The original self did a lot of psychological preparation and had rehearsed thoroughly.
A clean break, each finding their own joy.
When fate ends and love disperses, one only hopes to preserve the most beautiful image of oneself in the heart of the beloved.
Over the years, everyone claid that she used Lord Changli’s na to wield power in the Wuwei Sect, quite formidable, but no one knew she had been suffering this entire ti.
With useless aptitude, nobody acknowledged her existence, and it was Changli’s indifference that struck her the most. She beca less and less like herself, wasting too much ti, suddenly realizing she had betrayed her parents’ earnest teachings from her childhood.
Fortunately, she repented in ti, sparing herself from falling deeper.
However, plans never keep up with changes. The unexpected ca so suddenly, and it was what caused her the most agony and regret.
That day, when Su Xuan took her away, he left a Communication Talisman with the Su Family.
If the Su Family faced trouble, they could ignite the Communication Talisman, and Su Xuan would know and rush over imdiately.
After all, the Su Family had the grace of recreating him.
Because the Communication Talisman was single-use, the Su Family would not use it unless absolutely necessary—when life and death hung in the balance.
On the day Su Xuan appeared in the city, many people knew the Su Family had produced an Immortal, and ordinary families wouldn’t consider offending a family with an Immortal.
The original self thought that at least in her lifeti, the Su Family would be safe.
But she didn’t expect the change to co so quickly.
It’s only been thirty years since she left ho, and her parents and family were all still there.
Though the Immortal Path was far, she tried many ways, expending great effort, to have disciples deliver several Life-saving Talismans to the Su Family.
With her ability, she couldn’t obtain high-level Life-saving Talismans herself, only the lowest level ones, but they were enough for the mortal world full of mortals.
Recently, she suddenly felt the Life-saving Talismans she sent to the Su Family turn into black ash.
Even though she couldn’t perform Energy Introduction, thanks to Su Xuan, she once had the fortune to obtain a Secret Technique allowing her to use a trace of her bloodline’s power.
Feeling the Life-saving Talismans turn into black ash, she coughed up a mouthful of Heart Blood, and a strand of white hair appeared among her black locks.
But she couldn’t care about any of that, hurriedly rushing to Su Xuan’s place in a panicked manner.
The Su Family must be in trouble, and Su Xuan should have also received the news, right?
But what made her incredulous was that she didn’t even get to see Su Xuan’s face before being stopped outside his cave dwelling by Leng Piaopiao.
The original self felt pitiful; the two who were once so close, now.....
"Move aside."
"I won’t. Don’t always co and disturb Master’s cultivation," Leng Piaopiao frowned, casting a disdainful glance at the original self.
When they were alone, Leng Piaopiao finally dropped her facade as a kind Little Fairy, showing her well-hidden hostility toward her nominal Master.
In a mont of realization, the original self saw in Leng Piaopiao’s eyes the hatred she had for her.
The kind she had seen most in the mortal world back ho, one woman’s hatred and resentnt toward another.
How could it be, how could it be like this? They were master and disciple... but after the shock and disbelief, it all made an expected sense.
But now, she couldn’t bother with all that; she just wanted to quickly see Su Xuan, to ask if he knew the Su Family was in trouble.
However, Leng Piaopiao would not budge, and when the original self tried to force her way through, she directly summoned her Lifebound Treasure.
Leng Piaopiao had excellent aptitude, and with Lord Changli as a powerful Master providing her with abundant resources, she had surpassed her peers in just twenty years and was now a Golden Core Cultivator.
Though her cultivation speed couldn’t match Lord Changli’s, in the entire Cultivation World, she was also worthy of being called a genius.
Everyone said she was worthy of being Lord Changli’s disciple, as impressive as him.
A Golden Core Cultivator in many small sects could start their own sect and recruit disciples.
Whereas the original self was just a good-for-nothing who couldn’t even perform Energy Introduction, there was simply no comparison between them.
The outco was foreseeable; the Golden Core Cultivator’s use of her Magical Treasure against a re mortal ant even Leng Piaopiao’s casual moves could severely injure the original self.
But she seed not to recognize this disparity, and seeing her nominal Master trying to force her way through, a fire-red whip lashed lightly at the opposition, effortlessly injuring the original self with great force.
By the ti Su Xuan noticed the commotion outside and appeared at the entrance of the cave, the original self was already on the verge of death, while Leng Piaopiao clutched her Master’s sleeve with a tearful face, her expression full of grievance, saying in a choked voice, "Master, I... I didn’t an to, it was just because Master’s wife she....."
The vague words evidently made Su Xuan misunderstand.
Connecting it with his wife’s drastic change in temperant, Su Xuan’s frown deepened as he comforted his little disciple, "Don’t worry, your Master’s wife will be fine."
The original self, holding back a mouthful of blood, forced herself to look towards the two, the large and small figures shadowed in the light, seeming so harmonious.
The original self saw that when Su Xuan said the words "Master’s wife," a flash of anger quickly crossed his little disciple’s eyes.
She bit her lip, twisting her fingers, gouging a glance at her from the corner unseen by others.
Truly ironic, she finally understood, the inexplicable dislike she had for this little disciple wasn’t just because her own husband treated her a thousand tis better, but also her female instincts had long ago sensed the improper feelings between this master and disciple.
She hadn’t been willing, nor dared, to think so before, which was why she hadn’t seen clearly for so long.
But now none of it was what she cared about, her main concern was.....
The original self, using all her strength, clenched Su Xuan’s tiger mouth with her hand just as he was about to co to hold her.
Leng Piaopiao scread in surprise, "Master...."
"It’s nothing..." Su Xuan stopped the young disciple from stepping forward, turning to look at his wife, "Your injuries should be treated imdiately, whatever needs to be said can wait."
After saying so, Su Xuan hesitated for a mont, but still explained, "Piaopiao... She didn’t an it, she was just a bit too anxious, don’t bla her."
Despite their many years together, although Su Xuan’s tone was calm, revealing no emotion, the original self could sense a hint of softness in his otherwise cold voice.
"Pu...." The attack on the original self’s inner strength caused her to spit out a mouthful of Heart Blood, her countenance mournful as she drove her fingers into Su Xuan’s flesh.
Soon, several dark blue finger marks appeared; one could imagine the force she used.
If only she had the strength, she would have slapped his face, yelling aloud, "You are truly shaless."
