The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 829: Chapter 829: The Only Apology

She never thought there was anything wrong with what she was doing; from the beginning up to now, she believed it was just a matter of mutual benefit between her and Ling Yue.

She never imagined that in the last moment of her life, knowing that she had done so many heinous things, the person who stayed with her, unwavering to the end, would be Ling Yue.

Xia Ling was proud all her life, she never felt that she had wronged anyone.

She had never even thought that living might actually have any meaning.

But at this moment, oh no, at this very last moment of life and death, the warmth of companionship suddenly gave her a different feeling. She suddenly felt she was wrong, truly wrong. If she could have let go of that past, if she could have stopped making troubles after leaving Nanyao Country, peacefully living with Ling Yue, they would still be a divine couple. With the power of Lingyou Hall, no one could harm them; even if Su Yu hated her, he never actually did anything to her despite all these years.

In the days when she and Su Yu were at peace in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, they did meet, but on such occasions, Su Yu only said one thing to her.

The birth favor is repaid, you and I are no longer related.

She certainly understood him, his hatred for her was real, and his wish to sever all ties was also real, just wanting to remain unrelated in life and death.

Yet she was still unwilling to let go, seizing the opportunity to stir up trouble again.

In the end, she was utterly defeated and even cost Su Yu his life.

She truly did too many wrong things, beyond forgiveness.

Death was not regrettable.

Xia Ling’s tears fell like a stream, and Ling Yue could only feel the coldness on her face.

He wanted so much to comfort her, that regardless of the rights and wrongs of life and death, he was with her.

But before he could even speak, he heard a faint ”I’m sorry”, and then a tremendous heat engulfed them, leaving him no time to utter a word, as both he and Xia Ling were swallowed by the thick lava flow, without even feeling pain, all consciousness already obliterated.

In her entire life, Xia Ling, only at the very last moment, said, ”I’m sorry.”

I’m sorry.

But no matter how sincere the apology, or how many times she said it, nothing could be undone, nor could it make amends.

Right and wrong, in the end, had no meaning.

Love and hate, life and death, all end up empty.

None of them paid any attention to Xia Ji’s death. To them, Xia Ji’s death was more than deserved, but what was now making them almost collapse with tension was that old witch Xia Ji. She had actually implanted the Shengxue Pearl into Su Yu’s body. She was truly a madwoman, a lunatic!

Han Jing grasped Su Yu’s arm, held tight his palm, constantly channeling her own cold energy into Su Yu’s body, unable to think of any method to control the situation. But Su Yu must not die, he absolutely must not die!

She would not allow him to die!

She couldn’t think of any other solution; she could only instinctively recall what was said—that the Shengxue Pearl’s excess yang energy needed balancing. But now she had no time to consider balancing; wasn’t it just heat? Then surely, her body’s cold qi should be useful, should be useful, right?

Han Jing didn’t even have the time to panic, nor to listen to anyone say a word; she was entirely acting on instinct, making the most direct decisions she could make.
