Chapter 2095 - 2088: Ji Rushuang’s Lie
"But we were all forced into this, you know that. Once you join the Blue Enchantress, you lose the right to choose... I’m begging you, give her a way to live..." Ji Rushuang gripped Wang Dadong’s hand tightly, her eyes full of pleading.
Looking at Ji Rushuang, who was on her last breath and about to die, a sharp sour ache rose in Wang Dadong’s heart.
"Alright, I promise you, I won’t take her life." Wang Dadong nodded. Not for anything else, but for this sacrifice Ji Rushuang was willing to make—sacrificing herself to fulfill Ji Ruyue.
Even though Ji Rushuang was just a personality split off from Ji Ruyue, strictly speaking, she also counted as an independent consciousness.
"Xie Xie, now I can leave in peace..." Seeing Wang Dadong agree to her request, Ji Rushuang finally showed a relieved smile.
"I still need you to help me with one more thing." Ji Rushuang said softly.
"Say it..."
Right now, Wang Dadong truly couldn’t refuse any request from Ji Rushuang.
"Kill me before my personality shifts." Ji Rushuang said lightly.
Ji Rushuang’s body was very special. Not only did she have two personalities, but her body would also switch along with the change in personality.
This should have something to do with the Cultivation Technique she practiced.
Once one body suffered a fatal injury, their personality would switch to the uninjured one.
Only by killing Ji Rushuang completely before she turned into Ji Ruyue could Ji Ruyue never transform into Ji Rushuang again.
"This..." Wang Dadong hesitated.
Even though Ji Rushuang was going to die anyway, having him do it with his own hands—he just couldn’t.
"Hurry, you must kill me before I change!" Ji Rushuang grabbed Wang Dadong’s hand.
Wang Dadong reached out and clamped his fingers around Ji Rushuang’s neck.
But very soon he loosened his grip again. "I can’t do it."
"Wang Dadong, you don’t have to go soft. I’m not some good person. My hands are drenched in blood. I’ve killed so many people, and this farm—half of it is run by me. I... deserve a thousand deaths... If I go on living, there will only be more families ruined, more people dying..." Ji Rushuang knew Wang Dadong couldn’t bring himself to do it.
Crack!
Ji Rushuang’s head suddenly tilted aside at a strange angle.
Wang Dadong had twisted Ji Rushuang’s neck with his hands.
After all, Ji Rushuang was only a personality split off from Ji Ruyue.
And just as she’d said, even though she was under the control of the Blue Enchantress, the sins she’d committed were unforgivable.
Ji Rushuang’s body began to change, but the personality that belonged to Ji Rushuang was already dead. From now on, this world would only have Ji Ruyue, and no more Ji Rushuang.
Ten minutes later, Ji Ruyue woke up.
"D‑did I become her again?" Ji Ruyue’s face was streaked with tears.
Wang Dadong nodded.
"Why, why is it like this, I don’t want split personalities..." Ji Ruyue was extremely agitated.
Schizophrenia is an illness, and a very serious one—you don’t even know what you’ve done yourself.
Watching Ji Ruyue sob, Wang Dadong sighed softly. "Don’t worry, you’ll never become her again..."
Ji Ruyue, crying like pear blossoms in the rain, lifted her head to look at Wang Dadong and asked pitifully, "Really?"
"Yeah."
"That’s great, I don’t have to turn into her, I don’t have to split anymore." Ji Ruyue broke into a smile through her tears.
"But that means she’s basically dead, gone." Wang Dadong was a little stunned.
Logically speaking, Ji Ruyue should be very dependent on Ji Rushuang.
"Gone is gone. How could I, Ji Ruyue, be that kind of cowardly woman who needs me to protect her for everything, who only knows how to cry when she’s bullied—useless!" Ji Ruyue said angrily.
"What did you say?" Wang Dadong was even more shocked.
The one who got bullied and cried, wasn’t that Ji Ruyue?
"You think I enjoy seeing her? Let me tell you, I hate her. I hate her cowardice, I hate her incompetence. If it weren’t for me, she would’ve died in the Blue Enchantress long ago." Ji Ruyue’s expression turned a bit cold.
"B‑but you clearly really wanted to see her before?" Wang Dadong’s throat bobbed slightly.
"I did want to see her, because I wanted to see exactly what that cowardly, useless woman looked like. But now that I know she’s just another personality of mine, I naturally don’t need to see her again. Having me, Ji Ruyue, in this world is enough." Ji Ruyue said coolly.
Wang Dadong suddenly realized something.
Could it be Ji Rushuang had lied to him!
What she said wasn’t the real truth?
Wang Dadong forced himself to calm down.
Because as long as it wasn’t confirmed, it might not be real.
"Ji Ruyue, do you remember when you joined the Blue Enchantress?" Wang Dadong asked.
"Something that long ago, who would remember." Ji Ruyue answered casually.
"Then do you remember anything from before you joined the Blue Enchantress?" Her answer had already confirmed at least half of his guess, so he pressed on.
Ji Ruyue hugged her head, as if trying hard to recall.
A few minutes later, Ji Ruyue shook her head in utter confusion.
"I don’t have any impression of it."
Wang Dadong swallowed again.
Looks like his guess was right!
Ji Rushuang really had lied to him.
The timid little girl who was bullied by the other Enchantresses wasn’t Ji Ruyue at all, but her.
Ji Ruyue was the personality split off from her!
She was the original owner of this body.
Since she was the owner of this body, then why would she sacrifice herself to fulfill Ji Ruyue?
"Whatever. The past memories weren’t anything good anyway. If I don’t remember, I don’t remember." Ji Ruyue said indifferently.
"No, it’s not that you don’t remember..." Wang Dadong said, his expression unbearably sad.
"What do you mean?" Ji Ruyue looked at Wang Dadong in confusion.
Wang Dadong looked at Ji Ruyue and said, enunciating each word, "The reason you don’t have memories from before you joined the Blue Enchantress isn’t because you forgot them, but... because you never had those memories in the first place."
"What are you talking about? I don’t understand." Ji Ruyue was even more confused.
"I’m saying, you’re not the primary personality..." Wang Dadong was about to reveal the truth.
Even though Ji Rushuang probably didn’t want him to tell Ji Ruyue—as her lie had already shown.
But Ji Rushuang sacrificed herself to fulfill Ji Ruyue, so he felt Ji Ruyue deserved to know.
Hearing Wang Dadong’s words, Ji Ruyue’s eyes widened instantly. "What did you say!" she exclaimed in disbelief.
Wang Dadong narrowed his eyes and said, "I’m saying... you are the personality that was split off!"
