Chapter 1398 “The Proud Little Glutton (2)”
Chu Yi God slowly approached the grumpy Keeper: “What did you promise me first? You clearly said you will only imprison her if I help secure the safety of the Celestial Realm! I believed you and moved against my one and only love! But you went after her life!”
Does these people really not understand why I resent them?
How ridiculous!
They actually think I will still help them deal with Yan’er!
Showing an ironic smile aimed at no one but himself, Chu Yi God shakes his own head to remove some of the bitterness in his heart.
I got the world in my mind, that’s true, but I would never want her to die for that. Even if it’s a life of imprisonment or a loss of memory, it’s still better than what happened back then.
Keeper Ling couldn’t utter a word under that blaming gaze. It’s true, they did lie to their liege, just that they never thought his feelings for her would go that deep so they never thought anything of it.
“Celestial Lord, I…” Fumbling for a word, the old grumpy elder instinctively takes a step back at that forceful stare, “I had no other choice back then. Bai Yan’s existence…. her existence will endanger the entire Celestial realm. Only when she’s dead will I be at ease.”
Openly sneering at the shamelessness of this old man, Chu Yi God loses usual cool air and becomes more humanistic: “It’s pointless to keep talking. I will not help you hurt her, and if you push me, I might do something you will regret!”
Shock and fear gripped Keeper Ling like a haunted ghost would when strangling its victim. He couldn’t accept this. It’s one thing to be unable to get the Celestial Lord’s help, but to be threatened with retaliation if they moved against Bai Yan was unimaginable!
After a long while of this awkward silence, the old timer knew he was finished here. Turning around, he ran for the bottom of this mountain without looking back like someone that was fleeing.
Unbeknownst to the grumpy Keeper though, Chu Yi God wasn’t entirely unaffected by what he himself said there. In fact, the Celestial Lord’s expression would grow heavier at each step until a bitter and helpless smile took hold.
I won’t make the same mistake again, I won’t! It was that one wrong step that ruined my happiness! I can’t let it happen again, not like that!
“Haha, I will forsake the world if I must if it means you can gain happiness Yan’er! I will never make that stupid blunder, not unless my soul be thrusts into the depths of hell and burned for all eternity!” Slowly but surely, Chu Yi God’s small murmuring laugh evolves into a hysterical fit that made him lose all of the surreal air that should be unique to this man. “But I won’t give up on you, not this time. Whatever happiness Di Cang can give you, I can too! I’m going to pursue you again, and I won’t fail you, not ever again!”
In the end, the Celestial Lord still believes he has a chance to win over Bai Yan’s heart. In light of all he’s done, in light of him indirectly murdering Bai Yan, in light of him causing her child’s death, he still believes he has a chance! If this wasn’t selfish greed then what was?
