Chapter 978

~3 min read 498 words

"You are still here, aren't you?"

"I knew it, you would be fine..."

"The girl has been waiting for you, do you know?"

The Empress cries, laughs, and trembles, making one's heart ache and feel pity.

She never wanted to be an Empress.

She only wanted to stop losing people.

A warning from the past, a lesson written in blood.

Only by becoming stronger could she achieve this.

So she feared no hardship and cultivated diligently.

But, she still lost him.

Once again, it is too cruel.

"Jiang Nan, where are you?"

The Empress looks, cries, and her great divine ability begins to analyze.

Slowly, there is surprise, then her expression changes again.

"That trace of the ancient myth of being invincible in battle, it is exactly the same as yours; is it you?"

"You reached the Mythical Era."

"Every time I see it, there is a familiarity; it really is so."

"But the traces are too few, too old..."

Having received news of Jiang Nan and confirmed some things through deduction, she is very happy.

Then comes even more worry.

The Mythical Era is endless ages away from now.

Even if he was fine in the Mythical Era and invincible in the world, what then?

What of it?

Separated by endless ages, unable to meet.

In such an era, her era, Jiang Nan did not appear.

Has he already been worn away by the passage of time?

Time is the most ruthless; it can bury anything.

The greater the hope, the greater the collapse.

Even if he was fine before, he would be in trouble now.

She has never heard of anyone living this long.

Except for those who self-slashed and sealed themselves.

Even then, in endless ages, it is a matter of luck.

If things go wrong, they will be worn away.

The traces Jiang Nan left are the fewest, not even reaching the level of the nine Heavenly Venerables of the Mythical Era.

This also shows that he did not remain in the later ages for too long.

The nine Heavenly Venerables, more or less, existed in the later ages for many years.

Like the Longevity Heavenly Venerable, the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Venerable, etc., or some who were more low-key and cunning, and nothing could be tracked.

They all lived until their own eras.

Even those who did not live that long, or left the Immortal Path halfway, or encountered accidents, or something else.

They certainly existed for a long time; for example, they still existed during the Primordial Era.

They existed for too long, laid out countless plans, and had many backup strategies.

Compared to the moment they finally left, there was not much time.

They also spanned endless ages.

So they left many traces, and later generations all know of the nine Heavenly Venerables.

But later generations do not know Jiang Nan.

This also shows that he is not in this era; if he were, he should have come to find her.
