Apocalypse: Transmigrated General’s Daughter Uses Space to Survive - Chapter 456

Chapter 456: Chapter 456: Sacrifice
“You are very calm about this all thing of sacrificing your power and soul to gather your wife’s soul and have her reborn.

The prophecy clearly said that even if you succeed, she might not be reborn in the immortal realm. How will you find her if she is born in the lower realms as a lowly commoner?” Nancheng asked again.

“Then I will descend to the mortal realm and find her. I just need the star to point me in the right direction, I will do the search myself.” Ye Xuan replied firmly.

“That could take decades, or hundreds of years, or even thousands of years. What will happen to the immortal realm then?” Nancheng asked, somewhat annoyed.

This was the reason he didn’t want to fall in love. A perfectly good king had turned into a love-struck fool who saw nothing but his wife ever since he met that Miao girl.

Now, he was even about to sacrifice his power just to gather her scattered soul. It was both touching and annoying.

“Aren’t you here? You always call yourself my brother, now it’s time to cash out on that brotherhood.” Ye Xuan didn’t seem worried as he casually gave his position as king to someone else.

“I should have known you were crazy when you insisted on marrying that unrestrained girl who only knows how to fight.

Anyway, I am not stepping in as the king. Since I know I can’t stop you. I will just hold the seat temporarily until you bring your wife back.

There is no way I am sitting on that throne.” Nancheng, who seemed to realize that he couldn’t escape his fate, finally relented.

“That’s good. I have to go to the ancient battlefield first. I can’t leave those demons running rampant here.

Make the preparations for the ritual. I will start once I come back.” Ye Xuan said and just as he stood up, someone budged into the throne room in a panic.

Ye Xuan didn’t even need to hear his message to know what had happened.

A melancholic atmosphere suddenly enveloped the entire palace and Ye Xuan just said, “I know what happened.” He then turned into a dark smoke and disappeared.

The person who had come to report was left standing there like a statue.

“The queen has fallen?” Nancheng asked.

The man who had come to report raised his head to look at Nancheng and nodded his head slightly while wondering how the news had reached the throne room even before he got there.

“Okay, you can go.” Nancheng dismissed the man before he also turned into a streak of light and disappeared.

He had to go make sure everything was ready for the ritual. Even though he was against it, he knew that his friend wouldn’t change his mind or give up the opportunity to bring his wife back.

All he could do was ensure that nothing went wrong.

The two people sleeping on the bed in the president’s residence suddenly woke up with sweat covering their bodies.

They turned to look at each other at the same time and both of them understood. They had had the same dream, or rather it was a memory of their first lives.

“You must have been the famous lord in the ancient era who no one dared to provoke said to be looking for someone.” Chu Miao suddenly remembered the rumors about a very powerful man referred only as the Lord who had been searching for someone and moved around the continent.

Just as she finished speaking, Ye Xuan felt a splitting headache assault him and he had to do everything in his power to prevent himself from screaming.

He held his head in his hands and pressed hard as if he was trying to crash it. He was doing what he could to reduce the pain but it wasn’t working.

Chu Miao noticed his abnormality, and held his head in her arms while transferring some light spiritual energy into his body to soothe the headache.

After about five minutes, the headache subsided. Then Ye Xuan raised his head and tears started falling from his eyes.

Chu Miao was so scared that she didn’t know what to do.

“What’s wrong? Did the headache hurt you? Do you need me to do anything? Or did my light energy clash with your darkness’ spiritual power and cause you problems?” She was bumbling without knowing what to do.

It was only when Ye Xuan pulled her into his arms that she stopped talking and stayed quiet.

“I remember.” Ye Xuan’s hoarse voice came beside Chu Miao’s ears.

“What?” Chu Miao asked.

She didn’t know what he meant when he said he remembered.

“The king and queen were me and you. And the lord you are talking about was me looking for you.

After you fell in the ancient battlefield, I arrived to find that nothing was left of you. Your contracted beasts had perished as well except for the vermilion bird which was heavily injured and the white tiger which had sacrificed its power to confine the fragments of your soul and prevent them from scattering immediately.

I wiped out the rest of the demons and helped seal the path they were using to enter the immortal realm before bringing back the injured vermilion bird to the palace.

The white tiger remained in the ancient battlefield because it had to use its aura to control the power confining the soul fragments until it was able to gather and enter the reincarnation path.

After arriving in the palace, I arranged for a safe place for the vermilion bird to recover before going to perform the ritual to help you gather your soul and guide it to the six paths of reincarnation.

By the time I was done, half my power was gone and my soul was unstable. The only way to make it whole was to enter the path of reincarnation but I wanted to find you, so I chose to remain without a whole soul.
