Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!-Chapter 1410: Demon Sect Leader vs. Justice Maiden (Part 48)

Cheng Mingyue widened her eyes, staring at these people.

Among these people, she knew some, but most she didn’t recognize.

Yet all of these people, without exception, looked at her with malicious eyes.

Cheng Mingyue tried hard to maintain the demeanor of a lady from a prominent Martial World family, and said coldly, "At a time like this, kicking someone when they’re down, isn’t what a true gentleman would do, is it?"

It would have been better if she hadn’t spoken, as soon as the words left her lips, some people in the crowd sneered.

"So Miss Cheng knows what a true gentleman is? I thought Miss Cheng didn’t even know how to write the words for modesty and honor!"

"Those complicated words for modesty, how would Miss Cheng know them? I reckon she doesn’t even recognize the word for face!"

"I clearly heard what she said last night; if I had such a disciple, I would have expelled her immediately! How dare she come out again today pretending to be pitiful, even threatening with death!"

"Exactly, she was expelled from her sect yesterday, but today she acts as if nothing happened, running over here to pretend to be pitiable, threatening with death!"

"Miss Cheng, I advise you, if you really want to die, just go home and die, stop pretending here..."

"..."

Each word pierced Cheng Mingyue’s heart like a sharp blade.

It’s not like this.

Why are these people looking at her like this, why are they saying such cold and heartless words to her?

Shouldn’t they look at her tears and feel a deep pity, shouldn’t they unite against a common enemy with her?

Such looks were unbearable for Cheng Mingyue.

She felt she couldn’t stay here anymore and could only hide her face with her sleeve and leave hurriedly. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

The crowd gathered at the Martial Arts Alliance entrance saw there was no longer a spectacle to watch, then began to disperse.

Cheng Mingyue hurriedly concealed herself on her way home because she realized that along the way, people kept pointing fingers at her.

This unprecedented experience of humiliation made Cheng Mingyue only wish to go home, shut her gate, and not let anyone see her.

But before she reached home, she saw her close maid Xiao Tang.

Why is Xiao Tang out here?

A strange feeling arose in her heart, Xiao Tang saw her as if seeing a savior: "Miss, you finally returned!"

Cheng Mingyue had a vague sense of foreboding: "What happened?"

Tears welled in Xiao Tang’s eyes: "Our family’s gate, it’s been, been smashed!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Mingyue felt a surge of anger, the gate represents a residence’s facade, who bears such a grudge against the Cheng family?

"Who did it?"

Xiao Tang’s tone was evasive: "This maid... saw, there were many people."

Cheng Mingyue glanced briefly and said no more, rushing home.

From afar, she saw her smashed gate and many people surrounding it.

"Miss, don’t go there..." Xiao Tang anxiously tugged at her sleeve.

Feeling something amiss, Cheng Mingyue turned and asked: "What’s wrong?"

Xiao Tang bit her lip and said: "Those people came to give you trouble, this maid heard them cursing you..."

Cheng Mingyue felt stirred, "What are they cursing about?"

Xiao Tang’s tone grew more cautious: "They... curse you for betraying your master and ancestors... harboring ingratitude... pig, pig dog..."

The words thereafter, she dared not say.

Yet those few words were enough to strike Cheng Mingyue.

Her body swayed, unable to withstand the inner turmoil.

It’s over, it’s over.

At this moment, all Cheng Mingyue could feel was this.

She, Cheng Mingyue, in the Central Plains Martial World, this time is truly finished.
