"She's going to die."
Wenren Xue's voice carried a hint of schadenfreude. Having witnessed firsthand the disgraceful behavior of those who helped Tianning, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.
She continued, "Tianning, if it weren't for you, these good-for-nothings from Sword Guardian Mountain would have lived out their later years peacefully in the Myriad Swords Sect, instead of dying such a humiliating death!"
She was deliberately provoking Tianning in order to disturb her mind, make the chosen one waver, and cause her to doubt herself...
This was the perfect opportunity for her to strike!
"How about we look at some others?"
Without giving Tianning a chance to refuse, Wenren Xue raised her hand, and a series of water mirrors appeared in front of Tianning.
This time, Wenren Xue was well prepared.
She seemed to have deliberately investigated the past of her senior classmates, reopening old wounds and causing them immense pain!
However, there were also miscalculations.
When they arrived at Long Aotian's water mirror, all they could see was darkness inside the coffin and the noisy sounds of bickering.
An unfamiliar female voice continued to mock: "Long Aotian, you selfish and worthless piece of trash! I cheated on you, yet you don't even have the courage to fight Brother Yang! You are truly cowardly and incompetent!"
Lying motionless in the coffin, Long Aotian exclaimed, "Ah, yes, yes! I'm cowardly, I'm incompetent!"
The woman's voice outside was furious: "I must have been blind to have made this engagement with you, Brother Yang, let's go!"
"Wait a minute..." Long Aotian began, and the woman thought he was reluctant to part with the body, but then she heard the person inside the coffin say:
"Considering our past engagement, remember to leave something for me when you leave. Just leave it outside, and I'll go out and pick it up when my junior sister comes to pick me up."
Having escaped the days of poverty, the poor man had long since become accustomed to frugality.
Frugality is a virtue ingrained in his bones, and he doesn't even spare his exes!
Female voice: "..."
Long Aotian: "I'm not picky, you can give me any kind of garbage."
In this way, his trip to Wenren Mansion wouldn't have been in vain.
Female voice: "..."
It was quiet outside for a long time, until Long Aotian thought no one was there, when suddenly a familiar voice came again.
It was Tian Ning's voice: "Fourth Senior Brother! Something's happened! Come with me quickly to save Third Senior Sister and the others, they've been trapped by demonic cultivators!"
The motionless Long Aotian tentatively asked, "Junior Sister, what books have you been reading lately?"
"..."
What is it?
"...The Sword Techniques of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?"
"Hehe—" Long Aotian said seriously, "It's clearly titled 'After Faking His Death, the Demon Lord Went Mad Again!'"
The voice: "..."
Wenren Xue: "..."
The scene fell into a deathly silence, and Wenren Xue silently cut off the stage.
She showed Tianning Jiang Xi, who was trapped in her inner demons, and Fu Hongming, who was in pain and couldn't distinguish his own personality, as well as the servants in the Wenren Mansion who were being chased by demonic cultivators, along with Madam Wenren, who was also in danger.
Tianning asked, "Aren't you going to save her?"
Even if Madam Wenren wasn't a fish in Wenren Xue's pond, she had always been on her side. She never expected Wenren Xue to be so ruthless.
“If you die, her existence will have little meaning.” Seizing the opportunity, Wenren Xue immediately said, “My mother loved me so much, and she did all this willingly for me. Unlike you…”
"Tianning, you've probably never experienced a mother's love, have you?"
"No, I remember my mother telling me that you were raised by an old man in the mortal realm. She even looked down on you back then, thinking that such a wretched old man raising you, a little girl, must have had ulterior motives, just so you could become his wife!!"
Wenren Xue spoke without restraint, and even though Tian Ning's sword pierced her left shoulder, it only made her reveal a crazy smile.
"Ah... I guessed right!"
Seeing that pretty little face harden, Wenren Xue said excitedly, "Tianning, this is the first time I've ever seen you get angry because of someone."
"You really care about him, the family member who raised you!"
Tianning respected the old man.
Even if the other party is not her biological parents, the old man raised her as both a father and a mother.
Even though he couldn't sew, he patiently made her one beautiful dress after another, though he didn't say anything. Tianning knew he was doing it for her safety. The old man's cooking was terrible, but little Tianning needed to eat solid food and couldn't keep drinking rice porridge, so the old man had to pester the old woman down the mountain to teach him. Once, he even blew up her pot, making her curse him as bad luck afterward. Although the old man was strict, pushing her to learn this and that, he also respected her interests, always traveling hundreds of miles to the capital to snatch the latest published novels. Often, after a long day of studying, Tianning would receive such a surprise…
On the day she left home, she even saw the old man secretly wiping away tears.
He will do everything he can to give her love.
Tianning would not allow Wenren Xue to slander such a good old man!
"Don't rush, those were just appetizers."
Completely ignoring the pain of her wound, Wenren Xue took a few steps back, allowing Tian Ning's sword to be withdrawn from her wound. The space they were in was somewhat strange; from the moment the sword was pulled out, Wenren Xue's wound began to heal.
She was convinced she was going to win!
Just now, Tianning exposed a fatal weakness, and this will be the final blow that defeats her!
"Tianning, take a good look."
Another water mirror appeared, this time outside the Wenren Mansion.
The area outside was already surrounded by countless demonic cultivators. Their orders were that no one should be allowed to escape the Wenren Mansion except for a few specific names!
Before this dark mass of demonic cultivators, an old man with white hair knelt there.
"Ningning, Ningning, where are you..."
He was bent over, his hunched body curled up in a ball, his weathered face filled with fear, perfectly portraying the helplessness and terror of an ordinary mortal who had been bound to the world of cultivation.
Tianning: "..."
"that……"
Wenren Xue probably felt that her moment of glory had arrived, so she threw the sword that had killed the Second Elder and the Third Elder at Tian Ning's feet.
Completely ignoring Tian Ning's utterly speechless expression, Wenren Xue raised her proud head, utterly confident: "Tian Ning, if you want him to live, then kill yourself!"
"Use your life to save the person you care about most!"
Such a meticulously planned layout is absolutely perfect!
You can get rid of this thorn in your side without even getting your hands dirty!
Tianning: "..."
Tianning: "Why don't you... just kill him?"
Wenren Xue: "???"
