After hearing AnBai's narration of her story, Wang Lei, with Feng Xue'er and Hong'er, who was sleeping in his hands, went towards the control room.

"Do you not want to go back to the Phoenix Empire?" Wang Lei asked Feng Xue'er.

Feng Xue'er shook her head, "Guild tournament is going to start soon; I will go with you, big brother." And said.

Since the Guild tournament was going to be held at Guild reserved place – she was going to leave Divine Phoenix Empire later to go there; going now won't change anything.

Wang Lei nodded and ejected everyone from the Primordial Profound Ark.

Others were bewildered as the previous record showed that it would be opened for an extended period, and not this short.

Wang Lei connected the <My World> energy to the Primordial Profound Ark, making it so that it can go anywhere as long as it is in <My World>.

Activating the ark, they vanished from the skies of the Divine Phoenix Empire, leaving them to their confusion and worried sick Hengkong behind.

"It vanished?" Confusion showed on the Dark Lord's face as they heard the message.

"What do you mean it vanished?! Did someone destroy it?" Another being said.

Of course, they were talking about Blue Pole Star that has vanished. They sent a person at Divine Sovereign Realm to destroy that planet and test 'that person', to see if he is real.

But to the attacker's surprise, when he reached that planet, it was gone. Yes, it just vanished with nothing left behind.

Hearing his story, Dark Lords were also confused. They have many spies all over the God Realm; if a planet was destroyed, even if it is a small planet, someone should have seen or heard about it.

But no such report came to them, making them confused.

"It must be that person. He must have known our involvement in that previous Darkness invasion, so he hid his planet." A being said.

"Now what?" another lord asked.

Everyone becomes quiet since no one knew what to do now.

A moment later, the Dark Lord sitting at the slightly higher throne, sighed. Everyone's attention diverted towards him. He was the strongest of them all, with a complete understanding of the Concept of Samsara and Reincarnation.

A red ruin kept flashing all over his body; most will not know its use, but for those who do, they will be scared shit since it indicated that he had removed himself from the Cycle of Karma – not something that anyone can do.

"Forget it. If the planet has been hidden by that person, even if we try, we will not be able to find it. Instead, we should think about the latest report on <Law of Nothingness>." He said.

Everyone becomes quiet after hearing him.

A lord said, "It seems that Brahma Monarch God Realm has a piece of it. interestingly, our intelligence has found out that they are also in the passion of one of the Heavenly Treasure, Primordial Seal of Life and Death."

A flash of greed passed in every lord's eyes, "Then we should get our hands on it! I have also heard that Dead Goddess of Brahma Monarch Realm is one of the two most beautiful women of God Realm." Lust flashed in this lord's eyes.

He was the youngest and most adventurous among the current six lords. He was known for his love for beautiful women. They could not show their selves in the open as Heaven would send tribulations on them as they left their hidden ground.

Other lords just shook their heads and did not comment on his ŀustful side.

"Two lords will go and get the piece of <Law of Nothingness> and Primordial Seal of Life and Death. Other things come later." Strongest lord said as he narrowed his eyes on the ŀustful lord.

Lustful lord shuddered to feel his gaze and nodded vehemently.

A place filled with verdant mountains, a pavilion stood. It was a simple pavilion, so simple that one could find it everywhere.

It was haggard and washed-out by many places, proving that it withstood the test of time.

But since it was placed between mountains filled with fresh air and different natural loving animals – it was peaceful here.

One could see an old man sitting on a rocking chair, resting. His pace was filled with whiskers – as he slept there peacefully.

SFX: Sound of broom cleaning the garden (A/N: I have no idea; what sound they make.)

She was as fair as snow with charming rosy lips and a delicate nose. Her face exuded a dazzling gentleness and softness. At this young age, she already exhibited such charm. Who can possibly imagine what sort of beauty she would be in the future?

She had natural-born bright eyes and white teeth, a compelling elegance, and a gentle, beautiful, and charming face. Especially her eyes, which, like pools of sparkling spring water, clear and transparent.

She silently cleaned the yard as to not disturbed the old man sleeping.

With her cleaning the yard – the picture that was being portrayed with her and nature was beyond breathtaking.

As she was cleaning the garden, her eyes hollowed out. To an outsider, it would feel like that she was spacing out, but only she knew that she was not.

The girl found herself standing in a void. There was nothing here. No time, No space; No life, No energy. The only thing present was 'nothingness'.

Seeing this 'nothingness' again, for who knows how many times, the girl said, "I am back, again." She mumbled to herself.

She has been spacing out, from time to time, since the time Darkness attacked this continent.

At first, she was scared and terrified. At one moment she was near her father – the old man – and the other moment, she was in this 'nothingness'.

Today too, she thought that it would be the same. Until she saw a white light shone in front of her.

She was surprised. In this 'nothingness', where nothing existed, a white light shone.

She focused on the light, thinking it might be the answer to this lose chase mystery.

Soon, the light shone brighter as it took the shape of a small girl.

She looked to be in her 15s. Straight white hair, grey eyes, beautiful silky smooth skin.

She wore white robes that covered her petite body.

"We finally met Lingxi." She said.

Confusion showed on Xiao Lingxi's face. She has never seen this girl before, but she felt that she was the closest to her.

Like a lost child meeting their mother – that what Lingxi felt.

"Who are you?" Lingxi asked. Her voice was smooth and clear, making one feel relax.

The girl looked at Lingxi and said, "I am you, and you are me."

Lingxi becomes puzzled. She felt that she knew what the girl meant; at the same time, she did not.

"What do you mean?" she asked, trying to clarify her doubts.

The girl looked at the confused Lingxi and shook her head, "You still have not gained your memory; you are too weak."

Lingxi becomes more confused but still listened to the girl.

"All I can do is give you some help. Once you are strong enough, you have to meet him. We have to complete the promise that we did to him, to our husband." The girl said. Her voice was filled with melancholy, so much that one would feel overwhelmed.

There was so much pain in her voice – unconscious to Lingxi, tears started to fall from her eyes.

She did not know who she was talking about. But she knew in her heart, she wanted to meet this person. Her whole being screamed to her to meet him.

Lingxi never felt this way for anyone. Neither for Yun Che, her 'cousin', or Xiao Li, her father.

She felt a hollow inside her heart, and only he could fill it.

She said unconsciously, "I will."

The girl hearing her smiled as she started to fade, but her voice remains for some time, "I will wait then, for the moment I – we met our husband, Wang Lei again." With the end of her sentence, Lingxi found herself back in the yard.

But something was different. It was Lingxi's eyes that were filled with conviction. "I have to meet him," she said as she went towards the pavilion and started to cultivate the profound technique left behind by the little girl.
