Chapter 155: The Shocking Truth

“Ye Lang… how did you realize I was not Hu Qianzao?” In the scene, the fake Hu Qianzao, pierced by Ye Xuan’s sword, heard Ye Xuan’s words and came to understand.

Ye Xuan had realized she was fake. No wonder, Ye Xuan had suddenly struck her so harshly. No wonder, Ye Xuan showed such disdain towards her.

She thought it was because she had imprisoned Ye Xuan here that he despised her.

So that was it.

“Hehe, even if you impersonate her perfectly, over time, I can tell you are not her.”

Ye Xuan said coldly, “You and the her I know are not the same person. She would never do such things.”

“Why do you impersonate her, to let my guard down, and plot to ambush me? To imprison me here, to torture me in all ways–!”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the person impersonating Hu Qianzao let out a wistful smile, “So, it’s because what I did didn’t match her style, that’s how you recognized me?”

“I thought it was just that your love for her was so fleeting, that a mere misunderstanding made you hate her, even wanting to kill her…”

“Honestly, if you really hated her for mistreating you and wanted to kill her, I would have been very happy.”

“Why?!” Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows, puzzled:

“Why would you be happy if I hated Hu Qianzao and wanted to kill her?”

“Because, I feel sorry for you.” The person impersonating Hu Qianzao said, “In your previous life, you suffered humiliation and torment because of Hu Qian’er. In this life, you finally found her, but how did she treat you?”

“Relying on her status as the palace master of Jade Fox Palace this lifetime, she ignored your love, making you work hard to get close to her, even putting on airs as if allowing you close to her was a great favor to you!”

“She doesn’t deserve your love. It angers me to see this, so I wanted you to hate Hu Qianzao, to make you fall in love with the real me…”

“But, I didn’t expect that everything would end just as it was about to succeed, because of your sword strike.”

“The real you?” Ye Xuan frowned, “Who are you really, and why do you know so much about Hu Qian’er and me–!”

“Hehe…” Hearing this, the mysterious woman let out a wistful smile, her appearance slowly began to change, transforming into the form of a woman.

Her appearance was also very beautiful, not inferior to Hu Qianzao, and even bore some resemblance to her.

“Everything that happened between you and Hu Qian’er in the past, no one in this world knows better than I do.” She said, “Everything you did for Hu Qian’er, I’ve seen it all; I can say, no one could be more devoted to her than you…”

“But how did she repay you? Did she ever treat you even slightly well?! No–! Your absolute trust in her, yet she betrayed your trust, letting you swear a vow for a next life together, but when you met again, she had you thrown into prison under a false accusation, disgracing you.”

“That’s not all, for an entire month, she didn’t think once of you. Do you know why?!”

“Why?!” Ye Xuan frowned.

“Hehe, why?” The mysterious woman sneered, then said, “Because she couldn’t endure inside the Yin-Yang Flame, she voluntarily gave up all her memories of you; she will never remember anything about you–!!!”

———

“What?!!”

Hearing this, the people of Jade Fox Palace all showed a look of surprise. Hu Qian’er voluntarily gave up all her memories of Ye Xuan?!!

No wonder, no wonder the palace master had no impression of Ye Xuan after seeing him for so long.

Although human emotions do not disappear with memory, memories do not spontaneously arise because of emotions.

Memories that have been given up will never return–!!!

Although everyone could imagine the pain of a soul being burned by the Yin-Yang flame, Hu Qian’er had made a vow with Ye Xuan for their next lives.

Her decision to voluntarily give up her memories of Ye Xuan to lessen her soul’s pain still made everyone feel somewhat sad.

Ye Xuan had always been waiting for the day Hu Qian’er would regain her memories. But now, Hu Qian’er had given up on Ye Xuan and would never return.

When Hu Qianzao realized this, she felt a guilt so intense it was as if her heart was being sliced by knives.

So it turns out…

It turns out it wasn’t that she didn’t remember things about Ye Xuan, but that she no longer had any memories of Ye Xuan at all.

Ye Xuan, how much had she wronged him. Ye Xuan originally liked someone else, not her; she had deceived him, causing him, in his amnesia, to fall in love with her instead.

But in such a situation, she had betrayed the love he had for her. Thinking of this, Hu Qianzao felt an immense heaviness in her heart, filled with guilt and immense pain.

Looking at Ye Xuan, her eyes already showed a shimmering light, as if tears would roll down the next moment.

This time, she knew she had misunderstood and wronged Ye Xuan, and also how much she had wronged him.

She could no longer maintain her previously absolute stance.

Wrong, she was wrong.

All these things, it turned out she was completely wrong–!!!

Ye Xuan had never wronged her; it was she who had always been wronging Ye Xuan, failing him–!!!

At this moment, the guilt surging from the depths of her heart was almost making her tears unstoppable.

This was the first time she felt so guilty about Ye Xuan that she couldn’t hold back her tears. Everything that had happened before, she could say she didn’t feel involved.

But now, how could she explain?

Wrong, it was her who was wrong–!!!

“These… How do you know about what happened inside the Yin-Yang Flame?!!” Looking at the woman before him, Ye Xuan showed a face full of astonishment.

“How do I know?” The woman spoke, “Ye Lang, have you forgotten… when entering the Yin-Yang Flame, besides the soul of Hu Qian’er, there was another soul… or rather, the soul of an object.”

“–!!” Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s expression drastically changed, “You… you are… the Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu–!!!”

As soon as Ye Xuan said this, everyone in Jade Fox Palace widened their eyes.

The Ultimate Desire Devouring Gu–!!
