The current situation was very strange to Shang.

For over two centuries, he had kept only to himself, not daring to tell anyone about anything related to his powers.

He couldn't let anyone find out that he was the Child of Calamity.

Because of that, he had to keep secret that he had four Affinities.

Because of that, he had to keep secret that he had four States.

Additionally, Shang also had an entirely separate issue that also forced him to keep secrets.

Shang was being pursued by the Lightning Manor. They knew that they were essentially searching for the strongest warrior in the world, and if anyone found a really powerful Fifth Realm warrior, they would be easily able to connect the two people.

Because of that, Shang even had to keep his identity as a warrior a secret.

He even had to keep his name a secret.

Hell, the Lightning Manor probably even knew that Shang was missing an eye he couldn't regrow, which meant that Shang even had to keep his appearance a secret.

Shang had even killed innocent people just because they might have potentially found out some little clue about some irrelevant secret of his.

Secrets upon secrets upon secrets.

And now, he was suddenly supposed to be honest?

Right now, it was like Shang was standing in front of a dark abyss.

He had to walk forward into the darkness, into a place he had never been before.

This reminded Shang of the time he stood at the edge of Area 23.

He also hadn't known what would await him.

Back then, Shang had also been forced to enter a place he had never been to before. He didn't even know what it looked like.

Shang had taken the plunge back then.

After many minutes or even hours of falling, Shang had eventually broken past the last layer of clouds.
