She was still different from others.
Otherwise, she would not have pleaded on behalf of the girl, to let someone who should have died to still live.
“Master, for me to be back here, does it mean that I am still of use to them? Does that also mean that my daughter will not need to suffer all these…..”
“You’re mistaken.”
Qing Lan Fei’s unfinished words were coldly interrupted by the woman’s raspy voice.
Her eyes calm and emotionless like pools of dead still water, she looked indifferently at the face that had turned deadly pale from having remained in such an icy cold place for a long time, she said slowly, pausing at every word.
“You are merely just bait. I’ve said that fate….. is something nobody can ever escape from. Just like the moment you turned traitor, you would have to pay the price. Hence, your offspring shall now inherit the destiny that you did not manage to fulfil back then.”
“All of your remaining life will be spent here in this place.”
Qing Lan Fei’s eyes lowered and the corners of her mouth tightened up scornfully. “In the past, I believed in fate as well. But…..”
She suddenly lifted her head, and the light shining out from her eyes was startling to see. “Now, I do not believe in that a single bit. Master, would you believe that my life will not end here? And my daughter will not end up like me, to be haplessly used and manipulated by all of you!”
Seemingly stunned by those words, the woman actually came to show a rare moment of surprise. But very soon, her eyes filled up with compassion. “Lan Fei, though several hundred years have passed but you’re still as naive as before. A traitor who slipped out of control like you, would never be seen a second time here in the Mind Free Peak.”
“You can just remain here to reflect and repent. I’m sure you’ve sensed that all the spirit power in your body is gone by now, and as time goes by, you’ll find that your body will become weaker and weaker. That hollow and brittle bit of willpower of yours, will not hold out for all that much longer.”
“You are no longer that same Qing Lan Fei from before.”
Upon saying that, the woman immediately turned around and left.
Qing Lan Fei closed her eyes slowly, sighing heavily in her heart.
It was feared that all of them did not know that she had been brought here to the Mind Free Peak. What a pity. She finally came to be reunited with Jing Yu after so much hardship and they were again parted in such a short period of time.
Maybe the trials the two of them had to bear had yet to fully pass.
Back from the time that she was mercilessly persecuted by Qing Luo Yan, she knew that it was all part of things she would have to suffer.
Even though she had been rid of her spirit powers, she was still no weakling here in Cloud Heaven. And Jing Yu was also an expert with rare unfathomable cultivation, how was it possible that they fell prey to a surprise attack so easily? !
If not for the Mind Free Peak’s hidden hands behind it all, how could Qing Luo Yan possibly have succeeded, and how could Jing Yu be controlled that easily?
To people who were no longer of any use to them, the Mind Free Peak would really mercilessly oppress and persecute to the very end, to the extent they would kill with a borrowed knife so cleanly without leaving any loose ends.
