Chapter 814: Chapter 388: The President’s Secret, The Origin of Everything (Part 3)
So people think his way of life is tough, and he’s being cruel to himself.
In reality, he doesn’t think so.
Because there are people who have it tougher than him.
For four hundred years, the President probably has never lived a day for himself.
What right does he have to complain?
Perhaps this is the real reason why Senior Ji has never wanted to reveal her identity until now.
The President is the President.
Ji Zhou is Ji Zhou.
She removed her mask to get along with him.
Even if Gu Jianlin guessed her true identity, he didn’t want to expose it.
"I don’t know what the future holds for her and , but I promise you."
Gu Jianlin said seriously, "I will protect her at all costs. Whoever wants to harm her, I will kill them. I will ensure she takes that position, inheriting the legacy of the President. If possible, after everything is over, I hope she can find a new successor and live her own life."
His expression was very solemn: "Just like you said, do whatever you want."
For a long mont.
Ji Zhou unexpectedly smiled for the first ti ever.
It wasn’t a cold smile, but a very gentle one, as if ice lting in a river, sunlight thawing snow.
"The enemies you have to face are not that simple."
A playful curve lifted the corner of her lips as she said, "The President has at most three months left. The entire Order World is restless, and so people can’t hold back anymore."
Gu Jianlin was startled.
Turmoil within the Ether Association will definitely erupt after the President’s death.
This is inevitable.
He just didn’t expect it to be this soon!
"Didn’t I bring back the Eternal Bone?"
He said in surprise.
"Silly child."
Ji Zhou held his hand and smiled, "Without your Eternal Bone, the President would already be dead."
Gu Jianlin’s pupils suddenly contracted.
It seems that sothing else happened back in the Sea of Eternal Life.
Even soone as strong as Skylark was seriously injured and lost mory.
The President was even teetering on the brink of life and death.
"Now I’m going to tell you a secret, a secret that very few people know."
Ji Zhou actually took out a piece of candy from her pocket and offered it to his lips.
Gu Jianlin was puzzled; this piece of candy was actually the very common rock candy.
Nowadays, no one eats it anymore; it’s usually used in cooking.
But in the sunlight, this piece of rock candy was so crystal-clear, exuding strands of light.
"Four hundred years ago, I grew up in a temple. At that ti, there was chaos, with Natural Disasters and Man-made Calamities occurring continuously, starving many people. In the temple, an old monk took us orphans in and taught us the way of cultivation. When we were naughty, he would give each of us a piece of candy."
Ji Zhou said lightly, "Before listening to a lecture, have a piece of candy, and the children would settle down."
Gu Jianlin said suspiciously, "Is this a tradition?"
Ji Zhou made a sound of agreent, her smile tinged with a faint trace of nostalgia: "Eating this piece of candy, I will regard you as my child, and so secrets can then be quietly shared with you."
Gu Jianlin took the rock candy and put it in his mouth, the sweetness spreading, tasting quite good.
Ji Zhou watched him, only relaxing after confirming the rock candy had dissolved in his mouth.
"Now I will tell you how The Order of the Hidden was born."
She, like a grandmother ready to tell stories to the children at ho, gazed softly at the sunlight outside the window and said, "Including how the Ether Association’s legacy ca to be, the splits and turmoil over two centuries, the real reason why Qing and Chi rebelled, it all stems from ... the Ancient God Clan, who were never invaders of Earth."
