The fates were wicked and cruel or perhaps it was the Celestial Emperor who ordained such a torturous fate for him in the first place.
Once again, Chi Cheng was entrapped by the hideous darkness of his past. Jian Mingyu who was declared to be dead or sealed by the Celestial Hunters now stood before him with a greater advantage than before.

Chi Cheng's body was petrified, unable to lift even a single finger and an agonising realisation dawned on him.
Nothing had changed since the past.
He was still ensnared by Jian Mingyu's bond and susceptible to his control.
