Truth Exposed, Empresses Beg for Forgiveness-Chapter 103: You Don’t Need to Remember Me, Just Forget Me as a Passing Stranger in Your Life...

Chapter 103: Chapter 103: You Don’t Need to Remember Me, Just Forget Me as a Passing Stranger in Your Life...

The atmosphere in the scene had completely frozen to the brink of coldness.

An invisible string seemed about to snap entirely.

At the moment this string snaps, it is when the furious Sword Intent from both sides will erupt completely!

Yet Jian Ling’er spoke at this moment, breaking this deadlock.

"Ling’er, go ahead."

The young Luo Xuan also held Jian Ling’er’s hand firmly.

Jian Kuanglan’s face showed a thoughtful expression.

Momentarily restraining the killing intent, wanting to see what Jian Ling’er would say.

"Wood, honestly, even if I’m devoured, it’s no big deal..."

Jian Ling’er’s first words.

caused the young Luo Xuan, who was holding her hand, to freeze, even in his palm!

"Wood, I naturally belong to the Sword Spirit Race; contributing to the Sword Spirit Race is only fitting...

Moreover, didn’t the Sword Master just say that I’ve absorbed the True Meaning of the Sword Dao from the Eastern Sword Domain for millennia, and only then was I able to take form.

From this perspective, the Sword Spirit Race and the Eastern Sword Domain also count as gracious to me.

Being devoured by the Sword Master is a repayment of this cause and effect..."

Once Jian Ling’er’s words came out.

Many cultivators didn’t expect Jian Ling’er would choose to willingly be devoured by Jian Kuanglan.

Could it be that she truly suffers inside, to the point of giving rise to a death wish?

"Perhaps, Jian Ling’er is really in such pain that she has developed a death wish, and doesn’t want to live in this world anymore."

"Indeed, after struggling hard for so many years to have a Sword Heart, only to be told it’s all an illusion, all those efforts are utterly useless, truly hitting despair."

"Not only that, Jian Ling’er also learned today that she was merely a Flawless Sword Bone, not even considered human!"

"Born as a Sword Bone, and due to being a Sword Bone, she can never have a Sword Heart, who wouldn’t develop a death wish under such blows."

Many cultivators only felt that Jian Ling’er probably had already developed a death wish.

Today’s events were just too overwhelming for her.

Even Wang Teng’s eyes brightened.

If Jian Ling’er dies, she can absolutely never be the future Sword Spirit Empress, never be Jian Lingxin.

Moreover, even if Jian Ling’er requested it voluntarily, it means the Young Celestial Emperor will hand her over.

So the Young Celestial Emperor selling out his benefactor is indeed confirmed!

"Everyone, it’s obvious, Jian Ling’er died here.

And it’s definitely because the Young Celestial Emperor didn’t stop her next, handing her over.

Sure enough, the Celestial Emperor is just such a betrayer of benefactors!"

Wang Teng pledged earnestly, feeling that everything was now under his control!

And many cultivators couldn’t help but feel somewhat restless.

Emperor Wang, you child of fortune lacking intelligence, stop flaunting, just keep quiet and nobody will consider you a mute!

Many cultivators believed Jian Ling’er certainly had developed a death wish.

However, a small portion of deeply passionate cultivators remained silent throughout.

They seemed to have noticed something, and couldn’t help but sigh quietly inside.

This woman is indeed pitiful!

...

In the scenes reflected by the Reincarnation Mirror.

Even Jian Kuanglan hadn’t expected Jian Ling’er would be so sensible.

She voluntarily told the young Luo Xuan she wanted to die being devoured.

It being her own request, the young Luo Xuan surely had no reason to stop her, right?

Jian Kuanglan’s killing intent dispersed, his face once again showing a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you heard it too; it is Jian Ling’er’s own wish, why persist in your delusion?

Born as a Sword Bone, her fate was to be devoured.

Now, she’s merely walking the path she’s destined to take."

Jian Kuanglan had a faint smile.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you shouldn’t have joined this gambit.

I, as Sword Master, had already chosen for you; as long as you peacefully finish reading in the Library Pavilion over these five days, you need not choose yourself.

Now, not only I but Jian Ling’er have chosen for you.

Wouldn’t it be better not to have joined this gambit from the start?"

The young Luo Xuan was unmoved, merely fixedly watching Jian Ling’er before him.

Seeing this, Jian Kuanglan continued.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, everything I, as Sword Master, previously said, all the conditions promised, remain valid at this moment.

Everything past can be overlooked by me."

Jian Kuanglan’s killing intent toward the young Luo Xuan had completely dissipated.

As long as Jian Ling’er voluntarily sought death, and he devoured Jian Ling’er’s Flawless Sword Bone.

His goal would then be fully achieved.

While the young Luo Xuan cultivated the Guardian Sword, though its power outside guardianship was hard to wield.

The Guardian Sword could indeed change its object of protection.

For instance, later when he leads the Sword Spirit Race, cultivating Luo Xuan as devoted to protecting the Sword Spirit Race, his position as Sword Emperor, would instead be fortunate!

Even if the young Luo Xuan grows more obsessive.

Devouring Jian Ling’er’s Flawless Sword Bone means he possesses her Sword Bone.

Perhaps then, the young Luo Xuan would protect him as he did Jian Ling’er.

In such case, for Jian Kuanglan, it wouldn’t be a loss but gratuitously acquiring an exceptionally obedient killing machine!

Thinking of this, Jian Kuanglan’s smile grew even wider.

In the next instant, Jian Ling’er, who had been holding the young Luo Xuan’s hand, let go at that moment.

Then directly came forward, embracing the young Luo Xuan.

This embrace lacked any awkwardness or embarrassment, instead exuding bold grace.

"Wood, let us take this embrace to say our proper farewell.

I shall always remember you as a good friend... no, after being devoured, unsure if I can remember you...

Then make sure to remember me as a good friend... forget it, don’t remember me, just consider me a passerby in life you easily forget..."

As many cultivators watched this scene unfold.

Even those who weren’t deeply passionate cultivators, felt their hearts sour without reason.

Even Nalan Qingcheng’s heart felt a bit complex.

Yet this complexity quickly got overshadowed by other emotions.

Farewell be as it may, Jian Ling’er you are embracing him too long!

After quite a while, Jian Ling’er realized she had to let go.

She couldn’t let the young Luo Xuan perceive her lingering sentiments.

Otherwise, this "Wood" might do something irrational.

Jian Ling’er released the young Luo Xuan and turned away with a feigned composure.

"Goodbye, Wood, everything in the small cottage in Frost City is yours now, you’ve truly gained a lot."

The young Luo Xuan watched Jian Ling’er’s back, with an indiscernible heartache in his eyes.

"Ling’er, tell me, is this truly your choice? Do you really... not want to live?"

"Certainly, didn’t I just say I should repay this cause and effect?"

Jian Ling’er didn’t turn around, trying to keep her voice calm.

Seemingly not wanting the young Luo Xuan to see her expression at that moment.

"Very well, if that’s the case, I respect your choice."

Upon hearing this, Jian Kuanglan’s smile grew wider.

His plan was finally coming to fruition, with prospects of enlisting the young Luo Xuan.

In the Celestial Emperor Palace, countless cultivators felt increasingly complex emotions, simply wanting to sigh.

Wang Teng’s eyes grew brighter still.

Yet he heard the young Luo Xuan say again.

"Ling’er, do you remember what you said when you and I became good friends?"

"What?"

Jian Ling’er’s voice betrayed a hint of confusion.

This wasn’t feigned, she genuinely didn’t remember.

The young Luo Xuan watched her back.

"Not seeking birth on the same year, month, or day, but asking to die on the same year, month, and day!"

Upon these words, Jian Ling’er’s entire form seemed utterly frozen at once!

Never having turned, she finally faced the young Luo Xuan the next moment.

Her beautiful eyes showed evident tear stains.

And at this moment, her gaze held an undeniable panic!
