Ruan Xinrou's magnanimity was evident in just a few words, making Qin Zijin's stabbing her seem like a trivial matter. Bai Ying even had to thank him.
If she weren't so weak, Bai Ying would have loved to give her a big round of applause.
Before Bai Ying could express her opinion, her senior brother Su Yu had already chosen to forgive her on her behalf.
Seeing the people from the Enforcement Hall walk in, Su Yu quickly said, "It's just a small matter between fellow disciples, there's no need to make a big deal out of it. Bai Ying, I've already spoken to the people from the Enforcement Hall for you. Zi Jin was just careless. You've already forgiven him, so there's no need to punish him anymore."
Bai Ying looked down at her wound, which was just an inch away from piercing her heart.
It turns out this was just a minor matter between fellow disciples.
They so easily chose to forgive themselves.
These are the fellow disciples she loved with all her might.
In the past, they treated her terribly, and she only thought about repairing the relationship and desperately tried to please them. But all she got in return was their growing disgust.
They said she was jealous, hypocritical, and ruthless in pursuing her own goals. At that time, she only felt that she hadn't done enough.
But they never considered whether these people deserved to be loved.
She would never do that again.
After saying these words, Su Yu prepared to leave.
Bai Ying's voice rang out coldly: "I will not forgive! Punish them as you see fit, there is no need for favoritism."
Everyone was stunned when Bai Ying spoke. Even Su Yu, who was walking away, stopped in his tracks.
Everyone looked at her with disbelief.
Qin Zijing shouted, "Bai Ying, are you crazy? Do you know where the people from the Enforcement Hall are taking me? That's the Cliff of Repentance!"
The Cliff of Contemplation is covered in ice and snow, barren of all vegetation, and the wind howls like knives; it is simply not a place for humans to stay.
Qin Zijing hurriedly grabbed Bai Ying's wrist, trying to get her to change her mind.
He said urgently, "Senior sister, dear senior sister, I really didn't mean it. Please forgive me, okay? You know, I'm most afraid of going to those kinds of places."
In the past, when Qin Zijin made a mistake, she would always beg Bai Ying for forgiveness in this way.
As long as he says so, Bai Ying will choose to forgive him no matter what mistakes he has made.
But Bai Ying remained unmoved. Instead, her heart was filled with sarcasm.
Fear?
Has he forgotten that he went to the Cliff of Contemplation before, and that he went on his behalf?
When Qin Zijin was young, he made a big mistake. Out of fear, he ran to Bai Ying and cried, begging Bai Ying to help him.
Bai Ying didn't know how to help him.
Finally, Qin Zijin came up with a wicked plan.
He begged Bai Ying to take the blame for him and accept the punishment in his place.
That bastard didn't even consider that she wasn't very old back then, still a young woman, yet she had to go to that harsh and cold place.
Isn't she afraid?
But Bai Ying still agreed at that time.
She couldn't bear to see her junior brother cry.
She hoped he would always be happy.
Bai Ying endured three months of hardship alone on the Cliff of Contemplation, ruining her health in the process.
She was truly devoted to Qin Zijin.
However, after Ruan Xinrou arrived, he was the first to side with Ruan Xinrou and express his dislike for him.
This time, she will not forgive him.
Bai Ying abruptly shook off Qin Zijing's hand and firmly said to the people from the Enforcement Hall, "Take him away. I will never forgive him!"
Qin Zijing stared at her with wide eyes, unable to believe her eyes.
His expression was a mixture of shock and anger.
But surprisingly, most of the injuries were to minor injuries.
Bai Ying, how could she do this to him?
Qin Zijing shouted at Bai Ying with extreme agitation, "Didn't I already apologize to you? What else do you want?"
"Senior Sister," Ruan Xinrou quickly said, "Senior Sister, why are you being so petty? It was wrong of Sixth Senior Brother to stab you. But we all saw what happened; you were the one who struck first."
"If you hadn't wanted to hurt Senior Brother Xiao, why would Sixth Senior Brother have stabbed you?"
With just a few words, Ruan Xinrou completely shifted the blame onto Bai Ying.
It seems that Bai Ying was the one who started everything.
Bai Ying said as if she had heard a joke: "Then let him try stabbing you with a sword. Oh, right, remember that the sword must be just an inch away from piercing your heart. Only then can you say that you have to forgive him."
Bai Ying's words silenced everyone.
Even those who had just wanted to join Ruan Xinrou in criticizing Bai Ying shut their mouths.
Senior Brother Su Yu seemed to realize this only suddenly.
yes!
Xiao Liu's sword almost killed Bai Ying!
She was just an inch away from losing her life.
Although she went too far, she didn't deserve to die.
Why didn't he realize it before?
Su Yu then felt a chill of fear, and even his gaze towards Qin Zijing became stern.
"Xiao Wu is indeed seriously injured, and Xiao Liu, you should learn your lesson. Even if you wanted to help Xiao Yu, you shouldn't have attacked so severely."
As he spoke, he looked at Ruan Xinrou.
“Junior Sister, I know you care about Xiao Liu, but he has indeed made a big mistake this time. You shouldn’t take his side.”
But then he abruptly changed the subject.
"Fifth Brother, although Sixth Brother was wrong, aren't you also at fault? Don't forget, the root of this whole thing was your jealousy of our affection for Junior Sister, which led you to disrupt her birthday banquet and attempt to bewitch Xiao Yu with that kind of pill. If we're talking about wrongdoing, yours is far more serious than Sixth Brother's. Sixth Brother will be taken away for punishment, and you won't escape it either..."
Su Yu's original intention was for them to apologize to each other so that none of them would have to go to the Cliff of Repentance.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, Bai Ying raised her head and looked at him with unusually cold eyes: "Since you all think I'm wrong, that I'm jealous of Junior Sister, and that I'm delusional about Xiao Yu, then I will dispel all my cultivation techniques, sever my emotional ties, and cultivate the Heartless Technique. That way you can rest assured. I will never like Xiao Yu again. Nor will I steal any of your affection for Junior Sister."
Without giving anyone time to react, Bai Ying immediately dispelled her internal energy on the spot.
Bai Ying recalled her past life and argued vehemently, trying to prove that she was not wrong.
But no one believed her.
At this point, she would no longer bother explaining herself to a group of people who would never believe her.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Especially the senior brother who had just tried to smooth things over, felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He never intended to force his fifth junior sister to dissipate her cultivation and start over!
It should be understood that the Path of Ruthlessness is not a particularly powerful cultivation technique. Anyone who cultivates the Path of Ruthlessness is essentially severing all emotional ties, and each of them will become a monster without feelings, devoid of love and affection.
Because they have no emotions, cultivators are not disturbed by the mundane world and can focus on cultivation, thus they can cultivate faster than other cultivators.
But it's only a little faster.
Therefore, even though the sect has this technique, no one has ever practiced it.
Su Yu was trembling all over. He rushed over to stop Bai Ying from dissipating her power, but was blocked by a powerful force.
