c1935: 1978: Companionship

Jiang Fan was momentarily stunned, then understood and said:

"Are you saying this feather can help me dissolve the ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’?"

Little Rou’s beautiful eyes sparkled: "To be precise, it’s a trace of Holy Angel Blood within it."

"As long as you can refine it into your body, this power will be dissipated, and the enslavement broken."

"Moreover, this trace of Holy Angel Blood can also continuously provide Holy Power to nourish your Void Feather Robe and Angel Magical Artifact."

Jiang Fan held the golden feather, deep in contemplation.

To unravel the enslavement, naturally, was the best outcome.

The male Five Qi Angel Lord earlier had intended to activate the ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’ within him for control.

Leaving hidden dangers unsolved is not an option.

The problem is, the ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’ still has some use for him now.

If this feather destroys the ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’, it would be a loss outweighing the gain.

Little Rou’s eyes dimmed slightly, feeling uneasy, she said: "You... don’t like it?"

Jiang Fan smiled: "I like it, thank you, Miss Little Rou."

Once the Heavenly Realm is vanquished and the ’Heavenly Thunder Six Parts’ is no longer needed, then he’ll refine this blood.

Little Rou happily said: "That’s good. As long as Senior Jiang is helped, Little Rou is relieved."

The female Five Qi Angel Lord gave Little Rou a deep look, her lips parted as if to say something, but she chose to remain silent.

Jiang Fan put away the golden feather, turned to the Pavilion Master, and said:

"These Heavenly Realm guests, I’ll leave them to you, Pavilion Master, to settle."

He looked at Yun Shang and True Words, a smile breaking at the corners of his lips as he unabashedly pulled the two women into his arms, saying: "Let’s go, find Caiyi and Qingxian."

Yun Shang and True Words felt a trace of unfamiliarity.

There were still four days left until the agreed day of counterattacking the Heavenly Realm.

This was far more dangerous and important than the past preparations for a life-and-death battle with the Young Emperor.

Given Jiang Fan’s nature, he should immediately enter seclusion.

Unexpectedly, his first action was to spend time with them.

"Husband, are you okay?" True Words felt a trace of unfamiliarity.

In Jiang Fan’s serene eyes, there appeared a trace of life insight and clarity, he softly said:

"Nothing, just wanted to spend more time with you."

He looked down at the two beautiful faces, emotions stirring in his heart:

"Since I met you, my steps have always been towards distant places, rushing constantly towards the unknown."

"I am not unaware that beside me are you, more precious than the Martial Path."

"Time and again, I’ve thought of stopping after crossing the mountain ahead, yet when I stand on the peak, I find there’s another river, and beyond the river, a vast grassland."

"Over and over, the road ahead never ends."

"I think, it’s time to stop and wait for you."

"Otherwise, on some unintentional day, you might vanish from my life, never to be seen again."

He spoke gently, unknowingly hugging True Words and Yun Shang tighter.

Lianjing Venerable’s previous death had deeply shocked him.

The great path is heartless.

Those around him will also have a day of falling.

Yesterday it was Lianjing Venerable who left, who will it be tomorrow?

Will it be Yun Shang?

Or True Words, who is about to step into the void?

Or perhaps it’s Gong Caiyi, who is with child?

Who knows whether tomorrow or accidents will arrive first.

He should stop, spend more time with them, so that the future won’t be left with regrets.

Yun Shang felt very content, leaning her head on his shoulder with a smile.

True Words, however, recalled Xingyuan Venerable who had been busy for ten years, falling without ever having a good talk with her, his daughter.

How much are Jiang Fan and his father alike?

The difference is, Jiang Fan stopped.

For a moment, she didn’t know whether to be sad or happy, as two lines of silent tears fell, quietly sobbing in Jiang Fan’s embrace.

Not long after.
