Chapter 1455 20.19 First Black Star - Face Revealed
The surge of the powerful darkness coming from the emperor's palace caused the whole capital to slowly be covered in the abyss. In the eyes of the mortal, it's like suddenly seeing the morning clear sky being tainted with a black abyss that spread with the imperial palace as its core. By the time w.a.n.g Xiajie approached the main palace, he saw the thick blackness that blocked his path.
This black mist or miasma had no effect on him, as it was something that had accompanied him upon birth. The miasma opened a path for the entrance of the G.o.d of Void and entered the main palace, looking for those he left behind inside.
THUD!
w.a.n.g Xiajie kicked the door to the room open, and he saw Zhi Yue hugging an unconscious Zhi Yang while trying to protect the fainted Yun Ming with them at the corner. At the center of the room was the man who looked so similar to Snow in his memories.
The long black hair that was pinched up on the head of the human emperor flows down on his back, which is now completely white as if its color had faded. His silver irises—one of them had turned obsidian as if it were tainted with a shade of darkness. The human emperor turned his head and looked at him with a flash of madness in his eyes.
"It's you! The one who made me like this!!!" shouted the human emperor as the imperial sword appeared within his hand. He glared at the G.o.d of Void with a fierce look and attacked him.
The G.o.d of Void was caught off guard by the blame that was thrown at his head. He might stare at this similar face, but without knowing whether this man is truly his wife's incarnation, there wouldn't be any gentleness in his actions. He grabbed the wrist that held the sword and twisted it. The sound of bones cracking was heard; at least w.a.n.g Xiajie didn't break the bone; instead, he dislocated it.
Crack!
Um!
Regardless of the pain in his wrist, the human emperor once again grabbed the sword with his other hand and slashed towards w.a.n.g Xiajie. It was an upward slash, and the speed was fast enough for the human emperor to graze the half-mask on his face. It was cut in half; the broken mask had revealed his face behind it.
The human emperor, who is on the verge of madness, was stunned when he saw his face, and his actions halted when he did.
"You…!!!"
The G.o.d of Void was merciless and twisted the other arm of the human emperor. He placed his free hand on the back of the human emperor, sucking away the excess darkness element in his body until he stabilized. It also lessened the percentage of his soul being tainted. An unknown pain spread in the body of the human emperor, making him scream as he finally fainted in the end.
He carried him with hesitation within his actions and placed him on the bed next door.
Afterwards, he checked on Zhi Yang and Yun Ming, whom he instantly treated and took away all the darkness in their bodies. It didn't take a while after they woke up; they felt a bit groggy from their sleep, but everything had returned to normal once they'd worked up completely. The two kneeled before the G.o.d of Void.
"Thank you for saving us, Milord!" said Warden Yun Ming and Zhi Yang.
w.a.n.g Xiajie just nodded his head and said, "There is no need to look for Ye Yan and Hei Suya. I found them already. It's just that most of their memories were extracted and it would take a long while before I can repair their memories."
"As for the ones who attacked you, I also met him. His body and face were covered in black cloth, and his voice is hoa.r.s.e, making it hard to recognize who he is. I don't think he will attack you for the second time, but keep your vigilance up just in case."
"Also, Zhi Yang, informed Lou Wuye of the situation. Tell him to investigate for the incarnation of Jing'er in the south region as well."
"Milord, do you not think that the human emperor is the incarnation of Lord Hei?" asked Zhi Yue.
w.a.n.g Xiajie said, "Keep him as one of the possible candidates. This world is quite big. Maybe he might not be his incarnation. Just keep an eye on him. I'm afraid I can't allow myself to be seen by him. He saw my face before he fainted."
"Also investigate the missing domain, lord."

"I've increased the power of my blessings on you four. At the very least, you will no longer faint when you get tainted by the abyss. Inform me right away if that man appears once more. He might be the mastermind of everything and the one who controlled the Ye Gui Race and all their past plans."
"We are going back, Yue."
"Yes, Milord!" said Zhi Yue and then he said his goodbyes with Zhi Yang and Warden Yun Ming
These two will remain in the mainland to investigate the missing domain lord and other possible candidates of Hei Anjing's incarnation in this world. As for him and his lord, they were to flee back to the borderland before Aunt Yan and Uncle Shu got worried with them being away for a few hours.

Near the South Region's Fortress...
Great General Lou Wuye was about to return to their territory and all along the journey, his soldiers noticed the heavy aura he was suddenly emitting. The reason for this is because of the emergency message from Zhi Yang.
But before he could turn back to the direction of the Imperial Palace, Zhi Yue had sent him a message saying that the Sovereign Lord would personally go over to treat his lover and Zhi Yang. After all, their injuries involve the energy of the darkness, which is something only an Evil G.o.d or a Demon G.o.d is capable of using.
"An Evil G.o.d capable of using darkness as proficient as the Lord?" General Lou Wuye mumbles, but only he can hear what he says.
A soldier approached him and asked, "General, it's time to leave."
They were actually resting in the middle of the journey when his bad mood finally faded when he got the message from his lover saying that he was alright. He didn't even notice that the corner of his lips were slightly upturned, that scared his soldiers a lot. After all, he is well known for his expressionless face and stern gaze.
"It's time to return," Lou Wuye glanced at his soldier with a face devoid of emotion and once again rode his horse.
The great general didn't expect that when he returned to the fortress, he would be welcomed by another problem that involved the cultivators. The vice commander had the two cultivators interrogated and retold everything to Great General Lou Wuye as soon as they got back to their own territory. They are now having a meeting about what should be done to the two cultivators that were caught.
The vice-commander said, "General, upon investigation, it seems that those two cultivators had descended from the floating island under the command of their sect. It's about that strange phenomenon when the sky had turned golden. The others are saying that the G.o.ds are descending. These two might be looking for that G.o.d that descends with that aureate sky."
"Those d.a.m.n cultivators are looking for G.o.ds again!? They are both obsessed with those in the divine, but treat mortals as ants!" a captain from the group said.
Another soldier added, "Did they think that one of those G.o.ds had fallen in our place? That's impossible! If there is one, there is no way it would continue to blend with the mortals. Aren't G.o.ds supposed to be much more arrogant than those cultivators?"
"That's right! That pair of G.o.ds before were beaten by the human emperor because of their arrogance. Anyway, they deserve it."
"But we cannot continue to keep them here; those from their sect would definitely send more down until they found what they were looking for."
"Isn't there a rumor about the three streaks of golden light that fell from the sky? Did one of them fall in our place?"
"The other two—one had fallen on the mainland, and the other is unknown."
"It would be good if the G.o.d that has fallen on our turf is a nice one."
The vice commander said, "Sit properly!"
"Yes!!!"
General Lou Wuye, who was silently listening to them, finally spoke up and said, "I want to ask a few more things to those cultivators. Bring them over here."
"Yes, General!" said the vice commander as he gestured for his subordinates to grab those two rude fools over.
The male and female cultivators looked more haggard now compared to their confident selves when they first arrived. In those last few days, they finally felt what being an ordinary mortal is like. The feeling of hunger, to the point that their stomachs were protesting beyond their control.
To sleep on the cold ground without any bedding to sleep on, as well as not taking a bath for days. They had almost gone crazy in the last 7 days. But the mortals were still kind enough to send them some food and water. Though not as extravagant as they usually eat, at least it was able to fill their stomachs.
When they finally saw the general, who had just gotten back, the two cultivators looked at him with a glowing eye. They thought this man would treat them differently than his cruel subordinates and started saying things that weren't pleasant to the ears.
"It's you! You must be their leader. You should have seen what those subordinates of yours did to us!"
"That's right! Not only were they locked up, they didn't feed us proper food. Do you mortals want to have war with our sects!?"
"Hm~, you better untie us now and I might forgive you for it."
The male and female cultivators were looking smug as they said these words for the vice-commander to hear. Obviously, even though they were a bit afraid of that mortal, at least their pride wouldn't allow him to casually lower themselves to the level of these people they were looking down upon.
In reality, their thoughts are:
'Hmp! As soon as this person removed the chains I will kill that vice-commander for offending me!'
'These ants! When I get freed, you will all need to get punished.'
The two were still waiting for the Great General to remove the chains on them and be treated as their former exalted self. Only when they met the cold eyes of the Great General did they realize they might have messed up even more than they were supposed to.
General Lou Wuye said, "Forgive? You are just prisoners. What is there for this great general to forgive?"
Under the cold and scornful gaze of the Great General, the two cultivators finally recognize who the man before them is. Among the fighters of the mortal realm, there is also a mortal with the t.i.tle of a Great General and this is a powerful mortal capable of killing cultivators like they are.
A trace of fear surfaced on the pale faces of the two cultivators as they looked at the Great General as if seeing a ghost.
"Y-you are... the great general of the mortals?"
"Impossible! Didn't they say that the great general was living in the imperial palace with the human emperor!?"
The great general Lou Wuye said, "That's the former human emperor. The dynasty had been long replaced. I am now a great general."
AAHHHHH!!!
He unhesitatingly cut off an ear of the cultivator with his spear. The scent of blood and a loud scream was heard in the place they were in.
General Wuye said, "Tell me what I want and I will make your death painless."
