Chapter 113: A Brave Man Sheds Tears, Ye Xuan is Innocent

“Anyone who speaks of tonight’s incident will not be spared by me—!” With that command from Hu Wanquan, whose body was taken over by Yu Tieshan. Ye Xuan’s martial abilities were disabled, and he was locked up in the firewood shed. At this moment, he was less than an ordinary person, lying quietly in the firewood shed, not uttering another sound. Images from the past surfaced in his mind. Yu Tieshan breaking his martial bones with a palm strike, Yu Ling’er’s pale face, unable to bear seeing him in pain, and Hu Qian’er looking at him with deep-seated hatred.

“Was it really worth it to save someone unrelated to me, causing Ling’er to worry about me… and now I’ve become disabled?” In the dead of night, looking at the beams of the firewood shed, such a question inevitably arose in Ye Xuan’s mind.

“She even hates me to the bone…”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s inner thoughts, those present from the Jade Fox Palace also couldn’t help but feel the same. Yes, even though Ye Xuan saved Hu Qian’er, she looked down on him and even hated him to the bone. Although it wasn’t Hu Qian’er’s fault, for Ye Xuan, it was his life-saving actions that were repaid with deep hatred. That was the reality. Even if someone is willing to sacrifice themselves to save others, when the person they save not only doesn’t appreciate it but also detests them…

Does he really still have the courage to stick to his convictions?

“Ye Xuan must be regretting it now?”

“To be honest… even I would regret it in this situation. Helping others is not always about getting something in return, but being hated by the person you risked your life to save is just too painful.” Thus spoke the people of the Jade Fox Palace, all turning their eyes towards Hu Qianzao. Their palace lord from a past life really owed Ye Xuan’s past life a lot.

“…”

Seeing everyone looking at her, Hu Qianzao, who was feeling sorrowful for the past Ye Xuan, couldn’t help feeling speechless:

“Don’t all look at me, I didn’t do this—!!!” Clearly, she had accepted the fact that her past life indeed owed a lot to Ye Xuan. It was her who caused Ye Xuan such immense grievance—!!!

Thinking this, she felt an inexplicable sense of indebtedness. Was it because of the debts her past life owed that Ye Xuan came to collect in this life? No, that’s impossible—!!! The affairs of a past life, after all, were just that, unrelated to her present self. With this thought, she took a deep breath.

Her gaze then returned to the scene within the image. Ye Xuan must have regretted it… He surely felt that doing these things was not worth it.

“Is it worth it?” Ye Xuan asked himself, and then, with a resolved expression, affirmed: “It is worth it, very worth it… Living a life, just a mere hundred years, in this limited time, doing what I want to do, that is what makes it worthwhile—! I do not want to spend the rest of my life regretting not saving an innocent person, even if saving them might cost me my own life. But, it is still worth it—!!!”

“—!!!” Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the people of the Jade Fox Palace looked up to him in admiration. Ye Xuan, he had no regrets. Even more, his attitude became even firmer than before. In this world, there are many who do good deeds, but those like Ye Xuan, who sacrifice without regret, are indeed few. Ye Xuan should not have to endure such injustice… All he did was because he couldn’t bear to see Hu Qian’er harmed.

However, the next day, early in the morning, Hu Qian’er came to the firewood shed with a bunch of servants. Looking at Ye Xuan still lying on the pile of firewood, she sneered:

“Someone, drag this shameless little pervert out—!” “Yes—!” Several servants rushed forward, dragging Ye Xuan out harshly from the firewood shed. Once, although Ye Xuan was of low birth, he was a young man with high martial skills. Even if ten more servants came, they couldn’t handle him. Now, in the hands of these servants, he had no strength to resist, nor did he resist. Being dragged on the ground like this, a trail of blood was left under Ye Xuan’s feet, dragging on for a long time.

That trail of blood, in the eyes of those from the Jade Fox Palace, was so startling. “…”

Hu Qianzao watched the scene unfold and couldn’t help but show a look of distress. But, thinking about what her past self was about to do, she grew even more worried for Ye Xuan of the past.

Previously, she had reveled in seeing Ye Xuan from her past life beaten to a bloody pulp, scarred and crippled. But now, she wished she could leap into the scene and slap her past self fiercely, to reveal the whole truth.

However, she was powerless to do anything but watch. Watching helplessly as good people were framed by villains, and the ignorant ones looked on with glee as they abetted the villains in bullying the good—it was truly unbearable.

Her past self, completely unaware, looked on at Ye Xuan with a cold laugh.

Cold laugh my ass—!!! At this moment, even Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but inwardly curse at her past self.

This foolish person, thinking she knew the truth, sided with the villains against the good. It was suffocating, especially since that person was her past self. This made her feel even more like she wanted to slap her own face…

“Hit him hard, very hard. If something happens, I’ll take responsibility. After hitting him, break his legs and send him to the officials—!” At that moment, Hu Qian’er ordered people to drag Ye Xuan to the street, and in front of everyone, brutally beat him.

“Ouch, isn’t that too harsh, Miss Hu? What did this man do?!” At that time, someone curiously asked Hu Qian’er.

“Everyone, listen up—!” Hu Qian’er looked at the crowd, a smirk forming on her lips, and she announced: “This man is a despicable thief, a lecher. He stole money from my Hu family and even planned to assault our maidservant, caught red-handed. You tell me, shouldn’t he be punished?!”

“What?!” The surrounding crowd became enraged, staring at Ye Xuan and shouting: “He should be beaten, such a man truly deserves it—!!!”

“I’ll do it—!!!” Saying this, a bystander rushed forward and viciously kicked Ye Xuan.

“Hit him.” For a moment, the street was filled with disdainful glares at Ye Xuan, looks of contempt, and even a little girl, under her mother’s guidance, threw rotten eggs at Ye Xuan.

“Listen, daughter, the worst people in the world are these kinds of lechers; they are best at tarnishing a girl’s reputation. We must not be soft on such people.” The aunt told the little girl.

“I know, mom—!” The little girl, holding an egg, threw it at Ye Xuan’s face.

Crack, the egg burst on his face.

“Good—!!!” Countless people cheered around them.

And Ye Xuan, facing the ridicule, disdain, thrown rotten vegetables, and the accusations and contempt from the crowd, even a man as resolute as him couldn’t help but show a trace of tears in his eyes.

He didn’t blame these people, but he felt deeply wronged.

He hadn’t done anything wrong, yet why was he being treated like this?

“Yo? You still have the face to cry?!” At that moment, Hu Qian’er approached Ye Xuan, speaking with pride:

“Little pervert… dreaming of marrying me, grandma—! This is exactly what you deserve—!!!”

“—!!!” Watching the scene in the image where countless people cheered, Hu Qian’er mocked, and Ye Xuan helplessly shed tears.

In the Jade Fox Palace, some sentimental young girls couldn’t hold back their tears. 𝐟re𝚎𝘄𝚎𝐛𝚗o𝚟el.c𝐨𝚖

“Don’t bully him, he is innocent—!!!”

“Wuu, Ye Xuan is so pitiful—!!!”

Even some male disciples of the Jade Fox Palace couldn’t help shedding tears.

Ah, Ye Xuan, why did it have to end like this? The palace lord of the past really committed sins.
