ATP Chapter 18

All the Protagonists I’ve Scummed Came To Me For Revenge Chapter 18: Sister White Lotus (18)

“Relax.”

Ye Yueru put her hand on her shoulder, comforting Xia Yu, and looked at Ye Tianming who was unconscious after vomiting blood with complicated eyes.

“Today is really not a good day.” Xia Yu said with a wry smile: “One by one, everyone is vomiting blood.”

Ye Yueru smiled and said, “I’m fine.”

“Um…”

The doctor came quickly. Doctor Li Qingcao was brought from Tianyue Palace, but this stronghold already had a doctor.

Someone was sent to settle Ye Tianming down. After taking his pulse, the doctor found that he was vomiting blood and unconscious due to anger and internal injuries.

They felt relieved knowing that the emergency treatment would not leave any major problems.

Ye Tianming is a legend of the righteous path after all.

This whole ordeal lasted a long time and made him exhausted.

Xia Yu originally wanted to ask the doctor to take Ye Yueru’s pulse, but after thinking about it, she gave up the idea. After all, there is no such thing as benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness in Tianyue Palace.

If the news that Ye Yueru was poisoned and had to suppress the toxicity and could not take any action, it would definitely cause a major uproar.

Not only the righteous path, but also the Tianyue Palace itself will immediately retaliate against Ye Yueru.

They are just so realistic.

And Ye Yueru has not yet cultivated any confidants.

“He should be your grandfather.”

Xia Yu had guessed it.

Although she didn’t know what Ye Tianming was thinking just now, it is not difficult to tell from his reaction just now that she’s very likely his granddaughter.

“With a grandfather like this, it’s no wonder my mother has been so indifferent to me for so many years.”

Having sent one daughter away, I guess the other one wouldn’t care much about it. If she did, she probably wouldn’t have sent the other one away.

“Don’t hate Master.” Ye Yueru advised softly: “In fact, Master does care about you. The reason why she passed the position of Palace Master to me before she died was that she didn’t want you to be bound by Tianyue Palace. She also knew that I would protect you.”

Xia Yu was an outsider and did not feel any excitement, but she was Xia Yu now and had to act and speak as Xia Yu.

She could only sigh and lament these past events.

I don’t feel the same way.

“Is there really nothing wrong?” Xia Yu changed the subject and paid attention to her body again: “If others knew you were poisoned, they would definitely rebel. Have someone send the Blood Jade Qilin to you, and use it right away, okay?”

The Blood Jade Qilin is said to cure all diseases.

However, it does not include the living and the dead, flesh and bones, and it cannot regenerate broken limbs. Otherwise, Zuo Dao, who had a defective body, would have used the Blood Jade Qilin himself, and would not have thrown it into the treasury as a decoration.

Xia Yu wasn’t sure whether the poison could be detoxified.

Ye Yueru had already made her choice. She held her hand, pulled her to sit on her lap, and said what she had been thinking about for a long time.

“You said you don’t like Tianyue Palace. When Senior Ye wakes up, let’s find an opportunity to leave Tianyue Palace and live in seclusion, okay?”

Xia Yu didn’t think much about it: “Okay.”

“I’ve thought about it. I don’t want to live if you die. Poisoning may be God’s will. I don’t plan to go find the strange doctor.”

Xia Yu widened her eyes and refused, “No! No! You have to live!”

“Why?” Ye Yueru said calmly, “Why can’t I accompany you? Li Qingcao’s medical skills are unparalleled. The poison she prepared may be untreatable by anyone in the world. The Blood Jade Qilin is said to cure all diseases, but it cannot cure poisoning.”

Xia Yu was speechless because Ye Yueru was right.

“But you can’t just give up, because I’m going to die and lose the motivation to live. Do you think I’ll always feel guilty even if I die?”

“I don’t want you to wait alone on the road to the underworld.”

But the underworld is just something I made up!

Xia Yu was sulking.

“You said that three years is enough.” Ye Yueru said gently: “I have lived in pain these years. Only when you are alive can my heart come alive. If you die, there is no difference between me and death.”

Is that so?

It is indeed cruel for me, who is loved by Ye Yueru, to advise her to live alone after my death. It is easy to say but difficult to do.

Moreover, it is very difficult to find a way to detoxify. After all, judging from Ye Yueru’s reaction, it is very tricky.

It may take several years to find the antidote, or even impossible to find it at all, because the person who made the poison is already dead and no one knows what medicinal ingredients were used in the poison.

Ye Yueru didn’t want to spend the rest of her life looking for a cure. She would rather give up the hope of finding an antidote and spend the rest of her time with Xia Yu, who only had three years left to live.

She was delighted.

Without Xia Yu, everything would be meaningless.

In the five years without Xia Yu, she lost interest in everything, became irritable and easily angered, her desire to destroy grew day by day, and her thoughts became increasingly terrifying.

She would rather die with Xia Yu than live alone in this false world.

Xia Yu was silent, her eyelashes trembling slightly. She lowered her head, still thinking about something. Ye Yueru looked at her serious expression and kissed her on the forehead.

“I… respect your choice.”

Just like she didn’t want to die.

Everyone has their own ideas. There is no need to force anything. Forcing others to live according to your wishes is a very painful thing.

Xia Yu understood very well.

Ye Yueru smiled: “Yeah.”

Maybe I will fail.

For the first time, this thought came to Xia Yu’s mind. Perhaps she would fail and she might not be able to complete this task.

The protagonists are all dead. What’s the point of being black or white? Everyone is dead. The mission will probably fail naturally.

She would do anything to succeed in her mission, but now she agrees with Ye Yueru’s words out of compassion.

She had met many people, all kinds of protagonists, but she had never had this feeling, a feeling of peace and compassion.

Why didn’t I meet you in the real world?

Xia Yu sighed in her heart.

She rested her forehead on Ye Yueru’s shoulder, closed her eyes, and said to herself, just let it go this time, just to repay Ye Yueru’s affection.

As for Ye Tianming, his internal injuries require some time to heal, but it is obvious that this old man cannot stay in the Tianyue Palace base to heal his injuries for so long.

Xia Yu didn’t know how to face this old man, nor did she want to have another relative to recognize her, so she just quietly asked someone to send the Blood Jade Qilin to Ye Tianming.

Since Ye Yueru has a plan, the Blood Jade Qilin is useless. In this case, she will give it to Ye Tianming and let him use it to treat Ye Lan.

Ye Tianming knew that Xia Yu was also his granddaughter, and wanted to see her again and have a good chat with her, but Xia Yu did not give him this opportunity and left the base after he woke up.

Xia Yu.

This is a name that is about to be forgotten by the world, but there are still many people who know it. Ye Tianming has been away from the world for a long time and is not very clear about Xia Yu’s “great achievements”. After getting the blood jade Qilin, he found an old friend with mixed feelings to learn about what happened over the years.

Xia Yu is also a tragedy.

If you cannot get the love you want, and then you love and hate, you will eventually bring about your own destruction.

These are the evaluations others gave to Xia Yu, but Ye Tianming saw Ye Yueru’s care and concern for Xia Yu, and he remained silent for a long time after getting the information.

Compared to Ye Lan, Xia Yu’s life was much more exciting, but also extremely painful. Her temperament was completely opposite to the gentle and kind Ye Lan. Five years ago, she was a complete lunatic, completely different from the person she met.

Jianghu…

Xia Yu was probably determined not to have anything to do with him. Ye Tianming respected her thoughts, burned the information, and returned to the mountain alone with a heavy heart.

The news of the evil deeds in Jiangnan City spread quickly, and the fact that Ye Yueru defeated Ye Tianming caused an uproar in the martial arts world.

Most people were skeptical. After all, Ye Yueru was too young. In the eyes of some old-fashioned people, even if she had been practicing since her mother’s womb, it was impossible for her to defeat Ye Tianming in terms of internal strength.

However, with the descriptions and evidence of eyewitnesses, the world of martial arts gradually calmed down again. Ye Yueru’s strength was so strong that people suspected that she was already the best in the world.

Killing her would probably be harder than climbing to heaven.

It was thought that the evil cult Tianyue Palace would become arrogant and domineering after Ye Yueru became famous, but what was surprising was that the cult seemed to be in internal turmoil.

Yes, there was chaos in Tianyue Palace.

The reason was because of Ye Yueru’s disappearance.

Everyone saw Zuo Dao poisoning her with their own eyes, so many people suspected that Ye Yueru was already dead and she was just holding on.

The forces within the Tianyue Palace, which were originally divided into several major factions, were completely split and fought each other fiercely for the position of Palace Master.

The internal struggle of Tianyue Palace once again attracted the attention of the righteous side, and the two sides launched a new round of struggle between good and evil, which ended with Tianyue Palace being torn into pieces.

“You really don’t regret it?”

In a completely inconspicuous little mountain village, no one would have thought that Ye Yueru, who was said to be so magical and dead, was living in seclusion here.

The poison was constantly destroying her body. Even with her strong inner strength, she looked very bad. She even vomited blood again today, and her spirit was even more depressed.

Xia Yu sat beside the bed, looking at Ye Yueru who was lying in bed with heartache, and began to doubt whether her decision was correct.

Ye Yueru grabbed Xia Yu’s hand. She looked a little helpless when she heard this question again. She said, “I don’t regret it.”

“…But I regret it.”

“Why should you regret it?” Ye Yueru smiled and said, “Everyone will die someday, it’s just a matter of time. I’ve loved and hated, been happy and miserable, been confused and crazy in my life, and I’ve lived a more wonderful life than 90% of the people in this world.”

“But your original life should have been more wonderful and splendid.”

“I have no regrets.” Ye Yueru has comforted Xia Yu countless times, but Xia Yu keeps asking this question. Ye Yueru doesn’t get annoyed and comforts her and gives her own answer every time.

Xia Yu looked at her and remembered the scene when she saw her for the first time, and the remorse in her heart increased a little.

In a sense, it was she who ruined Ye Yueru and her entire life, but Ye Yueru no longer hated her.

If Ye Yueru hated her, she wouldn’t really care, because she was just a selfish person. But Ye Yueru’s love for her made her confused and helpless, as she had never been truly loved by anyone. Facing Ye Yueru’s love that transcended life and death, she was terrified.

The second time she traveled through time, she was more sincere than the first time, because she came with the idea of semi-atonement.

“You’re so stupid.” Xia Yu held her hand with a complicated expression.

“Maybe?” Ye Yueru did not refute this. She was indeed not smart, but this feeling was not unpleasant.

“Take the medicine?”

Although the medicine cannot detoxify, it can help Ye Yueru reduce the pain caused by the toxin. After Xia Yu, Ye Yueru also became a medicine bottle, and Xia Yu herself had given up treatment long ago. After all, she would die within three years whether she was treated or not.

…

All the troubles in the world have nothing to do with them anymore. They just live as ordinary people in this small mountain village. Ye Yueru even takes on the role of a teacher in the village out of interest.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Although she had been prepared, the fact that three years had passed without a single day more or less made Xia Yu firmly believe that it was the unreliable system that set the deadline for her.

Her vitality was fading away, and she raised her hand with difficulty to touch Ye Yueru’s cheek, which was so close to her. Ye Yueru held her hand tightly with tears in her eyes.

“Don’t be afraid, I will be here to accompany you soon. I won’t let you wait for me alone.”

Xia Yu’s expression became complicated and her vision blurred. She could hardly see Ye Yueru’s face anymore.

“Okay…”

If there really is an underworld, then please wait for me, please.

The feeling of being summoned became stronger and stronger, and she slowly closed her eyes. At this moment, the obsession in her heart that was almost morbid began to loosen.

Maybe death is not as scary as she imagined. Maybe death is not so hard to accept.

The two were buried together. After Xia Yu died, Ye Yueru, who had made arrangements for her funeral, also left with Xia Yu, no longer using her internal force to suppress the poison.

The people who buried them were from this village. Most of them were students that Ye Yueru had taught in the past three years out of interest. Among them was one with very good physique, and Ye Yueru even took her as her apprentice and taught her martial arts.

After kowtowing several times in front of the grave, the disciple accepted by Ye Yueru helped the two to guard the grave for seven days. After seven days, she left the village with a sword given to her by Ye Yueru. She would only appear on the anniversary of her death every year.
