Do you remember when you were four years old, your parents were killed and you were taken to a house?

That was done by the prince. Because you have innate sword bones, the prince had someone take you there and transplant your sword bones to Xiao Mo!

Your parents refused, so they were simply killed on a whim.

"What did you say?" Jiang Qingyi was struck dumb, her face turned pale, her pupils trembled, and the long sword in her hand fell to the ground.

With his other hand secretly gripping a hidden weapon behind his back, Sun Jin continued, "You heard right, it was your master's father who killed your parents."

You could have become a renowned sword immortal, but your master transplanted your sword bone!

Your master was able to enter the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of eighteen entirely because of your sword bone.

"It was those two, father and son, who destroyed your family and robbed you of your life."

[The realms are explained below—]

The three lower realms are: Qi Refining, Foundation Building, and Cave Abode.

The three intermediate realms are: Dragon Gate, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul.

The three highest realms are: Jade Uncarved Stone, Immortal, and Ascension.

Chapter 16 Master, you lied to me, and you lied to me too, didn't you?

"It was those two, father and son, who destroyed your family and robbed you of your life!"

Sun Jin's voice kept echoing in Jiang Qingyi's ears.

"Impossible, impossible." Jiang Qingyi kept backing away, her face pale.

"You must be lying to me! You must be lying to me! You must be!" Jiang Qingyi was extremely confused and could not believe what she was hearing.

She didn't believe her master was the son of her enemy.

At that moment, Sun Jin found an opportunity and threw the hidden weapon in his hand at Jiang Qingyi!

But Jiang Qingyi merely tilted her head to the side, and the hidden weapon grazed her hair.

Almost simultaneously, Jiang Qingyi brought her fingers together, using them as a sword, and slashed at his neck.

"Uh"

Sun Jin clutched his neck, and blood spurted from between his fingers.

"Help me." Sun Jin reached out to Jiang Qingyi, her pupils gradually dilating.

Jiang Qingyi looked at him with eyes as still as dead water, without the slightest fluctuation.

A few breaths later, Sun Jin's hand fell completely to the ground, his eyes wide open as he stared ahead, the soil stained red with blood.

"Qingyi! Are you alright?"

Xiao Mo finally arrived.

Seeing his disciple's unharmed back and the corpses of the Blood Butterfly Pavilion cultivators beside him.

Xiao Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon hearing her master's voice, Jiang Qingyi trembled and slowly turned around.

The moment Xiao Mo saw Jiang Qingyi's eyes, he stopped in his tracks.

Xiao Mo had never seen his disciple look at him like that before.

Qingyi's eyes were devoid of any color, as if she were dead, her soul broken.

"Qingyi, what happened?"

Xiao Mo took a step forward, but Jiang Qingyi unleashed a sword aura that slashed in front of him.

"Master, do you know?"

Jiang Qingyi spoke slowly, her voice sounding like it came from the abyss, filled with despair.

"Actually, I was able to remember things when I was very young, probably when I was one year old."

I remember I had a very happy family.

My father was a moderately wealthy businessman. My mother was an ordinary person, but she was very gentle and loved me and my father very much.

When I was two years old, my mother gave birth to a younger brother.

My younger brother is very cute.

When he was one and a half years old, the first name he could clearly say was "older sister".

From the moment I was born, I did not know what worries were.

But when I was four years old, everything changed.

Several people stormed into our house and began to slaughter people indiscriminately.

Whether it was the guards, the servants, or the maid who took care of me, they were all dead.

At that time, the cobblestone path was covered in blood, and the pond in the yard turned blood red.

My parents stuffed my two-year-old brother and me into the closet.

My parents told us not to speak and not to come out, no matter what happens outside.

Inside the closet, I hugged my younger brother tightly, covering his eyes and ears.

Not long after, a commotion was heard outside.

I saw my parents being killed by those people through the crack in the cabinet!

They eventually found my brother and me.

Right in front of me!

They killed my brother!

Master, do you know what it feels like when your family members die one by one in front of you, and no matter how much you beg for mercy, it's useless?

The other party doesn't even have your two-year-old brother!

Master, do you know what this kind of despair is?

Xiao Mo: "."

When Jiang Qingyi brought up these matters, Xiao Mo knew that Jiang Qingyi already knew everything.

“My whole family is dead, not a single one of them survived. I was taken to a courtyard.”

In this courtyard, I saw many people.

They tied me to the bed, took a knife, cut open my back, and took out one of my bones.

It hurts, it really hurts.

I fainted from the pain.

When I woke up, I was surrounded by corpses.

Later I learned that the place where I woke up was called a mass grave.

I don't know how my wounds healed, nor how I survived.

Perhaps Heaven took pity on me and sent a celestial being who happened to pass by to heal me.

But I know I survived!

At that time, I swore to God that I would live well and avenge my parents and brother!

They killed my whole family, so I'll kill their whole family in return!

Regardless of whether my enemy's family is innocent or not, I will not let them go!

I want to kill his son and his daughter in front of him, and then I will cut him into a thousand pieces!

Everyone must die!

Jiang Qingyi raised her head, her eyes filled with endless hatred.

"Over the years, I have been secretly investigating who killed my whole family, but I have never been able to find a clue."

That house has been reduced to ashes.

But Master

Just now when I killed this man.

He said.

Master, your father is the enemy who killed my whole family.

So that I could have one of my bones transplanted into you, Master.

Master, is that so?

Is everything he said true?

Xiao Mo: "."

"Master! Is what he said false? Is he lying to me?"

Xiao Mo: "."

Tears blurred Jiang Qingyi's vision, her right hand gripping the Xuan Shuang longsword tightly, and she shouted almost hysterically:

"Master! Answer Qingyi!"

"Master! Please say something!"

Xiao Mo sighed, raised his head, and looked directly into Jiang Qingyi's eyes: "The person you killed was named Sun Jin, one of the advisors of the Xiao Prince's Mansion. Everything he said is true."

It was the Xiao Prince's Mansion that killed your entire family, and I am the son of Xiao Jingwang.

Your sword essence resides within me.

Hearing her master's words, Jiang Qingyi shook her head: "No, none of this is true. None of this is true. Master, you're lying to me, you're lying to me too, right?"

"Qingyi, this is the truth."

"Liar!" In an instant, the girl raised her longsword and pointed it at Xiao Mo's eyes. "Then why did you save me back then! Why did you bring me back to the mountain! Why did you teach me swordsmanship! Why did you treat me like a brother and a father! Why! Why!"

“Because I owe you.” Xiao Mo said calmly, “I reached the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of eighteen. I thought it was because of my special talent, but it turned out that I had transplanted a girl’s sword bone. One day, a woman told me that the girl was not dead, so I left the Xiao State Mansion to find you and make it up to you.”

"Compensation! The son of the enemy who killed my whole family saved me! He taught me swordsmanship! He raised me! Instead of this, you might as well kill me!" Jiang Qingyi shouted.

Xiao Mo slowly closed his eyes: "Kill me, fulfill your vow, this is what I owe you."

Looking at the man in front of her, Jiang Qingyi's long sword trembled incessantly, and tears rolled down her cheeks and onto the ground.

Finally, Xiao Mo only felt a gust of sword wind sweep past him.

Xiao Mo slowly opened his eyes, and the piece of skirt that the girl had cut off gradually floated up into the air before his eyes.

She held her longsword, turned and left, a voice coming from behind her:

From this day forward, we have nothing to do with each other.

Chapter 17 But Xia Chan, she is still my disciple.

At the foot of the mountain, the corpses of Blood Butterfly Pavilion disciples lay scattered on the ground.

Xiao Mo sat on a rock, head down, clutching a piece of cloth in his hand, seemingly lost in thought.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Mo slowly spoke, "Did you come here to laugh at me?"

Xia Chan walked towards Xiao Mo step by step, stopped three meters away from him, and tilted her head: "Is it funny?"

Xiao Mo smiled and shook his head: "It's really not funny."

Xia Chan scanned her surroundings, her gaze returning to Xiao Mo:

"does it worth?"

“You were originally a promising sword cultivator, but you abandoned your own path just so she could cultivate, leaving yourself crippled. In the end, she still found out the truth and severed ties with you.”

"She was almost heartbroken after she found out you were the son of her enemy."

"Everything you've done over the past ten years has vanished into thin air."
