"Because you're the one who killed my mother." Di Xi chuckled, his eyes filled with madness.
When she learned the truth, she was unwilling to believe it. She recalled the past, thought of the things that were not right, and the mermaid scales that Jingya had hidden in the secret room.
All these unusual occurrences were telling her that she had no choice but to believe the truth, whether she wanted to or not.
Jingya was the murderer who killed her mother and the cause of the extinction of the mermaid race.
Because of her own selfish desires, she destroyed the entire mermaid race.
And she also wanted to use herself to harm her own kind.
Di Xi couldn't understand why Jing Ya could be so cruel. She was clearly the child she had raised.
"Those scales, you peeled them off my mother, didn't you?"
Dixi suddenly laughed. The color of those scales was exactly the same as the color of her tail. Ironically, she had never suspected anything.
Jingya glared fiercely at Dixi, "Yes! You're right! Those are the scales from your mother's tail!"
“When she was still alive, I plucked the pieces off her body one by one!”
"You have no idea how much pain she was in when I plucked her scales!"
Jingya knew she had lost.
She was just an ordinary human being who survived by magic. If she lost the magic that sustained her, her body would quickly decay.
The medicine she was supposed to take was the source of her magic, but it was switched by Di Xi.
Her body began to deteriorate, her face became a bloody mess, and her skin gradually aged.
Jingya couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then she started to cry.
"Why! Why is the truth like this?!"
Nalan Zhao silently moved closer to Shen Zhiyi, hooking her finger around her little finger, "Sister..."
Shen Zhiyi looked up at him, but didn't say anything, letting him pull her along.
Di Yuanxiang stepped out of the water circle, picked up the scroll, and squatted down next to Jingya.
"I should have given you this painting sooner." She handed the scroll over.
Jingya paused and looked at the scroll in Di Yuanxiang's hand.
She reached out to take the scroll, but seeing the bloodstains on her hands, she quickly wiped them on her clothes and reached out with trembling hands.
Her hands were shaking so badly that she was anxious to open the scroll, but she couldn't untie the ropes several times.
Di Yuanxiang sighed softly and reached out to help her unroll the scroll.
Jingya unfolded the scroll; it was her original painting.
And next to Dias, there was another person.
It was her, Jingya.
Dias painted a picture of Jingya as a child next to him, just to make up for Jingya's regret.
There were many opportunities for Dias to personally hand the scroll to Jingya and explain everything to her.
But this cruel world didn't give him a chance.
Jingya's tears, mixed with blood, fell drop by drop onto the painting.
She quickly reached out to wipe it, but fearing she might damage the scroll, she had to move it away slightly.
When Jingya was young, she was very beautiful, and Diyas drew her likeness perfectly.
Jingya gazed at the young version of herself in the painting, crying and then laughing at the same time.
“My father asked me to apologize to you on his behalf. He didn’t explain things to you clearly back then, which delayed you for so many years.”
Looking at her, Di Yuanxiang suddenly felt relieved.
It's as if all their struggles over the years were just a dream.
Di Xi stood to the side without saying a word; she simply watched quietly.
She hated Jingya, hated her for killing her mother, hated her for ruining the happiness she deserved.
Ke Jingya raised her and nurtured her.
Di Xi's hands, which were placed at her sides, tightened and tightened, but finally loosened.
Finally, Di Xi gave Di Yuanxiang and Jingya a deep look before turning and leaving the palace.
As Di Yuanxiang watched Di Xi leave, she hurriedly got up to chase after him, but then stopped.
Jingya was still immersed in her own world, gazing intently at the painting.
At this moment, Shen Zhiyi asked, "Sea God, what do you plan to do with Jingya?"
Di Yuanxiang looked at Jingya and said, "She has lost her magic and won't live much longer. Take good care of her."
"Don't you hate it?" she asked.
"Perhaps it's hatred, but after so many years of hatred, I'm tired, and I don't want to be that tired anymore."
Shen Zhiyi remained silent. They were the main characters in this matter, and as outsiders, they had no right to comment.
"Now that the matter is resolved, I won't bother you any longer."
After a long silence, Shen Zhiyi finally uttered those words.
She was about to leave with Nalan Zhao and Chen Peng when Di Yuanxiang stopped her.
"Come with me somewhere."
Shen Zhiyi looked at Di Yuanxiang and agreed.
Di Yuanxiang put another bubble on them and carried them through the sea.
In the bubbles on the Di Yuan Xiang, they can breathe freely without fear of getting wet from the seawater.
Along the way, Shen Zhiyi looked around from time to time, and thought that some of the scenery in the sea was very beautiful.
"arrive."
Di Yuanxiang flicked its tail, swam two steps forward, and stopped in front of a rock.
She moved something on the stone, and with a soft click, the stone opened.
"Come in with me." Di Yuanxiang swam in.
The three of them followed.
"These are things left behind by the Southern Merfolk. Take a look, and you can take anything you like."
Shen Zhiyi pursed her lips and asked, "Aren't you going to keep the things?"
"No, if I wasn't afraid you wouldn't want it, I would even like to give it all to you."
"They're all gone now, what's the point of keeping these things? Just to evoke sadness? They're already in my memory, and that's enough."
Di Yuanxiang smiled and looked around at the things with lingering affection. "Hurry up and choose. Once you've chosen, I'm going to break this place down."
"You're going to destroy this place?"
Shen Zhiyi could hardly believe it.
Di Yuanxiang nodded. "That's why I said I was afraid you wouldn't want it, otherwise I would have given it all to you."
"..."
Looking at the things in the cave, Shen Zhiyi felt dizzy. If these were taken outside, they would probably be set for life.
Di Yuanxiang actually wants to destroy everything. But then again, she is the Goddess of the Sea and doesn't lack these things.
Di Xi also has no shortage of things.
"If you don't want it, I'll take it all. I don't care about shame."
Shen Zhiyi's main selling point is her shamelessness.
These words amused Di Yuanxiang. "Okay, you can have them all."
Di Yuanxiang pulled out a small bracelet from somewhere and put all the items into it.
"It's all inside. Just use your divine sense to take out whatever you want."
Di Yuanxiang handed the bracelet to Shen Zhiyi.
Since Shen Zhiyi had already said those words, she naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with Di Yuanxiang and directly accepted them, saying, "I'll divide the spoils between you two when we get back."
"Are you leaving soon?" Di Yuanxiang asked.
Shen Zhiyi and Chen Peng exchanged a glance. "It should be soon."
