Chapter 1308: 18.146 First Grey Star - The Seal is Broken.
Given that they both originated from the same place and are gods, the switch of bodies happened relatively immediately. Hei Anjing took away the man's restraints and showed no more interest in the kneeling man. Only at Mo Xinyue's request did he comply. His emotions, sentiments, and memories all returned as he fused with Mo Xuejing's spirit. include his soul fragment's long-forgotten memories.
He can not decide whether to hurt his natal family, which is the tragic result of his failure to keep his family intact. Ultimately, he perished once and was resurrected by his love.
Hei Anjing glanced at Chaos and said, "You took over this body to help him remove the restraints of the heavens. You did everything just for that one chance to take your revenge but hesitated. You are a fool. That man is mine! If you want a piece, you can only return."
Chaos frowned when he thought of merging with the main soul. "I'm not returning until I take my revenge. Next time, I won't hesitate."
He destroyed a fragment of space, then vanished and stepped right in. He even disregarded the two mortals' horrified expressions in front of him. Hei Anjing, on the other hand, has a sly little smirk on his lips.
"You will have to return regardless, unless you want to completely disappear," Hei Anjing mumbled.
As Heavenly Guardian Mo Xinyue saw, chaos was breaking out. His eyes were no longer the same color, but they were still a distinctive feature that distinguished his grandson Mo Xuejing from him.
"Where had he gone to?" Lao Mo asked.
Hei Anjing answered, "He returned where he was supposed to be. He would come back if he was bored. By the way, Grandfather, my memories of the past are back."
The leader of the Mo Clan and grandfather of Mo Xuejing turned silent upon this news. A guilty and regretful expression appeared on his old face.
Sigh!
Hei Anjing spoke, "He forgave you, so I shall as well. But... It mustn't happen again. I don't give second chances."
"Thank you, Xue'er."
At the sound of these words, Heavenly Guardian Mo Xinyue felt the weight of the stone on his shoulders lift. Even after his memories vanished, he knew his grandson had forgiven him.
Hei Anjing observed the foolish prince's bewildered expression as he continued to kneel on the ground. Thank goodness for the carpet, which provided some cushioning from the frigid floor.

"Kid, what you wanted was already taken away by someone. You came too late."
The fact that someone was ahead of Second Prince Xingju startled him. After what had transpired, he was terrified of Mo Xuejing, even though he wanted to ask him.
"I...."
"You wanted to ask about who took it? It's a demon. Well, he must be under someone's order. He took away the puppet vessel. Since you came for the same thing, that must mean that whoever that is must have met him. Just go see him and ask him yourself instead of wasting your time here," Hei Anjing said.
The second prince, Xingju, was enraged. "That bastard!"
"You cannot just believe the words of the devil. What an idiot!" Hei Anjing said.
Regarding the second prince, he was eager to leave and go to the Tower of Gods because of Hei Anjing's guidance. He did not inform him that he knew the man in the tower had probably made another pact with someone else.
Hei Anjing was about to leave but still said a few words to his grandfather about this world. "Grandfather, I will gather some god-grade beings to help you in this calamity. I will only make my move when my husband returns. Me appearing on the battlefield field will just make the monsters stronger."
"You know what kind of monsters would come out first?" Heavenly Guardian Mo Xinyue asked.
Hei Anjing made an excuse. "I can somehow contact Ye Jieye, who is inside, but it's not a stable connection. He is busy inside. He just has enough time to tell me what type of monster would come out first. Mirror monsters would possess the same strength as the one fighting them. Do you want a monster with my strength to appear on the battlefield?"
"No. That's too dangerous. But what about your cubs? Will they be alright?" Heavenly Guardian Mo asked worriedly for his great-grandchildren.
Hei Anjing chuckles and says, "If something can kill them, they can only be gods. Don't worry, I will send someone to watch over them. You should return. The door is about to open completely."
"Okay. Be careful on your way." Heavenly Guardian Mo Xinyue also left in a hurry after getting important information from his grandson.
Hei Anjing, who was left behind, summoned Zhi Yang, his system.
"Yang, watch over my children. You have permission to kill anything that dares to harm them."
[Yes, Master! As you command!] System Yang said as he also disappeared somewhere to find his young lord and little princess.
Hei Anjing's expression grew distant and then vanished. It was clear that he had no desire to assist the mortals in fending off the land's disaster.
---
In the land where the entrance of the Ruins of Time Dungeon is located.
Simultaneously, with Ye Jieye's physical departure, a significant shift occurred. The seals on the dungeon entrance progressively cracked the instant the God of Destruction hooked his soul out of his body, and the region closest to the opening experienced an earthquake.
Cracks. Crackles~ cracked!
When some hunters and knights heard the noise, they discovered that the door's entrance had a thin film-like glass covering that had suddenly expanded and that the chains covering it were rusting and moving, with dust and a few cracks all over them.
"The seal on the entrance of the dungeon is breaking!"
"Urgent Report! Inform someone from the palace!"
"Rang the bell and sirens!"
"Send a warning within the whole city!"
There are warning tones and clanging bells throughout the entire city. Startled were those who were eating, and they assembled their members at once. In the open space, the royal knights also congregate. Some were watching the seal disintegrate in front of them, so they had to wait from a distance. The disaster affecting the land started on this day.
The Heavenly Guardians, Lu Wangle, Xian Wu, Lao Gu, and Mu Zang, did not take long to show up. Upon arrival, they saw large fissures in the entrance's seal, and their expressions turned gloomy.
Heavenly Guardian Gu asked, "The seal is truly broken. What should we do?"
"What should be, should be done! Tell others to prepare to fight!" Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle said.
Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang looked around and noticed a few important figures missing at the scene.
He asked, "Where is Lao Mo, the King, and the Second Prince?"
"The King is on his way. He is giving orders to the palace and plans to use the palace as a safe area where injured people would be dragged in and treated by the doctors and healers led by Sen and those twin brats," Heavenly Guardian Xian Wu said. "As for the second prince, he suddenly dragged Xiao Mo with him back to his mansion. It seems like something urgent."
Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle retorted, "Is there even something more important than the calamity!? The Second Prince is truly... Hmp!"
"No. Maybe this is better. They can check on Xiao Ye and Xiao Mo," Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang said. "Xiao Ye told me that the seal will be completely broken when his soul returns inside the dungeon, where his body is located."
"If that brat is returning, what about Xiao Mo?" Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle asked. "His children were also left in our care."
"Where are they?" Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang asked.
Heavenly Guardian Gu, who saw where the two cubs of Satan were playing before, said, "I seem to see them playing in front of the main tent at the rear. They should be okay. Moreover, those kids are stronger than us."
"That is also true," Heavenly Guardian Xian Wu said, laughing with the group.
BOOOOM!
Suddenly, there was a tremendous cracking sound of glass and a lot of wind noise. At last, the seal was broken completely, and the chains encircling the two stone pillars collapsed and turned to dust.
Heavenly Guardians Lu and Gu couldn't hold back a curse. "Fuck! It's truly broken!"
"Stay away from the stone pillars!" Heavenly Guardian Mu Zang shouted using his sound elements, which made everyone in the area hear his words.
Some, however, move more slowly than others. The space itself deformed as a suction force suddenly materialized between the two pillars. Those who did not flee were drawn in and crushed, forming small droplets of red blood from fragments of flesh and blood. As soon as they realized they would be swept in, everyone moved away from the opening hole.
The entire meter encircling the pair of pillars was drawn in. When the space gate opened with such force that all the grass and stones were sucked in, a crater was left behind. In between the two stone pillars materialized a rectangular gateway the size of a human. It seems like a door, however, from their side, it is impossible to look through the space door.
This was the entrance that Heavenly Guardians Mu Zang and Lu Wangle would never forget. Their children had gone through this identical door, which had been locked for years. Mu Zang felt drawn to the door, as though he were hoping to see someone he had lost contact with over the last few years. Ye Jingya is his beloved spouse.
Sadly, Xian Wu and Lu Wangle stopped him. They will not allow him to go inside that unidentified place by himself. He is also their commander. He commands them while keeping an eye on the entire shape of the battlefield. Since nothing has yet materialized, they cannot lose him at this time.
Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle supported his shoulder, and Heavenly Guardian Xian Wu held his arm.
The drunkard old dwarf, Xian Wu, said, "Don't be foolish! You cannot enter there right now!"
"Stop putting yourself in danger! I wouldn't know what to say to Brother Ye if something happened to you. Be good and wait for them to come out with Xiao Ye," Heavenly Guardian Lu Wangle said.
Mu Zang covered his face and said, "I know. I know that! I was trying to get closer, maybe. Just maybe my connection with Jingya will be restored!"
His gang of pals knew that Ye Jingya, the husband of Mu Zang and their sworn brother, and their sons and grandson were trapped in the dungeon. They were unaware of the consequences that might have occurred if Ye Jieye had not come back inside to save them. After all, he must go back to his natural body in this realm.
If not, everyone outside the dungeon would have perished at the hands of the monsters, in addition to the people who were trapped inside.
This is the future that Mo Xuejing saw but did not select. Not only did Ye Jieye not return to the dungeon to remove his body in this scenario, but Hei Anjing never awoke either. They were put in peril during the last tragedy involving the sky, and they suffered terribly under the tragedy of the Land. Mo Xuejing did not select this future for that reason.
In order to save Ye Jieye from dying, Mo Xuejing decided to merge with Hei Anjing. Juedi, the God of Destruction's Death Scythe, had made sure Ye Jieye's soul was safely separated. Anything can be chopped off or killed by the death scythe with a swipe of its blade. But one would not be readily overcome by the blade of death, so long as the wielder did not wish for the death of his prey.
Lu Wangle pats Mu Zang's shoulders in comfort and says, "Think positive. Our grandson has returned inside. Do you think they would fail to save them? He is so strong that it's almost impossible to consider him a human. Xiao Ye can definitely take them out of there. Just be patient and wait here with us."
Sigh
It took Mu Zang some time to settle down. Not only did the open door to the outside world convey optimism that those inside would be rescued, but it also brought dejection. He thinks his grandchild can save his parents, uncles, and grandfather because he has faith in him. As long as they were alive, he would, at the very least, not allow them to die.
"I understand. I will wait. This time I will not watch that door close again."
