Chapter 1621 “Stray Dog (4)”
Even up to this point after all that has transpired, Yun Ruo Xi still firmly believes she’s not at fault and that it’s others who had wronged her.
Without exception, the expressions of these old timers were all very angry yet sad at the same time towards the rebuttal.
“Yun Ruo Xi, even now do you not understand the crime you’ve committed? Do you not see the price of your deceit?! If your deception had not harmed the world, would we have given up on you?” Keeper Zun couldn’t suppress the urge and lashed out despite his usual kind nature, “For you, we not only torched Bai Yan at the altar, we also murdered those around her and the unborn child in her belly… We did all that because of your scheme, your lie!”
Words can’t even be used to describe the heinousness of her act, yet she still got the nerve to say we’re the ones at fault?
“I’m not wrong! The fault has never been with me, it’s all you peoples!” Showing madness in those erratic eyes, the old witch suddenly snatched the veil covering her own face and removed it, thus revealing the scarred features underneath. “Do you see this? This is all done by those demons! What Bai Yan owes me can never be repaid, and I will make sure she and her kind suffer indefinitely for the damage she instilled upon me!”
“Ignorance!” Keeper Zun shakes his head in disappointment, unable to comprehend how someone could twist logic to such a state.
“Enough! I’m not here to discuss the fault of you fools, I’m here to make a deal.” Somehow regaining the sanity back into her voice, Yun Ruo Xi’s tone suddenly got extremely cold and menacing, “I can help you deal with those from the Demon Realm… however, you must submit to me and become my slaves!”
“Outrageous!” Keeper Ling lashes out in volcanic proportion since his temper was the worst among his peers.
For thousands of years, the rulers of the Celestial Palace have never submitted themselves to others, let alone to a traitor or a demon. The very idea was a slap in their face, a direct insult to their dignity.
“Yun Ruo Xi, we will never join you, now scram!” Keeper Zun also shouts this out after having his last line crossed.
He knows they aren’t able to move against this woman anymore, but that doesn’t mean he or his fellow Keepers wanted to meet her again.
“You don’t want to kill the demons?” The witch slowly marched forward in an almost threatening manner, “Don’t forget what the Demon Realm would do if they catch any of you. Without the Celestial Lord’s help, no one can oppose Di Cang the Demon King. Now I’m offering you all a way out, a way to live…. also a way to exact revenge for a little price.”
That does it, Keeper Ling who’s been suppressing his urge to attack finally lost it and rushed at the witch with all his might. Instantly, he punches down at her shoulder and sent the woman flying, causing a mouthful of blood to spew forward as the consequence.
“Get out of here!” Keeper Ling exhales deeply to gather his wits to withhold a second strike, “Don’t let me see you again, otherwise I won’t be so merciful.”
This woman cheated me the worst, how dare she demand us to become her slave? DREAM ON!!
