"Chi Yue, you'll pay for my husband's life!"
"Chi Yue, I think you're the one who's evil! Instead of helping your own people when you're out in the world, you're helping your enemies to persecute your own kind. Do you have any conscience at all?! Because of your sins, the entire Holy Land has been ruined! How can you still have the face to live?!"
"Chi Yue, you vile wench! You've killed my master and junior brother! Why wasn't it you who died?"
"Chi Yue, I swear I will never let you get away with this!"
...
The deafening curses and insults nearly engulfed the entire mansion. If it weren't for the array protecting the Chi Yue family mansion, it would have been trampled to the ground by these angry relatives of the victims.
Meanwhile, in the mansion, in the boudoir where Chi Yue resided.
Chi Yue huddled in a dark corner, trembling as she hugged her legs, tears streaming down her face.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to hurt everyone..."
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong..."
"How can I atone for my sins..."
Chi Yue's mind had completely collapsed at this moment.
Since waking up from her coma, she has been immersed in boundless regret, constantly recalling her experiences at the Yingyue Sect. The more she thinks about it, the more she hates herself for her foolishness and the more she feels ashamed of her indifference.
Especially after being subjected to insults and curses from the victims' families, she realized even more deeply how vicious and ruthless she had been.
Back then, Chi Yuan must have experienced something similar – being betrayed and abandoned by everyone. She could now fully imagine how much pain and despair Chi Yuan must have felt at that time.
Because she had experienced the same feeling, she had come to understand it deeply; it was a thousand times more painful than death!
Chi Yuan is right: one should not advise others to be kind if one has not experienced their suffering.
Now that she has personally experienced such pain, she understands why Chi Yuan cannot even forgive his own younger brother, and why his malice is so deep.
This kind of pain is truly unbearable for a human being...
However, she was different from Chi Yuan. Chi Yuan was wronged, but she had truly committed a sin. All the insults and curses she suffered, all the pain and despair she endured, were what she deserved!
"Chi Yue, get out here! You've committed terrible sins and harmed everyone, but now you're hiding and afraid to face anyone, making our family take the blame for you. Do you want to ruin our whole family?"
Just then, a sharp, angry curse came from outside the boudoir.
Chi Yue's heart skipped a beat. It was her stepmother's voice. Before, her stepmother would always greet her with a smile, praising her as the pride of the family and using her as an inspiration to her own children. But now...
"Chi Yue, you should take responsibility for your own actions. If you have any sense of responsibility, you should take full responsibility for your crimes and not drag the family down with you! Otherwise, I will never acknowledge you as my niece again in this lifetime!"
Another piercing sound came from behind; it was the voice of Chi Yue San Niang, who had always doted on her since childhood.
Chi Yue trembled, a stronger fear gripping her mind.
don't want……
Please don't...
However, what you fear most is what happens.
Just as Chi Yue's second and third aunts spoke, an even more piercing voice rang out: "Chi Yue, I never imagined that Xiao Song was killed by your own sister! How much he used to admire you, how much he loved you as his sister, and now he died innocently because of your stupidity! How could you face Xiao Song?!"
"I am a sinner! How could I have raised such a wicked person like you! Now Xiaosong is dead because of you, and our family is hated by the entire Holy Land because of you. There will be no place for our family in the Holy Land anymore! How are we supposed to survive?!"
Hearing her mother's cries and accusations, Chi Yue was heartbroken. She felt no resentment, only hatred for herself, for not only causing the death of her younger brother, but also bringing disaster upon her entire family...
"You wretched girl, you're not only brainless, but you've also lost your heart! How could you be so vicious and cold-hearted? Now the Holy Land's fortune has been greatly damaged because of you, countless disciples have died because of you, Xiao Song died tragically because of you, and even the eternal glory that should have belonged to my Chi family has been completely destroyed by you! How can you ever atone for your sins!"
Another heartbroken voice rang out; it was the voice of Chi Yue's father.
The light in Chi Yue's eyes had faded. Although no one said it outright, she could tell that her relatives, including her parents, wanted her to sever ties with the family.
Nobody wanted to stand with her; everyone wanted to stay far away from her, like... avoiding a plague!
A self-deprecating smile appeared on Chi Yue's lips. Wasn't she just a plague god?
She hasn't even finished paying for the bad consequences she caused. If others don't stay away from her, are they going to suffer with her?
Chi Yue wiped away her tears, stood up numbly, and walked out step by step.
As Chi Yue stepped out of her room, she was met with a large number of stares.
Her relatives came, but they looked at her more strangely than strangers, and many even harbored hostility. Even the young children gave her cold looks.
He must have experienced something similar back then, right?
Chi Yue murmured to herself, each step she took causing her excruciating pain. The pain that penetrated to the bone made her understand even more why Chi Yuan's hatred was so deep.
This also made her admire Chi Yuan even more for being able to stay true to himself despite suffering such pain.
This is the true right path! The right path she used to think of was utterly naive and laughable.
"Father, Mother, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, rest assured, I, Chi Yue, will take full responsibility for my actions and will never burden the family."
“I will sever ties with my parents, my family, and the Holy Land. My sins will be judged by the Holy Land. No matter how the Holy Land decides to deal with me, I will bear the consequences and will never implicate my family.”
Chi Yue spoke as if she had lost her soul, and walked step by step toward the gate of the mansion, following the path made by the crowd.
No one stopped her, no one advised her, and no one sympathized with her. Everyone silently followed behind, their indifferent gazes never leaving Chi Yue. It didn't feel like a farewell; it felt more like supervision.
Although Chi Yue's parents had complicated feelings, knowing that they might also lose their daughter forever, they also knew that they had no choice. The sins Chi Yue had committed were beyond their ability to bear. They had to sever ties with Chi Yue so that the family could have an explanation.
Soon, Chi Yue arrived outside the mansion.
This time, there were no more indifferent gazes, because all the eyes that looked at her were filled with resentment.
They couldn't hate Chi Tianhao because they weren't qualified, much less could they hate the Heavenly Dao. As for Chi Yuan? Putting aside the fact that Chi Yuan hadn't done anything wrong, who would dare to hate someone with eternal destiny? Who would dare to hate someone who could incur divine retribution?
They could only hate Chi Yue, and only by hating Chi Yue could they alleviate their grief.
“I know everyone hates me, and I hate myself more than anyone else.”
"I will not make any excuses for myself. Please rest assured that I will atone for the mistakes I have made. I will accept whatever punishment I am given. Whether I die, become a cripple, or live a life of suffering, I, Chi Yue, will leave it all to fate."
