Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness

Chapter 20 - The Terror After Falling into Demonhood

Chapter 20: The Terror After Falling into Demonhood

Watching the unfolding scenes, Yu Ling’er found herself unable to stop her tears. Despite being looked down upon by her, misunderstood, wronged, and accused by everyone, Ye Xuan harbored no resentment towards her.

He fell into demonhood solely to save her. He truly loved her so deeply… But what had she given him in return? Cold words, disdainful looks, and inner contempt? At this moment, Yu Ling’er loathed herself as never before. Why couldn’t she see his sincere heart and mistook it for wickedness?

Beidou Star Lord had given her a life to make up for her past debts to Ye Xuan. But what she returned was hurtful words and a cold curse. She not only failed to repay him but also wanted to kill him. Yu Ling’er, you don’t deserve to be human—!!! Even though her body was immobile, Yu Ling’er’s will had already cried a river of tears…

Watching Yu Ling’er’s reaction, Ye Xuan sighed inwardly. Honestly, anyone locked in a room, forced to watch a heart-wrenching drama without the option to leave until it’s finished, would be driven to tears. The story could have ended here, with Ye Xuan completely exonerated.

The protagonist, Yu Shou, was thoroughly vilified by Ye Xuan. Even Yu Ling’er was moved to relentless tears by him. Ending the story at this point would surely have moved Yu Ling’er, and she would likely no longer want to kill him. But the system had mentioned… The reward is determined by the impact on the female lead, meaning the greater the impact, the better the reward.

Moreover, Ye Xuan didn’t know the extent of the system’s rewards, so he naturally aimed for perfection. Although his story had whitewashed him, the real world wouldn’t change because of his story. That is to say, returning to the real world, all the plot would immediately be exposed. Ending the story now would be a waste of so much potential content. So, Ye Xuan continued writing.

“Hehehe, very good, boy, I will help you achieve your wish…” As Ye Xuan accepted it, endless black demonic qi suddenly erupted from his body, turning him ferocious. He had merged with the Heart Demon, which, though not skilled in combat, excelled in manipulating hearts.

Theoretically, even if it possessed Ye Xuan, it wouldn’t be able to exert much power. But… The Heart Demon itself was a high-level demon, against which even regular immortals were powerless, let alone these people here, with the most powerful among them, Qingyan, being only at the stage of Dao Integration realm.

“What is this… Yu Xuan, you demon—!!! You’re actually cultivating demonic qi, practicing demonic arts—!!!” Seeing the demonic qi rising from Ye Xuan, Qingyan was both shocked and furious.

Everyone present was stunned by the terrifying aura emanating from Ye Xuan, who was originally just a mortal. Apart from Qingyan and his wife Qingshuang, who could stand before Ye Xuan, others couldn’t withstand the terrible demonic qi and trembled in fear.

Especially Yu Ling’er, she never imagined Ye Xuan could be so terrifying. With her current cultivation, resisting the demonic qi of a higher demon was naturally impossible… So, she was struck by the demonic qi and fainted. Even her stronger senior brothers couldn’t bear it.

Watching the scene unfold, Yu Ling’er couldn’t stop her tears from rolling down. Even though she looked down on him, and he was misunderstood, wronged, and accused by everyone, Ye Xuan bore no resentment towards her.

He fell into demonhood just to save her. His love for her was so genuine… But how had she repaid him? With cold words, disdainful glances, and contempt from the depths of her heart. At that moment, Yu Ling’er hated herself more than ever before. Why couldn’t she see his sincerity and mistook it for cruelty?

Yu Shou, the protagonist, with a higher cultivation level, could bear the demonic aura. Watching the scene before him, he couldn’t help but show a face of horror. He didn’t understand why the person he had once toyed with had suddenly become so powerful.

Could Ye Xuan kill him? No, that couldn’t be; Elder Qingyan and his wife would protect him. Yu Shou could only think of Elder Qingyan and his wife as his lifeline, unconsciously hiding behind them, not even glancing at the fainted Yu Ling’er.

In the original story, Yu Xuan started practicing demonic arts after accidentally entering a secret realm in Taihua Mountain and making a pact with a trapped demon there. Ye Xuan, however, changed the script, depicting the fusion with the inner demon to directly gain immense power.

Since he had the script of the female lead, he knew exactly how she perceived the world. Many plot elements were therefore adjusted to align with her perception. The original Yu Xuan obtained demonic power through cooperation with a demon, but Ye Xuan chose a method the female lead could accept. As long as the script was coherent, the system would make the story consistent.

Watching everything in the scene, Yu Ling’er couldn’t help but show a look of heartache. She knew that soon, the moment she least wanted to see in her life would appear. Ye Xuan, having become a demon, disabled Yu Shou, killed her parents, and her senior brothers.

On this day, all the people most important to her would die. The person who treated her the best would become her sworn enemy. And the person with the most malicious intentions towards her would become her last resort.

All of this was because she didn’t trust Ye Xuan from the beginning. She brought it upon herself. Yu Ling’er, you truly got what you deserved! Thinking this, tears once again flowed from Yu Ling’er’s eyes. The next scene was something she couldn’t bear to watch, but she had no choice.

Ye Xuan, now engulfed in demonic Qi, saw the world completely differently. Having fused with the inner demon, he gained its consciousness. Knowing that Taihua Mountain was filled with immortals and was not a place to linger, he didn’t bother explaining to his master and mistress and directly targeted Yu Shou.

“Ah—!!!” Yu Shou didn’t expect Ye Xuan to become so powerful that he lost the will to fight. He cried out for help: “Elder Qingyan, Mistress Qingshuang, save me—!!!”

“Evil disciple, stop your wickedness—!!!” Seeing Ye Xuan about to hurt someone, Qingyan and his wife Qingshuang acted simultaneously. Qingyan practiced Taihua Sword Technique, while Qingshuang practiced Taihua Magic. Qingshuang took the lead, wielding a sword to block Ye Xuan, her sword Qu shining like falling stars. Meanwhile, Qingshuang conjured a long zither, playing notes that transformed into an ice dragon attacking Ye Xuan.

However, Ye Xuan, now as swift as lightning, avoided both Qingyan’s sword and Qingshuang’s dragon. In the next moment, he was already in front of Yu Shou. “Bet you didn’t expect this, Senior Brother Yu Shou, that one day you’d be like an ant before me,” Ye Xuan said coldly.

“Evil disciple, stop—!!!” Elder Qingyan and Mistress Qingshuang tried to intervene, but demonic energy suddenly enveloped them, binding them and rendering them immobile. The disparity in cultivation was too vast, and in a flash, they were restrained by the demonized Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan, however, ignored them and focused on Yu Shou.

Yu Shou, trembling with fear, never imagined Ye Xuan could become so powerful and terrifying. “Junior Brother Yu Xuan, don’t kill me, we’re from the same sect… If you kill me, Taihua Immortal Gate won’t let you off—!!!” he pleaded.

“Want to live? Fine,” Ye Xuan said coldly, waving his hand. A ball of dark, abyss-like purple energy smashed into Yu Shou. Boom—!!! The purple ball exploded into a massive light orb, enveloping and shattering Yu Shou’s bones and destroying his cultivation. He screamed in agony within the purple light.

“You… you’ve crippled his cultivation? Do you know what you’re doing?!!” Qingyan yelled at Ye Xuan , shocked that his disciple, who lacked a spiritual root, had suddenly turned into a demon with such terrifying power.

“Master, of course, I know what I am doing,” Ye Xuan replied. “Please watch carefully.”

“Pah, you don’t deserve to call me master—!!!” Qingyan spat in anger upon hearing Ye Xuan still addressing him as master.

But Ye Xuan no longer paid attention to him and instead focused on Yu Shou, saying, “How did you like that experience just now? Want to try it again?”

“—!!!” Yu Shou, already in excruciating pain, quickly shook his head, pleading, “No, no, I don’t want to try again, please spare me—!!!”

“Confess all the despicable things you’ve done, right here in front of my master and mistress,” Ye Xuan commanded. “Then maybe I’ll spare your life.” “—!!!”

Yu Shou’s face turned pale upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words. He never expected that the once easily manipulated ant-like nobody had become a terrifying existence capable of easily taking his life. The demonic energy emanating from Ye Xuan was horrifying to the extreme, sending chills down his spine.
