Chapter 311: Tu Xiupei Twists the Facts

Tu Xiupei howled in despair with tears streaming down her face . “So what if I become stronger? She is my sister . She has her own alchemist . And she is backed by the Wargod and the whole of South Winds Nation . No matter how strong I become, I can never be as strong as the whole nation, can I?” she sobbed . “No matter how strong I become, I will never be half as fearless or heartless as my sister . ”

Tu Xiupei fell to her knees then curled up, crying, “I…I am no longer clean . I am too ashamed to live . Besides…”

Qi Shujie’s face darkened immediately as he icily ordered his subordinates, “I don’t want anybody to come within one mile of us without my explicit instructions . ”

“Yes, sir,” his followers replied .

Seeing how hopeless Tu Xiupei was, Qi Shujie was utterly vexed . This woman before him, the apple of his eye, was now humiliated and stripped of all her dignity . The only thing in his mind now was to kill those who had hurt her .

“Pei’er, don’t be afraid . Just tell me what happened, and I will take revenge . So what if she has her alchemist, the Wargod, and even the whole of South Winds Nation? You have the Flying Frost Pavilion and all our martial siblings . Above all, you have me . We do not fear her . ”

“I feel unclean . I am no longer pure…”

Qi Shujie was in turmoil . Not only was he hurting, but he was also frustrated by Tu’ Xiupei’s endless crying . It wrenched his insides like a cloth being wrung out . The woman he loved most had endured the most horrible possible humiliation . As heartbroken as he was, though, his patience started to run out when she refused to cease crying .

“All you know how to do is cry and sob . So what if you are not a virgin anymore? I don’t despise you . You are still mine . What is lowly Feng Tianlan, trifling Si Mobai, and the weaselly little South Winds Nation? Compared with the Flying Frost Pavilion, they have few saving graces .

“You are a disciple of Flying Frost Pavilion and my beloved junior, so why do you fear them? They should be the ones trembling . Will all of your cries free your parents from jail? You cannot change anything with endless sobs . You’ve made a fool out of yourself before your enemies and brought suffering to those who truly care about you . ”

Taken aback by his sudden outburst, Tu Xiupei stammered back blankly,” But I…”

Qi Shujie dropped to the ground and grabbed Tu Xiupei by the shoulders . Her swollen eyes met his as he wiped the tears from her already pale face . “There are no buts . Only me, you, the Flying Frost Pavilion, and a plot for revenge . These people deserve death . ”

“But she is my sister . Although she was unkind to me, I can’t…”

Seeing how Tu Xiupei remained kind despite everything that had happened to her, rage swelled within Qi Shujie . He ground his teeth in anger and replied, “That is beyond unkind . She’s done this horrible thing to her sibling, and it was straight up inhumane . Getting rid of her is doing the world a favor . Good riddance . ”

On his way over to see Tu Xiupei, Qi Shujie heard the gossip on the streets and jumped to the conclusion that everything was Feng Tianlan’s fault . Tu Xiupei, his meek, kind, and gentle little sister, would never commit any form of evil .

Tu Xiupei remained silent as she continued crying . The deluge was never-ending .

Qi Shujie wiped the tears from her face and tried probing again, “Come on, tell me . What exactly happened? I was only gone for a few months, and you got into this mess . Tell me how I can help you . ”

” Qi…my-my sister . She…” Tu Xiupei choked on her words as she forced out her sob story .

She complained about how Feng had taken everything from her . About how she had committed all kinds of atrocities, twisting the facts and playing the perfect victim . She told Qi Shujie how Tu Xiuyu and Si Rong had even had a child out of wedlock and conveniently blamed it on Feng Tianlan . She also said that Feng Tianlan had drugged Tu Xiuyu and sold her to the brothels . She raged about how Feng Tianlan had done tremendous damage to their reputations and insisted on how innocent she, Tu Xiuyu, really was .
