Chapter 465: No Release!
"Senior!"
Zhou Yanbing hurried to Jiang Chen’s side and said, "Thank you for saving me, please wait!"
Jiang Chen ignored Zhou Yanbing and walked on by himself.
Just then, the children and Tanasah came out of the cellar.
"Did he save us?"
The old man looked at Jiang Chen’s back and quickly brought over a young boy. "Quick, thank the gentleman."
The young boy realized, ran over, and bowed respectfully, "Thank you!"
Jiang Chen suddenly stopped, raised his hand, and the young boy instinctively closed his eyes in fear…
Seeing this, Jiang Chen silently lowered his hand.
"You’re welcome."
Zhou Yanbing seemed to realize something, could it be that this elder…likes children?
Zhou Yanbing quickly walked to the side of the little boy and whispered a few words.
The little boy blinked and suddenly grabbed a corner of Jiang Chen’s cape, "Um…Mister, what’s your name?"
Jiang Chen stomped his foot again, "Jiang Chen."
Jiang…
Jiang Chen?!
Spirit!
Zhou Yanbing’s pupils suddenly shrank, quickly blocking Jiang Chen, "Wait, elder, my father is Zhou Li, that lady is the daughter of Black Blade, we came specifically to find you!"
Under Jiang Chen’s helmet, his eyes shone with blue fire, "So what?"
Zhou Yanbing couldn’t help but swallow nervously, thinking to himself that Jiang Chen was different from all the seniors he had met before.
He exuded an unparalleled pressure, a very heavy feeling.
"I would like to ask for your help, senior."
"My father has already gone to the Tower of Legends, I hope you can help him!"
Jiang Chen coldly walked past Zhou Yanbing at the mention of this.
"No time."
"Why?"
Zhou Yanbing was puzzled.
"Since you decided to leave back then, why do you want to come back now?"
Faced with Jiang Chen’s question, Zhou Yanbing didn’t know how to answer for a moment.
"What about you, why did you leave back then?"
Jiang Chen sneered, "Do you know who the Guardian of the fiftieth floor is?"
The Guardian of the fiftieth floor was originally the creator of the sage stone, a great alchemist, and the Disaster he sealed was the true ancestor of the Blood clan.
In fact, that’s true, but when this Guardian died, a new Guardian was born.
It was the woman Ye Qiu deeply loved.
The great alchemist crafted a magic with his heart. When he dies, the magic in his heart will be released, forcing someone to become the new Guardian.
What’s annoying is, there’s no such thing in the game.
So, no one reacted, the teleportation was sealed again, and the only way to move forward was to kill that woman.
Faced with a choice, Ye Qiu chose to take his life to change everything.
But no matter how many times he tried again, history seemed predetermined, and that woman always ended up becoming the next Guardian at that time.
Even if Ye Qiu sealed her, various accidents would still happen, making her the Guardian!
It was like an unstoppable force, no matter how many times he tried, there would be no slightest change!
Ye Qiu tried repeatedly, attempting over and over again.
Once, he directly killed the woman before she stepped into the seal, how would that be different?
Ye Qiu aged rapidly that day, until he exhausted his last breath, unable to change the destined fate.
Although it was unclear what happened that day, others could sense Ye Qiu’s soul and physical life depleting in an instant!
After trying without success, Ye Qiu fell into complete despair. He screamed, broke down, and finally knelt in front of the woman silently all night.
Seeing this, everyone left, and the choice had to be made by Ye Qiu.
The woman stayed with Ye Qiu, talking all night as if telling her last words, until she couldn’t hold back her tears.
Not enough time…
The woman possessed a special gift called Bridal Robe.
Its effect was to give everything of oneself to another person, including physical life energy, ethereal soul energy, and all abilities and cultivation, all bestowed through the Bridal Robe.
This ability was extremely powerful, if you were a deity.
Then, you could disregard all factors and costs, directly transferring all your abilities to an ordinary person, making them an instant god.
Or, if both of you were deities, you could grant the other person the power of two gods.
But the price is that both the soul and the body disappear.
Your soul and body will break down into the purest colorless energy, without any personal colors.
It means your soul will scatter and you won’t even qualify to enter the Hall of Echoes.
She made an unquestionable choice for Ye Qiu, who resisted that power, ultimately leaving behind only a skeleton.
Since then, Ye Qiu went crazy.
Everything started from that moment, heading downhill.
Everyone left, including Jiang Chen.
After going through several ups and downs in life, he suddenly started longing for a stable and peaceful life.
So, he came to the Holy Papal States, believing in angels, ready to live out the rest of his days peacefully here.
But here is not as calm and peaceful as he imagined.
Urged on by the Pope, he was appointed as a judge, becoming the executioner of the Papal States, constantly taking lives.
The Pope said everything was for making the world a better place, making it more stable and peaceful.
The people they killed were all guilty, they were enforcers of justice.
Jiang Chen believed the Pope and killed too many people, until he grew tired of it, he started chatting with the people he was supposed to kill to pass the time.
It was then that he truly understood that the so-called justice, the so-called sinners, were all spoken by the Pope’s mouth.
As a bystander, he witnessed the truth of the Papal States.
Later, he left the Papal States, ready to find a quiet place and no longer care about worldly matters.
He had had enough of living as an Undead Sorcerer.
His hands were already stained with sins, and no one would accept him as a spirit. Even if they did accept him, it would only be for their own purposes.
Jiang Chen wandered aimlessly, witnessing countless tragedies and hardships. He realized that most of these disasters were caused by the Papal States.
It was also because of him…
Until he walked into a cave and discovered a group of children inside.
The wars started by the Papal States have left these children homeless, turning them into refugees and beggars.
Afraid of scaring the children with his appearance, he quietly brought them some food while they were asleep.
However, the children woke up.
To his surprise, the children weren’t scared of him at all. Instead, they held his hand and showed innocent smiles.
From then on, Jiang Chen lived with these children.
The children did not dislike him, nor were they afraid of him.
He cared for the children like an old father, and the children saw him as their best friend. They painted together, learned to read together, and told stories together.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last.
The Papal States never lose their prey.
Jiang Chen betrayed the Papal States, angering the Pope!
In a fit of anger, the Pope sent out ten judges to punish Jiang Chen in the name of lich.
The ten judges killed the children while Jiang Chen was out, then roasted their bodies by the fire.
They had grim smiles and feasted on human flesh.
That day, Jiang Chen found his lost anger.
He tore apart the bodies of ten judges and imprisoned their souls, torturing them for eternity!
Then, like those souls, he fell into endless suffering.
He wanted to seek liberation, but how could he find it?
