Above Night Frost Demon Monarch's head was an upside-down cup-shaped Dharma treasure. It emitted a black light that enveloped her.
Under the black light, Night Frost Demon Lord was unable to move. The hand holding the pill bottle was tilted.
Hong Xiao dazedly looked at the two people in front of her and suddenly shouted with all her might, "Gongzi, what are you doing?!"
Sky Xuan's gaze was heavy. He didn't even look at Hong Xiao. He stretched out his silver fake hand and slapped Night Frost Demon Monarch's back several times.
Unable to move, Night Frost Demon Lord could only endure it. After the final palm strike, the demonic aura in her body choked, and her cultivation was sealed just like that.
Mo Tiange's group of four was dumbstruck as they watched this scene unfold. They previously thought of all kinds of possibilities, but they never expected there would be such a change!
"What is he doing?" Mo Tiange asked in a low voice.
Being in the sacrificial temple, the Breath of the White Tiger had a suppressive effect on the Devil Qi. Moreover, there were ghost cultivators surrounding him like an iron bucket. Even if he had extraordinary magical powers, how would he be able to break through?
Just now, the three of them had traveled together and returned with serious injuries.
Under such circumstances, he still attacked Demon Lord Nightfrost. Did he really want to be trapped here forever?
Moreover, they were not only master and disciple, but also lovers.
Qin Xi shook his head and didn't answer.
"Why?" Fiend Lord Nightfrost asked softly after a while.
She tried to control her emotions, but her voice still trembled.
"Because I hate you!" Tianxuan said word by word.
Many emotions flashed across his face. One moment he was in love, the next moment he was angry, the next moment he was lost, the next moment he was sad.
"Hate … me …" Demon Lord Nightfrost repeated with a blank expression.
"Young master!" Hong Xiao shouted sternly, "When has the City Lord wronged you?
Without a City Lord, why are you here with your cultivation?! "
Tian Xuan stared at Hong Xiao and sneered, "That's right, she didn't let me down, but so what?
What does it have to do with me hating her? "
Hong Xiao was stunned. "You …" She didn't understand. Since he didn't apologize, why did he hate her?
She had a pure mind. Although she was a maid, she had never suffered the slightest bit, so she did not know the complexity of people's hearts.
"I hate you." Tianxuan looked indifferent. "Why did you bring me back?
I hate you. Why are you with me?
I hate you! Why can't you forget Ye Sha?! "
When he said the last sentence, his eyes were filled with rage and intense hatred.
Ye Sha?
Mo Tiange's curiosity was piqued when she heard this name.
What did Ye Sha have to do with Ye Shuang?
Could it be...
"Ye Sha," Nightfrost Fiend Lord said. "Ye Sha is you. Why must you …"
"I'm not Ye Sha!"
Tian Xuan was furious. His pale blue face was undulating. After taking a deep breath, he said calmly, "I have long lost the memory of my previous life. What does Ye Sha have to do with me?"
He sneered, "You think I'm Ye Sha, but have you ever thought that I don't want to be Ye Sha?"
Night Frost Demon Monarch closed his eyes and shook his head. "I didn't expect …"
"Of course you wouldn't expect it," Tian Xuan looked at her coldly. This Devil Cultivator of the Late Yuan Dynasty, one of the three Devil Monarchs in Yunzhong, looked so weak from the back. "You found me on your own accord, accepted me as your disciple, and treated me as Ye Sha. Do you think I would be grateful to you?"
"In that case, your feelings are all fake …"
"No." Tian Xuan stared at her back. Tenderness flashed across his eyes. "Everything I said to you was true. It has always been true … But you only have Ye Sha in your heart. You only treat me as Ye Sha …"
His voice was so sad, as if the betrayer was Nightfrost Demon Monarch and not him.
"Just because of this?" Nightfrost Demon Monarch couldn't help but laugh. "Just because of this, you want to kill me?"
Tian Xuan didn't answer. He said indifferently, "You are one of the three Devil Monarchs. You control Night Owl City. You are one of the top cultivators in Yunzhong. You are too amazing.
You treat me as Ye Sha and keep me by your side. I can only be Ye Sha and be your pet. What do the people in the City Lord Manor think of me?
What do the cultivators in Yunzhong think of me?
They are very respectful in front of me, but they whisper behind my back.
Just like what Hong Xiao said, without you, how can I achieve my cultivation?
That's what everyone thinks. They treat me as your male pet! "
"So what?"
His gaze landed on the void. Nightfrost Demon Monarch said softly, "I know I'm not. You know I'm not. Isn't that enough?"
"It's not you. Of course you don't know how painful this feeling is!" Tian Xuan shouted.
Nightfrost Demon Monarch shut his mouth tightly and didn't say a word.
"I love you," he said. His pale blue face was warm, but it slowly turned cold. "But I'm not Ye Sha. I can't stand you thinking of Ye Sha when you look at me!"
He continued, "From the beginning to the end, the person you love is only Ye Sha.
Ye Sha is dead. You tried your best to find his reincarnation. You can't stand Ye Sha leaving you.
After a few hundred years, you found me and brought me back to Night Owl City. You worked hard for the mutant blood in my body … Whatever Ye Sha likes, you make me do it. Whatever Ye Sha hates, you never let me see … But I don't have the memories of my previous life. I might not like what he likes, and I might not hate what he hates.
I'm completely different from Ye Sha, but you ignore me!
I want you to really look at me, not Ye Sha, but me … "
After a long silence, Nightfrost Demon Monarch finally said, "When did you start to want to kill me?"
Tian Xuan showed a bitter smile. "Before this, I couldn't make up my mind. Just now, as luck would have it …"
Nightfrost Demon Monarch said sadly, "You wanted to kill me for a long time. Otherwise, you would have let me know you have this kind of magic weapon."
"…" After a moment of silence, Tian Xuan said, "Maybe."
"Do you have anything else to say?" The truth was in front of him, but Nightfrost Demon Monarch calmed down.
Tian Xuan's expression was complicated. In the end, he shook his head. "No."
"Then let's do it," Nightfrost Demon Monarch said faintly. "You'll be more confident if you go alone."
Tian Xuan clenched his teeth and slowly raised his silver fake hand.
* * *
"That's strange. He killed Nightfrost Demon Monarch. Isn't he afraid of being killed by us alone?" Jing Xingzhi said.
Qin Xi said, "I fought him before. He has a strange divine ability. His body can turn into invisible devil aura, so he's not afraid of being hurt."
Nie Wushang's eyes brightened. "There's actually such a divine ability?"
"Yes, he can't beat me, but I also can't hurt him."
Seeing Tian Xuan slowly raising his hand, Hong Xiao suddenly pounced on him. The double-edged dagger in her hand spun quickly and ruthlessly stabbed at Tian Xuan.
Tian Xuan's eyes turned cold. Hong Xiao had just jumped when he waved his fake hand and ruthlessly slapped her head, smashing her Nascent Soul.
Mo Tiange felt a chill in her heart.
This Tian Xuan seemed to like this kind of method very much. Huo Ziqi and Zong Si's corpses were also crushed like this. Even their Nascent Souls were crushed without leaving anything behind.
"Red Silk!" Demon Lord Night Frost was alarmed when he saw this scene.
Hong Xiao screamed. The light in her eyes disappeared, and she fell to the ground, no longer breathing.
Looking at Hong Xiao's bleeding corpse, Nightfrost Demon Monarch was stunned. It took her a long time to regain her composure.
Tian Xuan said indifferently, "I didn't expect she'd be willing to risk her life for you. I underestimated her."
Nightfrost Demon Monarch smiled sadly. "It turns out I'm not a failure after all. Someone's willing to die for me."
She then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She suddenly threw the pill bottle in her hand and made a hand seal. A devil aura appeared behind her and shook Tian Xuan away.
"You …" Tian Xuan was shaken and took several steps back. He stared at her in shock.
Nightfrost Demon Monarch slowly turned around and stared at him fixedly.
"You … You weren't immobilized?"
Nightfrost Demon Monarch stretched out her hand, and the goblet magic weapon fell into her hand.
She looked at it and sighed. "The Illusory Immobilization Goblet. It turns out it fell into your hands, but you never told me."
Then she looked at him and said faintly, "You underestimate Late Nascent Realm cultivators. This goblet is indeed a rare treasure, but it's still not enough to immobilize a Late Nascent Realm cultivator."
Tian Xuan was silent for a while and asked, "Are you going to kill me?"
Nightfrost Demon Monarch didn't answer. She said, "You said I ignored your wish, but why didn't you tell me you weren't willing?
Was it because I didn't want to listen, or was it because you didn't dare to tell me? "
Tian Xuan didn't answer.
Nightfrost Demon Monarch continued, "That's right. I've always thought of you as Ye Sha because you're indeed Ye Sha's reincarnation. If you didn't want to be Ye Sha, you could have told me directly, but you never did."
She let out a long sigh, and sadness finally appeared in her eyes. "I finally know that you're not Ye Sha.
Ye Sha never felt inferior. He's magnanimous and only asks for himself. He doesn't care about other people's rumors. "
"I …" He wanted to say that he didn't feel inferior, but he couldn't say it under Nightfrost Demon Monarch's clear gaze.
"I'm sorry," she said softly, "I made you do something you don't like."
"…"
"Back then, I made a promise with Ye Sha. If one of us died first, we'd find the other's reincarnation. We'd be together forever."
She smiled sadly, and tears welled up in her eyes. "I did as I promised. I thought we'd fulfill our vow and be together forever.
Only now do I realize that I was wrong. Our vow was like a castle in the air. It could never be fulfilled. "
Tian Xuan was silent. This was something he didn't know.
"I found you and saw that you still loved me, so I thought it could be done.
But I didn't know that after you reincarnated and forgot the memories of your previous life, you'd become someone else.
Since you're not Ye Sha, how can I ask you to continue the vow from your previous life? "
"I …" He wanted to say that he really wasn't Ye Sha, but he felt a dull pain in his heart.
Was he really not him in his previous life?
Nightfrost Demon Monarch took a deep breath and said, "Let's end our vow. From now on, you're you, and I'm me."
The purple ribbon rose and turned into a purple light, stabbing into Tian Xuan's head like lightning.
Tian Xuan's eyes widened in shock as he stared at her.
"Hong Xiao followed me for hundreds of years, and she died for me. I can't not avenge her."
Looking at his unwilling eyes, a tear rolled down her cheek. She said softly, "You won't meet me in your next life."
