Chapter 3251: Ten Thousand Years of Snow

Chapter 3251: Ten Thousand Years of Snow

"Ye Chen."

This new era began with that roar.

It was a cry from the soul.

Sadly, the one called Ye Chen, that swindler who excelled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, the tenth emperor of Da Chu, no longer responded to the myriad realms and all living beings.

He had left.

This time, he had truly left, forever, never to return as Ye Chen.

Alas!

Everyone was crying.

The entire universe was mourning with wails.

It was to bid farewell to a heroic soul.

On this day, snow fell across the heavens, and the four seas and eight desolations were all a blanket of white.

On this day, countless statues were erected in the heavens.

They were statues of the tenth emperor of Da Chu, carved with great care, lifelike. Every stroke depicted his legend and his myth.

Offerings from the common people were made daily.

However, for a full month, no spirit emerged from the statues.

But the offerings did not stop.

For one lifetime, they would offer for one lifetime, and descendants would pray for him. Each statue was a symbol, also to tell future generations that there was once a person who, with blood and bone, exchanged for the light of the human world.

"I must be very fortunate."

Before a statue, a graceful figure stood, murmuring to herself.

She was Qi Huan, the sister of Hong Yan.

Yes, Ye Chen had also revived her, just to repay her a romantic fate.

She should be honored.

In the previous era, her sister-in-law was the commander of all living beings.

In this era, her brother-in-law was also the commander of all living beings.

She thought that no one in the world could surpass the Heavenly Court Female Emperor in brilliance, but Ye Chen overturned all her perceptions and even defeated the heavens.

"Kid, I wait for your return."

Shen Zun sprinkled wine. The war god of the Heavenly Court admired a person like this for the first time.

Not far away, Hong Yan stood quietly.

In the snow, her figure appeared somewhat frail, a quasi-desolate ancient sacred body, no longer the emperor who shook the universe, but more like a delicate woman, evoking pity, repeatedly brushing away the snowflakes falling on the statue.

"Ye Chen, we haven't dressed you in wedding clothes yet."

Hong Yan was there, as were Nan Ming Yu Shu, Ji Ning Shuang, Lin Shi Hua, and the others. In the dead of night, they would treat those statues as their Ye Chen, lying on his chest, only wishing to hear his heartbeat once. Day and night, their eyes were always misty, condensing into frost under the moonlight.

"My father is the greatest war god."

Ye Fan held a broom, sweeping the snow under the statue, murmuring repeatedly.

Yang Lan was also there, another from the cycle of reincarnation.

Similarly revived were Yang Ge Lao and Xia Lan, supporting each other to visit their in-laws, never imagining that the half-immortal from back then was a god who shook the universe.

"Dad."

Ye Ling hugged her knees, nestling against the statue, tears streaming.

"He is your root."

Still in that peach blossom forest, Di Ji combed the hair of Liu Dao, with a statue of Ye Chen in front, repaying their unfinished romance. He had left, but she would let this statue stand until the end of time.

Liu Dao was silent, just quietly watching.

He was still that dull self, his eyes still vacant, only when looking at the statue would he show a trace of bewilderment, and his eyes would inadvertently moisten.

"The snow of the mortal world, dancing for whom?"

Like Liu Dao, Hong Chen was also sitting quietly, had been for a long time, in a muddled state with emotion, his tearful eyes never drying from beginning to end.

"Ye Chen, thank you."

Hong Chen Xue and Chu Ling Yu murmured, not knowing how many times they had inserted musk.

"Ye Chen, thank you."

Qian Shang Yue's words of gratitude came from the soul.

At her side stood the muddled Shen Xuan Feng.

Like Hong Chen and Liu Dao, Shen Xuan Feng's tears were also for Ye Chen.

"You will return, waiting to drink with you."

Ming Jue brought wine and sprinkled it under the statue, along with his wife Qing Luan and child Ming Tian, who came to pay respects daily, only wishing to awaken a trace of Ye Chen's spirit.

"Brother."

Di Xuan's call was not for the emperor, but for Ye Chen.

As a being of the world, she was willing to call him brother.

Bathing in the sad snow, she and the Sixth Divine General stood as a pair.

May all lovers in the world become families.

This should be the long-cherished wish of the Da Chu space-time, entrusted in the cycle of reincarnation.

Now, this wish had blossomed throughout the human world.

Lifting their eyes, there were too many statues where couples formed pairs: Di Huang and Yue Shang, Mo Yuan and Hong Lian, Jiang Tai Xu and Feng Huang, Mu Liu Qing and Chi Mei Xie Shen, Xuan Huang and Yan Fei, Jiu Jian Xian and Yao Chi Xian Mu, Jian Fei Dao and Dong Huang Tai Xin, Xuan Yuan Di Zi and Yao Xin, Xuan Gu Di Zi and Bai Zhi, Tian Xu Di Zi and Wang Chuan Di Nu, Chen Yi and Di Jiu Xian, Long Jie and Ling Zu Shen Nu, Nan Di and Zhu Que, Hong Huang Qi Lin and Yun Xiao Zi, Yu Hua Xian Wang and Jiu Tian Xuan Nu, Zhuge Yu and Fu Ling, Long Yi and Murong Miao Xin, Long Wu and Dong Fang Yu Ling, Da Chu Huang Yan and Ning Cai Chen, Ye Xing Chen and Xing Yue Sheng Nu, Liu Yi and Nangong Yue, Zhou Ao and Yue Chi Xun, Hua Yun and Yao Xi, Xiong Er and Tang Ru Xuan, Xie Yun and Mu Wan Qing, Si Tu Nan and Ye Ru Xue, Zhao Zi Yun and Nangong Zi Yue, Dong Zhou Wu Wang and Wu Lei Xian Zi, Fifth Divine General and Wu Lei Shen Nu, Qin Xiong and Yin Yue Wang Fei, Kun Lun Shen Zi and Hua Shan Shen Nu, Yin Yang and Bi You Xian Zi.

He revived everyone and granted too many romances.

But he alone left nothing for Jade Maiden Peak.

Before leaving, not even a hug.

The commander of all living beings, the greatest war god, lived up to the entire world and all beings, but only let down his wife and children.

Alas!

Xuan Di, Gui Di, and Ming Di all sighed and came to pay respects.

The Emperor Dao F4 was missing one.

The emperor was also alive, but who knew where he went.

To find him, it was easy; just find the one called Meng Mo, and you could find the emperor.

Before the statue, Meng Mo stood quietly.

Looking at the statue of her former enemy, she couldn't hide a complex emotion. Captured by Ye Chen, she witnessed what was the will of all living beings and what was the decay of miracles.

She was also one of those offered in the world sacrifice.

From that moment, it was dust to dust, earth to earth, no more grudges.

Alas!

Sighing with her was Zi Zai Tian.

The former heavenly dao of the outer universe never truly admired anyone.

And the tenth emperor of Da Chu was the first.

"You bastard, since you're gone, leave the collectible edition behind!"

In the southern domain of Xuan Huang, there was also a massive statue standing tall.

Kui Niu, Da Di Wu Xiong, Xiao Yuan Huang, Chuan Shan Jia, Bei Ming Yu, Xian Wang He — the seven brothers, only missing Ye Chen. They spoke irreverently, but their eyes were brimming with hot tears. How many years had it been since they drank together?

Alas!

Sighs echoed from the five forbidden zones, from the five heavenly kings, the five forbidden zone emperors, Tian Zhu Di Mie, all standing before the statues, sincerely offering, and Xi Zun, Zhong Huang, Nan Di, Zhu Que, also offering endlessly.

"May you return against the heavens."

Ba Yuan took a deep breath, with Chen Zhan, Ming Gu, and others all present.

"May you return against the heavens."

The 130 emperors of Xuan Huang, the nine emperors of Da Chu, the nine divine generals of the emperor, the Yama of the underworld, Lao Jun, Yuan Shi Tian Zun, Tong Tian Jiao Zhu, the Chaos Body, were all there.

"May you return against the heavens."

Ren Wang, Long Ye, Zao Hua Shen Wang, Tian Lao Di Lao, Fu Ya, Zhou Yi, Nan Yong Sheng Ti, Ou Yang Wang, Dao Huang, Du Gu Ao, Long Cang Jie, Chu Cang Zong, the successive kings of Da Chu, the descendants of emperors, the peak of the supreme strong, silently offered.

"Dan Sheng, ah!"

Dan Zun, Dan Chen, Dan Yi, Dan Mo, also looked back on the glorious years.

"Big brother."

Hu Wa, with his iron bones, was also in tears, along with Xiao Ying, Zhang Feng Nian. The initial warmth of Heng Yue was their most inclusive memory with Ye Chen.

"Child, Heng Yue is waiting for you."

Heng Tian Shang Ren, Yang Ding Tian, Xu Fu, Pang Da Chuan, Zhou Da Fu, Feng Wu Hen, Li Dao Tong... too many elders had set up altars for Ye Chen.

"Da Chu specialty, without you, it's soulless!"

Xie Yun, Xiong Er, Si Tu Nan, Huo Teng, Xiao Ling Wa... too many peers, though they spoke irreverently, wiped away tears of heartache.

"Senior, the heavens still have vast mountains and rivers."

Zhang Zi Fan, Tai Yin Tai Yang, Zi Fu Xian Ti, Jiu You Mo Ti, Lie Huo Zhan Ti... the later talents, the later great emperors, all prayed devoutly.

"What a good child!"

The supreme beings of the Heavenly Court also brought a pot of wine, each pouring it out.

The Female Emperor was not seen.

She must be in some corner of the universe, waiting alone, not knowing if it was her waiting, or Chu Xuan Chu Ling waiting, with tearful eyes.

This snow seemed very long.

One year, two years, three years...

The universe of the heavens was still a vast expanse of white snow. One could see the offerings of all living beings, but Ye Chen's spirit did not emerge. Each statue remained as cold as ever; to find a trace of warmth, one had to search in memories.

In the third hundred years.

The Female Emperor separated into Chu Xuan and Chu Ling, and also into Wu Lei.

"Ye Chen."

Heart-rending roars echoed through the universe; they had all become tearful people. How many years had passed? Ordinary life was their greatest luxury. Now that light filled the human world, they had lost the one they loved most, not knowing if he existed in eternity.

Alas!

Wu Lei sighed; Wu Lei was not without emotion.

In the eighth hundred years, Shen Zun became a Desolate Emperor against the heavens, but he couldn't dispel this snow, nor find Ye Chen back. The supreme god was not omnipotent.

"No concept of time."

Shen Zun had deduced and spied more than once.

He reached a conclusion: No years in the snow.

Looking at ordinary people, eight hundred years without aging or death, as if living in eternity.

Perhaps, this was the long-cherished wish of the heavenly dao's cycle.

That person called Ye Chen, while granting light, also granted immortality, so that all living beings in the world could obtain eternity in an undying and imperishable state.

In the fifth thousand years, anomalies appeared in the starry sky.

There was a kind of dao sound that resounded through the human world for nine hundred years; there was a kind of anomaly that had been performing for nine hundred years, seeing eternity's startling glimpse, and also seeing immortality becoming divine splendor.

Unfortunately, it wasn't him.

In the ninth thousand years, the Female Emperor became a Desolate Emperor again, and together with Shen Zun, they cast divine abilities to pull that Ancient Sacred Body back to the human world, but they suffered extremely terrible backlash.

In the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth year, the seas turned to mulberry fields.

His statue was still just a statue, forever representing the tenth emperor of Da Chu. The offerings of all living beings had become vast oceans, but still, no spirit emerged.

A snow fell for ten thousand years.

Perhaps in the darkness, there was pity, and time had desolation, using ten thousand years of snow to sacrifice that heroic soul. Even if the heavens and earth aged, he did not come, the snow did not stop.
