Yun Che's hands were stained with countless blood throughout his life, but the number of innocent people who died at his hands was actually very small. He was completely ruthless towards sects like the Mighty Heavenly Sword Domain and the Sun and Moon Priests, who had consistently committed evil, without a trace of mercy in his heart. He also felt no regrets and no sense of remorse for annihilating the utterly hypocritical Eternal Heaven God Realm.

But apart from the matter of Burning Heaven Sect, there was another person who made him feel a little guilty when he occasionally thought of her. That was Helian Lingzhu, whom he met when he first entered the abyss.

A month later, Yun Che left the Blue Pole Star and returned to the God Realm. This time, he quietly arrived at the first stop where he fell into the abyss that year—the location of the Helian Kingdom in the Linyuan Realm.

With the mass migration of the Abyssal people, the former Helian Kingdom no longer existed, leaving only the small Helian City. Back then, Yun Che had nearly annihilated all of the Helian Kingdom's elite troops in the Linshen Realm, and even personally killed Helian Lingzhu. Although he had no choice but to do so under the circumstances, looking back now, a faint sense of guilt welled up in his heart.

Yun Che decided to do something for this place that carried the memories of the past.

…

"Qichuan, it's been so many years, and you're still spouting nonsense. Do you have any sense of shame?"

"That's right, you actually claimed to have seen the Mist Emperor, and you even said that he was only at the Divine Sovereign level back then. Do you think anyone would believe you? The Mist Emperor has always been the most powerful being. How could he have only reached the Divine Sovereign level twenty years ago?"

"That's right. The most ridiculous thing is that you actually said that the Mist Emperor healed your hand. Who would believe that? Everyone knows that the Mist Emperor first appeared in the Sea of Mist. In terms of time, that was a long time later than you said. How could a being as high and mighty as the Mist Emperor possibly have any contact with an unknown character like you?"

A group of people gathered around a young man, mocking and insulting him, pointing and pointing, their faces full of disdainful mockery. In their eyes, Qi Chuan's words were simply blasphemy against the Mist Emperor, and no one would believe them.

"You...you guys! Everything I said...is...true!" Qi Chuan had endured the accusations and ridicule of others over the years, but he was powerless to fight back because his cultivation was too weak. Although twenty years had passed, he would never forget Yun Che's appearance. When the Pure Land Eternal Sky projection fell that year, he instantly recognized Yun Che as the Mist Emperor. (If you forget this minor character, you can refer to Chapter 1984 of the original novel.)

But unfortunately, no one was willing to believe him, and he couldn't prove what had happened to him. After all, Helian Lingzhu and Mo Cangying, the only two witnesses to the incident, had already perished in the spatial storm in the Linshen Realm...

"How ridiculous! You're only at the Divine Lord level right now. If you've truly received the help and guidance of the Mist Emperor, how could you not even be able to break through to the Demigod level?"

"Qichuan, we all know you care about your reputation, but using this kind of thing to save face is utterly irrational. This is a grave sin of blaspheming the Mist Emperor. Don't you understand how serious the consequences are?"

Qi Chuan's face flushed red as he passionately retorted, "I swear to heaven, every word I say is absolutely true. There is absolutely no falsehood. If I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning!"

boom!

As Qi Chuan finished speaking, a loud roar suddenly erupted from the sky, and Yun Che's figure suddenly descended from the sky without warning, appearing before everyone. This time, he didn't have any disguise, revealing his true face.

“Mist…Mist Emperor!” Everyone was terrified. Yun Che’s arrival was too sudden. No one had thought that they would have the chance to see the legendary Mist Emperor with their own eyes in this lifetime. It seemed that such a thing could only appear in dreams.

"He's right. I did save him and healed his right arm."

Yun Che's voice was very soft, without deliberately releasing any pressure, nor did he carry the usual majesty of a superior. However, when these words fell into the ears of everyone present, they were like the sound of thunder, deafening.

Except for Qichuan, everyone's first reaction was: What Qichuan said is actually true...

No one could believe it, but the truth was confirmed by Wu Huang himself. Those who had just been mocking Qi Chuan suddenly felt beads of sweat on their faces, and felt an invisible pressure rising from the depths of their souls. They didn't dare to linger any longer, and retreated in panic, fleeing the place one after another.

Yun Che reached out his hand, wanting to help Qi Chuan, who had fallen to the ground. Twenty years had passed since they last met, and the child from back then had grown into a man.

"Fog...Lord Fog Emperor!" Qichuan couldn't believe what he saw. The hero whom he admired so much actually appeared again when he was in the most embarrassing moment. The excitement and gratitude he felt at this moment were probably difficult to describe with any words in the world.

“Twenty years have passed in a flash. I didn’t expect to see you again. It can be considered a kind of fate.” Yun Che showed a gentle smile on his face. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and lightly tapped, and a stream of Hongmeng Qi slowly flowed into Qi Chuan’s body.

In an instant, cyclones surged around Qichuan, and he began to advance towards the realm of divine destruction!

"This..." Qichuan was still immersed in the excitement just now and had not yet come to his senses, but he did not expect that a bigger surprise would follow, and his heart was once again in turmoil.

“From now on, I hope you can shoulder the mission of protecting the Helian people. I owed them something back then.” Yun Che said this in a light tone, and then he disappeared from Qi Chuan’s sight in an instant.

“Qichuan will obey this order and is willing to protect the Helian people for the rest of my life for the Mist Emperor!” Qichuan bowed deeply in the direction where Yun Che disappeared.

What Yun Che gave him was not only a huge improvement in his cultivation, but more importantly, it helped him wash away the humiliation he had suffered over the years and rekindled the light of hope in his heart.
