Chapter 3609 Mo Chen’s Death
Xuanyuan Mo Ze pushed his lips together, his heart feeling as if it had been struck by a heavy object, creating ripples of shock. He had never thought that Mo Chen would go to such lengths for them, essentially trading his life for a sliver of hope for their survival.
Mo Chen’s body gradually became transparent, fading bit by bit, as his holy power dispersed into radiant light. Despite this, his expression remained gentle and serene. A gentle smile like moonlight bloomed on his banished immortal-like visage.
His eyes were filled with affection, reluctance, and regret as he glanced towards Feng Jiu. The love, nostalgia, and deep affection that had always been hidden deep in his heart were finally revealed without reservation at this moment when his life was about to end.
That glance, which seemed to last for a thousand years, went straight into Feng Jiu’s heart.
She stared at him, her eyes wide with disbelief! That familiar look, so deeply etched in her memory, that gaze that seemed to come from a thousand years ago, flashed before her eyes once again…
“This, this can’t be…”
She murmured. Her mind was a whirlwind of shock, disbelief, and incredulity. As she watched Mo Chen’s life drain away, her mind went blank, and a single tear silently slid down her cheek. Her lips moved, and an almost inaudible word escaped her lips.
“Chen…”
Mo Chen used up all of his true energy and holy power, and his body gradually dissipated into specks of holy light. His gaze never left Feng Jiu. When he saw that tear and heard her barely audible word, his eyes softened, and he vanished into the air, his last emotion smile.

She recognized him; she remembered him. Even after a lifetime apart, she still knew who he was.
Despite meeting each other in a past life, he and she were never meant to be together. In this life, his destiny was intertwined with hers. Born for her, dying for her, he had no regrets as long as she was happy and alive.
He wished he could continue to watch over her, to see her raise a family, to see her happy and carefree. But he couldn’t stay by her side forever, not even watching her from afar.
“No! No…”
A sorrowful voice, filled with unconcealable pain, rang out. Feng Jiu lay on Lao Bai’s back, her hands clenched into fists. With her sorrowful scream, the Blue Lotus’ life force burst from her body, like a meteor, and shot towards the place where Mo Chen had disappeared.
At that moment, among the specks of Holy Light, a faint golden glow appeared from where Mo Chen had vanished and floated towards Feng Jiu.
“Golden Lotus Seed…”
Feng Jiu’s eyes welled up with tears as her blurry vision focused on the golden lotus seed glowing before her. This was the same seed she had once given to Mo Chen.
She slowly opened her hand and saw the golden lotus seed land in her palm…
