Chapter 1397 “The Proud Little Glutton (1)”
That outlandish and incredible proclamation from Chu Yi God absolutely horrified Keeper Ling. Every word from the mouth was like a hammer, pounding away at the old elder’s heart until it became a messy mush.
“Celestial Lord, your words are too irresponsible. Do you think the life of all inside the Celestial Realm is nothing or something?” Losing all the respect he had in the past, Keeper Ling yells out his words while making a crunching sound with his fist, “What’s more, Ruo Xi waited a thousand years for you, yet you keep hurting her heart by leaving her behind!”
That finally drew a frown across the Celestial Lord’s face.
“One day you will understand what you are missing. Ruo Xi is an amazing lady, far kinder than that ruthless Bai Yan. This world needs such a kind person, and you will one day regret your decision of not picking her over someone so vile!”
In fact, Keeper Ling found it absolutely abhorrent to even compare the two. One was heaven and pristine, the other vile and disgusting to the core.
“Keeper Ling, if you find Ruo Xi to be so amazing then why don’t you marry her? That way she will have someone.” Chu Yi God did not argue, only giving this indifferent suggestion that left the old timer crushed.
Trembling across the shoulder like a rabid animal, “What are you implying by that Celestial Lord!”
“Since you find her to be the most amazing female in this world, and that it will be my greatest regret for not choosing her, then why don’t you marry her then? Though the age gap difference between you and her is a bit large, but I’m sure it won’t be an issue. I believe Rou Xi wouldn’t mind.” Though the Celestial Lord said it with such a frank smile, his tone couldn’t be mistaken, it’s cold and mocking.
Trembling even harder now along the shoulders, “You…. don’t forget who it was that pushed you up into that position! Just because your wings have grown harder, you’re now ignoring us who supported you?”
Obedience and respect goes both ways. If Chu Yi God wouldn’t help them and be useful to the Celestial Palace then Keeper Ling had no reason to continue this relationship with the other man. Heck, if Yun Ruo Xi still had the ability to grow, this grumpy Keeper would’ve likely turned his back on Chu Yi God years ago. Why would he bother with someone that’s deserted them for a millennium?
Huffing a faint grunt, the Celestial Lord said the one thing he wanted to say for a long time now: “Then we are of the same mind. I regret ever taking up this position as the Celestial Lord. That way I wouldn’t have had to shoulder such heavy responsibilities and hurt my most important person….”
“You…!” Keeper Ling flew into a rage and pointed accusingly at the other man, “You only lost a single woman, a vile and wretched one at that! How can you desert the rest of the world for the sake of someone so-so undeserving!”
That reprimand drew a narrowed look from Chu Yi God, “That’s right, it’s a woman that caused me to lose my sanity! You’ll never understand the pain I suffered because of what I did back then. As for why I left the Celestial Palace and kept a grudge against you all, do you really not know or are you just acting ignorant Keeper Ling?”
