Chapter 328: The Great Jing Immortal Dynasty (16)
Those terrifying figures were actually scheming against Heavenly Martial Emperor!
Nan Hongsang struggled to raise her head. She watched the powerful beings celebrate their victory with smug expressions. Was she merely a pawn in their game?
Nan Hongsang smiled bitterly. The current situation was dire beyond words.
Zhuge Yao believed that as long as the Heavenly Martial Emperor was still alive, he could save the Great Jing Heavenly Dynasty. But Nan Hongsang knew better. Even if Heavenly Martial Emperor were still alive, he could not reverse the tide of this war.
Facing the judgmental gazes around her, Nan Hongsang seemed to abandon all resistance. She leaned against her broken spear and carefully placed the last piece of Worry-Free Pastry into her mouth.
Worry-free… worry-free…
Nan Hongsang thought back to her first meeting with Su Chen. Ever since the time she had accidentally pushed him into the river, causing the powerless Su Chen to fall gravely ill, she had kept coming back. She was never particularly fond of Worry-Free Pastries. She simply wanted to close the distance with that lonely figure.
Yet even now, she could not abandon the convictions in her heart. She had witnessed too many human tragedies, seen her people reduced to livestock—or worse than livestock. She could not forsake her beliefs for the sake of love.
"I only hope that when my husband hears of my death, he will not grieve… May he marry a good woman and live out his remaining days in peace, free from the world's scorn."
