Chapter 374


    Su Xuanye immediately turned around and saw Su Tingxue’s ghost.


    She was standing less than a meter away from him, close enough to reach out. Su Xuanye reached out


    his right hand to touch her, but his hand passed through her cheek.


    “Ah!” Realizing that the person in front of him was only a ghost without a physical body, Su Xuanye


    suddenly came to a realization.


    Su Xuanye stared at his finger and then at the woman in front of him. He shook his head in


    disappointment. “I actually forgot that you were long gone.”


    Su Tingxue’s eyes looked sullen. When she saw Su Xuanye’s sad look, she couldn’t tell if this man was


    pretending or sincerely feeling sorry for her.


    Thinking back to the anguish of being imprisoned in the ck Dome for the past six hundred years,


    she immediately regained her rationality.


    This man was heartless.


    “Su Xuanye, there’s no one else here. Why are you putting on an act?”


    Her words stunned Su Xuanye. “Mentor, are you ming me?”


    “Shouldn’t I me you?” Su Tingxue sneered. “Others don’t know the truth about what happened six


    hundred years ago, but how can I not know?”


    Su Tingxue approached Su Xuanye step by step and said, “Tell me, if the world finds out that the Saint


    Xuan Ye they admire is actually a man who is unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals and even


    uses a woman’s sincere feelings, what will they think of you?”


    Su Xuanye was speechless.


    He was the one who had let Su Tingxue down. He couldn’t quibble with her. “Mentor, your ghost


    refused to disperse. You cried on Kui Mountain day and night just to entice me to see you?”


    Su Xuanye stared at the beautiful face in front of him. He thought of how Su Tingxue protected and


    doted on him when she was alive, and tears gradually appeared in his pitiful eyes.


    He seemed to still be the young man who would chase after Su Tingxue and address her as his


    mentor.


    Su Tingxue’s heart ached and she turned around. She was unwilling to look at Su Xuanye.


    This person was an expert at acting. She couldn’t win against him!


    “My ghost refused to disperse because I still have questions that I haven’t understood. Su Xuanye, I’ll


    ask you a few questions. Answer them truthfully!”


    Su Xuanye nodded slightly. “Mentor, please ask.”


    “The first question is, did you learn the method to make the Spirit Restraining Parasite from me and


    secretly nt the Spirit Restraining Parasite on the entire Su family?”


    Su Xuanye had long expected Su Tingxue to ask about this, so he wasn’t surprised at all.


    “It was me.”


    Su Tingxue could still feel the pain of betrayal when she heard Su Xuanye admit it.


    “The second question.” Su Tingxue gritted her teeth and asked him, “Why did you do that to me?! You


    were the one who nted the Spirit Restraining Parasite for the Su family. Why did you frame me?!”


    Su Xuanye clenched his fists. This time, he didn’t have the nerve to admit it.


    “Say something, Su Xuanye!” Su Tingxue’s resentment suddenly increased. Waves of resentment


    spread out from her body like a ck fog and blocked the moonlight above their heads.


    Su Xuanye looked at the grievous energy beside him and sorrow shed across his eyes.


    It was him who caused her to be condemned by everyone and turn into a vengeful ghost after she died.


    Su Xuanye closed his eyes and sighed before saying, “Mentor, I’ve let you down. In my next life, I’m


    willing to be your ve.”


    “Be my ve? Are you worthy?” Su Tingxueughed self-deprecatingly. “In my next life, I wish I never


    meet you again!”


    Su Xuanye looked at her sadly and said, “…Alright.”


    “You haven’t told me why you framed me! What have I done to you?! As your mentor, I taught you


    everything! As a woman, I gave you everything I had! Su Xuanye, how did I let you down? How dare


    you harm me like this?!”


    Su Xuanye felt immense anguish when he heard Su Tingxue’s question.


    “You didn’t let me down. I let you down.” Su Xuanye straightened his neck with tears in his eyes. He


    said, “Mentor, there was hatred in my heart that I couldn’t let go of. My obsession was too deep. I hurt


    you too deeply.”


    “Then tell me clearly why you did that to me!” Su Tingxue suddenly burst into tears when she recalled


    the incident six hundred years ago.


    She said, “I remember clearly that day, you left the hut and said that you were going back to the Su


    family to report our rtionship to your father. You said that you wereing back to marry me! I


    believed it and even went to the tailor shop at the foot of the mountain to buy silk home to sew the


    wedding dress.”


    Hearing this, Su Xuanye couldn’t help but close his eyes in anguish.


    Su Tingxue’s voice rang non-stop. “During those days, I sat in the bamboo house sewing the wedding


    dress all day. I was delighted when you came back to marry me! In the end, you brought the Patriarchs


    of the six families to surround me!”


    “You brought them to raid my home and ruin my wedding dress! They even cut off my head in public!”


    “Su Xuanye, how can someone like you be a Saint?!”


    “I really regret saving you from the mouth of a demon beast back then! I should have let you get killed


    and eaten by the demon beast!” Her kindness brought about a fatal disaster for herself.


    “Mentor, I’m sorry…”


    The unforeseen event from six hundred years ago felt like it happened yesterday.


    That day, Su Xuanye led the six families to surround Su Tingxue. The others were lying in ambush


    around the bamboo house, but he pretended like everything was fine and pushed open the door of the


    bamboo house.


    Su Xuanye pushed open the bamboo door and saw the red wedding dress on the wall. A hint of


    hesitation and unwillingness shed across his eyes.


    Seeing that he was back, Su Tingxue smiled and raised the cover that was about to bepleted. She


    asked him, “Ah Ye, what do you think of my cover?”


    Su Xuanye stared at the two cute little mandarin ducks on the red veil, and his heart ached. At that


    moment, he almost softened, but the scene of his mother being dismembered appeared in his mind


    again.


    He couldn’t forget his mother, who had died a tragic death!


    He couldn’t let go of the hatred in his heart!


    Su Tingxue saw Su Xuanye’s hideous expression and thought that he had been insulted by Patriarch


    Su when he returned to the Su family.


    She hurriedly put down the red veil and stood up to ask Su Xuanye worriedly, “Ah Ye, did your father


    scold you again?” Su Tingxue saw that Su Xuanye’s eyes were filled with tears and wanted to help him


    wipe them away.


    Before her hand could touch Su Xuanye, Su Xuanye pushed her away forcefully. Her body flew


    backward and smashed into the wedding dress on the wall of the bamboo house before she fell into the


    corner.


    The mouthful of blood that spurted out of her mouth dyed the golden silk embroidery on the wedding


    dress red.


    Su Tingxue wasn’t guarded against her lover at all. Su Xuanye’s palm shattered Su Tingxue’s heart. Su


    Tingxue pressed her broken heart and stared at Su Xuanye in disbelief. She couldn’t understand why


    Su Xuanye would treat her like this.


    “Ah Ye…”


    Su Xuanye stood outside the bamboo house and pointed at Su Tingxue with a trembling index finger.


    With tears in his eyes, he scolded Su Tingxue, “Su Tingxue, I treated you as my mentor and my most


    important person! I respect you and love you. Why did you treat me like this?!”


    Su Tingxue was confused and in pain. She asked Su Xuanye, “What did I do?”


    “Su Tingxue, let me ask you, was it you who nted the Spirit Restraining Parasite in the Su n and


    caused no one in the Su n to awaken their beast form?!”


    Su Tingxue was confused. “What are you talking about…”


    “Your library contains the cultivation method of Spirit Restraining Parasite. I saw it by ident before.


    Do you still want to deny it?!”


    Su Xuanye looked at Su Tingxue with bloodshot eyes and shouted outside, “Sorry to trouble you guys!”


    Immediately after, the n leaders of the six great ns appeared outside the bamboo house with a


    group of subordinates. They went straight to the library and quickly found the cultivation method for


    Spirit Restraining Parasite.

    “Su Tingxue, the evidence is conclusive. Do you still want to quibble?!”


    “Su Tingxue, even if the Su family was harsh to you back then, you don’t have to be so heartless!”


    “They even said that Purifying Spirit Mentors are kind and benevolent people. In my opinion, they’re all


    evil!”


    “Su Tingxue, you’ve harmed the Su family. You can only pay with your life!”


    At the same time, the victims of the Su family of Kui Mountain also rushed up. Some of them held


    swords, while others held hoes. They stood outside the bamboo house and denounced her with great


    momentum—


    “Kill Su Tingxue and avenge us!”


    “She harmed the entire Su family of Kui Mountain. She must die to atone for her crimes!”


    “If Su Tingxue doesn’t die, the Su family won’t give up!”
