Chapter 433: I Don’t Love You Anymore

Lu Ye stared blankly at the three people in front of him, his brows quickly knitting together.

How did these three know he was coming out of No Return Cave?

“Brother Lu Ye, I’ve learned the Supreme Emotion Immortal Sutra! I’m not useless anymore! My Emotion Dao definitely won’t disappear this time. I miss you so much, come here for a hug!”

Shangguan Huanling charged at Lu Ye with open arms, her face beaming with joy.

Looking at Shangguan Huanling’s lovestruck expression, Lu Ye’s fists tightened in an instant.

Now that I’ve formed my Primordial Force, it’s the perfect time to test my damage level!

Shangguan Huanling quickly closed in on Lu Ye.

As Lu Ye readied to throw a punch, however, Yue Hongling snagged Huanling’s hand, bringing her to a halt.

“Senior Brother hasn’t forgiven you yet, don’t lunge at him!” Yue Hongling said hurriedly.

“Huh? No way! I’ve already mastered the Supreme Emotion Immortal Sutra. My Emotion Dao really won’t disappear. Brother Lu Ye hasn’t forgiven me because he’s afraid I’ll lose my Emotion Dao again once we reconnect. That’s not happening anymore; it’s time for Brother Lu Ye to forgive me!” Shangguan Huanling insisted.

Lu Ye couldn’t help but laugh in anger.

“Who put that thought into your head?” Lu Ye asked.

“It was Master Sun!”

Sun Ruowei???

Heaven knows I never said that! What I meant was, you need to stabilize your Emotion Dao from your past life before worrying about getting back together with Lu Ye; otherwise, Lu Ye will always be anxious about you disappearing again.

I said there’s a possibility of forgiveness; did you just hear, “forgive you”?

Lu Ye glanced at Sun Ruowei.

Seeing her confused expression, he realized Shangguan Huanling was once again imagining things.

Yue Hongling looked at Lu Ye, her eyes full of affection and tenderness.

“Senior Brother, don’t blame Shangguan Huanling. She missed you too much and was really worried about you after finding out you entered No Return Cave. We’ve been waiting here for a long time.”

“We don’t have any other intentions; we just want to apologize to you face-to-face.”

“I’m sorry for my prejudice against you in my past life.”

“I’m sorry for my distrust of you in my past life.”

“I’m sorry for being rude to you in my past life.”

“I’m sorry for poisoning you in my past life.”

“I’m sorry for ruining your path of Dao in my past life.”

“I’m sorry for my stubbornness in this life.”

“Senior Brother, I’m truly, truly sorry!”

As Yue Hongling spoke, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

Just one of her caused so much suffering for him; how did he manage to bear it with eight women?

How did I become this kind of person?

Clearly, Senior Brother was the one who treated me the best, yet I harbored hatred for him all because of a mere fleeting encounter with a Demon Clan member, ruining his path of Dao in the process.

This heartfelt apology from Yue Hongling was incredibly moving.

She truly seemed to understand her mistakes.

Lu Ye listened intently to her words.

He couldn’t help but feel a bit sentimental; it seemed Yue Hongling really realized her wrongs.

Good!

However, Lu Ye didn’t experience any significant emotional turmoil because, at this point, he had long lost his affection for these people.

The moment he underwent the Three Lifetimes Tribulation.

Now, while Yue Hongling was apologizing, Lu Ye felt a twinge of sentimentality, but no emotional waves.

It was a simple matter; he just didn’t love her anymore!

What’s done is done, and what’s to come can be pursued.

The past errors can’t be repaired, and he hoped Yue Hongling could change in the future, but those mistakes must never occur again in his life.

They will never happen again in his life.

However, if Yue Hongling truly wakes up, that would be a good thing.

A faint smile appeared on Lu Ye’s face at that moment.

But when Yue Hongling saw Lu Ye smile, her face turned ashen!

No…

No…

Brother, you can’t, you can’t do this…

“Congratulations,” Lu Ye said calmly.

“No, Senior Brother, I truly realize my mistakes! I really do!”

Yue Hongling suddenly fell to her knees, tears streaming down freely.

“Senior Brother, please don’t do this to me. Don’t let it go, don’t let it go!”

Yue Hongling was panicking, extremely panicking.

Her greatest fear was that Lu Ye would let it go; even if Lu Ye hated her, that was better than indifference.

Hatred meant recognition of wrongdoing, a chance for redemption. But if he resigned himself, what would that mean?

That would mean Lu Ye had no feelings left for her; how could she ever win him back again?

Impossible!

She’d never be able to win Lu Ye back!

Shangguan Huanling looked confused, “Hongling, what’s wrong? Isn’t Brother Lu Ye smiling? He really looks good when he smiles!”

Lu Ye…

Just pretending he didn’t hear Shangguan’s foolishness.

Lu Ye looked at Yue Hongling.

“The past is already behind us; it’s also my fault for not knowing how to love in my previous life. You were wrong, and so was I.”

“This life is a new beginning. Since it’s destined to be a mistake, there’s no need to start it. I’ll cultivate my Dao, and you live your life; we needn’t intertwine anymore. That would be for the best.”

What Lu Ye said reflected his true thoughts at that moment.

“No way!”

Yue Hongling shouted loudly.

“No way, Senior Brother, I love you! I love you so deeply! How can you…”

“But I don’t love you anymore.”

In a calm tone, he uttered the most heartless words.

I don’t love you anymore.

From the moment betrayal began.

No matter how despicable Lu Ye was, he wouldn’t stoop to continuing to love someone who callously betrayed him and ruined his path of Dao, right?

Hearing those words hit Yue Hongling like a thunderbolt.

Her body froze, disbelief evident in her eyes as she stared at Lu Ye.

Love and affection? Lu Ye had long since lost his feelings. If he still had feelings, with someone as perfect as Shen Xitang, even if she’s an illusion, considering Lu Ye’s past life personality, he’d have replayed that a thousand times over.

Even for Little Heavenly Dao, he would have already taught her what the Heavenly Dao is, along with yin and yang principles.

There might even be more outrageous things, like raindrops falling for three days and nights, sounding like his beloved was on the phone underneath him…

Yue Hongling didn’t say anything else, her expression dull, just kneeling there as tears kept flowing.

Shangguan Huanling watched, feeling heartbroken. She thought she should set an example for Yue Hongling; how could one simple statement of “I don’t love you” defeat their brave warrior?

“Brother Lu Ye, do you still love me?” Shangguan Huanling asked.
