Inside the clinic, the silence was so profound that you could almost hear a pin drop.
Murong Ziyue looked at the dagger in her hand, her hand trembling slightly.
With a clang, the dagger fell to the ground.
Master Mo sighed, turned around and walked out of the clinic, closing the door.
"Oh, God, you’ve destroyed one, must you destroy another?"
Master Mo muttered to herself, her voice so soft only she could hear.
Inside, Murong Ziyue began to cry, tears falling like broken strings of pearls.
This was the first ti she cried since the incident.
Or rather, the only ti since childhood she openly expressed her emotions, crying without restraint.
"What should I do? I feel worse than death, yet cannot die. My mother, she has no ans to protect herself; she cannot go to Xiliao. But now, I don’t even have the strength to protect myself, how can I defy Fengdong?"
"Ziyue, you must realize, a dagger can be used for self-harm, but it can also wound others. Turn it in the direction of those who have hurt you. Do you not wish to avenge yourself against those from Star Academy, to... wipe away the sha of those scars on your back?"
Xin Lin gazed at Murong Ziyue intently.
At the ntion of the scars on her back, Murong Ziyue paused slightly.
She looked up at Xin Lin.
"But I have no way. I once had a Heavenly Vein; I worked tirelessly day and night, just to change my fate. But now, I don’t have the right to say that anymore."
Murong Ziyue smiled bitterly.
Xin Lin grabbed her hand and placed it on her own wrist.
She started to channel her spiritual power, the Earth Water Vein and the Heavenly Fire Vein, the surging Water Spirit and Fire Spirit, flowed within Xin Lin’s body.
"This?"
Although Murong Ziyue’s veins were wasted, her ability to perceive was not.
She was slightly shocked.
"You must be wondering, wasn’t I supposed to have the Five ridians wasted? I used to be a person without the Five ridians, but now I have two spirit veins. You should understand what I an."
The fact that Xin Lin has two spirit veins was sothing she never shared with anyone except Pride Corpse.
This ti, she wouldn’t have revealed it if not for Murong Ziyue’s misfortune.
Because she knew, these two spirit veins were just the beginning.
With the Heaven-defying Book, or rather, with the help from Pride Corpse, there’s a high chance she might obtain other spirit veins in the future.
Murong Ziyue was montarily unable to comprehend.
"That ans, there must be thods in the world to regenerate wasted veins. I will help you reconnect your Liver ridian in the coming days."
Xin Lin promised.
She hadn’t taken action yet, considering she had never done ridian continuation before, planning to practice on a few people first.
"But, I’m still missing one vein, during the End of Year Assessnt, I won’t be able to match those students from the A and B Class Academy."
Murong Ziyue smiled bitterly.
Even if she restored one vein, with her current aptitude, she feared she wouldn’t be able to stay in Qingtian Academy nor convince Fengdong to let her remain in Longteng.
Xiliao won’t be easy to handle either.
That idiot prince, the family background is very strong.
If not for a sufficiently tempting offer, Fengdong wouldn’t bother and risk offending Xiliao.
"Until the very end, nothing is for certain. I know of a thod that could allow you to regain the Heart ridian, but unless absolutely necessary, it can’t be used, nor is it easy to find a suitable candidate."
Xin Lin pondered for a mont, then whispered a few words beside Murong Ziyue’s ear.
After hearing, Murong Ziyue’s expression changed.
"Wouldn’t that be too cruel?"
