Li Changzhou opened his eyes, having already left the Heavenly Road and returned to the Palace of the Polestar in the Heavenly Court.

Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Heavenly Pillars stood tall, yet not densely packed, the grand hall still appeared vast, exuding a majestic aura.

Immortal Energy flowed like mist beneath his feet, each breath filled with the Power of the Stars, Sun, and Moon.

"Ergou, oh Ergou, today is the day, you're finally not the first! Wahahahaha!" Li Qianxia laughed joyfully, her hand arrogantly resting on Li Changzhou's shoulder.

Youthful and charming, bright and cheerful.

Li Changzhou also laughed: "This makes us look like real siblings. Sister, do you understand your brother's good intentions?"

"I'm ranked eleventh, come on! Who's like real siblings with you!" Li Qianxia was unconvinced.

Li Changzhou raised his hand.

"I was wrong, Ergou Bro! You'll always be my dear Ergou Bro!" Li Qianxia obediently held his arm affectionately like a puppy.

Turquoise Pool laughed, teasing: "Sickeningly sweet."

Li Changzhou flashed her a smile, causing Turquoise Pool to shyly turn her face away.

Yang Qinglan also appeared by their side, helplessly smiling at the siblings' fiery interaction.

Li Changzhou looked at Yang Qinglan, and the two exchanged glances.

He teased: "My lady, a year hasn't passed, and your charm remains unchanged."

Yang Qinglan nodded with a smile: "My lord is also as always, eyes clear, countenance handsome."

Li Changzhou slightly lifted his chin, looking down upon others in a somewhat serious manner.

He looked at the figures appearing one after another: Yafeiluna, Phoenix, Little Martial Saint, Supreme True Demon, and others.

Yafeiluna knelt: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

The others were somewhat hesitant; they now held the Heavenly Position, with an extra Heavenly Will Ball in hand.

But this time, Li Changzhou hadn't entered the top ten of the rankings.

When the ruler is weak and the subjects strong, the latter might not always have to be the former.

Yet just as they thought this, a wisp of black mist drifted from their bodies, making them realize they had already been devoured and infected by the black mist in Mountain Sea City.

Even with the Heavenly Position now, they couldn't harbor any rebellious thoughts against Li Changzhou.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" everyone knelt before Li Changzhou.

Though Chang'e didn't kneel, she stood with her head lowered to one side.

The Primordial Divine Tree emerged, overshadowing the original Lingxiao Palace, capturing all grandeur.

As the tree's crown gently swayed, all the extra Heavenly Will Balls from everyone's bodies were taken away, appearing as if embedded in its branches.

None dared to lift their head.

Then Li Changzhou spoke: "Now that you have become the Heavenly Position, the strongest in the world, surpassing all Saints, you should obtain more, which I permit, but it can only be outward, never inward.

"'Corpse Bone Gene', 'Princess', 'True Dragon', and others are not dead yet. 'Always Invincible', while not in the top ten, should not be underestimated. In the face of great enemies, what to do and what not to do, this scale lies within both your hearts and mine, each must understand."

"We understand." Everyone responded in unison.

"You may go. Yafeiluna, set a date for the Heavenly Court's formal commencement."

"Yes."

After everyone left, Li Changzhou took the three of them back to the Honey Jar World.

This time, unlike the First Stage's arena and the Second Stage's instances, they genuinely spent a year there. In the Honey Jar World, Li Huoya hadn't changed much, still the ravishing beauty with fiery red hair.

The reincarnated Guanyin of Li Yuyin, and Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan's real child Yang Tianlu, now looked three to four years old.

Li Yuyin, holding a scroll, sat beneath the Flat Peach Tree, with a board game beside her. Opposite her, Li Huoya bit her soft lips, unable to make a move for a long time.

A hammock was strung between two Flat Peach Trees, wind swaying, with golden tresses of Bi flowing atop the hammock.

Yang Tianlu was under the hammock, sitting with Little Radish, each gnawing on a Flat Peach.

"Yuyin, Tianlu, you've both grown so much!" Li Qianxia was the first to rush over.

Li Huoya bit a black game piece, not even lifting her head: "Now, quickly, [Primordial Divine Body] still fears its own death due to weakness, just like when it was my age; it will slow down and sync with mortal growth rates."

Li Qianxia picked up Yang Tianlu, and Yang Tianlu glanced at her baffled, then continued eating his peach.

"So tender and cute, um~" Li Qianxia adored him excessively, planting a firm kiss on him.

Yang Tianlu continued eating his peach, completely oblivious.

Li Qianxia placed him back beside Little Radish and went to hug Li Yuyin.

Li Yuyin raised her hand, signaling to stay away: "Playing chess, don't disturb."

She only reached Li Qianxia's knee, her black hair tied in a bun at the back, sculpted delicately, adorably cute.

"Yuyin can play chess too." Li Qianxia adored her as well, squatting down, "Let Aunt teach you, okay~"

She glanced at the board, then rose without a word, pretending she hadn't spoken or seen anything.

"You're back..." Bi murmured on the hammock, flipping over to continue her slumber.

In her dream, the Queen with a Flame Divine Crown was imparting the profundities of Telekinesis.

Yang Qinglan looked at Yang Tianlu, feeling a bit unfamiliar, the closeness from infancy having faded significantly over the year of separation.

After all, he wasn't borne from ten months of pregnancy, and after birth, they hadn't spent much time together.

Plus, her disposition was relatively reserved, so upon seeing the child, she only gently patted his head.

Li Changzhou stood by, wanting to hug him, but can't just hold Yang Tianlu, right? Li Yuyin also needed a hug, but she was Guanyin.

"Father~" Li Yuyin put down her book and ran towards Li Changzhou.

Li Changzhou picked her up, and Li Yuyin wrapped her arms around his neck, obediently saying word by word: "Father, I missed you so much."
