The Untamed ( Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan )
Chapter 113 : Memories
Reached your limit and were momentarily outraged? Would any outraged person kill someone with the
expression that you had on? Would they purposely pick the discreet forest that had just been through a battle? Would they kill them with the Wen Sect's sword, the Wen Sect's technique in disguise as a Wen-dog's stealth attack to put the blame on someone else? You've clearly been deliberately planning this out!" Meng Yao raised his hand in assurance,
"I'm telling the truth! Each and every sentence!"
Nie MingJue raged, "Even if it's true, you still souldn't kill him! It was only some trivial achievements! Do you care about such a handful of glory that much?!"
Meng Yao murmured, "Some trivial achievements?" He spoke in a shaking voice, "... What do you mean, some trivial achievements? ChiFeng-Zun, do you know how much work I put into such trivial achievements? How much I suffered? Glory? Without the handful of glory I have nothing!"
Nie MingJue looked at him, who shivered as tears gleamed in his eyes. The contrast between the scene and how he calmly killed someone was too stark. The impact was so great that the image still hadn't faded from his mind. He spoke, "Meng Yao, let me ask you. The first time I saw you, did you purposely act for me in that pitiful way, so that I'd come to your rescue? If I didn't, would you have done what you did today and killed all of those people?" Meng Yao's Adam's apple bobbed, where a drop of cold sweat rolled off. Just as he was about to speak, Nie MingJue ordered, "Don't lie in front of me!"
With a quiver, Meng Yao swallowed the words he was about to say. Kneeling on the ground, his entire body shook. The fingers of his right hand dug deeply into the dirt. After a while, Nie MingJue slowly put his sword back into its sheath, "I won't do anything to you." Meng Yao looked up at once. Nie MingJue continued, "On your own, go confess to the LanlingJin Sect and receive your punishment. Let them deal with you whichever way they deem fit."
