Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 258: The Moon Goddess and Shen Jueyang

While Taiyang was wallowing with the guilt on his heart but discovering that Yue Xuexia was the reincarnation of the Moon Goddess, the other man who didn’t know about this truth was now talking to a soul wisp of the very Moon Goddess they had owed their life.

Inside the chamber where the moon goddess soul wisp resides...

Sun God, Shen Jueyang, the former Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Sun Empire and his empress name, Yue Xuehua, the Moon Goddess were now staring at each other. Though it wasn’t the normal exchange of affection, the feelings between the two are more like indifference and guilt.

The one with indifferent eyes was the Goddess while the one with eyes full of guilt was the former immortal emperor. The sarcastic exchange between these two had caused a tense atmosphere between them.

The one who broke the stare was the Moon Goddess and leaned on her moon. After recalling how his original soul ended, all her affection for this man faded as she died. Even though the Star Emperor didn’t have the intention of killing her, it was still her choice in the end to kill herself. Maybe at that time her heart was still filled with memories and her affection towards Shen Jueyang. However, after she died nothing else was left behind just this fading wisp of her soul.

The Moon Goddess said, "I do not know why you came for me. Be reminded that I was no longer that love struck original version of me. Tell me what you want to say."

Shen Jueyang didn’t speak right away. Though he felt guilty for what happened to the Moon Goddess, the pride in his bones doesn’t allow him to bend his back. No matter how willing he is, he just couldn’t lower his head for someone. His mouth opens and closes but there are hardly any sounds or words coming out. It was even hard for him to apologize.

The Moon Goddess, as if anticipating this kind of attitude from his immortal emperor, didn’t get angry. After all, she was already used to the kind of attitude from this arrogant and ruthless man.

"If you have nothing you want to say, please leave. I do not want to see you," said Yue Xuehua.

Shen Jueyang took a deep breath and slightly lowered his head towards the Moon Goddess. These actions of his shocked the goddess so much that her phoenix shaped eyes widened into that of an almond.

"Sorry and thank you."

These four words took all the Immortal Emperor’s sincerity to the Moon Goddess. He is apologizing for his actions towards her before and showing his deepest gratitude for saving him. Even though these four words can be easily said by anyone but for a prideful god like Shen Jueyang, it took him everything to say these words. That’s why the Moon Goddess was shocked that she forgot to control her expression.

Who is Shen Jueyang? He used to be the youngest immortal emperor. The genius of their era and the most powerful god in the immortal world. It can be said that he had been born to become an emperor destined to stand above everyone. Thus, all of his actions are considered justified.

In the Immortal World where strength matters the most. Asking the powerful to apologize to the weak is impossible. For Shen Jueyang, who stood at the peak of the world. Apology was something that he never did before. He is a man that looks down on everything and his words are laws itself.

The Moon Goddess looked at him in disbelief and said, "Have you gone crazy?"

Her words sounded rude and it even made Shen Jueyang frown. However, since he had finished what he wanted to do, he bids farewell to the Moon Goddess and prepares to leave.

"I will not repeat it for the second time. That’s all I wanted to say to you. I shall take my leave," said Shen Jueyang.

The Moon Goddess who was in dazed for a moment suddenly stops the immortal emperor from leaving.

"Wait! There is something you must know. It’s about the Star Emperor and the Fairy Queen," said Yue Xuehua.

Rumbles~

The Immortal Emperor, Shen Jueyang, who was about to leave immediately halted his actions after hearing those two who had made him end like this. His aura spread abruptly, making the whole place shake. Even those who were outside were affected by it. The Moon Goddess was the calmest amidst this murderous intent from Shen Jueyang.

The Moon Goddess said, "Calm down. I hope you can remember that Xue’er is still in this palace. Continue if you want to bury her alive."

When the name of Yue Xuexia was mentioned the crimson-gold eyes of Shen Jueyang that was filled with hatred slowly cleared up. It was such an unexpected scene which made even the Moon Goddess flabbergasted. She couldn’t believe that there is someone in this world that can control this arrogant immortal emperor.

Even in the Immortal Sun Empire, no one was able to stop his anger until he calmed down himself and it was because of this that he was being treated as tyrant in the words of the people of their empire. After all, he is a destructive existence that everyone is afraid of. An emotionless powerful man who looks down on everything in this world except for himself.

The shaking of the area slowly weakened until it was completely gone.

The Moon Goddess grumbles, "Is he for real?"

Seeing Shen Jueyang truly calm down for real, the moon goddess looked at him like a ghost. She would have never expected a day when that cold hearted emperor would control his temper just because someone mentioned a girl’s name. It was even more effective than sedatives.

The Moon Goddess can see that despite the expressionless yet handsome face of Shen Jueyang, the depths of his eyes are cold and dark. He might look normal but his rage was silently being controlled.

Shen Jueyang asked, "What is it about those two? Also what happened to you after you blocked them for us?"

"Hm? Are you truly the Immortal Taiyang Emperor?" asked the Moon Goddess.

Shen Jueyang said, "I am. Answer my queries."

The Moon Goddess retorted, "So impatient!"

"As you know your sworn brother, the Star Emperor and your Imperial Concubine, the Fairy Queen, was the one that plotted against you. Not only did they poison you, making you unable to use your divinity and trying to kill you, they also planned to capture your soul."

In the last minute before the death of my original, I saw all the ruins opened up. You were betrayed by all your vassal clans except Taiyang and your harem except for your empress. They just wanted to eradicate your bloodline. Thus after you left your empire was completely ruined by them. Nothing is left anymore."

Shen Jueyang couldn’t help but grips his hand until it bleeds. His body is currently similar to that of a human. Droplets of crimson blood mixes with the soil under him.

The Moon Goddess said, "The one behind the Star Emperor and the Fairy Queen is the Primordial Race. The Olden Gods."

"I’ve spared them and just locked them up but they still plotted against me! That was my last mercy!" said Shen Jueyang.

The Moon Goddess said, "The Star Emperor is a descendant from the Primordial Race."

It was only when Shen Jueyang learned about the Star Emperor’s origin that he understood why he was betrayed. As for his vassals and harem, they might just want to have me replaced as the divine laws he created had been restricting them down.

Shen Jueyang mumbles, "I should exterminate them all in the next Cosmos War."

"I’m afraid that isn’t possible. Our cosmos had been locked by them," said the Moon Goddess.

Shen Jueyang’s face turned gloomy and said, "Are they crazy?! Where will they get their resources if there is no Cosmos War!?"

"By destroying lower realm worlds after extracting all the resources in it," answered Yue Xuexia.

Her words meant that the Immortal World was exploiting weaker worlds until it became a barren one and got destroyed. If this continues their Cosmos would most likely die in the future and no new life will ever be born.

When Shen Jueyang was still the Immortal Emperor, his attendance to the Cosmos War was always good. The reason the Immortal Realm’s heaven and earth qi is powerful was because he had enhanced it with the cosmos treasures he won in that war. That is also why he was able to become the youngest immortal emperor was because of his achievements from the cosmos war.

Shen Jueyang said, "Are you saying that the immortals from the immortal world didn’t even send one fighter during the cosmos war? Are they crazy?"

"Yea~ My star reading abilities only showed me these scenes. After I fell and woke up in this star, I can no longer use that ability. As the barrier prevents things that will expose this Exiled Star. After all, Without the barrier around this planet, the abundant resource my main soul pour in this place will be coveted," The Moon Goddess knows.

All of the sudden, the soul of the Moon Goddess flickers and starts to slowly fade. Shen Jueyang was shocked and wanted to help her. However, it is impossible for a mere wisp of soul that lost most of its divinity to continue existing.

Shen Jueyang said, "Are you... going to disappear?"

"Yes. After all, I have completed my duties," said the Moon Goddess. "Take good care of Xue’er for me."

"I will. I promise," said Shen Jueyang.

A rare smile appeared on the Moon Goddess face before she completely disappeared. Shen Jueyang had never seen his moon empress smile after entering his empire. He would ignore her and felt that she was annoying. Only at this moment did he look at the Moon Goddess without any prejudice.

He couldn’t help but mumbles, "She looks so much like Xue’er when smiling."
