Novel Bin Chapter 2001 - Endless Darkness (3)
Chapter 2001 “Endless Darkness (3)”
Mo Xin Yan’s sweat flowed without resistance along her forehead as the lady bit that pale lip, “Shifu, I didn’t want to betray you, I just didn’t want you to kill him, I was afraid... afraid that Shifu will regret it.”
Slowly closing her eyes, she waited a good while before opening them again after mustering up the courage in her voice, “In my mind, Shifu is like a mother, someone I hold dear. Yes, I admit I like Di cang, but I only regard him as a father figure and didn’t want him to die, that’s all.”
Even now, Mo Xin Yan did not dare to admit her thoughts aloud for fear of retribution.
Willow sneered and smugly smirked at the lying student: “I don’t care what you think or what your excuse is. From here onforward, you and Heart will only serve me. If I find out you violated my orders again, the consequences won’t be so easy anymore, you understand?!”
At this moment, Mo Xin Yan couldn’t take her eyes off of that furious flame burning within the monarch’s gaze. It’s soul piercing, sending her whole existence cowering with the head hanging low.
“Yes, Shifu, your disciple understands.”
“Get up,” Willow waves her hand and forcibly dragged Mo Xin Yan up.
“Mo Xin Yan, do you want to know where they all went?” Willow narrowed her eyes at the sorry excuse of a disciple she had and asked this aloud.
Shaking that head without daring to look up: “Your disciple don’t want to know.”
“HAHA,” Willow’s smugness grew even bigger as she continued, “the place where I pulled Heart from is a space where time stands still. In fact, it is the path separating the Hell Domain and the Demon Realm. I don’t have any command over it because it belongs to a powerful person from ancient times. That individual used to have a connection with the Demon Realm and knew my father at one point.”
The more she spoke, the more entranced the monarch seems to be by her past memories.
“It’s because of that connection that I overheard his conversation with my father. I learned of that space’s existence and built the Hell Domain behind it, preventing anyone from crossing over unless they want to be trapped inside....” Stopping to gaze up into the pure blue sky, Willow’s eyes flickered with the light of remembrance and emotion, “Then later, I by pure chance found the book left by that person. There were a lot of knowledge inside the texts, including the way to manipulate the space and turn it into a passage of ice and fire like you know today. It embodied my hatred for humanity.”
“I thought that by doing so, I would be able to prevent the woman from coming to my domain in the future, but I didn’t expect her to come anyways....”
Willow’s cackling voice didn’t carry any sinister note to it, but somehow it made Mo Xin Yan even more afraid than earlier.
“Xin Yan, tell me, what’s so bad about your shifu here? Why did Di Cang always refuse me? It was as so before, and it is the same now, but no matter, I don’t care anymore. If he won’t accept me then I won’t let them have it any better either....” Willow’s momentum instantly transformed after that statement, turning cold and murderous, “The time inside there is a static, never changing and unmoving. They can’t cultivate or leave, forever drifting in the darkness until they rot from within.”
“Shifu, wouldn’t your decision be the same as letting them be together forever?”
