495: Chapter 495 The High Priest's Unattainable Person

"Before that, let me tell you a story. It's a story of the sea, and also a story of three Limit Douluos."

Bo Saixi glanced at Su Wen, seemingly afraid that he would overthink, and held his hand, intertwining her fingers with his.

Watching this tiny, subtle action, Tang Chen's heart pounded wildly.

He was filled with confusion. What on earth was going on between them?

Why was Bo Saixi holding his hand?

Seeing Bo Saixi show a trace of tenderness toward his enemy.

Tang Chen suddenly felt as if his heart had been pricked by something.

This pain was even more agonizing than having those fat pigs whip his throat.

"I'll keep it brief. This story begins with a woman chosen by the god and left on Sea God Island to await the successor of her Legacy. Because she was chosen by the god, the woman was extremely powerful, with no rivals across the entire island. However, she was also restricted to the island and could not leave. Precisely because she was chosen by the god, everyone on the island regarded her as the most noble person, not daring to show the slightest disrespect. This also left a trace of loneliness in her heart."

"Those boring and peaceful days lasted for decades, until two equally matched men arrived that day. At first, they came to conquer Sea God Island, but the woman's strength captivated them. The woman defeated them, yet they did not leave. Instead, they began to pursue the woman. Due to their goodwill, the woman did not want to offend anyone in the process, so she made a promise: she would accept whoever became a god first."

Bo Saixi's fingers tightened slightly, gripping Su Wen's hand a bit harder. Her red lips parted slightly: "In fact, the woman already had a choice back then. After all, one of them, just like the woman, was chosen by a god and could never become a god in his lifetime, while the other person had a chance. But he didn't understand the meaning, and resolutely left to seek the god's Legacy."

Tang Chen's head buzzed, and his gaze suddenly fixed burningly on Bo Saixi.

The person she rejected back then was that old fellow Qian Daoliu.

"Actually, I want to say that the woman's intention back then wasn't love. It was just that living on Sea God Island, trapped within that tiny island without experiencing the mortal world, she felt curiosity and yearning for the outside world."

"And his arrogant personality made the woman feel a momentary impulse, but this wasn't love. It was simply that the prolonged boring days caused her to infinitely magnify her yearning for those unseen days and people as something wonderful."

"Please tell Tang Chen that the agreement between the three of them back then no longer counts. She has already found the person she wants and has that person's child. Therefore, let's put an end to the matters of the past."

Bo Saixi suddenly took the initiative to hug Su Wen's waist, pressing her delicate body against his embrace, and spoke softly: "A-Wen, let's go."

Su Wen nodded, then looked at Tang Chen, and took Bo Saixi away amidst his stunned gaze.

Tang Chen stood stupidly in place, his brain still unable to process what had happened.

What did he just hear?

Bo Saixi found someone she liked?

And even conceived that person's child?

"How could this be."

"It turned out to be Su Wen."

Tang Chen rushed fiercely toward the window; he had to ask clearly.

That was his enemy.

How could she do this!

Looking at the empty balcony, Tang Chen's heart was filled with despair.

She left.

She really left.

She left with the mortal enemy who had harmed him.

Tang Chen dropped to his knees with a thump.

Tears flowed endlessly.

He couldn't figure it out.

Why would Bo Saixi choose such a person?

He would rather believe that Bo Saixi liked Qian Daoliu.

"Why..."

His Soul Power was destroyed.

The Clear Sky Hammer vanished.

The once-glorious Clear Sky Sect no longer existed, and the descendants left behind were even more unfortunate than him.

Now, even that last ray of light was about to be snatched away by his enemy.

Tang Chen cried.

But they were not tears of water, but two lines of blood tears.

Tang Chen looked at the hairpin on the table.

His feet walked over involuntarily.

Tang Chen picked up the hairpin with a blank expression, his eyes filled with complete lifelessness.

"Su Wen, you win!"

Tang Chen raised his arm high and fiercely stabbed the hairpin into his own heart.

He didn't feel pain; instead, it was a sense of relief.

He smiled.

He fell in a pool of blood, collapsing in this place of brothels and pleasure.

"If I could do it all over again... I will definitely... go to Spirit Hall first and kill... kill..."

...

"Tap, tap."

I don't know how much time had passed when the door suddenly knocked, and the voice of the manager, Fat Sister, rang out from outside:

"My dear Chenchen, how is the cleaning up going?"

"Hurry up and get ready. You defeated six people, and the noble lords dropped their jaws in shock."

"They discussed finding twelve slaves and made a bet. As long as you can defeat these twelve slaves again, they will give me 120,000 gold coins. So you must work hard and win this for this old lady..."

"This old lady is talking to you."

Fat Sister kicked open the door with one foot and saw the scene inside the room—the dead person in the pool of blood.

She felt no fear, no terror, only endless anger.

"You actually committed suicide on this old lady?"

"This old lady's cash cow!"

Fat Sister was heartbroken; she had lost another top courtesan.

Her eyes were red, she breathed like a pig, and her lion's roar exploded inside the room: "You damned bastard, you actually dared to commit suicide! Who told you to commit suicide? Without my order, how dare you commit suicide?"

"Do you think suicide is a relief? Do you think you can leave my place by committing suicide?"

"Delusional."

"Someone come, chop him up into pieces and feed him to the dogs~"

"This old lady is going to make him a beast in his next life."

"Notify all the girls to come and watch. This old lady wants to tell them that suicide is not a relief, but the next Hell..."

...

On the streets of Heaven Dou City, Su Wen did not know that Tang Chen was already dead. He was being held by the arm by Bo Saixi.

The two of them strolled leisurely back and forth. Bo Saixi looked at his profile and couldn't help revealing a faint smile:

"You were actually so well-behaved, not saying or doing anything at all."

"Oh? What do you hope I would do in front of Tang Chen?"

Su Wen stopped walking, his gaze falling on a carriage coming toward them from ahead.

He felt a familiar fluctuation of Soul Power—it was Qian Renxue.

"You... you are really exasperating."

Bo Saixi turned her head away in dissatisfaction. Seeing a carriage stop in front of them, she grew somewhat angry.

"Your Highness Su Wen, our Highness requests your presence."

The curtain of the carriage opened, and a maid revealed a standard smile.

"You know her?"

Bo Saixi asked.

"Yeah, your old friend's granddaughter. Let's go, let's see what she wants to do."

Su Wen brought Bo Saixi onto the carriage. The space inside was very large, resembling a small room, and Qian Renxue was sitting inside.

Today, she was wearing a bright golden dress, her legs beneath the skirt fair and straight.

Her skin surpassed snow, her slender phoenix-like eyes were slightly narrowed, and most conspicuous was her long golden hair, a few strands of which naturally rested on her snow-white neck.

Seeing Su Wen stare at her the moment he came up, Qian Renxue couldn't help but curve the corners of her mouth slightly upward.

"Su Wen, it's really been a long time. You actually changed women again?"

"Qian Renxue, let me introduce you. This is Bo Saixi, the woman your grandfather could never obtain."
