Duan Qiongâs looked at Xiao Ya with eyes that carried a deep pain.
He had even forgotten about Feng Ruqing wanting to destroy the Duan family as his gaze was fixed upon the cold woman in front of him.
âYaâer.... Can you please donât leave me?â
Xiao Ya looked at Duan Qiong coldly. She was only willing to spare his life because of his kindness back then. Moreover, she knew that it was not Duan Qiong who was hunting her.
When she decided to leave back then, she had made a promise to herself that she would never come back again!
âYou donât have to beg Xiao Ya. Some things, once lost, can never be regained! Xiao Ya, youâre not feeling well. Iâll let Little Soul send you back first. Iâll take care of the rest.â
Xiao Ya nodded firmly.
She did not take a glance at the familiar courtyard behind her, much less at those familiar people...
âNo!â
Duan Qiong panicked and got up, chasing after Xiao Ya. âYaâer, you canât leave. Please donât leave me. Please!â
Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes as he was filled with grief.
This time, it was different from before.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Twenty years ago, Yaâer had left the Duan family, but he believed that he could always bring her back.
However, this time...
If Yaâer left, he might never see her again.
Xiao Ya did not stop. She was still a little weak and could not even stand properly, needing the black sword on the side to hold her.
In the end, it was Second Prince who had sent someone to help Xiao Ya. He always felt that the black sword was not very reliable. Hearing Duan Qiongâs heartbreaking voice, he could not help but sneer.
âThis bastard has offended Master and still wants to marry Masterâs girl? Hehe... Ridiculous!
âItâs for the sake of that mute girl that Master didnât kill you!â
When Xiao Yaâs figure had completely disappeared, Feng Ruqing turned around slowly, stared at Duan Qiong, and walked toward him.
âJust because Iâve promised Xiao Ya that I wouldnât kill you doesnât mean... Iâll let you off easily!â Feng Ruqing stretched out her hand, and a purple fruit appeared in her hand.
She squeezed Duan Qiongâs chin and forcefully fed him the fruit.
Duan Qiongâs mouth was full of bitterness, but it was nothing compared to his heart, which had already ached to the point of numbness. He stared dumbly in the direction where Xiao Ya had left.
âThis fruit... It will make one suffer from impotence.â Feng Ruqing smirked. âAnd it will disrupt your cultivation! Duan Qiong, do you know why I didnât kill you? Not only because of Xiao Ya, but... I want you to live and hold this guilt for the rest of your life.
âAnd Iâm not afraid of you coming to get back at me. If you want to get revenge, go ahead! I, Feng Ruqing, will never be afraid of you!â
Feng Ruqing glanced at Duan Qiongâs pale face before turning around and walked toward Old Master Duan once again.
Old Master Duanâs eyes were filled with panic. âYou heard what Tianâer said just now, right? Lianyi is Tian Yaâs people. Iâm sure you know who he is in Land of No Return. Little girl, youâve made enough mess here. If you leave now, Iâll forget all about it!â
