Chapter 1458 - Leading a Dog’s Life till This Day
As the planner of the Sovereign Soul project, Jiang Chen actually was not worried that Xiao Nuo could become another person.
A Sovereign Soul did not have self-consciousness.
Even if it did, it was actually the reincarnation’s inside devil created due to the influence of the memory. The reincarnation hence misunderstood himself or herself for that Sovereign Venerable.
That was why Jiang Chen ruled out those who were not resolute enough at the time of candidate selection.
Fortunately, the world five hundred years ago had few resources, for which those who could stand out were all the best of the best, who had experienced lots of sufferings and were hence mentally mature enough not to be shaken easily.
Especially Xiao Nuo, he made her receive the Red Cloud Venerable’s Sovereign Spirit because he trusted her.
“Heaven and Earth have no preference. They allow the ten thousand things to flourish freely like grass and dogs. In the eyes of Heaven and Earth, we’re the same as grasses and trees.”
“To be honest, there were people who cursed your entire family and all of your ancestors.”
“Back then, no one knew the Wall of the World was deployed by you. Later, your father came forward to take responsibility.”
“What? You mean, my father knew it was me?”
Jiang Chen was shocked. Even he did not know what he had done, because everything was done through Long Xing.
“Yes. Your father apologized to all of the living creatures in the Sacred Zone for what you had done.”
“Father.”
Tears welled up in Jiang Chen’s eyes. His father was a tough man. Jiang Chen had viewed him as his idol since childhood.
“There were lots of complaints at the beginning, but in the end, under the oppression of the Blood Race, they all fought together. They got to know your good intention and the existence of Blood Slaves. Besides, you were already dead, so no one bothered to curse you anymore.”
“But I’ve been leading a dog’s life until today,” Jiang said in a self-mocking manner.
“You brought hope to the Black Yellow Great World and saved numerous lives. And you are still alive. There are more things you can do.”
Stroking Jiang Chen’s cheek gently, Xiao Nuo soothed him in a soft voice.
“And then?”
Jiang Chen calmed down. He wanted to know more.
“The Blood Race only had one target, which was the Sacred Zone, so they were pissed. They only sent a spearhead into the Sacred Zone, so we still had the chance to fight with them.”
“There was so much blood that it flew into a blood river. The Sacred Zone became an abyss of darkness. Everything was ruined.”
“My master and your father knew the Sacred Zone would end up being eliminated anyway. They didn’t have the heart to see me die with the Sacred Zone, so they used an occult method on me, and I survived.”
In other words, before Xiao Nuo fell asleep, her master Southern Sea Heavenly Monarch and Jiang Chen’s father, Yan Monarch, were still alive.
According to Xiao Nuo, the war between the Sacred Zone and the Blood Race lasted for a few years.
Numerous people died or were injured. Many people he knew sacrificed their lives.
All of those names made Jiang Chen feel heavy. He could not even breathe smoothly.
“The damned Blood Race!”
In the end, Jiang Chen shouted in anger. The hatred in his eyes was extremely strong.
Xiao Nuo gazed at him in silence. She knew it would be better for him to express his anger than to bury everything inside.
“Your father and my master, maybe they are still alive.”
Xiao Nuo suddenly said.
“Oh?”
Jiang Chen thought of the Evil Blood Emperor he had met in the World of Bloody Sea.
His father was still alive after the final attack.
“Since the Blood Race invaded the Sacred Zone, the Black Yellow Great World and the outside world were connected again. The Blood Race isn’t the only one who can come in. And it’s not the only one who can leave, either.”
“I heard during the war that reinforcements were coming from the outside world to assist us secretly.”
It was a pity that Xiao Nuo did not know any details.
At the thought of the force that took Xue’er away, Jiang Chen started to ponder.
His brows smoothed after a good while. He had not figured it out yet, but he stopped struggling because even if he knew the answer, his current strength would not allow him to do anything useful for the moment.
So, not knowing was actually a better choice.
“Xiao Nuo, I came this time to ask you for a favor.” Jiang Chen brought up the real reason that had brought him here.
