Those who did wrong deserved punishment.
Back then, Li Xian had abandoned his beloved, betrayed his teachers, and cast aside all affection and loyalty.
So he had died.
His reputation in ruins, he had drowned in the river outside Soaring Dragon Ward.
All of this had been plotted and engineered by Yan Shui Rou, the mastermind behind the scenes.
After Li Xian became who he was now, he had not kept pursuing Yan Shui Rou.
Yet Yan Shui Rou had repeatedly plotted against him and tried to harm him.
Until this moment.
Having done wrong, she naturally deserved punishment too.
Just like the Li Xian who had been kicked grievously wounded and drowned in the river outside Soaring Dragon Ward.
She too had been severely injured by Li Xian, every meridian in her body destroyed, and thrown into the lotus pond.
Cause and effect came full circle, with a beginning and an end.
"Save me, Xiaoyu, save me..."
Splash!
Yan Shui Rou's terrified cries for help rang out together with the splash of her fall into the water.
Jiang Xiaoyu wanted to move.
But...
A single glance from Li Xian forced her to stop.
Watching Yan Shui Rou sink slowly into the lotus pond, unable to muster any strength with all her meridians severed, a trace of sorrow flashed through her eyes.
She had warned her so many times, but she...
In the end, she had walked her road to a dead end.
And met this fate.
Yan Shui Rou struggled desperately in the pond.
There were clearly so many people around her, many of them even guests on good terms with her whom she had specially invited to her Foundation Establishment celebration, yet not one dared step forward, even to say half a word on her behalf.
Nothing
