Chapter 21: The Truth Revealed

“??!!” In the scene, Elder Qingyan, Lady Qingshuang, and the senior brothers Yu Hao and Yu Yu were all watching in astonishment. Ye Xuan had not only fallen into the path of demonhood, but there also seemed to be some unresolved issues between him and Yu Shou. What despicable deeds had Yu Shou committed that Ye Xuan was forcing him to confess?

Yu Shou’s face turned extremely unsightly. “I...”

Seeing Yu Shou’s hesitation, Ye Xuan understood he was stalling for time, likely hoping for the immortals of Taihua to sense the situation and come to rescue. But Ye Xuan had prepared for this and wouldn’t give Yu Shou any chance. He insisted on Yu Shou revealing his vile actions right away.

Yu Ling’er, watching the scene, widened her eyes in shock. She remembered feeling the terrifying demonic aura and fainting, unaware of the subsequent events. Ye Xuan seemed to still have some rationality, but why then did he kill her parents and senior brothers? Did he eventually lose control?

“Hehe...” Seeing Yu Shou’s continued hesitation, Ye Xuan conjured a dark mass of demonic qi in his hand.

In the scene, hearing Yu Shou’s confession about releasing the tiger demon, Ye Xuan wasn’t satisfied. He frowned and said, “What else?” As he spoke, he transformed the demonic qi into needles and jabbed them into Yu Shou’s eyes, causing him to scream in agony. Ye Xuan demanded Yu Shou reveal more, or else he would make him deaf as well.

Yu Shou, under the threat of Ye Xuan’s demonic power, finally confesses the full extent of his treachery: “I released the tiger demon, intending to create a crisis for Yu Ling’er... It was you who actually saved her at the last moment. I used Yu Ling’er’s life and innocence to blackmail you into abandoning her, making her believe I was the one who saved her.”

This revelation leaves everyone, including Elder Qingyan, Lady Qingshuang, and the senior brothers Yu Hao and Yu Yu, in shock. They can’t believe that Yu Shou would concoct such a sinister plot.

As Ye Xuan demands more truth, Yu Shou, now blind from the demonic attack, admits further: “It was me... I told you... after I grew tired of her, I would find an opportunity... to let you have a turn...”

Elder Qingyan, hearing this, is filled with disgust and anger, cursing Yu Shou for his deplorable and inhumane comments. The revelation of such vile intentions towards Yu Ling’er further enflames the already tense situation.

The others present, including the elders and senior brothers, are overwhelmed with guilt and regret. They realize their grave mistake in misjudging Ye Xuan and protecting Yu Shou. The recognition of their misdirected blame and protection towards Yu Shou leads to a collective sense of remorse for not understanding and supporting Ye Xuan when he needed it the most.
