Chapter 195: Chapter 195 Who Are You Really (Part 1)

“I wanted to grant you a swift release, but alas, you refused this opportunity. In order not to have my eyes tarnished by you, I can only leave you here, until your soul burns away to nothing, then you can be freed…”

The man flicked his robe with his hand and, without giving Xiao Min another glance, turned and walked towards the chamber’s deep.

Trapped in the Black Flame, Xiao Min could neither live nor die, and could only watch in despair as the man’s figure disappeared from her sight, filled with unprecedented regret.

If only… if only Grandpa hadn’t spoiled her so much since she was little, perhaps she wouldn’t have developed such an arrogant and domineering personality, nor would she have provoked these people.

So, in the end, it was all Grandpa’s fault!

It was his lack of strictness that led to this mistake!

One wonders if Xiao Yin, if he could hear these thoughts, would be so angry he’d come back to life…

That night.

The moonlight was dim and lackluster. As soon as Mu Ruyue lay down in bed, a wave of sleepiness overcame her. She tried to force her eyes open but couldn’t stay awake. In a hazy state, she seemed to see a figure slip into the room…

The man stood at the bedside, attentively gazing at the young girl on the bed, a trace of tenderness flowing through his Purple Eyes.

His long fingers brushed over the girl’s nose before resting on her slim lips. His gaze was so gentle, and his movements so tender, as if he feared waking her.

“I’m sorry…”

The man murmured softly, his voice carrying sadness, pain, and endless reluctance, but he had no other choice. To avoid harming her, he had no other option…

Gradually, his head bowed and he tenderly kissed the girl’s lips.

This kiss was incredibly gentle, filled with the man’s unspeakable emotions. Yet, he felt it was not enough; her lips were so sweet and warm, igniting his desire for more and more…

Just then, the girl who had been keeping her eyes closed suddenly opened them.

Their eyes met, and the man’s heart trembled violently.

But he simply couldn’t bring himself to let her go…

With narrowed eyes, Mu Ruyue lifted her foot and kicked hard. The man did not dodge and took the blow standing there.

He groaned, not wanting to let go of the girl as he enjoyed her flavor, tightly grasping her hand and pinning her down on the bed.

“Let go!”

Mu Ruyue’s expression darkened gradually.

For some reason, she felt a dangerous aura from this man…

“Why did you wake up so quickly?”

Mu Ruyue scoffed, “I am an Alchemy Master, do you think your little sedative could keep me out long? Tell me, who exactly are you? At first, I thought you were Wuchen, but Wuchen wouldn’t do something like sneaking into a woman’s room in the dead of night and using a sedative like some rapist.”

The man looked down at the girl, and upon seeing the wariness on her face, his heart felt as if it were brutally stabbed, hurting unbearably. “Who I am, you’ll find out eventually.”

Now was not the time to let her know everything; he couldn’t expose her to danger by her side.

Mu Ruyue’s gaze flashed. She reached out to grab the man’s mask, but the moment she touched the mask, the man released her hand, and a flash of a silver robe shimmered in front of the door.

He vanished from her sight without a trace, as if he had never been there at all…
