It was not that long ago when the Holy Light Emperor was still in his prime age. He was still young at that time when he ventured to the edges of the Sacred Region. After reaching the Saint King Realm, his master let him travel the world.

Moreover, at that time as well, there was still no array formation in the Sacred Region. Only an open Sacred Region where anyone could enter and go as they pleased. Not until the Holy Light Emperor experienced something bizarre—it could be said to be his fortuitous encounter.

There was this man who had a servant beside him. He had a handsome face and his demeanor surpassed every living being he had seen. Calling him divine would be an understatement.

Under that man's strength, however, the Holy Light Emperor even thought he would die. Especially when he saw the other party's eyes. He felt like the figure was stronger than his master. However, to his surprise, the man did not want anything of him. He even gave him a fortuitous encounter.

As the man said so, he waved his hand and four beasts shot out from the sleeves of his black robe. He looked like an evil emperor who decided to release ferocious existences. However, magically, those four beasts that appeared all of a sudden made the Holy Light Emperor feel like he was an ant.

That was because these four beasts were the four divine beasts he had only read about in legends. Moreover, these beasts were arrogant in nature and they wouldn't be just subdued by anyone just unless that someone would be enormously talented or had a strong cultivation realm to make them submit.

However, these beasts were actually kneeling in the air with heads bowed toward the man who released them!

The Holy Light Emperor could not take it in and even almost fainted in shock.

But that was not more shocking than what happened next.

Another beast actually shot out from the handsome man's sleeve!

"Qi Lin, you lead the four of them. This part of your soul will become the core of the formation. You will guard this place for me. This man and the people here once helped me when I came back from the void injured. I want you, my subordinates, to repay their kindness with this lifetime favor." The man smiled at the beast he called Qilin.

However, the Holy Light Emperor was too shocked about what happened. Did he really save this man before? Why couldn't he remember?

Moreover, what was that beast again? A Red Qilin? Wasn't that even more terrifying than the four divine beasts behind it?!

'What the fuck is going on?!'

He was almost frightened to death once more.

"Uhm… e-excuse me…"

"Impudent!" the Qilin reacted and released his boundless aura toward the Holy Light Emperor. However, it was immediately blocked by that man's casual wave.

"Stay your hands, Qilin. This man here is my benefactor," the man seriously said as he shot a glare at the Qilin.

"I apologize, Your Highness!" The Qilin sweated so hard under Yang Lujia's pressure. He didn't know that His Highness' reaction would be this exaggerated.

Soon enough, however, his gaze became gentler than before as he turned to look at the Holy Light Emperor. "What do you want to ask?"

The Holy Light Emperor heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the amiable face of the handsome man. He then breathed in and said, "When did this lowly subordinate save you, Your Highness?"

He was sensible. Witnessing how the beast, Qilin, called Yang Lujia, he imitated the way they addressed him.

"You don't remember, because I naturally erased a part of your memory about my existence when I recovered. And I am sorry for that. However, it was that one day when I was swept back by the void to this region."

The handsome man wanted to leave the Five Realms immediately and go directly to the void to see his family and prove to them that he was already prepared to meet them. Unfortunately, his strength was still lacking. Thus, he was injured, and by a river, a boy found him by the river in the Sacred Region.

It was this man, the Holy Light Emperor, before him.

"So, it was you!" the Holy Light Emperor exclaimed. He still remembered that man from before who he thought had died, but miraculously was revived after a few days. Nevertheless, he still took him and took care of him.

A few months after, when the boy woke up one day, he noticed that he could not remember anything. He could only recall that moment when he found that man by the riverside and saved him. He felt that he had forgotten about something and decided to disregard that feeling and went on with his task.

The Holy Light Emperor had long lost his parents. He was living on his own as a child in the middle of a forest. By the time the handsome man left his residence, another old man suddenly arrived in front of his residence.

This old man had a very kind aura and looked like a beggar. He accepted the old man to his own residence and fed him.

"Senior, why are you like this? Who did this to you? Why are you filled with wounds?" he asked curiously and worriedly.

He was just a kid back then, ignorant of the affairs of the world of cultivation.

However, the old man remained silent so the Holy Light Emperor did not bother him anymore. He let him sleep in his own bed and decided to sleep on the floor—just like what he did to the handsome man before.

On that night when the Holy Light Emperor was sleeping, the old man suddenly woke up and stood from his bed. "Not bad. His Highness did not see it wrong. This kid is truly kind to people. It's a real wonder how he had survived until now and even maintained this attitude all this time."

However, just as the old man was smiling, the boy suddenly grunted in his sleep. His whole body was already drenched in sweat. "Mom… dad… where are you…"

This ached the old man's heart. "You must have suffered several traumas, but you didn't become an evil person. Instead, you still chose to help people who you do not even know."

The old man naturally knew that this world had the survival-of-the-fittest rule. If he left this boy alone, he would really be guilty if the boy would fall into the hands of evil people.

The old man brought the boy to bed and checked his vital signs. Fortunately, the boy was still in a good condition and could cultivate. It was just that the boy's talent wasn't enough to become his successor and the people of his palace might not like it. Therefore, he was conflicted about what he should do.

He was moved by the boy and he wanted to accept him as his direct disciple, but his talent was lacking.

"My friend, it seems like you're worried about something." A figure suddenly appeared beside the bed that almost frightened the old man. "Are you hesitating to accept him as your disciple? If so, you don't have to hesitate anymore."

PUTT!

The old man loudly knelt and it almost woke up the sleeping boy. "Your Highness!"

The handsome man came back and looked at the boy gently. "This boy was the one who took care of me all this time. I want to repay him a favor. Moreover, do you know the reason why you should not hesitate to take him in as your disciple?"

The old man was confused and even rechecked the potential of the boy. However, he could really not find anything heaven-defying in the boy's body. Some of his meridians were even sealed and blocked by a black substance.

"This boy is not your typical human. Like me, he also came from the void," the man said, his voice sonorous that containing the majesty of someone who was at the top of the hierarchy. "In other words, this boy is Void Human, someone whose potential can be said to be normal in the void, but extremely talented in the Five Realms."

What the handsome man said was like a thunderclap inside the old man's mind. Soon enough, his face showed excitement. He had always wanted to accept this child as his disciple because he quite liked his character.

"Truly, Your Highness?!"

"Truly." The man nodded with a smile. "However, as you have sensed, the boy's meridians, which are very useful for cultivation were blocked by a black substance. It must be something that his parents had placed on him, to not expose his potential. I also wonder why they would do that and it seems impossible. However, as I thought about it further, it should be caused by their enemy instead. Just now, he had dreamt of his father and mother getting killed by someone."

"You even saw through that, Your Highness?"

The old man was truly impressed. What was His Highness' cultivation? Why did it seem like His Highness' presence being labeled as unfathomable would be an understatement?

"Yes. Now, that you want this boy to become your direct disciple, I will be glad to leave with a light heart. He saved me. It's now my time to save him from this world's cruelty," the handsome man said. "Tonight, I will unlock his potential and destroy every hindrance in his body that his parents' enemy had placed."

GASP!
