Chapter 1703 “Qiu Moon the Fox (1)”
Once he’s done speaking to the despairing Qiu Moon, the haze returns his attention back to the reason he’s here. Locking onto the gentle and kind man who’s furiously resisting the attacks still: “Are you going to keep getting in my way? That woman, is she worth your own life?”
Unfazed at the mention of death, State Teacher gives a blunt and direct reply: “Yes, she is everything to me, even if it means my death.”
“Fine, so be it. You and her can die as a pair of love birds!” Without mercy, the hazy raises his hand and coldly gives the order, “Kill them both, leave nothing behind. I want Di Cang to feel what it means to not have even a corpse to bury!”
“Yes, Lord!”
After the haze’s words came out, the momentum of those people became more and more monstrous, as if there were countless mountains coming down from the sky and attempting to crush them.
Under such powerful pressure, Qiu Moon’s body trembled with those pale lips quivering. Despite this, her eyes were very angry still, but more were that of panic and deep regret….
I was wrong, I shouldn’t have trusted this man in order to get her, the damage I’ve done will become irreparable at this rate. If only…. If only I had never existed, if I didn’t exist then she wouldn’t have been hurt….
Suddenly, Qiu Moon’s eyes shrank as she saw countless blades comprised of condensed air shoot over to Di Xiao Wan and State Teacher.
“No, don’t!” In her urge of desperation, the fox lady moved those legs without forethought and threw herself in front of the couple’s presence.
For that rash act of selflessness, the ending result was the cruel sound of piercing flesh and bone. It’s truly beautiful yet tragic at the same time. Imagine a gorgeous white dress worn by a frail maiden being stained with red, a polar contrasting color to match her end. What a sad but magnificent piece of art.
Still locked onto the demon princess, Qiu Moon murmurs out the only words that she could: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
I really didn’t mean to.
I just wanted you, but I… I didn’t want to hurt you.
“You…” Di Xiao Wan stared in amazement with those beautiful eyes, “aren’t you supposed to be with these people, why are you saving us?”
The attackers around them had stopped attacking due to this sudden interjection, but their frowns revealed enough to display the dissatisfaction they had towards Qiu Moon. They serve their lord and would do anything as commanded, but they are not mindless drones that likes to make a mess of things, and this situation was indeed spiraling into a mess.
The haze was likewise the same. He didn’t like turning this into a sob story of them being the villain. Waving his hand to signal his men to stop for now: “Qiu Moon, you betrayed me, why?”
Sprawled on the rose field with blood continuing to bleed out from her lethal wounds, Qiu Moon did not answer the haze and instead continued her final will towards the demon princess: “Princess, I was indeed trying to seduce State Teacher during these past few days while I was here, I only hope you won’t misunderstand him. It’s all my doing…”
Di Xiao Wan was honestly unsure on how to take this from the fox lady. That bleak voice left her pitying the other lady, but she’s also angry that they are in situation due to Qiu Moon’s very own doing.
“Why did you try to seduce State Teacher?” The demon princess asked the one dilemma she had.
