Chapter 123 - The Truth (5) (2/2)

"Ling'er, please don't. I love you. I do love you. I love you more than my own life. I did all this for you. I didn't want you to fall into the King's hand! He will only make you suffer!

I have love you every since I met you too. Please believe me. I have never love anyone else. You and only you alone." King Jin was now crying. He didn't want this outcome. He brought Meiling to this place, in order to escape. Escape her Destiny! And also, for his own selfish thinking. He thought that Meiling loved the King. He didn't know that Meiling had always loved him. He only thought that it was because of her lost memories. That she fell in love with him, because they were always together in this place.

"I didn't know that you love me. I'm sorry for hurting you. But had to do it. I just had to." He was shaking now. He wanted to throw the dagger in his hand, as far as possible. Yet he can't, Meiling was stronger than him. She kept him in place.

Hearing his words, it hurt Meiling's heart.

"I don't believe you." She whispered.

Meiling's black eyes closed, as her aura pulled on King Jin's hand into her back.

Meiling didn't screamed, she endured the pain. The Dagger penetrated her heart , from the back. The Divine Harmony Bow was a bit ways from them. Qianru wasn't able to hear there conversation, as they were whispering to each other. Only the sight of King Jin, stabbing her back.

"NOOOOO! NOOOOOO! LING'ERRR!! NOOOO! WHY.. WHYYY!?????" King Jin yelled. Soon later, he felt the aura released him.

Meiling fell down and King Jin caught her body. He laid her head on his left cut arm.

"Why? Why? Ling'er. You can't leave me.. please. not now.. not ever.." King Jin's voice was wavering. His tears were flowing non-stop. He could care less that he look unmanly right now. Right now, his love one was dying. And yet he knew, there was no saving her.

"If you really.. love me.. Live.. I want you to live.. and maybe.. Just maybe.. I will see you.. again.." Meiling was coughing with blood. She lost all her strength. The dagger would've kill her instantly, but King Jin was able to slightly move him hand earlier. Making the dagger hit only the bottom part of her heart. Leaving a hole, only making her losing blood fast. But sooner, it will kill her. No magic or medicine can patch the hole in her heart.

King Jin held right hand held her left. He kissed on it and put it on his wet cheeks. He did everything he could to keep her away from anything that would harm her. Never knowing that eventually, she would die with the help of his own hand.
