Chapter 1427 - Solitude
“Understood!” The Monster-Slaying Palace’s elder was left at a loss for words, and she could only take her subordinates with her and leave.
“I didn’t expect this,” Duan Yun’s teasing voice rang out near Jiang Chen’s ears.
“Huh?”
“The little girl that followed you around in the past now possesses outstanding power,” Duan Yun said.
Jiang Chen chuckled bitterly. He recalled what Lin Yueru had said to him last, and he couldn’t help but wonder whether he should go over to her.
If Long Xing got to know that Jiang Chen was still alive, it would be unknown what he would do.
“Jiang Chen, follow me.”
“He had always pursued me, but I didn’t have any feelings for him.”
“In the first dozens of years, Long Xing’s actions were quite normal, and he was doing everything for the greater good.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded. The reason why he had cooperated with Long Xing was that he had a good character.
“But afterward, his ambition got bigger and bigger, and he started believing that he was the savior, and he dealt with all factions that didn’t obey him ruthlessly.”
“My greatest dispute with him was about the fact that he shouldn’t have taken merit for your achievements.”
“But he had informed me that this is what you wished and that you didn’t want anyone to learn about this,” as Lin Yueru spoke, she looked at Jiang Chen’s eyes, and asked, “Brother Chen, is this true?”
“It could be said that it’s true.” Jiang Chen chuckled bitterly, and explained clearly the situation.
“Does this mean that when you weren’t using Long Xing’s identity, you didn’t know that you were Long Xing?” Lin Yueru was quite surprised.
“That is right, the Blood Clan’s members can read other people’s memories, and even Blood Slaves can do it. This is why I had to be careful while carrying out such a great plan for saving the world.”
“Long Xing also didn’t know what I was doing, and it was only after the start of the Blood Clan’s invasion that he got information left behind by me, and it should be also then that he looked for you.”
Jiang Chen said, “What is terrifying was that even though my memory was sealed, the Blood Clan’s members were still able to get it and read it.”
When the Blood Clan’s members met by Jiang Chen in the Blood Sea Realm got to taste his fresh blood, they all managed to learn about the past’s truths.
“Is it so terrifying?” Lin Yueru hadn’t been in contact with Blood Clan’s members, and that was why she didn’t know much about this matter.
“That’s right.”
If the Blood Clan wasn’t so terrifying, its members wouldn’t have managed to turn a whole world into their blood bank, would they?
SIGH!
Lin Yueru heaved a long sigh. She felt aggrieved and sad as she talked about the past once again.
However, she quickly smiled brightly, and the reason behind this was quite simple. It was that she had gotten to see her brother Chen once again, and her wait for 500 years had been worthwhile.
Just after this, Jiang Chen and Lin Yueru talked about what they had experienced in the past 500 years, and Lin Yueru expressed how much she envied the Sovereign Spirit Reincarnators because they wouldn’t be tormented by long waiting.
Afterward, Lin Yueru said that she didn’t blame Jiang Chen for not choosing her. That was a great plan for saving the world. So how could one still harbor any selfish motives?
“It’s just that 500 years are really too long,” Lin Yueru leaned on Jiang Chen’s shoulder and spoke in a tired voice.
Lin Yueru didn’t need to recount her story in detail, as Jiang Chen could clearly feel that Lin Yueru had lived in solitude for much of the past years.
