Chapter 1135 “Celestial Realm’s Faction (5)”
“Thank you,” Yun Ruo Xi graces them with a genuine smile, “You are all true patriots of the Celestial Realm. When I ascend onto the supreme throne, I will certainly not forget you all.”
Now that’s what they’re all waiting for. Immediately, a round of pleased smiles were shown across these Monarchs faces.
“Wonderful, I hope Miss Ruo Xi wouldn’t forget today’s promise. We will return after we finish off those from the Demon Realm.” The middle-aged man cusps his hand as a show of respect before rushing off towards the darkness.
Quickly, the rest of the group were also gone from view, each heading off in the general direction of where the Demon City was in their own separate fashion. They’re all lords and masters of their own territory. Even if they’re working together to take down a common enemy, they aren’t going to rely on one another to watch their own backs.
Pleased with herself, Yun Ruo Xi was also ready to take her own leave now since there’s nothing more for herself to do. However, right as she’s about to take a step back to leave this room, her eyes suddenly caught wind of a familiar figure up in the air. The man had a proud and divine air to him, beautiful yet lonely like the world couldn’t taint his very existence.
“You…” The initial shock soon changed to joy as emotions ran wild int hose eyes, “You’re back?”
He’s finally back!
Excitement filled the woman’s heart as a flush of red covered those cheeks like some young maiden who’s never tried love in her life. She’s shy and timid, the perfect picture of that when facing the man she loves.
“You go back to the Celestial Palace.”
Sadly, the first words coming out of Chu Yi God’s mouth shattered the illusion instantly, leaving her heart frozen and broken.
“Why” she stutters this out with dryness in the throat, “Why should I go back? The Demon Realm is already attacking us in the Celestial Realm, why should I?”
“Go back, this time the voice sounded commanding and not a request.
Whatever fire she felt died in that second. Clenching her fist in frustration, Yun Ruo Xi closes her eyes in acceptance as the gradual memories of their first encounter resurfaces again.
It was a fine day like any other in the past. At the time, he was spoiling another girl by carefully removing the peach blossoms from her hair and the smile he made was oh so gentle like nothing else. Perhaps Chu Yi God would never know this, but since then Yun Ruo Xi had fallen for him due to that smile. It’s like a drug to her to the point she could no long extricate herself from him.
But why, why does his eyes only have her in his view and not me? Even if that woman is already dead, he still can’t forget her….
“Yi God,” slowly striding forward with pain in those eyes, she didn’t want to make this difficult but had to for her own sake. “Is she… not dead yet?”
The man didn’t answer her, only floating in the sky silently with a face that couldn’t be read.
“It’s because she’s alive that you won’t let me go make trouble for the demons, isn’t it?” A borderline mad laugh escapes the woman now tear stricken face, causing that beautiful contour to turn ugly and unsightly.
“Why do you treat me like so? I loved you for so many years and waited a millennium for you, why are you so insistent on her? Is it because you knew her first?”
The outburst finally earned her a glance from Chu Yi God; however, those eyes weren’t of comfort or warmth, it’s a chilling gaze that made the woman freeze all over.
Closing her eyes again, Yun Ruo Xi knew this was how it’s going to be, but still, to be so inferior to the dead only made it that much worse.
“I understand then… I won’t go making trouble for the Demon Realm anymore, but you should know the Keepers won’t stand down just because I’m stopping.”
