Chapter 313.4: Seeing Through the Demon in the Mirror

It was a pale face without the slightest tint of colour, a little horrifying to see. The skin sagged heavily, hanging from that face, looking like one would be able to rip the skin right off the face with a slight pull.

There was a faint green tinge at the corners of the eyes and the irises were an abnormal dark red, the entire person looking as a whole, incredibly hideous and evil.

It was the demon sealed within the scrying glass.

Lou Jun Yao did not even bother to look at her but just slowly raised a hand and summoned up a flicker of violet flames on a fingertip, before he incinerated his outer shirt on him that the woman had touched into cinders.

To a woman, that dealt a deadly and lethal blow to her heart.

His contempt towards her was clear and unconcealed.

A man of such godly perfection, a high and mighty existence far beyond one's reach. To be detested and abhorred by such a being, just thinking about it would surely be more than anyone could take!

"How did you see through me?"

Though the woman looked hideous, her voice was unexpectedly pleasing to the ear, one that sounded like it would belong to a ravishing beauty. She sounded like she could not believe she had been discovered, and was still rather bothered by it.

"Didn't I look exactly like her? I was even more charming than her and knew how to win a man's heart better. Why do you not like me?"

Lou Jun Yao snorted derisively and scoffed in contempt. "You think that I am merely attracted to her looks?"

"Aren't you?" The woman retorted snappily, her tone of voice carrying a tinge of sarcasm. "Aren't all men the same everywhere in this world? Always paying attention only to a woman's looks. If she had a face like mine instead, will you still love her like you do now?"

"The reason you would forever remain sealed inside a scrying mirror like this is because you are only able to survive only by prying into the secrets hidden deep in people's hearts and to use as a tool to further your means. You are really so pathetic and have never known what love really is at all."

"Love?"

The woman appeared to be stunned for a moment. As if she had just heard some kind of a joke, she then threw her head back to laugh hysterically, laughing so hard that tears came to her eyes.

Her laughter gradually subsided and she then pointed at her abhorrently hideous face as she said in a sarcastic voice: "The love you are talking about, means to turn a person to look like this?"

"On the night of the wedding, to abandon me by locking me in the room and setting fire to it, burning me alive there and then because I discovered a secret of his. He then told the world that it was because I was tainted before the marriage and could not bear the guilt I felt towards him, claiming that was why I killed myself by self immolation as I could not live with myself."

"Is this what you call love?" The woman glared sinisterly at him and said with a mocking smile. "If that is what you call love, then I think I know what it is, and it's etched very deeply in my heart, never to be forgotten."
