“Mother!”
As he was pondering, he heard a familiar voice. Coming to his senses, he spotted a familiar figure skipping past him like a rabbit and into the inner residence.
She passed by Wang Chong without a glance, completely ignoring him.
Little Sister! Wang Chong silently cried out.
This was truly his little sister, as simple-minded as ever.
Wang Chong didn’t alarm anyone. After a moment of thought, he also made his way into the inner residence.
Wang Chong first went to his own study.
The study had a simple and ancient decor, and everything was arranged in the same way he had left it.
A sparrow occupying the turtledove’s nest!
This was Wang Chong’s current situation.
No one in the capital recognized Wang Chong, but the memory of the King of Foreign Lands still existed in their minds. It was just that this person wasn’t him.
Most bizarrely, although the capital was in the middle of preparing for the wedding between ‘Wang Chong’ and Xu Qiqin, implying that the King of Foreign Lands was in the capital, whether it was through conversation or memory searching, Wang Chong was unable to find anyone who knew where the King of Foreign Lands actually was.
Even though the servants of the Wang Family were constantly chattering about ‘Wang Chong’, when Wang Chong disguised himself and asked the servants about that man’s appearance, they all became clueless, incapable of describing him.
It was like everyone was remembering a fictional character.
But the wedding between the ‘King of Foreign Lands’ and the lady of the Xu Clan was taking place in ten days. When the time came, that ‘King of Foreign Lands’ would have to show himself.
The one who untied the bell would have to tie the bell back. Wang Chong was confident that this place, as the heart of everything, was where he could find the answer.
There was no one around, and as Wang Chong investigated, he found that though the study had not changed in general, some of the small details had changed.
“It shouldn’t just be a simply made-up person!”
Wang Chong quickly took a weasel bristle brush from the brush stand.
Wang Chong’s calligraphy had never been very pretty; the Song of Purity and Peace he had gifted to Consort Taizhen all the way at the beginning had been twisted and crooked, repulsive to behold. Thus, Wang Chong had constantly been practicing his calligraphy.
Wang Chong favored the weasel bristle brush, but not this one.
Wang Chong’s brush had been about as thick as a pinkie finger, and Li Heng had specifically chosen it from the palace collection as a gift for him. The surface of the brush had been cinnabar red, so Wang Chong had called it the ‘cinnabar brush’. But the weasel bristle brush on the stand was a grayish brown.
“The inkstone has also been used. At least three inches have been shaved off. They must have written some calligraphy here.”
Wang Chong’s eyes closed as he began to reconstruct what had happened here.
While he was away in Sindhu, some ‘guest’ had undoubtedly paid a visit to his study. They had not merely observed, but had even used his inkstone. And also…
Wang Chong suddenly sat himself in the armchair behind his desk, his arms resting themselves on the armrests. He slightly leaned back and began to reexamine the study.
At that moment, Wang Chong’s expression and demeanor transformed into those of someone else entirely.
Hisss!
A few moments later, Wang Chong opened his eyes.
At this time, he was Wang Chong once more!
At this moment, he was certain that someone had come here with the relaxed demeanor of an owner. He had carefully examined this place, attempting to understand him through the study.
Wang Chong’s eyes turned sharp and vicious.
“Heaven?”
He couldn’t confirm it, but he was certain that this was all linked to the Celestial God Organization.
Creeeak!
At this moment, the door was pushed open. Wang Chong’s heart thumped as he turned to look, at the same time hearing the shaking of a pearl hairpin and sensing a familiar energy.
A middle-aged beauty in a silk gown, her face elegant and refined, walked in from outside.
“Mo…”
Wang Chong’s eyebrows rose as his mouth opened. The word ‘mother’ was about to leave his mouth when he suddenly stopped. Wang Chong understood that he had changed his appearance and made himself into a servant of the estate, that he was not ‘Wang Chong’.
In truth, even if he had his original face, his mother was not guaranteed to recognize him.
“You’re–!”
As Madam Wang walked in and saw someone in the chair, her face froze. She had clearly not expected anyone to be inside.
“Madam!”
Wang Chong hastily stood up and bowed.
“This one is a new servant of the estate who was ordered to come here and tidy His Highness’s study!”
“So that’s how it was.”
Madam Wang smiled and did not question him.
The households of great clans had strict hierarchies, but the Wang Family Residence was not as strict. In many aspects, it was very accommodating. This was why many maids and servants liked the Wang Clan.
“Madam, please sit.”
Wang Chong quickly stepped aside. Though he wanted to talk with his mother, he knew that this wasn’t the time.
Madam Wang didn’t notice anything suspicious. She sat herself in the armchair, an arm propping on the armrest as her brow furrowed.
“Is there something on Madam’s mind?” Wang Chong suddenly said.
This was the first time he had seen his mother so worried.
“It’s nothing.”
Madam Wang smiled and waved her hand, clearly unwilling to speak about it.
“If you have some difficulty, perhaps this lowly one could help you take care of it,” Wang Chong softly said.
He had rarely seen his mother so worried, and her reluctance only made him want to know even more.
“It’s nothing. It’s going to be the wedding between Chong-er and Lady Xu soon, but for some reason, I feel like something’s wrong.”
As Madam Wang spoke, her gaze dropped. Rather than to this servant, she was more speaking to herself.
Buzz!
Madam Wang was just making an offhand comment, but Wang Chong felt his heart shudder.
It felt like he had been completely forgotten upon his return to the capital. This was the first time someone had noticed anything strange.

“What is Madam discomforted by?” Wang Chong asked, choosing to move cautiously.
“I’m not sure. I just feel that something isn’t right, like I’ve lost something very important to me.”
Madam Wang placed a hand on her chest as she spoke. But halfway through, she couldn’t help but laugh.
“Why am I telling you this? He’s already so grown up and about to have his own family, and he’s even marrying the lady of the Xu Clan. This will bring honor to our family, and I should be happy.”
As Madam Wang said this, her brow slightly relaxed, but her concern and unease remained.
“You know, it’s strange.”
As Madam Wang spoke, she looked at Wang Chong.
“I’ve never mentioned this to anyone, not even Fu-er or Bei-er, so why did I bring it up in front of you? For some reason, I feel some intimacy with you, as if… as if you’re Chong-er!”
As Madam Wang blurted out these words, she was stunned by what she was saying.
Her brow quickly furrowed even deeper, as she had come across some befuddling riddle.
Meanwhile, Wang Chong’s heart was trembling.
Mother!
Wang Chong’s hear
t surged with indescribable warmth.
The capital had experienced a massive shift, and everything seemed to be under the control of some invisible hand that had wiped away everyone’s memories. Wang Chong had tried with his servants, maids, subordinates, and even the common folk of the capital, but none of them had remembered him.
This was the first time someone had recognized him.
His mother didn’t know martial arts and had Psychic Energy far weaker than ordinary martial artists, but even though her memories had been wiped, she still remembered him.
Mother…
Wang Chong’s lips trembled as he almost blurted out this word.
But at this moment, a voice exploded in the minds of Wang Chong and Madam Wang.
“Haha, human emotions! Even when you sensed that something was wrong, you still took the risk of seeking out your mother.”
Madam Wang was confused as to what was going on, but Wang Chong instantly paled.
“Heaven!”
Wang Chong’s face turned grim.
He was no stranger to this energy. It was none other than the one who had pulled him into that cruel world where his Berserker Syndrome had flared up.
Wang Chong had not imagined that Heaven would suddenly appear.
Buzz!
A silver barrier emerged and covered his mother. At the same time, Wang Chong quickly stood in front of his mother.
Wang Chong looked up, and at a certain point deep in spacetime, Wang Chong sensed a ripple of energy.
The moment that powerful ripple of energy appeared, an enormous barrier covered the Wang Family Residence.
Heaven had been waiting this whole time!
He knew that Wang Chong would return to the Wang Family Residence, and he knew that Wang Chong would seek out his mother, so he had set up a trap!
Wang Chong felt an intense danger.
That familiar voice spoke again, but the words took him by surprise. “Hahaha, you’re wrong. I am not Heaven.
“Heaven is far more capable than I am.”
The voice was confident and relaxed, but the words made Wang Chong’s eyes twitch and his ears buzz.
Not Heaven?
Someone with such powerful Psychic Energy, enough to pull him into an illusion without being noticed, wasn’t Heaven?!
He could tell that this person had much more Psychic Energy than him. Besides Heaven, who else could be this powerful?
“Hahah, while you might not have met me before, you shouldn’t be unfamiliar with my name.
“Let me introduce myself. This one is Essence Supreme. For various reasons, I am different from ordinary humans and from the other Supremes. You might be more familiar with various avatars that walk the earth, but in essence, I am just a mental body.
“Right, I am the one that is able to revive any Supreme so long as their soul remains.”
The voice heartily laughed as they introduced themselves.
Wang Chong instantly scowled.
Wang Chong knew of the name, but in his heart, Wang Chong thought that Essence Supreme would essentially be like the others.
Wang Chong had also seen the form of Essence Supreme in the memories of the men in black, but it seemed that he had deeply underestimated this Essence Supreme who had always remained in the background.
He had been the architect behind the reincarnation system of the Celestial God Organization, so the man himself had to be even more troublesome than he had imagined.
“Haha, Wang Chong, you’ve truly drawn my curiosity. You are the first person to have ruined our Purification plan, and you even killed Genesis Supreme.
“But it is time for it all to end.”
Immense waves of Psychic Energy slammed into Wang Chong’s mind.
Essence Supreme softly chuckled, seemingly assured and confident in their control of the situation.
Wang Chong said nothing, his expression grave as his entire body tensed, ready to attack at any time.
Essence Supreme was far too calm, seemingly assured that they could kill him, that he had no hope of escaping.
Wang Chong had an extremely bad feeling.
“Right, didn’t you want to see Heaven? As a farewell gift, I will let you meet him.
“Great One, the Child of Destruction has appeared!”
Essence Supreme softly chuckled as they spoke into the depths of spacetime, seemingly requesting the presence of an even higher existence.
Essence Supreme’s voice was brimming with respect, like a subject paying respects to their sovereign.
A few moments later, Wang Chong felt the void above him shatter, and an enormous energy as brilliant as the rising sun appeared above the Wang Family Residence, exuding boundless flames.
As that energy appeared, a cold and majestic voice rang out. “Wang Chong, I have been looking for you for some time. It is time for everything to end.”
Moreover, in that dazzling and all-encompassing light, Wang Chong sensed two familiar energies.
Doomsday Insignias!
Wang Chong suddenly understood.
Heaven had obtained Origin Supreme’s Doomsday Insignia, and with the one from the Origin Immortal Palace, he now had two. While this wasn’t enough to release the seals around him, Heaven could still use more power than before.
This also meant that the avatar Heaven had created would also be stronger.
Rumble!
As the voice exploded, a torrent of destructive energy gushed down from the heavens.
Crimson flames as viscous as water engulfed the Wang Family Residence, and it seemed like the end of days had come.
Heaven’s avatar had unleashed a destructive attack after just a few words.
The Wang Family Residence was on the verge of annihilation, a tiny raft in the middle of a storm.
Crisis!
An intense sense of danger!
This was the first time Wang Chong was directly taking an attack from Heaven.
He was now at the peak of the Grotto Heaven realm and had an understanding of spacetime that far surpassed the vast majority of experts. Even the Supremes could not compare to Wang Chong in some aspects.
But when facing Heaven’s terrifying attack, Wang Chong realized just how vast the chasm was.
The mastery of spacetime, martial arts, and laws that Heaven had displayed in this one attack far surpassed Wang Chong.
Heaven’s actual body was still sealed, but the experience and skills built up over countless eons would not be weakened just because he was sealed.
Wang Chong could tell that an unbelievable number of laws fused with spacetime energy had been merged into the flames.
Piercing screams came from various parts of the estate. All of them could sense the destructive energy coming from above, and a maid looked up with fearful eyes.
This attack exerted an immense pressure even before it made impact. At this moment, all of the lives in the residence depended on Wang Chong.
“Now is the moment!”
Life hung by a single thread, and as Heaven attacked, Wang Chong took action.
With an explosion of thunder and a howl of wind, a dark golden halo erupted from beneath Wang Chong’s feet.
This wasn’t Wang Chong’s first time using a Halo of Spacetime, but this one was different from all the others.
In less time than it took to blink, the Halo of Spacetime became two, two became four, four became eight… By the end, tens of thousands of Halos of Spacetime had appeared around the Wang Family Residence.
Each maid and servant had a Halo of Spacetime under their feet, and once all this was done, with a resounding metallic clatter, an enormous Halo of Spacetime covered the entire estate!
Rumble!
Wang Chong’s eyes gleamed with a harsh light. As his body erupted with power, all members of the Wang family disappeared together with the estate.
Behind Wang Chong’s head, an enormous, gleaming halo appeared.
At that moment, Wang Chong had taken the entire estate and
all the people within it into the halo divine tool.
The lives of the entire Wang Family were on the line, and he could not make any mistakes.
“Come on! Let’s fight!” Wang Chong angrily bellowed to the heavens.

Rumble! The halo behind Wang Chong’s head instantly grew several times larger as Stellar Energy poured into it, growing to the size of the entire Wang Family Residence.
Amidst the dazzling red light, clang! A golden sword that was around one hundred feet long emerged.
The Sword of God!
The halo divine tool’s powerful offensive form, stimulated by Wang Chong’s Stellar Energy, had finally emerged.
However, bolstered by Wang Chong’s immense Stellar Energy, the Sword of God was far more powerful and intimidating than at any time before.
Not even when Genesis Supreme had used the Sword of God had it been this powerful.
In the intervening time, Wang Chong had been constantly researching this divine tool, so this sword was no longer restricted to the power of the divine tool. Wang Chong had merged it with the Art of God and Demon Obliteration, the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, and the law energy of spacetime.
Wang Chong had even merged into it the Sage Emperor’s Son of Heaven’s Sword. This was what had created the powerful ‘upgraded’ Sword of God.
As this sword emerged, the fabric of space for the surrounding several hundred feet trembled as if it was unable to endure this power.
The God-Executing Sword!
Wang Chong let out a thunderous bellow, and that blazing golden sword sliced through space and toward that attack descending from the heavens.
The world seemed to fall silent for a moment, even time seeming to stop.
The depths of spacetime even trembled upon facing Wang Chong’s sword.
“Impossible!”
Essence Supreme, in his mental form, couldn’t help but be stunned by this sight.
For a mortal human to be able to use a divine tool to this level was truly astonishing. Even many of the Supremes would seem inferior to this human.
“It’s a pity that he’s still no match!”
