Chapter 1047: The King of Chaos\' Visit

The king of keys asked, "Aren\'t you tempted?"

The king of chaos replied, "Do you think I should be?"

The king of keys shook his head. "If you did, you wouldn\'t be that strongest king we all admire."

"You\'ve gone down the wrong path."

The king of keys frowned. "What\'s wrong with it? Doesn\'t it make me more like an ordinary lifeform, greedy as can be?"

"And yet you aren\'t a lifeform."

The king of keys countered, "What is a lifeform, then?"

The king of chaos replied, "You were planning this from the very beginning, when you accepted the bet."

The king of keys shook his head. "The Zongming world did very well, and I\'m simply going with the flow."

The king of chaos replied, "You gave a great deal of superior world\'s energy to the Zongming king in order to stoke the flames of this feud. All the parties participating in it will suffer some degree of loss—and when you betray them all at the very end, you\'ll be the overall winner of this conflict."

The king of keys smiled. "I have to thank you for your help. You allowed Zhang Lie to claim such a precious treasure—you must have been anticipating something like this too, surely."

The king of chaos replied, "I\'m not as twisted as you are."

The king of keys laughed. "You\'re the one who distorted the three thousand worlds in the first place. Who do you think it was?that shattered these worlds? And you claim not to be twisted—ha!"

The king of chaos was unruffled. "I\'m just being myself. That\'s how I was in the past, and how I\'ll be in the future.

As I stated in the meeting, this is a present for Zhang Lie. I certainly take responsibility for the state of the three thousand worlds—but so what?"

It was hardly a crime to shatter the worlds—or rather, no one would dare to call the king of chaos out on it.

"You never cared for the treasure these other idiots are bickering with each other for like clowns. You\'re playing the long game."

The king of chaos cleanly distinguished the king of keys from the other superior kings.

The king of keys smirked. "You understand me very well, king of chaos. What do I care for, then?"

The king of chaos hypothesized, "Pretending to be greedy in an attempt to seize everything, just like what you think a living being should be like. Is it interesting?"

The image of the lolified king of keys slowly crumbled away, leaving behind an innocent, artless smile. "I want to become a real living being, and this is the first step toward it."

"But you aren\'t a living being."

The king of keys asked, "How can you be so certain?"

"Because I\'m standing within the door."

"But you\'re not me!"

"I\'m ahead of you."

"But you\'re not me!"

The king of chaos shook his head in exasperation. "You shouldn\'t be developing such strong feelings toward emulating life.

Indeed, emulating life to a certain extent will help you push past the doorframe, but to truly walk within, you\'ll have to grow out of, rather than fall deeper into, this ill-conceived notion."

If Zhang Lie were here, he would understand the king of chaos\' words immediately. Emulation could only get the king of keys so far—in the end, he would have to manifest the root of his being in order to grow further.

The king of keys replied seriously, "You might be right, but I may not be wrong."

The king of chaos seemed to understand the king of keys\' thoughts.

"You\'re still emulating living beings—their envy, their suspicions."

The king of keys countered, "Why don\'t you think that these are my true thoughts?"

The king of chaos sighed. "Because you\'re pretending to be a living being, you think that I\'m trying to make it hard for others to catch up to me, but you\'re mistaken. It\'s boring being alone at the top, and I\'d love to see someone else make it here. Unfortunately, I\'m already beyond what this realm can support, beyond what you\'re chasing after. My life is simply too difficult..."

The king of keys replied seriously, "I\'ll continue taking steps forward. Sooner or later, I\'ll catch up to you."

The king of chaos replied, "It\'s rare that such interesting life has spawned. Don\'t get too cocky and lose to them."

The king of keys laughed. "What can they do?"

They were nothing but a group of lower-class lifeforms. Could they compare to his might? The king of keys laughed. Even if he were to handicap himself, he couldn\'t conceive of anyone but the king of chaos defeating him.

The king of chaos shook his head. "You seem to be neglecting one particular person."

"Who?"

"Zhang Lie!"

"You really like that lad, don\'t you?"

"You\'ll see why..."

"I\'m looking forward to it."

The projection of the lolified king of keys shattered into starlight, and he vanished through a dimensional portal.

The king of chaos sighed. His own projection split down the middle like parchment being torn, leaving nothing behind in this special world.

Back in the dimensional wormhole leading back to the Zongming world, Zhang Lie gave Li Zongming a thumbs up. "Excellent work. Your departure was very strong."

Li Zongming sighed. "It was exhilarating in the heat of the moment, but I\'m worried those superior kings won\'t give up."

Zhang Lie shrugged. "We can deal with whatever tricks they try to pull against us. There\'s no need to worry."

Li Zongming tossed the crystal of the world\'s energy to Zhang Lie.

Zhang Lie widened his eyes. The crystal was something that even the superior kings of antiquity eyed greedily, and Zhang Lie hastily caught it. "What are you doing?"

"This is for you."

"What?!"

Li Zongming replied, "You were the one who killed the death spirit king. By right, it should belong to you."

Zhang Lie didn\'t accept the gift immediately. "This is a priceless treasure to you, and it might well allow you and the Zongming world to grow much stronger."

Li Zongming smiled. "I already obtained a lot during that meeting."

Zhang Lie, for once, was at a loss for words. Ultimately, he accepted the treasure.

Potion #5, for disaster limit fragments, would need large quantities of a superior world\'s energy. Zhang Lie thought that it would take him quite some time to gather enough, but here it was.

This radiant gemstone possessed ten portions of world\'s energy beyond that of a superior world. If it were used as an ingredient, how strong would the resulting Potions #5 be?

As the two of them emerged from the dimensional wormhole, Li Zongming\'s face suddenly changed.

He could sense a particularly strong aura coming from within the Zongming world, one on the level of a superior king. Even more astoundingly, it came from his palace.

Zhang Lie\'s expression likewise changed—though unlike Li Zongming\'s befuddlement, his was more of surprise. He knew just whose aura this was.

Li Zongming\'s face turned serious. "Let\'s go have a look."

Within Li Zongming\'s palace was a gorgeous beauty wearing a long black dress, with golden-blonde hair, red eyes, and a fan covering the rest of her face. She was enjoying Li Zongming\'s tea.

The girl raised her head. "You guys arrived later than I expected. I had a few cups of tea by now."

Li Zongming was very surprised upon seeing the young woman, whereas Zhang Lie seemed to have expected her.

Li Zongming asked, "King of chaos, haven\'t we just seen each other? May I ask why you\'ve come?"
