The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast
Chapter 277 - Chapter 277 Chapter 277 A Mortal World Without You

Chapter 277: Chapter 277: A Mortal World Without You Chapter 277: Chapter 277: A Mortal World Without You “Sister, why are you crying?” Little Taotie blinked, his large eyes full of concern.

A tear slid down the corner of her eye.

Red Garment Ah Piao reached out, staring blankly at the sad tear.

Too many years had passed, memories had long since blurred.

“Ah Nuo, do you really want to call off the engagement?” The man’s voice was soft, carrying a trace of humbleness, “Is there something wrong with me? I can change…”

She resolutely handed over the letter ending the engagement, her voice cold, “In this world, there is no longer Ah Nuo, only Leng Kai!”

In the great fire, her elder brother had tried to save her and perished in the flames.

From that day on, Leng Nuo was already dead.

She had to live for her brother, to fulfill his wish, to go into battle and slay all enemies with her sword!

She looked up into the man’s sorrowful and affectionate eyes, locked away the love for him in her heart, and treated him with all the coldness she possessed.

“Does it have to be this way?” The man looked at her sadly.

“If you love me, then you should understand me.”

Upon hearing this, the man gave a sorrowful smile and finally pressed his seal on the letter.

From then on, they went their separate ways, each finding their own happiness.

She drew thick eyebrows on her face, donned armor, and became almost identical to her fraternal brother.

Before leaving, she couldn’t help herself and quietly climbed over the wall into the Marquis’ Mansion to take one last look at him, because she knew once she left the capital, she would never return in this life.

Behind the screen, she heard his hoarse voice, “Is it you who has come?”

She didn’t dare to step forward, stopping in front of the screen.

“I guessed you would come before you left,” he said gently, his voice laced with a hint of joy.

She remained silent.

“After this farewell, you will be bravely fighting on the battlefield, and I will pray for you before Buddha, wishing for your safety and peace.”

As he spoke, he emerged from behind the screen, wearing monk’s robes, having already taken the tonsure.

She stepped back repeatedly, nearly losing her balance and falling to the ground, barely steadying herself with the support of a desk, looking at him in disbelief.

“We have already called off the engagement, with your family background and talents, you could marry a woman a hundred times better and kinder than me! Why would you…”

“There will be no woman better than you,” he said with a light laugh, his smile revealing a sense of liberation, “To torment each other for a lifetime with a woman who does not love me would be worse than devoting myself to Buddha, to the ancient light for a lifetime.”

“Why… why do you torment yourself like this…” She shed tears, but without stopping, she turned and fled in a panic. As she was leaving, she said hoarsely, “I have wronged you, if there is an afterlife… I swear I will not fail you again!”

Red Garment Ah Piao withdrew from the distant memory, looking at the tear in her palm, and smiled bitterly, “Back then, I thought there would be an afterlife, but it’s not the case.”

Red Garment Ah Piao looked long at the Rainbow Relic Beads Bracelet, her smile full of desolation, “You have become a Buddha, and I can no longer approach you. Drinking the Oblivion Soup in front of the Reincarnation Hall would only make me completely forget you, to reincarnate in a mundane world without you for eternity… What’s the point?”

Little Taotie raised his head to look at her, only to see the resentment on Red Garment Ah Piao’s forehead was thick and tangible.

Hua Jinyan, fearing she might harm Little Taotie, stepped forward to shield him, his eyes filled with vigilance as he looked at her.

Red Garment Ah Piao met the little boy’s wary eyes, saw the way he unhesitatingly protected the little girl behind him without a second thought, and it was as if she saw the delicate scholar who knew no martial arts, standing in front of her, protecting her, from a time long past.

Red Garment Ah Piao sighed, “It’s getting late. You should go back now, this is not a good place, and you are not allowed to come here again.”
