Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 415 The Final Chapter! (Part 2)

"You're courting death!" Sea God Tang San's face was icy cold. He snorted, but faced with Zhu Ziyang's provocative actions, he made no move except for verbal acknowledgment.

"Ha! Just as I suspected!" Seeing the Sea God's reaction, Zhu Ziyang instantly confirmed his suspicions, and his attitude became even more unrestrained. He said, "So even the Sea God has something he's afraid of, huh? Tsk tsk tsk!"

"Hmph!" Tang San, the Sea God, looked very ugly. If he wasn't worried that taking action would attract the attention of the gods in the God Realm and expose his unauthorized descent to the mortal realm, he would have already attacked Zhu Ziyang and shown him why he was the one who ascended to the God Realm, instead of Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong!

Tang San had no intention of lingering in the mortal realm. He knew that his goal of preventing the unification of the continent had become unattainable the moment Zhu Ziyang appeared, so there was no need for him to linger any longer. Every minute he stayed in the mortal realm increased the risk of exposure. Therefore, he immediately changed his attitude, adopting the demeanor of a caring and persuasive senior. He said, "Starting a war lightly goes against the general trend and violates the people's wishes. Young man, think carefully!"

"Hahaha!" Zhu Ziyang was amused by Tang San's words and scoffed without hesitation, saying, "You really know how to spout high-sounding platitudes. What 'lightly starting a war' and 'going against the tide'? It's clearly just that you don't want to see the continent unified. After all, how can a unified Douluo Continent be as easy to harvest faith as a divided Douluo Continent?"

"Heh." Tang San sneered, realizing his thoughts had been exposed. His figure flickered, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on Huo Yuhao. His brows furrowed slightly, but then he looked at Tang Wutong further back and said, "Wutong, come home with Daddy!"

Amidst the utter astonishment of the crowd, Tang Wutong ran out from the crowd, glancing at Huo Yuhao with a hint of reluctance, but her movements continued without pause as she flew towards Tang San.

Zhu Ziyang was somewhat surprised. He really hadn't expected that Tang Wutong was actually Tang San's daughter. So, Wang Dong'er was also Tang San's daughter? Tsk tsk, that's ruthless!

"Huo Yuhao, if you want to be with Wu Tong, then help the Star Luo Empire restore its kingdom. After all, you are also a descendant of Mu Bai." Tang San looked at Huo Yuhao with a condescending and condescending attitude and said.

Huo Yuhao's face turned incredibly ugly upon hearing Tang San's words; he looked worse than if he had eaten rat droppings. Three out of the four sentences Tang San spoke made him feel utterly disgusted, and he felt an urge to spit on him.

What do you mean by wanting to be with Tang Wutong? The Xiao Xiao he likes, at the very least, is Wang Dong'er, not Tang Wutong, this Frankenstein's monster! And what do you mean by saying he's also a descendant of Mu Bai? Dai Mubai? That's ridiculous! His surname is Huo, what does he have to do with someone surnamed Dai? Even if he did, it would only be hatred.

Huo Yuhao was speechless, while Tang San took in Huo Yuhao's reaction. A cold rage flashed in his eyes. He couldn't deal with Zhu Ziyang, but surely he could deal with a mere brat who hadn't even become a god yet? Just wait, when you get to the God Realm, you'll be in for a world of hurt!

Tang San was very confident in Tang Wutong, after all, she was his daughter, and she possessed all the qualities that Huo Yuhao admired. He didn't believe that Huo Yuhao could resist Tang Wutong's allure.

"I say, threatening my junior brother right in front of me and trying to take away students from Shrek Academy, is the Sea God really that cowardly?" Zhu Ziyang, who had been watching the commotion for a while, spoke up. He couldn't possibly let Tang San take Tang Wutong away. He was joking; Xiao Xiao's soul was still in Tang Wutong's body. If they went to the God Realm, wouldn't Xiao Xiao's soul be completely refined by Tang Wutong? That was absolutely unacceptable.

As he spoke, Zhu Ziyang took action, extending the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe in his hand forward, which transformed into a white energy hook that instantly wrapped around Tang Wutong. Then, he pulled her back forcefully, bringing her directly to his side. To prevent her from causing trouble, he delivered a chop to her hand, knocking her unconscious.

Tang San was furious at Zhu Ziyang's behavior, and a smile actually appeared on his face. Clearly, he was so angry that he laughed in his anger. He said, "Fine, fine, you're very good."

A blue-gold trident appeared in his hand; clearly, he was ready to fight Zhu Ziyang. At this moment, he was no longer worried about his actions in the mortal realm being exposed, because Zhu Ziyang had already given him an excuse: Tang Wutong. People from the mortal realm had bullied his daughter, and he, as a father, was avenging her by violating the laws of the divine realm. Although it had a negative impact, it was understandable, wasn't it?

After all, when Xiao Qi descended to the mortal realm, all the kings of the God Realm agreed! Tang San became happier and happier as he thought about it, and the light of the Sea God Trident in his hand became more and more commanding. He was preparing to take this opportunity to kill Zhu Ziyang directly, otherwise Zhu Ziyang's existence was like a thorn in his side, making him very uncomfortable!

Tang San was very confident in his strength. After all, he was the chosen one who possessed two gods. Even if Zhu Ziyang was the God of Death and the God King, his Asura God was also a God King. Moreover, he became a god ten thousand years earlier than Zhu Ziyang, so he had more experience. Therefore, this would be a crushing battle!

Once we've eliminated Zhu Ziyang, this heretic, we can also take care of that new God of Fire, lest he ascend to the God Realm and affect my relationship with Ma Hongjun. Hmm, that's how it'll be! With that thought, Tang San no longer concealed his aura. The pressure of a god instantly permeated the entire world, making everyone on and below the city wall feel heavy and unable to move.

Zhu Ziyang was already on high alert, his eyes gleaming, ready to fight Tang San at any moment and drag this sea god who had dominated the Douluo Continent for ten thousand years down from the Douluo altar in the most undignified way!

Both sides were ready, and war was imminent, but the battle ended before it even began.

Three meteors flew from the direction of the Sun Moon Empire, landing directly in the air above the Sun Moon army, behind Zhu Ziyang. The meteors' brilliance faded, revealing three women of unparalleled beauty. Behind each of them, ten soul rings shimmered, indicating that they were all gods who had reached the divine level!

They were, of course, Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, and Qian Lingyi.

Upon seeing the three women appear, the Sun and Moon Army cheered with joy, while Star Luo City was shrouded in desolation and silence. Sea God Tang San's face was also extremely ugly. Ma Xiaotao's appearance was unexpected, yet also within his expectations. However, Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi truly broke his guard, especially Qian Lingyi's rich holy aura and golden angelic divine armor.

"Why are you here?" Zhu Ziyang asked, somewhat surprised.

"We sensed divine power in Mingdu and guessed that you might need our help, so we came," Jiang Nannan said, her eyes scanning the Sea God Tang San opposite her as if she were looking at a rare and precious species.

"Oh, that's perfect! Let's build a relationship with Lord Sea God together," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. "I'm sure Lord Sea God would be more than willing."

"Alright, alright, I've long admired the Sea God!" Qian Lingyi, who had successfully inherited the Angel God's position and restored it to the first-level godhood, said with a forced smile. As the successor of the Angel God, it wouldn't be too much for her to call the Sea God a family friend, would it? They were like sworn enemies.

"I really want to see what level the original Shrek Seven Devils' key figures are at!" Ma Xiaotao clenched her fists, looking eager to try.

"Hmph..." With a cold snort, a burst of blue-gold divine light flashed, and the Sea God disappeared instantly. Clearly, facing the impending siege of Zhu Ziyang and the other three, the Sea God Tang San wisely chose to avoid their sharp edge, abandoning even his own daughter and retreating directly back to the God Realm. He can be described as an unparalleled good father.

"Yay!" Seeing the Sea God retreat, the Sun and Moon Army erupted in a thunderous cheer, all chanting Zhu Ziyang's name in unison, "Jing Tian! Jing Tian! Jing Tian!"

Unlike the jubilant scene of the Sun and Moon Army, the already desolate and deathly atmosphere in Star Luo City became even colder. A sense of helplessness and despair permeated everyone's hearts. The enemy had four gods. At this moment, their only option was probably to surrender.

"Your Highness, it's over." At this moment, Zhu Ziyang's voice came from the sky, causing Xu Jiujiu to look up. Zhu Ziyang was high above, like a god. No, he really was a god. "For the sake of friendship, Shrek Academy will still reserve a place for Star Crown Martial Soul."

"Really?" A glimmer of light finally appeared in her long-depressed heart. She recalled another matter that Zhu Ziyang had discussed with her during their last meeting: the Star Crown Martial Soul, as a long-standing support-type Martial Soul, was being taken in by Shrek Academy after its defeat. She had been quite angry at the time, but she hadn't expected it to become a reality so quickly. Heh, she should be laughing, right? At least the Star Crown Sect hadn't been destroyed in her generation. As for the Star Luo Empire, let it go with the wind.

In the tenth month of the fourth year of the Moon Goddess Empress's reign, Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Empire left Star Luo City and surrendered to Marshal Xu Qianxuan, the Duke of Zhenguo. The Star Luo Empire was destroyed, and the Douluo Continent was unified.

On the first day of the fifth year of the reign of Empress Luna, Her Majesty the Empress changed the calendar and the name of the country: Ming! Historically known as the Great Ming Empire, this day is regarded as the first year of the empire.

-

The year after the unification of the mainland, Shrek Academy, Tianyuan Pavilion.

"Senior brother!" Twenty-three-year-old Huo Yuhao found twenty-six-year-old Zhu Ziyang and called out excitedly.

"Yuhao, congratulations!" Zhu Ziyang said with a smile when he saw Huo Yuhao. "Huo Yuhao, the God of Emotions, not bad. It seems the academy's Divine Plaza will have another new statue!"

"Hehe." Huo Yuhao chuckled foolishly, "Thanks to your help, Senior Brother, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have been able to inherit the godhood smoothly."

Huo Yuhao was referring to the fact that when he inherited the divine position, due to the special nature of the God of Emotions, he needed to possess an item or ability that could bear the power of seven emotions. However, Huo Yuhao only had three soul spirits at the time, which was completely unable to bear the power of seven emotions. It was Zhu Ziyang who told him that he could let the soul spirit of his second martial soul bear the power of the god, which enabled him to successfully inherit the divine position.

"I just happened to be there; it's mainly because you did well," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. He then took out a gray gem and handed it to Huo Yuhao. "Hey, Yuhao, what do you think of this gem?"

"This..." Huo Yuhao looked at the precious pearl in Zhu Ziyang's hand with surprise and doubt. He could feel the mysterious energy emanating from the pearl and realized that it might be a divine position. But what made his heart tremble was that his divine position was actually trembling, as if it were excited or worshipping, causing his heart to race. He looked at Zhu Ziyang with some confusion and asked, "Senior brother, what is this? Why do I have the urge to devour it?"

"This is the divine position of the Rakshasa God!" Zhu Ziyang felt more at ease with his own thoughts after hearing Huo Yuhao's words, and thus spoke up.

"The throne of the Rakshasa God!" Huo Yuhao couldn't help but gasp. He naturally knew about the Rakshasa God, which explained his surprise. He asked, "Senior brother, isn't the Rakshasa God an evil god? Why is his throne in your hands?"

"Heh, is Rakshasa really an evil god?" Zhu Ziyang chuckled, neither confirming nor denying Huo Yuhao's words, and said, "Let me tell you a story!"

Afterwards, Zhu Ziyang told Huo Yuhao the whole story of the origins, love and hate entanglements of the Shura and Rakshasa. After listening, Huo Yuhao felt his eyes were opened and he was deeply shocked.

"Senior brother, you mean that this Rakshasa God is actually a god-king on par with the Asura God, and a god-king who wields the power of emotions!" Huo Yuhao said, immediately understanding Zhu Ziyang's intention in bringing out the Rakshasa God's position. A touch of emotion appeared on his face. "Senior brother, are you planning to give this Rakshasa God's position to me?"

"That's right!" Zhu Ziyang nodded and said, "After you ascend to the God Realm, you will inevitably face the difficulties posed by the Sea God. With your status as a first-level god, you are destined to be unable to contend with Tang San, who possesses the status of the Asura God. Therefore, you need this Rakshasa God status!"

However, the current Rakshasa god only holds the rank of a second-level god. To make him a god-king again, a large amount of emotional essence is needed, and you happen to possess that emotional essence. Do you understand what I mean?

"I..." Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment. He understood Zhu Ziyang's words. His Godhood of Emotions could elevate the Rakshasa Godhood back to the God-King level, although the price was high—requiring a Level One Godhood—the rewards were equally high, granting him a God-Kinghood. The risks were naturally enormous. However, Huo Yuhao thought of the various painful emotions emanating from Tang Wutong over the past year, and he no longer hesitated. He raised his head, a resolute glint in his eyes, and said, "Senior Brother, I'm willing to try!"

"Alright, I'll protect you!" Huo Yuhao's answer was exactly what Zhu Ziyang expected. He immediately said, "Follow me!"

Zhu Ziyang placed his hand on Huo Yuhao's shoulder, and with a thought, the two disappeared.

-

Three months later, on a certain day, a strange fluctuation of laws suddenly erupted in the God Realm, which was far above the endless heavens. This fluctuation was exactly the same as the fluctuation when the God of Death returned to his position last time. This time, the two God Kings guarding the central hub of the God Realm were the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction. As the oldest beings in the God Realm at present, they immediately understood what had happened.

"Little Purple, can you feel it?" the Goddess of Life asked, her eyes filled with joy.

"Hmm!" A pair of bright eyes peeked out from beneath the God of Destruction's robes. He said, "It's the source of emotions repairing itself, and it's already done!"

"Excellent! Excellent!" the Goddess of Life exclaimed. "With this, our power has increased by two! A complete Asura and a complete Rakshasa—how wonderful!"

"I hope so!" The God of Destruction listened to his wife's cheers, but a different thought flashed through his mind. He felt that things were not so simple. The position of the Rakshasa God had fallen to the Douluo Continent, and the newly born God of Death was also on the Douluo Continent. He did not believe that there was no connection between the two. So, the Sea God's return with a dark face after descending to the mortal realm not long ago was related to this matter, right?

At the same moment, on the Douluo Continent, Zhu Ziyang and Huo Yuhao appeared in the Tianyuan Pavilion, both with expressions of excitement and joy on their faces.

"Yuhao, congratulations! You've become the true God of Emotions!" Zhu Ziyang said first.

"Yes, yes! Senior brother, thank you so much!" Huo Yuhao said to Zhu Ziyang with gratitude on his face.

"Alright, no need to be so formal," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, patting Huo Yuhao on the shoulder. "Go do what you want to do. You should be able to do it quite easily now! Remember to let me know when you're ready to leave Douluo Continent!"

"Yes!" Huo Yuhao left with an excited heart and a silly grin.

"Rakshasa God-King, not bad," Zhu Ziyang said thoughtfully, watching Huo Yuhao's departing figure. "I wonder what you will choose. Will you keep the Sea God's position or the Asura God's position? If you keep the Asura God's position, can you really escape the spiritual judgment of a god? Tsk tsk, how intriguing!"

-

In the second year of the empire, Her Majesty the Empress issued an edict, appointing Prince Zhu Yuhuang as Crown Prince and Princess Zhu Yuyue as Moon Goddess.

The entire empire erupted in cheers and support for the edict. No one cared that the imperial family would change from the Xu family to the Zhu family. In fact, everyone was happy to see it happen, since everyone knew that His Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Moon Goddess were the children of Her Majesty the Empress and Her Majesty the God of Death, true offspring of the gods.

This means that the future imperial family will become true descendants of the gods, protected by them, ensuring greater stability for the empire. This is a welcome development for those who already benefit from the status quo. For ordinary people, the stability of the empire is also a cause for celebration.

Therefore, there was absolutely no dissent from top to bottom.

That year, Zhu Yuhuang and Zhu Yuyue turned six. After awakening their martial spirits, Zhang Lexuan immediately bestowed upon them the titles of Crown Prince and Moon Goddess Princess. The position of Crown Prince was self-evident—the future Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. As for the title of Moon Goddess Princess, it was a title Zhang Lexuan specially created for her daughters to express her love for them. After all, the title Moon Goddess held a special meaning in the present-day Ming Empire.

The two little ones didn't care about the change in their positions; what they cared about was that their martial souls were different, which saddened them for a long time.

The elder brother, Zhu Yuhuang, possesses the Heavenly Frost Sacred Dragon as his martial soul. He has innate full soul power, plus the divine blessing from Zhu Ziyang, resulting in an innate soul power level of twenty. He is also the ultimate ice.

The younger sister, Zhu Yuyue, possesses twin martial souls: the Moon Martial Soul and the Jing Shi Golden Scythe Martial Soul. She has innate full soul power, plus the divine blessing from Jiang Nannan, so her innate soul power is also level 20, and it is also the ultimate light.

It is foreseeable that these two little ones will become outstanding talents who will amaze an era in the future. As for whether they can surpass their parents, that depends on their own luck.

-

In the third year of the empire, inside the Ming capital palace, Zhu Ziyang saw Huo Yuhao off.

"Senior brother, we'll meet again in the God Realm!" Huo Yuhao said solemnly, extending his fist towards Zhu Ziyang.

"See you in the realm of gods!" Zhu Ziyang also extended his fist and pressed it against Huo Yuhao's fist.

"Farewell, senior brother!" Standing on either side of Huo Yuhao were two women, Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong'er.

After becoming the Rakshasa God, Huo Yuhao immediately separated Xiao Xiao's soul from Tang Wutong's and successfully resurrected her. Without Xiao Xiao's soul, Tang Wutong's soul shattered instantly. After Huo Yuhao removed the Sea God's power from these soul fragments, he retrieved Wang Dong'er's soul from them and resurrected her.

After Wang Dong'er was resurrected, all her memories surged from the depths of her soul, including her memories as Xiao Qi, Wang Dong'er, and Tang Wutong. She almost collapsed. If Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao hadn't stabilized her emotions in time, her soul would probably have shattered again.

For Wang Dong'er, or rather Tang Wutong, who has experienced the dissection, stitching, and shattering of her soul, there is only one thought now: pain, so much pain!

When she goes to the realm of gods, there will surely be a heartwarming scene of fatherly love and daughterly filial piety, after all, not long ago, Wang Dong'er received a sacrifice from her second uncle.

Unfortunately, Zhu Ziyang won't be able to see it. He still has ninety years left in the lower realm, so there's no rush to leave Douluo Continent so soon. Therefore, let's wish Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er success!

-

In the fifth year of the empire, Her Majesty the Empress issued an edict to move the capital. The former capital of the Sun Moon Empire, Mingdu, will become the secondary capital, and the new capital of the Great Ming Empire, Sun Moon City, will become the new center of the Douluo Continent, in a dual sense.

After the unification of the continent, Zhang Lexuan began to prepare for the construction of the new capital and the relocation of the capital. The new capital of the empire, Sun and Moon City, was located in the center of the continent, forming a triangle with Shrek City and Star Dou Great Forest.

In the same year, His Majesty the Emperor issued an edict to establish the Douluo Hall and the Hall of Offerings, responsible for managing the affairs of all Soul Masters in the world and the matters concerning the crowning of Title Douluo-level figures. The first Hall Master of the Douluo Hall and the Hall of Offerings was naturally Zhu Ziyang, and the subsequent Hall Masters were respectively the Emperor of the Empire and the strongest person in the Empire.

In the same year, the Eternal Spirit Tower was established as an official institution and organization by the Empire, and began to promote the Soul Spirit Law throughout the continent, while also beginning to further study the many possibilities of Soul Spirits.

At the same time, the Beast God Di Tian officially established the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts, aiming to protect all soul beast races and, incidentally, to cooperate with the promotion of soul spirits in the Eternal Spirit Tower.

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 gathering places of soul beasts on the continent were almost all controlled by the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts. Apart from some soul beast forests and oceans where soul beasts were artificially raised, other places were very unsafe.

It is worth mentioning that the position of Tower Master of the Eternal Spirit Tower will no longer be concurrently held by the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Origin Pavilion of Shrek Academy. Instead, it will be nominated by Shrek Academy, the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts, and the Hall of Offerings, and appointed by the Emperor. Furthermore, two Deputy Tower Masters will be added, forming a 2-1-1 structure involving the Empire, Shrek Academy, and the Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts.

The purpose of this move was clearly aimed at Shrek Academy, but the person who proposed this series of measures was none other than Zhu Ziyang, the head of Tianyuan Pavilion.

The reason for this is entirely because when Zhu Ziyang designed the Eternal Spirit Tower, he did not expect that the future emperor of the empire would become his own son and descendants.

He is human too, and it is perfectly understandable for him to plan for his descendants.

However, while Shrek Academy lost some of the benefits of the Eternal Spirit Tower, it gained the Empire's educational rights.

Shrek Academy's Cloud Sky Project and Tianyuan Academy Project were accepted and promoted by the Empire. Shrek Academy will gain the right to educate all primary soul master academies on the continent and priority enrollment qualifications. In other words, all primary soul master academies on the continent have actually become affiliated academies of Shrek Academy. At the same time, the Empire will also provide substantial educational funding every year.

In return, all Tianyuan Academy schools in regions other than Anyang City will need to revert to their original names. At the same time, all teachers at Shrek Academy will become imperial officials, and the appointment of the dean will need to be reported to the emperor to achieve a nominal hierarchical relationship.

The Empire does not allow a de facto enclave to exist within its borders, a point on which the higher-ups at Shrek Academy have no objection.

The right to awaken martial spirits at Tianyuan Academy was also revoked, but the Empire also reformed the martial spirit awakening system.

Originally, the awakening of martial spirits in the Sun Moon Empire was handled by the specially established Martial Spirit Division, but now it is handled by primary soul master academies in various places, and the start of each school year is the time for martial spirit awakening.

This means that the Empire actually shared the right to awaken martial souls with Shrek Academy, which can be considered a compromise. In response, Shrek Academy is required to assist the Empire in establishing primary soul master academies in all town-level areas of the continent and provide teaching staff.

As a result of these measures, Shrek Academy, though losing its former superior status, has truly become a sacred place for martial spirit education on the continent.

As for the former Martial Soul Division, it was expanded and transformed into the Martial Soul Hall, which collects information on all martial souls and soul beasts in the world, changing from a political institution to a cultural and historical institution.

-

Seven years into the Empire, Shrek Academy, Tianyuan Island.

Zhu Ziyang, who was teaching Zhu Yuhuang and Zhu Yuyue cultivation, suddenly looked up and saw that the originally bright sky suddenly darkened. Then, a blue meteor streaked across the sky, carrying vast divine power, and crashed into the vast Douluo Sea.

"Dad, what's wrong? Why is the sky overcast?" Zhu Yuyue tugged at Zhu Ziyang's sleeve and asked in confusion.

"It's alright, the weather will clear up soon," Zhu Ziyang said, patting his daughter's head to comfort her.

Sure enough, after the blue meteor disappeared, the sky cleared up again.

The people on the mainland did not pay much attention to this brief phenomenon. In this era of divine manifestation, what was such a phenomenon?

However, Zhu Ziyang knew clearly what was hidden behind this strange phenomenon, and the true nature of that blue meteor.

"Ziyang, did you see that?" Ma Xiaotao was the first to appear beside Zhu Ziyang, followed by Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi. All three women had serious expressions.

"Alright, don't be nervous," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, trying to reassure them. "This is a good thing; it means that Yuhao and the others are at least in the upper hand."

"Sigh! I really want to go up and take a look right now!" Ma Xiaotao sighed regretfully.

"Want to see how the Sea God was forced to relinquish his divine position? I'd like to too."

-

The ninety-first year of the empire.

Zhu Ziyang has decided to leave Douluo Continent and ascend to the God Realm.

He stood at the highest point in the sky, surrounded by five women: Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, Qian Lingyi, Zhang Lexuan, and Fifth Huan'er. His gaze lingered on the tiny Douluo Continent below, which was only the size of a palm, before he looked up into the unpredictable depths of space.

He took off the jade bracelet that had been with him for nearly a hundred years. It was a gift from his mother, Liang Ying. Unfortunately, neither of his parents wanted to go to the realm of gods with him, otherwise he wouldn't be so reluctant to part with it.

The emotions in his eyes gradually faded. He tossed the jade bracelet in his hand and murmured, "Old friend, perhaps we'll meet again someday!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Ziyang suddenly waved his hand and, amidst the puzzled gazes of the five women, threw the jade bracelet into the endless depths of space.

"Brother, what's wrong with you...?" Jiang Nannan asked in confusion.

"It's just saying goodbye to an old friend," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile.

An old friend, yes, isn't that library that has been with Zhu Ziyang for nearly a hundred years an old friend?

Now that he is leaving Douluo Continent, this library will naturally be returned to its rightful owner, or perhaps, await the next destined person.

"Let's go!" Zhu Ziyang said, casting aside his melancholy and turning around with a heroic air.

And then, see you in the realm of the gods!

The main story is over!
