Past Events (2)

After giving birth, the woman's already weakened body was further harmed, but she harbored deep hatred. The person she had lived with for many years was actually the culprit behind her family's ruin!

So, at a banquet, the woman attacked the Emperor.

Unfortunately, the assassination failed, and the Emperor was furious. He imprisoned both mother and child.

The woman, who had already resolved to die, passed on the Spirit Puppet to her child before using the last of her life to enter the Imperial Palace once more.

When the child saw the woman again, her eyes were vacant, her body covered in countless new scars. Following behind her was the Emperor.

The child could never forget the despair and sorrow in his mother's eyes at that moment.

Since the Spirit Puppet had been passed to the child, the Emperor took him to an underground laboratory, hoping to obtain the Spirit Puppet's talent. But unfortunately, no matter what methods the laboratory researchers tried, it was all in vain, including many brutal and violent ones.

With no other options, the Emperor decided to raise the child until adulthood and then forcibly inherit the talent.

The story ends here, and that child was Bai Sheng.

The Scythe Blade had already sunk into the Emperor's neck, drawing blood.

"You dare..."

"Yes, I dare. How could I not? If I don't kill you, how can I avenge my mother's death? Who will mend my life? Tell me! Why should I be the one to die? Do you know how I endured those experiments back then? I wanted to kill you then, not just for my mother, but also... for myself!"

Bai Sheng interrupted the Emperor's words. A strange aura emanated from him, as if the Path energy within him had been sublimated. What was certain was that Bai Sheng's strength had increased again.

The Emperor knew he had no chance of survival. He seemed to accept his fate and asked:

"Have you... found a successor for Kasantiya?"

Bai Sheng nodded. He saw no reason to create further complications for this old man who was about to die.

"Hahaha, among my children, you are the most thorough. If not for the Spirit Puppet... cough, perhaps you would have been the next Emperor... I just wanted... to make Kasantiya better... Did I... do wrong...?"

Ignoring the blood flowing from his neck, the Emperor finished speaking and slowly closed his eyes, waiting for Bai Sheng to finish him off.

"It is fate, it is destiny. The Xianzhou people really have a point... Heh, what a pity, you are a bringer of disaster... cough... even if I die... you will still make those around you die for you..."

The Scythe Blade swung down. The Emperor of Kasantiya, with a final sigh, ended his era.

Perhaps out of pity, a light rain began to fall from the sky. The raindrops hit his face, and it was impossible to tell if they were tears or raindrops.

(Divider: Title Sister!

Title Girl: What is it?

Divider: I want a gift (ó﹏ò?)

Title Girl: There's nothing I can do, the contract conditions are set (?-???)

Divider: But if Author-kun keeps working for free, I won't have money to buy skirts anymore o(╥﹏╥)o

Author-kun: It's okay, it's enough to support you and Title Girl.

Divider: Wuwuwu~ Title Sister~ Author-kun~ I'm touched~)

"How does it feel to get revenge with your own hands?"

A white-haired man walked up to Bai Sheng, holding an umbrella and shielding him from the rain.

"Who are you?"

Bai Sheng raised Pandora. He had avenged his great wrong, but that didn't mean he lacked a sense of crisis. This white-haired fellow who could appear beside him so silently was no ordinary person!

At this moment, Pandora spoke in Bai Sheng's mind:

"Be careful, the person in front of you is powerful, but he doesn't seem to have any hostility towards you."

Bai Sheng's eyes changed. Someone who could make Pandora say "dangerous" had to be treated with the utmost seriousness, even if they showed no hostility.

"Don't be so impulsive, little peanut. You'll be my disciple from now on."

The man smiled, looking at Bai Sheng, who seemed a bit slow to react.

Hearing his words, Bai Sheng was stunned. What was this?

But suddenly, he remembered something, yet he couldn't be sure. He tentatively asked:

"Are you... from Xianzhou?"

Jing Yuan nodded, then took out his Jade Sign and waved it in front of Bai Sheng.

Four large characters were written on it: Real Name Online!

"You're really... Real Name Online?"

Bai Sheng felt his mouth twitch. He looked at the lazy white-haired man in front of him in disbelief.

"I came here personally. How about that? That's a lot of respect for you, isn't it?"

Jing Yuan smiled, his smile resembling that of a cunning old fox who had lived for an unknown age.

Then, as if threatening, he said:

"I wonder if little peanut's previous promise still holds. If you're playing games with me, this General will have to tie you up and take you to Luofu for deceiving the General of Luofu."

"Agree to him, Bai Sheng. Agreeing to this Envoy now will only bring you benefits, not harm."

Pandora's voice sounded again.

Bai Sheng quickly put down the Scythe Blade and bowed:

"Disciple Bai Sheng greets Master."

The two had chatted very well online, almost talking about everything except their identities, so Jing Yuan trusted Bai Sheng completely.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan laughed heartily. He got to travel for free and even gained a disciple to bring back; this trip was truly worthwhile.

"Alright, let's save the formalities for when we return to the Luofu. Your two little friends seem to be reaching their limit."

Jing Yuan pointed to Aatrox and Beleria, who were fighting Phantylia on the other side.

The aura of [Destruction] was very strong. Jing Yuan knew that the Prince was Phantylia, but his identity was not suitable for revealing her at that time. However, now, a few people fighting one Phantylia was still easy.

Was it that Jing Yuan could no longer lift the Stone Fire Dream Body, or was the General of the Divine Firmament Palace, the Heavenly Monarch who Drives Lightning and Chases Demons, unable to wield his blade? A mere external body, Jing Yuan could destroy it with a flick of his finger. He just wanted to let Bai Sheng practice his skills now.

Bai Sheng looked at the battlefield. The entire area was covered in frost, and Aatrox and Beleria were panting on the side.

Beleria was doing alright. Although she had wounds, thanks to the [Abundance] flesh she had eaten earlier, she was recovering quickly.

Aatrox was the most severely beaten. His Great Annihilation mode had also run out of time, and one of his horns had been broken off.

Even though Phantylia's strength wasn't that great, Aatrox, no matter how strong he was, was still just a Cataclysm Vanguard, while Phantylia, no matter how weak she was, was still a Lord of Annihilation.

Standing opposite them, on top of the frost, was the Prince who seemed to look down on ants, or rather—Phantylia
