Chapter 1347: Chapter 1360: True Words in My Arms (Part 1)

Chen Jing is not afraid of death!

The Path of Reverse Intent he follows, fears no death.

Killing him would not cause him pain.

Only one thing would make him wish for death.

"True Words, your father promised you to me, right?"

Jiang Fan asked.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jing immediately lost his smile.

His eyes turned cold and sharp, and he scoffed, "Don’t think you can provoke me. My master has said that I only respect you, without romantic feelings!"

"She will not marry you as per her father’s commands!"

True Word Venerable glared at him but didn’t deny it.

Indeed, she would not obey Xingyuan Venerable’s orders.

And indeed, she had no romantic feelings towards Jiang Fan; their relationship was far from reaching the point of discussing marriage.

Jiang Fan continued with a meaningful tone, "What if I help her restore her Domain?"

What?

Chen Jing was taken aback, "Impossible. Once the Heavenly Human Decline Tribulation descends, one must either break through the realm or have a Sage intervene to reverse it."

"Are you claiming to be a Sage?"

True Word Venerable also looked at Jiang Fan with some surprise, with doubt filling her eyes.

Was Jiang Fan deliberately enraging Chen Jing by saying this?

Jiang Fan said, "Just tell me, if I help you restore your Domain, will you follow Xingyuan Venerable’s arrangements and marry me as my wife?"

True Word Venerable avoided Jiang Fan’s gaze, lightly chiding:

"Don’t even think about it!"

But after pausing, she lamented softly, "However, my scandal with you is known throughout Hunyuan State."

"Unless I never marry in this lifetime."

"If I do marry, it can only be to you."

Jiang Fan smiled slightly, "Those words are enough."

He held the Wish Paper in his hand and said, "Then, I will wait for you to marry me."

Swallowing over a hundred grains of Space-Time Dust, Jiang Fan decisively activated the Wish Paper.

"True Word Venerable’s Domain, restore."

Ah?

True Word Venerable was greatly shocked and hurriedly said, "Don’t meddle!"

"Reversing the Heavenly Human Decline Tribulation is opposing the Heavenly Dao; even my father doesn’t dare to make such a rebellious wish!"

"Stop right now!"

The wish had already been cast, and Jiang Fan’s body aged rapidly, becoming a white-haired old man in the blink of an eye.

But immediately, he was partially restored by the powerful life force of the Space-Time Dust.

And then it continued to decline.

In this repeated cycle, when all one hundred grains of Space-Time Dust were completely consumed,

The Wish Paper finally activated, turning into a blaze of light.

Then, a uniquely resonant rhythm descended from the heavens upon True Word Venerable.

The corner of the Divine Ring at the back of her head, astonishingly, was reshaped!

The decaying stench emanating from her body also quickly dissipated.

This signified the restoration of her Domain.

True Word Venerable, unable to attend to her own changes, gazed at Jiang Fan with indescribable emotions, his hair slightly white.

Even an idiot could understand that Jiang Fan must have paid an unimaginable price to fulfill the wish.

"Was it worth it?"

She asked the same question the Bodhisattva had asked her before.

Jiang Fan dusted the ashes of the Wish Paper from his hands, looking at True Word Venerable’s perfectly restored Divine Ring, smiling slightly:

"You, who will be my wife, are of course worth it!"

Listening to Jiang Fan’s half-joking words, True Word Venerable’s gaze was complex.

After watching Jiang Fan for a long while, she nodded softly:

"Fine."

"If we survive the Ancient Giant Catastrophe, you and I both."

"I will marry you."

Hmm?

Jiang Fan was taken aback, gazing at True Word Venerable’s Divine Ring at the back of her head, "Senior Zhenyan, don’t take it seriously!"

"I was just trying to provoke Chen Jing!"

"There’s not that much romantic feeling between you and me!"

At this moment, True Word Venerable’s Domain had already been restored.

The words she spoke were assuredly what she truly thought.

True Word Venerable earnestly said, "Love affairs require romantic feelings; marriage does not."

"Consider it... a way of repaying you with my life."

Jiang Fan was momentarily stunned.

He had never imagined he and True Word Venerable would reach this point.

After all, the two had always been in a state of mutual hostility.

Unexpectedly, by the twists of fate, True Word Venerable would ultimately become his future bride.

"Jiang Fan!!!"

A venomous roar interrupted Jiang Fan’s moment of daze.

Jiang Fan focused his gaze; Chen Jing, out of rage, had his facial features twisted together, with seething malice in his eyes.

Not only would True Word Venerable not die due to the Heavenly Human Decline Tribulation, but she also agreed to marry Jiang Fan!

How could he accept this?

Jiang Fan chuckled, holding True Word Venerable’s hand.

She instinctively wanted to pull back, but on second thought, she had already agreed to marry Jiang Fan—what harm was there in merely holding hands?

Thus, she allowed Jiang Fan to hold her smooth hand, as smooth as jade.

Jiang Fan said, "Chen Jing, you should thank yourself for repeatedly pushing us, bringing my master and me together."

"Without you causing trouble at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, True Words wouldn’t have reconciled with me."

"Without you tattling to Venerate Xinnie, True Words would not have come to save me today."

"Without your hostile words, I wouldn’t have restored True Words’ Domain right now."

"Two people like True Words and I, who wouldn’t have had any future interactions, were forced together by you."

"On behalf of True Words, I thank you, his good disciple."

"When True Words and I marry, we will definitely keep a seat for you."

True Word Venerable listened and couldn’t help but consider the cause and effect.

Upon careful thought, it truly was so!

If Chen Jing hadn’t taken action step by step, there would eternally be no connection between her and Jiang Fan.

If, after returning from Hunyuan State, Chen Jing had quietly cultivated at Washing Moon Lake without seeking trouble with Jiang Fan,

then she would have continued to practice in seclusion at Washing Moon Lake until the Ancient Giant descended.

Afterwards, she would have entered the great battle of the Ancient Giant.

There would virtually be no further connection with Jiang Fan.

However, Chen Jing’s actions inadvertently altered everything.

And miraculously brought them together.

If Chen Jing had taken one less step, none of this would have happened.

It can only be said that cause and effect, the craftsmanship of destiny, incites sighs.

"No!"

"It’s not like this!"

Chen Jing roared in madness.

He couldn’t accept that his master actually promised to marry Jiang Fan!

What crumbled him even more was that he had facilitated it all!

He himself had personally placed the woman he cherished into Jiang Fan’s arms!

Suddenly,

He saw the composed Green Pearl, his gaze immediately turning venomous.

"Asura King, didn’t you come to kill Jiang Fan?"

"Quick, kill him!"

"He’s heavily indebted to the Great Wine Sacrificial Artifact, and has several Demon Venerables as peers."

"If you don’t kill him now, you’ll have no chance later!"

Green Pearl glanced at him indifferently.

Her eyes showed disgust, and she casually struck his abdomen with a palm.

With a muffled ’poof’ sound,

Chen Jing’s Nascent Soul within his abdomen exploded, and countless Nascent Soul Power spread out through his pores.

"Ah! You, you destroyed my cultivation!"

Chen Jing howled in pain, rolling repeatedly on the ground.

"I am helping you!"

Green Pearl said coldly, "A disciple who betrays his master deserves to be punished by everyone!"

"Furthermore, the matter between Jiang Fan and me is not for you to manage!"

Ending the noise in her ears,

Green Pearl slowly looked towards Jiang Fan, her eyes filled with complexity, saying, "I’ve dealt with Chen Jing for you."

"Now, it’s time to resolve the matter between us."
