Chapter 1327: Chapter 955: Final Chapter of Grievances and Retribution

An ominous feeling surged into Prince Pingbian’s heart, his eyes filled with terror. He could sense a peculiar power invading his blood, transforming his Essence, Qi, and Spirit, seizing control of his body and soul.

“This item is called: Blood God Child. Regardless of what kind of creature it is, once possessed by the Blood God Child, they become a Blood Puppet, controlled by it. Your vast family inheritance in the Northern Land, I see that you, an unworthy descendant, won’t be able to keep it. What you father and son owe me will be repaid with the Northern Land. When the time comes, my Blood God Child will take over your identity, guarding the Northern Land forever, opening up a paradise for our Human Race.” Zhang Chen spoke leisurely.

His Blood God Child had already been cultivated to the Twelfth Tier, and once it possessed Prince Pingbian, the Twelfth Tier’s power could be perfectly utilized, enough to defend the Northern Land.

In addition, with the power of the Blood Dao bestowed by Zhang Chen, along with means such as the Blood Sea Asura Array, it would be sufficient to protect Prince Pingbian’s territory and take the entire Northern Land under control, making it impossible for the Demon Race to shake it.

“You little beast, how venomous your heart is! I want you to die a miserable death! You will never have a good end!” Prince Pingbian glared fiercely at Zhang Chen, his voice filled with a shrill bitterness: “Even if I become a ghost, I won’t let you go.”

“Rest assured, being possessed by my Blood God Child, you won’t even have the qualifications to become a ghost. You will transform into a Blood Sea Asura and disappear completely in Heaven and Earth.” Zhang Chen looked coldly at Prince Pingbian.

“I hate it! I hate it!” Prince Pingbian roared to the sky, his voice filled with endless grief and indignation. He was really unwilling to die just like this. His great enmity was not yet avenged, his bloodline had not yet continued, and his foundation fell into the hands of his enemy. His resentment could reach the ninth Heaven; how could he willingly die?

Unfortunately, facing Zhang Chen, he had no chance to overturn the situation. Against the forceful Zhang Chen, he could only be crushed.

Zhang Chen coldly watched Prince Pingbian, and as the Blood God Child invaded his essence, countless fragments of memory were caught by Zhang Chen. After Prince Pingbian completely gave up struggling, a red light flashed in his eyes. The next moment, the red glow around his body disappeared, and he returned to his former appearance, only much younger, looking like a man in his thirties.

As Zhang Chen sensed the information from those countless memory fragments, he was stunned in place, his eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief, staring blankly at Prince Pingbian in front of him, his eyes showing a look of incredulity.

“How could this be?” Zhang Chen asked, reading the memory fragments transmitted by the Blood God Child, his eyes filled with confusion. He wanted to capture more memory fragments, but unfortunately, they were too scattered, broken beyond recognition, and he could only piece together a little bit.

“What exactly was the relationship between his father and Prince Pingbian? Why in the memories of Prince Pingbian, were there fragments of his father’s memory?” He couldn’t comprehend the reasoning behind it.

“How could this happen!” Zhang Chen stood there dazed for a long time before coming back to his senses, still in disbelief, his gaze sweeping over the two women trembling with fright beside him. He cursed Prince Pingbian bitterly in his heart. Since Zhang Xiaohua died, Prince Pingbian had been cooped up in the Northern Land trying to sire descendants to continue his great cause, neglecting affairs, causing the Human Race in the Northern Land to fall into a passive situation.

“Fool! But now that the Northern Land is in my hands, there is great prospect for the future.” Zhang Chen’s mind raced as he began to ponder how to organize the situation in the Northern Land.

First, he needed to communicate with Hu Li the Immortal, completely separating the Demon Race from the Northern Land, then heavily drill the troops, practicing the Blood Sea Array, which with the Blood Dao’s boost, was not inferior to any other array formation.

“The intelligence of the Blood God Child is ultimately not as good as that of a normal person. I still need to appoint a ‘Military Advisor’ to organize and manage the Northern Land since I can’t always stay here and oversee everything.” Zhang Chen mused.

Although the Blood God Child possessed intelligence, it was limited and not enough to oversee the whole situation. To manage the Northern Land properly, he would need to invite a military advisor as well.

“Perhaps I should leave Fox Spirit Nannan in the Northern Land. With her watching over things for me, there shouldn’t be major problems, and it prevents Fox Spirit Nannan from wandering around.” Zhang Chen thought of this and directly acted to summon Fox Spirit Nannan back.

“Zhang Chen, what are you doing! I was handling something important, why did you summon me back suddenly?” Fox Spirit Nannan looked displeased at Zhang Chen.

Her gaze shifted, and after seeing the situation inside the room, especially upon seeing Prince Pingbian, she widened her eyes at Zhang Chen and said: “Is this Prince Pingbian? Is this the Northern Land? How did you end up with Prince Pingbian? Are you acting for the outsiders on purpose?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. I’ve already subdued Prince Pingbian; now he is one of us. From now on, you will stay in the Northern Land to monitor its situation, as well as manage the grand affairs of Prince Pingbian’s Mansion. I permit you to enjoy thirty percent of the Dragon Qi from Prince Pingbian’s Mansion.” Zhang Chen replied.

“Really?” Upon hearing this, Fox Spirit Nannan’s eyes immediately lit up.

Zhang Chen nodded in response: “Of course, it’s not a lie!”

Fox Spirit Nannan laughed and said: “Zhang Chen, you’re quite a decent person indeed.”

Zhang Chen glanced at Fox Spirit Nannan but didn’t speak. Prince Pingbian had already been drained by Bai Cang, and this body was on the brink of collapse. He would still need to secretly use the Blood God Child to devour some demon beasts to make up for the deficit, otherwise, this avatar might meet an untimely demise.

“You are mainly responsible for training the troops here, rehearsing the operation of the Blood Sea Array. I allow you to expand outward, and territories you conquer allow you to spread incense.” Zhang Chen painted a grand vision for Fox Spirit Nannan and then performed an escape technique to disappear from the room.

After Zhang Chen left, Fox Spirit Nannan looked at Prince Pingbian. She didn’t know Prince Pingbian had been possessed by the Blood God Child, so she tentatively asked: “Prince, what should we do next?”

“From now on, all affairs of the Northern Land are at your disposal. I will now gather the elite under my command.” Prince Pingbian replied.

Next, Prince Pingbian gathered all the officials in the Prince’s Mansion, then publicly announced the appointment of the Fox Immortal Nannan. Subsequently, under the guise of seclusion within the mansion, he actually infiltrated the Demon Race, devouring demon beast essence and blood, and by the way, the essence and blood of nearby chaotic troops.

A Blood God Child of the twelfth tier, its methods were imaginable, terrifying the Demon Race, and causing countless rebel armies to gradually disappear without a trace.

The Fox Immortal Nannan, being resourceful, managed the army while secretly organizing the major family relations within Prince Pingbian’s Mansion territories to begin eliminating various hidden dangers.

Born as the strategists of the Demon Race, Nannan of the Fox Race handled these matters with ease.

When Zhang Chen reappeared, he had already returned to his family’s old house. Zhong Xiang sat cross-legged inside, cultivating. The sound of Zhang Chen’s footsteps entering the room startled Zhong Xiang from his cultivation state, “You’re back, you look quite happy.”

“Resolving an old cause-and-effect, how can I not be at ease? In the future, the entire Northern Land will belong to our Zhang Family, and even if Heaven and Earth change dramatically in the future, we will have a foundation to stand on.” Zhang Chen said, taking out a Golden Core refined by the Queen Mother of the West, “This Golden Core possesses supreme wonder. After consuming it, it can help you breakthrough to the tenth tier. I’ll teach you a Secret Technique that will free you from the shackles of your bloodline.”

“This item is too precious, perhaps it should be kept for future generations…” Zhong Xiang hesitantly accepted the medicine from Zhang Chen, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

“Let’s take care of ourselves for now. As for future generations, they will have their own opportunities and fate.” Zhang Chen comforted Zhong Xiang, then passed on the cultivation technique before leaving Zhong Xiang to absorb the medicine. He made his way to the backyard, seeing that Mrs. Zhang and the three little ones had already moved back from the Zhong Family.

Zhang Chen initially didn’t want to continue living in the Zhang Family’s old house and wanted to set up a new place elsewhere. However, considering the changing future, it wouldn’t be safe to place the three little ones and Mrs. Zhang outside. If the royal family or any of his opponents were to find a flaw, it would be troublesome. After all, he intended to repair the spatial passage and enter a retreat, unsure of how long it would take to return. Taking care of external matters would inevitably be lacking, and any oversight would not be good. Hence, it was more reassuring to place them in the Zhang Family.

Seeing Zhang Chen arriving, the three little ones stopped cultivating and all gathered around to dote on Zhang Chen.

“Where’s Big Madam?” Zhang Chen asked.

“Big Madam is meditating in cultivation,” Zhang Tuowei replied.

“Please invite Big Madam out, I have important matters to discuss,” Zhang Chen instructed Zhang Tuowei.

Zhang Tuowei turned and ran inside the house. Soon, Mrs. Zhang led Zhang Tuowei out to the yard, her eyes on Zhang Chen, “What does the eldest son have to instruct?”

“Set up the offering table and place our father’s spirit tablet on it,” Zhang Chen instructed.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang’s expression became solemn, knowing Zhang Chen had something important to say. She didn’t hesitate and organized to set up the offering table, positioning Zhang Kecheng’s spirit tablet appropriately.

Then Zhang Chen picked up a cup of wine, pouring it on the ground, eyes showing a touch of emotion. After a long while, he spoke, “Father, you can rest now. We’ve avenged your great grievance. Prince Pingbian has become my puppet. If you have any awareness, you can smile in the afterlife.”

Mrs. Zhang, behind Zhang Chen, shivered upon hearing this, her voice trembling, “Chen’Er, what you said is true? Your father’s grudge is truly avenged?”

Her voice was full of disbelief.

Zhang Chen’s eyes swept over the tablet, his gaze carrying an obscure light, “Of course it’s avenged! Prince Pingbian is gone from the world.”

Mrs. Zhang would never doubt Zhang Chen’s words. Upon hearing him, she burst into tears like rain, facing Zhang Kecheng’s tablet, “Husband, did you hear? Our great grievance is avenged! If your spirit is aware in Heaven, you can rest now.”

Hearing Mrs. Zhang, Zhang Chen’s eyes revealed an indescribable, unfathomable expression. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Chen’Er, if your father’s spirit in Heaven knew of your achievements today, he would surely be very happy!” Mrs. Zhang said, looking at Zhang Chen’s towering silhouette.

Upon her words, Zhang Chen’s voice held a certain obscurity, “My father dared to even possess the mighty Human King, his bloodline cultivation must have reached an indescribable level. Did he really die so in vain in the Northern Land?”

Mrs. Zhang was stunned, “You mean?”

Hearing her, Zhang Chen’s eyes showed an obscure color, recalling the memories from the soul fragments of Prince Pingbian, figures like Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaolan, and Prince Pingbian from the Northern Land flashing by before him, eventually cutting off all distractions, “It doesn’t matter anymore! I’m the one who survived! I’m the ultimate winner!”

Now that he was the winner, did the truth still matter? Not at all!
