Chapter 19 - He Fell Into Demonhood for Me?
Thinking this, Ye Xuan sent out the new script, and Yu Ling’er continued watching seamlessly…
“Damn it, go to hell—!!!” Ye Xuan was furious. He had thought he was the only one who knew how shameless and despicable Yu Shou was. But now, Yu Shou had proven to be even more vile than he had thought. Such words, whether true or false, should never be spoken.
Just to anger him, Yu Shou had dared to utter such shameless words. Without hesitation, Ye Xuan raised his fist to strike Yu Shou. However, how could he possibly hit his opponent?
“What are you doing, Junior Brother Ye Xuan?” Yu Shou feigned innocence as he saw Ye Xuan attacking him.
“Stop it, you’re disgracing Qingyan Peak—!!!” A stream of spiritual light flew over, binding Ye Xuan’s movements. It was Elder Qingyan who had intervened.
Yu Ling’er, with a cold expression, shielded Yu Xuan and looked at Ye Xuan: “Ye Xuan, what are you doing? Do you think I’ll like you for this? This only makes me despise you!!”
“Junior Brother, stop this, apologize to Senior Brother Yu Shou.”
“Yes, we know you like your junior sister, but love can’t be forced—” The eldest and second senior brothers were persuading Ye Xuan. Everyone was accusing Ye Xuan of wrongdoing, only Yu Shou was hiding behind everyone, sneering at Ye Xuan.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was powerless against everyone shielding Yu Shou. He should have understood that he could never get the better of Yu Shou. Yet, he was still uncontrollably furious. How could his senior sister marry such a man?
The cold looks from everyone felt like ice spikes piercing Ye Xuan. But he was already numb, feeling no pain, his hands falling limply to his sides. No one would believe his words, nobody… And those insulting words about his senior sister, he couldn’t bring himself to speak them. Once again, he became a pawn in Yu Shou’s game. Everyone thought it was his fault.
“There must be some misunderstanding here, no need to apologize… Let’s not disturb the harmony of Qingyan Peak because of me…” Yu Shou was advising everyone, looking every bit the gentleman.
Watching this, Yu Ling’er only felt great admiration for him. Compared to such a noble gentleman as her senior brother, Junior Brother Yu Xuan was indeed unworthy. She had once had a slight liking for her junior brother, but now she thought she must have been too naive back then.
“No—!!!” At this moment, Yu Ling’er cried out in anguish for Ye Xuan. She could fully imagine the despair Ye Xuan must have experienced then. The woman he loved was deceived by a scoundrel, yet she failed to understand him.
Her master, her senior brothers, and she herself were all advising him to apologize to that despicable man. No one understood him; everyone looked at him with accusing, angry, and disdainful eyes. It was too unfair, truly…
If Yu Ling’er were to face such a scene of injustice, she might have gone mad. But now, Ye Xuan no longer felt any pain; he had become numb. Having gone through such experiences, Ye Xuan was probably about to be beguiled by the Heart Demon. Yu Ling’er even somewhat hoped that Ye Xuan would be beguiled.
Becoming a puppet of the Heart Demon, at least, he wouldn’t have to live in such pain. Moreover, after Ye Xuan fell into demonhood, he would begin his revenge against Yu Shou. Yu Ling’er knew that succumbing to the demonic path was wrong, but at that moment, she really wished Ye Xuan would quickly fall into demonhood and destroy Qin Yushou, that beastly scoundrel. Such thoughts were uncontrollable.
Only after realizing she harbored such thoughts did Yu Ling’er understand the depth of despair Ye Xuan must have experienced. She had always followed the teachings of Taihua, upholding the responsibility of protecting the common people and seeking the path of immortality. But at that moment, even she abandoned her principles, hoping Ye Xuan would succumb to demonhood.
She was merely a bystander, yet she had given up her moral baseline. Even knowing that Ye Xuan’s demonhood would lead to the deaths of her parents and senior brothers, she couldn’t resist these thoughts. How could Ye Xuan, the person actually experiencing this, not succumb to demonhood?
In the Qingyan Peak hall, Ye Xuan was numb. The fury that had risen moments ago was now extinguished by the indifferent gazes of his master, senior brothers, and sisters. Even as Yu Shou looked at him mockingly from behind everyone, it no longer provoked any reaction in him. To Ye Xuan at that moment, it seemed as if he was the only one in this world… The endless loneliness and injustice surged towards him.
“Do you see how these people treat you?” Just then, the Heart Demon’s voice echoed in Ye Xuan’s mind again. “No one understands you, no one cares about you. In their eyes, you’re just a nuisance. Wake up, accept my power, then kill them all and take away the woman you love the most.” The Heart Demon’s voice carried endless temptation.
The originally numb Ye Xuan’s eyes gradually began to darken. “I will never indiscriminately kill the innocent, but…” Looking at Yu Ling’er before him, a sense of hatred began to rise in Ye Xuan’s eyes.
“Do you hate me… Junior Brother…?” Seeing the hatred in Ye Xuan’s eyes, a tear rolled down Yu Ling’er’s cheek. Maybe he should hate her. Everything he did was caused by her distrust of him. His descent into despair was her fault. If only she had believed his explanation initially, none of the subsequent tragedies would have happened.
She shouldn’t blame herself for everything; after all, she didn’t know the truth, and Ye Xuan was the one who committed the killings. But everything Ye Xuan did was because of her; how could she not be involved? His anger and hatred at this moment were also caused by her.
Just as Yu Ling’er was thinking this, in the scene: Ye Xuan looked at Yu Ling’er, his eyes showing unprecedented determination: “I will never let you marry such a beastly scoundrel. To save you… what does it matter if I become a demon?!”
“——!!!” Yu Ling’er had thought that at that time, Ye Xuan must have hated her to the bone. So, his descent into demonhood was for revenge against her. All the subsequent events were because she didn’t believe Ye Xuan, and she brought it upon herself. But now, hearing Ye Xuan’s true feelings, Yu Ling’er was stunned.
Until that moment, Ye Xuan was still thinking about saving her from the clutches of a despicable man? He… fell into demonhood for her sake?!!
