Zhao Xin took a deep breath, suddenly breaking free from him. With determination, she turned around and declared clearly, “ hero Shen was misled by me; it has nothing to do with him. I, Zhao Xin, will take full responsibility for everything.”
After saying this, she closed her eyes, presenting herself as if ready to accept whatever fate awaited her, as if she had already set aside life and death.
“Zhao Xin!” Shen Yuli exclaimed in shock, quickly stepping in front of her. His eyes were filled with resolve and determination, as if he intended to create an unbreakable barrier with his own body.
Just as the crowd was about to surge forward, the middle-aged man who had remained silent for a long time spoke up, “Wait!”
His voice was deep and powerful, carrying an undeniable authority. As the leader chosen by the people, everyone felt reluctant but had no choice but to halt.
“ Little Demon Star of Chaos is actually my daughter.”
His words struck like thunder, instantly shattering everyone’s understanding.
The man sighed heavily, his voice laced with helplessness and guilt. “It is my failure in raising her. From this day forth, I will punish her by sending her to the dungeon for reflection. As for the matter of Guan Family Fortress, I will investigate thoroughly and provide everyone with an explanation.”
The crowd remained restless and unconvinced. The man cleared his throat and continued, “At the same time, I will resign from my position as leader. Does anyone have any objections?”
Immediately, the crowd fell silent. Losing a manual was not a monumental issue; moreover, if he stepped down as leader, perhaps one of them would have a chance to take his place.
With this statement, they had already cast Little Demon Star of Chaos aside.
Zhao Xin stared in disbelief at the man. She could hardly comprehend that her father, who had always valued his position as leader above all else, would give up everything he had worked so hard for just for her sake.
Her vision gradually blurred, and in a daze, it seemed as if the man was smiling at her. Zhao Xin's heart tightened as she murmured, "Father..."
Ten years ago, the "Shen Ying Sword Technique" from Guan Family Fortress was stolen. Her father, the leader of the martial arts world, fought against the Tang Clan to retrieve the technique but was ambushed while escorting it back to Guan Family Fortress, resulting in her mother's death.
Her father knew it was the work of the Tang Clan but chose to turn a blind eye and did not pursue the matter.
She had always thought her father refrained from confronting the Tang Clan for the sake of his position as leader, but now she realized that revenge only begets more revenge. For the stability of the martial arts world, he had to maintain peace.
She could hardly believe that her mother had died over a manual. If all manuals were made public, would there be fewer conflicts and killings?
She had been too naive, not expecting that making the manual public would instead invite even more trouble.
Shen Yuli held her tightly in his embrace and said seriously, "Your intentions are good, but... if a manual falls into the hands of someone like Tang San, it could lead to another bloody storm."
Zhao Xin nodded, still shaken as she replied, "Fortunately, the 'Three Flavors True Fire' I stole is fake. If it were made public, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Shen Yuli gently cupped her face in his hands, his eyes filled with remorse. "I came too late; you’ve lost your inner strength."
Zhao Xin suppressed a laugh, her eyes sparkling with mischief and shyness as she breathed softly, "Then you should pass some on to me..."
Her gaze held a playful and bashful quality, as if the turmoil outside had nothing to do with them; they were lost in their own world.
From then on, as long as he was by her side, she would always have inner strength.
Two hearts, free from doubt, share this life together.
