Chapter 2147: The Couple Reunited (1/2)
“Jian Chen’s talent is monstrous, and his rate of growth is just too fast. In just three to four hundred years, he has grown from a mortal to a Godking, and his battle prowess is so great that he can kill supreme Godkings from the Godkings’ Throne as an early Godking. He hasn’t reached the end of the path as a Godking yet, so there’s a lot of room for growth in the future. With his current battle prowess, I’ll be nowhere near his opponent once he reaches peak Godking,” thought Shui Yunlan. Her feelings were mixed as a gleam of light flickered through her cold pupils.
“But why does he have to be a part of the Immortals’ World and the successor of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens? The esteemed Ice Goddess was injured by the Grand Exalt of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens in the past, and she still hasn’t recovered. Her situation is unknown. She hasn’t even paid any attention to the traitors of the Ice Goddess Hall. Jian Chen is still an enemy of our Ice Goddess hall in the end. I wonder if exposing my identity and throwing the Snow Goddess into constant danger to help Jian Chen was the right decision or not…”
“Sigh. Whatever. What Mo Tianyun said in the past was not unreasonable. Now that the Ice Goddess Hall faces an unprecedented danger, almost facing death, is there still any use for me to dwell on these grievances? We don’t even know whether the Ice Goddess Hall can survive. The priority is for her majesty to recover her strength. Only once her majesty has recovered her peak strength can we turn the situation around.”
Shui Yunlan sighed inside. Not only did Jian Chen’s rate of growth amaze her, but it also threatened her and filled her with much unease.
Jian Chen, on the other hand, became disappointed after learning that Changyang Mingyue had not entered the Neptunean Divine Palace with Shui Yunlan. At this moment, he could not help but think of Changyang Mingyue’s familiar face. His childhood memories flashed before him like a fountain as if they were completely new. Even after several centuries, he could still remember them like they had happened yesterday.
He could clearly remember that once he was determined to be a cripple who could not cultivate during his youth, his status in the Changyang clan had fallen from a dazzling star to someone that even regular servants could scoff at and harass whenever they wanted to. During that time, his father, Changyang Ba, had grown cold on him. In the huge Changyang clan, there was only his sister, Changyang Mingyue, who cared for him the most back then aside from his mother. She took care of him right down to the smallest details, thinking about everything for him.
In the eyes of many people, this relationship as siblings might have been something that could not be any more ordinary. However, to Jian Chen who had experienced a life as an orphan, it warmed his heart and touched him deeply. He remembered it and was captivated by it, so it became a memory firmly embedded in the depths of his soul such that he would never forget about it.
Ever since he separated from Changyang Mingyue on the Tian Yuan Continent, Jian Chen had never met her again. He longed for his sister.
“Jian Chen, do you come from the Tian Yuan Continent?” At this moment, Rui Di asked Jian Chen nervously as he stared at him enthusiastically.
A gleam of light immediately flashed through Jian Chen’s eyes when Rui Di mentioned the Tian Yuan Continent. There should have only been a handful of people who knew about the Tian Yuan Continent in the Saints’ World, so how did the person before him know? Perhaps…
“You are?” Jian Chen looked at Rui Di.
“We’re Rui Di and Zhi Ye from the Sect of Dragons and Phoenixes. The Sect of Dragons and Phoenixes was the Dragon and Phoenix clans that the Winged Tiger God brought to the Saints’ World from the Beast God Continent,” Audriana introduced Rui Di and Zhi Ye to Jian Chen.
“What? You’re the Dragon and Phoenix clans that left the Beast God Continent in the past?” Jian Chen was extremely surprised when he learnt who Rui Di and Zhi Ye were. But soon after, he became overjoyed, and a thought crossed his head silently.
He had just been worrying about how to find Rui Jin and Hong Lian’s clansmen that had left the Tian Yuan Continent a million years ago in the vast Saints’ World. He had never thought he would come across the people from the Sect of Dragons and Phoenixes out of pure coincidence during his trip to the Neptunean Divine Palace. This filled him with both surprise and happiness. He was in high spirits.
