Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness-Chapter 86

Chapter 86

“Ah—!!!” Seeing the scene unfold before him, Tiger Dadan couldn’t help but panic. Despite being three against one, they hadn’t been able to harm Ye Xuan.

Now, he had already lost two brothers. Faced with Ye Xuan’s gaze, he showed a look of determination in his eyes and, without hesitation, knelt on the ground: “Spare my life, big brother, please—!!!”

“Weren’t you acting all tough just now?” Ye Xuan coldly sneered at the kneeling tiger demon, “Begging for mercy so soon?!!”

“I…” Tiger Dadan glanced around; one of his brothers had been decapitated, another pierced through the head by Ye Xuan’s sword qi. Both died miserably.

How could he not beg for mercy? If not begging for mercy meant he could live, he wouldn’t do it. But obviously, that wasn’t possible. Begging for mercy was the best choice.

At this moment, he somewhat regretted provoking Ye Xuan. If only he hadn’t been greedy for that bit of fox meat.

Sigh—!!!

“What did you do exactly… why did she fall asleep?” Ye Xuan pointed at the sleeping Hu Yuyu and asked the tiger demon. “If you tell me, I’ll consider sparing you.”

“Uh…” Hearing this, the tiger demon looked at Hu Yuyu and said, “The little fox is young; she falls asleep after eating. Isn’t that common knowledge?!”

Ye Xuan: …

So, she just fell asleep because she was full? Damn, I thought she had been drugged or cursed. I overestimated these three tiger demons.

“So, she’s just asleep, and you three jumped out as if you had succeeded in some scheme. I thought I had really fallen for your trap.” Ye Xuan was speechless.

“She’s asleep, so we don’t have to worry about her escaping,” Tiger Dadan said. “But we didn’t expect you to be so formidable.”

“I see.” Ye Xuan held his forehead in frustration.

‘I thought so. I was watching the whole time; this dumb tiger had no chance to drug her. But when the little fox fell asleep and it called out its two hidden brothers, I was really worried it had some trick I didn’t know about. Turns out I was overthinking.’

“Since that’s the case, you can die now.”

“Ah?” Hearing this, Tiger Dadan exclaimed in shock, “Didn’t you say you’d consider sparing me?!!”

“Yes, I did.”

Ye Xuan stated, “I considered it, but I have decided not to spare you.”

“What, damn it, you’re even more cunning than a fox. I’ll fight you—!!!” Tiger Dadan, overwhelmed with rage, lunged at Ye Xuan again.

However, its actual target was Hu Yuyu behind Ye Xuan. It had realized it couldn’t hurt Ye Xuan, but the little fox was within reach. In its mind, if it was going to die, it might as well take someone down with it.

“Heavenly Sword Vanquishing Demons—!” Without hesitation, Ye Xuan conjured a spell and flung it towards Tiger Dadan. A giant sword formed from spiritual Qi in the sky and slashed down at Tiger Dadan, pinning and instantly killing him on the ground.

“Huff… using instant techniques at the Enlightment stage is still a bit of a strain…” Ye Xuan let out a breath of relief, glanced at the sleeping Hu Yuyu behind him, and smiled slightly. But seriously, sleeping through such danger?

After a while, Hu Yuyu suddenly opened her eyes. “What a strong smell of blood—!!” She saw Ye Xuan quietly eating the meat Tiger Dadan had roasted.

Nearby lay the corpses of the tiger demons, one beheaded, one with a split head, and one even more gruesomely dismembered.

“What… Big brother, what happened?!!” She exclaimed in shock at Ye Xuan.

“It’s nothing.” Ye Xuan smiled, “They just tried to eat you… I took care of them.”

“What?!!” Hu Yuyu shuddered, “Oh my… that’s scary… uh… fox meat isn’t even tasty… didn’t they already have good meat?”

“Who says fox meat isn’t tasty.” Ye Xuan remarked, “They all said fox meat is delicious. I was curious, so I tried your tail. It actually tastes quite good.”

“Ah?!! My tail—!!!” Hearing this, Hu Yuyu quickly checked behind her, relieved to find her tail still there. “Big brother, you tricked me, you’re so mean—!!!”

Facing the young girl, Ye Xuan said, “Okay, no more jokes. I didn’t come to the Cosmic Cave Heaven to do these trivial things. I’m here to cultivate. Considering you’re so young and already here, you must be talented too. Don’t waste time and focus on your cultivation.”

“Um—!” Hu Yuyu nodded and shyly asked, “Big brother, can I cultivate with you? I’m scared of being in a strange place alone.”

“As long as you don’t disturb me, it’s fine.” Ye Xuan replied casually.

“Great, thank you, big brother—!” Hu Yuyu jumped up happily.

Outside the Cosmic Cave Heaven, many immortals were jointly exerting their spiritual power to maintain the connection between the outside world and the Cosmic Cave Heaven.

This joint effort by various major cultivation sects aimed to swiftly elevate the cultivation of new disciples to the Spirit Insight Realm, granting them basic combat abilities.

Far from Mount Taihua, in a secluded valley blooming with myriad flowers, stood a vast palace. This palace, always blooming with thousands of flowers and shaded by green trees, was filled with the melodious laughter of women.

Sometimes they played in the water, sometimes they frolicked, and sometimes they argued. The palace, with its heavy curtains fluttering in the wind, often saw graceful figures moving about. This place was the Jade Fox Palace.

Unlike typical cultivation sects, the Jade Fox Palace was founded by a female fox immortal and thus only accepted demon disciples. Despite being a demon sect, the disciples followed the path of righteous immortality, making the Jade Fox Palace one of the righteous cultivation sects.

At that moment, in the Jade Fox Palace, a woman with a graceful figure sat quietly in the main seat of the great hall. She had a pair of fox ears on her head and nine fluffy tails behind her.

Flanking her were two similarly graceful women, one with cat ears and the other with blue wings. The nine-tailed fox woman was Huxian Cao, the current master of the Jade Fox Palace.

The cat-eared woman, Yaoxing, was the chief steward, and the winged woman, Yuluo, was the second steward.

Finally, the chief steward Yaoxing couldn’t help but speak, “Big sister… how are you?”

“No harm done.” Huxian Cao slowly opened her eyes, revealing a healing wound on her shoulder: “That heartless man, he’s doomed this time.”

“Hmph—!!!” Yaoxing snorted in anger, “Such a heartless person, dying like that is too lenient for him!”

“If only we could grind his bones to dust, curse him with the Heart Devouring Gu, making him unable to live or die—!” Yuluo, the winged woman, added.

“Who says I’ll let him die without understanding why?” Huxian Cao spoke, “Just now, I was fortunate to receive guidance from the Beidu Star Lord. I can reveal future events to others. I’ll make him aware of the sins he committed, then let him beg for death without being granted it—!”

“Big sister, is it true? Did the Great God Beidu Star Lord give you guidance again?” Yaoxing couldn’t contain her excitement, “What exactly will happen in the future? You haven’t even told us what that heartless man did.”

“Yes… To have caused you such misery, he must be a great evil person beyond redemption,” Yuluo also joined in, “Big sister, let us witness his sins—!”

“Hehe… then let me show you… just how vile a human heart can be.” Huxian Cao flicked her finger, conjuring a mysterious light mirror before her. The mirror began to display images.

“Ah… ah…” The scene was initially unclear, but cries could be heard from within. The voice was unmistakably Huxian Cao’s.

“Uh…” Both Yaoxing and Yuluo blushed, “Big sister, were you… in the future by him…”

“Cough.” Huxian Cao, slightly embarrassed, coughed and said, “You misunderstand… look more closely.”

———

The content within the mirror then became clear. It showed Huxian Cao, who usually sat high and dignified, in a state of unbearable agony, clutching her chest and writhing in pain on the ground.

Struggling, she crawled a few steps towards a man, grasping at his feet and begging, “Young Master Ye… Young Master Ye… I was wrong, I was wrong… please, quickly lift the… Curse of a Thousand Desires and Soul Devouring from me…”

“Once, I pursued you relentlessly, yet you never spared me a glance. Do you regret it now?” The man in the image, held by Huxian Cao, was none other than Ye Xuan, who wore a smug expression as he looked down at her, speaking coldly.

Confronted with Ye Xuan’s smug expression, Huxian Cao’s eyes filled with unquenchable hatred, but her face showed a painful and pleading look: “I was wrong… I was wrong… please, Young Master Ye… lift the curse… I truly regret…”

“Hmph, too late—!” Ye Xuan kicked her hand away, heartlessly turned, and left.
