A man dressed entirely in white stood at the door. His handsome face was as pale and beautiful as the first snow. His expression was distant and aloof but it exuded as much elegance as a painting.

“Qingxue, you’re here.” Lin Wanyue’s eyes immediately lit up as she sashayed over. Yun Qingyan couldn’t help but wonder if Lin Wanyue’s waist would break if she continued walking like that.

“The elders are hurrying us to set off as soon as possible and they’ve already gathered in the plaza.” Baili Qingxue paused for a moment. “Is Yun Qingyan here yet?”

His clear eyes spotted Yun Qingyan across the classroom against the window. Her black eyes were staring straight at him, and she was looking at him with some disdain and pity.

Lin Wanyue was about to catch hold of Baili Qingxue’s arm when she heard these words and froze for a moment before regaining her composure before answering his question. “Qingyan is already here.”

Her gentle hands reached for Baili Qingxue, but he avoided her touch very inconspicuously.

Lin Wanyue’s hands were hidden in her long sleeves and she clenched them into tight fists.

“I’m sorry.” There was a slightly apologetic look in Baili Qingxue’s eyes. He still wasn’t quite used to someone else touching him.

But when he thought about this, a strange suspicion appeared in Baili Qingxue’s heart. During those days he spent in the cave, wasn’t he already used to her touching him? Could it be that too much time had passed since then and his body had already forgotten that feeling?

“It’s… it’s alright.” Lin Wanyue squeezed a smile out.

“Yun Qingyan! Yun Qingyan! Why did it have to be YOU of all people?!” Lin Wanyue screamed in her heart.

“Let’s go then.” Baili Qingxue walked out first

Yun Qingyan folded her arms and looked on disdainfully as Baili Qingxue walked out.

“See! What’s the point of sacrificing so much for him? In the end… he can’t even tell who on earth really saved him back then.” Lin Wanyue said to the girl who had died so terribly for nothing in her heart.

She used one of her hands to touch her cheek.

The green spots on this face weren’t here when this body was born.

Even though Yun Qingyan was poisoned at a very young age, the effect of the Bitter Sea Green Lotus and Grand Master Yun’s tender loving care helped to make sure that the poison did not spread in her body. She didn’t look very good because she was undernourished for many years. However, she didn’t always have all these green spots on her face or look so scary.

These green spots appeared after she saved Baili Qingxue.

The Bitter Sea Green Lotus was a Sacred Item and it continues to be even though it was not a properly developed one. Yun Qingyan had a terrible poison inside of her, but her blood was an excellent antidote for poisons. Grand Master Yun was afraid that anyone who found out about this might bring harm to her, so he never let anyone know about this.

Back then, someone was after Baili Qingxue’s life and he had been severely injured, and his eyes had been poisoned into blindness. Yun Qingyan was lost in the countryside when she found and saved him.

Yun Qingyan took a liking to this young man who was as clear as the first snow and decided to cure his blindness by letting him drink her blood.

Baili Qingxue ran a high fever when the antidote was at work. Yun Qingyan was weak after losing so much blood, but still dragged her body to the riverside in hope of getting water for him, but she ended up fainting along the way.

The power of the Bitter Sea Green Lotus had decreased as a result of her bloodletting, and the poison in her body seized the chance to make its attack. Yun Qingyan was on the verge of dying when Guanghan finally found her after combing the countryside and brought her back to the Yun family. They finally managed to revive her after using all sorts of high-grade treasures to treat her.

The result of the poison making its attack was that Yun Qingyan had several patches of green freckles and spots on her face. Now she looked like some demon and was very frightening to behold.

Yun Qingyan had been frightened by herself in the bronze mirror so many times. She even had things thrown at her and was called a monster by many people when she went out.

From then on, the rumor of the good-for-nothing of the Yun family being ugly beyond hope spread through the rest of the Beian Nation.

Nobody knew how hurtful those words were to a young girl.

Her only hope and light in her life were to wait for that young man who was as clear as snow to fulfill his promise and marry her.

But the only thing that awaited her at the end was that distant and heartless man who didn’t even want to look at her just before she died.
