Chapter 381: Chapter 379: Parting Gift

In the blink of an eye,

Wei Tianyang had already arrived above Yin Country’s Prosperous City.

The massive black figure, holding a huge metallic construct, appeared before everyone.

He floated in the sky, looking down upon the vast city.

He still remembered the first time he arrived in Fengrao by train.

It was truly a massive city; he had jumped down from the well-like structure at night, feeling like he was falling for a long time.

But now, the city seemed tiny and fragile in his eyes.

The vehicles and pedestrians on the streets had come to a halt because of his arrival, and all their phone cameras were pointed at him.

Wei Tianyang slowly floated above Lingxiao Palace, and Zhao Ling and Venerable Xu, with a large crowd, all ran out to look up at him.

He placed the massive chamber on the glass dome, only to see white, snowflake-like cracks appear on its surface.

Then, he flew to the palace’s landing pad, placed the chamber there, and returned to his normal posture.

Zhao Ling ran up behind him like a gust of wind, struggling in front of everyone to control her impulse to embrace Wei Tianyang, maintaining the dignity befitting an Emperor.

"Is it all done?" Zhao Ling asked somewhat impatiently.

"Not one of them remains," Wei Tianyang nodded and said.

Saying this, he turned to look at the chamber behind him and continued, "This is all of their assets: Black Medicine, technology, and perhaps it still holds leverage over other countries... You could use it to do some good things."

"I... I want to... I want to thank you," Zhao Ling said.

"You’ve taken care of me for a long time," Wei Tianyang said meaningfully.

Zhao Ling’s heart sank, feeling that something was off about Wei Tianyang. She forced a smile and said, "What are you talking about? We have many days ahead of us."

Wei Tianyang smiled and looked at the people behind Zhao Ling, then at her, and said, "There is no meaning here that I seek."

"There must be, we... can find it together," Zhao Ling quickly said.

"No, this world, perhaps, does not have the meaning I seek... I can’t find the answer," Wei Tianyang said.

"You’re leaving?" Zhao Ling finally asked.

Wei Tianyang nodded and said, "I need to calm myself down, I can feel that I am losing control."

He lifted his right hand to look at it and then touched his forehead.

"I am becoming more like Him day by day," Wei Tianyang said.

"You’ve always been you, Wei Tianyang," Zhao Ling’s voice trembled.

"I’ve lost a greater meaning, Zhao Ling. I must find it; otherwise, I will lose myself," Wei Tianyang said.

"I won’t let you get lost, trust me... Please don’t go, I..." Zhao Ling took a step forward, wanting to hug Wei Tianyang.

But Wei Tianyang turned aside, sighing.

"You now have the reason to be a true ruler. You no longer need me," Wei Tianyang said.

With that, he phased into objective reality and vanished without a trace.

Zhao Ling stood there stunned, and the crowd, tens of meters away, hadn’t heard the content of the conversation, only saw Wei Tianyang disappear, thinking it was a normal occurrence.

Zhao Ling suddenly turned back and roared, "Go find him! Quick!!"

Hearing the Emperor’s command, everyone sprang into action. Black government vehicles darted through Fengrao City, as if to turn the entire city upside down.

Venerable Xu and Zhao Ling drove together to the red courtyard. On the way, Venerable Xu did not forget to inform Zhao Ling about Venerable Qin’s condition.

"She’s badly hurt and has been taken to the hospital. How much do you think she was involved in the whole affair?" asked Venerable Xu.

Zhao Ling, who was frantic and agitated, replied, "I don’t have time to worry about that old hag. Her support has completely crumbled. If she dares to make trouble, I’ll chop her down. Right now, the most important thing is to find Wei Tianyang!"

"What’s the matter with Wei Tianyang? Everything seemed fine between you two before, so why has it suddenly...?" Venerable Xu inquired.

"I don’t know! Perhaps it was Steijie, Helena Mina, or someone else who said something to him, his mind has been disturbed. I will convince him... I must keep him," Zhao Ling said.

"If it really doesn’t work out, then let him go," said Venerable Xu, speaking earnestly.

"No, no, no! No way! Absolutely not!" Zhao Ling began to become hysterical.

Venerable Xu shook his head, gently patted Zhao Ling on the back, as Zhao Ling covered her face, her eyes reddening.

"The Lingxian Sect has been obliterated, and our worries from behind are completely removed. The remaining reactionary forces are just minnows and shrimps; we can handle them on our own. Zhao Ling... in the end, we must rely on ourselves," said Venerable Xu.

Holding back her emotions, Zhao Ling said, "I can’t let him go... how can you ask me to let go of him? For a hundred years, everyone seemed like an enemy, I’ve had to be on guard around everyone, but only he was so pure. I can’t let him go... I just can’t..."

"You need to get used to it... You know that to become a king requires a reason, but you also understand, becoming a king requires paying a price," Venerable Xu said.

Finally, the car arrived at the red courtyard. Zhao Ling immediately got out of the car and rushed into the loft. Hurling herself upstairs, she saw the room quiet and Yaha nowhere in sight.

She grabbed a servant standing at the door, "Go look! Find a black sheep in the courtyard! Hurry!!"

Subsequently, hundreds of Inner Guards and servants began a sweep search through the courtyard, but no matter what, they couldn’t find the black goat.

Zhao Ling sat on a bed in a third-floor room, at a loss for what to do, she could only embrace the blanket that had covered him and stare blankly. Venerable Xu stood by the door, saw the approaching servant come to report, and gestured for them to go back downstairs.

The pain had been inevitable; Venerable Xu leaned against the door frame, pulled out a cigarette for himself, lit it, and after a drag, he looked up at the ceiling.

Meanwhile.

Wei Tianyang had appeared in a small apartment in Eltoya, Heisai State, located in Felda, with Yaha.

The room was somewhat cramped and the air a bit stuffy, and it was the middle of the night in Heisai State. Yaha seemed restless and uncomfortable.

"We’re only staying here temporarily, Yaha. Don’t be angry," Wei Tianyang placated.

He then pointed to Baphomet, nesting beside the table, "Look, big black is also here."

Yaha walked over, curling up on Baphomet, stroking its horns and belly, seeking inner peace.

"What do you plan to do next?" queried Baphomet.

Wei Tianyang went to the window and cracked it open a bit; the warm night breeze that flowed in was refreshing.

He smiled, "I want to... take a break, give myself some free time, to read, to observe the world..."

"Is that really what you think?" Baphomet asked.

"I’ve seen too many terrible things, political conspiracies, and deceits, bloodshed, and violence on battlefields... I believe there’s more to this world than that. Look, people on the streets, what kind of lives are they leading? That’s what I used to pursue and now I no longer know. I must go and find the meaning of ’existence’ for myself," Wei Tianyang said.

"Lives... That too is a meaning concocted by people," commented Baphomet.

"But they do exist. Baphomet, I’m seriously considering the ’absolute meaning’ you talked about. ’Existence’ is indeed important, but how do we define ’existence’? You fell from the sky, while I, live on the land. I believe, you and I will never be the same. I want to go and find the meaning of ’existence’ for myself," said Wei Tianyang.

"I hope you won’t be disappointed this time," Baphomet replied.

"Steijie has done many good things for the Sethiyan Federation, Zhao Ling no longer has any worries holding her back, I have done what I could. There is a force, it always wants to do evil, yet is forever bringing forth good; I am simply one part of it," said Wei Tianyang.
