Chapter 436: Re-entering Wujian

~8 min read 1,480 words

"So that's how it is."

Li Heng exhaled a breath of stale air, lost in thought.

He had not previously seen through the truth that the Emperor Road was an illusion and that the people on the Emperor Road were also dead, likely because of that Wujian concealment. And since he had not utilized Source Power, he naturally could not see it clearly.

"Fellow Daoist does not seem surprised?"

Fu Yi asked with surprise.

Li Heng shook his head.

"Since I entered the True Realm, I have encountered this situation frequently. There are dead people who think they are not dead, dead people who think they can be reborn from death, and dead people who look like living people."

"In this vast True Realm, one cannot find a single truly living person."

As he spoke, he sighed with emotion.

Fu Yi chuckled and spoke with emotion.

"It seems that not only the Wujian Road, but the situation in the True Realm outside the Wujian Road is just as dire. However, this is not strange. To be able to maintain one's own survival and not die in such a dire True Realm, such a person must be a heaven-reaching great power, a Sacred existence."

At this moment, the little golden dragon spoke up in confusion.

"Since the living beings on the Emperor Road are all dead, why do you, this fellow, still want to establish a so-called Taigu Divine Dynasty?"

Fu Yi curled his lip.

"Only you, this second generation, are allowed to enjoy yourself, but I am not? Anyway, I am already dead, so what if I build a Divine Dynasty? Moreover, this Divine Dynasty is also a derivative product under the Script."

"Script?" the little golden dragon asked in confusion.

"The people or events on the Emperor Road are all reenactments of old scenes; in reality, the ending is already destined, which is why it is called a Script. In the original history, such a Divine Dynasty already existed, standing in the middle section of the Emperor Road, and I am merely following the trend."

Fu Yi explained.

"Then what is the Script this time?"

Li Heng asked curiously.

"Every time the Ascension Road opens, it is a different Script in the present day. And this time, the Script is naturally a series of stories about the supreme prodigy Shaoyang Jun falling after crossing the Final Heavenly Moat, leaving behind a legacy, which was later obtained by the Ninth Prince who returned from the Old God Dynasty."

Fu Yi said leisurely.

Li Heng's expression was strange.

Shaoyang Jun, Ninth Prince, Xiaojiu?

With consciousness, he had directly met all the protagonists?

However, he did not take it too much to heart; after all, he was only borrowing the Ascension Road to head to the Central Great World, and he was too lazy to participate in this Script of reenacting old events.

"Then it seems you have won big."

The little golden dragon spoke up, sounding sarcastic.

After all, the matter was already very clear.

"In the end, it is all a Script; what is there to say about winning or losing? It is meaningless. Moreover, this time, because of your appearance, the Script has already had errors and accidents."

"Just like now, Shaoyang Jun failed to return to the Emperor Road."

"He is still staying on the Wujian Road."

Fu Yi curled his lip.

Li Heng was somewhat surprised; he had thought that with Shaoyang Jun's strength, he could tear through the Void and return to the Emperor Road, but he had actually crashed?

Interesting.

After a bout of idle chatter, Li Heng and the little golden dragon bid farewell to Fu Yi, not intending to waste time. Seeing that the man and dragon had made up their minds to leave, Fu Yi did not stop them and could only offer a word of caution to be careful.

Watching the backs of Li Heng and the little golden dragon as they departed, and then carefully feeling his own broken Talisman Body, Fu Yi sighed. He knew that this time, he might truly be parting forever with his old friend, the little golden dragon; the Central Great World was incomparably dangerous.

By Li Heng's side, the little golden dragon was complaining.

"Exalted One, did you see that? That fellow looks down on people. Clearly he is a dead person himself, yet he looked at us as if we were dead people too. I don't mind, but this is clearly disrespectful to you, Exalted One!"

Watching the little golden dragon "slander," Li Heng smiled lightly.

"I will go settle things with him after this is over."

Hearing this, the little golden dragon was stunned, and he muttered in his heart.

Can we really come back from this trip?

Returning to the place of that Emperor Road passage, Li Heng waved his hand, causing the passage that had been hidden very deeply to appear, and then he walked in. In the blink of an eye, the Heaven and Earth changed, and he returned to the Wujian Road.

However, this return was accompanied by a great spectacle.

Boom—!

The entire sky and earth began to tremble; Blood-colored Thunder Dragon appeared in the vast Void, and a Terror-filled will descended once again, carrying with it one layer of hell after another and the wronged souls suffering within the hells.

"You should not have returned."

The voice resounded through the Void; it was Wujian.

"Why can I not return?"

Li Heng was calm and asked in return.

"As the manager of the Wujian Inn, you did not fulfill the duties of Wujian, but instead took the inn and fled to the Emperor Road, which has seriously violated the Wujian Iron Law."

"I did not pursue you to the Emperor Road, which was already showing mercy."

"But now you have returned; are you provoking me?"

Wujian's words echoed continuously, causing the surrounding laws to resonate. Strips of Rule Divine Chain appeared, densely covering Li Heng and the little golden dragon, forming a large net.

"But is that really the case?"

Li Heng spread his hands and began to laugh.

"You have appeared with such a great spectacle now; is it really because I violated the Wujian Iron Law and you want to descend to punish me? Or is it that you want to stop me from borrowing the Wujian Road to head to the Central Great World?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings instantly became quiet.

Wujian was silent for a long time, and then spoke.

"Outsider, how did you know this?"

"Naturally, it was from the Emperor Road, from Fu Yi, Lord of the Old God Dynasty."

The little golden dragon said smugly, shifting the blame onto others.

"So it was him? One of the Immortal Gods of the old days."

"But since you already know this, why continue forward? You should have already learned of the dangers of the Central Great World from that old Immortal God."

Wujian said, having suddenly realized something, yet still feeling puzzled.

"That is naturally because I have the confidence."

Li Heng said slowly.

"How can you prove it?"

"You must know, you were previously unable to even resist the status of Innkeeper I bestowed upon you; such strength is no different from courting death upon entering the Central Great World."

Wujian said slowly, not trusting Li Heng.

"Oh, is that so?"

Li Heng smiled with a strange expression.

"Take another look at whether I am the Innkeeper of Wujian Inn, or something else?" He released his aura, allowing Wujian to inspect it, not worried about any accidents occurring.

"Isn't this still the innkee..."

Wujian had wanted to say this after probing, but suddenly detected something unusual and swallowed the word "keeper" back; the face manifested in the Void suddenly became astonished.

Because he discovered that this Wujian Inn no longer belonged solely to him, but also to another existence, and this existence was none other than Li Heng himself!

If one were to compare Wujian Inn to a company.

Previously, he possessed one hundred percent of the equity in Wujian Inn, but now, for some inexplicable reason, a new shareholder with fifty percent equity had appeared!

And upon checking carefully, he discovered...

This shareholder had also fleeced him of quite a lot!

Li Heng smiled slightly.

He had already fleeced a great deal of Source Power from this Wujian Inn, and as for Golden Source Points, he had fleeced as many as ten; now, his total number of Golden Source Points had reached sixty-five.

However, this had also reached the limit and was about to be discovered by Wujian. Simply put, Li Heng directly revealed this matter, using it as proof of his strength.

"How did you do it?"

After checking again and again, he still could not detect why.

Wujian could only ask in astonishment.
