Chapter 749: Chapter 709: Turning Face and Denying Debt, Ceasefire (1 more update)

Watching the cards being thrown into the dark box one by one, everyone’s heart unexpectedly began to race.

"Once these items are put in, it’s hard to guarantee that someone won’t tamper with them through some special method," someone expressed their doubt.

Others also thought the same upon hearing that, and turned their eyes to Chloe Stephens.

"None of us have touched the box, and if anyone were to do so, they would be discovered by the rest," Chloe hooked her thin lips, "so, do you all lack confidence in your own keen senses?"

Since Chloe had said that, who would admit their weakness?

All the cards entered the box.

Then, two people with the weakest abilities were chosen to take out the cards.

From the initial negative cards to the final affirmative ones, there were two more cards in the lead.

When they saw the number of cards, some people’s faces darkened.

"It doesn’t count."

The Shadow Domain was the first to deny the result.

Chloe knew this would happen: "If it doesn’t count, does anyone have another solution? Or, why not just have another fight? If you die, it’ll be over once and for all."

In fact, Chloe didn’t mind using this method to resolve the matter.

Austin Godfrey stopped her when she was getting more confrontational: "As I said, if you keep fighting in cycles like this, everyone will have to start over. Chloe, I don’t think you want to experience that loneliness, confusion, and searching again."

Those final words successfully convinced Chloe to back down.

Chloe really didn’t want to experience that feeling again.

Len Hawthorne turned his gaze and looked steadily at her.

His eyes were full of heartache.

Chloe pursed her lips and turned her face away.

She didn’t want him to feel guilty.

Compared to her, he probably experienced quite a bit of pain before being reincarnated into that family and then meeting her.

They didn’t have the courage to ask each other what they had gone through all these years.

"Divine Light Realm, do you not acknowledge this result either?" As Len’s protector, Angelina stepped forward to speak for him.

The Divine Light Realm was actually thinking of not acknowledging the result just like the Shadow Domain, but they couldn’t bring themselves to do it.

Seeing the reaction of these people, the people from the Shadow Domain showed disdain.

"If you don’t want to admit it, just admit it. Is it that hard to honestly acknowledge your own thoughts? A bunch of hypocrites." The people of the Shadow Domain couldn’t stand it any longer and complained a few words.

"Well, the Divine Light Realm needs to save face."

"At least we in the Shadow Domain are honest."

"The people of the Shadow Domain are fickle, what’s there to be proud of?" The people of the Divine Light Realm couldn’t stand it either and snapped back.

"Fickle? When have we ever been fickle? We are just questioning the feasibility of this method. We suspect they tampered with it. Is that wrong? I don’t believe you don’t have such thoughts."

"You have thoughts, just say it. Hiding and letting us in the Shadow Domain take the lead, hypocrites!"

"You people from the Shadow Domain are simply..." The Divine Light Realm’s people gritted their teeth but didn’t know how to rebut.

"Enough!" A Divine Light Realm Elder shouted angrily, and everyone shut up.

The Elder looked at Len Hawthorne: "King White, regardless of whether you have tampered with it or not, the actions you have taken cannot be erased with just a few cards."

This was a direct refusal to honor the agreement.

Chloe sneered sarcastically: "Truly the Divine Light Realm – you’re quick to deny any responsibility when it’s not in your favor. You act as if everything is our fault, as if we’ve actually tampered with it. This is why I despise the Divine Light Realm – hypocrites to the extreme!"

Chloe’s gaze was filled with strong sarcasm.

The Elder of the Divine Light Realm’s face darkened, but he couldn’t refute Chloe’s words.

That’s because they were indeed denying responsibility right now.

"Before this, none of you opposed the plan. As soon as the result is out, you’re quick to turn against it. It’s nothing different from the behavior of worldly shameless people."

The cold voice rang out, as if a heavy slap landed on their faces.

Len Hawthorne slightly narrowed his phoenix eyes, and the overwhelming aura made it difficult for people to breathe.

"If you don’t accept it, you can stand out now and fight again."

Len knew that they were just trying to find another excuse to deny him and Chloe.

The so-called voting was just a suitable step.

If the step was not easy to follow, they would not recognize the result.

Even if the number of votes was not in favor of him and Chloe, they would turn against them on the spot.

"Today, we can cease fighting."

An elder from the Divine Light Realm stepped forward and suddenly made such a decision.

Ceasefire?

Once the Divine Light Realm stopped, the Shadow Domain would have to stop as well.

People from the Shadow Domain hadn’t expected the Divine Light Realm to suddenly pull such a stunt. Were they trying to protect Len Hawthorne?

Realizing this possibility, the eyes of people from the Shadow Domain changed when they looked at the Divine Light Realm.

What a group of hypocritical deities!

No matter how people from the Shadow Domain viewed the Divine Light Realm, they had already stated their position, which meant that they would not take action for the time being.

What kind of conspiracy was the Divine Light Realm hiding behind their backs?

It wasn’t strange for people from the Shadow Domain to overthink, as it was truly too weird.

They had been fighting for so long, with each clash being extremely violent, but now suddenly declared a ceasefire. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed bizarre.

Chloe didn’t care how they thought. A temporary ceasefire would suffice.

"What about you? How do you think we should handle this situation?" Chloe turned her head and asked Len.

Len stood by her side, stretched his arm out, and pulled her head into his embrace.

Touching Len’s cool and clean presence, Chloe’s body stiffened slightly before relaxing.

"Why are you suddenly hugging me?"

Didn’t she notice the Shadow Domain and Divine Light Realm people were glaring daggers at them?

This was like a slap in the face in front of them.

"I’m sorry."

"What are you sorry for... It’s me who should be sorry."

"I couldn’t protect you," Len’s voice was hoarse, "I’m sorry, it will never happen again."

So, Len harbored murderous intentions towards everyone in the Divine Light Realm.

Even at the risk of an endless cycle, he wanted to try to destroy those who hindered them. Perhaps because the Divine Light Realm sensed Len’s thoughts, they suddenly announced a ceasefire.

Chloe’s heart was filled with complexity, clutching his black shirt, burying her head into his chest: "I didn’t keep my promise either, I lied to you."

After leaving, she quickly reincarnated into an initial dynasty and had been searching ever since. Ultimately, she lost herself, and one hundred years ago, she chose to be reborn here.

"It’s in the past, everything is in the past. From now on, there will be no more chances like this." Len didn’t know if it was the fear of losing or the joy of regaining, but he held her even tighter, "No matter how long, I will always wait for you."

Chloe smiled slightly, "Even if you have to curse yourself?"

Facing her teasing words, Len let go of her and lowered his head to meet her radiant eyes: "Yes, even if I have to curse myself, I will find you. Even after tens of thousands of years, 100 million years, we will meet. No matter what form or identity, once we meet, we will be attracted to each other."

Chloe thought back to the first time she saw him, finding it hard to contain her amusement, "I didn’t fall in love with you at first sight back then..."

"It doesn’t matter, as long as you can’t take your eyes off me, it’s good enough."

"..."

Had his face not been so calm, and had he not had such refined features when saying those words, she would have suspected he was going off the rails.
