"Courting death!" Sea God Tang San's face turned extremely cold. He let out a cold snort, but in the face of Zhu Ziyang's provocative actions, aside from verbal retorts, he made no move.
"Heh! As expected!" Seeing Sea God's reaction, Zhu Ziyang instantly confirmed his thoughts, his attitude growing even more unrestrained. He said, "So even the great Sea God has something to fear, tsk tsk tsk!"
"Hmph!" Sea God Tang San's expression was exceedingly ugly. If he weren't worried that taking action would alert the gods of the God Realm and expose his unauthorised descent to the lower world, he would have long since struck Zhu Ziyang down, letting him know why it was Tang San who ascended to the God Realm and not Qian Renxue or the Bibi Dong mother-daughter pair!
Tang San had no intention of lingering in the lower world. He knew that the moment Zhu Ziyang appeared, his goal of preventing the continent's unification had become impossible. There was no need to entangle further. Every extra minute in the lower world increased the risk of exposure by one point. Thus, he immediately adopted a different demeanour—one of a caring elder guiding a junior. He said, "Starting wars lightly, going against the tide, defying the will of the people—young man, take care of yourself!"
"Hahaha!" Zhu Ziyang was amused by Tang San's words and let out a mocking laugh without hesitation. "You sure know how to spout grand, empty words. What 'starting wars lightly' or 'going against the tide'? It's clear you just don't want to see the Douluo Continent unified. After all, a unified Douluo Continent isn't as easy to harvest faith from as a divided one, is it?"
"Heh." Seeing his thoughts exposed, Tang San gave a cold laugh. His figure flickered, his gaze passing over the crowd to land on Huo Yuhao. His brows furrowed slightly, but then he looked further back at Tang Wutong. He said, "Wutong, come home with Daddy!"
Under the stunned gazes of everyone, Tang Wutong ran out from the crowd. She glanced at Huo Yuhao with some reluctance, but her movements didn't stop as she flew toward Tang San.
Zhu Ziyang was somewhat surprised. He truly hadn't expected that this Tang Wutong was actually Tang San's daughter. So that meant Wang Dong'er was Tang San's daughter, too? Tsk tsk, how ruthless!
"Huo Yuhao, if you want to be with Wutong, then help the Star Luo Empire restore its kingdom. After all, you are also a descendant of Mubai." Tang San looked at Huo Yuhao with a lofty, condescending tone, as if bestowing a favour.
Hearing Tang San's words, Huo Yuhao's face couldn't have looked worse—it was as if he'd eaten rat droppings. Of the four sentences Tang San spoke, three made him feel utterly disgusted, with an urge to spit at him.
What did he mean by "want to be with Tang Wutong"? The one he liked was Xiao Xiao, and at worst, it was Wang Dong'er—not this stitched-together monster Tang Wutong! And what was this about him being a descendant of Mubai? Dai Mubai? Good heavens, his surname was Huo—what did that have to do with the Dai family? Even if there was a connection, it would only be one of hatred!
Huo Yuhao was speechless, while Tang San took in Huo Yuhao's reaction completely. A cold fury flashed in his eyes. He couldn't deal with Zhu Ziyang, but could he not handle a mere kid who hadn't even become a god? Just wait—once you reach the God Realm, you'll have it coming!
Tang San was very confident in Tang Wutong's allure. She was his daughter, after all, and she combined all the qualities Huo Yuhao liked. He didn't believe Huo Yuhao could resist Tang Wutong's temptation.
"I say, threatening my junior brother in front of me and trying to take away a student of our Shrek Academy—Sea God, you're not that much of a coward, are you?" Zhu Ziyang, who had been watching the spectacle for a while, spoke up. He absolutely could not let Tang San take Tang Wutong away. Are you kidding? Xiao Xiao's soul was still inside Tang Wutong's body. If she went to the God Realm, wouldn't Xiao Xiao's soul be completely refined by Tang Wutong? That was absolutely unacceptable.
With that, Zhu Ziyang acted. He extended the Purifying World Life-Reaping Scythe in his hand, manifesting a white energy chain that instantly wrapped around Tang Wutong. With a strong pull backwards, he dragged Tang Wutong to his side. To prevent her from causing trouble, he delivered a hand chop, knocking her unconscious.
Tang San was furious at Zhu Ziyang's actions. A smile actually appeared on his face—clearly, he was so angry that he laughed in rage. He said, "Good, good, very good."
A blue-gold trident appeared in his hand. Clearly, he was prepared to fight Zhu Ziyang. At this point, he no longer worried about his descent to the lower world being exposed, because Zhu Ziyang had given him an excuse: Tang Wutong. A lower world denizen bullying his daughter—as a father seeking justice for his daughter, even if descending violated God Realm laws, it was understandable, wasn't it?
After all, when Xiao Qi descended back then, all the God Kings of the God Realm had agreed! The more Tang San thought about it, the happier he became. The light of the Sea God Trident in his hand grew increasingly commanding. He planned to take this opportunity to directly eliminate Zhu Ziyang. Otherwise, Zhu Ziyang's existence was like a thorn in his throat, extremely uncomfortable!
Tang San was very confident in his strength. No matter what, he was a chosen one who held dual god positions. Even if Zhu Ziyang was the God of Death with a God King position, his Shura God was also a God King! Moreover, he had become a god ten thousand years earlier than Zhu Ziyang, so experience was on his side. This would be a crushing battle!
After eliminating the heretic Zhu Ziyang, he would conveniently deal with that new Fire God too, to avoid any impact on his relationship with Ma Hongjun once they reached the God Realm. Yes, that's the plan! With this thought, Tang San no longer hid his aura. Divine might instantly permeate the heavens and earth, making everyone on and below the city walls feel their bodies grow heavy, unable to move.
Zhu Ziyang was already on high alert, his eyes sharp, ready at any moment to battle Tang San and pull this Sea God—who had dominated the Douluo Continent for ten thousand years—down from the altar of Douluo in the most undignified way!
Both sides were prepared, and war was on the verge of breaking out. But the battle ended before it even began.
Three meteors flew in from the direction of the Sun Moon Empire, landing directly in the air behind Zhu Ziyang amid the Sun Moon army. The meteors' glow faded, revealing three women of peerless beauty. Behind each of them shimmered ten soul rings—they were all gods who had stepped into the divine level!
They were naturally Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, and Qian Lingyi.
Seeing the three women appear, the Sun Moon army immediately erupted in cheers, while the Star Luo city walls fell into a deathly silence of despair. Sea God Tang San's face became extremely unsightly. Ma Xiaotao's appearance was unexpected, but within his calculations, Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi truly broke his composure, especially Qian Lingyi, with her dense holy aura and golden Angelic God attire.
"Why are you here?" Zhu Ziyang was also somewhat surprised and asked.
"We sensed divine power fluctuations in Mingdu and guessed you might need our help, so we came," Jiang Nannan said, her eyes sizing up the Sea God Tang San opposite them as if observing a rare, endangered species.
"I see. Perfect, then let's all get acquainted with Sea God," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. "I'm sure Sea God is very willing."
"Oh yes, yes! I've long admired Sea God!" Qian Lingyi, who had successfully inherited the Angel God position and restored it to a First-Class God, said with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. As the successor to the Angel God, calling them acquaintances across generations wasn't too much, right? Acquaintances as generational enemies.
"I'd love to test the level of the soul of the original Shrek Seven Monsters!" Ma Xiaotao cracked her knuckles, looking eager to fight.
"Hmph…" With a cold snort and a flash of blue-gold divine light, Sea God vanished. Clearly, facing the impending siege by Zhu Ziyang and the three others, Sea God Tang San wisely chose to avoid their edge. He abandoned even his own daughter and directly retreated to the God Realm—a truly exemplary father.
"Yay!" Seeing Sea God retreat, the Sun Moon army erupted in enthusiastic cheers, everyone shouting Zhu Ziyang's name in unison: "Jing Tian! Jing Tian! Jing Tian!"
In stark contrast to the Sun Moon army's jubilant scene, the already despairing and silent atmosphere on Star Luo's city walls grew even colder. Everyone's hearts were filled with helpless despair. The enemy had four gods! At this point, their only choice was likely to surrender.
"Your Highness, it's over." At this moment, Zhu Ziyang's voice came from the sky, drawing Xu Jiujiu's gaze upward. Zhu Ziyang stood high above, like a heavenly god—no, he was a heavenly god. "For the sake of our friendship, Shrek Academy will still reserve a place for the Star Crown Martial Soul."
"Really?" A glimmer of light finally appeared in Xu Jiujiu's ashen heart. She recalled another matter Zhu Ziyang had discussed with her last time they met. The Star Crown Martial Soul, as a long-inherited support-type martial soul, Shrek Academy was willing to take in the defeated Star Crown sect members. Back then, she had been furious, but she hadn't expected it to become reality so soon. Heh, should she laugh? At least the Star Crown sect hadn't been destroyed in her generation. As for the Star Luo Empire, let it fade with the wind.
In the fourth year and tenth month of the Moon God Empress, Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei walked out of Star Luo City and surrendered to the empire's marshal, Duke Zhen Guo Xu Qianxuan. The Star Luo Empire was destroyed, and the Douluo Continent was thus unified.
On the first day of the first month of the fifth year of the Moon God Empress, Her Majesty amended the calendar, changed the nation's name to Ming, historically known as the Great Ming Empire, with this day marking the first year of the empire.
—
In the second year after the continent's unification, Shrek Academy, Tian Yuan Pavilion.
"Senior Brother." Twenty-three-year-old Huo Yuhao found twenty-six-year-old Zhu Ziyang, his face full of excitement as he called out.
"Yuhao, congratulations!" Zhu Ziyang saw Huo Yuhao and smiled. "God of Emotions Huo Yuhao, not bad. Looks like the academy's divine spirit plaza will gain another new statue!"
"Hehe." Huo Yuhao grinned foolishly. "It's all thanks to Senior Brother's help; otherwise, I definitely couldn't have inherited the god position smoothly."
What Huo Yuhao referred to was when he inherited his god position. Due to the special nature of the God of Emotions, he needed an item or ability capable of bearing the power of seven emotions. At the time, Huo Yuhao only had three major spirit souls, completely unable to bear the seven emotional powers. It was Zhu Ziyang who told him he could let his second martial soul's spirit souls bear the divine power, allowing him to successfully inherit the god position.
"I was just in the right place at the right time. It's mainly because you worked hard," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. Then he took out a grey orb and handed it to Huo Yuhao. "Here, Yuhao, what do you feel from this orb?"
"This…" Huo Yuhao looked at the orb in Zhu Ziyang's hand with surprise and doubt. He could sense the mysterious energy emanating from it and realised it might be a god position. What made his heart race was that his own god position was trembling, as if in excitement or worship, causing his heartbeat to quicken. He looked at Zhu Ziyang in confusion and asked, "Senior Brother, what is this? Why do I feel an urge to devour it?"
"This is the Rakshasa God position!" Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Zhu Ziyang felt even more assured of his idea and said.
"The Rakshasa God position!" Huo Yuhao couldn't help but gasp. He naturally knew of the Rakshasa God, which was why he was so shocked. He said, "Senior Brother, isn't the Rakshasa God evil? Why is His god position in your hands?"
"Heh, is the Rakshasa God really an evil god?" Zhu Ziyang neither confirmed nor denied Huo Yuhao's words, smiled, and said, "Let me tell you a story!"
Then, Zhu Ziyang told Huo Yuhao the full origins of Shura and Rakshasa, their love-hate entanglements, everything in detail. After listening, Huo Yuhao felt his horizons broaden, his heart deeply shocked.
"Senior Brother, you mean this Rakshasa God is actually a God King on par with the Shura God, and a God King who controls emotional power!" Huo Yuhao said. He instantly understood why Zhu Ziyang had brought out the Rakshasa God position, a touch of emotion on his face. "Senior Brother, are you planning to give this Rakshasa God position to me?"
"Exactly!" Zhu Ziyang nodded and said, "After ascending to the God Realm, you'll inevitably face Sea God's harassment. With your First-Class God position, you're destined to be unable to resist Tang San, who holds the Shura God position. So, you need this Rakshasa God position!
However, the current Rakshasa God position only has Second-Class God status. To restore it to God King level, it requires a massive amount of emotional origin source, and you just happen to possess that emotional origin source. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I…" Huo Yuhao was stunned. He understood Zhu Ziyang's words: his God of Emotions position could restore the Rakshasa God position to God King level. Though the cost was high—sacrificing a First-Class God position—the reward was equally great: gaining a God King position. The risks were naturally enormous. But Huo Yuhao thought of the various painful emotions emanating from Tang Wutong over the past year. He no longer hesitated. He raised his head, determination in his eyes, and said, "Senior Brother, I'm willing to try!"
"Good, I'll guard you!" Huo Yuhao's answer was within Zhu Ziyang's expectations. He immediately said, "Follow me!"
Zhu Ziyang placed his hand on Huo Yuhao's shoulder. With a thought, the two vanished.
—
Three months later, on a certain day, the God Realm high above the endless heavens suddenly erupted with a mysterious law fluctuation. This fluctuation was identical to the one when the Death God returned. This time, the two God Kings guarding the God Realm's central hub were the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction. As the oldest existences in the current God Realm, they immediately understood what was happening.
"Xiao Zi, did you feel it?" the Goddess of Life said, her eyes full of joy.
"Yes!" The God of Destruction's bright eyes were revealed under his hood. He said, "The emotional origin source is repairing itself, and it's complete!"
"Great, great!" the Goddess of Life cheered. "This way, our power increases by two points. A complete Shura and a complete Rakshasa—truly wonderful!"
"Let's hope so!" Listening to his wife's cheers, a different thought flashed through the God of Destruction's mind. He felt things weren't that simple. The Rakshasa God position had fallen to the Douluo Continent, and the newborn Death God was also on the Douluo Continent. If there was no connection between the two, he wouldn't believe it. So, Sea God's recent descent to the lower world and return with a dark face was related to this?
At the same moment, on the Douluo Continent, Zhu Ziyang and Huo Yuhao appeared in Tian Yuan Pavilion, both their faces filled with excitement and joy.
"Yuhao, congratulations on becoming the true God of Emotions!" Zhu Ziyang said first.
"Yes, yes! Senior Brother, thank you so much!" Huo Yuhao's face was full of gratitude as he spoke to Zhu Ziyang.
"Alright, no need to be so formal," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, patting Huo Yuhao's shoulder. "Go do what you want to do now. With your current power, you should be able to do these things easily! When you're ready to leave the Douluo Continent, remember to tell me!"
"Yes!" Huo Yuhao, with an excited heart, left with a silly grin.
"Rakshasa God King, not bad," Zhu Ziyang said thoughtfully, smiling as he watched Huo Yuhao's departing back. "I wonder how you'll choose—keep the Sea God position or the Shura God position? If you keep the Shura God position, can you really pass the god position's spiritual trial? Tsk tsk, truly curious!"

In the second year of the empire, Her Majesty issued a decree, appointing Prince Zhu Yuhuang as Crown Prince and Princess Zhu Yuyue as Moon God Princess.
For this decree, the empire from top to bottom was filled with supportive cheers. No one cared that the future imperial family would change from the Xu family to the Zhu family—or rather, everyone was happy to see it. After all, everyone knew that His Highness the Crown Prince and Her Highness the Moon God Princess were the children of Her Majesty and the Death God Crown, true divine descendants.
This meant that the future imperial family would become true god descendants, protected by gods, and the empire's reign would inevitably be more stable. For those with vested interests, this was a joyous event. For ordinary people, a stable empire was also worth celebrating.
Thus, from top to bottom, there were no opposing voices.
This year, Zhu Yuhuang and Zhu Yuyue were six years old. After awakening their martial souls, Zhang Lexuan immediately appointed them as Crown Prince and Moon God Princess. The position of Crown Prince naturally went without saying—the future Great Ming Emperor. As for the title Moon God Princess, it was specially created by Zhang Lexuan for her daughter, showing her love for her. After all, the title "Moon God" held special meaning in the current Great Ming Empire.
The two little ones didn't care about their change in status. What they cared about was that their martial souls were different, which made them sad for a long time.
Brother Zhu Yuhuang's martial soul was the Heavenly Frost Holy Dragon, with innate full soul power plus Zhu Ziyang's divine blessing, so his innate soul power level was twenty, and ultimate ice.
Sister Zhu Yuyue had twin martial souls: the Moon martial soul and the Purifying World Golden Scythe martial soul, with innate full soul power plus Jiang Nannan's divine blessing, so also innate soul power level twenty, and ultimate light.
It was foreseeable that these two little ones would inevitably be prodigies, stunning an era in the future. Whether they could surpass their parents would depend on their respective fortunes.
—
In the third year of the empire, in the Mingdu Imperial Palace, Zhu Ziyang saw off Huo Yuhao.
"Senior Brother, see you in the God Realm!" Huo Yuhao extended his fist to Zhu Ziyang, saying solemnly.
"See you in the God Realm!" Zhu Ziyang also extended his fist, bumping it with Huo Yuhao's.
"Senior Brother, farewell!" By Huo Yuhao's side, one on the left and one on the right, stood two women—none other than Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong'er.
After becoming the Rakshasa God, Huo Yuhao's first action was to separate Xiao Xiao's soul from Tang Wutong's soul and successfully revive her. Without Xiao Xiao's soul, Tang Wutong's soul instantly shattered. Huo Yuhao removed the Sea God's divine power from these soul fragments, found Wang Dong'er's soul among them, and revived Wang Dong'er.
After Wang Dong'er was revived, all her memories surged from the depths of her soul, including her memories as Xiao Qi, as Wang Dong'er, and as Tang Wutong. She nearly broke down. If Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao hadn't stabilised her emotions in time, her soul might have shattered again.
For Wang Dong'er—or rather, Tang Wutong—after experiencing soul cutting, soul stitching, and soul shattering, she now had only one thought: it hurt, it hurt too much!
This trip to the God Realm would surely be a warm scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety, a grand display of filial piety. After all, not long ago, Wang Dong'er had received a sacrifice from her second uncle.
Unfortunately, Zhu Ziyang wouldn't get to see it. He still had ninety years left in the lower world and wasn't in a hurry to leave the Douluo Continent so early. So, best wishes to Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er for success!
—
In the fifth year of the empire, Her Majesty issued a decree to relocate the capital. The original Sun Moon Empire capital, Mingdu, would become the secondary capital, and the Great Ming Empire's new capital, Sun Moon City, would become the new centre of the Douluo Continent in dual senses.
After the continent's unification, Zhang Lexuan began planning the construction of a new capital and the relocation. The site for the empire's new capital, Sun Moon City, was chosen at the continent's centre, forming a triangle with Shrek City and the Star Dou Great Forest.
Also in this year, His Majesty issued a decree to establish the Douluo Hall and the Worship Hall, responsible for managing all soul master affairs across the land and the titles of Titled Douluo level. The first hall master of both the Douluo Hall and Worship Hall was naturally Zhu Ziyang, and subsequent hall masters would be the empire's emperor and the empire's strongest.
Still in this year, the Eternal Spirit Pagoda was established by the empire as an official institution and organisation, beginning to promote the spirit soul method across the continent while further researching the many possibilities of spirit souls.
At the same time, Beast God Di Tian formally established the Myriad Beast Hall, aimed at protecting all soul beast races and cooperating with the Eternal Spirit Pagoda's spirit soul promotion efforts.
Starting from this year, although the empire did not prohibit soul masters from hunting soul rings, the number of soul masters hunting soul rings inevitably decreased. This was because the main soul beast gathering areas on the continent were almost all controlled by the Myriad Beast Hall. Aside from some artificially bred soul beast forests and the ocean, other places were very unsafe.
It's worth mentioning that the position of Eternal Spirit Pagoda Master would no longer be concurrently held by Shrek Academy's Tian Yuan Pavilion Master but would be nominated by Shrek Academy, Myriad Beast Hall, and the Worship Hall, appointed by the emperor. Additionally, two vice pagoda masters were added, forming a 2-1-1 structure with the empire, Shrek Academy, and Myriad Beast Hall.
The purpose of this was clearly aimed at Shrek Academy, but the one who proposed this series of measures was none other than Tian Yuan Pavilion Master Zhu Ziyang.
The reason was entirely that when Zhu Ziyang designed the Eternal Spirit Pagoda's structure, he hadn't anticipated that the future emperor of emperor would become his son and descendants.
He was human too; planning for his descendants was perfectly understandable.
However, although Shrek Academy lost some interest in the Eternal Spirit Pagoda, it gained the empire's educational rights.
Shrek Academy's Cloud Heaven Plan and Tian Yuan Academy Plan were accepted and promoted by the empire. Shrek Academy would gain educational rights and priority recruitment for all primary soul master academies across the continent. In other words, all primary soul master academies on the continent effectively became affiliated with Shrek Academy, and the empire would provide substantial annual education funding.
As a trade-off, aside from Anyang City's Tian Yuan Academy, Tian Yuan Academies in other regions needed to revert to their original names, and all Shrek Academy teachers would become imperial officials. The academy dean's appointment needed to be reported to the empire's emperor, establishing a nominal superior-subordinate relationship.
The empire would not allow a de facto state within a state within its borders. On this point, Shrek Academy's leadership had no objections.
The martial soul awakening rights of Tian Yuan Academy were also revoked, but the empire reformed the martial soul awakening system.
Originally, the Sun Moon Empire's martial soul awakenings were handled by the specially established Martial Soul Department. Now, they were managed by local primary soul master academies, with the start of the school year being the time for martial soul awakenings.
This meant the empire was effectively sharing martial soul awakening rights with Shrek Academy—a compromise. In response, Shrek Academy needed to assist the empire in establishing primary soul master academies in all town-level regions across the continent and provide faculty.
Through this series of measures, although Shrek Academy lost its former transcendent status, it truly became the holy land of martial soul education on the continent.
As for the former Martial Soul Department, it was expanded and became the Martial Soul Hall, which recorded all martial souls and soul beast data across the land, transforming from a governmental institution to a cultural and historical one.
—
In the seventh year of the empire, Shrek Academy, Tian Yuan Island.
Zhu Ziyang, who was instructing Zhu Yuhuang and Zhu Yuyue in cultivation, suddenly looked up sharply. The originally clear sky abruptly darkened, and then a blue meteor streaked diagonally from the starry sky, carrying vast divine power, crashing into the vast Douluo Sea.
"Daddy, what's wrong? Why did the sky suddenly turn dark?" Zhu Yuyue tugged at Zhu Ziyang's sleeve, asking in confusion.
"It's nothing; it'll clear up soon," Zhu Ziyang said, patting his daughter's head in comfort.
As expected, after the blue meteor vanished, the sky became clear again.
For this brief anomaly, the people on the continent didn't pay much attention. In an era where gods appeared in the world, what did a little anomaly count for?
But Zhu Ziyang clearly knew what was hidden behind this anomaly and the true nature of that blue meteor.
"Ziyang, did you see it?" Ma Xiaotao was the first to appear by Zhu Ziyang's side, followed by Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi. All three women looked grave.
"Alright, no need to be nervous," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile to comfort them. "This is a good thing. It means Yuhao and the others are at least in the upper hand."
"Sigh! I really want to go up and see right now!" Ma Xiaotao sighed with regret.
"See how Sea God is forced to abolish his own god position? I want to see that too."
—
In the ninety-first year of the empire.
Zhu Ziyang decided to leave the Douluo Continent and ascend to the God Realm.
He stood at the highest point in the sky, with Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, Qian Lingyi, Zhang Lexuan, and Di Wuhuan'er—five women—by his side. His gaze reluctantly looked down at the palm-sized Douluo Continent below, then up at the unforeseeable deep space.
He removed the emerald jade bracelet that had accompanied him for nearly a hundred years. It was a gift from his mother, Liang Ying. Unfortunately, his parents were unwilling to follow him to the God Realm; otherwise, he wouldn't feel such reluctance.
The emotions in his eyes gradually faded. He weighed the bracelet and murmured, "Old friend, see you if fate allows!"
With those words, Zhu Ziyang swung his arm fiercely. Under the puzzled gazes of the five women, he threw the bracelet into the endless deep space.
"Brother, what are you…" Jiang Nannan asked in confusion.
"Just bidding farewell to an old friend," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile.
An old friend—yes, the library that had accompanied Zhu Ziyang for nearly a hundred years was indeed an old friend.
Now that he was leaving the Douluo Continent, this library naturally returned to its original owner—or awaited the next fated person.
"Let's go!" Zhu Ziyang banished the melancholy in his heart, turned around, and said with a heroic spirit.
Then, see you in the God Realm!
