"The long-awaited judgment has finally arrived!"

Ye Xishui, hiding in a place no one could find, watched the Heavenly Curtain stir once more, about to play her own monologue.

Instead of the fear she'd felt before, there was now a sense of spiritual release.

After all, ever since Long Xiaoyao's monologue ended, Ye Xishui had a premonition that her turn would come soon.

When that happened, once all the truths behind the matter were exposed, she had no idea how massive the reaction would be.

She worried that Xiaoyao might make a mistake because of it.

But at the same time, Ye Xishui herself was also terrified, unwilling to face those things, which was why she had chosen to run away.

Yet the more she ran, the more agonizing it became for her.

Especially during this process of waiting for the final judgment!!

[My name is Ye Xishui. I am the owner of Twin Martial Souls.]

[My First Martial Soul is the Blood Soul Demon Puppet; my Second Martial Soul is the Light Phoenix. But I concealed the fact that I possessed a Second Martial Soul for over two hundred years, never daring to display it before others.]

[Because I am the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult, the disciple of Old Ghost Zhongli, a sinful Evil Soul Master!]

[In my youth, I stayed within the Holy Spirit Cult, training diligently, rarely venturing outside. The first time I traveled far in my life was to disguise my identity and participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.]

[Of course, my purpose in joining the tournament was not pure—it was to scout the outstanding talents of our generation for the Holy Spirit Cult.]

Ye Xishui's monologue was utterly unlike any other!

Just as it began with a brief introduction of her situation, it sent a thunderous shockwave through the major powers and the human world.

In just a few sentences, it completely overturned the impression of Ye Xishui built up from the monologues of the Dragon God Douluo and the Dragon Emperor Douluo.

"This lady doesn't seem like a good person~" a student at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy couldn't help but remark.

The opening of the Death God Douluo's monologue was simply too explosive. Starting off with such a special self-exposure was overwhelmingly shocking.

Combined with those clear, pointed words, anyone could tell Ye Xishui was problematic.

So everyone's focus at this moment wasn't on the long-hidden Second Martial Soul, but on Ye Xishui's true nature.

'Xishui was an Evil Soul Master from the very beginning?!'

'Even her meeting me back then was deliberate.'

Watching the Heavenly Curtain's revelations, Long Xiaoyao's eyes were filled with an overwhelming sense of disbelief.

He hadn't expected the truth he'd been seeking to come so suddenly!

And the content of that truth was so explosive!

How many fools could become Limit Douluo-level powerhouses?

So Long Xiaoyao quickly pieced together the clues from the monologue and completed his deduction.

If everything—from his and Mu En's first meeting with Xishui back then—was part of a deliberate conspiracy, then that was truly terrifying.

Learning the so-called truth mentioned earlier by the Heavenly Curtain caused a sharp pain in Long Xiaoyao's heart, as if he had suffered a fatal blow.

How could it not?

After all, over the years, Long Xiaoyao had willingly worked for Xishui and the Holy Spirit Cult, choosing to aid the wicked.

Wasn't it all because of the guilt he'd felt back then, leading him to seek so-called atonement?

But looking at the current situation, if everything was a lie, then it was too painful, too crushing for Long Xiaoyao.

At this moment, Long Xiaoyao seemed to understand why his future self would feel so powerless upon learning the so-called truth.

"Ah~" Long Xiaoyao only felt an inexplicable ache in his chest.

Compared to the deeply pained Long Xiaoyao, Mu En, who was in seclusion refining the Hundred Year Longevity Gu, was in a much better state.

First, he was in seclusion, so he didn't have to face this directly.

Second, compared to Long Xiaoyao, Mu En had already moved on.

So even if he learned this so-called truth after coming out of seclusion, his reaction wouldn't be as extreme as Long Xiaoyao's.

[At that Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, I met the two most important people of my life.]

[One was named Mu En, and the other was named Long Xiaoyao.]

[We were all young, and with our outstanding talents, it was easy for us to grow close. Besides, I had approached them with a purpose from the start.]

[So, I successfully made Mu En and Long Xiaoyao fall in love with me without realizing it. But in the process, I also genuinely came to like one of them.]

[That's right, I liked Long Xiaoyao. Xiaoyao was so handsome and dashing, lively in personality, fond of standing out, and possessed an unstoppable, domineering spirit. That was everything I liked.

Mu En was good too, but his personality was a bit dull. So I mostly saw Mu En as a big brother figure.]

[But I couldn't choose Xiaoyao, because Old Ghost Zhongli would never allow it. The power behind Xiaoyao was too thin. Choosing Mu En was more in line with the Holy Spirit Cult's interests.]

[After all, Big Brother Mu was born into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, came from Shrek Academy, had blood ties to the Heavenly Dragon Gate, and was the direct disciple of the current Sea God Pavilion Master. He was destined to become the Sea God Pavilion Master and a top-tier powerhouse of the continent.

If someone like that could be controlled by the Holy Spirit Cult, not only would the cult's strength rise to another level, but it would also gain better cover.]

[So, under Old Ghost Zhongli's coercion, I had no choice but to choose Mu En.]

[At the same time, it was precisely because of this that a heartbroken Xiaoyao chose to leave us and wander alone outside.]

[The only thing that brings me some comfort is that Xiaoyao is very strong, so nothing unexpected should happen to him.]

'Xishui...'

Seeing this, Long Xiaoyao's anger and helplessness faded considerably.

He never imagined that Xishui's choice back then between him and Mu En had such hidden circumstances.

At this moment, Long Xiaoyao absolutely loathed the Holy Spirit Cult, loathed that damned Old Ghost Zhongli.

If not for that dead-as-dirt bastard's interference, wouldn't he and Xishui have ended up together back then?

Wouldn't the three of them have avoided all the subsequent tragedies?

"Ahh..." Seeing this, Ye Xishui seemed to recall those years.

It was precisely that one mistake back then that completely led to the tragedies that followed.

Two people who clearly loved each other couldn't be together, and it even dragged good big brother Mu En into that vortex.

She truly was a woman burdened with grievous sin!!
