Chapter 22: He Was The Only Hope In Her Heart. |
“Northern Star Goddess, I beg you, please come out. I was wrong, I shouldn't have treated him that way!!!” In the darkness, Yu Linger’s will was shouting loudly, “It's not his fault, it's mine. I shouldn’t have treated him like that. Let me out, I need to save him!!!”
However, no matter how much she shouted, it was in vain.
The Northern Star Goddess’s voice didn’t appear.
Even though Yu Linger was reborn once and was supposed to be stronger, she felt helpless right now. She seemed to revert to being a little girl again.
At this moment, she wished for someone to come and help her.
However, when she thought of that, the person who came to her mind wasn’t Yu Shou, but her Junior Brother… Ye Xuan.
The man who should have been waiting for her to save him.
Now, he was the only hope in her heart.
After shouting for a long time, Yu Linger finally understood. It seemed that the Northern Star Goddess wouldn’t let her return to reality until she watched all these scenes.
Yu Linger even felt somewhat grateful. Fortunately, she used the Ice Sealing Spell and not the Blaze Spell…
Yu Ling’er was even a bit thankful.
Otherwise, everything would have been irreparable.
“…"
Watching Yu Linger’s reaction, Ye Xuan understood he had cleared his name. Regardless of what he did in the future, as long as the Inner Demon possessed him, his actions would be regarded as the demon’s doing. So, what he did was forgiven.
However, why didn’t Ye Xuan use this trick from the beginning?
Why didn’t he directly blame all his actions on the Inner Demon?
Starting with abandoning Yu Linger and escaping, it could be considered the influence of the Inner Demon…
Come on, if he really did that, Yu Linger would probably only think he shouldn’t die. Still, in her eyes, he would just be a fellow disciple without spiritual roots.
Having finally awakened a system, holding such a powerful system, was he only using it to wash his hands of what he did, letting the heroine forgive him?
The system would probably cry.
The system’s powerful abilities weren’t meant for trivial matters. If Ye Xuan had whitewashed himself so crudely, the system’s rewards might not be that generous.
Moreover, there was another important thing.
That was, the Inner Demon was something he made up himself.
If the Inner Demon possessed him from the beginning, and if there was no Inner Demon when the time came, there would be a significant plot hole. Even if he could blame some of the events on the butterfly effects of his rebirth, it wouldn’t be enough.
In any case, Ye Xuan’s creation of the Inner Demon plot wasn’t merely to whitewash himself. It was just a stepping stone for his whitewashing.
True whitewashing wasn’t as simple as making people forgive him.

"How about it, kid? Tell me your grievances; tell me who you hate?” At this moment, the Inner Demon behind Ye Xuan spoke to his ears in a soft, soothing voice, “I’m willing to listen to everything. When people are desperate, having someone to listen to eases their burden a lot.”
(At present)
“Don’t believe it, Junior Brother Yu Xuan!!!” Seeing the Inner Demon in the scene bewitching Ye Xuan, Yu Linger couldn’t help but shout anxiously.
But the next moment, she returned to her senses.
‘Why am I so nervous?'
Everything in this scene happened; now it’s in the future. What use was there in shouting?

Hearing the Inner Demon’s voice, Ye Xuan didn’t doubt its words. The Inner Demon was most skilled at manipulating; even an immortal with a weak mind couldn’t resist.
