Supreme Alchemist-Chapter 1475 - 1465: Past Events of That Year (Five)_1

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained. How will you know there’s no chance if you don’t try?"

Long Yan gave a slight smile.

For Bai Ling, he had to return, regardless of the difficulties, even if there was only a sliver of chance, he would not miss it.

"Senior, what is the Star Destiny Soul Lamp?"

The Star Destiny Soul Lamp must not be simple.

"The Star Destiny Soul Lamp is an artifact and the foundation of the Huashen Sect. The place where you recovered from your injuries is called the Star Destiny Soul Pond, and the Star Destiny Soul Lamp lies dormant in its depths," Nalan Jie explained without holding anything back.

"You might have guessed, my Nalan Family has a profound connection with the Star Destiny Soul Lamp..."

Right after, Nalan Jie also gave a brief introduction about the Star Destiny Soul Lamp to Long Yan.

He wasn’t afraid of Long Yan knowing about the Star Destiny Soul Lamp as he allowed Long Yan to recover from his injuries in the Star Destiny Soul Pond.

From Nalan Jie’s introduction, Long Yan learned that the Star Destiny Soul Lamp was not as simple as an artifact. The fate of the Nalan Family was tied to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp, and the Nalan Family’s Bloodline Power was related to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

Even within the Huashen Sect, not all the core characters necessarily knew about the Star Destiny Soul Lamp. It was a secret unknown to many in the sect.

"Senior, may I presume to ask, is the God-devouring Organization related to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp?"

Long Yan had a strong hunch that the God-devouring Organization was definitely related to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

The God-devouring Organization targeted only the Huashen Sect and was a hidden danger for them. It attacked Nalan Feng, Yan Xiao, and Xue Jia, but Yan Chixiao was spared, as was Fall Hill Road. Normally, this shouldn’t have happened.

Based on this point alone, the God-devouring Organization should have a significant connection with the Huashen Sect, most likely relating to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

"Sigh..."

Nalan Jie heaved a sigh, then nodded, "You’re absolutely correct. The Star Destiny Soul Lamp indeed has a great connection with the God-devouring Organization. Let me tell you a story."

This was clearly a past Nalan Jie was reluctant to mention.

"If Senior is willing to share, I am all ears," Long Yan responded, prepared to listen attentively.

Without a doubt, the story Nalan Jie was going to tell would be an interesting one.

After pondering for a moment, a nostalgic look appeared in Nalan Jie’s eyes, and then he began.

Long ago, an ancestor of the Nalan Family and one from the Luo Family were brothers, bonded by fate. They obtained the Star Destiny Soul Lamp by a serendipitous twist of fate. With the help of the Star Destiny Soul Lamp, both of them quickly became geniuses and eventually gained a kind of power from the lamp, which turned into their Bloodline Power.

Later, something happened, and the ancestors of both the Nalan Family and the Luo Family disappeared at the same time. The Star Destiny Soul Lamp also fell into slumber then. Both the ancestors left instructions for their descendants to guard the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

From then on, the Nalan Family and the Luo Family jointly guarded the Star Destiny Soul Lamp, treasuring it as a sacred object. Both families remained friendly for generations, maintaining a foothold on the Sealed Gods Ancient Road.

Thirty years ago, Nalan Jie was the genius and the successor of the Nalan Family. The Luo Family also had a pair of brilliant siblings, Luo Bingyue and Luo Bingxue. To consolidate the relationship between the two families, they arranged a marriage between Nalan Jie and Luo Bingyue.

This match seemed perfect, with Luo Bingyue prepared to marry into the Nalan Family. However, in the end, an unexpected change occurred.

Nalan Jie was actually in love with Luo Bingxue, Luo Bingyue’s younger sister. During an outing, they fell in love and started a relationship.

By the time Nalan Jie brought Luo Bingxue back to the Nalan Family, Luo Bingxue was already pregnant. The secret was revealed, and although the Luo Family was furious, they eventually accepted the matter and called off the engagement between Nalan Jie and Luo Bingyue.

While the Luo Family accepted it, Luo Bingyue harbored resentment. From that point on, she viewed Nalan Jie and Luo Bingxue as her enemies, seeking every opportunity to seek revenge. Due to their guilt, Nalan Jie and Luo Bingxue chose to endure.

They thought that with time, Luo Bingyue’s heartsickness would gradually fade. But after three years, a dramatic change occurred.

Somehow, news of the Star Destiny Soul Lamp was leaked, and a mysterious force suddenly attacked both the Luo Family and the Nalan Family, causing widespread destruction overnight. In the end, the Luo Family sacrificed themselves to protect the Nalan Family, allowing the core members of the Nalan Family to escape with the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

Nalan Jie managed to escape with his wife and children, along with some core members of the Nalan Family, but unfortunately, the Luo Family was wiped out. McConnell luckily was not at Luo Family at the time, and hence managed to survive.

After the Nalan Family escaped, the mysterious forces never appeared again. To guard the Star Destiny Soul Lamp, Nalan Jie established the Huashen Sect, and together with other strong members of the Nalan Family, sealed the Star Destiny Soul Lamp in the Star Destiny Soul Pond.

Soon afterward, Luo Bingyue returned and learned that the Luo Family had been exterminated. In her rage, she invaded the Huashen Sect but was ultimately suppressed by Nalan Jie himself. Despite Nalan Jie and Luo Bingxue’s explanations, Luo Bingyue insisted that the Luo Family was destroyed due to the Nalan Family’s conspiracy in an effort to monopolize the Star Destiny Soul Lamp.

With no other choice, Nalan Jie released Luo Bingyue. From that point on, Luo Bingyue established the God-devouring Organization, which targeted the Huashen Sect relentlessly.

Due to this, Luo Bingxue eventually died of depression. On her deathbed, she asked Nalan Jie to take care of Luo Bingyue, no matter what.

Feeling guilty and overwhelmed by Luo Bingxue’s dying wish, Nalan Jie has been tolerating the God-devouring Organization, never allowing the Huashen Sect to act against them.

The God-devouring Organization grew stronger as a result, accepting all traitors from the Huashen Sect unconditionally. After nearly twenty years of evolution, it has formed the current situation.

After listening to Nalan Jie’s story, Long Yan could only give a wry smile. On one hand, he admired Nalan Jie’s strength for building a massive Huashen Sect on the Sealed Gods Ancient Road in just 20 years. On the other hand, he also sighed at Nalan Jie’s complicated love story.

He was engaged to the elder sister but ended up securing the younger sister’s heart. Sigh, could there be anything more helpless than this?

However, upon hearing Nalan Jie’s account, Long Yan understood the awkward situation between the Huashen Sect and the God-devouring Organization.

In the end, the conflict between the Huashen Sect and the God-devouring Organization arose because of Nalan Jie and Luo Bingyue. The real reason is that Luo Bingyue has been blinded by hatred.

"Senior, if I’m not wrong, the reason the God-devouring Organization targeted Nalan Feng is because Nalan Feng is the one who can awaken the Star Destiny Soul Lamp," Long Yan shared his conjecture. Even though it was just a guess, he seemed sure.

If they were just looking for a hostage to threaten the Huashen Sect, the God-devouring Organization had plenty of opportunities. However, this time they made a significant move against Nalan Feng, and it certainly wasn’t something simple.

The Nalan Family and the Luo Family were both connected to the Star Destiny Soul Lamp. Luo Bingyue would definitely want to seize the Star Destiny Soul Lamp from the Nalan Family, and Nalan Feng was the key.
