Chapter 1701 - Don’t Come Back Until You Are Already a Venerable Sovereign
Defeating Di Juekong and Jiang Chen’s exile were two separate things.
Those supreme-venerable-level people around the Celestial Palace did not leave immediately. They were expecting Jiang Chen to show up.
The exile was not just a threat. They would not leave unworriedly by simply giving Jiang Chen a deadline to go away.
They would force Jiang Chen to leave the Boundless Continent in person!
“Go to the Heavenly Sword Continent. Your Sword Doctrine will be further improved there.”
In the Celestial Palace, Jian Yi, who was always a cold person, suggested Jiang Chen warmheartedly, which was unexpected at all.
Ye Qiu and Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster threw him a surprised look.
Since he had joined the Sacred Institute, Jian Yi had never been close to anyone, although he had not been rejecting people.
“Jiang Chen, are you going to the Heavenly Sword?” asked Ye Qiu.
He also heard Jian Yi’s suggestion. The Heavenly Sword Continent was not a bad option.
“No. I’m going to the Sacred Spirit Continent.” But Jiang Chen had his own plan.
“You want to meet your lover there, don’t you?” Xiao Nuo looked as if she had seen through him.
“If I had said I was going to the Heavenly Sword, you would have said your younger sister is more important to me than you are.”
Jiang Chen did not bite the bait.
Tianyin was on the Sacred Spirit Continent, while Yueru was on the Heavenly Sword.
But this was not the main reason Jiang Chen had made this decision.
The Heavenly Sword was already a complete and stable world. It was perfect in all ways.
However, that was exactly why Jiang Chen should not go there.
Its perfectness meant fewer opportunities.
By comparison, the situation of the Sacred Spirit Continent was more complicated.
The Dragon Realm and the Monster Realm were both connected to the Sacred Spirit Continent. Not to mention the fact that there were killings everywhere because of territorial disputes.
That was the kind of place good for adventures.
“Let’s go then.” Ye Qiu got serious.
“Today?!”
Xiao Nuo raised her eyebrow. She got pissed when she had realized Ye Qiu and Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster would not leave until this thing had been completely settled.
“Jiang Chen saved the world twice!” she said unhappily.
Ye Qiu and Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster smiled, embarrassed. They did not know what to say.
“Xiao Nuo, stop. Seniors have their own difficulties,” said Jiang Chen.
Xiao Nuo felt wronged, thinking she had been speaking for him, not for herself. She said, “With your actual age, you can be their ancestor. You don’t need to be so polite to them.”
Ye Qiu and Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster were reminded that Jiang Chen came from five hundred years ago.
Jiang Chen showed a bitter smile. He gestured the two from the Sacred Institute to wait for him outside. He needed to coax Xiao Nuo first.
Ye Qiu agreed. He went outside with Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster.
“Why haven’t you taken Jiang Chen away? Is the Sacred Institute being too easy on him?”
Among the supreme-venerable-level figures waiting outside, someone from the Sovereign Soul Palace protested unhappily.
“If you are unhappy with us, you go there to take him out,” said Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster, pissed.
The person from the Sovereign Soul Palace flinched right away.
Di Juekong’s ending was still vivid in their minds. He had just been taken away by the Wizard Race.
And Jiang Chen was not the only person in the Celestial Palace. The Red Cloud Venerable was also there. Who of them would have the nerve to go inside?
“The Wall of the World will last two more years at most. And during these two years, the calamity caused by the Blood Race will be coming.”
“No matter whether I’m exiled or not, I’m going to achieve Venerable Sovereign in these two years.”
Jiang Chen tried to persuade her with reason and sway her with emotions.
However, it was the Red Cloud Venerable that he was facing.
“I know how eloquent you are. If you want to persuade me this way, you are making a huge mistake.” Xiao Nuo did not buy it.
“How should I persuade you then?” Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Xiao Nuo smiled with a blaming look. Tucking her arms around his waist, she pulled him closer. She said in a gentle voice, “Kiss me!”
Then, under numerous people’s surprised and envious gazes, the two kissed in public.
Before the kiss was over, Xiao Nuo pushed Jiang Chen to his chest.
Jiang Chen was pushed out of the Celestial Palace before he even realized it.
“If you insist on going, don’t come back until you are already a Venerable Sovereign.”
He heard Xiao Nuo’s highly recognizable voice.
