The Emperor Wants To Marry The Doctor-Chapter 2499 - Side Story 3: Forget the Past

2499 Side Story 3: Forget the Past

The thick smell of blood filled his mouth again. It was sticky and uncomfortable.

He raised his head slightly and closed his eyes. Actually, I should’ve died here 10,000 years ago… Or perhaps, I shouldn’t have known about it even earlier.

…

He was born extraordinary and proud.

There were countless geniuses in the Fantasy Divine Palace, but he still easily became one of the top.

He had been waiting for the day he ascended to the heavens—that was also the first day he saw her.

Goddess Yue was the Divine Master of Fantasy Divine Hall. She was peerlessly noble and imperiou; he had long known that. However, he didn’t know that her eyes were like stars and that she was incomparably beautiful.

This was the case until he officially entered the Fantasy Divine Hall for the first time.

At that time, almost no one dared to look directly at Goddess Yue’s face, but he was born rebellious. He just raised his head like that, his gaze direct and sharp.

He wanted to see what kind of person the rumored Goddess Yue was.

He thought that she would be angry, but she wasn’t. Instead, she raised her eyebrows as if she found it interesting, and she laughed.

“Yi Xiang?” Her smile was bright and her voice was clear.

Cen Yi was right. She indeed admired him very much; she had never treated him badly in terms of cultivation.

After ascending to the Deity Realm, he successfully stayed in the Fantasy Divine Hall, but that was all.

Goddess Yue spent most of her time in the main hall and the deserted garden, or heading to Qingyuan Hall, where the Emperor was.

Even in the Fantasy Divine Hall, ordinary people rarely saw her. After all, the entire Fantasy Divine Hall was too big.

Later on, when he heard that the 13 deities could meet her often, he was tempted. However, the deity positions had long been decided. Even if his talent and strength were superb, he couldn’t easily replace them.

Moreover, Goddess Yue didn’t have such thoughts to begin with.

However, his thoughts became heavier and heavier. Gradually, it became an obsession.

At that time, his strength was almost on par with the various deities; he could even compete with the strongest few. Yet, his identity still didn’t change.

Even if he waited all day, he could only take a look at her from afar.

He was naturally indignant.

He had to get whatever he wanted. Therefore, when the evil spirit found him later, he didn’t refuse.

The blood-colored pattern had already spread to his entire body, and his clothes were quickly drenched in blood. Under the clothes, the flesh had almost been corroded clean, and even the bones hurt.

Thump.

With a muffled sound, Jun Jiuqing kneeled down uncontrollably.

He suddenly felt something strange on his face. He reluctantly raised his hand to touch it.

It was covered in blood.

Oh no, his hands were already covered in blood.

Actually, at this moment, he couldn’t tell if it was his hand or the blood on his face. However, that was fine.

Jun Jiuqing exhaled softly and recalled what the evil spirit had said at that time: “…Goddess Yue and I are symbiotic and should be equal, but the Emperor took care of her in all ways and even helped her become the master of the Fantasy Divine Hall! How unfair is this! She has already sat in this position for so long. It’s time to change!”

This was the biggest secret between Goddess Yue and the evil spirit—even Goddess Yue herself didn’t know. She had never known about the existence of the evil spirit.

“Why should I help you?” He remembered asking such a question.

The evil spirit laughed for a long time. “The Emperor has raised Goddess Yue by his side since tens of thousands of years ago. He knew of my existence long ago. In order to prevent the Heavenly Dao from noticing, he had long forcibly separated me from Goddess Yue and tried to hide it. However, the truth always comes out. There is no concealing the truth.”

Rong Xiu lured the evil spirit into his body, hoping to hide it from the Heavenly Dao. This was because he knew that once the Heavenly Dao sensed the existence of the evil spirit, it would definitely order to kill him and Goddess Yue!

This concealment lasted for an extremely long time, but as time passed, Goddess Yue became stronger, and the strength of the evil spirit naturally increased. Moreover, during this process, Rong Xiu’s body was gradually corroded by the evil spirit’s power, and his holy force gradually became mottled.

Finally, the day came when he couldn’t hide it anymore.

In the end, the Heavenly Dao noticed this and ordered Rong Xiu to be killed.

Rong Xiu released the evil spirit and fought alongside Goddess Yue.

Goddess Yue had fallen, and only her soul was left. The evil spirit had also suffered a huge blow. He only needed to use some methods to easily hide the news that the evil spirit and Goddess Yue were still in the world.

“…The Emperor has racked his brains to plan, but in the end, it’s just a stalling tactic. As long as Goddess Yue returns to the Fantasy Divine Hall again, everything will still be revealed to the world! But as long as she doesn’t return, she and I can live in harmony. The Heavenly Dao will never know.”

Jun Jiuqing’s body fell back.

At this moment, the sky was a rare sunny day.

With the death of the evil spirit, Goddess Yue returned to the Fantasy Divine Hall with 3,000 God Realms and 3,000 kinds of battle intent.

All the blood energy and resentment dissipated.

This day was the best weather in the God-Killing Tumulus in 10,000 years.

The sunlight poured down, even a little blinding.

Jun Jiuqing opened his eyes and looked at the sky steadily. He didn’t feel any pain.

As far as the eye could see, the day was bright.

He could clearly feel the blood in his body flowing out continuously and seeping into the ground.

The surrounding temperature was also turning cold bit by bit. It was bone-chilling.

The blood-colored pattern had already wrapped around his entire body, corroding his flesh, blood, and bones bit by bit.

Refinement techniques could gather blood energy and condense a supreme holy force that could restrain evil spirits. However, this required the refiner to pay a huge price—using himself as a guide to withstand the pain of 10,000 souls biting him.

He thought that this would restrain the evil spirit and be a way out for her. And yet—in the end, he had calculated wrongly.

“…High Priest?” he muttered and then sneered in extreme disdain.

Suddenly, there was a cut on his throat, and blood gurgled out. As he breathed, he felt a bone-chilling pain.

The remaining syllables were finally vague in the blood that kept gushing out.

What he wanted was never the position of High Priest.

“If you help me defeat Goddess Yue and become the Divine Master, I’ll forever seal myself in the main hall of the Fantasy Divine Hall. As long as she doesn’t come back, she can live well.”

“As long as you keep her by your side, even if she lives an ordinary life, she will always belong to you.”

“Don’t you want her?”

He felt that if she could live and stay by his side, that would be the best.

Why fight for it?

Why snatch it again?

He was willing to put down all his ambitions and never enter the God Residence Realm—as long as she could still smile brightly and vividly like when they first met.

Jun Jiuqing raised his hand and covered his eyes.

Unfortunately, he had forgotten that she was a phoenix. In the end, she had to soar in the vast world.

Trapped in a corner, she wouldn’t like or accept it.

He had been wrong from the beginning.

Seeing that Rong Xiu’s divine power had been deprived for tens of thousands of years, her heart broke from crying.

Even if he also suffered the pain of being cut into pieces, perhaps she wouldn’t care. Fortunately, he could finally forget everything that had happened in the past. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵

The wind howled past.

In the sky, clouds gathered and scattered.
