Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness

After all, anyone would feel uncomfortable thinking about how they had desperately mocked Ye Xuan, who had now become the person to whom they desperately owed apologies.

It would have been slightly easier if everyone was simply evil, offending others and then staunchly refusing to admit their mistakes.

But the disciples of Jade Fox Palace were rather naive…

Right is right, wrong is wrong.

That’s why they had pitied Ye Xuan before and sympathized with him, yet also despised him when he did wrong.

At this time, realizing that they had misunderstood Ye Xuan and had almost caused him to die unjustly once again, how could they not feel embarrassed?

Especially those disciples who had mocked him loudly before, they now felt too ashamed to show their faces.

Clearly, this was Jade Fox Palace’s home ground, yet just having Ye Xuan stand there made them feel an urge to flee.

But despite their embarrassment, they were also people who dared to act. Therefore, they could only stand there, looking at Ye Xuan with eyes full of guilt.

Hu Qianzao, as the master of Jade Fox Palace, represented the face of Jade Fox Palace. She should not be kneeling to beg anyone for forgiveness under any circumstances.

But when Hu Qianzao knelt down to Ye Xuan, crying and asking for forgiveness, not a single person dared to voice their opinion.

It wasn’t that they didn’t dare; they simply had no face to. Who in Jade Fox Palace didn’t owe Ye Xuan?

So, when they heard Hu Qianzao say that she would do anything to repay Ye Xuan, even become his slave, they all decisively began to speak up in support of their master.

But after saying those words, they felt something was off. Clearly, they were speaking on behalf of their master, but why did it feel like they were helping to sell their master out?

Hu Qianzao stood up, surveyed the surrounding people of Jade Fox Palace, took a deep breath, and then said, “Ye Xuan, previously the disciples of Jade Fox Palace had many misunderstandings and offenses against you, I, as the master of Jade Fox Palace, apologize on their behalf.”

“I will take responsibility for all their mistakes… Please do not blame them.” At this moment, she also realized something.

With Ye Xuan’s love for her, and with such a request, it was impossible for Ye Xuan not to agree. So, her request to Ye Xuan was somewhat presumptuous and arrogant.

However, she had to do it because if she didn’t mend their relationship now, it would be awkward in future meetings.

She had already decided to make Ye Xuan the new master of Jade Fox Palace alongside her.

So, before that, the relationship between the disciples of Jade Fox Palace and Ye Xuan couldn’t be too bad, to avoid awkwardness in future encounters.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s gaze turned towards the disciples of Jade Fox Palace. Faced with Ye Xuan’s gaze, everyone in Jade Fox Palace shamefully bowed their heads.

Regardless of gender or age, thinking about how they had just spoken harshly to Ye Xuan, they now felt extremely guilty.

Ye Xuan, such a good person—!!!

Yet, he was treated so poorly in their Jade Fox Palace, misunderstood in the future, sacrificed everything for their master, only to be killed by their master and sacrificed to the spirits of Jade Fox Palace.

But, Ye Xuan was innocent—!!!

The people of Jade Fox Palace had almost persecuted such a kind, passionately devoted, and innocent person again.

Fortunately, although the future Ye Xuan had not been vindicated, the present Ye Xuan had not truly experienced all the injustices of the future.

Thinking this, they also breathed a sigh of relief. At least, they could feel a little less guilty.

“I’m sorry, Young Master Ye.” At this moment, the female immortal Hu Lan from Jade Fox Palace came before Ye Xuan and said with a bow:

“The grievances you suffered in our Jade Fox Palace, we will definitely not forget. Everything you have done for our master, although it is all in the future, we will not forget your intentions.”

“When the day comes, whenever you need, just give the order, and Jade Fox Palace will surely come to help you.”

“You really don’t need to do this.” Ye Xuan said, “I’ve said before, regarding the matters of the future, I just consider it as watching a spectacle. Since this misunderstanding has been resolved, you don’t need to take it too much to heart.”

Hearing this, everyone in Jade Fox Palace silently breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, indeed, that was something that was supposed to happen in the future.

Perhaps the future Ye Xuan did suffer a lot of injustices for the master of Jade Fox Palace, but those things have not happened yet.

And the current Jade Fox Palace does not intentionally harbor any ill intentions towards Ye Xuan, and in fact, they have not actually caused him any real harm.

Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, it’s just a matter of finding an opportunity to compensate Ye Xuan in the future.

There’s no need to feel too guilty. After all, the person wronged by Jade Fox Palace is not the current Ye Xuan, but the future Ye Xuan.

As everyone was thinking this…

————

In the sky, the scene appeared again.

A ray of spiritual light fell on the path of Taihua Mountain, taking the form of Ye Xuan.

He looked at his own hands, his face full of disbelief, “I… didn’t die? Am I reborn again? No, this isn’t rebirth, I’ve returned to the past, just before I joined Taihua Sect?”

Looking around, Ye Xuan muttered to himself, his eyes filled with immense shock. The next moment, his eyes couldn’t help but show a trace of melancholy. In his mind, images from before began to emerge.

In the Jade Fox Palace, he was pointed at by others, struck down by Hu Qianzao in one blow, his head fell, and the scene was one of tears flowing down his face.

Thinking of everything that happened before his rebirth, his heart couldn’t help but feel a wave of loss.

“After all, Qian’er never believed me in the end… Perhaps, just as Wan Yuxin said, I was never in her heart… In this life, if I meet her again, she will surely not take me to heart again.”

“Loving someone so exhaustingly like this, is it really good? In this world, everyone has their limits of endurance. Perhaps, I have already reached my limit.

“Well then, since that is the case, in this life, I will no longer have any involvement with her. This way, it’s better for her, and for me… too.” As he spoke, a clear tear involuntarily fell from his eyes.

His gaze turned towards the direction of the Jade Fox Palace, as if he was bidding farewell to the beauty there.

————

The suddenly appearing scene stunned the previously relaxed people of the Jade Fox Palace.

They looked at the image in the sky with astonished faces, then turned their gazes towards Ye Xuan. Everyone was so surprised they were speechless.

Especially Hu Qianzao, who looked as if struck by lightning, staring blankly at Ye Xuan, then tears started flowing from her eyes like a dam had broken, unstoppable.

“Ye Xuan, it’s you–!!!” She couldn’t help but cry out, “So… you were also reborn, you… sob… sorry, sorry–!!!”

She no longer knew what to say to express her regret at that moment. She could only kneel in front of Ye Xuan again, embracing his legs, crying and saying, “I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect… I really didn’t expect… I was wrong–!!!”

Not only Hu Qianzao, but everyone in the Jade Fox Palace, including Qingxue and Yu Ling’er, were all looking at Ye Xuan in shock.

Ye Xuan is also a reborn person?!! Someone who was reborn from the future?!! When did this happen, why didn’t they know?!!

Especially Yu Ling’er, who couldn’t help feeling a bit scared.

‘This Ye Xuan, could it be the one who was harmed by her and reborn? No… no, that shouldn’t be, Ye Xuan clearly told Beidou Star Lord already, he didn’t want to retain memories and be reborn.’

‘He shouldn’t remember about what happened between him and me in the future. Why then, do I feel this sense of guilt, this fear? Could it be that deep down, I’m actually afraid of meeting that Ye Xuan whom I had hurt?’

‘No, it’s not that–!!!’

At this moment, Yu Ling’er was certain, she wasn’t afraid, but was feeling… guilt, touched, and expectant.

If this Ye Xuan is actually the one who she had really hurt then she has the chance to compensate for everything she owe him. After all, the person she truly owes is that future Ye Xuan who still remembers her.

‘But if he remembers me, then how much suffering must he have silently endured?’

“Ye Xuan… you… you actually remember about the future, don’t you?” Tears welled up in Yu Ling’er’s eyes, full of expectation as she asked Ye Xuan.

At this moment, Ye Xuan was speechless. This plot, it wasn’t created by him, it must have been generated by the system, but this plot clearly doesn’t make sense.

How could he possibly be reborn twice, and before each rebirth, be deeply in love with two different people?

‘Haven’t I been hurt enough by love? Now Yu Ling’er also started to doubt whether I remember her or not.’

‘If I answer that I don’t remember, then naturally that would be good, as it would save a lot of explanation and make the plot more logical.’

‘But that way, Yu Ling’er would definitely be disappointed. She owes so much to the future me, would she not regret it if I don’t give her the chance to make amends?’

‘If I answer that I remember, then Yu Ling’er’s interactions with me in the future naturally won’t have any regrets, but that way, the plot becomes illogical.’

‘Unless I forcefully explain that I really was reborn twice. Is that okay? Alright, I’ll just say I don’t know why it happened.’

‘Even though this will make them feel more guilty about me, it also gives them the chance to make amends to me. This is a very merciful choice. Alright, that’s decided.’

Thinking this, Ye Xuan showed a resigned expression, sighed, and said, “I… was originally pretending not to remember… to make you feel less guilty, but unexpectedly, it has been revealed now… yes, I remember everything about the future, I remember about Hu Qianzao, and about you, I also…”

“–!!!”

Upon hearing this, Yu Ling’er could no longer hold back, and tears streamed down her face.

So, he really remembered, just silently enduring all along–!!!
