The Whole World Wants Me To Get Divorced chapter 70

Unwavering Until Death

After Wen Yan lifted Rong Xiao’s seal, Rong Xiao fainted before he could say anything.

Wen Yan was prepared for this and reached out to catch him.

The seal imposed by the Heavenly Dao was directly applied to Rong Xiao’s soul. In order to fulfill his promise, the Heavenly Dao not only forcibly sealed Rong Xiao’s memories but also extracted Rong Xiao’s feelings about him.

So when these suppressed emotions awakened after three thousand years, even a powerful demon like Rong Xiao fell into a brief coma.

Wen Yan slowly walked out of this dark realm while holding Rong Xiao.

He fell here three thousand years ago, and when he died, it was painful. His whole body shattered into countless pieces, and even his soul was wailing.

But he never regretted his decision.

Because he was the Peak Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the orphan left behind by the ancient god.

This identity destined him to sacrifice himself for the heavens and earth.

But in this lifetime, he was just Wen Yan.

Wen Yan reached the edge of the dark realm, about to step out, and whispered to this realm, “I’m leaving.”

In an instant, the grass and trees rustled, and spiritual energy circulated, with petals falling.

“Take care.”

These two words came from the depths of the Earth vein.

Wen Yan smiled and stepped out of the edge of the realm.

Su Meng and Qin You stood outside the realm for a while, but there was no sign of Rong Xiao and Wen Yan coming out.

Although the realm seemed gentle and peaceful now, they still felt uneasy. They looked at each other and prepared to go in together.

But before they could act, they heard some movement ahead. When they looked up, both were momentarily speechless.

Wen Yan and Rong Xiao came out together.

However, for some reason, Rong Xiao was unconscious, being carried by Wen Yan. But his figure was much taller than Wen Yan’s, creating an image as if a cat was holding a tiger.

But what shocked Su Meng and Qin You was not this.

Wen Yan, nourished by the spiritual power in the Earth vein like it was free, had grown taller, his hair longer. Although he changed his clothes back to modern attire, it still made Qin You and Su Meng widen their eyes.

They knew Wen Yan was very similar to Yan Gu, but seeing him now, they were momentarily stunned.

Because this was clearly Yan Gu standing before them.

Wen Yan walked over, holding Rong Xiao. He took the initiative to explain to these two old friends, “Rong Xiao is fine; I just lifted the seal inside him. He briefly fainted, but he’ll be fine after a short rest.”

Su Meng found it strange, “What seal? Who could have sealed Rong Xiao? With his power, how could there be no trace if he were sealed?”

Wen Yan was a bit embarrassed for a moment.

This was an example of “the strong will always have a way.” Even a powerful old monster like Rong Xiao couldn’t resist the Heavenly Dao.

He cleared his throat before answering, “It was the Heavenly Dao. Three thousand years ago, the Heavenly Dao sealed Rong Xiao’s memories of me and took away his feelings for me.”

At first, Qin You and Su Meng were confused, but after a while, they both reacted.

Because Rong Xiao had only lost memories about one person…

They stared at Wen Yan in disbelief.

And Wen Yan smiled at them.

“Long time no see, Sir Su, Lady Qin.”

The first time he met these two friends three thousand years ago, he addressed them like this.

Qin You’s lips trembled.

As if afraid of alarming someone, her voice became very soft, asking hesitantly, “Is it really you, Ah Yan…”

After Wen Yan nodded, she screamed and pounced on him, the decibel level rising sharply.

“It’s really you, you bastard!” Qin You wanted to hit him but couldn’t bring herself to do it, so she could only glare at him with teary eyes. “I’ve always suspected, always suspected that you are Ah Yan, but you never told us!”

“No, Qin You, calm down. Before today, even I wasn’t sure… I didn’t do it on purpose. Su Meng, save me; your wife is about to hit me!”

Wen Yan, caught between holding Rong Xiao and facing Qin You’s excitement, was in a dilemma.

Su Meng, however, stood by and watched.

Looking at Wen Yan, his eyes turned red, but he still sneered, “I firmly support all actions of my wife. Beat him up!”

After enduring a few half-hearted blows from Qin You, Wen Yan took Rong Xiao back to the lodging of the Demon Control Bureau, occupying a villa.

He sat by the bed, guarding Rong Xiao, slowly explaining the various experiences of his past life and this life, his identity, the ancient gods, and the Heavenly Dao to Su Meng and Qin You.

Su Meng and Qin You initially crossed their arms and looked at him as if they were about to interrogate him. However, as they listened, they gradually forgot about this posture, their faces only displaying astonishment.

Three thousand years ago, they were also present when Yan Gu dissipated into the heavens and the earth. Knowing that they would never agree to his sacrifice, Yan Gu deliberately avoided them, leaving only a letter to entrust them with taking care of Rong Xiao.

However, Rong Xiao discovered the letter ahead of time and, along with them, came to the Not Day Peak. While Rong Xiao ventured into the Earth vein, they were responsible for resisting the miasma outside the mountain.

But Yan Gu never told them about his true identity. They always thought Yan Gu was just an extraordinarily talented human.

It wasn’t until now that they learned their old friend was the last remnant of the gods, born to protect the mortal realm.

Qin You had actually calmed down a long time ago.

When she saw Yan Gu earlier, she wanted to have a big argument with him, to question how he could be so heartless to sacrifice himself alone, how he could bear to leave Rong Xiao alone in the world. Moreover, in these three thousand years, not only Rong Xiao but also she and Su Meng had been tossed and turned, unable to find peace.

But now, as she looked at his still young face, there was only a sour feeling in her heart.

Regardless of the past or present, Yan Gu was still very young, yet he had to shoulder such a heavy burden. And they, these several-thousand-year-old monsters, had become the ones being protected.

Ultimately, it was because they were too useless.

If they were a bit more powerful, perhaps Yan Gu wouldn’t have had to sacrifice himself.

She touched Wen Yan’s hair, as she used to do.

She had a lot to say, but at this moment, words seemed too cumbersome. In the end, she could only say softly, “You don’t know how much Rong Xiao changed after you left. From now on, don’t leave him again.”

She and Su Meng could support each other, accompany each other through the long years.

But Rong Xiao had lived alone for three thousand years, and although he no longer remembered anything, he had never been moved by anyone again.

Wen Yan actually knew what happened after his death.

After he died, Rong Xiao refused to believe that he had dissipated into nothingness. He had been tirelessly gathering Yan Gu’s soul, consuming a considerable amount of his cultivation to find Yan Gu’s remnant soul.

If it weren’t for the Heavenly Dao timely taking away Rong Xiao’s emotions and memories, Rong Xiao might have continued searching until the day he exhausted his strength.

Wen Yan thought, no wonder monsters could never defeat humans.

Even powerful monsters were so foolish, never learning the insincerity and deceitfulness of humans. When they liked someone, it was unwavering until death.

Su Meng and Qin You sat with Wen Yan for a while, then left, giving the entire space to the two of them. They had a lot to say to Wen Yan, but they knew that Wen Yan now wanted most to be alone with Rong Xiao.

And when the door closed, Qin You began to cry loudly while hugging her husband. Su Meng hastily wiped away her tears.

Inside the room, Wen Yan continued to watch Rong Xiao.

His fingers gently traced Rong Xiao’s eyebrow, like touching a delicate and fragile porcelain. He dared not use any force. His fingertips slid down, finally stopping at Rong Xiao’s heart.

There used to be a terrifying wound there, healed by his spiritual power, gradually fading away, returning to a smooth surface.

Wen Yan closed his eyes, recalling the first encounter with Rong Xiao in the courtyard at Green Mountain. When he looked up and saw Rong Xiao coming down from upstairs, wearing a green robe, with a straight posture and indifferent eyes, his heart had trembled just from that glance.

At that time, he thought he fell in love with Rong Xiao at first sight, believing he was blinded by desire.

But now, thinking back, love at first sight was a lie.

Wholehearted love was true.

Wen Yan gently kissed Rong Xiao’s lips.

He thought that once Rong Xiao woke up, they would have a very long life to accompany and be with each other.

But what he didn’t expect was that after pouring out his affection here, he was abruptly shut out by Rong Xiao once he woke up.

Facing the closed door, Wen Yan felt as if he were in a dream.

Or perhaps this world was fake, and even this Rong Xiao was fake.

What happened to “love me for three thousand years without change”? What about “unwavering until death”? 

Is this how you treat your destined partner?!
