Wei Zong frowned and thought for a while, he seemed a little distressed.
Because of his future plans, he may have to disappear for a while.
so……
For the time being, I have to say goodbye to familiar people so that they won't be too surprised.
Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if an acquaintance wanted to find me.
Wei Zong tilted his head, and an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of a person.
"Well……"
"Otherwise, let's go back to the battlefield outside the territory first!"
As soon as he left, Wei Zong's figure slowly disappeared from the place.
About a quarter of an hour later.
The battlefield outside the territory, in Emperor Wu's city.
Wei Zong arrived at the door of Emperor Wu's small courtyard and opened the door. This time, to his surprise, Qiu Wanqing and the Prince of Blood Sea, whom he had not seen for a long time, were also there.
Seeing Wei Zong suddenly push the door in, Emperor Wu was not surprised, but Prince Xuehai and Qiu Wanqing were both a little surprised.
"Weizong, long time no see..."
Qiu Wanqing smiled and looked in the direction of Wei Zong. However, after seeing the aura on Wei Zong's body, her pupils shrank slightly and she said in shock: "Wei Zong... you... have actually broken through to the third step.
Got it!"
After hearing her words, the Blood Sea Prince also exclaimed: "What?"
Then, he looked in the direction of Wei Zong with some disbelief, and the result was exactly the same as Qiu Wanqing's reaction, both of them were stunned.
"I actually made a breakthrough... I didn't expect that after Li Shengxuan, the first person to make a breakthrough would be you!"
"You guys are so silent..."
The Blood Sea Prince shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Why, are you surprised?"
Wei Zong walked up to them with a smile, then found a chair and sat down at random.
We are all acquaintances, so there is no need to be restrained.
"Weizong, you don't know..."
Emperor Wu patted Prince Xuehai on the shoulder and chuckled: "They, they have been betting on who will make the next breakthrough. Everyone guessed it, but they didn't guess it was you!"
In fact, this is considered normal. After all, among the top ten evildoers, Wei Zong's cultivation level is actually the lowest among the ten, and he is also the lowest in terms of background and accumulation.
Everyone thought that it would take him a long time to break through, but they didn't expect it to happen so quickly...
"Yeah?"
Wei Zong chuckled, and then glanced at the two of you.
"Sorry, I disappoint you!"
"This is nothing!"
The Blood Sea Prince scratched his head, and then saw Wei Zong looking calm and clear, and suddenly became curious: "Wei Zong, how do you feel after breaking through to the third step?"
"Does it feel like this..."
Wei Zong raised his arms, stretched his muscles, and then said with a smile: "It's not bad! Compared to before, both strength and understanding of the world are much stronger.
If I have to say it, it’s getting closer to the essence of this world!”
"substance……"
The Blood Sea Prince was thoughtful.
The essence of the world is already considered a fundamental thing. Wei Zong seems to be metaphorizing something.
But after all, there was a gap between the two people's current realms, and he didn't understand it for a while.
"Ahem..."
At this time, Emperor Wu coughed twice and interrupted the topic.
When everyone's eyes were focused on him, Emperor Wu slowly said: "Wei Zong, if I guess correctly, your return this time should not be just to reminisce about the past!"
"really!"
Wei Zong nodded: "When I come back this time, I have something to tell you!"
"Is it something secret? If it's secret, we'll leave first!"
Qiu Wanqing glanced at the Blood Sea Prince and signaled him to come with her and let Wei Zong talk to Emperor Wu.
However, Wei Zong gently held her shoulders, then smiled at her and said, "No, it's not a big deal!"
Then, he turned his eyes and said:
"When I come back this time, I actually want to say goodbye to you. I may... disappear for a while!"
"disappear?"
Emperor Wu frowned.
When Wei Zong said disappearing, it might not be as simple as going to a certain world to live in seclusion. Thinking back to the profound meaning of Wei Zong's words before, it seems...
"Weizong, you have to leave!"
Upon hearing Wei Zong's words, Qiu Wanqing and Prince Xuehai were also stunned.
"Um!"
Wei Zong nodded slightly.
Emperor Wu frowned, and the next moment he nodded: "Well, since you have made up your mind, we have nothing to say. We can only wish you a smooth journey."
"Yes, I will!"
Wei Zong nodded.
"correct!"
I don't know what he thought of, but Emperor Wu suddenly looked at Wei Zongdao: "You are now the third step of the strong. Logically speaking, you have to get off the evildoer list and arrange for new people to come up!"
"There's no rush with this!"
Wei Zong's eyes suddenly flashed and he said: "Your Excellency Emperor Wu, I think the matter of the Monster List can be postponed for a while."
After a pause, Wei Zong continued: "No one else knows about my breakthrough to the third step except you, so... I hope you can help me keep it a secret.
As for the monster list... don’t be in a hurry to remove me, it’s not the time yet!”
Hearing Wei Zong's words, Emperor Wu was stunned, and then said: "You want to hide your strength?"
"Roughly the same!"
Wei Zong nodded, then looked at Emperor Wu: "Your Excellency, please!"
"This... is not that difficult!"
Emperor Wu didn't shirk it. After all, how she wanted to be ranked on the so-called monster list was entirely up to her.
Therefore, if Wei Zong wants to stay off the list for the time being, then let him.
"Thank you!"
After hearing Emperor Wu's promise, Wei Zong thanked him again.
"Next, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first!"
Wei Zong raised his hands to several people.
"Farewell!"
Several people also surrendered at the same time!
After leaving Emperor Wu City, Wei Zong left the battlefield outside the territory.
After returning to the void again, Wei Zong stopped.
"Should we go find someone else?"
He pondered for a moment, and unknowingly, he looked in the direction of Sword World.
"Do you want……"
The figure of a young girl appeared in his mind, but he quickly rejected it.
"Forget it, now is not the time to go find her. In order to cause trouble, let's start the matter quickly!"
Thinking of his future plans, Wei Zong began to feel impatient.
"The nature of the world..."
After breaking through to the third step through the Way of Ending, Wei Zong did see something unusual.
let him……
Gain a deeper understanding of the nature of this world.
It also gave him a completely different perspective on the world than before.
