I poured all my consciousness into a powerful strike against the stone. With no spiritual energy left, I could only draw on the external spiritual essence. With a loud "boom," the stone shattered in response. 0
 
At that moment, I caught sight of him. 0
 
In my mind, I saw Fu Yiyun in the Saintess Hall, laughing and chatting with the Saintess. I couldn't hear their words, but whatever he said made her cover her mouth and giggle. 0
 
Fu Yiyun must have sensed the stone's destruction, glancing toward the Saintess. I heard him say, 0
 
"She truly goes to great lengths to disrupt our meeting, resorting to such despicable tactics." 0
 
"Does she think that shattering the stone will allow me to seek her out? It only makes me feel more disgusted by her." 0
 
I watched as the Saintess smiled alluringly and said with understanding, " Ge'er really doesn't know any better; how could she make such a joke at a time like this?" 0
 
I didn't have the courage to look any further. I knew that no one would come to save me. 0
 
Resigned, I closed my eyes. 0
 
"I'll go first; you come next, little brother last." 0
 
I was subjected to humiliation by three men in turn, blood staining the ground. 0
 
I lost track of time until I passed out. When I regained consciousness, it was to the torment of excruciating pain. 0
 
Last night had marked my downfall, and Gu Poison had struck early. 0
 
 
I felt something writhing within my insides, as if it were about to break free. 0
 
I forced myself to stand up, my clothes torn into shreds, but I didn't have the time to care about that. I just wanted to die quickly. 0
 
Before me lay a vast sea, and as I breathed gently, I felt a sense of freedom. 0
 
Step by step, I walked into the water until it reached my chest. 0
 
"Chu Yige! What are you trying to do?!" I turned to see Fu Yiyun and the Saintess standing on the shore. 0
 
Fu Yiyun shouted in anger. 0
 
"The Saintess never wanted you dead! She has treated you well just to drive you out of the Hehuan Sect. How can you be so ungrateful?!" 0
 
I scoffed and continued to wade deeper into the sea, sharp stones cutting into my feet, blood mingling with the water. 0
 
I replied, "Never wanted me dead? What a joke." 0
 
"The Saintess is so pure and virtuous; why must you be so stubborn and tarnish her reputation?" Fu Yiyun said. 0
 
The Saintess intervened, raising her sword to stop Fu Yiyun from attacking me. " Ge'er doesn't understand; don't hold it against her." 0
 
I tilted my head back and laughed heartily. "I don't understand? Saintess, you truly put on a great show." 0
 
"Fu Yiyun, if you still have a shred of compassion for me, then just kill me with one strike. At least I could die more easily." 0
 
 
"You so-called Saintess, she has cast the Gu Poison Punishment on me!" 0
 
Upon hearing my accusation, the Saintess immediately feigned innocence and said, " Ge'er, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I ever do such a thing to you?" 0
 
The Gu Poison was already close to taking effect, and I didn't want to waste more words with them. 0
 
But I couldn't help myself; I wanted the truth to be known far and wide, to let everyone see how malicious this so-called Saintess truly was. 0
 
"You brought three men to humiliate me yesterday. Am I just making that up?" I spoke calmly while walking toward the center of the lake. 0
 
The Saintess's words were clearly laced with panic as she replied, "What are you saying? That's simply slander." 0
 
"Fu Yiyun, weren't you the one who planted the Phantom Stone in my body because you didn't trust me?" 0
 
The Phantom Stone could reveal my past. 0
 
I casually continued, "You can take it out now and see what happened last night." 0
 
Seeing my determination, Fu Yiyun felt a stir of emotions within her, and the Saintess noticed their wavering hearts. 0
 
She then said, " Ge'er, if you still have a shred of conscience left, come back." 0
