Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness

Chapter 25 - Another Truth Revealed, Yu Ling’er Breaks Down in Tears

“You deserve to die—!!! You killed my parents, my senior brothers, and now you’ve killed Senior Brother Qin—!!! And you led these countless demons to attack Taihua Mountain. Just because I don’t like you, you committed such atrocious acts. Very well, very well—!! Today, if I don’t kill you, I, Yu Ling’er, will take my own life—!!!” As she spoke, immortal Qi surged around her.

In the decades they hadn’t seen each other, she had actually achieved the immortal body. “Your cultivation has progressed so quickly…” Ye Xuan was surprised to see Yu Ling’er radiating immortal Qi.

“All these years, I’ve thought of nothing but taking revenge on you,” Yu Ling’er said. “Ye Xuan, you’ve committed countless evils. Today, you must die—!!!”

“Heh, let’s see what you’ve learned over the years. After all, I love you so much… If you perform well, maybe I’ll love you even more,” Ye Xuan sneered. “I might even let you kill me.”

“Despicable wretch, die—!!!” Yu Ling’er moved instantly, her immortal sword shining brightly as she unleashed thousands of sword blossoms.

Taihua Sword Technique consisted of Qi Sword and Physical Sword. Qi Sword focused on using Qi to form swords and unleash sword Qi, while Physical Sword involved using a physical sword to enhance the power of spells with one’s own strength, making it more formidable.

Generally, disciples with lesser cultivation would choose to focus on either Qi Sword or Physical Sword. But those with cultivation as strong as immortals could freely switch between both methods.

Once Yu Ling’er got close, Ye Xuan immediately felt her immense pressure. However, he remained calm, merely sparring back and forth with her. His mind wandered back to when he and Yu Ling’er first met, to the days when they practiced swordsmanship together. Those were the happiest days of his life, unforgettable memories that were all too brief. If only he could relive that time and etch those feelings into his heart forever.

Watching Ye Xuan reminiscing about the good old days in the scene, Yu Ling’er outside the scene was already in tears. Indeed, those days were so happy. But even though she was given another chance by fate, she wanted to kill him…

Yu Ling’er felt overwhelmed by her immense sins. She had let down true love. But everything was about to end. Ye Xuan from her past life had turned into a demon; he had to die. She would release him early from his torment… In this life, she would do everything to make amends.

The battle between Yu Ling’er and Ye Xuan escalated into its most intense phase from the start. For both of them, it was a fight to the death with no reservations. Eventually, at a certain moment, Ye Xuan’s movements hesitated, as if caught off-guard, and Yu Ling’er stabbed him in the heart.

“Ye Xuan, good and evil will eventually be repaid. You, who are heartless and mad, dying by my hand today is your retribution—!!!” Yu Ling’er angrily said to Ye Xuan.

However, at this moment, Ye Xuan just quietly looked at her, a content smile on his face. This smile appeared so strange in Yu Ling’er’s eyes, almost chilling. It was a smile that shouldn’t be on Ye Xuan’s face, making Yu Ling’er feel uneasy. “Damn it, you wretch, you actually let her kill you on purpose—!!!”

At this moment, the inner demon furiously said to Ye Xuan: “Your body, a treasure I painstakingly found, how dare you destroy it so recklessly—!!!” Ye Xuan ignored the inner demon’s words, and neither Yu Ling’er nor the people around could hear them.

However, watching from outside the scene, Yu Ling’er’s eyes widened in shock. What?! Ye Xuan wasn’t completely controlled by the inner demon; he intentionally let himself be killed by her?!! How is that possible—!!! If he wasn’t under the inner demon’s control, then why did he lead the demons to attack the mountain?!! Could it be that he did this terrible deed for her sake? It must be so… At this moment, Yu Ling’er felt even more indebted to Ye Xuan.

The scene continued. Yu Ling’er, having killed Ye Xuan, was filled with excitement. As Ye Xuan’s gaze gradually faded, Yu Ling’er felt deeply moved. “Father, mother… Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother… Senior Brother Qin, I’ve avenged you… You can rest in peace now in heaven…”

“Rest? Haha…” Watching this scene, Yu Ling’er felt she deserved a slap. If her parents and senior brothers really had spirits in heaven, they might not be able to resist slapping her. Perhaps only Yu Shou, that beastly person, would clap for joy. She killed the person who had been true to her heart. In the past life, she had done such a laughable thing.

What follows next must be her rebirth. Everything is gone…

In the scene, the inner demon, seeing Ye Xuan dead, turned into a cloud of demonic energy, attempting to quietly escape Taihua Mountain. However, at that moment, a zither sound suddenly resonated.

Countless sword Qi’s materialized from the sky, trapping the fleeing inner demon. This was the arrival of the head of Taihua, Daoist Qin Zhenren, and the elders. They stood majestically in the sky, a sight befitting immortal beings.

Daoist Qin Zhenren gently stroked her zither, and her music trapped all the demons. The chaotic scene was instantly subdued.

“Great, the head has arrived—!!!”

“None of these demons can escape—!!!” “Yes, hahaha—!!!” Daoist Qin Zhenren frowned: “As expected, demons attacked the mountain. Fortunately, someone tipped us off.”

“But who was the informant?” Another elder flicked his finger, and countless Qi swords shot down from the sky, binding the resisting demons. They would never know that Ye Xuan himself was the one who tipped them off.

“Damn it, Ye Xuan, you wretch, you tricked me—!!!” The trapped inner demon suddenly shouted in frustration: “It must have been you… You informed Qin in advance. I can’t believe I, a mighty inner demon, was outwitted by a mere human—!!!”

“Ye Xuan?” Daoqin Zhenren recalled a disciple who joined the sect, first in achievements but without a spiritual root. Later, he killed his masters, fellow disciples, and fled the mountain. His gaze fell on Ye Xuan, pierced by Yu Ling’er’s sword: “He was the informant?”

“So that’s how it is… This kid, to deal with the inner demon, even sacrificed his own life. If the inner demon wasn’t fully possessed and wounded by someone, I wouldn’t have been able to capture it easily. It seems there was more to his escape from the mountain.”

“Unfortunately… he’s probably dead.” Another elder sighed.

Outside the scene, Yu Ling’er felt dizzy. She had guessed wrong again… Ye Xuan wasn’t controlled by the inner demon; he led the demons to the mountain to combat the inner demon.

He had secretly informed the head of the sect, Daoist Qin Zhenren, in advance. No wonder he only killed Yu Shou and was careful not to seriously harm anyone else, and the demons he led to the mountain were quickly subdued.

It was as if Taihua Mountain was already prepared. This means she misunderstood Ye Xuan again, and she killed him just as the truth was about to be revealed, at the moment closest to dawn?!! Oh heavens—!!! Yu Ling’er, you deserve to die—!!! Even if you die a thousand times, you can never make up for the harm you’ve caused Ye Xuan—!!! At this moment, tears rolled down Yu Ling’er’s cheeks once more.
