"What's wrong? You just have to stand in front of me." Theo's voice echoed in her ears.

However, Yue Yi could only scream while clutching her thighs. "Aaaahhhh!"

The excruciating pain overwhelmed her brain. How could she even stand in front of Theo when her legs were cut?

"Do you think you will be fine after doing this to me?" Yue Yi screamed with a distorted expression. She wanted to endure the pain, but this was the limit.

"What did I do to you?" Theo tilted his head in confusion. His face looked like that of an innocent kid who didn't know how to even tell a lie.

"You—" Yue Yi suddenly stopped when the pain suddenly vanished as though it never existed in the first place. When she glanced at her feet, nothing actually happened. Her legs were still intact. "Huh?"

Yue Yi was stunned, unable to describe her current feeling. However, her legs soon felt something grabbing them.

"!!!" Yue Yi thought that Theo had done it again and hurriedly looked down, but nothing was there. She indeed felt the hand grabbing her foot, but she couldn't see anything.

Besides, when did she even come to this dark place? The soil had even been replaced with blood. The rotten smell soon entered her body, making her wonder how many bodies had been buried here.

Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, she didn't remember the hand that grabbed her foot this time. She tried to stomp the area around her foot to hit this invisible hand, but nothing happened.

Instead, the blood simply splashed and covered her legs.

It was at this time that she noticed that the blood that was supposed to hit her leg suddenly hit something invisible.

"Huh?!" Yue Yi's face became pale as she hurriedly kicked that invisible thing, only to feel nothing. Still, the blood splashed from that kick started spraying the invisible thing and revealed its true form. It was indeed a hand.

But whenever she tried to hit it, her foot simply passed through. Even the blood didn't disappear.

"What is this?" Yue Yi gasped, almost tripping. If not for her timely reaction, she would have fallen on her butt, covering her body in this disgusting blood.

More and more hands started emerging from the blood and grabbing her body, starting from the legs to her head.

"Wha—!" Yue Yi panicked. She didn't know what happened. If it were the usual Yue Yi, she would have looked at the culprit, Theo, but for some reasons, it didn't feel like she was aware of it. "Go away!"

There was an unprecedented fear that she had never felt before. It wasn't because of death. Instead, there was something far creepier from these hands.

"NO!" Yue Yi screamed as her body refused to move. However, one of the hands seemed to cover her mouth. Then, a pair of hands plugged her ears, removing all kinds of sounds. It felt like she was in the middle of a silent night, with only the ringing sound of her brain echoing in her ears.

The moment the hands reached her eyes, instead of darkness, an image actually flashed right before her as though she had experienced it herself.

In that image, Yue Yi was on her knees while crying, "Why? Why are you doing this?"

In front of her was her master, tied to a tree. Her clothes had been removed, her mouth was gagged, and her eyes had been gouged. Next to her stood an unknown man, whom Yue Yi seemed to know.

The man said, "I have told you that you're not going to get away after humiliating me."

"But…" Yue Yi gritted her teeth. "It was only a spar. You even gave me three moves first. However, you actually cheated and started attacking me after the first blow. Then, you were the one trying to kill me at first, while I only tried to beat you up. And it was only a spar! How can you be so ruthless?"

The man snorted. "A spar? Who are you to claim such a ridiculous thing? You are merely a nobody. Since you dare to defy me, you, your master, and everyone you care for will be dead."

"No!" Yue Yi screamed because the man torched the tree, burning her master slowly.

"Aaaahhh!" The agonizing cries of her master broke her heart, but Yue Yi couldn't do anything. There were a lot of people restraining her. Continue reading stories on My Virtual Library Empire

When the flame engulfed her master, the man ordered, "Do whatever you want with her."

"Huh?" Yue Yi was confused at first, but her memory somehow became fuzzy. At first, she felt like the hands were just her imagination, but when she turned around, she could see men looking at her vulgarly. "No… no… NOOOOO!"

As she shouted at the top of her lungs, she ended up closing her eyes for a second. It was at that time, the scene changed once again.

"Eh?!" Yue Yi looked around and realized that she was back in the blood pool. When she looked at the front, she saw her master getting tied into the same trunk. But this time, her entire body was bleeding as the blood flowed into the ground.

"Yue Yi…" Her master looked at her weakly.

"Ma-Master!" Yue Yi crawled toward her, but her hands tripped on something. "Ah! What?!"

Yue Yi was confused, but her gaze was still focused on her dying master.

Her master said, "Yue Yi… I already told you that you should be polite to others no matter who they are. I was a sect master of one of the major sects in this world, but I had reminded you over and over again that there was always someone stronger than you. Why did you not follow my teaching and provoke that person? Was it because you thought he was easy to bully? And what happened after that? If only you were polite to strangers no matter their cultivations, this would never happen.

"Was?" The line that riled her up was her master's introduction. She was a sect master?

The moment she realized it, she couldn't help but look at the thing that tripped her hands earlier. It wasn't a thing, it was the body of someone she knew.

"First Elder?!" Yue Yi gasped and looked around. The bodies of every person in the sect were lying on the ground as their blood turned this world into a pool of blood.

"Yue Yi…" The first elder's voice echoed weakly in her ears.

"First Elder?!" Yue Yi grabbed her hand, trying to call her.

"If only… If only…" The first elder's voice became weaker and weaker, so Yue Yi had to lower her upper body and place her ear in front of the first elder's mouth. But that was when she heard something she didn't want to believe. "If only… you didn't provoke… No, if only… you didn't exist. The sect…"

The first elder died before telling her the whole thing, but the message was clear. Everything was her fault.

"I…" Yue Yi looked at her hands, covered in blood. It felt like something inside her just broke. There was a nostalgic feeling when she experienced all this.

"What is this… Why do I keep feeling that I have done exactly the same thing as that man?" Yue Yi clutched her head. "I can't remember. It seems that I have forgotten something important."

Yue Yi gritted her teeth, trying her best to remember. Unfortunately, she never recovered that memory. The only thing she remembered was that she had done something extremely bad and caused everyone to die. It was her fault.

It was her fault. It was her fault. It was her fault. It was her fault.

Those words kept echoing in her ears.

"Aaaaahhhh!" Yue Yi let out a loud cry, trying to stop these thoughts from appearing. But no matter how much she closed her ears, overwhelmed the sound with her voice, or even distracted her mind, those words kept ringing in her head. "No… It's not… It's not… It's… my fault."

Yue Yi looked at herself in horror. When she looked at the blood, she somehow saw a reflection of herself. But her image couldn't resemble that of a living being.

Her eyes were gone, and blood flowed out of every hole on her head like hereveryone else ears, eye sockets, nose, and mouth. The image made her think that she should have been like this instead of everyone.

"I… I am sorry. I'm sorry. Please forgive me." Yue Yi didn't know what was going on anymore. The only thing she knew was that she was at fault.

At this moment, another memory flashed in her head. It was the battle between Yue Yi and Mia, the very battle in which Yue Yi did the exact same thing as she claimed the man had done—that resulted in the purge of her sect.

However, the battle ended with Theo telling her to stand in front of him if she wanted him to apologize.

Earlier, she thought this was something she ought to do so that she could see Theo begging for his dear life.

"What's wrong? You just have to stand in front of me."

Theo's voice echoed once again, making her take a step forward. Soon, her body froze as she couldn't help but ask, "Did I… No, I did something wrong. Why would I want him to apologize? Shouldn't I be the one to apologize? If I stand in front of him now and continue cultivating in this way, won't my sect get destroyed sooner or later? Wait, did I not say 'again'? What were those images then? A heavenly destiny?"

Yue Yi felt a few more images bothering her head as though she didn't want to remember them.

It was the image of her when she was just a kid. Back then, the sect master brought her back to the sect and she began to show her talent.

"Since when…" Yue Yi muttered. In the past, she came to the sect because the sect master pitied her. She was humble and tried to get along with everyone.

But once her talent bloomed, she distanced herself from others and started looking down on people. It was simply because of her talent and her identity as a disciple of the sect master.

"I… I have made a grave mistake. I have been drowned in my own power. What if my talent is gone? What if Master didn't take me with her? What if the sect is destroyed? Do I actually have something that I can be proud of?" Yue Yi fell into deep thought.

She just realized she was empty. Everything she currently possessed was not hers. It was simply given, no, lent to her because of her current identity.

It made her remember the time when she was only a kid. She just wanted to get along with everyone while making an effort of her own.

"I…" Yue Yi abruptly stopped.

Theo's voice once again rang in her ears. "That's right. What you currently have is merely an illusion that can easily disappear. Once they're gone, what do you have?"

"What I do have…" Yue Yi's mind became serene, trying to remember what she originally had with her. It felt like she was about to grasp something, so she simply closed her eyes and answered that question in her heart.

Without her realizing it, the Spiritual Qi in her body started vibrating as more and more energy rushed into her body.

Suddenly, all that energy erupted.

2-Star Foundation Establishment.

3-Star…

4-Star…

5-Star Foundation Establishment.

"Did I…" Yue Yi looked at her body, not expecting that she had broken through several levels.

"It seems that you have found your true self."

"!!!" Yue Yi raised her head, looking at Theo. He actually made her breakthrough several times through enlightenment. She remembered how she treated them earlier, yet, Theo actually gave her this opportunity.

All the memories from earlier remained intact. She was at the rock bottom earlier, but Theo actually pulled her up, showing her path.

To think that she had done something so terrible to him and his daughter… She was completely speechless. She was a horrible person.

Not only did she disrespect Theo, but she almost harmed his daughter.

The way she viewed Theo changed abruptly. Theo looked like a sovereign coming from the heavens. He was so kind, forgiving, and caring.

She didn't know why, but the dark world filled with blood seemed to have warmed up. A ray of light pierced through the gap in the sky, illuminating Theo.

The normal chair Theo sat on looked like a divine throne.

In her eyes, Theo completely looked like the heavenly king that descended into this world.

Once again, Theo said the same words: "What's wrong? You only have to stand in front of me."

Her body started moving on its own, walking toward Theo. But she abruptly stopped when she was just one step away from him.

If she took this step, Theo would beg for forgiveness. Yet, instead of taking that last step, Yue Yi fell on her knees.

"Yue Yi has made a grave mistake, O' Heavenly Sovereign. How dare Yue Yi make the Heavenly Sovereign beg for forgiveness? Yue Yi is a mere shadow, while you are the light itself. Yue Yi will gladly offer her life as long as the Heavenly Sovereign forgives her. So, please…"

She ended up kowtowing in front of Theo. The moment her forehead touched the ground, the blood began to disappear. It felt like the ground was responding to her sincere (brainwashed) feeling as flowers and grass began to come out of the soil, confirming her sincerity.
