Love or Lie (Bai Ye's Memory)

It wasn't the first time that the sword spirit had pointed her blades at him. She had done it plenty during their practices, and Bai Ye had always reveled in it, glad that he had finally found his rival. But this time was different. This time, the hard glint in her dark eyes told him that she meant every word she said—she would claim all the rest of the lives on Mount Hua if he didn't stop her. And to stop her … He had to end everything for good.

For his entire life, Bai Ye had never known the feeling of despair. He had never felt hopeless. Even on the day when he first found out about the sword spirit's situation with Twin Stars, he had believed that as long as he tried hard enough, there would always be a solution to their problem, and that things would always return to the way they were supposed to be in the end.
