Ning Yaoguang bit her lip. She held the sword in her hand, but the tip of the sword couldn't stop trembling.
Facing Ning Xu, all of her arrogance and presumptuousness disappeared like a flame that had been extinguished by water.
"Young Master, I've already left the Ning family. I don't want the glory of the Ning family, or the benefits that come with being a member of the Ning family. I'm not colluding with demons. It's just that the person I love has unfortunately fallen into the demonic path because of me. I just want to protect my lover for the rest of my life. We won't hurt or harm anyone. Is that not okay? "
Tears fell from Ning Yaoguang's eyes.
Her eyes, which had always been proud, were now filled with pleading.
She had no choice, because Xu Yilun and the Rootless Wood were both in Ning Xu's hands.
As long as Ning Xu willed it, Xu Yilun's soul would be destroyed.
Ning Yaoguang was a beauty to begin with. Even after being trapped in the Awl Formation for decades, her face hadn't aged at all.
Seeing such a beautiful woman cry so pitifully, even someone with a heart of stone would be softened.
However, there wasn't a trace of pity in Ning Xu's eyes.
As for the touching love story that she spoke of, he did not have the slightest interest in investigating it.
He looked down at Ning Yaoguang from above, his gaze cold. When he turned to the Rootless Wood in his hand, it turned into pure disgust.
"No matter how many reasons there are, demons are demons. They're dirty, ugly, and evil!
"If he really loves you, he should stick to his heart and become stronger with his own strength. He shouldn't let you join forces with demons.
"Ning Yaoguang, have you forgotten the number one iron rule of the Ning family?
"No matter who it is, as long as they have anything to do with the demons, they are the Ning family's first-class sinners. Kill!"
Ning Yaoguang's face was deathly pale, and her body swayed.
She knew!
How could she not know!
How could she forget how tragic that disaster had been, how bloody that massacre had been. Even after so many years had passed, how could she forget?
She heard that the bloody hell from twenty years ago had been repeated.
The Ning family's hatred for the demons was deeply carved into their bones, into their flesh and blood.
So, after escaping from the Awl Formation and learning that Ah Xu had fallen into the demonic path.
She made up her mind to forever forget that she was a member of the Ning clan.
She would rather live in seclusion with Ah Xu in the deep mountains and wilderness forever, give up her identity as a cultivator, and spend the rest of her life together.
However, Ning Yaoguang didn't expect that.
Ah Xu and the Rootless Wood had just started to merge when Ning Xu noticed.
Ning Yaoguang didn't even feel that much fear and despair when she was discovered by the marquis that Di Youdao mentioned.
But why was it Ning Xu?!
It was the young master of the Ning family!
He was someone she couldn't defy, and she didn't have the strength to do so.
Ning Xu threw the Rootless Wood in his hand onto the ground and said coldly, "Kill this demonic creature with your own hands, and I will take it that you have never betrayed the Ning family."
"No!!" Ning Yaoguang answered without hesitation.
Ning Xu's expression did not change in the slightest. "Then kill yourself in front of me. You are not fit to be a descendant of the Ning family! "
"Yaoguang, you destroyed the Rootless Tree!" Xu Yilun's agitated roar came from the Rootless Wood. "I should have died decades ago. Now that I'm alive, I'm neither a human nor a ghost. I'm just struggling at death's door. Yaoguang, you are the one who should live! Kill me, I beg you, kill me! "
