The sky was clear and the moon was bright, the gentle night breeze carried a faint floral scent, pervading the air.
Qi Bei stood on top of a mountain, gazing into the distant and ethereal horizon. The fierce and aggressive aura that once emanated from him seems to have subsided completely, leaving him looking lost and bewildered, like a child who has lost his way and cannot find his way home.
“Qi Bei, what are you thinking about?” Suddenly, a fragrant wind blew, and a seductive and enchanting figure in a blue gown appeared in front of him, nestling into his arms.
Qi Bei doesn’t speak, he lifted her chin and kissed her, seemingly not wanting her to see his moment of weakness.
Yao Rao tiptoed and wrapped her jade arm around Qi Bei’s neck, kissing him passionately.
Suddenly, Qi Bei pushed her away and gazed at her with a burning gaze.
“Qi Bei, are you up to no good again?” Yao Rao giggled, stroking her hair with her jade hand, her alluring gaze and movements impossible to resist.
“Where did we first meet each other?” Qi Bei suddenly asked.
“Of course, it was in the Undead Mountain Range. How could you forget even that? It’s so heartbreaking,” Yao Rao pouted.
“So, when did we reunite after our separation?” Qi Bei asked again.
Yao Rao paused for a moment, and at that instant, her enchanting eyes lost their liveliness, as if she were a puppet.
“You don’t know? Why don’t I know either? Are you fake? Are you deceiving this Emperor?” Qi Bei’s killing intent surged forth suddenly as he glared fiercely at Yao Rao.
“No, of course not. What’s wrong with you? Don’t tell me you don’t even recognize me?” Yao Rao nervously replied.
Qi Bei’s hand trembled, and a black longsword appeared in his grip. His eyes flickered with a crazed light as he grimly said, “You’re all deceiving this Emperor, go to hell.”
His longsword thrust towards Yao Rao’s chest.
“Qi Bei…” Yao Rao’s desolate eyes gazed at him, filled with immeasurable sadness. The tip of the sword pierced an inch into her flesh, and blood instantly stained her clothes.
Qi Bei’s pupils contracted, and his heart suddenly convulsed violently, as if the sword had stabbed his own heart, causing an agonizing pain.
“Ah…” He roared madly, forcefully pulling out the longsword, and his figure disappeared into the air.
….
After experiencing a period of what seemed like a split personality, Qi Bei gradually seemed to find himself.
The Holy Emperor began to change, and everyone noticed this transformation.
The cold and cruel Holy Emperor no longer randomly executed people. He started to become gentle and amiable, occasionally letting out hearty laughter.
The Holy Emperor no longer slaughtered cities at will. He began to care for his subjects and issued one benevolent decree after another.
His women no longer lived in fear because he no longer treated them as tools for his desires. He actively got to know each woman, whether they were initially with him or forcibly taken by him later on.
As a result, the harem resounded with laughter and joy every day. Those women who once hated him started to fall in love with him after his transformation.
Qi Bei lived a very happy life. It seemed like he had found his direction, dispelling all the confusion. He began to enjoy this kind of life.
Everything became incredibly beautiful. There was no more killing or war in this world. Everyone lived in abundance and happiness.
This world became a paradise! A paradise built by Qi Bei.
…..
On a mountain peak at the other end of the Dragon Phoenix Valley, six people gathered, including Yao Rao’s master, Yu Qinghao, the crazy elder, Leng Gu, and a woman who looked breathtakingly beautiful, her fiery robe concealing her specific age.
In addition, there was a person completely enveloped in a snowy white robe, their gender concealed by the ethereal garment.
“Now, everyone, please take out your tokens.” The mysterious person in the white robe, whose voice could not be distinguished as male or female, said.
The five others each took out a blue pearl and handed them over to the white-robed mysterious person. This person took out a unique compass-like object and embedded the five blue pearls into it.
Suddenly, the compass emitted a beam of light, and the space distorted and formed a portal. The five people were excited and entered the portal one after another.
Once inside the portal, they appeared in a transparent and void space. They floated there like they were weightless, surrounded by silence except for their gentle breathing.
Just then, scenes began to appear in the void, with divine palaces and figures appearing and causing the heavens and earth to quake with a single gesture.
The five were mesmerized by what they saw, as if they were able to gain some understanding from these scenes.
However, they did not notice that a faint blue light began to flicker in their eyes as they believed they were gaining more knowledge from these scenes.
But every time they thought they had gained more understanding, the deep blue light grew stronger.
…..
Qi Bei strolled through the streets of West Spirit City, which used to be a chaotic place, but now his reputation had made it a holy land. The city had expanded more than ten times its original size, and it was the world’s first city without poverty.
The sun was warm and cozy, making Qi Bei feel like he was floating.
Suddenly, a girl in a green dress floated into Qi Bei’s field of vision. She seemed radiant with life, resembling a mystical being capable of causing upheaval and chaos. The girl walked calmly among the bustling crowd, but no one could even touch the corner of her clothes.
In that moment, Qi Bei felt like everything around him became blurry, and he could only see the girl’s presence.
“It feels so familiar,” Qi Bei murmured to himself, feeling like he had seen the girl somewhere before. However, no matter how hard he tried to remember, he couldn’t recall forgetting such a beautiful woman.
“I want to have her,” Qi Bei’s possessiveness suddenly became strong. His curiosity and admiration for her had instantly increased by a thousandfold.
He approached the girl, and his first thought was to kidnap her. But he quickly suppressed the thought and smiled. However, the girl walked past him, and he, like everyone else, couldn’t even touch the corner of her clothes.
Anger rose within Qi Bei, and he turned around, feeling violent.
Just then, the girl suddenly smiled sweetly and ran towards a young man who had a smile on his face. In the moment their hands clasped, Qi Bei felt a buzzing in his head, and his eyes filled with a cold killing intent.
“That’s my woman. I’m going to kill him,” Qi Bei’s face was twisted in anger as he rushed forward, waving his hand and smashing the young man’s head. Blood splattered on the girl’s body, and after a moment of stunned silence, she screamed and clawed at Qi Bei.
Qi Bei grabbed the girl’s hand, a cruel smile playing on his lips as he said in a low voice, “You belong to this Emperor now.”
“You will never have my heart, you devil. I’ll kill you,” the girl shouted, tears streaming down her face.
“I like it when women hate me, haha,” Qi Bei laughed. After he spoke, he suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
The girl closed her mouth and stared at him with hatred.
Qi Bei grabbed her and flew into a nearby household. He instantly killed more than ten people inside.
He threw the girl on the ground, pouncing on her and tearing her clothes apart, revealing her white and tender body.
“You have my body, but you’ll never have my heart,” the girl said coldly.
“All this Emperor needs is your body,” Qi Bei’s eyes wandered obsessively over the girl’s figure, but his words were so bloody and cold.
The girl closed her eyes and sighed softly, “If that’s the case, then come and take it.”
After the girl spoke those words, Qi Bei suddenly felt a void in his heart. He realized he needed the girl’s heart to fill the emptiness within him.
“Give me your heart, or else…”
“Or else you’ll kill me? Even if you slaughter the entire West Spirit City, you will still never have my heart.”
“Then this Emperor will slaughter the entire city!” Qi Bei roared and charged out.
With a wave of his hand, countless sword lights shot out, and houses collapsed one after another. Countless people were torn to shreds in an instant. Qi Bei seemed to have gone mad and turned the thriving West Spirit City into a bloody hell in the blink of an eye.
The once bustling city was now in ruins, and Qi Bei stood in the center of it all, watching the blood flow everywhere. His heart trembled again, as if there was still a soul inside him screaming and roaring.
Just then, the girl appeared before Qi Bei, completely naked.
“You destroyed the entire city and killed millions of people just to try and get my heart…”
Qi Bei looked at the girl, his eyes flashing.
“But even so, you will never have my heart,” the girl said calmly.
Suddenly, Qi Bei’s mind buzzed with an intense sensation, and it seemed as though a hard shell inside him had cracked.
There are always some things in this world that you desire but cannot obtain, even if your desire is strong enough to destroy the entire world.
The hellish scenery around him quickly receded as if he had entered an empty tunnel, and the beautiful figure of the girl slowly faded away.
“Huh…” Qi Bei got up in a hurry and found himself in his giant bed. The beautiful women around him looked at him with concern.
Was it a dream?
Qi Bei glanced at the women around him. They were all his women, with peerless beauty. They adored him and were willing to do anything for him.
He got out of bed and walked back to the balcony of his castle, overlooking the world that belonged to him.
“What’s wrong?” A soft body hugged Qi Bei from behind and asked coquettishly. it was Yao Rao.
Qi Bei turned around and suddenly pushed away Yao Rao, then closed his eyes.
After a long while, he opened his eyes again. His gaze was completely different from before, clear and bright.
Qi Bei smiled, but it was not the bloody and cold smile, but a brilliant one like warm sunshine, full of infectious power.
“This is the world I have always dreamed of, the world I longed for deep in my heart. But this is not my world, and I am not the real me. And you are not the real you either,” Qi Bei said with a relieved expression.
As if sensing something, Yao Rao exclaimed in fear, “Qi Bei, are you leaving us?”
But Qi Bei just smiled faintly and said, “Fairy, we will meet again in the real world. You said we have fate, and I believe in our destiny, but not in this illusory world.”
People need ambition, motivation, and drive.
However, if a person is controlled by ambition, becoming a slave to it, then they are not called human, but worse than beasts. He had already done something worse than beasts in this illusory world, and he didn’t want to do it again.
“I’m going back, let this filthy world go to hell!” Qi Bei suddenly roared.
The whole world began to collapse, and the women were twisted and screaming as they reached out to Qi Bei. Piece by piece, like puzzle pieces, they turned into a pile of scattered pictures and fell into the darkness.
At this moment, in the vortex of the blue magma at the center of the earth, the translucent old man suddenly let out a scream of despair.
“No, how could he control his ambition? How could he break free from the illusory world?” The old man couldn’t believe it and shouted.
“Hahaha, he has control over ambition, you have lost, and the cost of losing is to vanish into thin air.” The golden dragon shadow laughed wildly.
“You were originally a God of ambition in the Nine layers of the Netherworld. Since you can’t control him, he will control ambition and you will become the stepping stone for him to become stronger. It’s funny that all your efforts over the millennia have come to nothing, but have actually helped another.” The silver-purple phoenix shadow also giggled.
But at this moment, the old man suddenly became calm and laughed with a hoarse voice, “The old man wanted to use him to condense the first thousand seeds of ambition, merge them into one, and create the body of ambition to break free from your bindings. In a way, I gave him a chance, and he took it. I have no regrets. On the contrary, I will fulfill him.”
Just then, Qi Bei’s figure appeared out of nowhere above the magma vortex.
The old man waved his hands, and the floating nine hundred and ninety nine blue lights suddenly merged into one and rushed into Qi Bei’s forehead.
“Hahaha, I will use these seeds of ambition to transform into his divine foundation. When he becomes a god, it will also benefit our Nine layer dark faction. I am not wrong to lose.” The old man laughed proudly as his semi-transparent figure gradually disappeared.
The golden dragon and the silver-purple phoenix avatars remained silent, looking at Qi Bei’s figure.
Just then, the Dragon Seal on Qi Bei’s palm suddenly began to flash with dazzling golden light, and his dragon power trembled, seeming to suppress the seed.
“Divine Dragon bloodline!” The golden dragon and the silver-purple phoenix exclaimed in unison.
“Haha, it’s ridiculous that the old man wanted to bring him into the dark faction. With such a pure dragon bloodline, does he still need the seeds of ambition as his divine foundation? Since we are also about to disappear, I have decided to lend him a hand.” The golden dragon avatar laughed loudly and suddenly turned into a golden light, rushing into Qi Bei’s Dragon Seal.
The sky was clear and the moon was bright, the gentle night breeze carried a faint floral scent, pervading the air.
Qi Bei stood on top of a mountain, gazing into the distant and ethereal horizon. The fierce and aggressive aura that once emanated from him seems to have subsided completely, leaving him looking lost and bewildered, like a child who has lost his way and cannot find his way home.
“Qi Bei, what are you thinking about?” Suddenly, a fragrant wind blew, and a seductive and enchanting figure in a blue gown appeared in front of him, nestling into his arms.

“So, when did we reunite after our separation?” Qi Bei asked again.
Yao Rao paused for a moment, and at that instant, her enchanting eyes lost their liveliness, as if she were a puppet.
“You don’t know? Why don’t I know either? Are you fake? Are you deceiving this Emperor?” Qi Bei’s killing intent surged forth suddenly as he glared fiercely at Yao Rao.
“No, of course not. What’s wrong with you? Don’t tell me you don’t even recognize me?” Yao Rao nervously replied.
Qi Bei’s hand trembled, and a black longsword appeared in his grip. His eyes flickered with a crazed light as he grimly said, “You’re all deceiving this Emperor, go to hell.”
His longsword thrust towards Yao Rao’s chest.
“Qi Bei…” Yao Rao’s desolate eyes gazed at him, filled with immeasurable sadness. The tip of the sword pierced an inch into her flesh, and blood instantly stained her clothes.
Qi Bei’s pupils contracted, and his heart suddenly convulsed violently, as if the sword had stabbed his own heart, causing an agonizing pain.
“Ah…” He roared madly, forcefully pulling out the longsword, and his figure disappeared into the air.
