Yun Long…" the Creator said as he looked at Est, patting her and Yuehai's head with a sad smile.

Yun Long nodded, since he felt that the Creator was a little 'fake' when interacting with his 'daughters' so he explained to them previously that he may not be their birth father… but since he 'created' them, he could still be considered their father.

"I similarly also did not create them…" the Creator said as all three of their eyes widened in response.

"What do you mean?" Yun Long and Xing Yuehai asked with impatience.

"Like I said, you will understand in the future… so long as you do not mind… I will still be your Foster Father…" the Creator said with a smile as Yuehai just snorted and nodded, whilst Est also cutely nodded as the Creator carried on gently smiling.

"What happened after that Creator? What happened to Aunty Yao after her power went out of control and mutated?" Yun Long asked hesitantly.

"Her power was uncontrollable… and she slowly devoured the whole of existence, I attempted to force her back using my void power, but it was simply akin to attempting to stop a tsunami with a towel… nothing was stopping her ȧssault"

"There was always the forbidden land within the omniverse, which I know now to be the boundary of where the Primal Chaos exists, and I brought our two daughters there so I could protect them from their mothers' power" the Creator said as a sad look emerged on his face.

"But unfortunately, my silly daughter ran over to her mother in an attempt to calm her down with… and she was slowly devoured by her power…" the Creator said as Yun Long, Yuehai and Est had an astonished look in their eyes.

"Just as she was about to be devoured, Yao severed herself from the Calamity source, by severing her spirit from her soul and physical body, akin to severing her existence from reality… destabilising the calamity source… but her power had already destroyed the omniverse… returning the Omniverse to its base state within the nothingness…" the Creator explained as he showed another image with another wave of his hand.

"Yao also possessed the Primordial Embodiment of Reincarnation's source, she fused it with the damaged, dying soul of our daughter, fȯrċɨbŀƴ sending her into reincarnation, but before I could house her soul, it transported itself into the Primal Chaos… which is the truth regarding your Ancestral Goddess's history that you have heard about…" the Creator explained as Yun Long nodded with a sad look in his eyes.

"Even though she severed herself from the Calamity Source, its power was still continuing since it had remaining power, so Yao ordered me to destroy her…" the Creator said as Yun Long frowned.

"Obviously I denied her request, what sort of husband would I be do to do such a thing, but when she begged me, asking me to not allow h er to kill her only other daughter… but I still didn't listen…" the Creator said as he closed his eyes.

"But when the calamity energy was about to reach my remaining daughter… I closed my eyes… and ended what remained of my beloved, I wiped her from existence… leaving my sobbing daughter and I in the nothingness… that was the day Xuanyuan had died…" the Creator said as Yun Long just bit his cheeks, he tried to not react overly emotional to this information, but such a sad story even caused him to shed some tears.
