Wu Yunxiao didn’t give it much thought and nodded. "That’s a given. Is there any doubt? Those Cultivators from the Great Xia Royal Family’s Fan generation—is a single one of them not an opportunistic scoundrel? In that case, it was a good kill, a satisfying one! You could say you owe the Tianling Divine Son of our race a favor!"
Wu Yunxiao was a blunt man who spoke his mind, but what he said was quite reasonable.
Upon hearing this, the others couldn’t help but look at each other strangely.
’After soone humiliates and kills your cultivation partner, you’re supposed to be eternally grateful?’
Kong Lindao shook his head. "Let’s not speak of it. It’s a stain on my na, after all. Alright, Tianling Divine Son, I will now condense my Divine Blood for you—don’t refuse. Consider it a sign of respect for , and also... a chance for my sister."
Kong Lindao’s tone was utterly sincere.
Ye Tianling took a long, hard look at Kong Lindao and Ye Tianxi. "Ye Tianxi, you have a fine brother!"
Ye Tianxi gave a bitter smile and sighed. "I actually have two fine brothers. It’s just... I foolishly gave up on the other one. Brother Tianling, I’m sorry. I was wrong. Before... I did use certain ans to fra i’Er and Yun Zhiruo..."
Ye Tianxi’s heart was shaken, and she was deeply moved by Kong Lindao’s willingness to offer his Origin Essence Blood.
And so, she dropped to her knees, kowtowing in sincere apology. Then, she recounted everything that had happened in painstaking detail.
"...Later, i’Er suddenly beca incredibly powerful. Using the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden technique, she counter-attacked, nearly killing and severely wounding Long Fengyang. We fled deep into the Ancestral Dragon Abyss. At the ti, we didn’t know that i’Er had actually deliberately let us escape so she could enter the depths of the Ancestral Dragon Abyss to save your parents..."
"After entering the seventeenth level of the Ancestral Dragon Abyss, I discovered a fortuitous opportunity, but i’Er suddenly attacked . She knocked into a void rift, but I was saved by the Peacock King, whose spirit just so happened to be roaming the world at that mont."
"Long Fengyang... if he’s not dead, he’s crippled for life. With i’Er’s strength, she’ll definitely be fine. However, the eighteenth level of the Ancestral Dragon Abyss has now beco extrely treacherous..."
Ye Tianxi explained everything in exhaustive detail. Afterward, she looked quietly at Ye Tianling, her eyes finally showing a look of remorse.
’It wasn’t a question of whether she could defeat him. Rather—ever since she learned that not even the Celestial Dao could obliterate Ye Tianling, she realized that making an enemy of such a heaven-defying, terrifying existence would bring her no good end!’
Furthermore, back then, witnessing her younger sister’s death had been a trendous shock. With her own strength being so weak at the ti, her mind had been overwheld. She couldn’t control the rampaging Immortal Phoenix Divine Blood within her, and with her mind invaded by a Demon Soul, she had descended into a state of madness, akin to Entering Demon.
Now that she was completely clear-headed and in control of her power, she finally realized that many of the things she had done were, in fact, wrong.
Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent had been active the entire ti. Because of their shared bloodline, he could clearly sense the state of Ye Tianxi’s heart—it was simple and sincere, yet also filled with regret.
"Originally, even with Brother Lindao pleading for you, I could still take your life, especially since he lost this battle. You know I’ve shown rcy in the past, and it led to many tragedies. I’ve warned myself that for those who make themselves my enemy, I will use every ans possible to exterminate their entire clan, eradicating them root and stem. I will never make that mistake again."
"But, considering your youth, and the fact that you are my kinswoman... And since I do bear so responsibility for Ye Tianyun’s tragic death, while you were in the throes of a Demon Heart... let this matter end here."
"I don’t want this act of rcy to beco sothing I regret in the future—so, I hope you can earn the forgiveness of i’Er and Yun Zhiruo."
Ye Tianling had still not intended to let Ye Tianxi off. But as she recounted the events of the past, a single, bloody tear trickled from her eye.
That tear was shed for Ye Tianyun.
It was hard to imagine that even after reawakening the noble bloodline of the Immortal Phoenix Peacock Lineage, she still cherished the bond with her younger sister so deeply.
The deeper the love, the sharper the hate.
Just imagine, for a person who held such deep familial love, what kind of madness would have seized her upon personally witnessing her young sister being murdered, her body defiled, and then nailed to the gates of the Ye Race.
With his Soul Talent active, Ye Tianling felt her pain as if it were his own. He was so deeply affected that he was almost swept away by her hatred and soul-searing rage.
In the end, he relented.
"Brother Tianling, I’m sorry."
Ye Tianxi bit her lip but raised her head stubbornly. "I’m willing to do anything. Brother Tianling, is there a way... so kind of Ti Origin Tracing thod to save my sister? Or summoning her shattered Soul Power, or... or any other way. Since I have the Immortal Phoenix Bloodline, couldn’t she have had it too? Can’t she undergo the Nirvana Nine Transformations, a Baptism of Fire?"
As Ye Tianxi recalled the past, she was overco by a profound sadness.
Ye Tianling shook his head. "There’s no hope. For anyone devoured by Ye Cangqian’s Heaven-Devouring Taotie technique, there is no hope."
Ye Tianxi said, "No, my sister wasn’t devoured, but..."
As Ye Tianxi spoke, her face suddenly went deathly pale, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The blood pooled on the ground and burst into a raging Nirvana Fla.
This was a mouthful of her Lifebound Essence Blood.
Ye Tianling said, "If she was incinerated into ash by the Nirvana Fire, there is no hope either."
Kong Lindao interjected, "There is hope! If she had the Immortal Phoenix Bloodline, then there is definitely hope. But I only know that you are my sister and that you entered a Small World to comprehend the Heart of Myriad Phenona and Red Dust. How could that sister of yours have the Immortal Phoenix Bloodline? Besides, the Laws of a Small World have loopholes. In a completely new World, if you beco strong enough and possess just one drop of your sister Ye Tianyun’s blood, you could summon her back in the future."
"But did you manage to save any of her blood?"
Ye Tianling gave Kong Lindao a deep look but didn’t expose the cruel truth of the matter.
’Blood?’
’Even if they had it.’
’Even if she could be reborn from a drop of blood.’
’How could the reborn Ye Tianyun possibly be the sa Ye Tianyun from the past?’
’Unless Ye Tianyun possessed the Returning Butterfly Bloodline or the Immortal Phoenix Peacock Bloodline, it would be impossible for her to have survived the Nirvana Fire.’
’And if she had been able to survive, to achieve Nirvana Rebirth, a Phenonon would surely have manifested at the ti.’
’But back then, there was nothing.’
"No... there’s no blood of my sister left. It was ... I used the Nirvana Fire to burn everything away. I destroyed my sister’s only hope."
Ye Tianxi was filled with imnse self-loathing, and tears began STREAMING down her face.
This young woman’s personality was obsessive and extre, but she was also soone who felt emotions with incredible depth.
Ye Tianling sighed, filled with a mix of emotions.
"It’s better that she’s dead, really," Kong Lindao said, enunciating each word. "After what she went through, even if she had lived, it would have been nothing but torture. That Ye Cangqian—he’s the main culprit. He’s the one who should be killed. Did you kill him?"
