Everything continued as normal, and as the days went by, there remained a little more than a month until the wedding between w.a.n.g Chong and Xu Qiqin. At this time, w.a.n.g Chong was in his study, reading through various reports.

Once w.a.n.g Chong was done with the last report, Old Eagle spoke from his position behind w.a.n.g Chong, half-concealed in the shadows. “Your Highness, we have mobilized the men from the other countries, and even Lord Zhangchou Jianqiong and the others have gone out, as have the Shadow Dragons, but we have not found any information on the men in black.

“After that base of theirs was destroyed in the northern expedition, these people retreated to the shadows and have ceased to show any sign of activity.”

After a few moments of silence, a hoa.r.s.e voice came from the opposite corner of the study. “I don’t think they’re afraid or have actually disappeared. Their past style suggests that they’re probably getting ready for some bigger scheme.”

A slender figure wearing a thick, black metal mask walked out from the shadowy corner. It was Zhang Qiantuo, the faceless man, who had been gone for some time.

“Even you were not able to track them down?”

w.a.n.g Chong frowned as he looked at the faceless man.

The faceless man had not partic.i.p.ated in the Youzhou war. His mission was entirely different from any of w.a.n.g Chong’s other subordinates. Once the campaign at the Caspian Sea had concluded, the faceless man had resumed infiltrating the Celestial G.o.d Organization, attempting to find more clues, including the highest secret of the organization: Heaven’s location!

w.a.n.g Chong had never imagined that even the faceless man had lost track of the Celestial G.o.d Organization.

After a few moments of silence, the faceless man said, “The deaths of Firmament Supreme and Genesis Supreme were a major blow to the Celestial G.o.d Organization. In addition, there is an extremely formidable individual known as Essence Supreme. Although I’ve never seen him, this person seems to be capable of noticing infiltrators in the Celestial G.o.d Organization and investigating them.

“In addition, all suspected branches were made to stop any activities and dispersed. The branch I infiltrated was one of them.”

“Essence Supreme?”

w.a.n.g Chong frowned. This was his first time hearing the name.

The faceless man hadn’t gone into the details, but the name ‘Essence Supreme’ alone told him that this was a formidable character.

In the Celestial G.o.d Organization, besides powerful martial artists like Firmament Supreme and Genesis Supreme, there were also experts that specialized in strategy, intelligence, and observation.

“I see.”

w.a.n.g Chong lightly waved his hand and then closed his eyes in thought.

Old Eagle and the faceless man immediately understood, holding their breaths and stepping back, not daring to disturb him.

The two of them had been with w.a.n.g Chong for a very long time and knew that w.a.n.g Chong liked to close his eyes and think for major issues like this.

w.a.n.g Chong raised his head and muttered, “Heaven…”

This single word could cause countless ripples in w.a.n.g Chong’s mind.

The Youzhou war was over and the northern expedition had been a success. w.a.n.g Chong had been learning more and more secrets, but the more he knew, the more confused he became. In the end, he discovered that everything revolved around this name.

The Behemoth Army was inextricably connected to the Celestial G.o.d Organization.

The cold wave had been created by the Celestial G.o.d Organization.

Genesis Supreme, Firmament Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme were all Heaven’s subordinates.

All of this had been decided by Heaven, and the person the Sage Emperor had been on guard against this whole time had also been Heaven!

Defeating Genesis Supreme and destroying the dimensional teleportation gate in the extreme north did not mean victory over the Celestial G.o.d Organization.

So long as Heaven lived, he would never be able to rest easy.

So long as Heaven was willing, he could start a second Purification plan, overturn all human dynasties, even end human civilization.

This was one of the reasons w.a.n.g Chong had remained uneasy after the war’s end.

w.a.n.g Chong fell into deep thought.

“Understood. You may leave for now!” w.a.n.g Chong said with a wave of his hand.

When the Sage Emperor lived, he had spent many years and enormous effort in an attempt to find Heaven’s true location, but he had never succeeded. For Old Eagle and the faceless man to be unable to find him in this period of time was very normal.

No matter what, I have to drag him out!

w.a.n.g Chong slowly paced to his window, clenching his fist as he looked at the blooming plum flowers.

Hiss!

w.a.n.g Chong took in a deep breath and calmed down. But at this moment, he felt an uncomfortable sensation in his heart.

It wasn’t obvious at first, but it gradually intensified until it felt like he had a fire burning away at his body.

This burning sensation intensified, and he felt as if his blood was beginning to boil.

Berserker Syndrome!

w.a.n.g Chong trembled as the thought occurred to him. w.a.n.g Chong was extremely familiar with this sensation, but he felt that this flare-up was different from any other he had experienced.

Berserker Syndrome!

This was a hereditary illness of the w.a.n.g Clan.

Normally, only a single person would suffer from it in each generation, but in this generation, both w.a.n.g Chong and his older brother w.a.n.g Bei were afflicted by Berserker Syndrome.

w.a.n.g Chong clearly recalled that he had overcome this berserk blood three or four years ago, when he had first been reborn, and he had also succeeded in suppressing it. But for some reason, after a long time, this desire to destroy had suddenly erupted once more.

Moreover, perhaps because it had been suppressed too long, w.a.n.g Chong sensed that the Berserker Syndrome was at least ten times more intense than before.

Bang!

As w.a.n.g Chong was doing his utmost to suppress it, boom! That flame of slaughter in his heart exploded.

w.a.n.g Chong’s vision went red, and his veins bulged out across his body. He felt an overwhelming desire to slaughter, wanting nothing more than to engage in a ma.s.sacre this instant!

“How could it be like this?”

w.a.n.g Chong grimaced. Not daring to be careless, he mustered all his strength to suppress the Berserker Syndrome.

w.a.n.g Chong had some experience with the Berserker Syndrome by now, but for some reason, the more he tried to suppress it, the fiercer it became.

Moreover, past methods had completely lost effect on the Berserker Syndrome, making w.a.n.g Chong incredibly uneasy.

There was nothing normal about this.

But w.a.n.g Chong didn’t have the time to deeply ponder this, because as he was suppressing his turbulent blood, something completely unexpected happened.

Buzz!

A sharp killing intent, as thin as a hair, pierced through his window and locked onto w.a.n.g Chong.

This killing intent was like a lit match thrown onto oil, instantly detonating the murderous desire that w.a.n.g Chong had been doing his utmost to suppress.

A few moments later, the madness in w.a.n.g Chong’s mind grew ten times stronger.

“Who’s there?”

w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes flew open, and one could see that they were already streaked with red.

Boom!

w.a.n.g Chong shot out of the study to track down that killing intent.

At that moment, w.a.n.g Chong spotted a black silhouette fleeing into the distance.

“Where are you running?!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s expression chilled as he immediately pursued.

Swooshswooshswoos.h.!.+

With w.a.n.g Chong’s cultivation, it took only a few moments for him to get only a few feet from this person.

As if knowing that he couldn’t escape, the veiled figure turned around, but bizarrely, his eyes coldly flashed as his lips curved into a smile, the satisfied smile of having a scheme succeed.

Boom!

The veiled figure thrust out his sword, going on the offensive against w.a.n.g Chong.

Whoos.h.!.+ Four other veiled figures emerged from their hiding spots and rushed at w.a.n.g Chong.

The five of them all had swords, and they were nimble and swift, their sword technique sinister and deadly.

“Seeking death!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s face was cold. He had been through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and cared little about battles like these. He was far more concerned about where these people had come from.

Anyone who could break through the defenses he had laid down was no ordinary individual.

Bang!

w.a.n.g Chong waved his palm, but in the next moment, something unexpected happened. w.a.n.g Chong had originally been planning to capture them, so he had restrained himself to heavily injuring them.

But w.a.n.g Chong had failed to control his strength, and when they were still a few feet away from w.a.n.g Chong, those veiled men exploded into gore.

Their blood splattered all over w.a.n.g Chong’s body and face.

w.a.n.g Chong felt the world turning crimson, as if it had been painted all over with thick blood. He was struck dumb.

Even more frightening was that when the blood splashed onto his body, his body began to s.h.i.+ver, his nose to twitch. The concentrated scent of blood made the Berserker Syndrome in his body once more begin to rage.

w.a.n.g Chong raised his head and saw that even the sun had turned red, and it was even resonating with the madness in his body.

Buzz!

As that b.l.o.o.d.y light poured down, the various wars that w.a.n.g Chong had partic.i.p.ated in began to emerge in his mind.

Visions of the h.e.l.lish battlefields from these wars flashed through his mind.
