After the battle, Wang Wei was sitting on his Dragon Throne with a pensive look on his face. After a few minutes, he said, "What do you think?"

After a brief silence, Li Jun opened his mouth. "Something seemed wrong."

​​

Everyone then looked at him, so he further elaborated, "This guy Feng Heng seemed very weak for a Heaven Chosen."

"Weak?" asked Dong Lifen, as she did not totally agree. In her opinion, the only reason that the battle ended so quickly was because of his majesty' strength.

"Not weak per se," Li Jun tried to find the right words to express his feeling. "More like he could not use all his strength. It was as if it was difficult to control his power.

Wang Wei nodded in agreement. After seeing this, Yan Liling then asked, "Big brother Wang Wei, did you think of something?"

"Yes, I just find this guy very suspicious," he replied.

"Because of the Yin-Yang Eyes?"

"Yes."

"Why would he hide such a thing?" asked Yan Liling with a confused look on her face. In fact, not just her, but everyone in the room who knew the importance of such a powerful physique had the same question.

"Do you all remember what happened when Heavenly Dao acknowledged my physique and the Heavenly Physique List appeared, what was the name after the Yin-Yang Eyes?"

"I remember that there were a bunch of question marks instead of a name," replied Li Jun with one arm crossed and another on his chin.

Wang Wei nodded before continuing:

"At that time, many people believed that it showed that the Yin-Yang Eyes did not appear in this generation, but what if that was not the case."

Everyone--except Dong Lifen--had a frown on their face, contemplating the meaning of these words.

"Young Master, are you saying that the Yin-Yang Eyes appeared in this generation, however there were some complications in the process? And that Feng Heng knows something about it?" asked Wang Ju, who was always very astute when it came to analyzing information.

Wang Wei nodded in acknowledgment, an act which did not disperse the frown on everyone's face.

If that was true, it meant that all the top 6 Physiques in the Heavenly List appeared, making this Glorious Age even more turbulent. Not to mention what kind of secrets that this Heaven Chosen of the Taiyi Profound Gate was hiding.

Meanwhile, back in the Great Shu Dynasty, Feng Heng used some secret methods to return on the same day after the battle. Even his injuries were partially healed.

After entering his temple, he activated all the formation inside to isolate from the outside. Then, he started to freak out.

"Master, master, master, come out!" said Feng Heng in a rushed voice. Soon after, Shi Fuyu's Primordial Spirit appeared in front of him.

"Master, do you think he knows the truth?"

"Disciple, you need to calm down."

"But master, he clearly noticed something wrong."

Shi Fuyu sighed before saying, "I warned you not to use the power of your eyes in front of this Wang Wei, but you did not listen."

"I had no choice, otherwise, I would not even be able to even touch even once during the fight. What's more, it was you who told me to agree to his last condition."

"If you did not agree, he would have become even more suspicious of you. Based on what happened in the Secret Realm, you can see how cunning this Wang Wei actually is."

Feng Heng clutched his fist, then he started walking back and forth in the room while muttering, "We are screwed...We are screwed. People will find out what we did, and the sect might even instantly kill us."

Shi Fuyu looked at the state of his disciple, then he patted his shoulder. Suddenly, Feng Heng sensed something traveling throughout his mind, then he returned to his calm mood.

Feng Heng sighed in relief, while Shi Fuyu asked, "Have you calmed down now?"

"Yes."

"That's good. Do you still have it with you?"

Feng Heng nodded before taking out something from his body. However, that thing was covered by formation. After making a bunch of signs with his hand, the formation was lifted.

There lied, a human body that had a look of horror on its face--despite the fact its two eye sockets were actually empty. What is worse is the fact that this child looks nothing but a 5 year old boy.

Both Shi Fuyu and Feng Heng looked at the body, however their reactions were different,

Feng Heng's body trembled slightly after seeing it, and a look of regret could be seen in his eyes. However, his master just looked at the body with indifference.

Shi Fuyu then said, "In order to properly get the Yin-Yang Eyes as a physique, just taking the eyes is not enough. We need to find a way to swallow both the soul and source blood of the true owner. By then, no one will be able to tell the difference, and all the evidence will also be destroyed."

"So, all you have to do until then is to actually deny that you have any relationship with the Yin-Yang Eyes."

Feng Heng was silent for a few seconds before taking a deep breath. Since he had already done so much, there is no turning back for him. He will bear this sin for the rest of his life as it was his decision to make--no matter the consequences.

Furthermore, as long as he can become a Great Emperor, who dares speak ill about his actions?

After thinking about this, Feng Heng suddenly felt that his mind became more clear, then his peaceful mood turned into an indifferent one. Just now, his state of mind has reached a higher level.

Shi Fuyu noticed his disciple's change, then he nodded in satisfaction. Even without a special physique, his disciple's talent can be ranked top notch, and there was a reason he was chosen.

Meanwhile, back in the Great Xia, while dealing with all the affairs of his territory, Wang Wei was planning another expedition. This time it was to the Southern Region, and he was leading it personally.

The reason for doing this was one because he wanted more habitats for his people to live in, so taking control of the territory of the demonic beasts--that is full of resources--is the perfect place.

Secondly, and the most important reason, was because he did not trust the demonic beast left in that area. Wang Wei always asked himself why Liu Meixiu actually left so many demonic beasts alive in the Southern Region after leaving the trial.

However, he could not think of the reason. So, he decided to kill all of them so he did not have to worry about it again in the future.

Under the leadership of Wang Wei, the Great Xia army started to ravage all the demonic beasts in the Southern Region, and Wang Wei was always at the head of the attacks.

He used his True Will ability to destroy the cultivation levels of all the demonic beasts in a large area, then these beasts were taken and stored for his future plan.

Wang Wei used the [Wind Calamity] attack, thus ravaging all the demonic beasts in a few hundred miles radius.

While watching all the cut up corpses of these demonic beasts, he started to think to himself:

'Am I being too harsh in killing all these demonic beasts? After all, they are still living beings and part of the natural flow of nature, so why should I kill all of them? Just because of my suspicions of Liu Meixiu? My method seems too radical and maybe I…"

"Wait a minute," suddenly muttered Wang Wei out loud. "Since when did I start to question myself like that? As a person who seeks to be free and unfettered, I should be able to do anything I please, whenever I please. I should have the freedom to base my actions solely based on my desires, so why would I care about the balance of Heaven and Earth by killing a few demonic beasts? Even if their number is in the millions?"

After saying this, Wang Wei suddenly felt a veil uplifted from his mind, making his thinking more clear.

Despite this positive benefit, Wang Wei was not happy which was evident by the frown on his face. He realized that a Heart Demon had just attacked him.

Technically speaking, this was an impossible thing to happen as Heart Demons only occurred to Primordial Spirit Cultivators that have to go through Heart Tribulation.

What's worse was the fact that Wang Wei knew that this was not the first time that this had happened to him.

The first time he suffered from Heart Demon was when he first killed a person when he was a mortal. Back then, according to normal situations, after all he had gone through in the Pagoda Trial, he should have only suffered from discomfort after killing someone. However, he had nightmares for days instead.

The first time that such a thing happened, Wang Wei might have considered it as a rare thing, but twice showed that something is wrong, so he started thinking of the reason for this to happen to him.
