Everyone else was looking at Ming Xi suspiciously.
They weren’t sure if it was really him standing in front of them or the czar trying to fool them.
Fortunately the king’s spirit and his attendants appeared, and they were able to confirm Ming Xi was truly Ming Xi.

This was a relief to everyone.

“So now that the czar is dead, does that mean the curse is lifted?” LeChen thought out loud.

“The curse was placed by the czar, and now that he is dead, the curse will naturally disappear,” affirmed the king.

The king sighed sadly at the death of the czar.
He had originally followed Feng Wu in order to release the spirits of the other kings; he had not expected things to end as they did, so naturally, he was sad.

Meanwhile, in the city below the moon, the shackles holding the spirits there released.
Their bodies, once duplicates of one another, finally reverted back to their true forms.
They cried in excitement.

“We’re changed back! We’re changed back!”

“The czar is dead at last! We’re free!”

“Finally! I had waited so long for this day!”

“What. . . ”

“Ah!”

The spirits cried and shouted in happiness; they hadn’t felt so light and relaxed in such a long time.
They could be reborn now that the curse entangling them was lifted.

The spirits bowed to Feng Wu and the others on the moon in thanks before disappearing into the world one by one.
None of them had been interested in staying in the ancient desert city filled with so many painful memories.

The sea god wasn’t the one binding their souls to the tomb; it was the czar’s consciousness.
He had, in fact, resolved the methods used by the sea god long ago.
Thus, the spirits were free to leave once the czar’s curse was lifted.

Small Jade was among the spirit bodies.
She, like the others, had regained her original appearance as well.
If the middle-aged uncle and the rest were there, they would have recognized her as one of their team members, and one of the first missing from the group.

The others missing from the group were there as well.

“Let’s leave, leave and be reincarnated.” A young man next to Small Jade suggested.
He was from the same group and had also returned to his original appearance.

“I don’t know what happened to them.” She muttered to herself.

Their group was the first to enter the ancient city, but they were unfortunate and died under the hands of the spirits.
All they knew was, when they opened their eyes, they were already dead.
They had no idea how they died.

The world they saw after dying was completely different from the one they saw while alive.
They were surrounded by the same souls with the same faces.

It was a terrifying world, but the most terrifying was yet to come.
Small Jade was favored by the czar, and asked to convince Ming Xi and the others to go to the red moon.
He had promised to let them leave after restoring the bodies of her and her group members if she succeeded.

The czar had made them inhuman and they were on the verge of a mental breakdown.
His promise was like a life raft.

Though Small Jade felt sorry for Ming Xi’s group, she still went ahead and agreed to the deal.
She soon regretted it, but there was nothing she could do because spirits like her couldn’t enter the moon.

She couldn’t stop them and could only watch as they fell into the czar’s trap.

Fortunately, nothing happened to them, so she didn’t feel as guilty.

“They will be fine.” An old man sighed.

He had been mentally prepared to not make it out even before entering the tomb, he just didn’t expect his last moments to end the way they did.
The only good thing was that he wouldn’t be the czar’s slave and be forever trapped in the city.

Having the opportunity to reincarnate was already pretty good.

Their eyes were complicated as the group looked up at the red moon.
Eventually they turned into a ray of light and flew to the sky.

Feng Wu and the others knew nothing of this.

The palace had no owner once the czar died.
The middle-aged uncle and everyone else began rummaging through the palace looking for treasures.
In the end, they found some good magical tools, but all the really valuable items had already been put away by the king and his attendants.

The most valuable of which was the Blood Sacrifice technique.

Zi Cheng was very interested in it.
She didn’t intend to practice it; she had planned on selling it to her system for points.
The amount she could trade for the technique would have been tremendous, so of course she didn’t want to let the opportunity go.

The group searched everywhere but couldn’t find it.

Zi Cheng suspected the technique wasn’t recorded on anything physical, but was most likely memorized by the czar.
Since Ming Xi defeated the czar’s consciousness, it stood to reason, Ming Xi knew it as well.

Zi Cheng was disappointed.
There was no way she could get it, because even if she asked Ming Xi, he would never tell her.

Feng Wu took the opportunity, while everyone was searching for treasures, to have Xiao Chun clear away the air in the blood moon.

Xiao Chun was ecstatic.
As soon as he heard there was food to be eaten, he flew out immediately.
Once his purification began, the buildings on the red moon began to collapse and the ground shook like it was being torn apart.

At this point, a black transfer point appeared and people began to immediately jump in.

After Xiao Chun returned to Feng Wu’s dantian, Ming Xi grabbed Feng Wu’s hand, and together they jumped into the transfer point.

The Kingdom of Sand sealed off completely once the red moon disappeared.

…

 

Time passed by in the blink of an eye, and before long, ten days had passed since Ming Xi and the others entered the tomb.

Jier, Ink, and Leo, the three guys who

stayed behind and acted as fathers, every day, either played with Little Bun or hung out at the stern of the boat fishing.

It was a boring life, and all they did was chat.
They couldn’t leave if the wanted to.

The people waiting on nearby boats were facing the same struggle.

Jier would never have expected, that in the course of waiting for Ming Xi and the others, he ended up, by default, waiting for Oleen, Milty, and Yanran as well.[notes]

Milty, uncaring of the trouble it would cause everyone, had run off with the boat Ming Xi chartered, in order to save Oleen.
