It was Female Emperor's dream that Astro Sovereign could regain his freedom.
But when it really happened, Jie Mingkong was too ashamed to face her master.
Although the final result was different from her original plan, Jie Mingkong still couldn't look straight into Chen Xuanzong's complicated eyes.
If she was facing hatred and anger, she might have felt better.
Astro Sovereign didn't say anything for a long time while looking at Jie Mingkong's disappearing figure.
He didn't sigh until the white figure disappeared completely.
"Your majesty, we made it. Things are not irreparable. We can still take it slow." Yan Zhaoge said in a low voice.
If Jie Mingkong's original plan led to Chu Lili turning into a demon on the spot and even being besieged by Roving Jade Heavens, everything would be over.
"I didn't blame Mingkong." Astro Sovereign shook his head, "I owed her back then."
"Everything that happened originated from my decision. Naturally, I will be the one to bear the consequences. You cannot blame Mingkong or Lili."
"However, what Mingkong did today was beyond my expectation. What happened back then had a great influence on her."
Hearing this, Yan Zhaoge couldn't help widening his eyes. Then he wisely stopped asking.
Although he was very curious, he was afraid that something bad would happen if he kept asking …
"You don't need to be so nervous." Astro Sovereign looked at Yan Zhaoge with a smile. Then he shook his head and said frankly, "Some conventions are not unreasonable. For example, male masters rarely take female disciples, and female masters rarely take male disciples."
Yan Zhaoge's eyes lit up.
Although he didn't know much about the past of Astro Sovereign and his two disciples, he still had a lot of guesses based on their weird attitude towards each other. The fire of gossip was burning in his heart.
"I owed Mingkong back then."
Yan Zhaoge seemed to understand something after hearing Astro Sovereign's words.
Although he was willing to take Chu Lili's place and stay here alone for thousands of years without getting out.
However, Chen Xuanzong might only have a sense of responsibility and mission for this little disciple of Astro Sovereign.
However, the one who made Chen Xuanzong fall in love was his eldest disciple, Female Emperor Jie Mingkong!
Astro Sovereign looked at Yan Zhaoge and sighed. He didn't say anything more.
He wasn't a talkative person, but today's events had shaken his mental state.
Yan Zhaoge had just helped them a lot, and he was the descendant of an old friend. Astro Sovereign couldn't help but let down his guard a little.
In the past, Yan Zhaoge's grandparents, the Sword God – Yan Xintang, and the Sword Emperor – Di Qinglian, had interacted with each other. Their love for each other was deep, and they shared the same ideals. This made Chen Xuanzong feel touched.
It was also at that moment that Chen Xuanzong, who had never thought about personal matters, felt his heartstrings being tugged slightly.
However, that was all.
Over the years, he had never met a woman who could make his heartstrings tremble.
Until, at a certain moment, he suddenly realized that the white-clothed girl who had been by his side had grown up …
In fact, that was before Chu Lili joined the sect.
However, Chen Xuanzong didn't show it on his face, and Jie Mingkong didn't know about it either.
He wasn't sure if what he was doing was right or wrong.
Etiquette was definitely incompatible, but what about feelings?
Chen Xuanzong, who had already pushed open the Gate of Immortality and was walking on the path of martial arts with his head held high, felt a rare sense of bewilderment.
Chen Xuanzong wasn't angry at Jie Mingkong, who acted on her own.
Even now, he could still remember what had happened that year. That day.
That was Jie Mingkong's birthday.
On that day, Jie Mingkong received a birthday gift from her master for the first time, just like Chu Lili, who was used to it since she was young.
Her surprised, nervous, shy, hesitant, and worried expressions were still vivid in Chen Xuanzong's mind.
Unfortunately, when he was about to give Jie Mingkong a clear answer, he was interrupted.
He couldn't say what he wanted to say.
Who knew that it would be forever.
On that day, the Water Devil was reborn, and Chu Lili almost fell into the devil and became the new Ice Devil.
It wasn't because she was rejected by Chen Xuanzong many times. Instead, it was because she knew who killed her father, Chu Heng.
As a result, the thing that Chen Xuanzong worried about the most still happened.
According to the agreement with the other two sovereigns, there was only one solution.
Sending the Ice Devil to perish again.
And Chen Xuanzong would do it himself.
For the Water Devil who had just been reborn in Chu Lili's body, it was easy for Chen Xuanzong to do it.
But he gave up in the end.
He should be responsible for the decision he made, but he shouldn't blame it on Chu Lili.
In the end, Chen Xuanzong intercepted Chu Lili's demonic seal and replaced her to be the Water Devil's reincarnation.
In fact, in terms of physique, he was the most suitable one to be the Water Devil's reincarnation.
Chen Xuanzong didn't know whether it was the Water Devil's real target, who wanted to use him as a reincarnation.
But he still accepted it.
Not only that, but he had also successfully blocked the Water Demon from returning.
However, the price was that he was sealed in the land of tranquil stream between the human world and the Nine Underworlds forever.
At that time, Jie Mingkong was seriously injured by Chu Lili because she tried to save Chu Lili. After that, she was heartbroken.
Just when she saw the hope, before she could feel the happiness and joy, the hope was destroyed, leaving only endless despair and sadness.
Maybe from then on, the Astro Sovereign, one of the three sovereigns, was not the only one missing in the World beyond Worlds. Jie Mingkong was also gone.
There was only the Profound Cold Emperor of the World beyond Worlds.
Female Emperor, Jie Mingkong.
"I don't need to stay here anymore." Astro Sovereign thought about the present and shook his head slightly, "It's not suitable for me to go to the Roving Jade Heavens. Zhaoge, if it's convenient for you, could you go there for me?"
The situation on Chu Lili's side was still unknown.
After such a thing happened, the Roving Jade Heavens would not tolerate her anymore. Even if she stayed there, she would only be up to no good.
If Chu Lili left the Roving Jade Heavens, she might still be coveted by the big demons.
Although all the demons that came to the land of tranquil stream had been killed by Astro Sovereign, the news might still be leaked.
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. I will go to the Roving Jade Heavens." Yan Zhaoge cupped his hands, "You and Female Emperor …"
"Mingkong …" Astro Sovereign sighed and shook his head.
He didn't blame Female Emperor, but it didn't mean he agreed with her.
Female Emperor obviously knew it. So they didn't talk to each other when they met.
Time might not be able to heal all this. Only when the truth came to light could there be a final result.
However, the result might not satisfy everyone.
Yan Zhaoge nodded and didn't ask further.
"As for me, I will go back to the World beyond Worlds." Astro Sovereign said calmly, "It happened so suddenly that I could only stop the Water Demon from coming back. There are some things that I haven't figured out yet. They have been lingering in my heart for thousands of years."
Jie Mingkong couldn't get the answer. After all, Yue Zhenbei was not the person involved.
Only Chen Xuanzong, Chen Xuanzong, was qualified to ask about some things.
