Chapter 932 Ending 23
The immortal officials were dumbfounded. They glanced at Zhao Xuan with fear, and looked at each other secretly, wondering if Lord Tiandao was going to stand by and watch.
Zhao Xuan felt that everyone in the Celestial Clan needed to have their brains examined, as there was something wrong with their brains. He had told them that he was no longer the Demon King, and even if they really wanted to attack the Celestial Clan, it was not his business.
After all that talk, they still stared at Zhao Xuan with fearful and suspicious eyes, half believing and half doubting.
"...Lord Tiandao..." The immortal official hesitated, with a look of expectation and desire in his eyes, hoping that the other party could say something specific.
For example... the Demon Lord will definitely not attack their Celestial Clan's promise. Another example... their Celestial Clan now needs drastic reforms so that neither the demons nor the monsters can invade.
In fact, they were also panicked and didn't know what to do.
So many gods with more unfathomable powers than them disappeared just like that, the Upper Heaven was also wiped out, leaving only the Lower Heaven, which was quite tragic.
So many members of the Celestial Clan disappeared in an instant. Even Zhao Xuan couldn't hurt a finger of them together. How could he guarantee that the Celestial Clan would be safe?
Zhao Xuan could see what they were planning in their minds, and because he knew it, he had a half-smile on his face.
He always thought that he was thick-skinned and no one should be able to match him. Now that he thinks about it, there are still people who can compare to him.
Look, the people of the Celestial Clan have faces as thick as city walls, impervious to swords and guns.
Zhao Xuan's beautiful and affectionate peach blossom eyes were sparkling and flashing with an inexplicable light. She seemed to be smiling, but in fact, the coldness had not faded.
"Hush, we have already said what we need to say. If you ask about the rest, you will only cause trouble for yourself. The Way of Heaven and the Laws are not in the Three Realms and do not interfere in the affairs of the Three Realms. Don't you know that?"
Not to mention that Chu Ge's personality would never favor any side. Even if he really wanted to intervene to help the Celestial Clan, Zhao Xuan would not allow it.
He had already learned from the law the pain of being entangled in cause and effect.
Even though he had never tasted the power of the Soul-Locking Nail, he knew it was definitely not a good thing.
He had already lost Chu Ge once, and could not bear the pain of losing Chu Ge again.
All the immortals, “…” How could they not know?
Of course they knew it. Aren't they so scared that they could only come to Lord Tiandao and hope that he would give them protection?
Except for the low-level immortals who had been begging Chu Ge for protection, the other immortals did not interrupt much, because they already knew the answer and would not seek trouble.
The cultivators who had become immortals through cultivation originally had objections to the punishment that the Emperor of Heaven had dealt with Qingtian, and felt that the Celestial Clan was also a place that valued connections and backers.
It's full of filth and corruption, and is no better than the intrigues among the immortal families. Now, after seeing the photo stone that Zhao Xuan took out, they feel that... becoming an immortal is just like this.
It was not a sin for Zhao Xuan to be born into the demon clan, but when he ended up in a place that did not belong to him, it became the greatest sin.
Now that I think about it, there were clues of everything long before it broke out. Whether it was the demise of the gods or the Emperor of Heaven's desire for greater power, there were clearly...traces.
But they didn't think about it carefully at the time, and they never dared to imagine that there would be such a tragic consequence.
Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, I don’t even want him to be involved in the cause and effect, who are you?
Chu Ge's eyes were cold, and his clear voice was filled with pure chillness. "I show you these just to tell you that you should take this as a warning and not have any evil thoughts."
Apart from that, he had no intention of staying. He side-glanced and cast his gaze at Zhao Xuan, as if silently asking him whether he wanted to leave.
Zhao Xuan nodded, and in front of all the Celestial Clan members, he stretched out his hand, wanting to hold Chu Ge's hand out of habit. However, before he touched the other person, he turned around and prepared to let go.
...The cause and effect were caused by him. Chu Ge almost lost her soul because of him. If... Damn it, if I hold Chu Ge's hand once, I will be affected by the cause and effect.
Wouldn’t Chu Ge be haunted by karma from now on?
Chu Ge noticed Zhao Xuan's unusual behavior and couldn't help but be surprised,...Why did he take it back?
The tips of his fair ears unconsciously turned a shade of red. Before Zhao Xuan noticed, he reached out his hand, took the other's fingers, and held hands.
"Why did you withdraw again?"
Zhao Xuan was about to talk about cause and effect, but when he thought of the thousands of immortals watching him from behind, he was afraid that if he said it out loud, someone with ulterior motives might hear it.
He struggled, as if he wanted to withdraw his hand, "...I'm worried about...that problem?"
"What is there to worry about? The cause and effect between us was planted long ago, and it is destined to be unclear." Chu Ge held Zhao Xuan's fingers tightly, not allowing him to take a step back.
In those dreams that were occupied by his inner demons, he crashed into the barrier again and again. Even if he was bleeding and covered with scars, he still wanted to crawl to the other side.
After regaining his sanity, he once again reinforced the barrier with blood, not giving his inner demons a chance to break out.
During those days and nights, he...was actually in a lot of pain.
What hurts more than the physical pain is the process and determination of quitting.
It's like a patient addicted to cocaine. The withdrawal process is worse than death. He lives in numbness and pain, but... he can never quit completely and keeps recalling the few memories.
Chu Ge had no intention of telling Zhao Xuan about those dark and painful days, because no one wants to have a bad image in the heart of their lover.
He didn't want to see the alienation in Zhao Xuan's eyes.
At that time, Chu Ge could clearly choose to erase all his memories, but he still chose to keep them. Keeping memories would not allow him to completely eliminate the demons in his heart.
He is not afraid of having inner demons, because inner demons are the embodiment of desire. The birth of inner demons comes from the fact that his love for Zhao Xuan cannot be relieved, cannot be exposed to the light, and is caused by repeated repression.
Therefore, no matter how evil the inner demon is, it will not hurt Zhao Xuan in the slightest.
Chu Ge just didn't want the love hidden deep in her heart to be revealed to Zhao Xuan, for fear of scaring him away and making him dare not talk and laugh with her anymore.
Thousands of years ago, he could never have predicted that there would be a day when he would get all of Zhao Xuan's love.
Having finally caught the person, Chu Ge naturally would not let go.
"I won't let you retreat either."
Because the pain of having something and then losing it is a thousand times more painful than never having it in the first place.
Zhao Xuan could sense the worry hidden deep in Chu Ge's eyes, so he stopped struggling and responded to his actions by interlocking his fingers and holding them tightly.
"I won't retreat. Let karma bind us together even more tightly. This way... heaven and earth can bear witness that we will never be separated."
The celestial beings behind them, “…” They never thought that one day they would be able to witness such a “grand” scene.
One is the Heavenly Dao, the other is the Devil God, these two really love each other!!
The two of them interlocked their fingers, cast a spell, and left, leaving behind... the thousand dumbfounded immortal officials of the Lower Heaven...
