34 A DAY OF CONFESSION 3 (1/2)

Zoru was dejected after watching Zhen Xiu this lonely and suffering in pain. Her sad face really hurt him. Zoru concurs that he didn't like her at the beginning and was biased towards his previous master but after understanding her all this time he knows that she is really not bad.

He knows that what happened before was not her fault. When she asked him if he had saved her at that time if it was not needed he was conflicted whether to tell her or not the truth behind his silence.

He would have saved her but not like this but by keeping her soul inside his celestial body. He would have nourished her himself and when the time comes for her reincarnation he would let her go. He never wanted to make her life hell. He never thought her as a replacement of his previous master.

At first, he truly didn't like her but as the time passed he saw her both good and bad points. He knew he was wrong in judging her before because he was never a part of her life. He didn't know about her past. It was wrong.

But he can't let go of his previous master's feelings too. She was also not a perfect person but her greatest desire was to get Lu Jian's love that she never received.

He told her that previous master has sacrificed herself as her medicine so that she can be with Lu Jian after that backlash but the truth was his previous master saw all the experience and pain this evil princess has suffered in her past life while using her power.

She was ashamed after seeing all the hardships faced by Zhen Yunxiu. His master in truth actually wanted to give her remaining life force to stabilize her soul as a gratification for taking her place and to apologize for using her.

Zoru recalled their last conversation.

”This time I have sinned Zoru.”

”What do you mean?”

”I saw everything, everything that she faced in her life. How can I be so cruel to attack her by using her own power? I am no better than that selfish father of hers.”

At that time, Zoru was confused. He didn't get what she was saying, but he could feel the sadness emanating from her.

”She is really pitiful. No, she is strong, the courageous person I have ever seen. She is even better than mom.”

”You are talking about Xiu?”

Zoru understood now. His master has used Xiu's spiritual power, so she was able to see her memories. She is sad because of Xiu.
