Traveling Back Early: Forcing the Young Empress to Sign a Lifetime Servitude Contract

138: Send me to ascend to immortality!Bang bang bang—

Several sounds of breaking wind suddenly rose.

Several crystal-clear ice bodies, shaped like ice coffins made of condensed crystal, descended from the sky in an instant, covering Luo Yin, Ji Qianyou, and the other women.

Boom—

The powerhouses of the Human and Demon Races were pale with shock, immediately erupting with majestic Profound Power.

”Don’t move!”

At this moment, a shout rang out from each of the two racial camps;

One was the Honorary Alliance Master of the Demon Alliance, Lin Ya, and the other was a Director of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, Li Yan.

The former, as Chen Qingxuan’s spokesperson in the Demon Alliance, had long held real power, while the latter, as the person in charge of the Heavenly Dao Alliance personally appointed by Chen Qingxuan, had also won over the crowd.

The two spoke in unison, suppressing the crowd that was on the verge of going berserk, and looked at Chen Qingxuan with complex expressions.

”Brother, what are you doing?”

”Revered Master, why have you locked us up?”

At this moment, the women covered by the ice bodies were even more confused.

”Qingxuan, don’t do anything reckless.”

Compared to the bewildered women, Luo Yin was particularly nervous as she slapped the ice body, ”You cannot throw the people of the Human and Demon Races into the Void Fissure...”

”In your eyes, am I really that cold-blooded?”

Chen Qingxuan interrupted with a smile.

”Eh?”

Hearing this, Luo Yin’s delicate expression shifted;

Touching those serious, starlike eyes, in an instant, she seemed to realize, ”You... you aren’t planning to enter the Void Fissure yourself, are you?”

Chen Qingxuan walked up to her, ”What? I don’t look like the kind of person who would sacrifice his life for righteousness?”

”You...”

Luo Yin couldn’t organize her words for a moment.

Her current mood was like a roller coaster; clearly, he had shown such resistance before, yet at the critical moment... he suddenly stepped forward?

Then, Chen Qingxuan said again: ”But I’m really not the kind of person who enjoys self-sacrifice. After all, to survive, I’ve been thinking of solutions for these past decades. Now that I’ve finally found a way, the result is that I have to sacrifice myself... To be honest, it’s really damn unlucky. I really wanted to throw the people of the Human and Demon Races in to blow up the rift... But don’t worry, I’m just complaining... Nine-year compulsory education wasn’t for nothing.”

”Qingxuan, you... since you’re not going to sacrifice the Human and Demon Races, let me out first!” Luo Yin patted the ice body in front of her and said.

Chen Qingxuan shook his head, ”You have to stay inside... until my Physical Body is destroyed... only then will you regain your freedom.”

”Why?”

Luo Yin pressed for an answer, not understanding.

”I don’t want you to be misunderstood by Susu and the others, thinking you forced me to sacrifice myself. You have to tell them this was my own choice, and... tell them not to worry, I’m just leaving for a while.” Chen Qingxuan glanced at the women not far away before looking back at Luo Yin to instruct her.

”You...?”

Luo Yin was instantly stunned;

Looking at the handsome face so close at hand, at this moment, she finally understood Chen Qingxuan’s painstaking efforts.

”Qingxuan...”

Luo Yin wanted to say something more;

But Chen Qingxuan knew time was limited and had already turned to walk toward Ji Li and the others.

The women were not fools. In this situation, how could they not see that Chen Qingxuan intended to enter the Void Fissure in place of Luo Yin?

”Revered Master, I don’t agree with you doing this... You can’t!”

”You’re not allowed to go... Brother, let me go quickly... If you go, I’m going too.”

Ji Qianyou and Jiang Susu said urgently.

As they spoke, they even tried to destroy the ice bodies restricting their movement, but unfortunately, this was a trump card Chen Qingxuan had prepared long ago for today;

Whether from the inside or the outside, breaking it was by no means easy.

This amount of time was enough.

At this moment, the hearts of Ji Li, Xuan Ling, Pei Qingli, and the other women were also far from calm.

Chen Qingxuan first walked up to Ji Li and said with feigned ease: ”Wife, you know I’ve eaten the lotus of life, so don’t worry like they do.”

”But...”

Ji Li’s lips parted slightly, hesitating to speak;

For some reason, she had a faint, inexplicable unease in her heart... Perhaps she had never thought that one day, Chen Qingxuan would leave her world... even if it might only be for a while.

But this ’while’... how long would it be?

”It’s alright.” Chen Qingxuan gave her a reassuring look and said, ”It’s not like you don’t know me; I never do things I’m not sure of... After I’m gone, help me explain things well to Qian You and the others. Most importantly, don’t let them worry.”

After saying that, Chen Qingxuan looked at The two women who were trying to destroy the ice bodies;

Although he also really wanted to comfort Susu and Qian You, seeing their agitated states... he feared that saying too much would only lead to reluctance to leave.

Thus, he chose to depart.

Seeing Chen Qingxuan part from the women, Lin Ya and Li Yan also flew over.

”Alliance Revered Master... Alliance Master Chen.” Li Yan spoke first with a complex mood, ”Have you really made up your mind?”

Chen Qingxuan smiled faintly, ”Stop talking nonsense. Didn’t I explain it clearly in the letter I gave you back then? Since joining the Heavenly Dao Alliance... I’ve been waiting for this day.”

”...”

The words Li Yan wanted to say couldn’t come out;

Thinking back to over a year ago, he still regarded Chen Qingxuan as the highly respected Senior Chen, never expecting the secret letter the other party gave him... would honestly confess that he was Chen Qingxuan.

At that moment... he hoped he was dreaming.

Firstly, he couldn’t accept Chen Qingxuan’s identity, and secondly... he couldn’t accept that the Cangyun Continent was about to face its day of destruction.

At this moment, Chen Qingxuan looked at Lin Ya with a smile, ”Elder Lin, you haven’t forgotten your promise to me, have you... You must not let me down!”

”Lord Demon Emperor...”

Lin Ya’s expression was moved;

But in the next moment, as if having made a decision, he took a deep breath, ”Rest assured, Lord Demon Emperor, this old man... will definitely not disobey your orders!”

”Alright, prepare to start working!”

Chen Qingxuan gave the order.

”Yes!”

Lin Ya and Li Yan looked at each other. Although they had never had any interaction before, at this moment... they knew the other was their most important ally;

The previous grudges between the two races seemed insignificant at this moment.

After the two flew back to their respective camps;

Chen Qingxuan took one last look back, then looked up at the black rift in the Void Realm and took the first step—

Boom!

The air beneath his feet seemed to become steps. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Qingxuan strode forward, step by step approaching the top of the firmament... ”System, is it really possible that the lotus of life won’t work?”

[To Host, although the lotus of life has the power to reshape the Physical Body, the prerequisite is that at least a strand of the soul remains. If the Soul Body is also completely shattered... it will be completely erased from the world, and naturally, there will be no possibility of resurrection.]

”Do you think... I can leave behind a strand of soul?”

[The System has already answered the Host; this belongs to an unknown variable, and the result cannot be deduced...]

”Forget it, just treat it as having had a dream.”

Chen Qingxuan showed a smile of relief;

After all, he was originally just a passerby to this world.

Just before entering the rift;

Chen Qingxuan, whose heart was already as calm as still water, looked at the powerhouses of the two races who were ready and smiled slightly,

”Everyone, send me to Ascension!”
