Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sounds of light footsteps could be heard upstairs. The footsteps were very subtle. It sounded like the sound of a girl walking.

Lu Yao walked down the stairs with a dog beside her. Chen Heng turned around to take a look at Lu Yao, who was walking down the stairs. Today, Lu Yao was wearing a simple short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt. She looked very fit, but there were wounds on her arms, thighs, and many other places.

From the looks of it, she was obviously injured. And beside her, Ye Zi was currently in the form of a little white dog. However, she also looked a little dispirited, as if she did not have much energy.

Compared to Lu Yao’s injuries, Ye Zi’s injuries were much more obscure. It was even more so after she became a dog. She was basically undetectable. Thus, one could only see that Ye Zi was in low spirits from the outside. As for the rest, one could not tell much.

Of course, that was only for ordinary people. To Chen Heng, he could tell at a glance what was happening to Lu Yao and Ye Zi.

“Have they not recovered yet?”

Looking at the conditions of Lu Yao and Ye Zi’s bodies and feeling their injuries, Chen Heng’s expression was calm. He shook his head in his heart. From the looks of it, Chen Heng had overestimated the strength of Ye Zi, the King’s Right Hand.

Such a simple injury actually required such a long time, and it hadn’t even fully recovered yet. From this aspect, Ye Zi’s strength wasn’t that strong. It was very likely that she wasn’t even as strong as Chen Heng at this moment.

“How did she get injured?”

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but on the surface, Chen Heng’s expression was very calm. He didn’t reveal the slightest bit of abnormality. He only looked at Lu Yao in front of him with some doubt and asked softly.

Being stared at by Chen Heng’s gaze, Lu Yao lowered her head and subconsciously felt a little guilty. After a long while, she said softly, “When I was playing outside, I had an accident.”

She spoke carefully and told Chen Heng the reason that she had told the others previously. As she spoke, she felt a sense of unease, afraid that Chen Heng would discover something amiss.

After all, the reason that she had mentioned earlier could be used to brush off ordinary people, but for a powerhouse like Chen Heng, he would still feel that something was odd.

Fortunately, after listening to Lu Yao’s words, Chen Heng only furrowed his brow in the end and did not say anything. It was obvious that he had accepted her reason.

“Recently, the surroundings have been a little chaotic. If there’s nothing else, try not to go out.”

Chen Heng sat on the sofa and looked at Lu Yao in front of him. He spoke softly and instructed her.

“Alright.”

Lu Yao nodded seriously. Only then did the anxiety in her heart finally disappear. Following that, food had been prepared beside them.

At home, Chen Heng, Lu Yao, and the rest ate together. After that, he prepared to leave.

“Leaving so soon?”

Standing at the same spot, Lu Yao looked at Chen Heng, who was packing his things and preparing to leave. She could not help but feel a little surprised. “Aren’t you going to stay for a few more days?”

“I have no choice.”

Standing in front of Lu Yao and listening to her words, Chen Heng shook his head and said softly, “Recently, there are a lot of things that need to be taken care of outside. I can’t stay.

“I came back this time just to drop by to see you all.”

He said so. Strictly speaking, Chen Heng was not lying. He has been very busy recently. The work of the Guardian was secondary. The focus was on other aspects.

As the arrival of the Five Knights approached, the sense of crisis in Chen Heng’s heart grew stronger. Therefore, some things had to be expedited to avoid accidents.

Chen Heng has been busy with various tasks recently: the handling of his Imperial Beasts, the advancement of his own strength, the purification of his killing power.

All of these things were time-consuming. Chen Heng had to invest a lot of time in them to complete them. It was also because of this that Chen Heng had been so busy recently that he didn’t even have any time to rest.

However, Chen Heng himself was so busy because of the upcoming arrival of the Five Knights. Still, as one of the main characters of the story, Lu Yao was instead confused and at a loss. From the looks of it, she did not know anything about her current situation and danger?

Probably not. It was just that she did not realize the seriousness of this matter. Chen Heng couldn’t help but shake his head.

Maybe it was because she was the main protagonist. No matter how serious the trouble was, no matter how big the danger was, it would always be like this.

Moreover, because these people had their destiny, even if they were like this, they would still live. They even had the protection from the Power of Destiny to turn a dangerous situation into a blessing.

But unfortunately, the people around them wouldn’t be so lucky. Sooner or later, they would all be dragged down to their deaths, just like Chen Heng’s predecessor, as well as their parents.

In the original trajectory of destiny, his predecessor’s life was ruined by Lu Yao. He lost his bright future and even took on a path of no return. In the end, he might even die in Lu Yao’s hands, turning into a stepping stone for her further transformation.

As for their parents, they were not mentioned by Destiny in the original trajectory. But from Chen Heng’s perspective, they most likely did not have a good ending.

Thinking of this, he could not help but turn around. He took another look at Lu Yao behind him and then left.

Behind him, Lu Yao stood silently on the spot, watching Chen Heng’s figure disappear before her eyes. After a long while, she left the room and returned to her own room.

“My brother seems to be very busy…”

After returning to her room, Lu Yao recalled Chen Heng’s figure just now. At this moment, this thought could not help but flash through her mind. In her impression, Chen Heng had always been very busy.

Whether it was in the past or now, it was the same. Lu Yao was already used to it by now.

“My king, your next transformation is about to begin.”

Beside her, Ye Zi’s voice rang out, reminding her softly at this moment.

“I understand.”

Lu Yao nodded to Ye Zi’s words, indicating that she understood. It had already been a month since her last transformation. Her second transformation was about to begin.

Of course, compared to her last transformation, Lu Yao was confident that no one would notice her this time, so she did not leave her home. A faint golden light flickered. In Lu Yao’s eyes, a faint golden light flashed past and appeared.

At first glance, it was incomparably dazzling, like a G.o.d, exceptionally divine. After that, all the strange phenomena disappeared. Lu Yao returned to her bed and began to fall into a deep sleep.

On her forehead, the Golden Mark appeared and interwoven into a brand new form. However, not long after that, this golden mark disappeared. All the strange phenomena on Lu Yao’s body disappeared. At this moment, she was like an ordinary girl. She appeared very quiet and fell asleep on the head of her bed.

Time slowly pa.s.sed, imperceptibly between, and more than two months time pa.s.sed.

For two months, everything was quiet all around, and nothing seemed to happen. From the looks of it, the Round Table didn’t do anything.

Of course, this is only on the surface. In the dark, there were still many changes happening. Vaguely, there seemed to be a powerful force causing trouble, affecting something.

However, Chen Heng didn’t care about all of this. At this moment, his own cultivation had also progressed to a new level.

“Have I already reached this level?”

Chen Heng looked around as he stood alone in a wide plaza. It was empty around him. There was no one else but Chen Heng alone. In this s.p.a.ce, he was like the center of the world, controlling absolute power and absolutes.

A moment later, Chen Heng slowly closed his eyes. The light of the world slowly faded from his eyes, and darkness once again enveloped his eyes.

At this moment, everything around him seemed to have changed. The light of the true spirit flickered and enveloped the surroundings. A brand new power faintly enveloped this s.p.a.ce.

A gentle breeze blew around, and the ground trembled slightly. In the distance, there was the sound of insects and the faint sound of matter moving. Chen Heng could sense these things that ordinary people could not detect even more clearly.

This also meant that his current strength had reached a new level. Chen Heng’s strength had already reached Peak Level Four. Although the strength at this level didn’t seem like much, it was very impressive in reality.

After all, from the start till now, Chen Heng had only stepped onto this world’s path of cultivation for one to two years. And at this moment, it had been less than four months since he had advanced to Level Four. He was cultivating at such a terrifying speed that would be unbelievable to others.

Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes and looked around. In his mind, all the strange phenomena in the surroundings had disappeared, returning to normal once again.

He stood quietly on the spot, looking up at his surroundings, feeling the whistling of heaven and earth.

“I’m still a little lacking…”

Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he felt the surging power in his body. At that moment, this thought flashed through his mind. If he wanted to, he would have reached Peak Level Four long ago.

The reason why he had only broken through now was that he wanted to push himself to a higher level. However, he was still a little lacking. This world’s Level Four seemed to be like other worlds. It was a brand new threshold, a brand new transformation.

It was not so easy to cross it. Of course, the reason why Chen Heng had acc.u.mulated enough strength to advance to Peak Level Four and even breakthrough to Level Five so quickly was because of all sorts of fortuitous encounters.

The nameless refinement method he obtained from the nameless inheritance was one of them. This refinement method could increase one’s telekinetic power and power of one’s true spirit. Coupled with Chen Heng’s powerful true spirit, his cultivation speed would be much faster.

This was one of them. The other was Olly, who had been killed by Chen Heng. In that battle, not only had Chen Heng killed a Level Four, he had also killed Olly, a Level Five powerhouse.

The killing of a Level Five had provided Chen Heng with a large amount of strength. After all, the slaughter divinity provides strength gains by slaughtering, and the stronger the target, and the more n.o.ble the bloodline was, the greater the strength one would gain.

The strength that Chen Heng obtained through killing Olly had allowed him to advance greatly.

Then, there was still another reason. w.a.n.g Zhong’s killing seed had provided Chen Heng with a lot of power. Before this, w.a.n.g Zhong had provided Chen Heng with a considerable amount of killing power.

In the past few months, w.a.n.g Zhong seemed to have gone into a frenzy. He had been providing Chen Heng with several times more killing power every day.

It was because of this excess supply of killing power that Chen Heng was able to improve at such a rapid speed and reach his current level. Compared to the people of this world, it was much easier for Chen Heng to improve.

With his previous level, before he reached the level of his main body, he only needed to acc.u.mulate enough to quickly reach the corresponding level. He didn’t need to be like the others, whom they needed to break through their bottleneck to complete the corresponding breakthrough.

Comparatively speaking, his speed was naturally much faster. Of course, although his speed was faster, he still needed to pay attention to the basic principles.

Chen Heng’s speed was already to the extent that even Chen Heng himself was somewhat surprised. It was a good thing for him. Under the current situation, it was the time when he needed strength the most.

Every bit of increase in Chen Heng’s strength meant that he would be safer from now on. After some time, Chen Heng turned around and was about to leave.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt something. He silently raised his head and looked at the sky. Under his gaze, the scene in the sky was displayed.

A blue sky appeared in the sky. There were white clouds floating in the sky. It was exceptionally beautiful. Everything seemed very calm. There was nothing special about it. It seemed very normal.

However, there was a sense of incongruity by Chen Heng. He could sense a very powerful aura coming from afar.

At first, he could only sense that aura slightly. However, as time pa.s.sed, it became clearer and clearer. Finally, when this aura reached a certain threshold, a strange phenomenon began to appear in the sky. A crimson light appeared.

In midair, a crimson meteor appeared. It flickered like another crimson sun and appeared in the sky. It appeared in the sky and rushed straight to the other side. After that, the light dove in an unknown direction.

At this moment, the entire world was silent. It was incomparably vast and terrifying. A terrifying aura that was like that of a G.o.d in the sky was displayed. There were no clouds in the sky. All the wind and clouds dissipated. They were affected by that aura and were directly pulled and disappeared.

At this moment, the entire planet seemed to be affected by that mysterious aura. It began to shake inexplicably. Even its rotation seemed to have stopped. This terrifying scene continued for a long time.

After a full half an hour, the strange scene before them completely disappeared. It was only at this moment that the people on this planet had already realized something.

A terrifying powerhouse had come from outer s.p.a.ce and descended upon this planet. And that terrifying aura belongs to…

“The Crimson Knight…”

Chen Heng looked in the direction where the crimson meteor had fallen. His expression was particularly grave. “Has he descended right now?”

The Crimson Knight was no stranger to him. In the original trajectory of destiny, he was the one who had descended on Qika Star and forced Lu Yao to run away from this planet.

This was one of the Five Knights of the Round Table and also the most powerful expert in this galaxy. In Chen Heng’s prediction, there should still be some time before the high and mighty Five Knight descended.

Now, the descent was several months in advance.

“Is it the consequences of killing Olly…”

In an instant, this thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind. Unlike the original trajectory, in reality, he had killed Olly early. Even though he had restrained the movements of the Round Table on Qika Star, he had undoubtedly alerted the Round Table a.s.sociation.

Perhaps this was the reason why the Crimson Knight had arrived earlier. Standing where he was, Chen Heng quickly figured out the crux of the matter.

“It looks like the final clash is about to begin.”

Chen Heng pondered for a moment, then smiled. The Crimson Knight had descended earlier. This was bad news for Chen Heng. Originally, there was still a few months left for him, which would have allowed him to advance to Level Five.

By then, with the power of the Ancient Mecha, there would be chances for him to fight back even though his strength would still be inferior. But now, there was a little uncertainty.

However, it did not matter. Since the enemy had already arrived, then they would just fight it out. At worst, he would just die. Chen Heng smiled, then turned around and left this area.

And in the distance, more people also reacted. After the initial shock and panic, everyone realized what had happened.

“How is this possible! How is this possible!”

On the Qika star, the people of the Qika Federation were already panicking. They naturally understood what the crimson meteor falling onto the Qika Star meant. This was what caused their fear and unease.

One had to know that it was none other than one of the Five Knights, the Crimson Knight. Unlike Olly and Avril, the Crimson Knight was truly qualified to ignore the existence of the Qika Federation.

The Qika Federation itself did possess considerable strength. However, this bit of strength was not too significant in the face of the Round Table. Although they had previously been able to defy both Olly and Avril, this did not mean that they would be able to do the same in the face of the Crimson Knight.

To put it bluntly, if the Crimson Knight was willing, no one would dare to offend even if the Qika Star was destroyed. The most they could do was just voice their condemnation and say a few words. It was completely useless.

No one would not feel fl.u.s.tered facing the arrival of such a G.o.d of Death.
