After he heard Ning Wan’ge’s words, Wang Lin’s eyes narrowed. He did not say much, just a simple, “Lead the way.”

Ning Wan’ge performed a spell incantation and then, a ray of white light shot out from her hands. The white light flew into the void far away and appeared to have disappeared.

However, Ning Wan’ge had already broken into the void and flew in the direction of the white light. Wang Lin and E Shen followed tightly behind her.

On the way there, Ning Wan’ge turned to look at E Shen and asked in a low voice, “How is Big Luo?”

E Shen replied in a low voice, “While his injuries appeared to have stabilized, they are still severe. He was hurt not just by his enemies, but also because of his own doing. It is not a pleasant scene.”

He did not say much, but Ning Wan’ge could sense Big Luo’s overall situation. When she heard it, she sighed and said, “It’s because of me. I caused Big Luo to be injured.”

Wang Lin said calmly, “And me too.”

Then, he looked at Ning Wan’ge and said, “Can we talk now, what is going on?”

Ning Wan’ge looked at Big Luo and said properly, “Out of safety considerations, we should try and send Big Luo back to the Greater World first.”

Wang Lin’s face turned dark. He said nothing but instead, continued to stare at Ning Wan’ge. Ning Wan’ge added, “I lost my memory because of the skeletal altar in the world just now. Now, I have regained my lost memories, but…”

Ning Wan’ge took a deep breath in and her gaze turned serious as she said, “However, I can feel that the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage too had regained her lost memories too!”

“At this moment, it is very likely that she is going to the same place as us. If we go by there, it is not safe.”

“Earlier, because of your fight, the Middle World collapsed and hence, the ceremony was affected. We could have gone to our destination directly, but now our location is rather far from the final destination. After all, the Void Battleground is unstable and the impact of any change in it will be magnified greatly.”

Ning Wan’ge’s gaze turned deep as she said, “After the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage obtains the news, I am afraid that she will enter the Void Battleground too. If we cannot be certain about her location, it is hard to say who will be closer and who will be further from the final destination.”

Wang Lin did not step, but he asked lightly, “Where are we going?”

Ning Wan’ge’s lips twitched as she replied in a low voice, “Many years ago, the Hades Emperor occupied a mysterious Outer Realm, which was connected to the Void Battleground. The location is hard to locate. There, the Hades Emperor made some plans for his entry into the Spirit Sea. With the help of Big Luo and the Heavenly Oyster’s Golden Pearl, it can help someone enter the Spirit Sea.”

“However, those items are only half-finished. They are incomplete. In the last War of the Two Worlds, the Hades Emperor left them in the Outer Realm.”

Ning Wan’ge looked into the distance. As she flew, she continued, “However, after a short period of preparation and cultivation, they can be used in combat. The impact is similar to the items he left for Big Luo.”

Wang Lin turned his head to look at Ning Wan’ge. The incident in the Spirit Sea, as well as his background, were all kept secret from Ning Wan’ge. As Big Luo and Ning Wan’ge had traveled together, it was not surprising that she knew some stuff about Big Luo. However, she could not know so many details about his life.

The fact that Ning Wan’ge knew all these are proof that she had regained her memories.

“You are indeed the person the Hades Emperor left behind to guide Big Luo, just as master had said.”

Ning Wan’ge nodded her head. She had a lost expression on her face. “Strictly speaking, I am not.”

Wang Lin then asked, “What is the relationship between you and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage? Who is the original, and who is the avatar?”

Ning Wan’ge fell silent and then said, “Actually, I am her and she is me.”

“Now, I am no longer her, and she is no longer me.”

She turned her head to look at Wang Lin, and then Big Luo, who was under E Shen’s protection. Her expression was complex. “My master is Big Luo’s mother, the wife of the Hades Emperor, the Hades Empress.”

“I used to be human. When we were young, both our parents died, and we were hurt by our nemesis. Our physical bodies were destroyed, and even our souls were scattered. My master managed to save me, but because my injuries were too serious, I could have been said to be dead. Just a bit of my remnant soul managed to remain intact.”

Ning Wan’ge’s eyes were like a deep hole. Her gaze seemed to be on the other bank of the river of time.

“My master used a special method to save my life, and allow me to come back to life. From the brink of death, I managed to turn my Fate around. However, I cannot be said the fully human anymore. To be precise, I am half-demon.”

When Wang Lin heard that, his expression darkened. “Half-demon?”

Ning Wan’ge replied, “Correct half-demon. With my master’s special spells, as well as with her own powers, she was able to use the essence of a human cultivator to help me re-form my soul and physical body. I am the half-demon she produced.”

“Just now, in the Black and Red World, the skeletal altar there was where I was reborn. Earlier, the Outer Realm I found with Big Luo was another residence of my master. Many years ago, after my first rebirth, I lived there.”

Wang Lin looked at her and asked, “The first rebirth?”

Ning Wan’ge smiled and said, “Strictly speaking, my second rebirth is there too.”

“Master Lin’s predictions were correct. After the fall of the Hades Emperor, the Hades Tribe hid away and stayed in the Greater World to take charge of the Hades Emperor’s affairs. They helped Big Luo to reincarnate as a member of the Hades Tribe, and to open the Spirit Sea. The person in charge of taking control of the Spirit Sea afterward is me.”

Ning Wan’ge’s tone became as light as air as she continued, “My existence is only known by a few members of the Hades Tribe. Furthermore, they do not know the extent of my powers, nor do they know about my master’s involvement.”

“Because of this, in the last War of the Two Worlds, no one realized that I was a secret chess piece of the Hades Emperor.”

“I did not cut myself off from the rest of the world, but instead, I have kept a low profile most of the time. I follow the final orders of the Hades Emperor and my master and wait patiently for Big Luo’s reincarnation. That is the day I act… That was the plan.”

Ning Wan’ge sighed, “However, around 600 years ago, something happened to my body. The Hades Emperor did not expect it, nor did my master. I myself did not even expect it.”

“This may be a side-effect from the ceremony. 500 years after the last War of the Two Worlds, my body has been wracked by many odd occurrences. Even as an Undying Demon Soul Third Level demon, my soul became unstable.

As Ning Wan’ge reminisced about the past, it was clear that her Undying Demon Soul started to split into two separate consciousness.

After almost a hundred years of attempting to ignore it, she was still unable to resolve the issue. Hence, she was forced to re-enter the Black and Red World. Then, with the skeletal remain and the altar, she attempted to carry out the ceremony all those years ago to help her stabilize her soul.

Who knew that the impact of the ceremony was completely inversed? Not only did her soul not stabilize, her two consciousness split apart. In the end, one human soul formed and one demon soul formed.

What was stranger was the fact that her body changed too? Her own flesh and blood, which were combined with the human cultivator’s Immortal Soul’s essence, combined with the human soul to form an Immortal Soul Stage human. However, on the other hand, another part of her flesh and blood combined with her demon soul. Its Divine True Original Spirit Pattern turned into veins and blood, and a demon was formed.

These two bodies were sent out of the Black and Red World. In the final moment, even the black crystal left behind by Jiang Shaoyang, the former leader of the Ancient Satanic Sect, was destroyed as well.

The moment the crystal was destroyed, Ning Wan’ge lost her memories of everything that had happened beforehand. She only regained 4000 years of memory in one day.

Ning Wan’ge continued, “I am the human, and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage is the demon.”

When E Shen heard that, a look of surprise crossed his face. “However, 4000 years ago was when the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage started to establish a name for herself. And you, you quickly made a name for yourself too. When the two of you split, were you already an Undying Demon Soul Third Level demon and an Immortal Soul Third Level Human?”

“If that’s the case, can we not make two powerful cultivators with just one?”

Ning Wan’ge shook her head and said, “When master saved me, she did not use a single treasure. To find one of them is impossible, much less gather every single one of them.”

When Wang Lin heard that, he thought about it for a while and then said, “It’s not easy to think about, and also very unbelievable. However, if parts of the Ancient Satanic Heart Curse were left behind, then it is not entirely impossible. But right now, I can’t find a reason for it.”

Ning Wan’ge smiled bitterly and said, “Neither can I. If I can, that event may not even happen. Master is indeed more capable than I.”

Wang Lin’s gaze fell onto her and stared at her quietly. Then, he said, “If not for that change all those years ago, the Hades Tribe would have regained control of the Spirit Sea and returned to the Greater World much earlier.”

Ning Wan’ge smiled slightly and said, “I understand what you mean. However, to me now, I prefer the situation right now. If not that change all those years ago, Mo Yunzi, the disciple of the Hades Empress, would naturally take control of master’s and Hades Emperor’s last wishes.”

She paused for a while and the continued, “I cannot be certain about what the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage will do in light of this knowledge.”

“We are not each other’s avatars. Even after we regain our memories, we aren’t telepathically connected. We cannot find out what each other is thinking, but just now, when I regained my memories, I felt her regaining hers too.”
