Chapter 303: Chapter 203: Always Act with a Conscience (4th Update)
After finishing her words, Zhu Ruyan anxiously looked at Xue An.
Because she knew what the name Kunlun Immortal Palace meant.
She had once sought help from several individuals, all of whom were distinguished figures of the era, who admired her greatly, and had all proclaimed they could accomplish anything she asked.
But as soon as Zhu Ruyan mentioned the four words “Kunlun Immortal Palace”, all of them backed down, finding various excuses to avoid the matter.
These repeated blows had already eroded away Zhu Ruyan’s last trace of hope.
This rash invitation was also Zhu Ruyan’s final effort.
If that failed, she would completely give up.
At that moment, Xue An slightly raised his eyebrow and asked with interest, “Kunlun Immortal Palace’s Zuo Yuhu? Do you have a grudge against him?”
Zhu Ruyan steeled her heart and nodded, “Yes, a deep-seated enmity of blood and hatred!”
As she spoke these words, her eyes were filled with a hateful gleam.
“On one side is the exalted Immortal Palace, and on the other, you, a weak woman. What enmity could there be between you?” Xue An said indifferently.
Zhu Ruyan was silent for a long while before looking up again with tears streaming down her face.
“Young master, my father was Zhu Tianhua, who was also a major figure in Kunlun City. It was just that later on, after he found a treasure, Zuo Yuhu heard of it and unable to obtain it, he chose to murder out of rage!”
“After my father was murdered, he was not satisfied; he ordered his men to kill off my entire family, young and old. If I hadn’t been out at the time, I would have also fallen victim to their wrath! All these years, I’ve been drifting outside, the hardships indescribable. The only reason I’ve endured is to seek revenge!”
With these words, Zhu Ruyan rose from her seat and gracefully knelt down.
“Young master, you are a person of great ability. I only ask that you help me seek justice and revenge!”
Xue An listened quietly, his expression undecipherable, just raising his cup to sip tea.
“It does sound sympathetic, but…”
Xue An hadn’t finished speaking when Zhu Ruyan quickly interjected, “Naturally, I wouldn’t expect the young master to take on the task for nothing. Over the years, I have also accumulated a good deal of wealth, all of which I can give to you, young master!”
Xue An shook his head and smiled slightly, “Wealth is of no use to me!”
At the utterance of this statement.
Zhu Ruyan fell silent, then with a trembling voice said, “Young master, I once made a vow that whoever could help me exact my revenge, I would serve them as my master without any regrets!”
Having said that, Zhu Ruyan looked at Xue An with eyes full of hope.
Xue An laughed and then shook his head, “It sounds tempting, but the opponent is the Kunlun Immortal Palace, you know.”
So it’s still the same!
Zhu Ruyan felt a bitter taste in her heart and gently lowered her head.
She didn’t blame Xue An since the power of the opposing party was overwhelming to the point of despair.
In fact, towards the end, Zhu Ruyan had stopped harboring any hope for revenge.
But she couldn’t reconcile with just living a muddled existence.
Revenge had permeated every aspect of her life.
If she couldn’t achieve it, then her life had no meaning.
“Thank you for coming, young master. I have intruded!” Zhu Ruyan said softly, slowly standing up.
“Please return, young master!” She forced these words out with great effort, barely holding back tears.
“However…” Xue An reclined in his chair, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
“Others may fear the Kunlun Immortal Palace, but I do not!”
This statement made Zhu Ruyan tremble, and she looked up at Xue An with disbelief.
“Young master…” she called out, quivering.
“But I want to know, what price are you willing to pay for this matter?” Xue An asked lightly.
Xue An watched indifferently.
