Chapter 1108: Revenge is easy to deal with
"Shameless! How can you use a woman as a shield?"

"Using a woman as a shield is not only shameless, but also obscene! But... so what?" Yun Zhuiyue smiled indifferently, "These despicable means are thanks to your father's 'teaching by example' to me. If he hadn't deceived your mother and used your mother, he would have died in Xiangxi long ago. How could he have escaped back to Luoyang alive? If he hadn't relied on the power behind Ling Xiaoxiao, how could he have founded the Xianwang Mansion? How could he have risen to prominence in the Central Plains martial arts world? And you... a 'bastard' who shouldn't have come into the world, how could you have been so popular under the guise of the young master of the Xianwang Mansion? Wu Yangwei? You have already acknowledged your ancestors, so you should know clearly about your father's "romantic affair", and you should also know clearly that in terms of shamelessness and meanness, no one in the world can be compared with your father. As for you... you have the greedy, selfish, dirty and despicable blood of Luo Tianjin in your bones, and you can live safely to this day by deceiving and using women. Zhao Xin, Luo Ningyu, Xunzhen, Pan Yuyin... Which one of them has not been deceived by you? Which one has not been used by you? Haha, the disciple is better than the master. In this respect, you are even worse than your father... "

"You...you spit on others..."

"Don't forget, I watched you grow up. I know your background better than anyone else." Yun Zhuiyue said jokingly, "It's a skill to know how to use others to achieve your goals. It's not shameful. But if you dare to do something but not take responsibility, and you act despicably but insist that you are upright... that's shameful."

"you……"

"Calm down and sit down!" Yun Zhuiyue pointed at the empty stool beside the table and said with a half-smile, "Don't be so self-righteous, and don't deliberately put on a cold look. In fact, you and I are the same type of people, and we have many common topics. We can chat slowly."

After saying that, Yun Zhuiyue poured two more cups of new tea, placed one next to himself, and handed the other to Liu Xunyi.

"Danfeng Garden is your territory. Everything here belongs to you, including this pot of tea." Yun Zhuiyue said with a hint of meaning, "Now, I am treating you with your tea. If you don't drink it, it's not that you don't give me face, but that you don't give yourself face. If you don't even give yourself face, why should I give you face?"

Yun Zhuiyue's words may sound like a joke, but they are actually a threat.

Although Liu Xunyi was still furious, he understood Yun Zhuiyue's feelings and still stepped forward and sat down reluctantly.

Seeing this, Yun Zhuiyue raised a smug smile and said, "Now... you can tell me why you are here. I am all ears."

"My purpose is very simple, just to end the feud with you."

"Settle the grudge?" Yun Zhuiyue pretended to be confused and asked, "What grudge do we have?"

"Why do you ask when you already know the answer? Back in Yingchuan, Si Wudao had already told me that you secretly sent people to protect me... or to 'monitor me'. I know that I have been living in the trap you carefully laid since I was a child, and every step of my life... is under your control. Maybe it is because of Lord Luo that you hate the rest of us, so you hate me to the core and hope that I will suffer hardships and torture. You separated my brother and me, and instructed Si Wudao to bring Tianji Hou to bring me to Tianji Pavilion. All of this... was set up by you. However, due to your promise to Lord Xiao, no matter how much you hate me, you can't let me die, so you sent someone to kill me again. You protected me secretly, and even helped me solve some difficult problems without anyone knowing. "Recalling the past, Liu Xunyi's mood became very complicated, "If it weren't for you, my sister and I might have starved to death on the streets in the cold winter. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to escape danger so many times when I was working at Tianji Pavilion. It can be said that... I was able to survive, learn martial arts, stand out in Tianji Pavilion, and be the first among the ten young guards to be appreciated by the Marquis. Your secret help cannot be ignored. It's a pity that your kindness to me all stems from your hatred for Lord Luo. Everything you did for me was just for a more satisfying revenge, not to help me sincerely."

Yun Zhuiyue listened silently to Liu Xunyi's confession. His aura was no longer as cold and arrogant as before, and his eyes gradually regained their calmness.

"You have harmed me and saved me, you are both my enemy and my benefactor." At this point, Liu Xunyi suddenly chuckled, as if mocking his own stupidity and slowness, despising his own indecision, "From childhood to adulthood, there are countless grievances between you and me. If I were to settle them one by one, I'm afraid it would take ten days or half a month to figure it out."

"It's rare that you tell me the truth, so I won't hide it from you anymore. In fact, I took Ping'er away because I couldn't bear to see her wandering around with you and starving..."

"I have guessed the reasons." Liu Xunyi replied without denying, "Ping'er is a girl. You see the shadow of Valley Master Xiao in her, and subconsciously regard her as the incarnation of Valley Master Xiao. As for me... I am Luo Tianjin's son and the continuation of your enemy's life. When you see me, you will remember how Luo Tianjin took Valley Master Xiao from you and how he trampled on your dignity..."

“I admit… when your mother entrusted you and your sister to me, I did discriminate against you and was unfair to you.” Yun Zhuiyue’s eyes were dim, and he seemed to be feeling ashamed.

"You can treat Ping'er as your own daughter, and transfer all your consideration and tenderness to her, thus imposing all your resentment and hatred on me... Far from blaming you, I am very grateful. After all, it was you who allowed Ping'er to have a happy and carefree childhood. If she followed me, she would only suffer. After all, I couldn't even get a mouthful of rice porridge back then. What you said just now is right. Just for your kindness in raising Ping'er... I can't kill you either."

"Liu Xunyi..."

"Forget it!" The upset Liu Xunyi said seriously, "Back then, you cared about Master Xiao's feelings and hated me but couldn't kill me. Now I care about Ping'er's feelings and hate you... but I can't kill you either. I came to see you to tell you clearly that when will the cycle of revenge end? Your love and hatred should have been resolved twenty years ago, and should not have been dragged on until now, let alone dragging innocent people into it, resulting in endless worries and endless hatred. For Ping'er's future happiness, and for myself to be able to get rid of the grievances of the previous generation and start a new life with dignity. The right and wrong, grievances and grudges of the past... let it go, and no one needs to mention it in the future! Whether you helped me, harmed me, or even set up a trap to induce me to turn against my biological father... I don't care anymore." "Are you serious?" Yun Zhuiyue's eyes lit up, as if she couldn't believe Liu Xunyi's generosity, "Can you really let go of your prejudice against me..."

"Letting go doesn't mean forgetting." Liu Xunyi waved his hand to interrupt Yun Zhuiyue's sigh, "It doesn't mean I can forgive your cruelty, ruthlessness, and selfishness. Especially... you used me as a victim of revenge, which made me unable to let it go for a long time."

"What do you mean?" Yun Zhuiyue's heart sank, and the look she gave Liu Xunyi became more sinister. "I knew Luo Tianjin's son would never give up. Just tell me! Have you made your next plan?"

"Don't pursue right and wrong, and don't care about favors and grudges." Liu Xunyi looked at the indignant Yun Zhuiyue without looking away, slowly raised the teacup on the table, and said word by word, "This cup of tea... I toast you. I toast both your kindness to me and your hatred for me. Drink this cup of tea, and from today... no! It should be from now on, you and I will settle all grudges and owe each other nothing. From now on, you go your way, and I go mine. We will keep to ourselves and never have any contact until we die."

"Never contact until death?" Yun Zhuiyue seemed to have heard a huge joke, and laughed wildly with a dry and hoarse voice, which made people shudder. "I grew up with your mother, and I am your grandfather's adopted son, and your sister's adoptive father. How are you going to... stop contacting me?"

"I don't want to interfere with other people..."

"Liu Xunyi, stop being so pretentious here!"

"Boom!"

Yun Zhuiyue's laughter stopped abruptly. She suddenly waved her hand and knocked the teacup in Liu Xunyi's hand to the ground. She said sternly, "You don't want to interfere with others? That's so easy to say. How can you not interfere? Do you want your mother and Ping'er to be caught between you and me?"

"I just said that I don't want them to know what happened today because I don't want to embarrass them."

"Oh?" At this time, Yun Zhuiyue had already guessed what Liu Xunyi was thinking, but he still kept asking, insisting that Liu Xunyi tell him in person, "I'd like to hear what you think?"

"I hope you...take the initiative to draw a clear line with them and slowly fade out of their lives." Liu Xunyi spoke bluntly, "Of course, as compensation, I am willing to find a new place for Longxiang Mountain to settle down. Even if it is not as good as Ailao Mountain, at least...it is better than your situation of living under someone else's roof."

"You mean..." Yun Zhuiyue suppressed the anger in her heart and squeezed out a little sound from between her teeth, "In order to get your charity, let me leave them?"

"It's not 'they', but 'we'." Liu Xunyi corrected, "I know you have deep feelings for Chief Teng, Master Xiao and Ping'er, and you are reluctant to leave easily. I can promise you that I will take good care of them after you leave..."

"boom!"

Before he finished speaking, Yun Zhuiyue, who could no longer bear it, had already slammed the table and stood up, pointing angrily at Liu Xunyi who was neither humble nor arrogant, and scolded: "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to ask me to leave?"

"As the saying goes, 'A man who knows the times is a hero.' If you take the initiative to leave, you can avoid a lot of embarrassment and leave a memory for both of us. But if you insist on not leaving... I won't force you. At most... let Chief Teng, Master Xiao and Ping'er make their own choices. But don't blame me for showing off my family affection and using any means to keep them."
