1765 Sinners Must Not Live 4 (1/2)

” It's impossible….. Impossible….. My Lord, you are lying to me aren't you? Senior Ming Xin….. How could she possibly have been murdered by Young Master Gu….. That's not possible….. It can't be true….. It's not true…..” Zi Jin was acting like she had lost her soul as she knelt there shaking her head, teardrops the size of a bean falling incessantly from her eyes.

She did not want to believe that Ming Xin who had been like a sister to her had really been killed by Gu Ying…..

The Spirit Jade Palace Lord looked highly pained as he looked at Zi Jin, and then hung his head low as while raising a finger up towards the silent and speechless Spirit Jade Palace disciples at the side.

”You girls here can tell her….. how Ming Xin had actually died!”

In a blink, the young girls from the Spirit Jade Palace had all fallen to their knees in a row, their faces all unwilling, as they covered their faces to sob softly.

Their reactions only caused Zi Jin to become even more flustered. She raised up her teary eyes to look at the sisters who were usually filled with smiles and laughter.

”How did Ming Xin die….. How….. did she really die?” Her voice was shaking with a tremble, deeply afraid that the answer she would hear would drive her into despair.

”Zi Jin….. What our Lord….. Our Lord speaks the truth….. Ming Xin she….. was killed by Gu Ying. When we found her body, her eyes…..” The young lady who spoke up could not make herself continue.

Ming Xin's death was not any secret in the Spirit Jade Palace. The only person they hid that from, was only Zi Jin who was as close to Ming Xin like a real sister.

Zi Jin fell forlornly to the floor, her eyes immediately turning bloodshot, her tears dripping onto the ground just before her, wetting it. Upon the bright clear floor, Zi Jin saw her own reflection, looking wretched, so worn and haggard, so stupid…..

She suddenly recalled the words Jun Wu had said before.

When Gu Ying was in the Cloudy Brook Academy, just because he had thought that a young girl had a beautiful pair of eyes, he had reached out to dig the girl's eyes out. She had thought that Jun Wu was merely trying to find an excuse to justify his own actions and was just intentionally smearing Gu Ying's name. But now, she finally realized it.
