She quickly hid.
The door to the thatched hut was suddenly pushed open with a bang, and his master, Su Liuli, entered, followed by Ye Yixuan and Ye Hua.
"Nian'er!"
Seeing Su Nian sitting by the window looking at the scenery unharmed, Su Liuli felt a little more at ease.
She came to Su Nian's side and checked his body.
She grabbed Su Nian's wrist, checked his meridians, and breathed a sigh of relief after finding nothing seriously wrong. Her beautiful eyes held a hint of reproach. "Nian'er! Weren't you seriously injured and on the verge of death last night, and were you put into the spiritual spring by your sixth senior uncle to recuperate? Why didn't you rest properly and instead ran back here?"
"Yes! Third Junior Brother! The sect was invaded last night, and even the Grand Elder was ambushed. Do you know how worried we were when we found you weren't in the Spirit Spring? Luckily you're alright, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat." Ye Yixuan echoed anxiously.
Ye Hua nodded in agreement, his voice serious, "Yes! Senior brother, you were seriously injured last night, it's a miracle you've recovered! Don't run around like that, it makes people worry!"
Su Nian smiled and said to Ye Hua, "If I don't run back, am I supposed to stay where the Grand Elder and that invader are fighting? How can someone like me, whose cultivation has been completely destroyed, withstand a battle between two Void Refinement Realm experts?"
Ye Hua fell silent.
With pity in her eyes, Su Liuli said with unbearable sorrow, "Nian'er, you were so badly injured last night but you still insisted on running back. You must have gone through a lot of pain, right?"
Su Nian shook her head. "Since Master didn't value me in the past, why bother putting on airs? Let's take off our masks and have a proper chat. Nian'er thinks you're more honest."
Su Liuli's breath hitched.
Ye Yixuan glared at him, put her hands on her hips, and angrily rebuked him, "Third Junior Brother! My Junior Brother, Master, and I are genuinely worried about you! We treat you like family, that's why we're so afraid! Why did you say such hurtful things?"
Ye Hua sighed, "Sigh... Senior Sister, don't say that. Senior Brother has only recently recovered, so it's understandable that he's a little confused."
"Hehe...is that so?" Su Nian chuckled lightly.
He distanced himself from Su Liuli, a gesture that left Su Liuli feeling empty, as if she were about to lose something.
"Whatever you think, then so be it." Su Nian said calmly, "When I was kneeling in front of the Hall of Law Enforcement yesterday, I asked my master to abolish my cultivation and demote me to a mortal. I'm tired and don't want to continue this deceit and intrigue. Anyway, no matter how I explain, it's all in vain."
He opened his arms, the wind by the window ruffled his bangs, and a smile appeared on his lips.
It was a genuine laugh, yet it felt like a thorn piercing Su Liuli's heart.
"So... I give up. I give up being the third senior brother of Liuli Peak. I give up cultivating immortality. I'm so tired, far more tired than you can imagine. I don't want to cultivate immortality at all now. I just want to get away from all of this and be an ordinary mortal. Su Su Liuli... I'm sorry. You once defied all opposition to bring me into Quanxiu, hoping I could become a rising star in the cultivation world. I also promised that I would do my best to reach the end of the immortal path, but now... I've broken my promise. No one can undo the despair in my heart, therefore..."
Su Nian took a deep breath.
"Expel me from the sect? Although my nascent soul is destroyed, my spiritual root is still intact, and I still have the strength to establish my foundation. After retiring to the countryside, I will not need any strength. If you can personally destroy my spiritual root, it will be the end of my last hope. So, could you please send me on my way?"
Su Liuli fell silent.
Not only her, but Ye Yixuan and Ye Hua were also speechless.
Ye Hua raised an eyebrow slightly.
When he saw Su Nian unharmed, he thought that Su Nian, who had just escaped death, would give up the idea of self-destruction.
Unexpectedly, his will was so firm that even the King of Hell could not change it.
Hiding in the shadows, Si Qiushan pinched her smooth chin with her slender fingers, deep in thought.
Although it was just a few short words, it was enough for her to understand the whole story.
This dark-skinned knight who could overpower him was actually just a disciple of Liuli Peak?
Moreover, judging from the conversation, he seems to have an irreconcilable conflict with his master.
After a long while, Su Liuli let out a long sigh.
“Nian’er, I know you have been wronged, your Dao heart has been damaged, and your temperament has changed drastically, becoming somewhat extreme. You should think it over carefully. Although your Nascent Soul is now destroyed, your spiritual root is still there. With your talent, it is not difficult for you to rebuild it. But if you make a decision that you will regret for the rest of your life because of a moment of anger, then it will be too late to make amends.”
Whether I will regret it or not is still unknown, but if I continue to stay here, I will definitely regret it.
Perhaps from now on he will no longer be slandered by Ye Hua, but Su Nian cannot accept watching his master and senior sister fall into his arms!
The thought of her past life, fighting bloody battles outside and returning to the sect to find her senior and junior sisters lying in Ye Hua's arms blaming her, caused Su Nian excruciating pain.
He couldn't tolerate his senior and junior sisters, whom he considered family, being deceived by Ye Hua with sweet words and then mocking and plotting against him!
Does Su Nian hate Ye Hua?
Hate! How could I not hate?
It was precisely because of this hatred that he was able to open up the path of reincarnation and become the unprecedented Emperor of Reincarnation!
But can he defeat Ye Hua?
No, he has the help of both the Heavenly Way and the Demonic Way behind him.
He once tried to send himself, at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage, to the past to kill Ye Hua, but what he got in return was the destruction of the Heavenly Dao.
If it doesn't work the first time, try a few more times!
He tried again and again to lower his cultivation level to a point where it wouldn't cause the destruction of the Heavenly Dao, sending his future self to the past.
