I had originally intended to use the Queen Mother's virtual illusion realm to stop Chenxiang, but I never imagined that after experiencing everything he had been through, Chenxiang's resolve would be far firmer than I could have ever anticipated.
Inside the illusion, I kept telling him that his fate was set in stone, clutching the Heavenly Code precept jade in my hand. Chenxiang's fate could not be changed, nor could his mother's. Yet Chenxiang declared that he would change it no matter what, and if there was no path left to walk, he would forge one himself.
Indeed, he forged one, but I would not let it end there. I took control of Dingxiang, intending to use her strength to continue blocking Chenxiang, but I never expected the forces of the Heavenly Realm to pull out all the stops to block me.
