Chapter 65: The Embarrassing True Immortal
“Ye Xuan, I’m sorry, please forgive me… No, I don’t ask for your forgiveness, just do whatever you want with me… I wronged you!!!” Yu Ling’er never imagined that what started as an issue between Mo Qingxue and Ye Xuan would eventually involve her.
Why was her past self so foolish, not only abandoning Ye Xuan but also not giving him a chance to explain, and then blindly supporting Mo Qingxue? She even said such outrageous things to Ye Xuan!
But no matter how much she begged for forgiveness, the harm she had caused to Ye Xuan seemed irreparable. The debt she owed to Ye Xuan was too great.
On the other side, Elder Qingxue also had tears streaming down her face. The more triumphant she was in the past, the more cruel her words to Ye Xuan were, the clearer she understood the extent of the hurt she had caused Ye Xuan, and the greater the debt she felt she owed him.

In the scene, Ye Xuan was aware that Xuan Lingzi was actually Jiang Ling’er in disguise. He had created the character of Jiang Ling’er on a whim, and now he wondered if Jiang Ling’er was truly Yu Ling’er’s past life.
Was it the script first, or destiny? These questions crossed his mind, but he quickly realized that with his current abilities, such thoughts were futile. He decided to continue the act.
He feigned shock at the sight of Mo Qingxue and Jiang Ling’er in the sky. “Qingxue… listen to my explanation… I will let you punish me after I explain… Everything I did to you had a reason!!!” he pleaded.
But Mo Qingxue was unyielding. “No need… I won’t kill you today, but I will return. I swear, if I don’t kill you with my own hands, I will be doomed to eternal damnation!!!” she declared, vanishing into the sky with Jiang Ling’er, leaving an echoing threat behind.
Ye Xuan, with a face full of sorrow and tears, looked up at the sky. “Why… why won’t you listen to my explanation?!!”
He knew the more pain he showed now, the bigger the impact on Qingxue when she watched this scene in the future, and also a way to torment Yu Ling’er.
Although in this era, Ye Xuan didn’t know the expressions of the two women watching this scene, he could imagine. They must be crying in regret–!
———
“Why won’t she listen to his explanation?!!!” At this moment, outside the scene, Elder Qingxue wished she could drag her past self out and severely reprimand her. If she had listened to Ye Xuan’s explanation back then, perhaps everything would have been different.
Or even if she had listened, she might not have believed it. But she clearly had the opportunity to know the truth and missed it so carelessly. Now, in Elder Qingxue’s eyes, only regret remained.
In her heart, there was only guilt. In her memory, Ye Xuan was always composed and calm. Even when he bullied her, he always did so methodically. She had never seen Ye Xuan so heartbroken. At this moment, even as an immortal, Elder Qingxue felt dizzy and almost fainted.
Yu Ling’er had already been crying uncontrollably. If her past self had been willing to speak more to Ye Xuan, things might have been different. But not only did Mo Qingxue not believe Ye Xuan, her past self didn’t either.
The two people Ye Xuan loved and cared about the most had simultaneously hurt him, causing him the deepest pain.
“Brother Ye Xuan… wuwu…” Yu Ling’er, hugging Ye Xuan’s feet, cried out loud, “I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”
Although she had no recollection of being Jiang Ling’er, thinking that she might have been her past life brought back memories of when she had let down Ye Xuan’s true feelings. Feeling this connection, she naturally became even more heartbroken.
Seeing Yu Ling’er in front of him, Ye Xuan shook his head with a wry smile and helped her up, saying, “Silly girl, why are you crying? Although Elder Qingxue says I am my past self, I don’t feel like it at all… Maybe I’m not the same person as him.”
“This matter is definitely not wrong,” said Elder Qingxue at that moment, her eyes red and face tear-streaked.
“Keep watching and you’ll understand… It’s all my fault… I’ve been wrong from the start… I’m sorry, Ye Xuan…” Saying this, she also weakly knelt down on the ground. She even wanted to beg Ye Xuan for forgiveness.
But thinking that Ye Xuan still didn’t know anything about the current situation, begging for his forgiveness at this moment seemed shameless. She had to at least wait until Ye Xuan had seen all the things she did afterward.
Elder Qingxue was wrong… She had always been wrong!
Elder Qingxue knew what she mentioned. Because, in Mo Qingxue’s script, it wasn’t the last time she met Ye Xuan. She was still to come and take revenge on him! How could Ye Xuan miss such a long operation space? Did you think the plot was over?
In fact, it’s just beginning! Next, it’s truly Ye Xuan’s script! He hadn’t forgotten that the more he influenced the heroine’s heart, the more rewards he would receive. The reward this time must be very generous!

“Hehe, who would have thought, Miss Mo, from now on, you are my Dao companion,” Jiang Ling’er said to Mo Qingxue as they returned to the mountain they had left earlier.
She reached out and gently lifted Mo Qingxue’s chin, smiling at her. Jiang Ling’er felt a mix of satisfaction and sorrow upon seeing Ye Xuan’s heartbroken state.
She was hurt because Ye Xuan didn’t recognize her and probably had forgotten her by now. Jiang Ling’er’s name wasn’t mentioned in Mo Qingxue’s past stories. This realization pained her heart. Wanting to hide her sadness, she teased Mo Qingxue to distract herself.
Just then, Mo Qingxue suddenly said, “Actually… you are a woman, aren’t you?!”
Jiang Ling’er was stunned and incredulously asked, “How did you know?”
Mo Qingxue explained, “I’ve known since you offered to carry me on your sword to confront Ye Xuan. You don’t seem as tall as you appear, and there’s a feminine scent about you…”
“Besides, why else would I brazenly suggest such shameless things? Even though Ye Xuan treated me poorly, it’s between him and me. How could I just casually get involved with another man?”
Jiang Ling’er was shocked, realizing Mo Qingxue had seen through her disguise. She admitted feeling disdainful when Mo Qingxue volunteered to be with her, now understanding she had underestimated Mo Qingxue. After all, Mo Qingxue had no obligation to her; it was just Jiang Ling’er’s offer to help.
Mo Qingxue, looking at the Daoist in front of her, asked, “Why did you decide to disguise yourself as a man?”
Jiang Ling’er, showing a flash of anger, retorted, “Why should women be oppressed by men in this world? That’s why I chose to become a man, and I’ll never be a woman again.”
Mo Qingxue, surprised by the response, wondered, “Could it be… you also…”
Jiang Ling’er interrupted, clarifying she hadn’t experienced anything like Mo Qingxue’s situation. She decided not to add to Mo Qingxue’s sorrow, instead sharing, “I just met a heartless person and have decided never to see him again.”
Mo Qingxue remained silent, not knowing what to say next, leading to a moment of quiet between them.
