Xiao Tian remained silent, sitting cross-legged in stillness. His eyes stared blankly at the ceiling, but his thoughts moved sharply and calmly. Beneath that outer calm, there was a quiet yet unstoppable motion within. “My poor father…” The thought didn’t come as a voice, nor as a complaint. It was a vibration within his soul, echoing in the silence of his own awareness. No one could hear it, except himself—fully conscious of every painful memory and every truth he could no longer deny. “You tried so hard to guard this universe from foreign invasions, yet you failed to manage the Clan you led. Too focused on distant stars, but blind to the cracked roots beneath your own feet. Thinking big is admirable—but neglecting the small things can be more dangerous than the external threats you always feared.” There was no anger. No resentment. What remained was a stillness that came from understanding. Xiao Tian no longer blamed. He no longer hated. Instead, he felt pity. His father had giv

In the sky, far beyond the reach of that space, Xiaoxiao sat cross-legged in the silence of the universe. Her face looked calm, yet her inner eye was open—watching everything that unfolded below. “Little brother, I didn’t expect you to be this bold—even daring enough to sneak into a room filled with Immortal Gods... and even a God King. Your formation technique is truly remarkable. A seemingly insignificant Semi-Deity managing to set a formation undetectable even to a God King. This is a great achievement—even in ancient times, only one person could do that,” Xiaoxiao murmured with a faint smile, before closing her eyes again and resuming her cultivation. “Perhaps it was just my imagination,” the masked man finally said, his tone lighter now—yet still cold. He turned his gaze back to the Holy Elder and the other Grand Elders. His eyes were sharp—like blades piercing directly into their consciousness. No one dared to meet that gaze. Even the oldest among them chose to bow their h

Goye swallowed hard, his tongue nearly stiff, then tried to take a deep breath to steady his erratic heartbeat. Silence hung in the air like the calm before a storm. It took several breaths before he finally spoke—soft but clear. “Holy Elder, the headquarters of the Black Desert organization was attacked... everyone there was slaughtered. Even the leader couldn’t escape the disaster.” WHOOSSHH!!! Just as Goye finished speaking, a loud sound tore through the air, and a vortex of space appeared in the center of the room. It wasn’t just a disturbance in energy—but a real tear in the dimension. Dark light blurred around it, swirling like a vortex of death that devoured the world, and then a rip appeared in midair—like a curtain forcefully pulled open by an unmatched force. From within the rift, someone stepped out. He didn’t leap or float—he simply appeared, as if real and unreal at the same time. The figure wore a long, dark robe and a mask that completely covered his face. No

Several other men nodded slowly. They said nothing, but their body language showed agreement. Their faces revealed tension they had long kept hidden. Even if they didn’t speak openly, the concern mentioned by the bald man was clearly shared by all. “No, Xiao Tian didn’t use his Clan to retaliate against the Patriarch. He actually left the Xiao Clan just a few days after arriving. According to reports, Xiao Tian didn’t even take a single treasure from the Xiao Clan’s vault.” The Holy Elder paused briefly before continuing his words. The steam rising from the teacup before him seemed to freeze, not daring to interrupt. “You don’t need to worry about that. Though the Xiao Clan is powerful—led by the strongest person across the eight Galaxies—they are a sick clan, not healthy like the others.” The bald man nodded. He understood. Everyone in the room understood what the Holy Elder meant, but none dared repeat it. Those were words that could only come from someone at the level of th

Several formation flags began to be placed throughout Xiao Tian’s room. Although he was only at the Semi-Deity realm, his mastery over formation techniques could not be underestimated—even by Immortal Gods. The flags were not only positioned at the four corners of the room, but also on the ceiling, beneath the floor, and even in a hidden spot near the window. He lifted part of the floorboard using a special seal that could only be sensed by high-level soul perception, then inserted a small flag etched with runes. Every placement was precise—there was not a single gap. The room transformed. No breeze came through the window cracks, no sound entered from outside—only a silence that felt sculpted from the void. After finishing the placement of the formation flags, Xiao Tian began forming hand seals. The flags glowed faintly, enveloping his entire room. The light was so dim it couldn’t be seen by ordinary eyes, but the power radiating from it penetrated the dimensions of space and time.

After gathering everything, Xiao Tian dispelled the Heavenly Thunder Dome. The lightning gradually faded. The sky returned to calm, but the void it left behind made everything feel even more silent than before. That silence brought no peace—it lingered like an invisible terror. The world was still scorched, and the ground still bore the scars of energy that had nearly destroyed everything. But he didn’t leave right away. His gaze lifted toward the sky, as if he were looking at shadows of a future yet to come. “I didn’t expect the Black Desert organization to have a leader in the God King realm, let alone a protector in the Celestial God King realm. That level of power already rivals a mid-tier sect in the core of the Divine Lightning Fire Galaxy. Right now, let alone confronting a God King—even an Immortal God or a rank-12 True Deity is still beyond me. Especially if they have combat abilities that defy the heavens—I could be defeated by a rank-twelve True Deity.” His words didn’t
