Chapter 189 - 187: Why Not Get Married?
"Yes, it was Shen Qinghe who struck me with an ancient divine artifact, and it was her ’Heterodox Cultivation Manual’ that she gave me which made me become like this," Nan Sheng said through gritted teeth, sweating coldly from the pain.
Qu Nian asked Nan Sheng to show him the ’Heterodox Cultivation Manual,’ but she had already returned it to Shen Qinghe; only she still remembered the entire content of the secret manual and roughly recounted it.
After listening, Qu Nian knew what had happened; the so-called Heterodox Cultivation Manual’s first half contained orthodox immortal cultivation techniques, while the latter half detailed the mental methods of the demonic path. It was no wonder that Nan Sheng had gone mad and become obsessed after practicing according to the manual.
Nan Sheng, realizing she had been schemed against by Shen Qinghe so early on, clenched her teeth in fury.
It appeared that from the beginning, Shen Qinghe had set a trap for her, and had it not been for Qu Nian’s encounter today and his assistance in resolving her confusion, she wouldn’t have known what was happening even as she fully went mad and became obsessed.
"I cannot go mad and become obsessed; you must have a way to save me, right?" Nan Sheng asked, gripping Qu Nian’s arm in desperation.
If it had been anyone else, Qu Nian could have remained indifferent, but Nan Sheng was his only daughter. How could he possibly stand by and watch her meet such a fate?
Seeing that Qu Nian remained silent, Nan Sheng wept bitterly, "Back then you abandoned me, mother remarried, do you know how much I hated you both? If you didn’t love me, why did you bring me into this world? Father, it is you and mother who owe me!"
Qu Nian wanted to say that wasn’t true.
He had given her an immortal pill that transformed her from a mortal into a female cultivator capable of cultivating—an opportunity he had provided for her.
The only person he owed in his life was Sanniang.
