Chapter 419: Reunion

Chu Mo found himself in a large s.p.a.ce; he looked around and found himself in a forest with different trees scattered everywhere. He looked in the distance to see mountain ranges that rose to the heavens.

He quickly used his Divine Sense to see if there were animal powerful animals in the forest, then sighed in relief when he realized that he was alone.

"System, where is this? And what is going on?"

"This is a Safe Zone that the system created in case the host is in danger and requires to run away. Be warned that with the damaged state of the system, this place is not always available"

"Oh," replied Chu Mo before taking a deep breath. He knew that his system was really damaged after bringing him into this world, and although it has fixed some abilities, it was still a long way to go.

"So, what is the situation? Why was I forced to run away?"

"It was detected that the Son of Destiny was killed."

"What? Zhou Shu is dead? How is that possible? Who killed him?"

"According to the system's calculations, some people from the Upper Realm arrived in this world and killed him."

"Wait, system, I thought that you said that only after lowering Zhou Shu's luck could I be able to kill him? How did these people do it?"

"This system has no exact answer but can guess the method used. Most likely, they possessed a weapon or way to negate the luck of the Son of Destiny."

Chu Mo frowned after hearing this. During his reign as Demon Lord, he gathered a lot of information about the upper realm. He knew that the people there were more advanced in many ways than in this world.

He also understood the reason that the system wanted him to conquer this world and have enough luck before going there. But, he did not expect that the people came here in advance.

And since the system asked him to run away, these people are most likely very powerful and probably wanted to eliminate him for reason.

"System, what's the next plan?"

Without a mission to accomplish, Chu Mo felt lost and without a sense of purpose; he did not like this feeling.

"The system will use some of its last power to create a Void Boat for the host and provide the coordinate of the Upper Realm. After arriving there, the host has to find a way to acquire an Ident.i.ty Token, grow stronger and eventually fight in the Heaven Will Battle."

"Then, what's going to happen to you?" hurriedly asked Chu Mo.

"The system will temporarily enter Sleeping Mode, and only the most basic functions will be available."

Chu Mo sighed in relief. As long as the system was not completely gone, everything was fine. In this scary world, he relied on the system to be as powerful as he was now.

Suddenly losing that support made him feel very uncomfortable. Thankfully, it was only temporarily sleeping.

On the sun, w.a.n.g Wei looked at Chu Mo that was in a secluded place inside his large s.p.a.ce ring, and nodded his head. He took out the Supreme Tier Void Boat that he had and sent it to him.

Then, while he was trying to find the coordinate of the Beginning Profound Continent through Karma Thread, he was also refining the innate treasure that he simpled named Void Golden Chariot.

A week later, he discovered the coordinates and sent Chu Mo on his way; he was happy to plant a chess piece in that world. His main purpose is to gather information and rare resources that might be beneficial to him.

As for Chu Mo becoming a Great Emperor, w.a.n.g Wei was not confident in his chances. Plus, if he did become one, his Spirit Particle along with his false memories would be discoveredunless w.a.n.g Wei could become one before him and reinforced these measures.

That way, he would have a Great Emperor as a puppet. However, all of these are for the future.

A few weeks later, he finally refined the golden chariot and became its master. He discovered a ma.s.sive world inside the chariot, even larger than most Great Thousand Worlds. Most likely, this was supposed to be the place that Zhou Shu placed the people of the Heavenly Profound Continent when he ran away.

Then, he prepared to leave. While standing in the sun, he took one last look at this world. He could see an invisible red hue that covered the entire world.

He recognized these things as Qi of Calamity, signifying that a major catastrophe was about to hit this world. He sighed before entering the chariot and left; there was no hesitation in his actions.

Before Zhou Shu died, he ensured that the karmic blame for losing the chariot was placed on him, so he did not have any more worries.

Recent events have made him understand that the world is cruel and few people can control their fate. At any moment, catastrophe can come knocking, and most people will be powerless.

That fact applied to a wealthy and powerful person like him, let alone the powerless mortals of this world.

After leaving this world by entering the Endless Void, he controlled the chariot to head in the direction of his family through the bloodline connection he felt.

w.a.n.g Wei did not know how long he spent navigating in the dark emptiness of s.p.a.ce, but at some point, he saw an enormous Map that looked like it contained the stars inside.

He stopped in front of it as he felt that the connection led to that thing. Out of caution, he projected a holographic image of himself to display his ident.i.ty, and he thought that someone from his family would do the same if this map belonged to them.

But, he saw a woman coming out of the map and flying toward his chariot with unmatched speed countless times faster than the speed of light, Instantly, he realized that it was his mother so he appeared in front of her.

Yu Yan hugged him tightly; luckily, his injury was alleviated otherwise, she would have squeezed him to death.

"My poor son; look how bad of a shape you are in."

She looked at hid old face, white hair, wrinkles, and age spots. Tears started to fall down her eyes.

"Mommy is here now, and everything will be fine," said Yu Yan while crying uncontrollably.

"Mom, there is no need to cry, I'm fine," replied w.a.n.g Wei as he hugged his mother.

"Yes, you'll be fine. Once you return home, your father will fix you back to even better shape," she replied, but her tears did not stop. At this point, w.a.n.g Tian had also rushed up to hug his son.

"It's good that you're alright."

w.a.n.g Wei smiled as he internally sighed. With his eyesight, he could see some strings of white hair on his father's head. There were not there before, and should not appear because of a lack of lifespan.

So, the only explanation is excessive stress. It is obvious that his disappearance had a greater toll on his father than he might have let on. While the three of them were having their reunion, two more people also arrived.

"Grandma," said w.a.n.g Wei as he hugged Yun Zhaojun.

"You looked like you are the same age as me," she said with a smile and relief. There is nothing more unbearable for any parents than to see their children leaving before them. Given the choice, they would always want to take their place.

"Brat, what about me? How could you ignore the old man like this?" said w.a.n.g Chong, his voice so loud that it echoed in the void.

w.a.n.g Wei's mouth twitched after hearing this, "Well, my eyes are not working as well now in my current state, so I did not see you."

"Boy, don't think I can't whoop you now that you're stronger than me."

w.a.n.g Wei decided not to say anything more as he knew that this old ruffian can definitely use his seniority to give him a beating. Although he would not feel any pain with his fleshly body, it was still humiliating.

"That's what I thought," said w.a.n.g Chang. "Well, it's good that you're in better shape than the last time we saw you. And it even seems that you got some other chances," his eyes were fixed on the chariot when he said the last part.

"Wait, he was in even worse shape than this?" suddenly said Yu Yan while staring at her husband, making the latter have a wry smile. He was just thinking how great it was that his son did not look like an old devil as skinny as bamboo, that way his wife would not blame him.

But now

"Yan'er, this is not the time to be putting blame," added Yun Zhaojun. "What matters now is to return home and heal Wei'er to ensure that his Dao Foundation is not affected."

The other nodded and quickly began the journey home. During the entire journey home, Yu Yan never left w.a.n.g Wei's side, always hanging to him. Although helpless, he did not say anything.

More than a month later, the group finally returned to the Myriad Emperor World.

As w.a.n.g Wei floated in the sky and breathed in the air and spiritual qi between Heaven and Earth, he felt a great deal of comfort. He did not understand how much he loved this world until he was stranded in a place far away, without any friends, family, or even anyone he knew.

The feeling of home was truly comforting. No matter how much trouble or things wrong with this world, it was still his home, and he loved it.

w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes, and exhaled sightly before frowning, "Why do I feel like a lot of time pa.s.sed by?"

Endless Void, in a secret place in the Slaughter Trial:

Chen Tong was still recuperating from his last calculation of the secrets of Heaven and Earth. Suddenly, he felt something and opened his eyes. He waved his hand and the formations in his cultivation cave were removed, showing a shadowy figure waiting for him.

"What do you want?" he said with undisguised disgust in his voice.
