Chapter 839: Empyrean Scarletsea's Undying Love



Naturally, Henrietta was apologizing for exposing Empyrean Scarletsea's existence and risking the spread of her unique soul constitution.Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)c/o/m

Empyrean Scarletsea had strictly warned her to hide her innate specialty many times since it could draw the unwanted attention of high-level Divine Beings and threaten their lives.

However, Henrietta still chose to rely on Empyrean Scarletsea to send Great Devil Balmodan away.

More importantly, Empyrean Scarletsea couldn't even get angry at Henrietta since her action coincided with her own wish. Otherwise, she wouldn't have lent her empyrean aura to her.

'There's nothing to be sorry for. It was the most logical choice to make, my dear disciple,' Empyrean Scarletsea softly sighed in Henrietta's mind.

'These Great Devils have been comfortably used to others following their wills for countless thousands of years. We wouldn't have been able to send the Immortal Lycan King back to his territory if we couldn't scare him into believing how powerful we are.'

'Fortunately, exerting some empyrean aura was all it took to scare him off,' Empyrean Scarletsea added.

It would have been troublesome if Balmodan had gone to the moon to look for Vaan and find out about its secrets.

'Master, there's something this disciple doesn't understand. I hope you can enlighten me,' Henrietta suddenly requested.

Empyrean Scarletsea hesitated for a moment, but she eventually consented with a sigh. 'What don't you understand?' Empyrean Scarletsea asked, but she could more or less guess what her disciple wanted to talk about.

'In the past, you used to advise me to stay away from love strictly and lecture me on how it would only give me a lifetime of pain and sadness if my partner couldn't match my talent. Yet, you forced me into dual cultivation with Vaan,' Henrietta mentioned.

'Although you told me it was beneficial for my cultivation, you hardly made any effort to remind me not to fall in love. You should have felt the feelings growing inside my heart over time, Master. But to date, you still chose not to lecture me on it.'

'You've even made me teach him your True Divinity-rank cultivation method. Then, there's this instance where you also prioritized Vaan's benefits over our own. You didn't try to stop me at all.'

'From the start, the one you have been trying to help was Vaan and not me. Ever since we met him, I have become your second priority, Master. No matter how much I think about it, I can't figure out why you treat him so well.'

'What is?'

'I understand that Master and Mister Vanitas were a golden couple during your era, and it was very painful to lose him. However, he died very early on while you lived billions of years longer than him. Wouldn't such a long passage of time numb the pain of your loss?' Henrietta mentioned.

'If only it were that simple, my dear disciple,' Empyrean Scarletsea sadly sighed before saying, 'It might have been true if I only lost Vanitas once. However, Vanitas shared a sad

fate.'

'What do you mean, Master?' Henrietta asked curiously.

'What if I told you that throughout those billions of years, I desperately searched for Vanitas's reincarnations, only to have him die in my arms every time?' Empyrean Scarletsea sighed

sadly.

'The cruel heavens never seem to let his reincarnations live past a hundred years no matter what I do to prevent them...'

Henrietta immediately froze in shock. When she tried to imagine herself in such a situation, she couldn't help but shiver in fear.

She wasn't sure if her heart could take it if she had to watch her loved one die over and over for billions of years. Yet, her master was able to do it without fail until her body was destroyed and her soul scattered.

She couldn't even begin to imagine the difficulty of searching for the reincarnations of Vanitas across the universe every time.

The time and effort put into it must have been astonishing.

Furthermore, the reward for said time and effort was limited time with her loved one-only to watch him to some cruel fate over and over again.

Empyrean Scarletsea's undying deep love for Vanitas shocked Henrietta and made her wonder whether she deserved Vaan.

At the same time, she was also worried about whether Vaan could live past a hundred years. Why did Vanitas have to suffer such a cruel fate?
