Chapter 560 - You Better Have a Good Reason (1/2)
Qiu Ling looked up at the person quietly talking to him. This was important. He knew that. This was about his Jing He, after all. But his Jing He was gone … He had been taken from him again. Once again, they were separated and he didn't know when they would see each other again.
He didn't want to believe it but could it be … Jing He had been right back then? Were they really a pair of star-crossed lovers like Tian and Xing? Would they forever be unable to be together? Would they always be separated like this? Would they never marry like he wanted them to?
He didn't want that. He didn't want to be without him. His Jing He … He was the only important thing in his life. The one he wanted to spent all his remaining years with. How should he go on without him?
”Longjun.” Leng Jin Yu shook his shoulder but the person in question obviously didn't listen. He was already in a world of his own and didn't seem like he would get out of it soon. Leng Jin Yu looked at Jinde for help.
”He should have a transmission stone in his spatial ring.”
”Can we get it without his help?”
Jinde shook his head. ”Just tell him you want it. He will hand it over. And you should contact the Heavenly Emperor directly. It's his son, after all, and a situation that concerns all of the Nine Heavens. The God of War might have the command over the army but he can't make this decision alone.”
Leng Jin Yu grabbed Qiu Ling's head again, making him look up. ”The transmission stone to reach the Heavenly Emperor.”
Before he could try to explain further, something was thrown at him. It was … indeed a transmission stone. Leng Jin Yu raised his brows and looked at Jinde.
His husband smiled in return. ”He trusts you. Naturally, he will hand it over. His condition right now … It's not that strange. Not even considering the rest, just the fact that the Son of Heaven is the person he bound his soul to will have a big impact on him. It's as if … he's caught in a circle of gaining and losing him again and again. It's hard to understand. No dragon would be able to take that forever. He'll need a moment to come to terms with it. Afterward … you should make sure you get out of his way. So contact the Heavenly Emperor fast.”
Leng Jin Yu wanted to question it further but Jinde's look made him stop himself. He could still talk to him afterward and find out what this was about. First, he really needed to get help.
He patted Qiu Ling's back again and raised the transmission stone, imbuing his spiritual energy.
The pale apparition of the Heavenly Emperor sprang up and immediately hollered at him. ”You better have a good reason to disturb me, you bast—” The Heavenly Emperor's eyes widened and he stared at the image of the person that was projected by the transmission stone. ”Uh … Who are you?”
Leng Jin Yu's brows twitched. ”Greetings, Your Majesty. This one is the ascended deity Leng Jin Yu. You might remember me from the investigation about His Highness' changed scroll of fate.”
