"A few years ago, I sensed you had arrived... but then I found out you still ca with that Great Demoness, Mu Hongyuan?"
"What do you an?"
Miss You raised her head, looked at Wang Mu, and instantly suppressed his Infinite Demon Body with just a few punches.
"..." Wang Mu.
Let's not bring up old matters... That was so long ago... Oh, wait, it was just a few years ago. Never mind then.
Wang Mu opened his mouth, about to explain that he was just a re Golden Core cultivator at the ti. Facing the Great Demoness, what could he possibly do?
I had no choice either.
However, before he could speak, Miss You snorted and interjected, "You don't need to explain. I know."
"It must have been that Great Demoness, relying on her superior strength, who threatened you into coming, right?"
"Brother Mu, you were forced. I don't bla you."
"?" Wang Mu.
This... I don't even need to explain?
Wang Mu was stunned, montarily speechless.
"Seeing your expression, I knew that's what you were going to say!" Miss You said, watching Wang Mu. She then pushed him away sharply and glared at him fiercely.
"..." Wang Mu.
I was careless.
Miss You is smart.
"Brother Mu, you've disappointed so much..." Miss You wiped a tear from the corner of her eye.
"I..." Wang Mu's lips moved. "That... Mu Hongyuan..."
"No need to explain about her." Miss You turned away, showing Wang Mu only her beautiful back.
It was as if she were a completely different person from the girl who had just been snuggling in his arms, freely expressing her emotions.
"What disappoints ..." Miss You said softly, "is that you don't even take yourself seriously, and you don't have in your heart at all. This has nothing to do with Mu Hongyuan..."
What does she an by that? Wang Mu wondered. Wait... could it be...
"A little over two years ago, when Yan Sword Immortal was undergoing her Crossing Tribulation..." Miss You's voice grew fainter. "Initially, she succeeded."
"From what I know of her, for her to succeed in her Crossing Tribulation..."
Her voice trailed off, and she stopped walking. "The only way was to sever you, her Heart Demon. Because she cultivated by severing feelings. Although she advanced rapidly back then, after her Ascension, her Great Taoist path was flawed. If she didn't sever you, she couldn't have ascended and attained the Great Tao."
"But for her to succeed in her Crossing Tribulation... there's only one possibility: she killed you."
"And you knew this. I had already told you."
"Yet you still returned to the Sword Sect, willingly sacrificing yourself for her to pass her tribulation."
"You didn't even care about your own life, let alone ."
Miss You is too perceptive, Wang Mu thought.
Though, her assumptions are a bit off from what actually happened...
At the ti, I really hadn't thought that far ahead.
In a way, when I left Bi You Palace, I promised to cultivate diligently and lift her curse.
And yet...
I ended up dying because of another woman, and voluntarily at that...
If I were Bi You, I would be deeply disappointed too.
"That..."
"Don't tell you were forced," Miss You continued. "Even though Yan Sword Immortal cultivated by severing feelings, she wasn't the type of person who absolutely had to kill you to achieve her Dao. If you hadn't been at the Sword Sect, even if she had to face the Heavenly Tribulation head-on and perish, she wouldn't have actually hunted you to the ends of the earth just to kill you."
"You must have gone there on your own..."
Actually... not really...
Wang Mu sighed.
Indeed, what Miss You said was quite right.
These won knew each other far too well.
It couldn't be helped; so had been rivals for hundreds of years. How could they not understand one another?
When the Heavenly Tribulation arrived, Heroine Yan actually told to leave.
And though I wanted to help Heroine Yan at the ti, I wasn't foolish enough to get myself killed.
So, I ran deep into the Sword Sect Holy Land, hoping to find a solution using that Heavenly Revelation Secret Treasure.
Who could have guessed that the Heavenly Revelation Secret Treasure was actually the Sky-cutting Sword? Once activated, it shot out and flew straight into the Heavenly Tribulation.
By then, it was too late to escape.
There was no way out. Since I was going to die anyway, I figured I might as well make it count by helping her pass her tribulation. At least it would be a worthy death...
What I told Heroine Yan at the ti was, 'You will achieve fulfillnt, and I will find release.'
That was the gist of it.
Initially, I truly hadn't planned to sacrifice myself to help her; at most, I just wanted to find a solution...
It was all due to circumstances beyond my control.
It's understandable that Miss You wouldn't grasp the complex details of what happened and would think this way.
"Actually..."
Wang Mu thought for a mont. "I did it for you too."
Miss You started, completely baffled by his words.
"Whether it's the curse you're suffering from or Yan Sword Immortal's Heart Demon... essentially, I am the root cause of it all."
Wang Mu continued, "I helped her through the tribulation because I wanted to see if I could succeed. If I did, it would prove that I could definitely help you lift your curse later. If I couldn't help her through the tribulation, it would an..."
"I couldn't possibly help you lift your curse either."
"And if I couldn't help you lift your curse, then there would be no aning in living."
Miss You paused, then fell silent.
"Besides... actually, I didn't initially intend to use myself to help her through her tribulation; I was forced by the circumstances." Wang Mu then briefly recounted what had happened.
Of course, he skipped over the part about practicing the Love and Affection Dual Swords with Heroine Yan at the Dan King Sect.
He omitted that entire year's experiences.
After listening, Miss You fell into deep thought.
"Is that really so?" Miss You turned around and asked.
Seeing this, Wang Mu knew her anger must have subsided considerably.
"Were you doing it on purpose?" Miss You asked.
Wang Mu was surprised. "What do you an by that?"
"Hmph." Miss You pointed at Wang Mu. "Do you think I can't tell? Your primal essence is broken; you must have engaged in Dual Cultivation with soone... You wanted to Dual Cultivate with Demoness Mu, but you couldn't withstand her Emotion Poison."
