Chapter 2398 - The Decisive Battle (VI) (1/2)

Standing on a nearby roof, Wang Chong could see several familiar figures: ‘Zhang Que’, ‘Xu Keyi’, ‘Old Eagle’… they were all busy attending to the guests. He even saw ‘Golden Guards’ from the imperial household at the gate.

Wang Chong even saw people similar to his ‘mother’, ‘little sister’, ‘big brother’, and ‘second brother’. These people had normal expressions, but past their smiling faces, he could see their slack and unfocused eyes.

Wang Chong couldn’t even sense the pulses of a soul a normal person should have.

Farther inside, Wang Chong even saw the groom, ‘Wang Chong’, wearing a bright red robe.

Wang Chong was not at all unfamiliar with this kind of ability.

Wang Chong suddenly raised his head to the night sky and sternly said, “Heaven, come out!”

But all was quiet, and there was no response. Even the nearby ‘King of Foreign Lands Residence’ was as normal, everyone continuing to follow the ‘script’, their words unchanged. It appeared that they had not heard Wang Chong.

Bang!

Wang Chong’s expression chilled, and he extended a hand. The empty shell that was ‘Wang Chong’ immediately exploded. At the same time, Wang Chong’s Stellar Energy rumbled out like floodwaters, flowing into the earth.

The earth rumbled, and the King of Foreign Lands Residence, and even the entire capital, trembled as if on the verge of collapse.

“Hahaha, do you not even have this little patience?”

Laughter came from the skies, and as the voice rang out…

Boom!

A bolt of lightning came out of the darkness, the winds howled, and thunder rumbled. A dazzling golden pillar of light more than three hundred feet in diameter descended from the heavens, slamming into the King of Foreign Lands Residence. The shuddering instantly subsided, and everything returned to normal.

Across from Wang Chong, the dazzling light disappeared, leaving behind a golden ball of light floating in the darkness, and in the center of this golden ball was a blurry black figure.

This was Heaven!

Buzz!

As Heaven appeared, the air instantly tensed.

Powerful!

Incredibly powerful!

The destructive torrents emerging from Heaven’s body filled the world. At this moment, Heaven appeared like a dangerous, world-destroying demon god.

Though Wang Chong had been trying to track down Heaven this entire time, when he finally saw Heaven, his entire body tensed as he mustered all his energy.

“You wanted to see Us, Wang Chong, and We have fulfilled your wish!”

Heaven’s voice resounded through the world. A moment later, that dazzling golden light parted like water. In the center of the light, Heaven’s indistinct black silhouette slowly walked out, revealing to Wang Chong for the first time his physical body.

At this moment, even Wang Chong couldn’t take his eyes away.

But different from what he imagined, the figure in the golden light was not tall and majestic. Rather, it was the graceful and seductive figure of a woman.

When Heaven revealed himself, the world fell quiet, time seeming to stop.

Buzz!

But with one glance, Wang Chong’s pupils constricted as if he had been jabbed, and his face contorted and reddened in rage.

“Bastard!!”

Killing intent erupted out, and the buildings for several thousand feet around Wang Chong collapsed, instantly turning into powder. Even the ‘King of Foreign Lands Residence’ around Heaven shuddered, though Heaven quickly suppressed it.

“Heh! Is it really necessary to be this angry?”

Heaven smirked as he took several steps forward.

Different from what was imagined, Heaven was not some muscular man, or any man at all. He was wearing a white dress with drifting sleeves and bore the appearance of a peerless beauty. As the gentle breeze rustled his robes, he appeared like a fairy that had descended from the heavens.

But what Wang Chong cared about was this woman’s face. No matter how long had passed, even if it was in his dreams, Wang Chong could instantly recognize that familiar face.

Xu Qiqin!

Wang Chong had never imagined that the figure emerging from the golden light would be the person he had been seeking to save for three years, Xu Qiqin.

But this Xu Qiqin had a completely different bearing from what Wang Chong remembered. She lacked the gentleness and kindness that he remembered. She now seemed cold, aloof, and estranged.

At the center of her forehead was a mysterious and exquisite golden character, making Xu Qiqin seem even colder and more enigmatic.

But while Xu Qiqin was still ‘Xu Qiqin’, everything had changed.

When he saw that pair of strange eyes, he instantly knew that the one controlling the body was not Xu Qiqin, but Heaven!

He had been searching for Xu Qiqin this whole time, hoping to save her, even following Heaven all the way from the Turkic steppe to this spacetime maze, but unimaginably, she had been in front of him this whole time.

From the very moment he descended, Heaven had been controlling her body right in front of him.
