“You-” his words caused Zhao Yiqin’s expression to twist menacingly, “You would rather choose death in order to save her?!”
“Yes I would!” Master Silent looked at her earnestly, “I already promised her, even if I die, I will definitely still find a way to control her demons! I won’t go back on my word!”
Zhao Yiqin’s body shook angrily, “Don’t you… Don’t you have any affections left for me? You would rather die than help me?!”
Hearing this, the Silent Master let out a breath of exasperation.
“I’ve already helped you before.”
He looked at his hands as he laughed bitterly, “It began precisely as an ill-considered action. In order to help you and have Mo Linyuan get murdered by Ye Mu, I awakened and advanced her demonization progress… but consequently? The result is a crime against Buddha’s teachings, not only causing harm to others but also my own consciousness!”
Zhao Yiqin couldn’t understand at first, but when she thought of something, her eyes changed!
“Then that night at Tian Zhou Temple… those 500 martial art master’s deaths were…”
“That’s right, it was her.” He had an aggrieved smile, “I intended to utilize her to kill her loved ones, to eliminate Mo Linyuan. It could have paved a pathway for your success… Yet, who would have imagined, her childish determination was exceptionally resolute. She only killed off the 500 martial arts masters you worked hard to assemble; it’s no wonder you are so angry.”
“You-” Zhao Yiqin cried out in anger as she raised her hand accusingly, “So it was you! You did that!”
She never really understood how her well formed safety entourage was completely exterminated! So it was because of the Silent Master!
“You want to hit me?” the Silent Monk abruptly approached her one step. He wore white buddhist attires. His eyes were clear and determined as he taunted her, “All that I have done, I did for your sake. My dear mother, would you blame me for it?”
Hearing “dear mother”, Zhao Yiqin’s anger was accentuated, but she couldn’t allow herself to vent. The slap she held froze in place, never descending.
She glared at him resentfully, “Why were you acting rashly on your own like that?!”
She always assumed that the Silent Master was a passive person. When she requested anything, he wouldn’t go against her. When he was a child, he even cooked vegetarian dishes for her to eat. He was all grown up now. She never thought that he was also thinking about her, but due to a misstep, he accidentally caused harm to her instead.
He genuinely wanted to help her, how could she possibly muster the will to strike him?
The Silent Monk smiled grimly, “When Mo Linyuan showed up, he was a dazzling light that shined. He is a capable individual that was meant for the role of the emperor. Since his return, any hindrance he faced around him had already been cleaned up with one sweep. How many people are you expecting me to kill for you… for your sake? My whole life is not something easy to redeem. Thus, I no longer want to exchange my identity for a new status anymore.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yiqin’s heart became sour, “That’s in the past now. Today, I will not let this chance slip!”
“Then, you will only see me die here today!”
The Silent Monk’s tone was surprisingly firm, “I already made a mistake once before, I will not make the same mistake a second time. You are not destined to achieve your goal. If you give up now, you may still be able to live!”
“Shut up!” Zhao Yiqin’s face twisted, “If it wasn’t for Mo Linyuan, I would have already been Empress by now! He should just go to hell!”
“As you continue to pursue your dream of domination, this son will be the first to die!”
The man smiled as he made this unexpected exclamation. His beauty was accentuated with his smile, resembling a beautiful blooming lotus flower.
“Maybe once I’m dead, I can repent for some of your sins, am I right?”
