The Chu Emperor Ascends to Heaven, What He Saw Upon Exiting Sainthood

This complex look was quickly noticed by Chief Mu. Chief Mu did not know what had happened, but he knew that the Chu Emperor had told him to go in and talk, which proved that this matter was not simple.

Thinking of this, Chief Engineer Mu didn't say much, turned around, raised his hand, and made a gesture of invitation.

With his hands behind his back, the Chu Emperor lifted his foot and walked towards the Star Plucking Tower.

At this moment, everyone in the Star Plucking Tower has left. Because of what the Chu Emperor just said, no one dares to stay here.

The Chu Emperor walked very slowly, glancing around with each step as if trying to memorize everything around him.

Upon reaching the stairwell, he stepped onto the stairs, placed his hand on the handrail, and slowly felt around.

Standing behind him, Chief Mu frowned even more deeply upon seeing the situation.

"I remember you said you wanted to keep a low profile, but you built this nine-story building." The Chu Emperor lowered his gaze, and no one could understand the meaning behind it.

"Later, when Eunuch Wei found out, he came over and started cursing at you. The two of you started arguing. Eunuch Wei has a short temper, so he pushed you onto the stairs, which damaged the handrail. It was only later that it was repaired."

This long-ago story was recounted by the Chu Emperor.

Chief Mu, standing beside him, gently shook his head. "He's older than me, so I have to give way to him a little. Otherwise, would I, a Saint, be afraid of someone who's only a Transcendent?"

That's what he said, but after he finished speaking, he looked around and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he didn't see Eunuch Wei.

As is the case with people, there will naturally be mutual restraint. The head of the Imperial Bureau of Surveillance was only afraid of Eunuch Wei in the Imperial Palace.

The Chu Emperor ignored Chief Mu's little gesture and gently wiped the armrest with his hand. "We are all family, so there's no need to hold grudges over such trivial matters in the future."

These words made Chief Mu's already anxious heart even more anxious.

"Your Majesty, I have a feeling that you seem... seem..."

He didn't say what came next, nor was it convenient to say it in this situation.

But his meaning was already very clear.

The Chu Emperor turned his head, his gaze, which had been lowered, finally landing on Chief Mu, his tone laced with mockery. "It's like you're giving your last words, isn't it?"

Chief Mu remained silent, but the anxious look in his eyes revealed his current state of mind.

"Let's go, to the ninth floor for drinks!" The Chu Emperor waved his hand, not dwelling on the matter, and strode up the stairs.

Chief Mu didn't ask any questions and followed behind.

The two walked uphill and finally arrived at the ninth floor.

Chief Mu lit the oil lamp, took out two jars of aged wine from the cabinet next to him, handed one jar to the Chu Emperor, and opened the other himself.

The Chu Emperor opened the wine jar, tilted his head back and took a sip, wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, and exclaimed, "That's refreshing!"

Chief Mu also took a big gulp. "The last time we drank was when Xu Bai was around. He was going to the Ghost Market to find that Demon Heart, so I drank with him."

"Xu Bai ..." The Chu Emperor's eyes were deep. "He is a good boy. Although he is sometimes too greedy for profit, he is never ambiguous when it comes to matters of principle."

"Hmm!" Chief Mu nodded in agreement, a look of hesitation on his face.

There were some things he really wanted to ask, but it seemed that the Chu Emperor didn't want to tell him.

"Ask away." The Chu Emperor took another sip of wine, his eyes clear. "At our level, even getting thoroughly drunk is a luxury."

Chief Mu gritted his teeth and finally asked the question that had been bothering him, "Your Majesty, you just said that you wanted to give your last words. What do you mean by that?"

The Chu Emperor reached out and patted Chief Strategist Mu on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "It's nothing. I'm going to die soon, and I want to hand over the throne of the Great Chu Kingdom to you. How about you become the emperor?"

"Whoosh!"

Chief Mu suddenly stood up and took two steps back.

"Your Majesty, why?"

He didn't try to stop him or persuade him; he just wanted to know the reason.

Judging from the conversation just now, he knew that the Chu Emperor was not joking with him, and that this matter was true.

But... why? How could a master at the Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade suddenly die? "Why..." The Chu Emperor's eyes showed a look of emotion. He went to the window and looked out over the entire Capital City from the ninth floor. "This Capital City is really nice. It's a pity that I still have many things to finish."

"Most people are already well-fed and clothed, but there are still many remote areas where people live in extreme poverty. These things will be handed over to you from now on."

"Furthermore, severely punish corrupt officials. When I sent Xu Bai to the Upper Capital, I had already plugged many loopholes, but there were still some who slipped through the net. I'm entrusting this matter to you as well."

"Finally, Xu Bai is a good boy. You must not scheme against him again. You must promise me that."

With each word he spoke, the Chu Emperor's tone became increasingly solemn, and by the end, he exuded a powerful pressure.

"Your Majesty!" Chief Mu strode up to the Chu Emperor of Chu Emperor, grabbed his sleeve, and asked urgently, "Are you... going to the Ghost Market?"

The Chu Emperor did not shy away from the topic and nodded. "Now that the world is unified, do you know that if the two Ghost Market were to unite, their path to sainthood would far surpass ours? We have no chance of winning, not even a sliver of a chance."

"I knew this all along. I lied to you. Even if the world is unified, we cannot enter the Ghost Market, because we can only start a war after the Ghost Market is unified, and we will not be affected by the rules."

"But by then, we will only be crushed. So this is my plan."

Chief Mu stood there, frozen in place.

Even he didn't know about this.

The Chu Emperor continued, "Only I know about this, but I don't know why Xu Bai also knows about it."

"Therefore, I will turn this situation around."

"How can we turn things around?" Chief Mu said with a bitter smile, "Even if His Majesty were to risk his life to try and turn things around, he would lose his mind and soul once he entered the Ghost Market."

The rules of the Ghost Market are unbreakable by anyone in the world today. Apart from Xu Bai, no one else has been able to enter and exit successfully while preserving their soul.

The Chu Emperor pointed to himself and laughed, "When I entered the Ghost Market, my soul was completely gone, but I am still a person. The supernatural hate the living, and the living hate the supernatural in the same way. Even without a soul, I can still overwhelm them with my instincts."

"What I want is time to develop, and an opportunity for you."

Chief Mu smiled wryly, "There are many who have attained sainthood in the Ghost Market, but His Majesty only has one."

That's true. The Chu Emperor only had one person go in, and he was also Entering Sainthood Expert, while there were many on the other side. There was simply no chance of winning.

"What if I were to Exiting Sainthood?" the Chu Emperor asked with a smile.

Chief Mu felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and stood frozen in place, without making a sound.

Exiting Sainthood...

If that's the case, even without a soul, one could still wreak havoc on the ghost market based solely on instinct.

"No!" Chief Mu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, even if death is inevitable, it must be your subject who dies first. Leave this matter to me, and I will wait until after I Exiting Sainthood..."

He didn't finish his sentence because the Chu Emperor pressed down on his shoulder, stopping him.

"Listen to me. I don't have much time left, and you still interrupt me."

Chief Mu shut his mouth.

The Chu Emperor said, "It will take you a long time to Exiting Sainthood. Even if the world is unified now and the rule of Exiting Sainthood is broken, it will still take time. But I can't wait any longer."

"I am the emperor. After the unification of the world, I have already touched the edge of Exiting Sainthood. Now I am just one step away from taking that step."

"When that time comes, I can buy you time. You can do your best to break through to the Saint realm or Exiting Sainthood realm to strengthen the human world. That is the only chance of victory."

"You are Qi Fortune Master, and with the addition of becoming the Emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom, the combination of these two factors will increase your chances of Exiting Sainthood. Only in this way can you increase the strength of the human world."

"There are other extraordinary experts and Entering Sainthood Expert who can also catch their breath."

Chief Mu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't utter a single one.

If such a method were applied to him, he would not hesitate to enter the Ghost Market and replace the Chu Emperor.

Even prominent figures like Prime Minister Wen Eunuch Wei would have entered without hesitation, but ultimately they were just short of the required qualifications.

"I've made up my mind. This matter is settled. I'm just here to let you know. And you absolutely mustn't tell Eunuch Wei." The Chu Emperor returned to the table, picked up the wine jar, and said, "Let's drink! Tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk."

Chief Mu's expression grew increasingly complicated. Finally, he sighed, walked to the table, picked up a wine jar, and clinked it against the Chu Emperor's.

"Your Majesty, are you willing to do this?"

"I'm reluctant to part with it," the Chu Emperor said directly, "But I am also willing to."

When the wine jar was empty, the Chu Emperor seemed to become very agitated, and threw it on the ground, smashing it into pieces.

"I cannot get drunk!"

"Bring me all the wine!"

"Yes!" Chief Mu stood up and arranged all the wine jars in the cabinet.

The Chu Emperor opened the bottles one by one, pointing to the pile of wine. "Tonight, you will do nothing but drink with me."

As he spoke, he picked up a jar, tilted his head back, and drank it.

Chief Mu's face was grave, and he didn't say a word, only continuing to drink with the Chu Emperor.

This drinking session lasted all night.

The next day.

The Chu Emperor walked out of the Star Plucking Tower and returned to the Imperial Palace, where he happened to run into Eunuch Wei.

Eunuch Wei smelled the alcohol on the Chu Emperor and frowned. "Your Majesty, why have you drunk so much?"

The Chu Emperor was still not drunk at all. "I was just being presumptuous. Eunuch Wei, you will not attend the morning court session today."

After agreeing, Eunuch Wei felt that the Chu Emperor was becoming increasingly strange.

The Chu Emperor only said this once, then turned and left, returning to his Imperial Study, closing the door, and taking out a memorial.

He intended to write something, or perhaps a last message, but ultimately gave up.

"Last words? No, just let the whole world know."

Thinking of this, the Chu Emperor left the Imperial Study and went to the largest main hall in the entire Imperial Palace.

This is where the morning court is held, but since there is no morning court today, no one is here.

The Chu Emperor sat on his dragon throne, gently stroking it.

After a moment, his scattered gaze gradually focused.

"It's time... Let's begin! Let me see what kind of scoundrel Exiting Sainthood really is!"

A powerful aura emanated from the Chu Emperor.

The next moment, as long as it is within the territory of the Great Chu Kingdom, including the Barbarian Tribe and the Great Yue Kingdom.

Countless golden dragon energies are rising into the sky.

Anyone in the industry can see it.

Everyone was terrified by what they saw.

The Border Pass the Great Chu Kingdom.

Rising Dusk King stared in disbelief. "This is dragon energy! Why is he mobilizing so much dragon energy? What does he want to do?"

Unable to understand, he went outside the Camp Tent and looked up at the golden sky.

For some reason, he suddenly felt very uneasy, as if something big was about to happen and it was related to him.

Besides panic, there was also a sense of fear, as if something was about to be lost.

"Guards!" Rising Dusk King's eyes turned red. "I'm leaving this place to you. I'm going to the Capital City to see what my brother is up to!"

After saying that, Rising Dusk King disappeared without a trace, using his strongest Military Formation Method to rush off.

Countless soldiers could see that the golden light in the sky was converging towards the Capital City.

The Great Yue Kingdom.

Bai Zhong and Liu Yue are discussing various matters that will follow.

Since the reconstruction of the Great Yue Kingdom began, everything has become very complicated, so the two of them need to consult together.

When the golden dragon energy took flight, the two stopped what they were doing and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

"What exactly does the emperor want to do?"

Nobody knew, but the shock of this scene was truly immense.

Barbarian Tribe.

Xu Bai held Chu Ling in his arms and gently patted her back.

Just now, at the moment the golden dragon energy rose, Chu Ling's eyes suddenly reddened. She didn't know what sad thing she remembered, but she hugged Xu Bai and started crying.

"My husband, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a pain in my heart, a feeling of great discomfort, as if I'm about to lose something."

Chu Ling, nestled in Xu Bai, raised her head, her eyes already swollen from crying like peaches.

Xu Bai hugged Chu Ling tightly, gently comforting her.

Although he was trying to comfort him, he still felt extremely uneasy looking at the golden dragon energy in the sky.

Within the current territory of the Great Chu Kingdom, everyone in the industry can see it clearly.

They all knew that something big was about to happen, and they were all waiting.

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Looking at the main hall enveloped in golden dragon energy, Eunuch Wei tried to break in several times, but failed.

Even with his strength, which allows him to trade one life for one with someone who has entered the Saint realm, there's simply no way for him to succeed.

All the civil and military officials gathered in the open square below the main hall.

Even Prime Minister Wen, who had been in seclusion, made an appearance.

Prime Minister Wen stepped forward and grabbed Eunuch Wei by the collar.

The usually gentle and refined scholar's face turned extremely ferocious.

"Wei Fenghua!"

"You've always been by His Majesty's side, why did this happen? Why do I feel so panicked, as if the sky is about to fall?"

"Give me an explanation!"

Normally, Eunuch Wei would have retaliated, but at this moment, Eunuch Wei looked completely lost and dejected.

"Let me speak."

A voice rang out, Chief Mu rushed over from afar. Upon seeing the scene before him, a look of sorrow flashed in his eyes.

All eyes were on him as he recounted everything that had happened the previous night.

"Boom!"

Chief Mu took a few steps back, looked at Prime Minister Wen and Eunuch Wei who were attacking him, and did not fight back.

"You son of a bitch!" The usually law-abiding Eunuch Wei cursed for the first time, "Since you knew, why didn't you say so and let His Majesty do this?!"

Prime Minister Wen roared, "That old scoundrel Mu is no son!"

Chief Mu said with a wry smile, "If His Majesty tells you, can you stop him?"

It was just a simple sentence, yet it silenced everyone present.

Stop him? Who can stop him? In this world, even King Rising Dusk King cannot stop the Chu Emperor once he has made up his mind.

"We, as his subjects, can only do what His Majesty instructed after His Majesty has left," Chief Mu continued.

"If His Majesty passes away, we cannot fail him for everything he has done. In the end, we must take over the entire Ghost Market."

No one answered him, and no one spoke, because at that moment, the dragon energy enveloping the main hall finally began to move.

In the sky, golden dragon energy was being compressed rapidly.

The dragon energy transformed into a large golden sphere, which was gradually being absorbed.

The dragon energy diminished at a visible rate, and gradually, the dragon energy in the entire hall disappeared completely.

The next moment.

A towering figure emerged from within, gradually revealing itself to the crowd.

"His Majesty!"

Upon seeing this person, the civil and military officials present quickly stepped forward, wanting to speak.

Before they could speak, the Chu Emperor slightly raised his hand and pressed it down forcefully.

Such a simple action rendered even Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade like Chief Master Mu completely immobile.

The Chu Emperor had already reached the Exiting Sainthood Realm, a realm that was overwhelming for everyone else. However, at this moment, the Chu Emperor's expression was unusually grim.

He looked up at the sky, where the dragon's aura had vanished, and murmured to himself.

"So this is what is meant by Exiting Sainthood."

"I think I saw something terrifying when I was Exiting Sainthood."

"It's like a kind of despair, a terrifying despair."

"What exactly is it? What is the concept of Exiting Sainthood'? And why am I seeing it?"

"Is it, or him, or her?"

Everyone present heard every word spoken by the Chu Emperor.

After all the whispers subsided, the Chu Emperor glanced at everyone with a complicated expression, especially when he saw Chief Mu, he suddenly said something.

"I made a hasty breakthrough and didn't see anything more."

"If you break through, you must take a closer look and see what that terrifying despair really is!"

Chief Mu was unable to speak. He was constantly suppressed by the Chu Emperor. He wanted to speak, but the Chu Emperor simply wouldn't let him.

"Once you see it, you'll understand—it's filled with so much despair and fear."

"There are so many. They have lost their minds and become insane, but in their insaneness, there is also a mixture of reason. So many... like many people, but they are not human."

As he spoke, the Chu Emperor slightly raised his hand.

Suddenly, a gigantic crack appeared in the sky, emanating countless chilling energies.

Shadows emerged from the cracks, but instead of entering the human world, they looked out from within the cracks with murderous and indifferent eyes, like butchers who only knew how to reap lives.

An eerie sound came from inside.

"Exiting Sainthood... Exiting Sainthood in the mortal realm, opening the rift in the Ghost Market. What do you intend to do!"

The eerie being at the Saint level stood within the crack, its cold gaze fixed on Chu Emperor.

The Exiting Sainthood allowed him to freely open the Ghost Market, something the Strange Ones hadn't anticipated.

Even they couldn't close the crack.

The Chu Emperor ignored the strangeness and lowered his head in thought. After a moment, he finally raised his head with a smile on his lips.

"I am a man of integrity in this world. To paraphrase what Chief Mu said, I should have some class and leave something behind. Today, I will leave something for all living beings."

As he spoke, the Chu Emperor's body slowly rose into the air, heading towards the crack.

Upon seeing this scene, the Saintly Being's face turned horrified. "You want to come in? Aren't you afraid of losing your soul? I understand, you want to become something that exists only on instinct, to kill us!"

After saying this, Rusheng Weiyi did something very strange: he turned around and ran away.

The other strange occurrences didn't linger either; they vanished completely.

As the Chu Emperor rose higher and higher, his aura grew stronger and stronger, and words flowed from his mouth.

"Today, I enter the Ghost Market to seek peace for humanity. Even if I die, I will have no regrets."

"All of you under heaven, remember this: I have not given you much time. You must overcome all obstacles and go further."

"Those who have attained sainthood should quickly Exiting Sainthood, and those who have transcended the ordinary should quickly attain sainthood, only then can the situation be overturned."

"Otherwise, humanity will be in grave danger."

As the Chu Emperor spoke, every word he uttered resounded throughout the land, and everyone in the industry could hear it clearly.

To countless people in the industry, the scene of the Chu Emperor ascending to heaven had appeared.

In the Great Chu Kingdom, people in the business community are not required to perform the rite of kneeling.

But as they looked at the scene before them, their knees suddenly buckled and they fell to their knees.

Each person wore a resolute expression, but the sorrow in their eyes could not be concealed.

The Emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom, truly the number one person in the world, should have enjoyed all the riches and honors, but now he has to enter the Ghost Market alone.

Why?

It is for the benefit of all people.

These people are the beneficiaries.

And this is precisely why they perform the kneeling ceremony.

In the sky, the Chu Emperor drew ever closer to the rift, and he spoke slowly again.

"Remember, my last words are to inform all those in the world who are involved in the business."

"You are born different from ordinary people and possess powers that ordinary people cannot have."

"I hope that if disaster strikes, you will die before the people."

"Just like... I died before you."

In the sky, the crack is getting closer and closer.

The Chu Emperor turned around, took one last look at his civil and military officials, and said with a smile, "I'm leaving. In the history books, write a good one about me."

After saying that, he plunged into the crevice alone.

The surrounding cracks began to shrink and eventually disappeared.

The power that had been wiping out the civil and military officials disappeared, and they returned to normal, able to move freely.

The entire room fell silent; no one spoke, the silence as still as a calm lake.

Just then, a civil official suddenly knelt down and prostrated himself in the direction where the Chu Emperor had disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, one after another, civil and military officials prostrated themselves on the ground.

Even Chief Mu, Eunuch Wei, and Prime Minister Wen knelt down.

A series of sounds rang out...

"Your Majesty, may you rest in peace!"

Throughout the world, everyone in the industry who witnessed this scene was repeating the same phrase.

In the wilderness.

As Rising Dusk King, he watched the Chu Emperor disappear from the sky. Once everything was gone, his eyes were filled with unconcealable sorrow.

"Brother... you're leaving first..."

"We've been brothers for so many years, how could you have kept it from me too? This is bad, this is bad..."

"Let me, your younger brother, see you off on your final journey."

Rising Dusk King sighed and continued on his way into the city, his back revealing endless loneliness.

The Great Yue Kingdom.

Bai Zhong and Liu Yue exchanged a glance, both filled with emotion.

"After being his enemy for so many years, I admire him today." Bai Zhong said, "He bought time for the people of the world, and I have to admire him. Well then, let us go to the Great Chu to keep vigil for him." Liu Yue stood up.

Bai Zhong and said, "That's right."

The two did not linger and headed towards the Great Chu Kingdom's palace.

Barbarian Territory.

Xu Bai held Chu Ling tightly, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Chu Ling had stopped crying and was staring blankly at the white clouds in the sky.

The scene of the Chu Emperor ascending to heaven was gone, but she still watched it.

Xu Bai patted Chu Ling on the back. "Get ready."

Chu Ling turned her head blankly, without saying a word.

"It's time to go to the Great Chu Kingdom's palace to see your father off." Xu Bai hugged Chu Ling again.

Chu Ling leaned against Xu Bai, nodded gently, and said weakly, "Husband, I have no father anymore."

Xu Bai remained silent.

The Imperial Palace of the Great Chu Kingdom.

At this moment, countless people are rushing there.

The magnificent main hall was now covered with white cloth.

All the civil and military officials were dressed in white linen robes and knelt in the open space in front of the main hall.

The funeral proceeded as scheduled, presided over by Rising Dusk King.

Xu Bai had already arrived with Chu Ling Chu Ling was dressed in mourning clothes and kneeling in front of a coffin.

There was nothing in the coffin except for a jade pendant that the Chu Emperor usually cherished.

Xu Bai remained silent. He had something to say, but didn't know how to begin.

He thought that if the Chu Emperor could leave behind a remnant of his soul in the mortal world, perhaps he could still awaken the Chu Emperor using the same method he had used to awaken Liu Qingfeng.

If the Chu Emperor enters the Ghost Market, his soul will definitely be erased.

If they can survive and retain a remnant soul, combined with the original method of awakening, it might be useful.

But... there was no remnant soul.

That method is no longer effective.

As people kept coming forward to pay their respects to the coffin, Xu Bai stayed with Chu Ling the whole time.

The follow-up work is still underway.

Xu Bai also learned that Chief Mu should be the next emperor.

No one objected, because it was the Chu Emperor's will, and even after the Chu Emperor went to the Ghost Market, no one dared to refute that statement.

Xu Bai had absolutely no interest in these things.

He now felt an extremely strong sense of urgency. Even someone of the Chu Emperor's Exiting Sainthood level could only resort to such a self-sacrificing method to buy time for the world.

What about him?

"Now that this matter is settled, let's finish all the progress bars for the Barbarian Tribe," Xu Bai thought.

As I thought about this, time gradually passed.

Even into the night, Xu Bai remained there with Chu Ling.

He thought nothing else would happen.

Unexpectedly, Chief Mu suddenly walked over.

"I have something I want to tell you. Come with me for a moment."

It's normal that Chief Mu isn't in a good mood; nobody's in a good mood right now.

Xu Bai glanced around, whispered a few words of comfort to Chu Ling, and said that he needed to go out for a while. Then he followed Chief Mu to a secluded place.

"What is it?"

He looked around, wondering what was going on.

The fact that he was suddenly called over at this time must mean something extremely important, so Xu Bai was slightly curious.

With a complicated expression, Chief Mu recounted to Xu Bai the scene that the Chu Emperor had Exiting Sainthood when he ascended to heaven.

"Madness and reason?" Xu Bai frowned. "You suspect it's related to me?"

Chief Mu nodded, making no attempt to hide anything, and said directly, "That's right, but I don't know the specifics, so I can only tell you."

Xu Bai said, "I'll say it one last time: I don't like being schemed against by others."

The schemes that Chief Mu had plotted against him in the past still left a deep impression on him.

Xu Bai felt that since Chief Mu had told him all this, there was likely some kind of conspiracy or trickery involved.

Chief Mu smiled wryly and said, "I didn't mean to scheme against you. His Majesty said you are a good child, and I promised him, so I would never do such a thing."

"The reason I'm telling you this is to remind you that if you see these things when you Exiting Sainthood, don't do anything about it. Just pretend you saw them."

Upon hearing this, Xu Bai frowned even more deeply.

That's an interesting statement.

Is Chief Mu afraid that he might do something reckless?

To be honest, it's quite possible. After all, it's so similar to the Heavenly Change, and he really wants to give it a try.

But everyone has their limits when it comes to courting death, and Xu Bai is someone who knows those limits.

"I understand," Xu Bai said.

"What are your plans next?"

"Hurry up and break through to Exiting Sainthood," said Chief Mu. "That way, I can provide another Sainthood spot for everyone."

"I don't know how long His Majesty can hold out, but I hope there will be more time."

"If... we can't hold out any longer and our side hasn't developed yet, I will follow His Majesty's path."

Xu Bai remained silent.

"Alright." Chief Mu patted Xu Bai on the shoulder. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Spend more time with Chu Ling. She must be very sad."

With that, Chief Mu left.

Xu Bai stood there, carefully recalling what General Manager Mu had said, and felt a headache coming on.

He knew that the origin of the cheat system was definitely not simple; it couldn't have appeared out of nowhere.

However, he encountered difficulties as soon as he obtained the cheat, so he has been using it ever since. Since there are no clues to find out, he has temporarily put it aside.

Now that a clue has suddenly appeared, Xu Bai is, to be honest, very interested.

"It's still a long way from entering the Holy Capital," Xu Bai thought. "We'll see when the time comes."

With that in mind, he prepared to return to the main hall.

As for what the Chu Emperor saw, we'll talk about it when he Exiting Sainthood. After all, he didn't see it with his own eyes and doesn't know what it was like. Some things can only be known by seeing them with your own eyes.

Xu Bai lifted his foot, ready to go back.

Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, he suddenly saw a person in the darkness.
