Chapter 1508: Thinking Things Through

Jian Chen seemed to have crossed the Heavenly Enchantress’ bottom line when he mentioned the final matter . The Heavenly Enchantress’ presence immediately changed, and she stopped playing the zither .

At that moment, Jian Chen could clearly feel an iciness emanating from the Heavenly Enchantress . Her presence affected the surroundings, causing the temperature at the peak of Three Saint Mountain to plummet . It felt like winter was coming .

“Mind your own business,” the Heavenly Enchantress coldly said . She was expressionless but her eyes were frigid .

Jian Chen knew that the Heavenly Enchantress still resented Hao Wu . She did not have a good impression of Zaar Caiyun either, so Jian Chen immediately felt pained .

“Mu’er, did you know that when I was young, I was known as the prodigy of my clan . My father, my mother, and the caretaker, uncle Chang, as well as many other people in the clan held extremely high hopes for me . This was because I could learn anything and learn it quickly . You could even say that I had photographic memory, so I was better than anyone the same age as me . At that time, both my mother and father cared for me very much, treating me like a treasure in their hands . Until a few years later, when I took part in a test for Saint Force, the test revealed that I possess no talent for Saint Force due to an accident, so I became labeled as a cripple . I was unable to gather Saint Force within me and condense a Saint Weapon . This piece of news spread across the entire clan very quickly, revealing that the talented young master was actually a cripple . I fell from heaven to hell in a single stroke . My father Changyang Ba rarely visited me after that . In fact, I could count the number of times I saw him with my fingers during those years . Only my mother, sister, second aunt, and uncle Chang still cared for me like before .

“Although I was a young master of the Changyang clan, son of the current patriarch Changyang Ba, there were people who would come and bully me in the clan . They would make fun of me and harrass me, and my father never helped me at all, maybe because he forgot that he had me as a son . However, even though that happened, I do not resent my father, nor do I blame him because he is my father by blood . He gave me my life .

“In other words, it was me who valued this connection of family very much, because I had parents . Even though my father owed me a lot, I still found happiness because their existence is my happiness . On the Tian Yuan Continent, there are many orphans, where some of their parents even pass away as soon as their born due to certain circumstance . They never enjoy love or care when they were young . They might not even know what their parents look like . I understand their pain and know we are all better off compared to those people . At the very least, we have our seniors and family .

“Mu’er, I heard about your past from your father . I know you resent your father and a major part of that comes from your mother . Your father actually regrets the past very much as well, except it’s already happened . There’s nothing he can do by regretting it . He can’t go back in time . No one can change the past . At the same time, there are just some things you can never regain after you lose them . He’s still your father by blood . He’s your closest family in the world . ”

Jian Chen deeply sighed . He gazed at the vast ocean and suddenly became rather stern . He continued, “At the same time, the next invasion of the World of Forsaken Saints is growing closer and closer . I know their strength, and so do you . The disparity is just far too great . It’s like heaven and earth . We are at a disadvantage in overall battle prowess and peak strength . There might not even be any hope of emerging victorious during the next battle . The only hope for us is for a divine hall to block the entrance of the tunnel, but I still don’t know when the supreme divine hall in Mercenary City will be completely refined and whether or not we can successfully block the entrance at all .

“If we can’t stop the foreign world from invading, it will be our end . There will only be death . Even I am not confident I will surviving, but I know my friends and family will all die in that battle . The entire human race may end up dead due to that battle, including your father, Hao Wu . ”

What Jian Chen said near the end was like a bolt from the blue for the Heavenly Enchantress . It caused her to quiver and pale slightly . A deep rumble came from her zither as well . Three strings had snapped .

Jian Chen looked at the Heavenly Enchantress, “What I just said is the worst case scenario . Maybe I can survive the next battle, but many experts will definitely die on the continent . You might not be able to see your father ever again after that battle . During this limited period of peace, maybe you should spend these final moments with your family .

“You don’t know how valuable some things are when they are there . You only realize how important they are to you once you have lost them . When that happens, it will be too late…”

Jian Chen spoke very softly and very nonchalantly . However, the Heavenly Enchantress’ heart churned when she heard his words . She began to quiver even more intensely . She was caught in a struggle .

A while later, the Heavenly Enchantress slowly calmed down . She lowered her head and looked at the broken strings . Her eyes were filled with mixed emotions, confusion and sorrow . She slowly raised her right hand and gently rubbed the broken strings . In just a few seconds, the strings were fixed and reattached .

The Heavenly Enchantress slowly stood up . She gazed at the distant Tian Yuan Continent . The zither in her hands immediately turned into a blur and disappeared into her right hand as an extremely powerful energy . She left the island with her hands empty, flying toward the Tian Yuan Continent .

Jian Chen’s words had influenced . They had also made her understand that she might not be able to see her own father ever again after the next battle . As a result, she wanted to go to the Tian Yuan Continent to see him . She put her zither away because she did not want to visit him as the Heavenly Enchantress but as Shangguan Mu’er .

Jian Chen deeply sighed as he watched the Heavenly Enchantress grow further away . He smiled before sending a message to Shangguan Aojian, who currently lay on a boat . He then followed the Heavenly Enchantress .

The Heavenly Enchantress could build Space Gates, but she did not build ond this time . Instead, she flew, flying from Three Saint Island to the Tian Yuan Continent . Jian Chen stood on the Zi Ying Sword by her side .

Even though she was flying, she moved extremely fast, at a speed that completely surpassed what a Saint Emperor could reach .
