"Nether Absolute, Nether Emperor, Old man severance, the creator, the desecrator, Ruler of The Nine, blah blah blah, I have been called by so many names that it's hard to keep track of all of them, but the single constant has always been that no one no matter how great they may think themselves has ever shown even a hint of disrespect towards my magnificent self, then how in the nine Hells did I end up here, a servant to a bratty spoiled young miss, how did this happen, how???

The following day, news of the prince's resurrection spread throughout the Ming kingdom and beyond. All individuals heard of this apparent miracle from the measly mortal to mighty demigods in their ancient cultivation caves.

King Ming didn't try to suppress this information because he as a ruler of hundreds of years understood that information of this magnitude could not be suppressed forever since the truth always finds a way to get out. All one can do is find ways to obtain maximum benefits in all situations.

King Ming spread the information using his kingdom's entire information network.

He made alterations to the story spread.

Instead of the prince resurrecting from his coffin, it was spread that he was in his chambers. This was to reduce the people's fear of the unknown. People's fear of death was ingrained in their very being and this fear needed careful handling.

He also made sure that all heard about the fake story of Xerxes first told about him being saved by a powerful master who subsequently took Xerxes as his disciple.

This was meant to buy Xerxes sometime as he had requested King Ming buy to find a way for him to handle some matters without any interruptions.

As. the story spread, it gained wind and started evolving. Some mortals even came up with a version that claimed that the prince was so blessed even death didn't dare take him into its domain so it had to bring him back to the land of the living.

All the versions which spread could fool mortals and weak cultivators but powerful cultivators understood that something was being hidden from them. The only reason they hadn't stormed the Ming royal palace to demand answers was their fear of the mysterious master who could even defy the absoluteness of death.

In the cultivation chamber of Princess Evelyn, Emperor Chu informed his daughter of what was going on. She quietly listened to the emperor. After he was done, she slowly opened her eyes and to the emperor's surprise, she replied with a single sentence. "I will go meet him in 7 years' time ."

She then closed her eyes going back to her cultivation.

As the continent was being turned upside down by the prince's resurrection, the protagonist of the many stories was in a cultivation chamber inside the royal palace unconcerned by whatever may be happening outside the chamber.

Xerxes was sited in the center of the chamber looking dazed.

"I made many preparations for after re-entering the world but I may have underestimated the time necessary to carry them out and the speed required. There was no time in the void so after some time, I also forgot about the concept of time itself to the point that I neglected to account for it in my plans. According to my new calculations I have about 80 years before the heavens discover my intrusion and force me out again or worse it may have discovered a way to kill me after all this time. I need to accelerate my plans, they may not be Carried out to perfection but I have no other choice. " Xerxes dazedly muttered to himself.
