Chapter 1157 Conclusion
1157 Conclusion
Wang Chang looked at the woman before him. She was exactly as he always dreamt - beautiful, quiet, peaceful, naturally noble, and a slight aura of indifference. She did not see him as she was too busy mixing medicine, probably for an upcoming patient. He looked at her longingly for a few seconds before making his presence known.
"You scared me." She was calm despite saying these words. No, she was too calm for someone. "Why are you standing here like a buffoon? Come help me." For the first time in his life, Wang Chang did not listen to her. Instead, he walked next to her and started caressing her face.
"Is something wrong?" Mao Yue asked, stopping her actions to look him in the eyes.
"No."
"Then, why are you acting so strange?"
"I just miss you."
"Although it's only been less than ten minutes since we saw each other, I miss you too," she replied as she touched his hands on her face. "However, we have work to do - lives to save. So, let's leave the affection for when the clinic is closed."
Wang Chang chuckled, "That is something she would say."
"Pardon me?"
"You look so perfect, even indistinguishable. From her face, aura, mannerisms, and state of mind - you are a perfect replica."
"Now, you're worrying me," Mao Yue claimed. "Are you sure nothing happened? Are you sick? No, you're a cultivator, so that should not be the issue. Please, talk to me."
"What a wonderful illusion."
"Chang'er." It was Mao Yue's turn to caress his face. "No matter what happens, our family can deal with it."
"It's a shame that this place could not remove the pain I felt when I lost her," Wang Chang shook his head.
"Think about Tian'er," Mao Yue swiftly said. "Don't do anything to break our family apart - especially after going through all this trouble to reunite. Stay here with me, and everything will be fine."
Yang Chen swiftly stood up, ignoring how much blood he was coughing or how many liters of the thing he had already lost. He was trying his best to recuperate with plenty of wood and water energy, but the Willpower inside his body was not permitting such a thing.
'I can no longer hesitate.' He activated his final trump card - a red orb with cloud symbols. His aura rapidly increased, along with the killing intent in his eyes. He was now on a war path, and no one could stop him.
"As always, you're stupid and can't even realize this," Yang Chen sneered. "Do you think you escaped from me back then because you made a wise choice? I allowed you to escape out of fear and respect for the Dao Opening Sect."
His aura had reached a scary level.
"But now, things are different. I am the one with the high background."
Wang Chang was calm during this sudden change. He summoned a talisman from his space ring and activated it. A seal materialized above the dark sky, and immediately afterward, Yang Chen's aura rapidly decreased - returning to the state before summoning the orb artifact.
"What the hell did you do?"
"You see, I have a very clever grandson," Wang Chang replied calmly. "He predicted that the greatest trump card someone like you can access is an Empyrean Artifact acquired through your servitude to one of these parasites. So, he gave me something to ensure our battles remain fair."
Yang Chen's body trembled due to the overwhelming emotions coursing through every fiber of his being.
"Do you want to hear what else he said?" Wang Chang continued. "He said he doubted you were capable enough to exchange for such an artifact. Now, I'm curious what you did for them to reward you so highly?"
Yang Chen did not answer as blood dripped from both corners of his mouth. It even looked like his eyes were about to start bleeding.
"Not answering? Well, I guess it doesn't matter." Wang Chang exhaled deeply before clenching his fist, feeling every muscle in his body. As he punched forward, Wang Chang felt his spirit extremely concentrated, allowing him to throw the best punch of his life.
A golden dragon descended from the heavens before releasing a roar that made the void tremble and crack. The dragon rushed toward Yang Chen, who still defended himself despite the desperate situation. The orb artifact floated before him to release a red shield. Sadly, this was useless.
The dragon tore apart his shield before dispersing his body particle by particle before targeting his soul. The dragon weakened Yang Chen's soul to the weakest state before sealing the small part into a crystal. Wang Chang was surprisingly calm as he became the final victor.
He sat cross-legged in the void, entering a deep state of meditation. His wrathful, powerful, and domineering aura rapidly became peaceful and calm. His aura first fused with his surroundings before turning similar to an ordinary or mortal.
The last flaw in Wang Chang's Dao Heart healed, and his state of mind was perfected and sublimated. He opened his clear eyes and muttered: "It's time for a new adventure."
