Chapter 233: This is all Ye Xuan’s Sin
“Stop–!!”
Just as Dan Muyu was about to punish Wu Simai, a soft yet commanding voice echoed from afar. Everyone knew it wasn’t Ye Xuan, as the voice belonged to a woman.
Accompanying the voice, a woman dressed in Nanzhao royal attire walked over. She stared at Dan Muyu and said, “High Priestess Dan Muyu, do you really have to punish Wu Simai?!”
————
“It’s the princess...” Seeing the figure in the scene, all the Nanzhao people couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Sister...” Upon seeing the beautiful princess in the scene, Prince Nan Ming’s eyes flashed with a hint of nostalgia.
She was the former princess of Nanzhao, Nan Yueling, beautiful and kind-hearted. However, after the underground spring eruption, she too had perished.
“This... another beauty...”
“Although the customs of Nanzhao are strange, they do have many beauties.”
Seeing the princess of Nanzhao in the scene, the cultivators discussed amongst themselves.
“Indeed. This princess is also quite the beauty.”
Seeing the princess before her, Dan Muyu sneered, “So, princess, are you here to plead for this traitor? As a princess of Nanzhao, do you want to watch someone violate the Blood-Soul and not be punished, risking the entire Nanzhao people to suffer from it?!”
Hearing this, Nan Yueling frowned, her beautiful face showing some helplessness. “High Priestess, the Blood-Soul matter is long in the past, no one knows if the power still exists. Wu Simai only pursues her freedom, what wrong has she done?”
“Hahaha, what wrong has she done?” Dan Muyu said, “You ask, what wrong has she done–!!! Ignoring the safety of all Nanzhao citizens is her wrong–!”
“Princess, Prince... please don’t plead for me anymore,” Wu Simai said from the side, “I violated the ancestral rules, I should be punished.”
“Dan Muyu–!” Nan Yueling ignored Wu Simai’s words and stared at the High Priestess before her, saying, “Have you forgotten? You once had a lover and wanted to break the engagement for him.”
“So, it was because of Wu Simai that Ye Xuan took out his anger on all of Nanzhao, deliberately igniting the underground spring, leading to the downfall of Nanzhao!”
“That seems to be the case. Although Wu Simai was punished, Nanzhao provoked Ye Xuan and faced the disaster of annihilation.”
“It looks like this lifetime’s Ye Xuan has already faced his tragedy...”
Amidst the discussions, the scene continued.
————
“Brother Xuan, I’m sorry...”
In the scene, Ye Xuan was quietly looking in the direction of Nanzhao. At this moment, a figure slowly approached from behind.
This figure brought with it a chilling wind. Ye Xuan took a deep breath, his face instantly showing pain. Clenching his hands, he dared not look back.
————
Outside the scene, watching this unfold, everyone also showed a look of pity. The woman appearing behind Ye Xuan was the recently punished Wu Simai... her remnant soul.
Wu Simai, who appeared behind Ye Xuan, was now only a remnant soul. Ye Xuan was still waiting for her return, but now, what came back was just a faint remnant soul.
“Hehe...” Ye Xuan let out a bitter laugh, “Wu Simai... didn’t you promise to return safely? Didn’t you say that as long as I waited patiently, you would come back to me one day?!”
“I’m sorry, Brother Xuan.” Apart from apologizing, Wu Simai could only cry silently.
This result was not what she wanted to see. But sometimes, things are truly beyond one’s control. How could her heart not be filled with sorrow?
Wu Simai’s death confirmed to everyone that Ye Xuan had indeed taken out his anger on Nanzhao, leading to its destruction.
————
“Damn–!!!” High Priestess Dan Muyu, standing aside, cursed as she watched the scene in the sky. She refused to admit that her punishment of Wu Simai led to Nanzhao’s destruction.
All this was Ye Xuan’s sin–!!!
