The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 513: Chapter 513: The Person Ling Xiang Doesn’t Want to Meet (2)

In his memories, Mother was a gentle woman with a pair of clear, dust-free eyes. She came from a prestigious family with excellent upbringing, although her cultivation wasn’t high. At first, Father treated her well, but later, he grew tired of her, began to neglect her, and ultimately, she died with unfulfilled longing on a snowy night.

Since then, no one has ever smiled at him with such gentleness, and he never saw eyes so clear and pure again.

From that moment, his heart turned cold. He devoted himself to martial arts training, indifferent to everything. He wasn’t trying to prove anything; he just felt that apart from cultivation, nothing else in this world mattered to him.

After being defeated by Su Yunpeng, he challenged him several times. Suddenly, life had a new goal and meaning: to defeat his rival.

He never won, but he wasn’t upset; instead, he felt happy.

Until five years ago, Su Yunpeng suddenly disappeared. When he appeared before everyone again, he didn’t recognize anyone. He had changed, becoming silent and cold. When he looked at him, it was as if he were looking at a soulless shell.

He never cared about other people’s affairs, but when Su Yunpeng became like that, he strangely felt a sense of loss.

Then he inadvertently overheard a conversation between Father and Xia Ji. It was Xia Ji who had inserted ten Soul Stabilizing Needles into Su Yunpeng’s body. For the first time, he quarreled with his father, questioning why they did such a thing.

But no one cared about his anger, just as he never cared about their anger before.

From then on, he never challenged Su Yunpeng again. He even didn’t want to see him, for he was no longer the aloof, sharp-tongued Su Yunpeng he used to be, and it was the people from Lingyou Hall who made him this way.

This was something that even someone like Ling Xiang, who took nothing to heart, couldn’t let go of.

So in recent years, he suddenly became silent, no longer competing with others, and didn’t appear before Su Yunpeng either.

This time, for the Nine Sects Sword Meeting, he didn’t have to come, but rather than not wanting to appear before Su Yunpeng himself, he didn’t want his father and Xia Ji to appear before Su Yunpeng, so he came.

He came, yet he didn’t want to appear before him, so he didn’t stay at Wengshan Sect. Firstly, he found it uninteresting, and secondly, there was an unresolved knot in his heart.

Until he saw Xiao Xue’s eyes, which were clean and clear, he suddenly felt a bright and warm illusion in his heart.

Just like someone who has been living in an icy world suddenly seeing sunlight.

A little blinding, yet also a little yearning.

On an impulse, he hugged her, and impulsively, when she said she wanted to see someone who looked like her, he took her away.

He never cared about other people’s matters, but he wasn’t stupid. He saw at a glance who Xiao Xue’s face resembled. Even if he didn’t know if there was any real relationship between them, or as Xiao Xue said, this could be her father. None of this mattered.

What mattered was that she wanted to see, so he wanted to bring her there.

On the way to the Wengshan Sect, he didn’t go back to the courtyard prepared for Lingyou Hall but took Xiao Xue directly to the courtyard where the Spirit Flame Sect was temporarily resting.

In recent years, Su Yunpeng rarely appeared before others, so this time, his appearance was a rare occurrence.
