Mixed emotions flickered in the Anatta Grand Exalt’s eyes. She stared into Jian Chen’s eyes silently, except it was quite obvious that she was anything but calm right now from her heaving chest.

During the dream of a century, only she had remained conscious the entire time, aware of who she was and what her identity was. She had not been like Jian Chen who had forgotten everything during the century, uncertain about his past, uncertain about his true identity, completely submerged in the dream and completing his life with the mind and mentality of a mortal.

“I understand now. That was a dream. Everything that happened in there was fake, including Wuyou and Wuhui. They were both an illusion in the dream. They did not exist,” Jian Chen murmured. He felt sorrow, disappointment, pain, and pity.

During the century in the dream, he spent his life plainly, finishing his life lovingly with this wife. Before death, he had even been surrounded by his children and grandchildren. His life had truly been complete, without any pity at all.

Only when he woke up from it did he discover it was actually all an illusion. Everything he experienced during that time was fake and did not actually exist, which was the source of Jian Chen’s depression.

“Wuyou and Wuhui were fake. All of the grandchildren were fake as well. But Zhen, she actually existed, right? Y-you’re Zhen. Am I right?” Jian Chen stared at the Anatta Grand Exalt. At this moment, he no longer cared about the fact that she was the greatest sovereign in the Saints’ World anymore. All he wanted was an answer.

A century of marriage, a century of love, and a century of accompaniment. Jian Chen’s soul had been through all of that, so it was no different from reality.

As a result, the century-long dream still affected Jian Chen.

As for Zhen, she had already become his dearest love, his wife that he had spent a lifetime with.

In the distance, all of the peak experts heard Jian Chen and widened their eyes.They were filled with extreme shock and disbelief.

The first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng’s mouth even hung agape for quite a while.

“Wuyou and Wuhui? The grandchildren? Heavens, just what did the Anatta Grand Exalt and Jian Chen go through in the dream?”

“Grandchildren? Even a fool could guess what that implies. It’s absurd, completely absurd!”

“Impossible, that’s completely impossible!”

......

For a moment, all of the experts present experienced an upheave of emotions. They were left tongue-tied.

They were all monsters that had lived for countless years. What hadn’t they seen? What hadn’t they experienced? They could guess everything from Jian Chen’s words and expression.

“You have to answer me. Are you still refusing to give me the true answer even when I’m about to die? You don’t want me to die knowingly?” Jian Chen stared straight at the Anatta Grand Exalt.

The Anatta Grand Exalt shut her eyes as if she was rather afraid to meet Jian Chen’s eyes. She said extremely softly, “You’re right. Apart from you and me, everything was fake.”

“So… Zhen was you.” Jian Chen blanked out. He stared at the great beauty before him with a mix of emotions. He had no idea what to think of this.

In the dream, they had shared the same bed. They had been a loving couple for a century long.

But in the Saints’ World, she was the greatest sovereign who possessed paramount authority!

.

Jian Chen extended his trembling hand, slowly reaching towards the Anatta Grand Exalt’s cheek, wanting to touch her face.

It was as if the supreme beauty right before him was no longer the greatest sovereign of the Saints’ World, but his loving wife that he had spent a century married to in the dream.

As a result, he completely did this out of instinct, out of the habit he developed in the dream.

However, his instinctive actions utterly frightened all of the experts present. They all held their breaths. Their hearts seemed to stop beating.

That was the greatest sovereign of the Saints’ World. Just how esteemed was her status? Yet Jian Chen was actually trying to stroke her cheek. That was simply insane.

As Jian Chen’s hand reached closer and closer to the Anatta Grand Exalt, the experts in the distance all widened their eyes. Their gazes were fixed on Jian Chen as if they wanted to see how he would die and also as if they wanted to see what fate he would suffer.

It was not just them. Even Overarching Heavens, Bloodtear, and the Wind Venerable who were currently locked in battle could not help but look over.

Nothing happened. Under everyone's watch, Jian Chen’s hand pressed gently against the Anatta Grand Exalt’s cheek. He did not show any unfamiliarity at all. Everything seemed so natural.

Because of the century they spent together in the dream, this had already become a habit, an action of instincts.

The Anatta Grand Exalt shut her eyes. Her body shook gently, but she did not resist.

At that moment, time seemed to stop and the air seemed to freeze. The Wind Venerable, the Bloodtear Grand Exalt, and the Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt subconsciously stopped fighting.

In the distance, all of the late Grand Primes felt like their hearts were about to leap out of their throats.

That was the Anatta Grand Exalt, yet at this moment, she actually let a man touch her face in public. This was completely unheard of.

“Zhen, I know I’m destined to die today just from my identity as a successor of the Immortals’ World, regardless of whether I’m your fruit of ways or not. You saved my life in the past, so I have no regrets if I am able to die by your hand. I only hope you can promise one thing. Don’t let the Tian Yuan clan of the Cloud Plane be affected because of me.”

“They’re the group of people that I can’t stop worrying about. I hope they can be well. This is my final wish.”

“Zhen, could you promise me, in consideration of the century we spent together…” Jian Chen said softly.

The Anatta Grand Exalt shut her eyes slowly. She gazed towards Jian Chen tenderly. Her eyes were filled with pain and sorrow. Suddenly, she took a step forward and kissed Jian Chen without hesitation.

On one side was a Chaotic Prime, someone as puny as an ant in the eyes of Grand Exalts. On the other side was the greatest sovereign of the current day in the Saints’ World. These two people who differed tremendously in both status and strength just kissed deeply in outer space.

When their lips made contact, the entire region fell silent. Everyone’s hearts nearby stopped beating. Even the seven Saint Monarchs were stupefied.

As for the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, she seemed like she had lost her soul. She no longer had the courage to believe that this was her great master.

After a very long time, their lips parted, and there were already tears on the Anatta Grand Exalt’s face as if she had just gone through a true parting of death, overcome with grief.

“I… promise… you…” The Anatta Grand Exalt’s voice was rather shaky. After saying that, her presence suddenly changed. The laws weaved through her eyes and the ways manifested as if the birth of a universe was unfolding in her eyes.

Suddenly, she let out a sorrowful howl. Her eyes were completely bloodshot, waving her hand gently towards Jian Chen without any hesitation.

With that, the world rumbled and the laws were thrown into disorder. The entire space there collapsed. A terrifyingly destructive power, tremendous beyond belief, hurtled towards Jian Chen without any hesitation.
