Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the end, the soul stones became transparent because all the energy contained within them fell on the crystalline box. Jiang Chen walked up to the side of the crystalline box and stared at the beauty within it. Even though all the energy rays had entered Xiao Nuo’s body, it still didn’t seem like she was going to wake up. The crystalline box had even lost its l.u.s.ter and became dim.

Upon witnessing such a sight, Xiao Qin, who had a guilty conscience, moved away. She wanted to disappear!

The infuriated Jiang Chen waved his hand. A golden beam penetrated Xiao Qin’s chest and took her life.

The Three Lives Divine Art had failed because it had been damaged, and Xiao Nuo was unable to wake up. Jiang Chen didn’t have any way of dealing with this, and he could only look on helplessly as everything occurred. When Jiang Chen was about to fall into despair, the scarlet clouds that had stayed calmly within his body emitted an intense reaction. He stood up straight, threw his head back, and opened his mouth. It seemed as if the scarlet clouds burst out of his throat and quickly flew into Xiao Nuo’s body.

The crystalline box shone brightly once again, and Jiang Chen could feel a vigorous life force emanating from Xiao Nuo’s body. Jiang Chen was delighted, and, when all the scarlet clouds had entered Xiao Nuo’s body, she stood up in the box.

She quickly appeared before him, standing straight and tall. She spread out her arms, and her face, with her eyes still closed, seemed dignified and holy. An intense wave of pressure emanated from her, and the people outside the hall couldn’t help but kneel down.

Jiang Chen resisted with great difficulty such an uncomfortable feeling, while delight disappeared from his face. It could be discerned from such an aura that the Xiao Nuo in front of him wasn’t really Xiao Nuo, but the Sovereign Spirit in the scarlet clouds. Jiang Chen recalled the Sovereign Spirit Palace’s plan. It was always other people who ended up inheriting a Sovereign Spirit. But now, the opposite had occurred, and a Sovereign Spirit directly took over Xiao Nuo’s body.

Even though Xiao Nuo still existed in the world, was this Xiao Nuo really his own Xiao Nuo?

After a long time pa.s.sed, Xiao Nuo opened her eyes. She had an apathetic gaze, which didn’t have any human nature in it and was only a divine nature of an aloof being above all other beings.

“How many years have pa.s.sed?” Xiao Nuo moved her lips and spoke in the ancient language of the distant past.

No one, including Jiang Chen, could understand it.

“It’s turned out like this.” A pensive look appeared on the Sovereign Spirit’s face, and she now spoke in the same language as they did.

Upon witnessing this, Jiang Chen realized that the Sovereign Spirit could read Xiao Nuo’s memory. He opened his mouth. But he didn’t know what he should ask.

“Her soul suffered serious damages, and it isn’t complete any longer.” The Sovereign Spirit met his gaze, and it seemed like she was able to read his mind.

“Can she still be saved?” Jiang Chen spoke anxiously.

“Can you save and bring back the former person that you were?” The Sovereign Spirit asked, while her gaze shone brightly.

As Jiang Chen faced her gaze, he felt like couldn’t hide from her, and all his secrets would be exposed while in front of her. He quickly realized her implication and was dumbfounded thoroughly. The Sovereign Spirit was referring to the former Jiang Chen, who owned his current body. That person had suffered a miserable death because his Holy Veins were s.n.a.t.c.hed, and a certain Jiang Chen from 500 years ago took over this body.

“I’m myself.” Jiang Chen wasn’t willing to admit such a cruel fact, and he shouted loudly.

Their memories had fused together, while they had the same soul. Regardless if it was Jiang Chen from 500 years ago or the current one, they were still the same person. This was why Jiang Chen could recognize Jiang Qingyu and Gao Ming as his parents without any qualms.

“So, what is the current me?” The Sovereign Spirit asked and muttered to herself, Xiao Nuo? Or Venerable Hong Yun?

“Is it really hopeless? Xiao Nuo!” Jiang Chen wasn’t willing to give up, and he shouted at her.

“I’m Venerable Hong Yun!” The Sovereign Spirit had a quick response, and she seemed like an angered heavenly G.o.d. The whole hall quaked! “But I’m also Xiao Nuo.”

Xiao Nuo didn’t wait for Jiang Chen to speak, and her expression changed once again greatly, as did her tone. While Jiang Chen sighted a glimmer of hope, such familiar-looking traits that belonged to Xiao Nuo disappeared.

“I can probably recognize this body’s ident.i.ty and stop making a distinction between us. If such a feeling reached a certain intensity, then the people you want may come back,” the Sovereign Spirit said. It wasn’t Jiang Chen alone who was vexed and confused, it was also the case for the Sovereign Spirit. Jiang Chen couldn’t feel any joy due to this because he wanted the complete Xiao Nuo.

All of a sudden, the void around the Sovereign Spirit started twisting, and a black hole appeared behind her. “This realm can’t accommodate me, and the Sacred Spirits in the dark want to send me away.” The Sovereign Spirit didn’t panic, as if she had already expected this.

Jiang Chen didn’t give any response because he was caught up in self-blame. It was only because he was too confident that he had ended up allowing such a matter to occur.

“Jiang Chen.” When the Sovereign Spirit was about to be sent away, a familiar-sounding call could be heard from the black hole.

When Jiang Chen raised his head to take a look, the black hole had already disappeared, and it was also the case for the Sovereign Spirit. Jiang Chen couldn’t discern whether such a cry had really happened or whether it was a misperception.

When Jiang Chen walked out of the hall, the hearts of everyone outside s.h.i.+vered. The expressionless Jiang Chen emanated a sharp and ruthless aura, and as he strode forward step by step, it became more intense.

Xiao Jiantian and the others who were still taking advantage of such a chance to recover were startled. They didn’t utter a single word, and they ran away at their highest speeds. However, before they flew high in the sky, Jiang Chen shuttled between those seven people, and by the time Jiang Chen went back to his former place, Xiao Jiantian and the others had sustained deadly injuries.

“Hateful!” They all wore a resentful expressions and ended up falling heavily on the ground and losing their lives.

“Jiang Chen?” Yiya summoned her courage and strode forward. She was also scared by the chilly air emanating from Jiang Chen.

“I will go to kill someone.” Jiang Chen left behind such words before he disappeared from the crowd’s sight.

…..

After three days had pa.s.sed, shocking news spread in the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm. Jiang Chen, who had been the prey of the Human Emperor, started hunting down the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor, who had mastered the four linked arrows technique, couldn’t deal with Jiang Chen, and he could only flee with his whole might.

Moreover, Jiang Chen was still able to find the Human Emperor’s location every time for some unknown reason, and this was why the Human Emperor lost his advantage, which allowed him to shoot his opponents while hiding 1,000 miles from them. The Human Emperor wanted to leave the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm. But he couldn’t achieve it because Jiang Chen pursued him relentlessly, and if the Human Emperor came to a stop, Jiang Chen would launch crazy attacks at him. The arrogant and savage Human Emperor had never been in such a difficult situation.

When this news spread, the crowd couldn’t understand what had happened. How could Jiang Chen manage to crush the Human Emperor? There weren’t yet many pieces of news related to the Soul Palace spreading around.

On this day, the Human Emperor was pursued until the edge of the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm and had no room for escape. “How did you manage to know my location?” The Human Emperor looked at a shooting star–like black dot at the end of his line of sight, and he couldn’t help but become fl.u.s.tered.

Jiang Chen didn’t explain anything, and he still wore an ice-cold look. He was in a bad mood, and he needed to kill someone to give vent to his anger.

“Just listen to me, regardless of what happened inside, it isn’t related to me, and I can make it up to you.” The Human Emperor was really frightened by Jiang Chen’s current look, and it wasn’t difficult for him to guess that Jiang Chen had gone through something awful in the Soul Palace.

Jiang Chen waved his right hand, and the Immeasurable Ruler took a sword form.

“d.a.m.n!” The Human Emperor became anxious, and he clenched his teeth, before he used five Human Emperor Arrows. When he met Jiang Chen outside for the first time, he tried using four linked arrows. But Jiang Chen managed to dodge all of them. Now, he didn’t have any way left for dealing with this issue, and he could only forcefully use five arrows. Even if he didn’t succeed, he could still injure both himself and his enemy. Moreover, since Jiang Chen charged forward at him without even bothering to move around and dodge them, the Human Emperor was delighted.
