LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 210
Chapter 210: The Dragon Princess’s Lament
In this way, it can be explained why I have always been considered a villain. No matter the lifetime, I have been hated by loved ones and betrayed by those I trusted.
At this moment, watching himself quietly stand before the Heavenly Emperor accepting judgment, Ye Xuan thought to himself.
After all, being misunderstood and wronged repeatedly, even he found it hard to believe his own storyline. If someone watched his entire story, they might suspect he had some grand conspiracy, intentionally setting things up for others to misunderstand and wrong him.
However, it seemed that this was indeed the case. But now, he need not worry. From now on, no matter which heroine or protaganist he encounters who misunderstands and wrongs him, he can blame it on the Heavenly Emperor’s punishment.
After all, it was the Heavenly Emperor’s punishment that made all this a destined cause and effect. Thinking of this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but praise his own genius.
“Uh…”
Seeing everyone around looking at Ye Xuan with pity, Mo Qingshang was a bit overwhelmed. What is with these people?
No matter how miserable Ye Xuan’s past was, he is still your enemy. Why pity him? If it were me, I would clap my hands in delight–!!!
Of course, he wouldn’t say this out loud. At this moment, he loudly asked Ye Xuan: “Ye Xuan, being abandoned by the heavens and punished by the heavenly order, you began to hate this world, right?!!”
“So, you did all these evil things?!! No matter how wronged you were in the past, what does it have to do with the world? On what grounds did you forge the Demon Emperor Sword and massacre people?!!”
“–!!!”
Mo Qingshang’s words instantly brought everyone back to their senses. Yes, no matter what grievances Ye Xuan had in the past, that was the past. Why should he transfer his hatred to the world?
Those he harmed were innocent. Instantly, the remnants of Nanzhao and Loulan, who considered Ye Xuan their enemy, felt even more hatred.
“Ye Xuan killed my clan.”
“Ye Xuan killed my King of Loulan–!!!”
“Ye Xuan killed my sister–!!!”
Countless people began to hate Ye Xuan, cursing his sins. Ye Xuan looked at the righteous face of the protagonist accusing him and couldn’t help but slightly raise his lips.
If the opponent were a heroine, he might have felt a bit of sympathy and wouldn’t have tormented them much. But since it was a male protagonist, he wouldn’t be so… merciful.
“Why are you looking at me?!”
Mo Qingshang felt a bit scared under Ye Xuan’s gaze. He knew that without the Demon Emperor Sword, he was just an ordinary cultivator. Not to mention Ye Xuan, even some slightly stronger immortals could take his life.
Ye Xuan didn’t plan to say much more and continued watching the scene in the sky. Now, let the Dragon Princess’s story continue.
Due to a moment of distraction, causing the near destruction of the world, although Ye Xuan was not the cause of the disaster, he was deemed the sinner who caused it and was banished from the heavens. At this moment, Ye Xuan was punished by the heavens, his immortal body destroyed.
The pain he endured was unimaginable to the world. Stripping an immortal of their immortal bones and roots, Ye Xuan’s screams echoed on the Heavenly Punishment Platform.
Seeing the pain Ye Xuan suffered in the scene, the Dragon Princess couldn’t help but show a look of compassion. Others could accuse Ye Xuan, but how could she, of all people, blame him?
Zhurong had said that even if Ye Xuan were killed, he wouldn’t be disturbed while playing. Yet, just hearing she was in danger, Ye Xuan immediately lost focus for a moment.
This proved how much Ye Xuan valued her at that time. Although she had no memory of that period, she couldn’t deny that past. She truly owed Ye Xuan too much.
If Ye Xuan hadn’t killed her father and taken his dragon soul and bones, she should have been on his side.

In the sky, a divine light descended, and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady escorted Ye Xuan’s immortal spirit to the ground. The immortal spirit dissipated, and under a mysterious rule, Ye Xuan’s body transformed into a mortal form.
Looking at Ye Xuan, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady showed a trace of regret and said: “If I hadn’t taken you to the heavens, you wouldn’t have had this experience. I’m sorry.”
“Your words are too kind, Goddess.” Ye Xuan, now a mortal again, bowed to the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady.
“If it weren’t for your favor, I would have turned to dust hundreds of years ago. How would I have the chance to stand on this familiar earth again today?”
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady shook her head slightly, her eyes showing a trace of guilt as she slowly disappeared into the sky. “The Heavenly Emperor ordered that I can’t help you, only bring you here.” After these words, she vanished completely.
Looking at the sky, Ye Xuan also felt a sense of melancholy. “Eternal life without reincarnation, lacking family and romantic ties, those I love will hate me, those I trust will betray me, and painful memories will never fade…”
“Is such a punishment truly deserved for a mere mortal like me?”
“Brother Ye Xuan–!!!” At that moment, a joyful voice came from the shore. It was the Dragon Princess.
She wore a blue dragon robe, her long black hair dancing in the sea breeze, making her look like a goddess. The surrounding sea colors could only serve as a backdrop to her unparalleled beauty. She had grown up.
During the time Ye Xuan was locked in the heavens for repairing the sky, centuries had passed in the mortal world.
“Are you… Shuang’er?” Seeing the girl before him, Ye Xuan was astonished.
“Yes, it’s me–!!!” The Dragon Princess ran to Ye Xuan, looking at him with excitement.
Then, tears flowed from her eyes. “Brother Ye Xuan… someone has told me everything. I’m sorry. I didn’t know the truth before. I thought you abandoned me, but it was my father who forced you to leave–!!!”
She hugged Ye Xuan tightly, crying out: “I also know… you were severely punished by the Heavenly Emperor because of me. It wasn’t your fault. I was the root cause. Why didn’t the Heavenly Emperor punish me instead?!!”
————
“Uh…”
Watching the scene of the Dragon Princess hugging Ye Xuan, the surrounding immortals looked at her with strange expressions.
“Ahem…” The Dragon Princess coughed awkwardly.
Had she really hugged Ye Xuan?
Mo Qingshang’s face turned green with anger. To him, the Dragon Princess, such an unparalleled beauty, should be cold and aloof, waiting for him, the protagonist, to conquer her. But now, she was hugging Ye Xuan?
