As she spoke, Xiao Yuhan turned to look at Jun Tan, sighed, and said, "Yes, that's the look in your eyes. It's as if everything is none of your business. You really are boring."
Is it boring? Jun Tan seemed to recall someone saying the same thing to her many years ago. That person was her best friend, who eventually became her mortal enemy. She said that she had no human touch and that no one could get into her heart.
As Jun Tan thought this, his anger grew even stronger. With a casual wave of his hand, he knocked Xiao Yuhan and Nanmen Yihen down, and roared, "I told you! You're not allowed to leave! Xiao Yuhan, what more do you want from me to be satisfied? I've already been so accommodating to you. I haven't killed a single person you forbade me to kill. You asked me to save people, and I helped you save people. And now you still want to leave me!"
Xiao Yuhan got up and stared at Jun Tan. "Miss Tan, this is the first time I've seen you so angry. I didn't know you could get this angry. It's quite unexpected. But... I still want to ask you, what is your view on the human race?"
"Are you saying all this to beg for my pity? To make me give you ants a way to live?"
“Miss Tan, what you’re saying is just about death, isn’t it? Do you really think there’s nothing more important than life and death for a person? What I resent is that Nanmen Yihan has no dignity. What I resent is that your men can use other races as tools for amusement. What I resent is that from beginning to end, you haven’t uttered a single apology or even an explanation. And you seem to think this isn’t a very important matter. Can you really turn a blind eye to what your men have done, or even condone it?”
At this moment, Jun Tan's voice softened considerably, "I will punish her..."
“Miss Tan, I don’t mean to ask you to do anything or what you should do. It’s just that we’re not on the same path. Along the way, there have been countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Even I couldn’t help but feel pity, but you didn’t even flinch. It’s true that Nanmen Yihen’s matter is not important. He’s just an outsider. I saved him only out of a sliver of kindness in my heart. But before, I always held onto the hope that you weren’t what I saw. But now I realize I was wrong. And… you say you are the guardian of the laws of heaven. Can you really turn a blind eye to the evil deeds of the demon race?”
"Because that's how it is. To put it simply, even in the history of your human race, which page doesn't hide bloodshed and desire?"
"That's why we're not on the same wavelength. You're just an outsider, hovering above, watching the chessboard, while I'm right in the middle of the game. What? The player and the pieces become friends? Isn't that ridiculous?"
Jun Tan fell silent. Perhaps she was once a being who transcended the world and was above the mortal realm, but ever since Bai Yao's soul was born, she could never go back. At the last moment, Yu Hui used his power to amplify Bai Yao's consciousness. Now, Bai Yao's consciousness is gradually becoming stronger, and Jun Tan has been suppressing everything that belongs to Bai Yao in her mind.
She thought she could live as before, but gradually she realized that she could never live like before. So the further north she went, the closer she got to the demon realm, the more uneasy she felt.
For some reason, she always felt much more at ease with Xiao Yuhan by her side. Perhaps this was a habit she had developed over the past ten years at the Heavenly Sword Sect. So she wanted to keep Xiao Yuhan with her forever, but now Xiao Yuhan wanted to part ways with her.
This was something Jun Tan could not tolerate. "If you really want to leave, I will kill you, Xiao Yuhan. Don't think that just because you took care of me for a few years, I will be grateful to you."
"Oh? We have such a past? I took care of you? Miss Jun Tan, you are already so powerful, do you still need me to take care of you?"
As she spoke, Xiao Yuhan helped Nanmen Yihen walk slowly forward.
Jun Tan wanted to take action, but couldn't bring herself to do it. Watching Xiao Yuhan's departing figure, she felt a sense of powerlessness welling up inside her. She wanted to stop Xiao Yuhan from continuing forward, but she also understood that it would be pointless to force Xiao Yuhan to stay.
Her face grew paler and paler, and after a long silence, she suddenly cried out, "Master..."
