Chapter 912: I Love You Too Much
"What you said last time?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.
"I said, if one day I did something wrong, would you forgive me?" Tang Xue raised her head and looked straight at Chen Yu.
"Since you know you are doing wrong, why must you do it?" Chen Yu's voice sank, carrying a chill.
"Because I love you too much." Tang Xue raised her head, smiling: "But I cannot have you, so if I ever go astray, it is entirely because of you."
"Tang Xue, go back." Chen Yu sighed, picked up the cup in front of him, and drank all the water in it in one gulp.
"The first time I've drunk water you poured for me." Chen Yu smiled faintly: "You mixed some kind of chemical agent with unknown ingredients into it. Tang Xue, is this how you treat your savior?"
"So you knew all along?" Tang Xue raised her head to look at Chen Yu, a hint of a smile appearing on her face.
"I knew. I am a Yisheng. Although the ingredients of these agents are unknown, they should be chemical agents that paralyze the nerves and cause the meridians to close." Chen Yu put down the cup and sighed: "Zhou Yuqing and Zhang Xu being attacked—that was you tipping them off, right?"
"That's right, I did it. I contacted the Pei Family and told them where Zhou Yuqing and Zhang Xu were." Tang Xue lowered her head and said: "That is why they were both attacked."
"Fine, I understand." Chen Yu nodded: "Who are you working for now?"
"I cannot say." Tang Xue kept her head low, not daring to look Chen Yu in the eyes.
"Even if you don't say it, I can guess. The things you gave me to drink have traces of genetic engineering. If I'm not mistaken, it's the masterpiece of that grandfather of mine whom I've never met. Are you working for the God Lord?" Chen Yu said.
"You knew this water was problematic, so why did you still drink it?" Tang Xue raised her head to look at Chen Yu.
"Why not drink it?" Chen Yu sighed and said: "Do you know how painful my heart was when I drank this cup of water?"
"I saved you, helped you, and helped the Tang Clan. You return evil for good. These are not the most important things; what is important is that you are clearly a kind-hearted girl, so why did you also walk down this path?"
"What promise did the God Lord give you? Money? Power? Or a promise of immortality?" Chen Yu said in a deep voice: "I think no matter what it is, it shouldn't make a kind-hearted girl walk down this path."
"He never promised me any of those things." Tang Xue smiled, and as she smiled, tears fell uncontrollably: "He only told me that if the great cause is settled, you can belong to me alone."
Chen Yu felt a mouthful of old blood stuck in his chest, nearly suffering internal injuries. He wanted to curse; although the God Lord was his grandfather, he really wanted to curse, "You are truly a dog."
A girl as kind as Tang Xue had actually been used by the God Lord just like that.
"Brother Chen, I want to be with you. If you agree now, there is still time." Tang Xue lowered her head.
"No, it's too late. Tang Xue, what I want to tell you is that if you turn back now, there is still time. I understand the God Lord; he is a person who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. You must not be deceived by him."
"Brother Chen, you don't need to persuade me, because I have always been clear-headed, and I know what I am doing." Tang Xue smiled and took out a vial of medicine.
"The antidote is here. I can give it to you at any time. I don't demand to have you all to myself; I just want to be an ordinary person by your side. If you agree, I will give you the antidote." Tang Xue said.
"First, you need to make one thing clear: if the God Lord wants to deal with me personally, he won't give you the antidote. The medicine in your hand is still poison." Chen Yu said.
"Second, I am a person of principle. I said that I treat you as my own younger sister, so you are my younger sister." Chen Yu looked at Tang Xue and said: "It just breaks my heart to watch you go astray."
Just at this moment, with a loud 'Boom—', the room door was smashed open directly from the outside, and an old man walked in.
The old man's strength was not weak; he was at least at the Martial Ancestor Realm. He said sinisterly: "Chen Yu, you didn't expect this day to come, did you?"
"And who are you?" Chen Yu looked at this old man.
"A disciple under the Tiance Sword Mansion, Zhou Kong, and also the one who supports Pei Yuan in the secular world. You want to start with the Pei Family and overthrow our entire Sword Mansion? Heh, that is probably wishful thinking." The old man said with a chuckle.
"Elder Zhou, I did as you requested, but I also have one request: you cannot hurt him." Tang Xue stepped forward, shielding Chen Yu.
"Heh, thank the White-Robed Underworld Envoy on my behalf for solving such a big problem for our Tiance Sword Mansion, but Chen Yu must die." Zhou Kong sneered.
"You promised me that as long as he didn't cause trouble for your Sword Mansion, you wouldn't hurt him either." Tang Xue screamed: "How can you go back on your word?"
"Little girl, you are still too young. Heh, that's right, we did promise you, but Chen Yu is a threat to our Tiance Sword Mansion. If we don't kill him, we will have endless trouble in the future. Do you think we would let him go easily?"
Zhou Kong laughed loudly and sneered: "I have been in the secular world for so many years and have finally made a great contribution to the sect. By capturing Chen Yu, I can become a candidate disciple of the Tianxin Pavilion after returning. By then, breaking through to the Martial Dao Peak and reaching a new realm will be within reach."
"Men, take Chen Yu down." The old man ordered.
"Stop, stop it." Tang Xue tried desperately to stop them, but she was only an ordinary girl and was no match for these Martial Arts Experts.
She was shoved heavily to the ground, and a disciple, finding her too annoying, drew the sword in his hand, intending to end her life.
Chen Yu stepped forward, shielding Tang Xue, and with two fingers of his right hand, he clamped onto the sword that was about to pierce Tang Xue.
"Human hearts are sinister. Now, do you understand?" Chen Yu looked at Tang Xue.
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. They promised me... I just love you too much, I want to be with you." Tang Xue hugged Chen Yu tightly, weeping uncontrollably.
"Little girl, stop struggling. Don't worry, we promise you that after we kill Chen Yu, we will bury you together with him, so you can be together forever. Isn't that good?" Zhou Kong laughed loudly.
"Finish off this little girl, sever all of Chen Yu's meridians, make him a cripple, then take him back to the Tiance Sword Mansion for execution, and after he dies, hang his corpse in the mountain forest for three days and three nights."
Zhou Kong said grimly: "Daring to go against our Sword Mansion is just seeking your own death."
"Yes." The disciple holding the sword moved his hand, intending to pull the sword out from between Chen Yu's fingers.
