She had gained wealth and status, supreme power, and the strongest martial arts in the world.
But what of it?
Her father hated her, her dearest sister was dead, and the man she yearned for would rather die than love her.
With no one of her own blood or love to call hers, what meaning was left in her life?
A broken smile touched her lips. "Fine, then let me tell you too," she chuckled, "It was with this hand, the one around your neck, that I personally killed your beloved Xinlan. Are you satisfied? Yes, Xinlan was killed by me, your most cherished Xinlan was killed by me!"
Hua Wuque was provoked by her words, his rage boiling as he struggled desperately to kill Jiang Yuyan.
However, under the shroud of Jiang Yuyan's immense internal energy, he could not even move.
Jiang Yuyan's smile grew increasingly desolate, a deep bitterness surfacing in her heart.
If she could not have it, then she would destroy it, ruin everything.
She raised a hand, preparing to strike Hua Wuque's forehead, to end him completely.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu'er leaped up from the ground, rushing forward to shield Hua Wuque from the blow.
One palm, then another, a third. Xiao Yu'er spat blood repeatedly. Turning, he seized the moment while Jiang Yuyan's attention was fixed on Hua Wuque, and swiftly affixed the specially made explosives to her waist.
Caught off guard, Jiang Yuyan was blown away. Furthermore, the effects of the Poison King's Holy Water began to take hold, the potent venom coursing through her body, causing unbearable agony.
Hua Wuque seized the opportunity, channeling his hatred into his Empty Wood Burial Flower technique, striking Jiang Yuyan blow after blow, kick after kick.
And so, this most fearsome and powerful female villain in history met her end at the hands of the man she loved most.
As she died, Jiang Yuyan's memories flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern. Starting with the murder of her own sister, she had committed countless wicked deeds, all stained with blood, all done in pursuit of Hua Wuque.
If she could live her life again, she would forsake wealth and status, and the supreme martial arts. She would only wish to be an ordinary woman, living a happy and carefree life.
After killing Jiang Yuyan, the audience suddenly looked back and realized that almost all the characters who had appeared in the drama were now dead.
Only the twin brothers, Xiao Yu'er and Hua Wuque, and Hua Wuque's son with Tie Xinlan, Nian Yu, remained alive.
After watching, the audience felt a sense of unease.
They remembered how cheerful the atmosphere had been when the drama first aired, with the mischievous Xiao Yu'er and the innocent Xiao Xian'er.
But as the story progressed, it grew increasingly somber. Characters appeared one after another, only to die soon after, including the female lead, proving it was a tragedy disguised as a comedy.
This melancholic atmosphere also permeated the comment section.
[Damn it, I was deceived. What comedy? It's all a lie!]
[Xiao Yu'er and Hua Wuque, the name truly fits. Only the two protagonists survived.]
[I have to say, Jiang Yuyan was incredible. She managed to take down so many people. Her life was truly legendary. If not for her infatuation, she would have become empress long ago.]
[Yes, infatuation can be deadly. If it weren't for Hua Wuque, she wouldn't have died!]
[Jiang Yuyan, how to put it? According to my understanding, it's not entirely about infatuation. Do you remember when Jiang Yuyan's true face was revealed, she told Hua Wuque that in the future, when I ascend the throne, I will have three thousand male consorts, and you will be the most favored among them. If she truly loved Hua Wuque that much, she would never have said such a thing.]
