Chapter 2004 - Death and Rebirth
The atmosphere suddenly became silent. Jiang Chen and Nanbei Chao looked at each other. They then shut their eyes simultaneously.
The people below dared not utter a word, they knew that the outcome of this battle would be decided the next time the two of them opened their eyes.
One could imagine… after this neverending fierce battle without conclusion, it shall reach a point where both parties had to sacrifice something to attain victory.
Five minutes had passed, but neither of the two once thought of launching a sneak attack. They just stood there with their eyes closed.
*Woosh!*
Suddenly, as if they had discussed beforehand, they opened their eyes simultaneously with shining bright rays shooting out of their eyes. The four rays of light was like a radiating sharp sword, causing the void to ripple.
“Jiang Chen, come, the last move.”
Nanbei Chao lifted the Monarch Sword and pointed it to Jiang Chen.
Upon hearing this, the members of Nanbei Family breathed out a sigh of relief. Yet, everyone could not understand why Jiang Chen gave such a promise. With Nanbei Chao dead, he would’ve had the Nanbei Family massacred with his usual modus operandi.
It was inexplicable for him to accept Nanbei Chao’s request on protecting the Nanbei Family.
Of course they didn’t need to understand as this was something Jiang Chen wanted.
“Even though Nanbei Chao has died, he shall be reborn. This is his soul, I have erased all of his memories, take it back and let him be reborn in Nanbei Family. Take back the Monarch Sword and protect it, perhaps one day it will once again see the daylight. Bring Nanbei Chao’s remains as well and bury it well,” said Jiang Chen.
He delivered Nanbei Chao’s remains, soul and the Monarch Sword to Nanbei Taisheng.
Nanbei Taisheng was stunned by Jiang Chen’s action. He couldn’t understand why the ruthless Jiang Chen would do such a thing. Could it be that Jiang Chen had suddenly turned benevolent?
