Why didn't he fight back in Chapter 303?
“No,” Bai Ruoan shook her head, a cold glint in her eyes, her voice low, “However, I already have someone I suspect. It’s either the Bai Zijian brothers or their wet nurse.”
"Then why haven't you made a move yet?" Shen Yunxi's tone remained calm, as if she were discussing something insignificant.
Bai Ruoan gave a bitter smile, her tone full of helplessness: "I have no evidence."
Shen Yunxi gazed at the swaying shadows of the trees on the ground. At the boundary between light and shadow, the light and shadow were dappled, just like her complex and unpredictable mood at this moment.
She said calmly, "You can't kill someone just because you have evidence."
Bai Ruoan stared at her blankly, her eyes filled with confusion.
He never imagined that Shen Yunxi, who was always gentle and kind, would say such a thing.
“Murder doesn’t need a reason,” Shen Yunxi continued, her tone calm and undisturbed, as if stating a simple fact.
Bai Ruoan forced a smile and said with a wry smile, "Rumor has it that you wouldn't even step on an ant, so why are you saying this now?"
“You said it yourself, it’s just a rumor.” Shen Yunxi smiled, a hint of self-mockery in her smile. “However, even if everyone knows I’m kind, everyone is hostile towards me.”
Bai Ruoan was stunned for a long time after hearing this. He looked at Shen Yunxi, feeling a mix of emotions.
Yes, everyone in Beiyuan Kingdom knows that fifteen-year-old Shen Yunxi is very kind. She will never refuse anyone who asks for her help, no matter how unreasonable the request may be.
So, what exactly did she go through in those six years? His gaze fell on Shen Ruoning and Shen Ruoyu, and suddenly he knew the answer!
The people on this continent are extremely hypocritical. You can give your all to be good to others, but no one is truly good to you.
He gazed at Shen Yunxi's gentle facial features, a sudden realization dawning on him, and a relieved smile appeared on his lips: "Yes, killing doesn't need a reason."
The confusion in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a resolute determination.
Since they all have doubts, then kill them all, nip them in the bud, and eliminate any future troubles!
Whether it's Bai Zijian and his brothers, or their wet nurse, he won't let anyone who threatens him go.
Shen Yunxi had no idea that her casual remark was like a thunderbolt, completely changing Bai Ruoan's entire belief, pulling him out of the abyss of indecision, and guiding him onto a completely new path.
The Bai Ruoan of the past was kind, cowardly, and indecisive; now, his eyes gleam with a cold light, as if he has been reborn from the ashes.
At this moment, a commotion arose from the surroundings. Some people saw Shen Yunxi and her two children with Bai Ruoan, and their faces showed contempt as they mocked, "Are those two good-for-nothings sticking together for warmth? How laughable!"
"They're just here to coast along; they have absolutely no skills!"
The sharp and sarcastic words pierced Bai Ruoan's pride like needles. He clenched his fists, his eyes burning with anger.
Shen Yunxi noticed Bai Ruoan's emotional change and calmly said to him, "One is a fourth-level Spirit Emperor, and the other is a fifth-level Spirit Emperor. I've suppressed their companion soul spirits. Can you fight them?"
Instead of directly helping Bai Ruoan, she gave him a chance to challenge himself.
Bai Ruoan did not answer directly, but silently picked up the Snow Condensation Bow and walked resolutely toward those who were mocking him.
He knew that Shen Yunxi was helping him become stronger, so he would not back down; he would prove himself with his own strength!
