Chapter 40: Mu Qingxue Regrets and Sheds Tears

Chapter 40: Mu Qingxue Regrets and Sheds Tears

The cold words of Qin Zhenbei made everyone feel a chill run through their entire bodies.

Everyone who witnessed the scene that once took place in the study of the Qin Princes Mansion felt their hearts trembling.

Is this even like father and son?

Even enemies with grudges would not be able to show such contempt for life and death.

It was as if Qin Xuan's life, in the eyes of Qin Zhenbei, was not worth mentioning.

It wasn't even comparable to slaughtering a piece of poultry.

"What a sin, this is simply a sin!"

"I originally thought that Qin Xuan was guilty of all sorts of evil and his crimes were heinous, but in the end, I discovered that this was all a scheme set up by the Qin Princes Mansion. The purpose was to make everyone despise Qin Xuan, so that the Qin Princes Mansion could naturally strip away his Supreme Bone!"

"Being framed and slandered by enemies is one thing, but for someone like Qin Xuan to be framed by his own Family and his own father is truly an immense injustice!"

"In the past, let alone seeing it, I had never even heard of such a thing!"

"Qin Xuan is not some Young Master of the mansion guilty of heinous crimes; he is clearly a tragic and extremely unfortunate person! Being born into the Qin Princes Mansion was the worst stroke of bad luck in eight lifetimes for Qin Xuan!"

"If it were anyone else in such a situation, even in death, they would not be able to rest in peace!"

"It is too tragic, simply inhumane!"

The Disciples of the Yaochi Sacred Land, witnessing this scene and looking at Qin Xuan again, felt their hearts constrict.

Framed by his Family, plotted against by his biological father.

Even his Supreme Bone was forced to be stripped away.

How desperate must he have felt the moment he was expelled from the Qin Princes Mansion?

Becoming the target of everyone's criticism, bearing fabricated charges.

How aggrieved must he have been in his heart?

No wonder earlier, when the Saints of the Yaochi Sacred Land revealed their murderous intent, wanting to kill him and seal his Divine Soul in the netherworld forever, he remained completely unfazed.

Compared to the grievances Qin Xuan suffered, death seemed like a form of relief!

In Qin Xuan's eyes, perhaps he had long since held no hope for this world.

From the moment he was expelled from the Family by the Qin Princes Mansion, he might have already prepared himself to face death.

It is no wonder he would collude with the Demonic Path and kill Qing Ning and other True Disciples.

Even his Family slandered him; in his eyes, what difference was there between the Righteous Path and the Demonic Path?

Having suffered such immense grievances, how could he allow himself to be bullied again?

At worst, it's just death.

If there is anyone to blame, it can only be blamed on Qing Ning and the other True Disciples for being too unlucky and provoking Qin Xuan, who no longer wished to live.

"Qin Xuan..."

Mu Qingxue looked at the slender figure standing in front of her, and for some reason,

her heart felt a sharp, needle-like pain.

She understood; she finally understood why Qin Xuan had previously emphasized that she did not believe him.

The grievances and framing he suffered in his Family had made Qin Xuan almost completely despair of the entire world.

Deep in his heart, he actually still held a sliver of longing, hoping to be trusted.

Fantasizing that he could find a sliver of hope to live on from her.

However, she did not choose to believe him, but instead listened to the one-sided story of the Qin Princes Mansion. From beginning to end, she insisted that he was jealous of the Supreme Bone in Qin Hao's body, and that it was his heinous crimes that led to the current situation.

Mist filled Mu Qingxue's beautiful eyes.

She was remorseful, hating her past accusations.

Her certainty, her lack of trust—she did not know how much immense damage it would cause to Qin Xuan's heart.

After being hurt time and time again, in the end, Qin Xuan was still willing to put aside his grievances and stand up to face death for her!

"Qin Xuan, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have disbelieved you."

Mu Qingxue covered her face with her hands and shed tears.

Intense self-reproach made her unable to control herself.

The full curves of her chest rose and fell, and crystal-clear tears continuously welled up and slid down between her fingers.

It was too late for regrets.

Right now, she didn't even have the courage to face Qin Xuan.

Nor did she have any qualification to comfort Qin Xuan at this time.

When Qin Xuan needed comfort the most, she, his fiancée, had only added insult to injury.

The harm she brought to Qin Xuan was no less than the harm Qin Xuan suffered in the Qin Princes Mansion!

【Daughter of Luck Mu Qingxue feels extreme guilt towards the host, rewarding the host with +15,000 Villain Points!】

【Daughter of Luck Senior Sister Ziyuan's favorability towards the host has increased, rewarding the host with +20,000 Villain Points!】

The System notification sound in his mind made Qin Xuan notice the tearful Mu Qingxue.

He didn't stop her either; he was happy to see such a scene.

Let her cry.

The sadder she cried, the more aggrieved Mu Qingxue felt inside, and the more guilty she was towards him.

For a Daughter of Luck with such a high moral standard, only guilt could make her forget the unpleasantness of the past.

And subsequently self-indoctrinate, saving him from wasting his breath on Mu Qingxue in the future.

"It's just that I don't know why Senior Sister Ziyuan's favorability increased right now. Could it be some perverted possessiveness, thinking that I belong only to her?"

Qin Xuan was curious, but he didn't look at Senior Sister Ziyuan.

Instead, he maintained a cold expression, looking straight ahead, crafting a persona of being world-weary and desperate.

"Mother, I want to save Qin Xuan. Can you help me?"

Senior Sister Ziyuan was sending a voice transmission to the Peak Master of Danding Peak.

She wanted to save Qin Xuan; she absolutely would not allow anyone to harm him.

Previously, she had suspected Qin Xuan's motives for approaching her.

Now it seemed that it was just that Qin Xuan had grown to despise this world to the point of despair, and was not afraid of death at all.

That was why he was different from others and did not fear her Cursed Poison Body.

He was willing to risk his life to withstand her Cursed Poison Body!

Perhaps their fates were truly the same: one with a Cursed Poison Body, reviled by everyone, and the other possessing a Supreme Bone, yet plotted against and framed by his Family.

Her Cursed Poison Body was actually unable to cause any harm to Qin Xuan.

This made her and Qin Xuan close friends!

And it also gave her the only friend she would ever have in this life.

The Peak Master of Danding Peak replied in a deep voice via transmission, "Senior Sister Ziyuan, Mother cannot intervene."

She felt a mix of sorrow and joy. She was happy that after so many years, her daughter had finally asked her for something, treating her as a mother and being able to make requests without hesitation.

She was sorrowful because, in the current situation, she, as just the Peak Master of Danding Peak, could not influence the life or death of Qin Xuan.

This matter involved too much, to the point where even she, a Saint King, could not protect Qin Xuan.

"If you won't save him, I will save him myself."

Senior Sister Ziyuan was not aggressive.

She simply cast a tender gaze towards Qin Xuan.

Looking at Qin Xuan's determined profile, she recalled in her mind the cunning look Qin Xuan had when he first approached her.

She said firmly in her heart, "No matter what, I will not let you die here."

"We are friends, eternal friends."

She looked down at the diamond ring on her finger that had been refined into a Storage Ring, smiled knowingly, and said, "Besides, you haven't seen my face yet!"

"Enough!"

Everyone was stunned by the angry shout.

Qin Zhenbei's expression was so gloomy it could drip water.

In his eyes, murderous intent blazed brightly.

He wanted to slaughter everyone here.

He would not allow any of what happened here to spread even a little bit.

But this was the Yaochi Sacred Land; even if he exhausted the entire strength of his Family, he could not slaughter everyone clean.

Qin Zhenbei could only silently swallow this insult, stare at Qin Xuan, and shout angrily, "Return the Supreme Bone!"
