Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness-Chapter 159
Chapter 159: Tears Fall, Coming Quickly
In front of a massive stele in Jade Fox Palace, all the disciples of Jade Fox Palace gathered. Their gazes filled with immense hatred, they stared fiercely at a man standing in front of the stele. The man, covered in blood, whose handsome face was now smeared and unrecognizable with blood, was Ye Xuan.
“Ye Xuan, the disciples of Jade Fox Palace are not buried after death, but are cremated, and their ashes scattered in the Wanhua Gardens of Jade Fox Palace. This stele is the memorial for all the lost souls of Jade Fox Palace!” Hu Qianzao stood in front of Ye Xuan, speaking coldly, “Do you see? They are all watching you from the underworld–!!!”
“Kill him–!!!”
“Kill him, use his blood to pay respects to our brothers and sisters harmed by him–!!!”
“Just killing him is too lenient for him!”
As Hu Qianzao’s words fell, the disciples of Jade Fox Palace were enraged, shouting angrily at Ye Xuan, “Ye Xuan, you don’t need to say anything, just accept your death peacefully–!” Hu Qianzao looked at Ye Xuan with an icy expression.
At this moment, she was extremely excited. She had finally defeated Ye Xuan, finally had the chance to avenge those disciples of Jade Fox Palace who had been harmed by Ye Xuan.
Hearing this, Ye Xuan silently closed his eyes, waiting for death to come.
“Although the people of Jade Fox Palace were not killed by my hand, they were implicated by me. Now that Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu is dead, it’s fitting to use my blood to pay respects to the lost souls of the injured and dead of Jade Fox Palace. If it brings them peace, then enduring this injustice… is worth it.”
“But, although I am willing, being hated by her like this… it hurts.”
“My heart is so cold.”
“Why do I feel an icy sensation in my eyes?”
“Could it be that tears are about to flow?”
Drip…
A tear rolled down from Ye Xuan’s eye, hitting the ground with a clear sound. This sound, which should have been pleasant, made Ye Xuan’s heart ache as it hit the ground in front of him. He did not want her to see him in this disheveled state before he died.
However, seeing Ye Xuan’s state, Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but sneer, “Hehe, if only you had known, why bother in the first place? You, a mass murderer, also know fear, also know how to cry? I thought your heart was made of ice–!” As she spoke, her face showed disgust.
“Ha ha ha ha, daughter, do you see? The great evil doer who killed you has been captured by the palace master. He is even crying out of fear, you can rest in peace now.”
“Ha ha ha, I thought what kind of villain Ye Xuan was. It turns out he is just a coward, even afraid at the moment of death–!”
“He deserves it. Did he ever think that there would be today before he committed those evils?!”
As Ye Xuan had feared, his tears only brought ridicule from the people of Jade Fox Palace. He wanted to stop his tears, but the misunderstanding of his beloved, even though he was prepared, was still too much to bear; tears flowed like a fountain.
“Seeing you like this, I feel disgusted, it’s hard to imagine that the first time I saw you, I actually felt something unexplainable… Now thinking back, that feeling must have been disgust!” Hu Qianzao sneered, then with a wave of her hand, Ye Xuan was beheaded. freewēbnoveℓ.com
The people of Jade Fox Palace all stretched their necks to watch this scene. As Ye Xuan’s head fell to the ground, everyone shrank their necks back like ducks being choked.
“Good–!!!”
“Well done–!!!”
“Letting him die like this is too lenient for him–!!!”
The next moment, cheers erupted throughout Jade Fox Palace. Only when looking at the head on the ground, still shedding tears, did people show a look of disgust.
A person who should have been the most beloved of the Jade Fox Palace master, a benefactor who should have avenged the greatest wrong for Jade Fox Palace, a person misunderstood and without a chance to defend himself, was finally dead at this moment.
——–
At this moment, everyone in Jade Fox Palace found themselves gasping for air.
It’s so painful, so unbearable–!!!
Is this truly Ye Xuan’s fate?
Is this the ‘reward’ that Jade Fox Palace gives back to Ye Xuan?!!
At the moment when Ye Xuan had just slain Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu, avenging the people of Jade Fox Palace, when Ye Xuan was willing to give up everything for Hu Qianzao, including his life and his own reputation…
The people of Jade Fox Palace were cheering for Ye Xuan’s death.
Ye Xuan suffered from countless misunderstandings by Jade Fox Palace, yet he never blamed them, not even until the moment of his death.
Even though he was treated as an enemy by the people of Jade Fox Palace, and his blood was used to pacify the spirits of the palace, he voiced no complaints.
Before his death, all he heard were the merciless mockeries from the people of Jade Fox Palace. What kind of sorrow did he endure, and what kind of resilience did he possess, to bear no grudges or hatred in such circumstances?
Perhaps, he wasn’t that strong; it was just… his love reached the extreme, thus he had the courage to face everything. Perhaps, as Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu said, Hu Qianzao never truly loved Ye Xuan, which is why her past life, Hu Qian’er, gave up the memories of Ye Xuan so easily.
Every single event, ultimately, led to Ye Xuan being hurt. Clearly, he was the most innocent person in the world, yet he was treated as the most heinous. Was he really content when he died?!!
Thinking of Ye Xuan’s tragic fate, everyone in Jade Fox Palace was overwhelmed with guilt. They had always thought, at most, it was Hu Qianzao, the palace master, who was unfair to Ye Xuan, who failed to reciprocate Ye Xuan’s love.
But now, they finally understood.
At Ye Xuan’s death, there was not a single person in Jade Fox Palace who could escape blame–!!! Everyone in Jade Fox Palace was at fault towards Ye Xuan.
“Ha ha ha ha ha–!!!” At this moment, Qingxue couldn’t hold back anymore.
She laughed out loud, her expression cold, her gaze sweeping over everyone in Jade Fox Palace:
“This is your hatred towards my husband in Jade Fox Palace, truly an eye-opener–!!!
If you do not give my husband a proper explanation for this incident. Today, it’s not about you not letting go of my husband, it’s about me, Taihua Qingxue, not letting go of you, Jade Fox Palace–!”
“And me–!”
Yu Ling’er also spoke up:

“I know that Ye Xuan would never hold a grudge against you for things of the future; he wouldn’t in the future, and he isn’t now, but I’m not him, I’m not that generous. If you think today’s incident can just be brushed off, that’s too na?ve–!”
As the two women spoke, their own sword intents began to emanate from them. Although Yu Ling’er’s cultivation was still far off, after practicing the Nine Heavens Mystic Sword Technique, her aura was also not to be underestimated.
Moreover, as the leader of the Taihua Sword Saints, Qingxue had long been renowned.
Now, fueled by anger, she no longer suppressed her aura. The formidable sword intent, once released, made many disciples in Jade Fox Palace feel as if even breathing became difficult.
Even on the territory of Jade Fox Palace, Qingxue showed no sign of weakness. Faced with the wrath of the two women, the people of Jade Fox Palace felt an immense guilt.
They were at a loss for words.
They had condemned Ye Xuan based on events that were to happen in the future, but the outcome was… In the future, the whole of Jade Fox Palace owed Ye Xuan too much, far too much.
At the moment when Ye Xuan was beheaded, no one in Jade Fox Palace could claim innocence. And Hu Qianzao, already tear-streaked and nearly fainting from guilt, found the angry stares of the two women unbearable.
Looking at Ye Xuan, Hu Qianzao could no longer maintain the composure expected of a palace master, and cried out, “Let him go, please let him go–!!!”
