Chapter 1457 - To Move on
“Excuse me. I’m not here for that.”
Jiang Chen had to interrupt this aloof Leader the Venerable.
The crowd could not help but roll their eyes when they had heard him. He sounded as if he had been mistreated.
No matter what Zhang Tian was thinking, Red Cloud Venerable came to herself. She said, “You are not in a place where you can say no.”
Her response created a great disturbance. People were piqued with a strong interest in the relationship between the Leader the Venerable and Jiang Chen.
“You are not taking this seriously at all. How can Ling Long Celestial Palace compete with the three great forces this way?”
Zhang Tian could not put up with the huge difference. She had completely lost the spirit she had shown when she had just appeared.
Her question caught Jiang Chen unprepared. He had to look in his memory to find the answer.
“Because she failed to go through a ko. She died of the ko of love.”
Red Cloud Venerable said without waiting for Jiang Chen’s answer.
Jiang Chen had a complicated look on his face. He seemed to have got what she was trying to say.
“I got her inheritance, her memory, and her emotions. I know she used to live here.”
Jiang Chen was glad to hear that because it meant Xiao Nuo had been able to distinguish herself from the Sovereign Spirit.
“There was a man she loved so much, but in the end, to become a strong person, she broke up with that man and moved on.”
“However, when she was going through the ko, she failed to bring her emotions under control. They finally killed her.”
“The strong woman of her generation died this way.”
Jiang Chen was shocked by her narration.
Five hundred Sovereign Spirits meant five hundred Venerable Sovereigns died.
As a result, the reincarnations of the Sovereign Spirits would be affected by the same thing that had caused the Venerable Sovereigns’ deaths.
These reincarnations would live in the shadow of those death causes.
If they could manage to get rid of the influences, they would be able to break through to Divine Kings.
If they could not, Venerable Sovereign would be the farthest they could get, and they would spend their entire lives in fear.
In his plan, Jiang Chen had never been so naïve to believe those five hundred people would all become Divine Kings.
He knew only less than one-tenth would finally achieve it.
“So, in your opinion, should I or should not never fall in love again and move on?” asked Xiao Nuo.
This was a tricky question. It was almost like a hot potato.
“Red Cloud Venerable chose to move on, but the result proved she was wrong,” Jiang Chen said. He did not sound very confident.
“Maybe she didn’t get over the man completely. Maybe she wasn’t resolute enough so that she couldn’t be totally emotionless,” Xiao Nuo said with emphasis.
Jiang Chen was speechless. He did not know how to answer.
“If you really think I’m the Xiao Nuo you know, you should know what I will do.”
But Xiao Nuo did not give him any chance to stay silent. She went on speaking.
Jiang Chen surely knew Xiao Nuo was a competitive person. Maybe she could forget about the thing about moving on and stay with him for some time, but over time, problems would arise.
The palace went into silence. There were only the sounds of them breathing, with different energies and frequencies.
Xiao Nuo let out a long sigh. She said unhappily, “You shouldn’t have given the Sovereign Soul to me.”
However, her blame inspired Jiang Chen.
He stopped worrying and hesitating. Lifting the curtain, he strode over.
“You… What are you up to?”
If there were other people here and they saw the legendary Red Cloud Venerable panicking like this, they would be greatly surprised.
Jiang Chen did not speak. He walked ahead determinedly. Then, putting his arm around Red Cloud Venerable’s waist, he kissed her soft red lips.
Xiao Nuo raised her hands, trying to push this person away with effort.
But when she was about to do that, she hesitated.
It was exactly this hesitation that made her completely fall to him. Her pretty face flushed.
After a good while, the two finally separated, gasping for air.
“Moving on? Over me? What the hell!? We had a wedding. We kowtowed to heaven and the ground. We kowtowed to our parents. You are my wife!” Jiang Chen said loudly.
Xiao Nuo’s face flushed more. She rolled her eyes, showing the white of her eyes. She said as if she was accusing Jiang Chen, “You are my destiny.”
