Tantai Jin raised his eyes and looked. Under the dark sky, he saw the young girl on the tower at a glance.
Su Su had changed into the white winter coat that he’d sent, her pitch-black pupils looking towards the army. Across tens of millions of people, she “saw” him accurately at a glance.
Perhaps it was a feeling, as at that moment, the air seemed to quiet.
Tantai Jin’s hand tightly clenched the carriage. He had to admit that the moment he’d learned that Su Su had still chosen to leave even after putting on the Fuci bracelet, endless despair had appeared in his heart.
There was even an unspeakable hatred, and his heart was filled with dark emotions. Does she like Xiao Lin that much? Even though he’s dead, she still hopes to be buried alive along with him?
Ye Bing Shang’s face was bruised, and when she saw Tantai Jin, she couldn’t help but shed tears.
The Eighth Prince laughed loudly and said, “Vile little spawn, today in Linwei City I’ll ascend to the throne. Since hundreds of thousands of troops have been invited to watch the ceremony, I won’t be as ruthless and unrighteous as you. How about I return your beloved woman to you and leave the other one to be buried alive with me? Don’t worry, I’m a man of my word. Between your Madame and Miss Ye, only one can live. Who will you choose?”
As soon as those words were spoken, Ye Chufeng’s expression changed drastically.

In such an atmosphere, Curved Jade couldn’t help but look at Su Su.
Su Su’s long eyelashes trembled. She retracted her gaze and looked towards the direction of Tantai Jin.
Curved Jade didn’t know what she was thinking, or whether she hoped that Tantai Jin would choose her. But it knew that it was always sad to be given up on.
She hasn’t been cherished and loved for too long……
Thinking about it carefully, Su Su and Tantai Jin had also had their good times. The young man who’d carried her on his back to see the peach blossom tree, who didn’t allow anyone to hurt her at the bottom of the Mo River, and also on the Festival of Flowers, his look when he was hugging her on the bridge.
If she hadn’t come with a mission, she might not be where she was today.
Su Su’s fingers gently clenched into a fist.
Perhaps, even she herself didn’t know why she didn’t just kill Ye Bing Shang, but actually followed them to the top of the tower.
She came to the mortal realm and had always been giving. She wasn’t like those spiritual beings that were heartless and loveless. She also hoped that someone had cared about her during the past two years. Even if it was grandmother, Second Brother, or Tantai Jin.
Under the raging wind and snow, Su Su heard the young emperor in the carriage faintly say, “Let Bing Shang go.”
The whirring wind stopped in Su Su’s ears, and her world became quiet.
Ye Bing Shang’s eyes were filled with tears, but her face couldn’t help but reveal a smile.
Tantai Jin couldn’t help but look at Su Su, who was on the other side.
He didn’t know what expression he hoped to see. Even if it was anger, just don’t let it be indifference and contempt. He hoped that she would be regretful, and he also wanted her to have strong hatred and unwillingness, to know who the one who could give her everything was.
However, standing on that high tower, Su Su was only stunned for a moment, then actually revealed a faint smile.
There was no anger in that smile, it even had a hint of relief.
Tantai Jin suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart.
The fierce wind blew up the hem of Su Su’s clothes, and the Eighth Prince’s sword slashed towards Su Su. Tantai Jin’s eyes narrowed, and under the Soul Eating Flag, the Eighth Prince and his men’s eyes opened wide, their souls were sucked dry and their bodies collapsed.
Someone said, “What’s going on with the thunder in the sky?”
Tantai Jin looked up and his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly realized that things were out of his control. When he turned his head back, Su Su had already broken free of the rope and was standing at the highest point of the tower.
Something in his heart kept sinking, he forcefully maintained his cold expression, but couldn’t help panicking and said, “Ye Xi Wu! Step away from there!”
The purple Qi and black Qi in Su Su’s eye intertwined, and the purple lightning that was originally hidden in the sky all gathered above her head, creating a shocking scene.
Her bracelet emitted a dazzling white light, turning into a curved jade shape, and flying around her.
Seeing where Su Su was, Ye Bing Shang’s eyes flashed and she gave a signal to the Hidden Dragon Guards. As long as it’s now……
Su Su raised her hand and clenched Ye Bing Shang’s neck through the air.
Ye Bing Shang didn’t know how Su Su had discovered her. She looked horrified, as if Su Su was some kind of monster, and her legs kept struggling, “Let…… let me go……”
“You’re right, I’ve never thought highly of you.” Under the purple lightning, Su Su’s voice was as cold as a god’s. She lowered her eyes and said, “There are mayflies in the world, born in the morning and dying at dusk, and they are cleaner than a being like you. Who the h*ll do you think you are!”
Su Su tightened her hand and released it at the last moment. Ye Bing Shang fell to the ground from above, tears of fear streamed down her cheeks.
“Y-you, what actually are you……”
Su Su didn’t answer. A tiny ray of lightning came out from her fingertip and shot into Ye Bing Shang’s body. Ye Bing Shang trembled violently. Her meridians were ruptured, and she screamed out in pain.
The purple lightning grew thicker and thicker. Su Su’s purple pupil wasn’t demon-like, but instead held a tranquility that could make one’s hearts tremble.
Her pale and slender fingers made a beautiful gesture. Strike after strike of purple lightning began to enter Curved Jade, and blood began to flow out from the corner of her mouth.
The Great Dao was originally ruthless, there should be no hatred and no resentment. Curved Jade’s sacrifice, and her sacrifice, would make the world bloom with strongly fragrant flowers five hundred years later.
—— Her heart of Dao was completely firm.
The young girl closed her eyes, and the shape of a blossoming purple flower slowly appeared behind her. It was budding at first, but then it gradually bloomed.
Seeing the outline of the World Toppling Flower, Tantai Jin’s fingers froze. A year ago, in the peach blossom tree, he’d seen exactly that same flower, and had then fallen into an endless nightmare. But didn’t that flower become his own eye? How could it be with Su Su!
His left eye sharply ached. Tantai Jin covered his eye, then suddenly realizing something, his face gradually paled.
N-no, it’s impossible. She’s always hated me. People are selfish, how could she give me her eye!
He bit the inside of his cheek tightly and told Su Su, “No matter what you’re going to do, I order you to stop it immediately!”
He had never panicked like this before, and even holding the Fuci bracelet on his wrist couldn’t make him feel at ease. N-no, it won’t be like what I think!
“Tantai Jin.” Hearing his voice, Su Su opened her eyes, her dark pupils quietly “looked” at him, and she coldly said, “I’m sorry, for the six Soul Extinguishing Nails.”
N-no, not this. There was a voice in Tantai Jin’s heart saying, don’t be like this, don’t apologize!
He was suddenly afraid of what would happen, and his whole body trembled slightly.
On the tower, Su Su’s eyes became gentle and warm. She was still in darkness and said, “Even if it’s karma, I’ve paid you back with an eye. I’ll take away your evil bone and return to you the divine marrow. We have long since not owed each other anything. You hate me so much, and I used to hate you the same. But this entanglement, up until now, only feels ridiculous. Treat all the things in the past as an ill-fated relationship. I only wish that for now and forever, even at the end of darkness, there won’t be you.”
His whole body went cold and he desperately denied it, “No……. it’s not like that!”
Su Su, however, no longer wanted to hear his voice. For the first time, she felt like it was a good thing to not be able to see his face, and finally be able to make a clean break.
Purple thunder roared, and the corners of her mouth overflowed with blood, “You’ve seen the common people in the Commonage Talisman. If possible, may you henceforth follow the path of immortal Dao and bless the world with good fortune.”
She couldn’t see the world in front of her, and she didn’t know what his expression was. Fortunately, it didn’t matter anymore.
Su Su opened her arms.
Let her have a dream that she wouldn’t wake up from. In the dream, there would be ordinary people, the unmelting snow on Changze Mountain, senior brothers and senior sisters, the spiritual spring where she was born, and her home.
No darkness, no sorrow and joy of the mortal realm, and no despair and fear.
Tantai Jin realized what she was going to do and stumbled, falling off the carriage.
“Don’t! Don’t! Ye Xi Wu, don’t you dare!”
He was wrong, he shouldn’t have taken revenge against her. Why did he have to argue with her! As long as she was alive, what did it matter if she didn’t like him, if she hated him and wanted to kill him?
However, Su Su didn’t look at him, nor could she hear what he said.
Rays of white light flew out from her body, and the moment her spiritual root and soul entered Curved Jade, all of the purple thunder and lighting also entered the divine jade, turning into a piece of pure white divine marrow, and entering Tantai Jin’s body.
The thunder clouds dispersed and the sky became bright. There was a heavy snowfall blanketing the earth, drifting down.
She opened her hand, like a fluttering butterfly, and leapt down from the city tower.
And under the city tower, the figure in black tried to come over and catch her as if he was crazy.
He ran so fast, and got up immediately when he fell, but he was too far away, so far away, like a road where he could never see hope.
Just when he remembered to catch her with the Soul Eating Flag, the Soul Eating Flag was cut through by the divine marrow, and the entirely pitch-black evil bone was drawn out from him inch by inch, rendering him at that moment, completely unable to move.
He watched as the snow in the air became quiet and slow, as if the world had been cut into two.
Outside of the world, the Fuci bracelet on the young girl’s wrist shattered into pieces.
She too, like the golden bracelet, shattered beneath the city tower, in front of his eyes.
Inside of the world——
His right eye was cold and ruthless, watching all of it like an outsider.
However, from his left eye, big drops of pearl-like blood tears were already streaming down his face.
He reached out towards her.
He couldn’t feel her temperature, only the ice-cold snow and bone-chilling wind, cold enough to make one shiver.

I already read the MTL version last year and had a good cry then. But this still made me cry. My heart! I can’t wait for this scene in the TV adaptation. I’m so happy they’re played by Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi—they’re some of my most favorite actors.

But yes the show is awesome! It sucks the curved jade was in the show. It played a huge part one the first arc!!!

I browsed through social media right after reading this to heal from the pain. Then I went back an re-read the whole thing, but goodness, I wailed again!!! I can’t stop crying. 😭😭😭
Thank you so much for your translations! She finally jumped from the tower. I’ve been waiting for this. No w begins his true pain.
Ps, already watched the first two episodes of the drama. Looks like they already changed some things. Curved jade hasn’t shown up 🙁
Thank you for reading!!!
Yeah, they changed some things, but the quality is still good, so yeah…there won’t be Curved Jade I think…
Omg this chapter is finally here! Thank you so much for your care and detail with translations so far! I’m so excited for the show too. I read this chapter this morning then watched episode 8 and that boat scene totally GAVE ME PTSD!!! The show writers 100% made that scene the way they did on purpose I think.
There’s no way the show will adapt the novel honestly bc frankly the novel is definitely way darker, toxic, and traumatic. I can’t wait to keep reading these chapters! Can’t thank you enough!
Thank you very much for leaving such a long comment!!! You watch so fast huh? I finished EP 6 yesterday and I don’t wanna continue watching the rest, otherwise I’m gonna suffer waiting for episodes 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, they can’t air too gruesome things to pass the censorship so they’ll tone it down, but the show is really good no matter what!
I am not crying *sniffles continuously*
Here you go, 🧻🧻🧻🧻🧻
What a ride this was! Crying so much I could barely read the last part of the chapter.
Thank you so much for the translation, this is by far my favorite C-novel of all time.
That was me when I was tl-ing this chapter…can’t see the screen properly to check what I have typed 😂😂😂
Thank you so much for reading!!!!!
Finally!!! I just hope Susu can have some peace after this catastrophe passes. She deserves to be happy and enjoying life without those sc*mmy people involve. Thanks for the chapter
She’ll be enjoying her life… or not…huhu sc*mmy people are everywhere…

My chest is so heavy, I can’t even write what I’m feeling.
😭😭😭
This story is so good. Thank you for translating!
Aaaaah i haven’t cried so much in a long while😭 this is too heartbreaking and the build-up is just as powerful as the climax. This story is gold. Thank you soooo much.
No im not crying. You are!
Who’s cutting onions!!! 😭
She was still waiting for Him and apologized for the nails. They had a chance for happiness and they blew it – both of them. I am not into “this kind of relationship” – for me, this would be a red flag. A signal to run as fast as I can. But they seem to be a match made in heaven – they have so little empathy…And they blew it, to the point there was no return. I am glad that I have watched the show. It brings me to this site and I am reading against my better judgement and the story is amazing. Better than a drama – although the relationship type is disputable at best.
