The living world, High Heaven Court! Inside Heaven's Fate Pavilion!
Zhong Shan's expression was slightly gloomy as he sat at the desk and gently unfurled a scroll of imperial edict. It was Great Zheng's highest imperial edict—the Investiture of the Gods!
As the Investiture of the Gods opened, the names of all the court officials appeared on it!
Zhong Shan swept past the list of court officials and looked toward the list of empresses at the very front. First Empress, Wei Kui Er!
When he saw that name, Zhong Shan's eyes softened slightly, followed by a trace of bitterness.
The names of the court officials all shone with seven-colored radiance. Only Wei Kui Er's name was dim and utterly gray-white!
Zhong Shan said bitterly, "Girl, that fellow Nian Wu Xiang manifested your appearance. Though I wanted to kill him, in the end, I couldn't bring myself to strike with all my strength when he took your form. After all these years, I haven't forgotten your appearance in the slightest. I've buried it deep in my heart, and it has only grown more vivid. Are you still alive?"

The Investiture of the Gods suddenly trembled faintly, as if responding to Zhong Shan's words. Wei Kui Er's name suddenly flashed with a faint red light, then vanished in an instant!
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!"
Zhong Shan suddenly rose to his feet. His movement was so forceful that the chair beneath him was shaken apart, and the resulting crash rang out beyond the room.
"Sacred King, Sacred King, are you all right?"
A large number of guards immediately rushed in from outside.
"Get out!" Zhong Shan bellowed.
"Guard all four directions. No one is to disturb me. Anyone who dares intrude is to be killed without mercy!" Zhong Shan roared at the guards
