The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 840
Chapter 840: Totally Over
Under the glow of the colored glaze, the man’s smile could easily captivate the hearts of all ladies.
However, iciness gradually spread across his eyes.
Phoenix looked at him and pushed his hand away from her. She agreed in the affirmative, then she thought for a moment before saying, “I suppose you don’t like people who are clingy. In fact, neither do I, so I won’t act like one. Since we’ve cleared our misunderstanding, I will make a move first.”
Upon hearing this, everyone finally realized that Phoenix was not here to reunite with the Emperor. Instead, she was here to obtain the mythical water.
As the Emperor maintained his devilish smile, he then leaned forward all of a sudden. His thin lips were close to her ear, speaking in a cold and merciless manner, “Are you that worried about that Bodhi tree? Will it die if you go back a little later? You’re right; both of us don’t like people who are clingy.”
After the man finished his words, he lifted up his hand and he hurled the wine cup to the floor. Along with a crack, he turned and left!
The immortal caught up with his master. The cold wind hit his body, making his fingers a little cold.
Everyone present was shocked to see the Emperor in such a state.
Even the Crown Prince could not help but narrow his dark eyebrows.
Due to unknown reasons, that person’s malicious aura seemed to grow stronger. This was not good news for Tian Dao.
No one could predict if he would revert to who he once was where he would end the lives of people of whom he found not pleasing to the eye.
Perhaps the man had been listed in the celestial class for too long as he was present at the very beginning of Tian Dao.
Everyone had probably forgotten that this elegant and impeccable man was in fact even more merciless and ruthless than others.
If he was unpleasant, even the Crown Prince could not predict what he would do.
“Emperor…” The immortal treading on the man’s heel raised his hand in hesitation, “Since Lord Phoenix already obtained mythical water by herself, what should we do with this bottle of mythical water?”
The man was stunned for a moment. His voice became hoarse, “Throw it away.”
“Yes.” The immortal’s voice lowered down, gradually getting softer, “How about this mirror?”
The man did not say anything.
The immortal had the initiative to throw it away, but he was afraid that the Emperor would go mad. Everyone was well aware of that, so all of them in the temple were extra meticulous these few days.
They could not understand the current thoughts of the Emperor anymore.
The man turned around and fixed his gaze on the magical mirror.
A scene emerged from the smooth surface. She was scribbling on the manual with her head lowered while he embraced her from behind with his fingers grasping her hand.
She was never too obedient as she would indolently push him away after being in his arms for too long, instructing him to prepare vegetarian meals.
Who on earth would dare to order him? Only Phoenix could.
Ever since she tried eating meat, her appetite was not as good as before.
Hence, he had to supervise her in order to make sure she ate more.
Sometimes she would get annoyed. It was not like both of them never quarreled before – after all, they were both stubborn and would not surrender easily.
However, no matter how intense their fights were, in the end, they would laugh and reconcile with each other.
All in all, his Phoenix was still very obedient in nature.
Apart from disliked being tied up, if he were to go somewhere, she would tag along.
The Emperor believed that she could not survive without him.
Alas, no one could have ever imagined that he would be dumped by someone one day.
As she threw the magical mirror toward him, his heart sank with it. When he asked for proper reasoning, she let out a smile, saying, “Once a game loses its pleasure, there is no point in continuing it anymore. You have been through many wars. You should have understood that things become boring as time goes by.”
He felt as if he was beaten on the head by a stick as he looked at Phoenix who maintained a placid demeanor.
This proud yet indifferent person really wanted to leave him.
However, he could not hold onto her.
He even had no idea on how to make her stay.
He could only hug her tight subconsciously and pressed on her shoulders forcefully, his crazy actions appeared as though he wanted to merge both of them into one.
If only he could control himself, if only his temper was better, maybe he would not hurt her…
Nevertheless, he could not control his temper. In her opinion, is their relationship merely a game?
She did not speak, quietly allowing him to hug her as if nothing had happened. When she closed her eyes, she looked so well-behaved, like an obedient child.
However, he knew very clearly that she was not a child, that she had her own thoughts and that they were…totally over.
An invisible hand seemed to be squeezing and clenching his heart tightly into a crumple. It was so twisted that he found it hard to breathe. It was so painful that he felt that he was on the verge of dying from suffocation. It was rather a once in a lifetime opportunity getting to experience it.
However, on that day, he experienced it countless times.
His emotions went on a roller coaster ride, soaring high and then plummeting down. When everything had calmed down, all that was left was the emptiness in his heart.
She was so exhausted that she just slept, but he did not close his eyes throughout the night.
He hated her for saying those words effortlessly, hence he kept on bringing someone to Buddhism.
He was like an immature child who was throwing a tantrum and trying to seek people’s attention.
He could clearly sense her displeasure and indifference.
Upon listening to the conversations from the surroundings, he had really thought that she came to reconcile with him. He could not wipe off the smile on his face. This was the best news he had ever received during this period of time.
He had waited for quite some time, but she did not speak. Instead, she stood up to leave.
Instinctively, he felt that he needed to say something to make her stay.
Yes, he must make her stay.
It did not matter if he had to set aside his long-standing pride. He asserted in front of the crowd, “Let’s get back together.”
Perhaps he was overconfident in himself.
He assumed that she would share the same feelings as him, that she regretted the events that had happened on that day.
In fact, when he heard the Crown Prince calling out ‘mythical water’ and addressing the annoying name, he finally understood that she was not here to reconcile nor was she here for him. Instead, she was here for that Bodhi tree.
At that moment, his emotions were far from the calm demeanor that he portrayed.
It was only around 10 days. They had only broken up for around 10 days.
She had already forgotten all about him and directed all her attention toward the Bodhi tree.
No matter how much noise he made, she did not show any signs of being unaccustomed.
He interrogated her with much disbelief, but all he got was the response ‘You and I dislike people who are clingy.”
The Emperor suddenly laughed, his smile rather twisted.
Clingy?
It seemed like she really treated this as a game, being together with him only to seek excitement.
Otherwise, how was she able to remove herself from this relationship so quickly?
Those who said that he was heartless should really take a look at Phoenix.
Compared to her calmness, he as an experienced game player failed to qualify at all.
He initially thought that she would understand his feelings even if he did not express it out loud.
That was why he never thought of expressing his love.
Ha. Since she thought of this as a game, then it was better to end this. Being the Emperor, he could win anyone’s heart as he pleased…
