Wenren Chuchu was heartbroken. However, she was a decisive person, who held the grief down to the bottom of her heart and raised up her head looking at Ye Xiao and said, "Lord Ye, thank you for catching my enemies and saving my life. If you don't mind me asking, have you finished questioning them?"
Ye Xiao was confused, only nodded like a fool.
He didn't understand what was wrong with the lady. He didn't understand why she was fine just then but suddenly became a cold frosted mountain to him. She sounded so distant, and it made him feel embarrassed.
[It this Wenren Chuchu?]
"Accept my gratitude! I will return the favor someday!" She bowed with sincerity, "Thank you!"
Then she stood up and stumbled out a few steps. After that, she walked more and more firmly on the floor. In fact, she had perfectly recovered already, ten times even better than she used to be! The only weakness was inside her heart!
She slowly walked to the five men with the sword in her hand and hatred in her eyes. "I know that to end your lives right now will be… a great relief for you… I feel sad and angry that I don't know any torturing methods like Lord Ye does… No matter what, I have to revenge my master's death with my own hands!"
"I swear to the heavens!" Wenren Chuchu held the sword and spoke word by word, "From now on, I will be fighting against Saint Sunlight Sect and Saint Starlight Sect for the rest of my life! The hatred in my heart will never end! No matter what sins I will commit, I won't regret! I will slaughter every single person in Saint Sunlight Sect and Saint Starlight Sect! I am going to the break them down and kill them all! I swear! Heavens witnesses my vow!"
She said it all out word by word. In her voice, there were murderousness and desperation!
After what she said, the sunny sky suddenly cracked into a thunderclap. The entire Qing-Yun Realm seemed to shake because of it!
With a sound of an explosion, a stream of pale purple light shot from the sky into Wenren Chuchu's forehead!
Her vow was accepted!
She had made an oath to fight against Saint Sunlight Sect and Saint Starlight Sect for the rest of her life!
She slowly turned around and looked at Ye Xiao distantly and said, "Lord Ye, is there anything you want to question them for?"
"No. They are all yours, Lady Wenren." Ye Xiao nodded.
Wenren Chuchu was acting so weird. She even called him Lord Ye! That sounded like they were merely strangers!
Wenren Chuchu looked sullen in the eyes, but then bowed politely, "Thank you, Brother Ye."
She turned around and casually waved her hands without saying anything. Five heads were cut off rolling up to the sky.
She strongly hated the five men so much that she even blasted the five heads into pieces in the air!
Other than that, her soul power was unleashed out and locked the souls of the five men instantly. When she gritted her teeth, the five souls were destroyed!
The five men's souls perished!
Her real power might still be in Dream Origin Stage, but her spiritual qi and spiritual mind were both on the top of Dao Origin Stage. Even though she attacked in the most regular way, it was still astounding and overwhelming! With a finger snap, she could kill those men instantly!
The next moment, she waved her hands again. The misty lotuses that were on the ground started to fly up in the air and move back to her clothes.
If she activated the Misty Lotus again with her current cultivation, she could destroy the world! Even Ye Xiao, Wu Fa, or Xuan Bing might get severely injured! However, Wenren Chuchu didn't know it; nor did the others!
She just stood there peacefully, sighed to the sky and said, "Master, if you are there, please watch me wipe out the two vile sects and take revenge for you!"
Then she kneeled down and kowtowed nine times to the north, thinking, [Master… I know what you would think about this, but I can't... You wouldn't leave without me… I can take anything I want from everybody except you!]
[Ye Xiao is the man you loved…]
[I quit!]
[Master, I am leaving now.]
[I will always keep you in my mind!]
She slowly stood up and turned to Ye Xiao, looking at him with complicated expression in the eyes.
After a while, she said, "Ye Xiao, don't move."
Ye Xiao was astounded. He looked at her, didn't know why this smart lady kept doing things that were out of his expectation. He just couldn't understand it.
Ye Xiao was shocked. He hurriedly reached his hands to hold her and said in surprise, "What are you doing? Get up… Get up now…"
Wenren Chuchu stayed on the ground, raised up her head, looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Brother Ye, listen to me… I know you have done a lot for us, for Misty Cloud palace… We owe you a great deal. You helped me catch my enemies and saved my life when I was dying… You gave me regeneration… You even gave me something that improved my cultivation to such an incredible level…"
"Everything I have, I got it from your kindness!" She stared at Ye Xiao and said, "I am a woman. There aren't many ways for a woman to return favors. It may be the most efficient to give myself to you and serve you for the rest of my life… I thought I should do it because I not only owe you too much but also love you too much."
She calmly continued, "However, I can't do it now. What you have done for me… I can only keep it in my mind… I can't return pay off the debt anymore. So, please… Please don't move, and don't walk away. Just accept my kowtow and let me ease the guilt in my heart."
"I will do whatever it takes to return the favor in the next life! My life is limited, but there will be more lives to come. I promise I will return the favor!" She peacefully said, sounded like she was making another oath!
Ye Xiao was stunned, and then hurriedly said, "Lady Wenren, please don't say that. What are you talking about? We are friends, aren't we? Friends should help each other out. You suffer from such a great loss because you wanted to help Ye Clan in the beginning…"
However, no matter what he said, Wenren Chuchu wouldn't listen. She just kept kowtowing.
Ye Xiao moved aside, but she didn't care.
She formally made nine kowtows to him and then slowly stood up, looking cold, indifferent and distant in the face.
Her stone cold eyes slowly glanced around and calmly said, "Brother Ye, please tell me how my master died… Where is her body?"
Ye Xiao sighed and looked into her determined eyes. He had to tell her everything that happened before she was awake.
Wenren Chuchu quietly listened to every word he said, and then murmured, "It turns out… she didn't leave a thing behind… She lost everything… for me, a useless disciple… She is gone… vanished… leaving no traces behind…"
Her crystal tears flowed down on her cheeks.
She kept looking around and finally found a piece of white cloth in the misery battle… The fabric had the unique patterns of Misty Cloud Palace and bloodstain on it.
It was a small part of Bing Xinyue's clothes.
It might be the only thing that proved Bing Xinyue's existence in the world.
Wenren Chuchu carefully put the cloth into her clothes, with tears in her eyes, said, "Master… We are going home…"
She raised up her head and looked into Ye Xiao's eyes with affectionateness.
Deep in her heart, she thought, [Ye Xiao, you are my love… This is the last time I look at you like this in my life.]
[Master died for me. I can't make a move on the man she loved…]
At last, she gently spoke to him, "Ye Xiao, I wish the best for you."
Before Ye Xiao responded, she suddenly thrust up and shot out like a shooting arrow. With a flash, she disappeared.
What she left was a slight scent of her fragrance.
Her tears were falling from the sky.
The heart of a beautiful girl had been sealed.
Ye Xiao had no idea what had happened to Wenren Chuchu. He wouldn't know what kind of a struggle she had in her heart. What she had done only confused him.
Even though he was confused, he had a strong feeling.
He felt that he and Wenren Chuchu would never run in the same circles anymore unless Bing Xinyue were back to life!
Bing Xinyue was dead, and the paths of he and Wenren Chuchu would never cross each other…
Day after day, they would become strangers to each other.
Ye Xiao smelled the scent that was left of Wenren Chuchu and suddenly felt at a loss…
…
