Chapter 1557: Still Alive

Several Saint Emperors walked in from outside. They handed over the Space Rings the dead Origin realm experts from the foreign world had been wearing and also reported the casualties of the four races.

The Tian Yuan Continent had emerged with a close victory. They had driven back the World of Forsaken Saints, but they had also suffered extremely heavy losses. There were several tens of thousand Saint Rulers, Saint Kings, and Saint Emperors who had taken part in the battle, close to a hundred thousand. However, only a few thousand people had survived the battle. Ninety-nine percent had died on the battlefield.

As for the puppets revived from Saint Weapons, they had all passed away. Not a single one was left.

Jian Chen saw many familiar names among the list of people who had passed away. There were great elders from protector clans, ancestors from ancient clans, the Imperial Protectors or Ancestral Emperors from the three great empires, and so on.

Some of the protector clans had even lost all their great elders or all their Sainthood experts. Very few people survived.

Only Changyang Zu Yunxiao and Changyang Zu Yeyun managed to survive from the Changyang protector clan, but they were heavily injured, basically hanging onto their live with a thread. Changyang Zu Xiao and the great elders from the other two branches had all passed away.

Jian Chen immediately felt heavy inside when he received the news. Sorrow filled his face as tears began to well up in his eyes. He did not really care about the people from the other two branches, but Changyang Zu Xiao was his great grandfather. Because of the Saints’ Fruit in the past, he had fallen out with the two other branches, which were directed by Changyang Qing Yun. Changyang Zu Xiao had fought against Changyang Qing Yun in the miniature world. By using his Saint Tier Battle Skill on Changyang Qing Yun, he was willing to risk the collapse of the miniature world. In the end, he even made the Zu branch break away from the protector clan before settling down in Lore City. However, he never brought up the matter of the Saints’ Fruit for himself, which had really touched Jian Chen.

Changyang Zu Xiao was a benevolent and powerful man in Jian Chen’s heart. He was also the great-grandfather Jian Chen respected the most. Jian Chen felt extremely painful now that he had passed away.

Even now, Jian Chen could still clearly remember Changyang Zu Xiao’s benevolent smile as well as when Changyang Zu Xiao fought against Changyang Qing Yun without any hesitation to protect him.

“Great-grandfather, rest easy. I will definitely personally take revenge for you,” Jian Chen murmured with a soft voice. However, he was unable to contain the deep sorrow within him. He knew that Changyang Zu Xiao’s benevolent face would only exist in his memories now. He would never be able to see that face again or hear his familiar voice.

Changyang Zu Xiao’s soul had been wiped out. Even as a Class 9 Radiant Saint Master, Jian Chen could not revive him.
