Chapter 1784: Believe!

After a while.

When Qin Chen held Lin Songyun’s hand and left the bamboo grove.

Aunt Qing finally walked over from a distance.

In fact, Qin Chen had noticed Aunt Qing long ago. Upon seeing her approaching, Lin Songyun’s eyes showed some avoidance, wanting to withdraw her hand from Qin Chen’s grip.

But Qin Chen held Lin Songyun’s hand tightly.

Qin Chen faced Aunt Qing directly: "Senior, we meet again."

Aunt Qing said: "According to our agreement, you need to reach the Tongtian Realm in ten years to meet Song Yun. Have you reached it now?"

Qin Chen smiled faintly: "Strictly speaking, no."

Aunt Qing said: "I know you two are deeply in love, but an agreement is an agreement, you..."

"Boom!"

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from Qin Chen’s body, terrifying and intimidating, making Aunt Qing jump in fright, her eyes momentarily stunned.

Beside him, Lin Songyun’s beautiful eyes also froze.

"Though my cultivation hasn’t reached the Tongtian Realm, I think any Tongtian Realm master wouldn’t withstand a single move from me. Does this count as fulfilling the agreement?"

Qin Chen said with a slight smile.

At this moment, his entire presence was as radiant as the stars in the sky, his black hair fluttering.

Aunt Qing knew very well that Qin Chen was not exaggerating.

Because under Qin Chen’s aura, she felt an irresistible illusion.

"Aunt Qing, some things, once unavoidable, should be overcome."

"Trust us."

Qin Chen raised Lin Songyun’s hand, and Lin Songyun, who was about to let go, held on more tightly.

Aunt Qing stood there for a while, finally sighing.

She looked at Qin Chen: "Child, do you know what you are up against? Do you know what will happen if you stop this marriage in seven days?"

"No matter what."

"Song Yun is mine, and I will never let her fall into anyone else’s hands. Not Ji Zongwen, not even the Star Emperor."

Qin Chen’s response was almost instant, without any hesitation.

This determination, persistence, and confidence made Aunt Qing feel as if she was seeing Qin Chen for the first time.

"How did you get in?"

Suddenly, Aunt Qing seemed to realize something, her face changing slightly.

She suspected Qin Chen might have broken into the Imperial Palace.

Qin Chen smiled and produced the Great Star Thought Seal: "To get in, I deliberately obtained an identity."

"Great Star Thought Seal?!"

Aunt Qing was shocked, unintentionally exclaiming: "Isn’t this Sun Juetian’s? What’s going on, how did you get it?"

Qin Chen smiled and said: "It was still in Sun Juetian’s hand yesterday, but from now on, it’s not."

"How did you persuade Sun Juetian to temporarily give you the Great Star Thought Seal to get into the Imperial Palace?" Aunt Qing asked in shock.

Qin Chen shook his head slightly: "I originally planned to replace him, but unfortunately, the process was unpleasant, so I killed him."

"You..."

Not only Aunt Qing, but Lin Songyun was also startled.

Previously, Lin Songyun only knew that Qin Chen was the president of the Great Star Telekinesis Master Association and wondered if Qin Chen had used some method.

But unexpectedly.

Qin Chen directly killed someone!

After leaving the Blood Continent Islands, Lin Songyun came to the Great Star Dynasty, so she was very familiar with some of its top figures.

Therefore.

Hearing this now, she felt particularly shocked.

"Child, are you sure you’re not joking with me?!" Aunt Qing questioned.

Although Sun Juetian’s death had a substantial impact, Qin Chen’s origins were unclear, and it just happened yesterday, so the news hadn’t reached the Imperial Palace yet.

Qin Chen said: "Of course, I wouldn’t joke about such things."

"So Aunt Qing, please believe us, we will certainly have a happy fate and ending, certainly."

Aunt Qing gave Qin Chen a deep look.

Undeniably.

Meeting Qin Chen again today indeed made her see him in a new light.

"Although this mansion is the Spirit God Clan’s stronghold, there are still Ji Zongwen’s agents, so you can’t stay long."

"If Ji Zongwen’s agents find out Song Yun has been missing too long, it will surely cause unnecessary troubles."

Aunt Qing’s feelings were complex. She hoped Qin Chen would leave, yet she hoped he would continue loving Lin Songyun.

Ultimately, she couldn’t resist the love she had for Lin Songyun in her heart; she hoped Lin Songyun could be happy.

Qin Chen said: "I understand, Aunt Qing. Let me spend a little more time with Song Yun, just a while, and then I’ll leave."

There are still seven days.

There are many things Qin Chen needs to prepare.

Words are not just words.

They need actual expression to prove them.

Aunt Qing nodded, then looked at Lin Songyun and said: "Song Yun, many people envy your status as a Saintess and more envy Ji Zongwen’s favor."

"But I know, these are not what you want to see. You might wish for more simplicity."

"From the moment you were born, you were destined for greatness; this is something you must face."

"I hope you can remain rational at crucial moments."

With these words, Aunt Qing secretly warned Lin Songyun that if things reached an irreversible point, perhaps compromise would be the best choice.

Lin Songyun nodded heavily.

Aunt Qing left.

Qin Chen held Lin Songyun’s hand and walked in places rarely visited in the mansion.

This brief time.

Both cherished it greatly.

Though they were together without speaking, neither felt uncomfortable; instead, the longing and reluctance in their hearts grew stronger.

After a while, Qin Chen stopped under a tree, turned to face Lin Songyun.

Lin Songyun also looked at Qin Chen without any hesitation.

Their eyes met, filled with tenderness like water, everything understood without words.

"Do you really dislike Ji Zongwen?"

Qin Chen suddenly spoke.

Lin Songyun nodded: "Yes, I really dislike him."

"Good, I understand."

Qin Chen smiled faintly, nodding gently.

Lin Songyun’s beautiful eyes paused: "What do you mean? Are you going to do something?"

Qin Chen smiled and rubbed Lin Songyun’s head: "Don’t worry, everything is under my control. I think things through for whatever I do."

"In seven days, wait for me."

Though Lin Songyun was puzzled, she finally didn’t say more, gently nodding.

Her fate, she would choose it herself.

"I’m leaving."

Qin Chen let go of Song Yun’s hand, Lin Songyun nodded, her gaze filled with reluctance.

Suddenly, Qin Chen turned around and kissed Lin Songyun on the lips, the two embraced again, separating after a while.

Leaving the Imperial Palace.

Seeing Qin Chen.

Wang Shishi and Qin Qi breathed a sigh of relief, relieved nothing went wrong, and hurried over.

Qin Chen turned back to glance at the vast palace, his eyes sharp.

In seven days, he would return!
