God-Tier Providence System-Chapter 83

"In truth, I knew long ago that you were a Millennium Flower Demon with profound cultivation, and that you stayed by my side purely to protect me."

"However, that day, the very instant you revealed your true form, I still did not hesitate to strike you down with a single sword."

"Because I could not let the world know that I only became the number one ghost catcher in the world by relying on the help of a demon."

"Thanks to your blessing, I have now achieved fame and success. My disciples are everywhere under heaven. I have become the most powerful Daoist Grandmaster in history."

"I came today specifically to bid you a final farewell."

"The former number one ghost catcher in the world could not rely on a demon’s help."

"And the current Daoist Grandmaster absolutely cannot have any ties or entanglements with a demon either."

"To ensure my sect can be passed down for a hundred generations, and that my descendants enjoy eternal respect..."

"I can only ask that everything about you, including this final memory, completely vanishes from this world."

With that, the Daoist unhurriedly raised his hand and tapped his wooden stick against the tombstone.

The tombstone instantly exploded with a loud bang, flying rocks scattered everywhere before being ground entirely into fine powder, amidst the dust and debris, the Daoist turned around and walked away.

Not so much as a single backward glance.

Shattering right alongside the tombstone was the final sliver of hopeful delusion remaining in Helen’s heart.

Watching the Daoist’s carefree, elegant silhouette retreat into the distance on the light screen, not sparing a single backward glance, Helen slumped to her knees with a heavy thud. No longer able to control her emotions, she broke down and wept bitterly.

"Husband, you... how could you treat me like this?"

"I always thought you accidentally killed me because you didn’t know my true identity."

"After killing me, you even erected a tomb for me and came to offer sacrifices every year during the Festivals."

"Could it be... could it be that all those words you said were nothing but lies?!"

Looking at Helen’s dazed and horrified appearance, Alex couldn’t help but sigh faintly.

The scenes on the light screens were not fabricated illusions.

They were events that had genuinely happened in the original novel.

Knox’s past two incarnations were exactly this kind of person. His identities as the Prime Minister of a dynasty and the First Ancestor of the Daoist Sect allowed him to possess powerful disciples and reap countless fortuitous encounters in his current life.

Yet he uniquely betrayed and failed the female demon who had faithfully followed him across three lifetimes.

"Flower Demon, I know you value emotion and righteousness. A trait incredibly rare and precious among demons." Alex said calmly. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"However, no matter how loyal your infatuation, it must be given to the right person."

"If your devotion is misplaced, you are merely throwing away your life for nothing."

"Let alone you, who has thrown away three entire lifetimes for nothing."

Tears welled in Helen’s eyes as she said hoarsely. "No, I don’t believe it..."

"Young Master Knox in this lifetime is completely different from his past two lives!"

"In this life, he would absolutely never betray me..."

"Is that so?" Alex’s face was full of frustration. Looking at the hopelessly incurable simp before him, he let out a heavy sigh.

"Very well. Since that is the case, I will let you see exactly what Knox is doing at this very moment."

"I will let you take a good, hard look at the true face of the husband you have followed for three lifetimes."

He retrieved a jade communication slip from his robes and poured mental energy into it. Instantly, the voice of Second Elder Adrian echoed from the jade slip.

"Saint Lord, what are your orders?"

"Adrian, are you still keeping an eye on Knox?" Alex asked faintly.

"Of course!" Adrian said with righteous indignation.

"Saint Lord, you have no idea. This dog Knox is truly not a fucking human!"

"Oh?" Alex asked. "What happened?"

"After Your Magnificence left that day, Aurelia dispatched Princess Flower, Nyx, to help Knox seek revenge against you."

"Although this Nyx possesses formidable strength, she is a foolish, deranged person whose mind is not quite normal."

"And this beast Knox, what he is doing to her..."

"Sigh, forget it. Better if Your Magnificence sees it for yourself."

Wisps of azure smoke drifted from the jade slip, condensing into a light screen in mid-air.

Displayed upon the screen was exactly what Adrian was witnessing at that very moment.

Under the veil of night. A shadowy, dense little forest, a cluster of campfire burning on the ground, radiating a warm, melting light.

Knox was leaning comfortably against a tree. His face the picture of absolute leisure and contentment.

And in front of him was a woman with a devastatingly beautiful face, gorgeous as a flower, Exquisite as jade.

Yet like a wild beast, she was crawling on all fours, aggressively gnawing on a chunk of raw meat.

The woman’s mouth was smeared entirely with fresh blood. Forming a sharp, jarring contrast with her beautiful face.

Knox showed absolutely no intention of stopping her.

He held roasted meat in his own hand, chewing fragrantly, watching the woman with an expression as if enjoying a monkey show.

Suddenly, Knox pulled a bell from his robes and casually shook it a few times.

Nyx jolted violently.

She darted forward and arrived right in front of Knox, knelt on the ground in abject terror, head bowed, eyes lowered.

The picture of absolute, mindless submission.

"Hahahaha, excellent!" Knox stroked Nyx’s head.

A malicious, mocking sneer on his face.

"The Heavenly Flame Empress truly gave me a wonderful treasure."

"Princess Flower, you must help me annihilate that Alex and wash the entire Hale family in blood."

"When the time comes, this young master will naturally dote on you properly, hahahaha!"

Watching Knox’s arrogant, villainous face as he reveled in his petty success on the light screen, Helen froze for a long, long time before one word involuntarily slipped from her lips.
