Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness Chapter 160

Chapter 160: The Palace Master’s Utter Despair

“Release him, please, just let him go–!!!”

At this mont, inside Jade Fox Palace, Hu Qianzao voice broke out in panic. Her voice was so piercing, so full of guilt and helplessness.

The two immortals of Jade Fox Palace looked at each other, nodded silently, and then activated the spell to release Ye Xuan.

At this mont, they had no reason to hold him any longer. Not only did they have no reason to bind Ye Xuan, but they also had to consider how to deal with Qingxue’s fury.

Above Jade Fox Palace, the swirling protective formation slowly ceased, blending into the clouds and dissipating in the sky. The chains of spiritual energy binding Ye Xuan also retracted into the air, vanishing without a trace.

Watching his body regain freedom, Ye Xuan let out a slight sigh of relief.

The imdiate danger had passed, but, the situation was far from over.

Especially now, Qingxue and Yu Ling’er were infuriated on his behalf. If Jade Fox Palace did not provide a satisfactory explanation this ti, who knows what they might do in their anger.

There was no need for things to escalate further.

Next, it would depend on whether Jade Fox Palace, or more specifically, Hu Qianzao, understood the gravity of the situation. He just quietly observed Hu Qianzao, without saying a word. The people of Jade Fox Palace also remained silent, guiltily averting their eyes from Ye Xuan’s gaze, unable to et his look.

“Ye Xuan… I’m sorry, I’ve wronged you–!!!” Hu Qianzao approached Ye Xuan, her heart full of guilt, her face tear-streaked.

Thinking back to how arrogantly and confidently she had treated him, full of spite, and to realize, in the end, that it was all a misunderstanding on her part. She hadn’t even given him a chance to explain.

At this mont, she felt utterly ashad to face Ye Xuan. She knelt down in front of him, “I didn’t know… I really didn’t know… I… I deserve to die, kill –!”

As the dignified master of Jade Fox Palace, she should not have resorted to such actions. Even in death, she should not be kneeling before anyone, but now, she had broken down completely.

Her mind was flooded with mories of Ye Xuan in front of her, his words, his devotion to her. She didn’t know how else she could earn Ye Xuan’s forgiveness, but she had to try.

“I’m sorry, please forgive , kill if you must, whatever it takes, I truly am sorry… sob…”

“Palace Master, this should not be–!!!”

At this mont, the people of Jade Fox Palace exclaid in shock. They sought Ye Xuan’s punishnt over misunderstandings about future events, believing he harbored ill intentions towards Jade Fox Palace.

But Jade Fox Palace had never intended any harm to Ye Xuan personally; it was all due to a series of misunderstandings that painted him as an enemy. Now that the misunderstanding was cleared, it surely wasn’t necessary for Hu Qianzao to pay with her life for Ye Xuan.

After all, these events were supposed to happen in the future–!!!

“Palace Master, you…”

Although they had a hundred reasons to speak on behalf of Hu Qianzao, when the people of Jade Fox Palace tried to find words to defend her, they didn’t know how to start.

In their minds, they could only see Ye Xuan’s severed head, with tears still streaming from his eyes. Despite enduring imnse injustice and misunderstanding, he harbored no resentnt toward his own palace master. Was there even room for them to interject between Ye Xuan and their palace master?

“I’m sorry, so sorry, Brother Ye Xuan, it’s our fault, the palace master lost her senses because of us, and hated you to the bones. If you’re angry, hit , kill … but don’t kill the palace master, she’s innocent too—!!!”

While many from Jade Fox Palace were too embarrassed to speak, a small fox knelt before Ye Xuan, tears covering her face, pleading:

“Brother Ye Xuan, the palace master is innocent too, she wouldn’t have done these things if she knew the truth.”

Looking at the small fox, about ten years old, Ye Xuan, who was about to speak, suddenly held back. He actually had no plans to take any action against Jade Fox Palace.

After all, he wasn’t enduring all this just to be enemies with Jade Fox Palace. If he wanted, he could have simply portrayed himself as a true villain, untroubled and unhard, constantly harming others and then dying deservedly. But what would be the point of that?

For him, the past was just that—past. Everything he did was for the present.

He gently reached out, wiped the little fox’s face, and helped her up, saying, “Don’t worry, I have no mory of these things. These are events that will happen in the future, and to , they are just a spectacle I’ve witnessed.”

“Moreover, even if the future did experience these things, it was of my own volition, how could I take revenge on your palace master now? You don’t need to feel guilty, let’s end this matter today.”

“My husband—!!!” Hearing this, Qingxue couldn’t help but exclaim, “Have you forgotten? Just now the palace master said if she really misunderstood you, you could do as you please, now how can you…”

Regardless, Ye Xuan shouldn’t just let things slide so easily with Hu Qianzao. Having the palace master owe him a great favor could be beneficial for him.

However, Qingxue quickly realized sothing. Instead of being aggressive, it’s better to be generous and make Hu Qianzao owe Ye Xuan even more.

But being nice all the ti isn’t enough; soone needs to play the bad guy. Only then will they truly understand Ye Xuan’s kindness.

Thus, she brought up what Hu Qianzao had said earlier.

Yu Ling’er also spoke up, “When making her statent earlier, she was so definitive, so confident, and no matter how much I tried to convince her, she wouldn’t believe . Now, when the truth is out, she cos crying for forgiveness, as if it’s that easy—!”

Hearing Qingxue and Yu Ling’s words, Hu Qianzao felt both guilty and embarrassed. In her grief, she had forgotten how proud and confident she had been when she plotted against Ye Xuan.

And now?

Yu Ling’er had already predicted that she would end up crying and begging for Ye Xuan’s forgiveness. At the ti, Hu Qianzao didn’t believe it… but now she did. At this mont, Hu Qianzao felt so ashad that she almost couldn’t bear it, even harboring thoughts of suicide.

Thinking this, she raised her hand without hesitation and struck towards her own crown.

“—!!!”

No one expected this turn of events, and at that mont, everyone was shocked.

“Don’t—!!!”
