He knew that she would leave immediately without the slightest hesitation if he were to reject her request.
On the other hand, Chen Xinjie would certainly have rejected her if this had happened twenty years ago. Not only was it his principle, it was his duty as the War God Hall’s Hall Master, the deputy speaker of the Federation, and the leader of the military.
Nonetheless, he found himself incapable of rejecting her at the moment. He obviously knew that she was here to extract information from him. Yet, he could not find it in him to reject her.
There was only a dash of disappointment in his gaze as he looked at her.
“So, you’re here to see me just for this matter?” asked Chen Xinjie bitterly.
“Yes,” answered Long Yeyue without any hesitation.
Chen Xinjie opened his mouth in an attempt to say something, but he did not manage to utter a single word.
Long Yeyue watched him closely and stared into his eyes. She did not speak another word nor offer him any further explanation. She only gazed at him as such. She watched the man whom she loved so deeply in the past.
Chen Xinjie suddenly said, “If I were to tell you, will you be with me?”
Long Yeyue was stunned for a moment. She did not expect such a response from him. She replied with another question, “If I’m willing to do so, will you tell me?”
Chen Xinjie suddenly chuckled. A faint smile emerged on his face. “I will.” The reply from him sounded determined and decisive. On the other hand, Long Yeyue’s body shook as if she was electrocuted upon hearing Chen Xinjie’s reply.
“What about your perseverance? What about your duty? And the honor of your clan?” asked Long Yeyue as she abruptly took a step forward and looked at him.
Chen Xinjie spoke indifferently, “All this is not important to me anymore. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have told you what I told you the last time we met. I’ve lived my life for other people for such a long time. I don’t have many years left, so I only want to live for myself. I want to be with the person I love the most and nothing can stop me. I can tell you the whereabouts of the Eternal Heaven. I’ll even take the blame and resign. As long as you’re willing to be with me, even if you’re unwilling to do so in your heart, I’ll be contented as long as I get to see you everyday till the day I die. Don’t worry, I won’t disturb your livelihood. I only want to see you once a day and that’ll be considered as you being with me. Will you say yes to that?”
Long Yeyue looked at him. The tears reappeared in her eyes. Her voice was suddenly raised a pitch higher. “Do you think that you’re doing me a great favor by making so many sacrifices for me? Do you think doing this will put you on a high pedestal?”
“No, I don’t.” Chen Xinjie’s voice grew louder as well. “I don’t think so. Yeyue, I just want you to believe me that there is no one more important to me in this world than you. Apart from you, there’s no one else. When I was young, you left me because of my obstinance. I had no choice then but to choose my clan, the Federation, the military, and the teachers. On the other hand, you too chose to leave me and returned to Shrek. We were headstrong and set in our ways at the time. However, I’m a changed man now. Everything about the continent and the Federation is not important nor significant to me anymore. I’m willing to give up everything for you. I only ask this of you. Would you like to be with me or not?”
Long Yeyue suddenly raised her hand and slapped his face. Her strength was so powerful that Chen Xinjie spun around and stumbled before managing to stabilize himself.
“You…” Chen Xinjie looked at her in bewilderment. It felt as if the incomparably powerful Light Dark Holy Dragon in the past had returned once more.
“I do.” Tears streamed down Long Yeyue’s face at last. She felt humiliated the moment tears streamed down her face.
Chen Xinjie looked at her in a daze. “You’ve not given up after all this time. You’ve not given up on your dedication to Shrek. You’re only consenting because of Shrek, right?”
“Yes, you’re right.” Long Yeyue replied arrogantly, “Shrek’s glory has fused into my blood and bones. I’m willing to endure even more humiliation for Shrek. I once vowed that I’ll never forgive you for the rest of my life. However, I’m willing to break my vow for the sake of Shrek. Shrek will always be number one in my heart.”
Chen Xinjie’s face turned pale with disappointment. He stumbled and fell back into his seat. He closed his eyes in pain. “Yeyue, why’re you doing this to me?”
Long Yeyue spoke coldly, “I’ve already agreed. Now it’s your turn to honor your promise.”
Chen Xinjie’s face was bitter. He opened his mouth and paused for a moment before he finally said, “The Eternal Heaven is in the War God Hall’s headquarters, at the deepest end of the eighteenth level of the War God Hall.
Long Yeyue seemed relieved for some unknown reason. Her gaze was different as she looked at Chen Xinjie in agony. She waved her right hand once to conjure a double-colored light door. She walked into the light door slowly. “Chen Xinjie, I don’t owe you anything. Neither do you owe me anything. Do you know why I vowed never to forgive you?”
Chen Xinjie opened his eyes just in time to see Long Yeyue’s departing silhouette at the light door. “Why?”
Long Yeyue’s icy cold voice was heard echoing from the depths of the light door. “It’s because on the day you left me, I found out that I was pregnant with your child…”
“Yeyue…” Chen Xinjie leaped up at full speed in an instant. He charged toward the light door as if he was mad, but the light door had already closed. It vanished without a trace.
All of a sudden, the Boundless Sea Douluo was drenched in cold sweat. Suddenly, he understood everything. He finally understood why Long Yeyue was so full of hatred for him for so many years and why she chose to marry the Sea God’s Pavilion Master back at the beginning.
He learned that Long Yeyue had given birth to a child. However, the child died at birth with congenital birth defects due to her difficult pregnancy. Even the Holy Spirit Douluo did not manage to save the child.
That was his child…
“Smack…” He slapped himself ferociously. Chen Xinjie almost exhausted his strength to give himself one tight slap.
…
“The War God Hall’s headquarters, eighteenth level, the deepest end.”
Long Yeyue left this message when Tang Wulin received the soul communication from her. With his sharp senses, Tang Wulin clearly sensed the lethargy in her voice.
‘Elder Long is…’
Even though he had no idea how she acquired the information, there was no doubt that the information was accurate. With such an important tip in their hands, their next step would be to figure a way to infiltrate the War God Hall to seize the Eternal Heaven. At least, it was a better plan than being completely clueless earlier.
Tang Wulin figured that it had to do with the dispute between Elder Long and the Boundless Sea Douluo in the past. However, he could not confirm his surmise at the moment. There was fatigue in Elder Long’s voice.
However, Tang Wulin could not worry himself over this at the moment. There was nothing more important than acquiring the Eternal Heaven now.
“Gather all the available information related to the War God Hall from the Tang Sect.”
“Your Excellency, the item’s stored in the deepest end on the eighteenth level of the War God Hall’s headquarters. Can you please explain to me the situation in the War God Hall’s headquarters?”
Tang Wulin first extracted all the information related to the War God Hall from the Tang Sect. He then made a call to the Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi.
When he was in the Blood God Army, three of the Blood Gods from the Blood God Battalion came from the War God Hall. In addition, the Heartless Douluo kept in touch with the War God Hall frequently. He was a general before, so he had a good understanding of the War God Hall.
“Is the information accurate?” Cao Dezhi’s voice was obviously a few pitches higher.
