Ignoring the awkwardness of Xilin, Jiang Jing looked at the petite and adorable Theresa and asked, "Theresa, what have you done now?"

…………

After a lively dinner with a group of Valkyries, late at night, Jiang Jing strolled leisurely through the quiet academy, followed by Rita and Durandal.

Both of them drank a lot tonight, especially Youlan Dale, who had been secretly plied with drinks by Jiang Jing. Her face was flushed with an alluring blush, and she followed behind him, feeling a little dizzy.

Watching their retreating figures, who hadn't returned to their residence but instead led them away along the river, Yulandal stammered, "Your Majesty, are you... leaving...?"

.

P.S.: ...

Chapter 425 Reaching the Edge of the Universe, the Great Dao Annihilated

Night fell, and St. Freya Academy was quiet under the lights. With Jiang Jing in front and Rita and Durandal behind, the three of them walked slowly along the tree-lined path.

The tranquil atmosphere was broken when Durandal couldn't help but ask that question.

Jiang Jing stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the blonde beauty who seemed to have been drinking and was now more courageous than before, staring directly at him. He saw something else in her eyes.

Jiang Jing smiled slightly and nodded: "Yes, there is a battle that has dragged on for many years that needs to be resolved. It would be impolite to make them wait any longer after they have waited for so many years."

"What? Your Majesty's past enemies are still alive?"

When Jiang Jing first mentioned the past, Yulandal and Rita were both taken aback. Then, Rita's face showed worry: "Your Majesty, are they very strong?"

"Very strong." Jiang Jingdian nodded in affirmation.

After all, there are three True Spirit Sovereigns. Even if everything goes as smoothly as he expected, Jiang Jing wouldn't dare say he could win easily once the True Spirit bodies are united and condensed into their true forms.

His peak strength in the past was merely a trick to condense a true spirit. Without a true body of a sovereign, and having never reached that level, his understanding of the true power of a sovereign was mostly based on speculation from his own true spirit.

If the true spirit that has condensed the body of the Sovereign is stronger than he predicted, then the best outcome might be that he is seriously injured in the siege of the three Sovereigns, and in the end, the three True Spirit Sovereigns, knowing that he is not a resurrected Nightmare, are unwilling to consume too much of their own energy and pay the price of serious injury to destroy his true spirit before leaving.

However, the chances are very low, and there are other possibilities.

That is, based on his divinely transformed, terrifying physical body comparable to the peak of the Golden Superman, and inscribed with eight primordial cosmic patterns of true spirit bodies, the supreme ruler's true body, condensed into one, is stronger than he imagined, possessing the power to suppress ordinary true spirit rulers.

These thoughts flashed through Jiang Jing's mind, and then he smiled slightly, reassuring Rita, "Don't worry, even if I don't defeat or suppress them, they can't beat me either. This battle is just to settle things."

Fueled by alcohol, Yulandel, much bolder than usual, stared intently at Jiang Jing: "Your Majesty, will you return after this battle?"

Looking up at the night sky where the stars seemed even brighter without the moon, Jiang Jing shook his head slightly as a chill ran through Yulan Dale: "After this battle, I should settle in another world, where I have many acquaintances."

Yulandel was startled: "But Your Majesty, if you're not here, what will happen to the Empire...?"

Jiang Jing waved his hand casually and said, "The empire has you all, so just follow the rules and order. Based on the current situation, there shouldn't be any problems within the next hundred years."

Compared to Durandal's nervousness, Rita, having received Jiang Jing's promise, focused her attention elsewhere, looking at Jiang Jing strangely and saying, "Your Majesty, didn't you sleep for a million years? How come you still have acquaintances in other worlds?"

One lie begins, and countless lies are needed to cover it up. Jiang Jing, who had casually fooled Xi'er into believing he was a powerful figure from a million-year-old civilization, dismissed the matter lightly.

"The battle back then was extremely fierce, and it even reached the edge of the universe. The Great Dao was destroyed and spread throughout the universe. My soul was also split in two. One part slept in this universe, and the other part appeared in another world due to the change of time and space."

"Compared to my millions of years of blank space in this universe, another part of my soul appeared in that universe millions of years later due to the distortion of spacetime, entered the cycle of reincarnation and obtained a body. There, I have family, classmates, and girlfriend. It is much richer and more exciting."

"And most importantly, I need to unite my soul to regain my peak strength."

Jiang Jing's claims about different universes, the splitting and merging of souls, were so numerous that Yulandal and Rita were unable to calm down for a long time, staring at Jiang Jing with their mouths agape in shock.

“Souls united, then after the union, Your Majesty…” Rita suddenly felt a sense of panic.

Knowing what she was worried about, Jiang Jing smiled slightly: "Of course I am still me. Our consciousness and soul are one. What happened over there and everything that happened here are my past experiences."

"Like this."

As he spoke, another identical Jiang Jing stepped out from inside Jiang Jing's body, and the two indistinguishable Jiang Jings stood before Rita and Durandal.

The newly emerged Jiang Jing said calmly, "This is similar to a clone, but we share the same soul and consciousness. It is all me, which is fundamentally different from other clones or divine abilities."

"Of course, this state can only be activated under very special circumstances." After saying this, Jiang Jing entered another Jiang Jing's body.

His situation is very special, just as he said. It involves two bodies in vastly different time-space dimensions and universes. To achieve a unity of their souls and synchronize their consciousness, he can only rely on the connection between the fragments of his true spirit.

However, the Great Dao Demon Gods and Chaos Demon Gods below the True Spirit level simply cannot do this. The bodies they split off are just clones, unable to achieve synchronized consciousness, which easily leads to accidents.

For example, if the clone becomes powerful enough to develop its own consciousness and turn against the original body, or it may simply sever its connection with the original body and become an independent entity.

Beings that have achieved the status of True Spirit Ruler would be even less likely to shatter their True Spirit and fall from the Heavenly Dao Ruler realm for such useless clone abilities.

"It's good that Your Majesty is still Your Majesty." Rita breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Jiang Jing looked at the conflicted blonde beauty and said with a smile, "What's wrong, Youlan Dale? Are you reluctant to let me go?"

By this time, the effects of the alcohol on Youlandail had worn off. She turned her face away, not daring to look at the river view, and said in a somewhat melancholy tone, "Does it matter whether I'm willing to leave or not? Do you think you'd stay if I said I was reluctant to leave Your Majesty?"

“Although I’m leaving, if you say you’re reluctant to part with Yulandal, I might come back.” Jiang Jing continued to tease his personal, proud guard.

"Really...?" Yulandel, who was often teased by Jiang Jing, turned around and looked at Jiang Jing suspiciously.

However, Jiang Jing glanced at the sky and didn't continue the topic. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest."

…………

The next morning, Jiang Jing ate breakfast gently, served by Rita, at a leisurely pace, just like an ordinary person getting ready for work.

After finishing breakfast, Jiang Jing took the napkin Rita handed him, wiped his mouth, and said, "I won't take you there this time. I'll take you there after things are settled over there."

"It could take ten days to half a month, or as little as a few days. If anything happens here, you can handle it."

Rita bowed slightly and smiled gently: "As His Majesty's maid, it is my duty to look after the house when His Majesty is not at home."

"What happens to the empire doesn't matter, just be careful yourself," Jiang Jing said indifferently.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Rita bowed slightly.

However, just as Jiang Jing was about to leave, Rita said gently, "Your Majesty, may we go to the beach before we go?"

"The seaside." Jiang Jing turned his head, glanced at the seaside through the house, and paused involuntarily.

"Ok."

Chapter 426 We'll get married after graduating high school

On the beach, led by Durandal, Theresa, Kiana, Himeko, Fu Hua, and others, all the Valkyries who had drunk too much on New Year's Eve last night stood in a row in front, dressed in magnificent armor.

Behind them were more than a hundred female warriors aged sixteen or seventeen to twenty, who were originally serving under the Heavenly Mandate, also dressed in armor and lined up in four rows.

As for the other four thousand or so Valkyrie newcomers, Theresa and the others were not notified in order not to cause too much of a stir.

When Jiang Jing led Rita out of the woods, Theresa and the others all bowed and said in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"The way you all are making me feel a sense of desolation, like the wind howling and the Yi River running cold." Jiang Jing, who disliked the idea of ​​parting the most, had a headache.

Kiana looked at Jiang Jing with reluctance: "Your Majesty, we will wait for you to return here."

"Ahem... Alright, you guys stop talking. I know what you mean. Let's leave it at that."

After saying that, Jiang Jing waved to the group of beautiful Valkyries, not giving them a chance to continue building up their emotions, and turned to walk away step by step towards the rising sun over the sea.

With each step he took, his figure became more ethereal, and at the same time, a dazzling vortex appeared in the space and sky in front of him, seemingly piercing through the universe, infinitely profound...

Just as Jiang Jing's figure was about to completely disappear into the depths of the vortex, Yulandal suddenly shouted, "Your Majesty, I can't bear to part with you."

"Your Majesty, we can't bear to part with you either!" Kiana shouted along.

Deep within the whirlpool, Jiang Jing, who had become transparent, stopped, turned back to smile at them, waved, and then disappeared into the sea along with the whirlpool.

…………

Ten days after the victory in the Void Battle, a little past four in the afternoon, the Sakura Dormitory under the autumn sun exuded a touch of languor.

In the river-view room, Shiina Mashiro, who had no interest in drawing, lay sprawled on the low table, staring at Hikaru, while Rei, who looked like a little lion dog, happily ate a cake beside her.

"Xiao Qi Hai, you're no good, you lost again." In front of Jiang Jing's old TV, Shang Jingcao Misaki, who had won another game, put down the controller triumphantly.

However, today, Misaki Kamiigusa didn't have her usual energy; she seemed like a wilted eggplant.

Aoyama Nanami, who didn't care about winning or losing, put down the controller and asked curiously, "Senior, you've been dragging me to play games all afternoon. Aren't you going to work on the animation today?"

"My junior isn't home, and I can't find anyone to help me with the plot. Let's give him a day off today." Saying this, Misaki Kamiigusa perked up a bit and turned to look at Mashiro Shiina.

"Mashiro, how about we go shopping now? We can have dinner out and then come back."

"Ugh, shopping? I don't want to go." Shiina Mashiro snapped out of her reverie, shook her head, and showed no interest.

"Senior, let me make some tea. I remember there's a little bit of the apple pie you made last night. After we drink the tea, we can start preparing dinner." Aoyama Nanami stood up.

"Aoyama, the apple pie is gone." Shiina Mashiro pointed to the empty plate in front of Rei and the crumbs Rei was holding in her paws. Seeing Shiina Mashiro pointing at her, the palm-sized Rei blinked blankly.

"..." Seeing this, Aoyama Nanami didn't know what to say to the cute-looking but abnormally powerful pets in her home.

Just then, the sound of the front door being opened was heard outside. Shiina Mashiro immediately jumped up and excitedly ran out, shouting, "Sorata is back!"

"Huh? How did you know it was me coming back?" Jiang Jing, carrying a large bag of groceries, stepped into the house and looked at Shiina Mashiro who ran out with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Jing had to suppress his aura to surprise them.

"I knew it was Sorata just from the sound of the door opening." Standing on the Xuan Guang, Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Jing with a happy expression, a hint of pride in her eyes, as if to say, "I'm amazing, praise me!"

"Junior, you're back... Hahahaha... I knew you were alright, junior." Misaki Kamiigusa ran out like the wind and rushed towards Jiang Jing from afar.

With a loud thud, excited Misaki Kamiigusa clung to Jiang Jing like a koala. Shiina Shinpaku immediately tilted his head and stared intently at the spot where she was pressing against Jiang Jing's chest.

"Senior, didn't you see my hands are covered in stuff?" Jiang Jing said, a little annoyed.

At this moment, Aoyama Nanami also came out. When she saw Jiang Jing in the distance, joy appeared in her eyes, but she was relatively restrained: "Welcome back to Kanda, senpai. Please let Kanda in first."

"Yes, junior, come in quickly."

Jiang Jing's return seemed to have injected vitality into Sakura-sou. Shiina Mashiro looked at the pile of bags in Jiang Jing's hands strangely: "Sorata, why did you buy so much stuff? Aoyama just bought some ingredients for the refrigerator yesterday."

Jiang Jing smiled slightly, handed the things in his hand to Misaki Ueiso and Nanami Aoyama, and casually said while changing his shoes, "I'm cooking tonight, so I bought a little extra food."

"Wow, junior, are you going to cook?"

Glug!

Having not eaten Jiang Jing's cooking for a long time, Aoyama Nanami subconsciously swallowed, then blushed.

"Senior, Chtholly and the others are almost out of school. Why don't you call them over? Aoyama, could you go and call Skadi and Medusa later? Mashiro, could you call Sengoku-sensei and ask her to call Shizuka over for dinner when she gets out of school?"

"Oh, by the way, I should also give a call to my former editor, Yuriko. Come to think of it, she hasn't tried my cooking yet. Let's have some fun tonight."

"Okay, junior."
