Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After returning to the Consecrator Residence and exchanging places with his physical clone, Bai Qiuran lay on the bed and fell asleep. The night passed uneventfully. In the morning of the next day, when the sky was slightly bright, two high priests of the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Realm walked in and brought him to the courtyard of the Consecrator Residence.

There were also many other children in the courtyard. Bai Qiuran counted and found that there were exactly 100 boys, 100 girls, a total of 200 children.

He did not know where those officials had found so many children. He could only say that under the pressure of the Emperor and the imperial preceptor, these fellows, who usually lazed around, had become really efficient.

After staying in the courtyard for a while, the first-class consecrator, Sima Yingbo, appeared in front of the children with the other consecrators. This young and handsome consecrator explained to these children their respective standing positions in the Heaven Worship Ceremony in a pleasant manner and also instructed them not to run around. After getting the consecrators to watch carefully, he instructed everyone to set off for the Imperial Mausoleum .

After walking out of the consecration residence, a row of carriages had long been lined up on the road in front of the consecration residence. There were also the cavalry of the Profound Heaven Country accompanying them. 200 boys and girls were brought onto the carriages by the consecrators. Then, the impressive-looking line-up rushed to the Imperial Mausoleum in advance before the emperor.

According to the rules, the emperor of the Profound Heaven Country had to set off at about seven in the morning and arrive at the Imperial Tombs at nine. The Consecrator Residence had to prepare the children and sacrifices before that.

Under the command of the first-class consecrator, Sima Yingbo, the 200 boys and girls formed a strange shape in the front row of the altar, perfectly matching a certain array formation of the demon Blood God Sect.

Not only that, but there were also hidden array formations to restrain these children and prevent them from running around.

During the arrangement, Bai Qiuran had been paying attention to Sima Yingbo’s expression. After seeing that he did not seem to be controlled, Bai Qiuran understood.

Therefore, when the first-class consecrator instructed him and the other boys and girls to stand on the array core with a pleasant expression, he pretended to be innocent and asked, “Uncle Consecrator, why are we standing like this? I think the other uncles are all lined up in two rows beside the main road.”

As he spoke, he tried his best to make his expression even more childish and cute as he looked up at Sima Yingbo.

“Uh…”

A trace of hesitation seemed to flash across Sima Yingbo’s face. Then, he revealed a friendly smile and patted Bai Qiuran’s head as he smiled.

“I don’t know either. This is all a standing method passed down by the higher-ups. We have to listen to them.”

“Even Uncle has to listen to them?”

Bai Qiuran continued to ask, “Is it the Emperor or the Imperial preceptor who passed it down?”

“Done.”

Sima Yingbo avoided the question and pushed Bai Qiuran to a designated spot.

“Don’t speak later. The ceremony will be over soon.”

Bai Qiuran pretended to be obedient and stood still. He turned around and sneered.

Since he felt guilty, why did he have to agree to doing such a thing back then?

He narrowed his eyes and saw a few consecrators looking at him. He restrained his expression and focused on waiting for the Heaven Worship Ceremony to begin.

…

As the sun rose into the sky, the emperor’s team finally arrived.

From afar, the team outside the Imperial Mausoleum had bright yellow tents and flags. The line-up was very long and stretched for two to three kilometers.

As the eldest princess, Tang Ruowei was also inside. At this moment, she was with her younger brother, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace of the Profound Heaven Nation, standing beside the Emperor of the Profound Heaven Country. She followed the Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor to the Imperial Tombs.

The Eldest Princess’s expression was solemn today and her eyes flickered. She did not seem to be in a good mood and seemed to be planning and worried about something. She followed the Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor of the Profound Heaven Country and circled around the array formed by the boys and girls under Sima Yingbo’s lead and arrived at the altar.

A dark cloud floated over and covered a portion of the sunlight, making the sky somewhat gloomy. However, Profound Heaven Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor did not care and continued to go on stage.

Arriving at the prepared altar, the Imperial Preceptor lit three incense sticks. The green smoke was faint, and the Emperor turned to face the officials and soldiers under the altar.

“Ever since the founding of the country, my country has already experienced 1,200 years. Emperor Meng’s spirit in the heavens has protected the luck of my country and allowed it to prosper until now. Now that the Profound Heaven Country has been wrecked by demons and the people have suffered, I simply feel miserable. After all, as the emperor, I treat the people as my own children. Seeing them like this, it’s as if I am watching my own sons being devoured by demons. Therefore, I will go to the mausoleum to worship the heavens today. I hope that the ancestors in the heavens will bless Profound Heaven Country for thousands of years and allow it to prosper for hundreds of generations.”

After saying this, the emperor stopped talking for the time being. He received the three incense sticks from the Imperial Preceptor and bowed to the Imperial Mausoleum . Then, he inserted them into the cauldron in front of the Imperial Mausoleum .

“Now, the worship ceremony begins. I announce…”

Profound Heaven Emperor suddenly paused strangely and continued, “Soldiers, take the blood of 200 boys and girls and respectfully invite our ancestor to leave the tomb!”

“Take the blood and comfort the ancestor.”

At this moment, the Imperial Preceptor also echoed,

“I, Fu Qianqiu, respectfully invite… the late emperor to leave the tomb!”

“Wait!”

Tang Ruowei, who was standing at the side, said in surprise, “Father, Imperial Preceptor, what are you talking about?!”

However, no one paid attention to her. Tang Ruowei looked around and discovered that her father, the Imperial Preceptor, her brother, and the generals, soldiers, and officials below the stage all had a dazed look.

“What’s going on?”

“Your Highness, please calm down.”

At this moment, the first-class consecrator Sima Yingbo walked onto the altar with a group of consecrators and arrived in front of the Imperial Mausoleum .

“The Heaven Worship Ceremony is about to begin. Please meet your ancestor.”

“Sima Yingbo?”

Tang Ruowei was shocked and furious.

“You!”

Sima Yingbo ignored her and bowed to the Imperial Mausoleum with the other consecrators.

“Disciple and the others welcome Master to leave the mausoleum!”

“Master, please leave the mausoleum!”

As soon as he finished speaking, dark clouds surged in the sky and completely blocked the sunlight. A purple lightning struck from the sky and directly slashed the Imperial Mausoleum in half.

A bloody mist that was visible to the naked eye surged out of the crack in the Imperial Mausoleum . Then, amid a wild laugh, a figure in a black robe walked out of the Imperial Mausoleum .

“Profound Heaven! I’m back!”

This figure walked out of the blood fog and arrived outside the tomb. It was actually a young and evil black-haired youth. He paced to the middle of the two rows of offerings.

Sima Yingbo and the other consecrators lowered their heads even more, while Tang Ruowei looked at this young man and was stunned on the spot.

“Ancestor…”

She compared the portrait she had seen in the ancestral hall and swallowed before saying with difficulty, “Martial Emperor Tang Wanxie.”

“That’s right, my child.”

The young man sneered.

“Are you happy to see me?”

Tang Ruowei lowered her head and did not speak. Tang Wanxie smiled even more happily.

However, he did not know that among the 200 boys and girls below, there was a little boy who was smiling even more brightly than him.

“Yes, of course.”

Bai Qiuran lowered his head and smiled as he muttered to himself,

“I’ve finally caught you, demon.”
