Pulling Together a Villain Reformation Strategy

Chapter 96.2 – The End (2)

The event he spent years waiting for had finally happened, but Jiang Xunyi couldn’t even spare a second to think about it because Yun Xie had already turned to face him. From this distance, the dark air between his eyebrows and his cold expression were all visible. A drop of blood slowly flowed down from the corner of his eyes, making the rest of his face appear paler.

“Yun Xie? Yun Xie!”

The Kunwu sword was unsheathed.

Yun Xie’s hands had been bloodied again, and his mind was full of chaos. He slowly raised his sword, but the one he was pointing at wasn’t Jiang Xunyi’s direction, it was someone behind him.

“I want to kill her.”

He spoke ambiguously and mechanically slow, but Jiang Xunyi heard him clearly. While still staying on his guard against Yun Xie, he quickly glanced back to see who was so unlucky.

As he turned his head, several possibilities flashed in his head like a movie, but when he finally looked back, it was unexpectedly Wanderer Zihui

He stood there quietly for a while and felt that he understood Yun Xie’s thoughts. Yun Xie was a man with a good temperament and youthful pride. Besides the fact that he had fallen in love with him, he was almost invincible and had never suffered. At this time, the one he hated even unconsciously turned out to be the person who had hurt Jiang Xunyi.

Jiang Xunyi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn’t afford to even feel uncomfortable at the moment. Yun Xie had become this way, and after the system collapsed, he was the barrier holding the world in place, and he couldn’t fall now.

He stood up slowly.

In this world, kneeling is very simple. You simply bend your knees and fold your body.

However, it’s really hard to stand up, straighten your back, and hold your head up.

As if a silver bottle had broken[1], he began to play a note again. The sound suddenly rose, the melody intense, and countless silver-white rays of light rose from the ground to surround Yun Xie in the middle.

Yun Xie’s wish was not fulfilled, so the black air suddenly lost control and surged desperately. However, the more he struggled, the tighter the bonds formed by the white light became, finally trapping him tightly.

Yun Xie clenched both of his fists, panting. Trails of moisture slid down his handsome cheeks, either melting snowflakes or dripping sweat.

He felt very distressed by the sight of Jiang Xunyi arduously working, but although he wanted to control himself, he was powerless. The dark energy was restless, seeming that there would be no stopping without killing Master Zihui. Even with a mind like his, he was caught in a cycle of confusion and soberness. The only thing he remembered was that he must never hurt Jiang Xunyi.

Jiang Xunyi threw the leaf away and suddenly leaped up. His figure flickered for a moment, then he was in front of Yun Xie, holding his wrist with one hand and grabbing his collar with the other hand. He shoved him back roughly, and the two slammed into the stone wall beside them.

Jiang Xunyi firmly pushed Yun Xie against the stone, his face pressed so close that they almost seemed to be breathing together.

Just like the night that he gave him the sword, Yun Xie’s Kunwu sword was between them, separating them.

The long sword had a spirit, and almost instinctively chose to protect its master, stopping on Jiang Xunyi’s neck.

Jiang Xunyi didn’t care, staring at Yun Xie’s face. Without looking back, he condensed energy into a blade and sent it behind him, shooting straight through Zihui’s heart. “You want her dead? You don’t need to do it. I will pass retribution on your enemies, and I will shoulder your debts!”

Although, it seemed that the enemy was made for his sake.

However, between them, what use was discerning who the hatred and debts belonged to? Could it be clearly distinguished?

The heavy snow fell on their foreheads and their hair, slowly melting into water and slipping along their cheeks. Jiang Xunyi’s eyelashes were wet with crystal-like water droplets, and his face like a jade crown. He whispered, “Yun Xie, wake up… wake up!”

Yun Xie wanted to tell Jiang Xunyi that he was not unconscious. His heart had Jiang Xunyi, and there was no way he would let go in case he harmed him. He would never let Jiang Xunyi face everything alone, and he wouldn’t let himself forget him and not see him. However, he had exhausted all his strength and couldn’t project his own voice, so he could only look at Jiang Xunyi almost greedily, at the face that he loved so much.

Desire was born of love, but with enough love, you can definitely restrain your desire from losing control.

Jiang Xunyi held Yun Xie’s hand, the blade still on his neck, but he was not afraid. “I know how it feels to be controlled. I know that you aren’t willing to live mindlessly, reduced to a madman manipulated by demon energy. But even so, I still hope you can live, it is only if you live that there is hope…

“It is only that good and evil cannot coexist. I am already half an immortal. If you become a demon and join the sect of Ten Thousand Demons, you’ll be somewhere I cannot reach… I once heard that those killed by the Kunwu Sword will become part of the sword’s guardian sword spirit. I suppose I will have truly kept the promise we made to accompany each other forever. I will walk with you on the road to becoming a devil. Yun Xie, this time, you will never worry again, right?”

He stretched out his hands to embrace Yun Xie. Blood trickled down the blade, and with it, the lingering black energy gradually faded away. Jiang Xunyi did not pay it any mind, instead smiling slightly. “I love you. You may not remember now, but the first time we met…”

“…I remember! As long as it is about you, I will engrave it in my heart, and I will never forget it ever!”

Yun Xie’s tears filled his eyes, and his sword clattered to the ground, the blood in his eyes fading in an instant. Holding Jiang Xunyi, the two slid down the stone wall until they were kneeling down on the ground.

Jiang Xunyi’s hand pressed against Yun Xie’s chest. He couldn’t tell whether it was shock or joy that he felt, but he couldn’t voice the emotions he felt. “Yun Xie…you’re awake!”

Yun Xie trembled and raised one hand, stemming the bleeding from the wound on Jiang Xunyi’s neck. He was almost unable to find the right words to say, and he blurted out, “I was always conscious, but I couldn’t control my body. I hurt you again, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

Yun Xie had finally completely overcome the devilish energy. Jiang Xunyi himself got rid of the system’s control. However, he didn’t feel the slightest joy at this moment, only a sour heartache that gradually spread from his chest to his entire body, filling him with sadness.

They just wanted to be together, to just live well and like normal people, and yet it turned out to be so difficult.

Jiang Xunyi’s eyes were slightly wet, but his tears stubbornly did not flow. Yun Xie suddenly leaned down and kissed the corner of his eyes.

Jiang Xunyi didn’t push him away for once, and only closed his eyes slightly. He heard Yun Xie whisper in his ear, “A’Xun.”

“I’m here.”

“A’Xun”

“Yeah.”

“A-.”

“Are you not annoying!” The melancholy in Jiang Xunyi’s heart dispersed like ashes, and he flicked him away. “Call your sister[2]!”

Yun Xie laughed, his hand reaching out to pinch his face. “Everything is fine, the world is peaceful. Why are you unhappy?”

“What about you? Are you happy?”

Yun Xie smiled as he replied, “Naturally. I was a little sad just now, but no matter what time, as long as I hear your name, everything is always good.”

He took something out and handed it like a treasure to Jiang Xunyi. “Look.”

Jiang Xunyi saw a cracked jade pendant in his palm. Although it was incomplete, the jade was glossy and clean. It was clear that it was extremely cherished by others.

“This is my…”

Yun Xie said with a smile, “You just asked if I remember our first meeting, right? Look, I will never forget it.” 

Jiang Xunyi also recalled the first time he saw Yun Xie. At that time, Yun Xie was still young, but his growing attractiveness was already visible. He was dressed in a gorgeous dress, looking like a person trying to be a dog[3], but his mouth made people want to slash him seven or eighteen times with a sword.

At that time he thought that this person was really annoying.

Who knew that after getting annoyed and annoyed countlessly, he could get used to it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xunyi smiled. Yun Xie continued, “Then… can you repeat the first half of that sentence? I didn’t catch it.”

Jiang Xunyi looked at him deeply, his affection written on his elegant face. “Want to know?”

Yun Xie held his breath and nodded.

Jiang Xun smiled. “I won’t tell you.”

The author has something to say: Dear friends, as of today, the text of this book is over. There are two extras, and I will continue to update tomorrow. 

This is the first novel that I have truly finished, and without thinking, I wrote this much. Young Master Jiang had constantly fought his fate along this road, trying to find what he really wants. Fortunately, although he has endured a lot, he succeeded.

He has experienced a lot of pain that others can’t experience, and he has also gained some things that others can’t get in his life.

As the saying goes, there is no construction without destruction. Yun Xie and his parents represent the future and the past respectively. From the day he was with Yun Yun, there was a painful tug of war in Little Jiang’s mind. Although Little Jiang looks cold, but he is actually very gentle and open-minded in his heart. Regarding this point, Yun Xie is a lot crueler than him.

Therefore, even though he had been killed by a friend with a sword, Little Jiang did not choose to retaliate against Yunyun when he came back. He had always felt guilty for dragging down his parents when he was sick, so although he feels sad when he knows the truth, he will not resent his parents. At the same time, although his brother’s actions are radical or vicious, it isn’t wrong from Jiang Yu’an’s standpoint. His mind is only focused on Little Jiang, so he can’t blame him, and this is more painful—he feels aggrieved and angry, but has nowhere to vent.

But fortunately, he has Yun Yun. No matter when, no matter what happens, he can be sure that there is someone in this world who will stand on his side unconditionally. This is undoubtedly a very happy thing. When Little Jiang can summon the courage to cut off his past and not be disturbed by resentment and unwillingness, then he can truly integrate into this world and have a beautiful future.

It is conceivable that they will be happy without the meddling of fate. I will also explain it in the extras. I’m ashamed that I don’t know how to write about revenge, but I don’t think Young Master Jiang is someone who would be bitter.

I long for the type of relationship where no matter how hard and tortuous the path to the relationship was, afterwards, you must trust each other’s feelings unconditionally. I also like that even though the two are independent, you can see in the corners of their eyebrows and the corners of their eyes, in every word and deed that love is beautiful. Thank you Little Jiang and Little Yun for helping me realize this wish.

You’ve accompanied me through a world built with my own hands. I also hope that everyone, like those taking their college entrance examination, postgraduate entrance examination, students, and workers will get what they want in 2017. Even if the pace is slow for a while, it doesn’t matter. I think as long as you keep walking, there will be a day when you reach the end.

Haha, I’m sorry. I’m chattering again, thank you for watching my nonsense until here. My mind is a little confused, if there is something wrong, I apologize in advance, bow deeply, and see you tomorrow, dears.
