Chapter 2311: Set Oneself Free (3)

?

Que Zang's pupils shrank when he read the last sentence. The original speculation that the God of Order had left the Primal Chaos was no longer the only possibility.

However, Que Zang didn't quite understand that if something had truly happened to the God of Order, how could the Scholar God be ignorant about it? Unless... Something had happened to him as well!

Several questions arose in Que Zang's mind, causing his heart to become restless. It was an entirely different matter between leaving on their own and being eliminated behind closed doors.

"Who could they be?" Que Zang was puzzled. As far as he knew, the God of Order's strength was exceptionally high among the Primordial Gods. He also held absolute power over any True Gods in the Primal Chaos. It was hard to believe that he had been killed.

Que Zang looked at the diary and continued to read.

"Today, I will pay my visit to the God of Order again. However, I have a foreboding feeling in my heart. Perhaps something will happen to me. If that's the case, no one will help my Junior Brother." Mu Zang's handwriting was a bit heavy. Clearly, he was troubled by concerns.

"Senior Brother..." Que Zang was moved. Even though Mu Zang knew he might encounter a mishap, he was still worried about him.

"I bid farewell to Master and pleaded with him to take care of my Junior Brother when he returns... Que Zang, if you read this, I hope you can set yourself free from all the worries. I don't want to see you suffer again."

Que Zang closed his eyes, and tears fell down again. "How could I do that, Senior Brother? You know very well that I must avenge you. Otherwise, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life," he muttered to himself.

Seeing there was no more content left, Que Zang meticulously put the diary back into the chest and placed it in its original location. His eyes became determined as he walked out.

The shadow of his brother's sacrifice loomed large, casting a long and somber shadow over his path. Yet, it also illuminated a clear direction, a purpose that transcended his personal quest for vengeance.

With the diary tucked securely away, a newfound determination ignited in Que Zang's eyes. Mu Zang's revelations had set his heart ablaze, fueled by a potent mix of grief and resolve. The shadow of his brother's sacrifice loomed large, casting a long and somber shadow over his path. Yet, it also illuminated a clear direction, a purpose that transcended his personal quest for vengeance.

He emerged from the abode, his steps firm and purposeful, his demeanor a far cry from the tormented figure who had entered moments earlier. Master Tianxin awaited him, his gaze filled with a mixture of concern and understanding.

"Have you found what you were looking for, Que Zang?" he inquired gently.

Que Zang nodded, his voice thick with emotion. "Senior Brother's diary...it revealed much." Master Tianxin said calmly. "The path ahead is fraught with peril, Que Zang. Tread carefully." "I will, Master," Que Zang replied, his voice unwavering. "But I cannot turn back now. I owe it to Senior Brother."

Master Tianxin smiled and clasped his hands together. "Mu Zang would be proud of you, Que Zang. Go forth, and may the Buddha's light guide your steps."

Que Zang knelt before his master, his forehead touching the ground in a final act of reverence. "Thank you, Master. For everything."

He rose, his gaze resolute. "Farewell, Master. I will not fail."

With a final bow, Que Zang turned and strode away, leaving behind the tranquility of the Divine Temple.

Master Tianxin watched as his youngest disciple disappeared from his sight and closed his eyes. "The world is a battlefield of chaos, but within each of us lies the power to cultivate peace." He spoke to himself.

Somewhere deep in the Holy Lands, Yin Ye bowed his head deeply to a man in a black robe. The residual power of the Great Law of Death within his body had been temporarily sealed, and his injury was gradually recovering.

"Thank you for saving my life, Master," he said with utmost respect.

The black-robed man sat on a jade throne that emitted starlight. His face was concealed behind the black mist.

"What is your evaluation of him?" he asked. His voice carried an absolute authority that no one dared to challenge.

"Yun Lintian's raw strength and mastery over the laws are impeccable. I can feel that he has concealed many things. However, he is not without a flaw. His character is too soft despite the ruthless outlook he puts on. He cares too much about the people around him." Yin Ye replied truthfully.

The black-robed man remained silent for a moment and said. "Han Lou is dead... That person is coming."

Yin Ye was shocked upon hearing this. He remembered Han Lou went to capture Yun Wuhan. How did he die?

However, he didn't dare to say anything and remained silent.

The black-robed man waved his hand and said. "Go ahead. Do what I told you."

"Yes, Master. I shall take my leave now." Yin Ye responded readily and disappeared from the place.

The black-robed man tapped his finger on the jade armrest as he spoke to himself. "Interesting... First, it's Yun Lintian, and now both of you. It seems you two have never given up... Heh. Whatever you come up with, I will crush it like I did every time."

He got up and waved his hand. A hidden passage immediately appeared on the wall behind the throne.

The black-robed man walked along the passage, his footsteps echoed throughout the space. Soon, he arrived in a spacious hall. At the center of the hall, the figure of a man could be seen tied by meteoric chains imbued with an otherworldly aura. His face was ghastly pale, and his eyes were unfocused.

"Xu Ke," The black-robed man said calmly as he stared at the chained man. "I have good news to tell you. It seems someone has finally noticed your abnormal absence from the world.

Are you happy?"

The man, Xu Ke, regained his focus. He looked up at the black-robed man and said coldly. "Nian Shi, you will never win."

"Really?" The black-robed man, Nian Shi, said with a hint of amusement. "So far, none of you could stop me."

"Someone will," Xu Ke uttered coldly. "Your power of time is not omnipotent."

The two of them were none other than the God of Order and the God of Time!
