Upon hearing Huan Chenxue's words, Yi Yun was surprised. What did she mean by it being different from what he imagined? Did Huan Chenxue not want the sword?
Huan Chenxue could tell what was on Yi Yun's mind. She said with a smile, "The reason I called you here is not because I want anything from you, but because it has to do with the owner of the broken sword."
"Are you talking about … the Pure Yang Sword Palace owner?"
Huan Chenxue nodded gently. "That's right. Too much time has passed. Ignoring the Sinkhole, just the 12 Empyrean Heavens alone probably no one remembers the eight Godly Monarchs of primordial times."
Eight Godly Monarchs?
Yi Yun held his breath. Huan Chenxue's words left him in awe. He did not know what sort of figures the eight Godly Monarchs were.
"The Pure Yang Sword Palace owner you just mentioned is one of the eight Godly Monarchs of the primordial times. Back when all living beings in the world fought the Ancestor God, the eight Godly Monarchs fought a bloody battle. Some died in battle, others were heavily injured, and others are unknown. However, that period of history has long been wiped away due to various reasons. It is unknown to people now, so it's normal that you have never heard of it!"
Huan Chenxue sighed. Her eyes seemed to pierce through the endless river of time, seeing the astounding ancient war at the source of the river of time.
Yi Yun found it hard to believe that a mortal woman could have such a look in her eyes.
He fell silent for a long while before asking, "Miss Huan, you mentioned that that period of history has been wiped away. How did Bai Yueyin know the value of the sword, to the point of harming her lover of centuries for it? Does she know the history of the eight Godly Monarchs? "
Upon hearing Yi Yun's question, Huan Chenxue sighed lightly. Her voice sounded a little bitter and wistful. "That's right. She obviously knows because she is one of the eight Godly Monarchs of the Primordial Era …"
What!?
Yi Yun widened his eyes. He never expected Huan Chenxue to give him such an answer!
In Azure Yang Lord's memories, Bai Yueyin was only a genius girl from a small sect. Now, he was told that Bai Yueyin was a figure equal to the Pure Yang Sword Palace owner. How was that possible?
Even if Bai Yueyin was one of the eight Godly Monarchs, all she needed to do was kill Jian Qingyang to obtain the pure Yang broken sword. Why did she stay with him for centuries? With the standards of an ancient Godly Monarch, even if Jian Qingyang was excellent, he would not catch her eye.
It was unimaginable!
Huan Chenxue said, "I know what you are perplexed about. In fact, Bai Yueyin is not the Godly Monarch's complete form. She is just one of the Godly Monarch's lives …"
Chen Xue's words.
Yi's mind was taken aback.
"I've mentioned before that among the eight Godly Monarchs of the Primordial Era, some died, some were heavily injured, and some went missing …"
"Bai Yueyin was heavily injured back then. Later, she sealed herself in a Divine Blood Crystal and slept for a hundred million years. However, although she managed to preserve her life during these hundred million years, her strength also began to wane. In order to recover to her former state, she used a mystic technique to reincarnate. She split her soul and reincarnated into different lives to nourish her soul force and absorb Yuan Qi. These reincarnated lives slowly fused back into her body, allowing her strength to slowly recover."
"Back then, the girl Jian Qingyang met was Bai Yueyin's entire life. That girl did not have the memories of the Godly King. She was her, pure as a sheet of paper. She met Jian Qingyang, fell in love with him, and stayed together for centuries. However, one day, she woke up and became the real Bai Yueyin. From that moment forth, the girl of the past was dead. The only thing that survived was the soul that belonged to the Godly King."
"That's why I said … from the moment Jian Qingyang met that girl, he was destined to have a life of tragedy."
Upon hearing Huan Chenxue's words, Yi Yun was enlightened. It was no wonder Bai Yueyin's eyes were filled with silent love back when she was with Jian Qingyang. Back then, she was truly in love with Jian Qingyang.
They should have had the chance to roam the world and grow old together, but unfortunately, their fates had long been decided. With the power of Sword Azure Yang, how could it match the Godly Monarchs of primordial times?
From this perspective, wasn't the reincarnated Bai Yueyin also a tragedy?
Unfortunately, Jian Qingyang did not know why his beloved had betrayed him even at the moment of his death. Even though the ancient Great Empress had redeemed Jian Qingyang, at the moment of his death, Jian Qingyang was still filled with regret, indignation and endless hatred that lingered in his life …
Yi Yun gently touched his interspatial ring. With a faint dark gold flash, the pure Yang broken sword appeared in Yi Yun's hand.
The dark gold light from before was the light of Yi Yun's pure Yang Yuan Qi. The broken sword itself was ancient and lusterless. It had experienced the merciless baptism of time and was already covered in rust.
It was hard to imagine that this was a sword that could even tempt ancient Godly Monarchs.
"If this sword is extremely powerful, why did it break?"
Huan Chenxue said, "The value of this sword does not lie in its own strength, but in the secret it contains."
"Secret? What's that? "
Huan Chenxue shook her head gently. "Too many things happened in primordial times. Even the most earth-shattering events would be buried by history. Furthermore, it was a secret that was unknown in primordial times. After hundreds of millions of years, no one knows the truth …"
"Even Miss Huan doesn't know?" Yi Yun was surprised. He previously felt that Huan Chenxue was omniscient.
Yi Yun added, "Miss Huan, I believe that regardless of the secret of this sword, Bai Yueyin will come to me …"
Back when Yi Yun first arrived in the 12 Empyrean Heavens, he had hidden all his treasures because he lacked the strength.
Later on, he had strength that exceeded ordinary Supremacies. Furthermore, he had extremely high status and prestige. Yi Yun felt that there was no need for him to hide treasures at the level of the pure Yang broken sword and the God Advent Tower. Furthermore, no one would recognize the pure Yang broken sword. Now, from the looks of it, he had made a mistake.
Huan Chenxue said with a smile, "You don't have to worry. Ever since she retrieved her reincarnated soul, Bai Yueyin has been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years. She won't be coming out anytime soon. As for her followers, it is impossible for them to have experienced the primordial war. Therefore … you are temporarily safe. However, that might not be the case once Bai Yueyin wakes up. You brought the pure Yang broken sword from the sealed Tian Yuan world to the 12 Empyrean Heavens. It is only a matter of time before Bai Yueyin finds you. That's because your broken sword and Bai Yueyin's broken sword are connected. She will discover you."
Huan Chenxue's words left Yi Yun secretly afraid. Thankfully, Bai Yueyin was still in seclusion and Huan Chenxue had found him first.
Yi Yun pondered for a moment before he suddenly asked, "Miss Huan, do you understand Bai Yueyin? Is that person good or evil? "
Yi Yun knew very well that the peerless war of the primordial era was a battle between the hundred races, including humans, and the bronze giants. As one of the eight Godly Monarchs, Bai Yueyin must have contributed greatly to the human race.
But later on, when she thought of the Pure Yang Sword Palace owner's pure Yang broken sword, she ignored her feelings for Azure Yang Lord in her reincarnation and stabbed Jian Qingyang in the chest. She was cold-blooded and unscrupulous.
Huan Chenxue said, "How can it be that easy to determine right or wrong? In the peerless war of the primordial era, who can determine who was good or evil? The hundred races were always at war with each other. It was only because of a stronger enemy that they had no choice but to unite. However, even back when they fought the Ancestor God, could it really be said that they were all united? "
"Even when the eight Godly Monarchs fought side by side, they were not extremely close. After hundreds of millions of years, it has become even more confusing. No one can tell who is who. If you ask me if I'm good or evil, I will not be able to answer because there is no right or wrong. There is only friend and foe. "
Huan Chenxue's voice was ethereal as she looked at Yi Yun with a chuckle. She returned with a teasing question, "Do you think you are good or evil?"
Good or evil?
In terms of killing, Yi Yun had killed way too many people. After a moment of silence, he said, "Miss Huan is right. My battles are not for good. They are all for myself and my conscience."
