Chapter 611 - Just an Asshole Making Others Miserable (1/2)

While Xiang Yu returned to watch Jing Yi, Xin Lan made his way to the Nine Heavens. Entering the capital city, he went over to the God of Love's palace. Ah, this really was a place he hated. He still vividly remembered the first time he had come here.

Just like today, he had walked down the path to the palace. It was just that today everything around him stayed silent without a god in sight while back then their whispers had accompanied him with every step.

”Look! Isn't that him? The one that wasn't cursed?”

”Yes, yes, I've seen him before.”

”I've heard people call him Senior even if they were of the older generation. Is it really true that he isn't affected by Tian's curse at all?”

Even now, thinking back to it Xin Lan couldn't help but clench his hands. Three millennia hadn't been enough for people to forget. Tian's curse was still in everyone's mind. Well, how couldn't it? Those that had lived back then and those that had been born in the future, they were all affected by it, their lives changing forever. Only the handful of children that had been about to be born in the three immortal races when Tian spoke his curse had been spared from his curse. And in those three thousand years, half of them had already died.

Now, all these years later, he was the only one left. The only one not inflicted with that damn curse.

Xin Lan reached the gate and nodded at the guards. ”Xin Lan from the dragon race has come to ask the God of Love for assistance.”

The two hurriedly nodded and one of them led him inside, announcing him to the God of Love. Xin Lan ignored him and just waited for the door to close behind him.

Seeing the white-haired god standing up from his desk, his brows furrowed. Ah, back then, it had been another person occupying this position and now, this one had gotten old. It faintly made him aware of how old he himself had gotten.

”Senior Xin Lan.”

”God of Love.” Xin Lan pushed the thoughts aside and nodded at the old god. That time was long past. He already wasn't the same person anymore. So what if there was nobody destined for him in the High Heavens? He had already found the person he cared for. Even if he was with somebody else, it wouldn't change his feelings.

The God of Love smiled and motioned at the chair at the other side of the table. ”What brings Senior Xin Lan here?”
