"Go on then," he gurgled through shattered teeth. "Do it. Kill your master."
Meng Yao looked down at him. Her hands were shaking. Her ribs were screaming. She

CHAPTER 162: THE FIRST BREATH
"The universe took its first breath. And it screamed." Chen Mo felt it before he saw it. A tremor. A pulse. A life that had not existed a moment before. "It's alive," Meng Yao whispered. "It's alive." They stood at the edge of creation, their hands intertwined, their eyes fixed on the vast expanse before them. Stars were being born. Planets were forming. Galaxies were spinning into existence. "It's beautiful," she said. "It's terrifying." --- The first star ignited. It was small. Fragile. Perfect. It burned with a light that had never existed before. It burned with a heat that had never been felt. "It's ours," Chen Mo said. "It's ours." --- They watched as the star grew. It consumed the dust around it. It pulled in the gas. It became larger. Brighter. More powe
CHAPTER 161: THE NEW GENESIS
"The void fought back. Not with claws. Not with hunger. With fear."Chen Mo felt it before he saw it. A tremor. A resistance. A desperate, clawing need to remain what it had always been."What's happening?" Meng Yao asked."It's fighting us.""Who?""The void. It doesn't want to change."---They stood together in the heart of nothing.Around them, the first stars were dying. The galaxies they had created were collapsing. The light was fading."You're hurting it," Chen Mo said."I'm not trying to.""You're changing it. Changing is hurting."---The void spoke.It was no longer a child. No longer gentle. It was something else. Something desperate."Stop," it said. "Stop changing me.""We have to.""Who says?""We do."---Meng Yao stepped forward.She reached out. She touched the void. It
CHAPTER 160: THE VOID EMBRACE
"The void did not want to be saved. It wanted to be understood." Chen Mo stood in the heart of the Devourer, his scales black, his eyes empty, his heart cold. Meng Yao was beside him, her hand in his, her smile warm. And around them, the void pulsed with ancient hunger. "You don't trust me," he said. "No," the Devourer answered. "I don't." "Why?" "Because you're mortal. You're fleeting. You're temporary." "I'm not mortal anymore." "You're still fleeting. You're still temporary. You'll fade. You'll die. You'll leave." --- Chen Mo stepped forward. The void surged around him. Not attacking. Testing. Probing. "I won't leave." "You will." "I won't." "You'll get bored. You'll ge
CHAPTER 159: THE CHOICE OF THE DRAGON
"Forever was a long time. And Chen Mo had never been good at staying still."He stood in the garden, his scales black, his eyes empty, his heart cold. Meng Yao was beside him, her hand in his, her smile warm. The Devourer was everywhere, watching, waiting, hoping.And Chen Mo was trapped."You're quiet," Meng Yao said."I'm thinking.""About what?""About everything."---She squeezed his hand.Her grip was warm. Steady. Strong. But it wasn't the same. Nothing was the same."You're not happy," she said."I'm happy.""You're lying.""I'm not.""You're lying. I can feel it."---He pulled away.He walked to the edge of the garden. The void stretched beyond, endless and cold and empty."What do you want from me?" he asked."I want you to stay.""Why?""Because I love you.""That's
CHAPTER 158:THE HEART OF THE VOID
"The heart of the void was not darkness. It was light. And that was the most terrifying thing of all." Chen Mo stepped through the garden, his scales black, his eyes empty, his heart cold. He had destroyed everything. He had killed everyone. And he didn't care. He only cared about her. "Yao," he whispered. "Yao, where are you?" The garden answered with silence. --- He found her at the center. She was sitting on a throne of crystal and shadow. Her gray eyes were bright. Her smile was warm. Her body was no longer fading. She was whole. "Mo," she said. "You came." "I'll always come." "I know." --- He stopped. Something was wrong. Something was different. She wasn't the woman he remembered. She wasn't broken. She wasn't dying. She wasn't his. "You're
CHAPTER 157: THE AWAKENING
"The garden was not empty. Someone else was there."Meng Yao stood in the center of the crystal flowers, her gray eyes fixed on a figure she had never seen before. He was tall. Ancient. His body was covered in golden scales. His eyes burned with amber fire."The First Sovereign," she breathed."Yes.""You're... you're him.""I am what remains of him."---He stepped closer.His presence was overwhelming. Suffocating. Absolute. But it was also gentle. Almost tender."I've been waiting for you," he said."For how long?""For a thousand years."---Meng Yao's heart pounded.She had heard the stories. The founder of the Primordial Bloodline. The one who started everything. The one who cursed her love."Why?" she asked. "Why did you curse us?""I didn't curse you. I tried to save you.""Save us?""The Devourer. It was
