Chen Jing turned around, his fists clenched tightly, refusing to kneel, and said with a face full of unwillingness:
"I did nothing wrong!"
"The Master is mine alone, no one else is allowed to take them!"
True Word Venerable was full of anger.
With a wave of her slender hand, the powerful might of a Venerate pressed Chen Jing to the ground.
"Shameless to the extreme! I am your Master!"
"How can you have improper thoughts about your Master!"
Chen Jing gritted his teeth, willing to be suppressed to the ground, but never kneeling, and said unwillingly:
"You’re younger than I am. Back when I saved you, I was a Sixth-stage Nascent Soul, and you weren’t much higher as an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul."
"You have no qualifications to be my Master."
"But why I acknowledged you as my Master, do you not realize?"
"I just wanted to stay by your side!"
"I thought, when I also enter the Divinity Transformation Realm, I would be the youngest Venerable in Taicang State, like you, and be the only partner you could choose."
"But my luck was bad, and my last attempt at Divinity Transformation failed, but I’m not discouraged, I will try again to achieve Divinity Transformation."
"Just to finally walk with you together!"
"But I never expected Jiang Fan to suddenly appear and have you!"
"What I cannot accept is that you even have feelings for him!"
"So, I must act ahead of time, I must have you!"
Listening to Chen Jing’s unprecedented claims, True Word Venerable felt neither moved nor shocked.
All she felt was disgust.
She stepped back, speaking coldly, "You’re overthinking it."
"Even if you break through to the Divinity Transformation Venerable Realm, even if you become the youngest in Taicang State aside from me, I still wouldn’t choose you."
"You are not exceptional enough to make me cross the master-disciple boundary to be with you."
"Moreover, my father is a Great Venerate of the Heavenly Human Five Declines."
"If I were to find a partner, it would be someone like my father, a peerless existence, not you!"
What?
Chen Jing gritted his teeth, finally realizing everything he did was one-sided.
No matter how hard he tried, he could never gain the recognition of True Word Venerable.
"Then what about Jiang Fan?"
"His cultivation is not even as high as mine, yet you could damage your Domain for him, die for him!"
"You are lying!"
True Word Venerable said coldly, "I have no romantic feelings for Jiang Fan, only admiration."
"That’s all!"
After a pause.
True Word Venerable’s eyes suddenly narrowed: "How do you know I damaged my Domain for Jiang Fan?"
"You know the secret I kept for him?"
Thinking of this, she looked at the Jade Scroll in her hand and sensed something, her face changed drastically.
"Heart Evil Domain?"
"You met with Venerate Xinnie?"
"You reported to him?"
Chen Jing laughed, a cold laugh: "That’s right!"
"If I can’t have the Master, Jiang Fan can’t either!"
"Now, he should have been skinned alive by Venerate Xinnie, tortured to death, right?"
"After all, he dared impersonate Venerate Xinnie’s True Disciple."
"If I were Venerate Xinnie, I would make sure he cannot live or die either!"
True Word Venerable swayed slightly.
Angry, she said, "You should die!"
"Jiang Fan’s abilities can make significant contributions against the Ancient Giants and protect many people."
"Killing him is tantamount to killing many innocent people!"
Chen Jing shouted fiercely, "I don’t care!"
