After we broke up, I awakened my divine body. Why are you crying?

Chapter 262: Respect for the Past

Everyone in the audience focused their attention on it.

The Kunlun Saint walked slowly towards Tang Qingman. She bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Third Princess."

"You are welcome, Saint. Please take a seat."

Tang Qinglan did not dare to neglect her and pulled her to sit in an empty seat next to hers.

The saint from Kunlun in the Eastern Wasteland, a peerless beauty whose reputation spread throughout the five regions of the world, and now that she has achieved enlightenment, she is much more extraordinary than almost everyone present.

The kings of the younger generation, such as the proud Demon Emperor, dare not underestimate him.

"I have always heard of the fairy's beauty. I am so lucky to see her today."

Not long after the Kunlun Saint sat down, some ordinary people could not help but speak, all with fiery eyes.

Who can resist being moved by such a peerless beauty?

If I can gain your favor, it would be worth dying for.

Everyone knows that Kunlun's way is to cut off all emotions and desires.

Once you achieve enlightenment, all past events and memories will be cut off.

This is a brand new beginning.

The so-called cutting off is a kind of selective forgetting.

Like a new life, all her experiences before enlightenment had been erased from her mind.

"There are so many proud young men in the Eastern Wilds, but I never thought that among the young generation of the time, it would be the Saint Girl who would be the first to achieve enlightenment. It really makes us ashamed." Jiang Ning couldn't help but speak.

He has the blood of the emperor in his body and thinks himself extraordinary. In terms of talent and potential, there are only a handful of young people in the Eastern Wilderness who can compare with him.

"You are……"

The Holy Maiden of Kunlun was startled when she heard this and looked towards Jiang Ning.

After she attained enlightenment, she forgot a lot of her past events and didn't remember anyone she had met before.

Jiang Ning smiled bitterly, and then introduced himself, "My name is Jiang Ning."

"So it's the bloodline of the ancient emperor of the Jiang family. I'm sorry." The Saint of Kunlun reacted quickly.

She just forgot those familiar faces and some past experiences, but she still knew some common sense questions.

She remembered the names of young kings, such as the ancient emperor's bloodline of the Jiang family, the saints of the major holy places in the East Wilderness, the princes of the ancient clans, but she had forgotten their appearance.

"It is said that if the Kunlun Dao is truly perfected, the past will be erased from the mind. I didn't quite believe it before, but I didn't expect it to be true." Prince Long was also a little surprised and couldn't help but speak.

Tang Qingman smiled and said, "It can be considered a kind of rebirth, but not entirely."

After saying that, she began to introduce the identities of everyone present to the Holy Maiden of Kunlun.

"The Saint really doesn't recognize me anymore?"

Ji Chen remained silent. When Tang Qingman introduced him, Ji Chen finally couldn't help but ask this question.

The Holy Maiden of Kunlun was stunned for a moment, and looked at him with her beautiful eyes, appearing very calm, as if she was looking at a stranger.

She shook her head slowly.

Ji Chen was a little disappointed, even though he had anticipated this result.

But when this moment really came, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

In the past, the thirteen years of life and death friendship with the Kunlun Saint in the Empress's Taoist temple have now become a thing of the past.

Besides herself, the only two Kunlun Saintesses who knew about that experience also cut it off in their minds after they achieved enlightenment.

"Sir, do you have something I gave you?" She suddenly frowned and asked.

Obviously, at this moment, the Holy Maiden of Kunlun sensed a familiar aura on Ji Chen.

After achieving enlightenment, she has cut off her past and chosen to stay away from all past events, otherwise she will likely suffer backlash from the avenue.

It will remain so as long as cause and effect are not severed.

Perhaps it was due to the way of cutting off all emotions and desires, the familiar aura on Ji Chen made the Kunlun Saint feel vaguely uncomfortable.

This is a kind of rejection that comes from the Tao.

Ji Chen was stunned when he heard this.

He thought carefully, although he had a good relationship with the Kunlun Saint before, Ji Chen was sure that the other party had never given him anything.

"Maybe the Saint misunderstood something." Ji Chen shook his head.

Upon hearing this, she stood up and walked towards Ji Chen.

When they were three steps away, Kunlun Saint said with great certainty, "That feeling cannot be wrong. You must be hiding something related to me. I hope you can hand it over."

She spoke very seriously, her brows slightly furrowed. This matter concerned the backlash of the way of cutting off emotions and desires, and the Kunlun Saint did not dare to be careless.

Seeing her look as if she was an enemy, Ji Chen couldn't help but frown.

We once knew each other, but now we are not only strangers, but we may even become enemies because of some unknown things.

The contrast between before and after is really heartbreaking.

"correct……"

During the silence, Ji Chen seemed to have an epiphany, as if he remembered something.

"Buzz!"

He raised his right hand slightly, and then he saw a faint light coming from his index finger, and three strands of hair were wrapped around his fingertips.

These were the three marks that the Holy Maiden of Kunlun had left on Ji Chen, and she had said that they could help him save his life three times.

But until now, Ji Chen has never used it even once.

"The familiar aura that the Saint sensed should be this." Ji Chen spoke, and then flicked his fingers, and saw the three strands of hair fly out and float in front of the Saint of Kunlun.

She took it with her hand, letting the hair fall into her palm. After examining it for a moment, she said, "This is indeed my mark. How did it get on your body?"

Obviously, she no longer has these memories of the past.

Moreover, the Holy Maiden of Kunlun did not understand why this young man who possessed the divine body of the Eastern Wilderness had her mark on him.

She was sure of her character, and even if she really knew Ji Chen before she became enlightened, she would never give him away so easily.

"It doesn't matter anymore." Ji Chen shook his head, not intending to explain.

Upon hearing this, Kunlun Saint frowned even more. She remained silent and looked at Ji Chen for a long moment before she said, "Anything else?"

"No more." Ji Chen shook his head.

"So best."

She spoke calmly, then pinched her fingers lightly, annihilating the three strands of hair into ashes, and spoke with a somewhat indifferent expression, "Everything before enlightenment is now a thing of the past for me. I just hope that there will be no more karma related to me, young master. Otherwise, if you cause me to suffer a backlash, Kunlun will definitely not forgive you."

The voice was very faint, but it was extremely clear, as if issuing some kind of warning to Ji Chen.

Ji Chen said nothing, sitting there, looking at her quietly. After a moment, he suddenly raised his glass and said, "This wine is for the past."

After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

"Once you achieve enlightenment, everything becomes nothing, and from now on we are just strangers when we meet again."

Shaking his head and whispering, Ji Chen stood up, walked out of the bamboo forest without looking back, and finally disappeared into the night.
