Free Web NovelChapter 1914: Chapter 1904: The Desolate Jia Zhenjing
After Lin Zifeng swiftly left Great Wilderness Mountain with his people, there was unrest on the side of Divine Sky Sect. It must be known that the long howl Shen Ji emitted before dying nearly covered Huishan entirely. As Shen Wuheng of Divine Sky Sect was refining the Immortal Suppressing Tripod and heard that despairing howl, he immediately opened his eyes wide. Two beams of solid light shot forth, as if he understood Shen Ji’s miserable defeat this time.
Then—Shen Wuheng led his family to assault the depths of Great Wilderness Mountain, where they found Shen Ji’s already deceased body, along with many fallen Peak Masters of the Main Peak. This battle led to Divine Sky Sect’s devastating defeat!
Staring at the few cold bodies lying in front of him, Shen Wuheng’s eyes reddened, and he let out a sky-shaking howl, "Ugh ah!!!!!!"
The furious howl embodied the immense anger within Shen Wuheng. But... the dead could not be revived, and no matter how sorrowful Shen Wuheng might be, it was of no use.
By the next day—the news of the Divine Sky Sect envoy’s death seemed to have grown wings; all of Huaxia’s factions were aware of the grave misfortune that had befallen Divine Sky Sect. Yet, everyone understood—even knowing that it was South Heavenly Gate’s doing, who would dare to provoke South Heavenly Gate for Divine Sky Sect’s sake? Knowing that South Heavenly Gate managed to kill the envoy on Divine Sky Sect’s territory while killing those from the Main Peak, even a fool could see that South Heavenly Gate’s rise was unprecedented...
The Divine Sky Sect envoy’s death led to Divine Sky Sect hosting a ritual lasting three days and nights, nearly blanketing Huishan. Divine Sky Sect pledged to find the murderer and avenge this shame! ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
However, Lin Zifeng, in Zhonghai City, had long disregarded this matter. He was currently convening a grand meeting, where all of South Heavenly Gate was present. Faced with these brothers who had braved life and death alongside him, Lin Zifeng thanked each one individually. If not for them risking their lives to save him during the Divine Sky Sect affair, he could not have returned alive. Without their relentless efforts, South Heavenly Gate would not see the glory it enjoys today.
All the glory of South Heavenly Gate was not Lin Zifeng’s alone! It belonged to everyone in South Heavenly Gate.
"Old Jia, do you plan to keep running around the world with that head of white hair?"
After the meeting ended, the old man turned his head to look at Jia Zhenjing’s white hair and couldn’t help but laugh. Given Jia Zhenjing was only in his thirties, the white hair made him look older than the old man himself, making the old man uncomfortable.
"Why? Are you uncomfortable with me having white hair? Jealous of your grandpa me? Do you think your grandpa looks more handsome with a head of white hair?" Jia Zhenjing smirked, indifferent, puffing on a cigarette, inhaling deeply before slowly exhaling a dense cloud of smoke towards the Void. With his head full of white hair, he wasn’t exactly thrilled either. It was the result of recklessly exhausting his Life Force. The heavy burden lay with Divine Sky Sect; if that divine battle hadn’t forced him to burn his Life Force, he wouldn’t have sacrificed his life for a fierce confrontation.
"Why not have Lin turn your white hair black again? Looking at your white hair makes the old man uncomfortable." The old man couldn’t help but want to laugh again, wanting to laugh whenever he saw Jia Zhenjing. He never seemed very sunny, and now, with a head full of white hair, he looked even stranger.
"No, I won’t have my white hair dyed black. This is good enough; I actually like this look now. Do you know what it’s called?"
The old man and Nangong Shui shook their heads, saying in unison, "Nope."
"Damn! I’m just playing my lute to a cow here. If you don’t know, what’s the point of talking?" After cursing, he felt a bit more comfortable. Despite saying he liked his current look, he clearly understood it wasn’t what he truly desired. If the situation hadn’t been so dire, he wouldn’t have risked burning his Life Force and ended up like this.
"Old Jia, should I let Lin dye your hair black?" At this moment, Lin Zifeng walked over. He had just used his x-ray vision to assess Jia Zhenjing’s situation. The cost of burning Life Force severely harmed his lifespan, stripping away at least ten years. If he never becomes a Saint, he won’t live more than ten years before dying. The consequences of such reckless Life Force burning are too great! The damage to his Elemental Power Seed was extreme.
"Kid, why are you getting involved? Didn’t you hear what I just said? I like my current look; it’s more handsome." Hearing Lin Zifeng suggesting dying his hair, he began to show some unwillingness. Despite his jovial words, he knew his ghostly condition meant he wouldn’t live beyond ten years.
"If you’re willing, your hair can be restored." With his x-ray vision, Lin Zifeng saw the illness source was on Jia Zhenjing’s abdomen Elemental Power Seed. Moreover, there was a thick black column of sickness over his head. If not treated soon, the white hair would be increasingly difficult to cure.
"No, I said no. Why are you people so annoying?" Suddenly, Jia Zhenjing slammed the table from his chair, smirked while saying "You’re so annoying" and left with a lonely silhouette. As he reached the doorway, he turned playful, looked back at the crowd and said, "Haha, I’m going out to ’be young’ for a while. I can look ten years younger again." Finishing, he left the meeting room with sharp and shameless laughter... Inside the meeting room, everyone looked at each other, still silent.
.........
After Jia Zhenjing left the meeting room alone, his complexion instantly turned ghostly pale. White enough to be startling, up close, his face appeared no different from a blank sheet of paper. Pu~ Then, he spilled a mouthful of bright red blood, which trickled from the corner of his mouth to his chin.
"Damn~ Those people from Divine Sky Sect are so damn tough. Forced me to bring out all my potential. Lucky I’m still alive; otherwise, I’d have lost big time."
Dragging his weakened body, he walked through the night, reaching a dense forest. His solitary silhouette looked extremely sorrowful, especially with his head full of white hair and frail body, his back hunched further. He staggered into the forest, finding a spot to rest, slowly sitting down against a tree.
Face pale like paper, gazing at the ink-dark night, he tugged a slight curve from his lips.
"Haha~ You said I should live well. I’ve lived this long, so I guess it’s worth it. I just wonder if I die, can I still see you?" Tears blurred his eyes, two crystalline droplets slipping from the corners. Regularly unruly, Jia Zhenjing, at this moment, seemed like a sentimental old man, staring up at the night sky, repeatedly murmuring a woman’s name in his mouth...
Like that, his voice gradually faded, but two crystalline tears hung in his eyes. He truly was a man who dares to bury all sentiment deep within his heart! No matter how difficult, he was willing to keep all his scars to himself, hiding away to lick his wounds.
