Chapter 1564 (Raw 1546): On the Verge of Leaving

On the rock that remained of the shattered planet, Xiao Chen looked at Chu Chaoyun and said indifferently, “It is impossible that you do not know about my strength. If it were before I entered the Azure Dragon Palace, I might not have been as strong as you. However, I already entered the Azure Dragon Palace and formally obtained the bloodline inheritance, breaking past the shackles of Prime. Now, no one in this Kunlun Realm is a match for me.

“Very long ago, you said that there would be a final battle between us. Even though you knew that you were weaker than me, you still stubbornly insisted on fighting. Previously, I could not understand why.

“However, I finally figured it out just now. In the end, in the depths of your heart, you are still not willing to destroy the entire Kunlun Realm to fulfill your ambitions. If you really wanted to do that, the time I was fighting the Demonic God was your best chance.

“However, you did not. This proves that from the very start, your greatest goal is not to destroy the Kunlun Realm. What are you trying to do?

“You are seeking death!”

Towards the end, Xiao Chen’s voice became louder, emphasizing every word he said.

When Chu Chaoyun heard that, he immediately laughed, “You are right. Do it. By having you kill me, I will be at peace. At least, I would not feel too guilty towards those old fogies of the dynasty.”

Xiao Chen did not do anything. He said indifferently, “However, I do not understand. Why are you seeking death?”

Chu Chaoyun showed no expression on his face; his eyes appeared dead. He replied calmly, “I’m tired. Do it. I have been waiting for this day for a long time already. I can only say, Xiao Chen, you did not disappoint me.”

Xiao Chen looked at Chu Chaoyun and found the other party pitiful.

For every life in the world, who could avoid dying?

However, some people wished to die from the moment they were born; they were born to seek death.

“Your heart is filled with the intention of dying. Do you not have any regrets?”

“Regrets? None left. After I merged the three thousand lower realms, existences above Martial Emperor could no longer enter. Only the people in there can come out. Outsiders cannot go in. The Tianwu Dynasty has already been reestablished. Since that group of old fogies loves dreaming, I gave them a dream.

“I already fulfilled what I promised Leng Yue. I also accomplished the final wish of the last Tianwu Emperor. After fighting with you, I, Chu Chaoyun have no regrets.”

Studying the other party’s calm expression, Xiao Chen said calmly, “You are lying. Don’t you want to leave and ask the first-generation Tianwu Emperor why he abandoned you all?”

Chu Chaoyun smiled on hearing this. “Honestly, this is the reason that I’m the most unwilling to use as a reason for living. You have no idea how strong he is, much less how horrifying his background is.”

After pausing for a while, Chu Chaoyun revealed a self-deprecatory expression. “He is not a person of the Kunlun Realm in the first place. From the very beginning, he established the Tianwu Dynasty as his springboard to leave the Kunlun Realm. He never cared for the survival of the Tianwu Dynasty. It is just a tool to him.”

Xiao Chen felt somewhat shocked. Unexpectedly, there was such a secret about the Tianwu Emperor.

“Send me on my way. I no longer have any regrets. I’m really tired already,” Chu Chaoyun said once again, urging Xiao Chen to make his move.

Xiao Chen remained silent for a long time.

Just as Chu Chaoyun gave up and prepared to take action himself, energy suddenly restrained his body.

It was Xiao Chen. He had made a move. However, he did not kill Chu Chaoyun. Instead, he healed him.

Chu Chaoyun was a Prime, to begin with, and possessed the ability to recover quickly. With an external force assisting, his injuries healed at an even faster rate.

Just as all of Chu Chaoyun’s injuries were about to heal completely, Xiao Chen waved his hand and grasped the divine object that the first Tianwu Emperor had left behind.

Chu Chaoyun’s expression changed slightly. “What are you trying to do?”

“Nothing much, just sending you away from this abandoned land. For some things, it is better to ask personally. After you go out and truly have no more regrets, we can have another fight. In life, we cannot always keep living for others. Chu Chaoyun, do not disappoint me. I really do not have many true opponents in my life!”

As Xiao Chen restrained Chu Chaoyun, he activated the divine object, the palm-sized sword, and it immediately merged with Chu Chaoyun’s body.

Vigorous energy started bursting out from inside Chu Chaoyun’s body. His clothes fluttered about as he showed a twisted expression, clearly in pain.

Black lines appeared on Chu Chaoyun’s face, looking like tentacles trying to come out.

That was the side effect of the light and dark energies clashing.

“Whoosh!”

A sharp sword light shot out from Chu Chaoyun’s body. This caught Xiao Chen off guard, knocking him away.

The divine object slowly melted into Chu Chaoyun’s body, gradually suppressing the light and dark energies.

Then, Chu Chaoyun soared, his body giving off melodious sword hums.

“Buzz!” The barrier between realms tore open, and Chu Chaoyun turned into a beam of resplendent light that illuminated this boundless Starry Heavens with boundless brilliance.

This light radiated from Chu Chaoyun’s body. As the light spread out, all the stars in the entire Starry Heavens seemed to dim.

At this moment, every cultivator in the Kunlun Realm saw this strange scene.

In the dark sky, there was only one resplendent star flickering and giving off light.

Chu Chaoyun’s body kept soaring higher. Vaguely, it seemed like the entire world grew farther and farther away from him.

Now that the momentum was already established, the restriction that Xiao Chen left on Chu Chaoyun’s body no longer existed. However, Chu Chaoyun could not change anything; he was being dragged out of this world by this divine object.

Within the dark space, Chu Chaoyun sought out Xiao Chen. The other party’s figure and appearance slowly blurred in his vision.

“In life, we cannot always keep living for others,” Chu Chaoyun muttered, repeating Xiao Chen’s words.

In hindsight, it seemed like he had always been in control of the whole situation, plotting and dealing with every matter. Everything had gone according to his plans.

However, he had indeed lived his entire life for others.

He lived for the dreams of the last Tianwu Emperor, for the people of the previous dynasty. It seemed that he had never truly lived for himself.

“Xiao Chen, I agree. When I am truly free of regrets, I’ll have a true battle with you!”

After Chu Chaoyun made up his mind, a bright light flashed in his eyes. Then, he vanished from the Starry Heavens, leaving this abandoned land.

The instant he left, the Starry Heavens recovered its original appearance. The stars filling the skies became bright once more; everything returned to normal.

However, it was at this moment that the Heavenly Dao mercilessly erased all traces of Chu Chaoyun in this world.

This confused the many watching Primes and Martial Emperors, who did not know what had just happened.

The only exception was Xiao Chen. When the Heavenly Dao wanted to erase all memories of Chu Chaoyun from his mind, it failed again.

Back then, when Liu Ruyue left, the Heavenly Dao wanted to erase all of Xiao Chen’s memories of her. This was the same as back then, a failure.

Everyone forgot about Chu Chaoyun’s existence. Everything that was connected to him was erased without a trace.

It was like this person never existed at all.

The Heavenly Dao was merciless. No wonder the people of the world wondered whether there was a peak above Prime.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The many Primes and Sovereign Martial Emperors sought out Xiao Chen and quickly asked what exactly happened.

Just when Xiao Chen wanted to explain, he found that the moment he opened his mouth, his entire body trembled.

A strange, boundless killing intent descended from above and firmly locked down on him.

If Xiao Chen said anything, he would definitely be killed.

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. The Heavenly Dao is not just merciless, it is heartless.

Since that was the case, there was no need to explain. He casually dodged the question, then glanced at the direction where Chu Chaoyun left, before turning to fly to the Kunlun Continent.

——

Three months later, Xiao Chen finished carving the Azure Dragon Totem. Then, he went to visit all of his good friends in the Kunlun Realm.

This was his final meeting with everyone before his departure. His first senior sister, Xiao Bai, Wu Xiaotian, Ying Zongtian, Yue Bingyun...he paid a visit to everyone he befriended.

The Deep Abyss Demonic World was Xiao Chen’s final stop. There, he met with the Demonic World’s only Demon Lord, Leng Yue.

There were many places that Xiao Chen could not bear to leave behind, so many people that were hard to forget. However, he still needed to leave the Kunlun Realm.

It was like what Xiao Chen said to Chu Chaoyun: “For some things, it is better to ask personally.”

No matter how Liu Ruyue was doing now, at least, in his heart, this person was once his master, the person he loved the most in his life.

Many old words rang in his ears like it was yesterday. Even if he hid his feelings in the depths of his heart forever, never touching them or thinking of them, that person’s place in his heart could not be replaced. This was an indisputable fact.

Before Xiao Chen left, he entered the Azure Dragon Palace for one final time.

The old Dragon Horse and the other Item Spirits had been waiting for very long already.
