King Zhou's Residual Thought grew fainter and fainter, and it was about to disappear.
Shen Gongbao knelt and bowed, tears welling in his eyes.
"Leave. Seal the tomb shut! Don't let anyone disturb Daji and me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, King Zhou's Residual Thought vanished completely.
Shen Gongbao faced King Zhou's coffin and kowtowed deeply three more times.

"Rumble~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
The earth in every direction boomed, and the great mountain before them, which connected to King Zhou's tomb, began to shake violently.
As a vast amount of rock came crashing down, Shen Gongbao walked out of the cave entrance.
The moment Shen Gongbao emerged, the mountain slowly sank amid the thunderous rumbling. Heaven and earth collapsed, and the terrain of the surrounding mountains underwent a tremendous change.
In the blink of an eye, the mountain peak that had stood there vanished, while the courses of the surrounding ranges changed beyond recognition.
Shen Gongbao watched in silence the entire time.
Zhong Shan was increasingly satisfied with Shen Gongbao. Crafty, sinister, and ruthless? Was Shen Gongbao really such a person? Someone so loyal to Great Shang, so full of gratitude—could he truly be that kind of man?

After King Zhou's tomb was sealed shut, Shen Gongbao drew a deep breath and turned to look at Zhong Shan once more.
"Shen Gongbao pays his respects to the Sacred King!" Shen
