Chapter 37

You Who Turned Into the Stars [化作星星的你 Huà Zuò Xīng Xīng De Nǐ] is the thirty-seventh chapter of Tong Yao's Guardians of Night.

Summary
In the Underworld, as Left-hand Man finishes his recovery and prepares to use Eye of Dimensions again, Yan Wen speculates that since Che Yongtai was in a good enough mood to even remove his armor, he might not actively try to kill anyone. But if something in the human world were to purposefully provoke him, the demon lord would still reactively kill him. The two demons then look through the portal and see a train rapidly approaching Che Yongtai, much to their shock.

Che Yongtai holds out his right hand and prepares to kill the people in the train as it closes in on him, terrifying Left-hand Man who believes that the entire train is doomed. However, instead of stopping or destroying the train, Che Yongtai collides with it, critically injuring him and knocking him unconscious. As the two train drivers call for an ambulance, the observation spell ends while the two shocked demons rant about his apparent weakness despite being a world-destroying demon lord.

Some time later in a hospital's operating room, a surgeon finishes his surgery on Che Yongtai while expressing his astonishment at the man's resilience since he is alive despite being hit by a train. As the surgeons leave to take a break, Che Yongtai wakes up and wonders where he is. He remembers being knocked unconscious by the train and expresses his desire to destroy it when he sees it again. Taking off his oxygen mask, Che Yongtai exits the room, scaring several nurses who shriek at him for being a pervert and run away. Che Yongtai is confused by their reactions and thinks he forgot to act cute, oblivious to the fact that he is naked. He walks over to the poster he saw the girls surrounding, which was an advertisement for a veterinary specialist in the hospital's northern sector. The man in the poster was wearing a black business suit with a red tie and was holding a monkey. Believing that his attire is what girls are attracted to, Che Yongtai snaps his fingers and manifests clothing of the same design on himself. He then hears two patients nearby asking if he is magician, as they witnessed his clothing creation spell. Ignoring the question, Che Yongtai says that since all the girls ran away, he will kill everyone on the floor to relieve his boredom.

Chapter Notes

 * Che Yongtai acquires his permanent attire.

Trivia
The poster Che Yongtai saw is a reference to the popular South Korean fantasy romantic comedy television series My Love from the Star, whose Chinese title is 来自星星的你 (Lái Zì Xīng Xīng De Nǐ, literally meaning "You Who Came from the Stars"). The poster's left side reads 来治猩猩的你 (Lái Zhì Xīng Xīng De Nǐ), a homphonic pun on the television series' title which literally translates to "You Who Came to Cure Apes".
