Leaving behind the instructors who were left in the training ground and roaring hysterically, Raven's figure appeared in the woods outside the imperial capital, she is now considered a person who has betrayed the empire, of course, she can't swagger on the spacious official road outside the imperial capital.

Sure enough, through the cracks in the woods, she looked at another wave of cavalry rushing by, and her eyes revealed a hint of confusion.

How many waves is this? Heh, who knows...... I can't imagine that they have dispatched so many troops to arrest me, should I be moved and honored?

With a self-deprecating smile, Raven shook her head and sank back into the thick woods. After living in the imperial capital for so long, how could she not know the thoughts of those who were in power? She was cultivated as a killing machine of the empire, and poured a lot of effort into the empire, if she betrayed other empires, it would undoubtedly be a severe blow to the self-esteem of those big people in the empire, although they were not afraid of her existence, but at least they could not get over it on face.

If you can't get it, then no one else can think about it! This is the most common thought they have.

I don't know how long she walked, but Raven felt that her consciousness was blurred, and the intense hunger coming from her stomach made it difficult for her to walk. She vaguely knew that she had walked out of the woods, walked over a few hills, and crossed a few small rivers......

When she saw the shadow of a small village at the foot of the mountain not far ahead, Raven finally couldn't hold on and fell, and in the haze, she only heard an old exclamation: "Child, child, wake up......"

When she opened her eyes again, she saw a broken roof, and out of the consciousness honed over the years, she looked around vigilantly, but she didn't see any figure. Looking at the residual quilt covering her body, Raven couldn't help but be in a trance, and secretly said that she was really too nervous. She lifted the tattered quilt and sat up gently from the bed, and after a slight pause, she was surprised to find that the hunger in her belly had dissipated a lot, and because of this, she felt the bitter taste in her mouth.

"Was it saved? Like......" Raven muttered to herself with a strange expression. She never thought that she would be saved one day after being killed.

When she was about to get out of bed, she realized that the broken sword was still in her hand, but after a little thought, she understood the reason. Under the power of the wind element, her hand was almost connected to the hilt of the sword, unless it was higher than her strength or she let go of it herself, otherwise how could these ordinary people be able to take it down?

As soon as she got out of bed, there was a sound of footsteps from far and near outside the door, and Raven didn't care because she felt the vanity of her steps. Looking up calmly, he met the gaze of the old man who had just entered the house, he was startled at first, and after a flash of complexity, he immediately slowed down his face and asked with concern: "Child, why are you up? Are you still feeling hungry?"

Raven shook her head silently.

The old man nodded, and put down the bamboo basket behind his back, "You should be the person who is being arrested outside, right?" Kid, I don't think you look like a bad person, you run quickly!"

It's not like ...... Bad guy? Raven couldn't help but reach out and touch her face, this is the first time someone has said that about her, right?

Seeing that Ruiwen was not panicked, the old man couldn't help but be a little anxious, and he said in a somewhat hurried tone: "Child! It's not the old man, I won't leave you, you really should go! Otherwise, it's too late!"

"I—Am I really not like a bad person?" Raven ignored the old man's nervous expression, and suddenly asked suspiciously, probably because she had been hungry for a long time, and her voice was a little hoarse when she spoke.

The old man was stunned by her jumping words, but soon he nodded, and said with an affirmative face: "Old man, I have never looked at the wrong person!" He pointed to the broken sword in Ruiwen's hand, "I think you should be a cultivator, old man, although I am an ordinary person, I have lived for most of my life, and I still know some things......"

"Listen to me, child! No matter what you have done before, the old man still firmly believes that your heart is kind! I don't know what happened to you, but from your coma and constantly calling 'Mother', I know that you still have a good heart!"

Ruiwen looked at the old man in a daze, only to feel a sense of confusion in her mind. I—Do I really have a good heart?

Suddenly, the bloody scenes of her murder in the past flashed quickly in her mind, and those who died roared in her mind like hellish ghosts, and stretched out their hands to her hideously!

Raven hugged her head in pain, and her body continued to tremble, as if she was struggling desperately.

A hint of complexity flashed in the old man's eyes again, but looking at Raven's young face and her painful expression of struggle, his face turned into a deep distress. After sighing heavily, the old man gently walked to Raven's side, and hesitated for a while before he reached out and gently touched the top of Raven's head.

When the old man's hand just touched the top of his head, Raven's body slammed, showing a stiff state, since she was a child, this was the first time someone touched her head! As if she felt the warm feeling brought to her by the old man, slowly, her body relaxed, she looked up at her hands in confusion, "My hands are already stained with sin, can I still turn back?"

"Yes!" replied earnestly, and Raven couldn't help but shake her body and looked at the old man in surprise. The old man smiled slightly, and said: "There is a saying that 'the prodigal son does not change his money when he turns back', as long as he has a heart, what cannot be done? The most unforgivable thing for a sinner is to know his mistakes and not change them, or even to know his own mistakes." However, knowing that mistakes can be corrected is a great good! If you can recognize your own sins, then this is a great good!"

"But, how can I be forgiven?"

The old man shook his head suddenly, looked at the sky outside the door, and said faintly: "Some sins are difficult to forgive, or in other words, you can't forgive yourself......

"I ......"

The old man shook his head again, he withdrew his gaze to the sky, stared at Raven with burning eyes, and said, "Don't give up! Whether or not you can get forgiveness from others, then let's start by forgiving yourself!"

"So, how can I forgive myself?" Raven was completely confused, she was like a lost child, eager to find the right path. She looked at the old man, and only felt that the old man's body seemed to exude a kind of brilliance, wise and warm, he seemed to have become a Buddha who enlightened the world!

"Time! Only time can dilute all this! So, you need to self-exile!"

"But where should I go to exile?" Raven shook her head blankly, "There is no place in this world where I can stay......"

"Let's go, the road is under your feet!"

......

Leaving the old man, Raven embarked on a path of self-exile, but walking among the mountains and rivers, she couldn't help but fall into a daze again.

She found that the sky was big, but she didn't know where to go, even if she wanted to confirm the situation at home, but after leaving the imperial capital, she found that her memories of home had long been forgotten......

"Where should I go? wander, where is it suitable for me to wander?" When she was still at a loss, a butterfly suddenly caught her eye, and it was like a miracle! In such a cold winter, there are still butterflies! They should disappear in late autumn, is it because of the slightly warmer temperature in the mountains?

Raven didn't know why, and she didn't want to know why, she just looked at this tenacious butterfly curiously. Its color was a little gray, and its wings were broken for some reason, but it still kept flying in the air!

One up, one down, one on again......

It is very arrogant, still insisting on publicizing its beauty, trying to draw a beautiful arc in the air, Raven can't help but look stupid.

Suddenly, it seemed that it could no longer hold on, and its body fell to the ground weakly, but it still wanted to fly, and its wings were still swinging. The cold winter invaded it mercilessly, and after fighting hard for a while, it could not resist the power of nature after all, and slowly stiffened......

"Is this your insistence, even if the result is death?" Raven felt something, she closed her eyes in front of this dead butterfly, in this landscape, and under this cold winter. A hint of cyan wind cheered and danced around her......

......

At the same time, in the small courtyard of the prime minister's house of the small country who was assassinated by Raven.

White cloth hung everywhere inside and outside, and the beautiful woman and the young girl also knelt in the room and wept loudly. He is obviously the prime minister of a country, but at this moment of death, no one came to see him for the last time!

In the afternoon, the beautiful woman had just coaxed the young girl with tears in the corners of her eyes to sleep, and a noisy sound sounded outside the courtyard, and the roar of a demonic beast clearly entered the courtyard. The beautiful woman's face changed suddenly, and a touch of anger appeared in her eyes, and she walked out of the house angrily and quickly into the courtyard.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was already full of well-equipped guards, and then, a pot-bellied official slowly walked in under the arch of several people. He frowned and looked around, his face was full of disgust, and even more, he couldn't help but wear his chubby right hand, which was full of all kinds of large and small jewelry rings, and fanned hard in front of his nose, and mocked with disdain: "This prime minister lives in such a place, it's really a shame for our kingdom!"

"That's what your lord said!"

"That's right, he's dead now, this is also providential!

"Yes! Yes, congratulations, I hope you will help me more in the future!"

In an instant, several of his subordinates slapped his ass one after another, and his eyes were so happy that his eyes narrowed into a line, but he still said pretendly: "Hey, everyone, let's come to see the prime minister for the last time, let's go out and talk about these words, right?"

"That's, that's!"

Seeing that there was no one around, the anger in the eyes of the beautiful woman was even worse, and she held back her anger and shouted in a trembling voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't you think this is too much?!"

As soon as the fat official saw this beautiful woman, his eyes immediately lit up, and a trace of lewdness flashed. The princess is still so beautiful! It's really hateful, the emperor's old fool gave the princess to this old fellow, can't you just pick a palace maid?

Although he cursed secretly in his heart, the fat man still pretended to be respectful and said, "Meet the princess!"

"Hmph!" the beautiful woman knew what this person was thinking, and she didn't give him a good look at all. The fat official's self-cultivation was really not good, and he felt that he had lost face at that time, and even the eyes of the few people behind him implied ridicule. So, he was furious, and scolded with a red face: "Stinky bitch! Lao Tzu gave you face, so I called you princess! What kind of character do you really think you are?"

Now that he has torn his face, the fat official simply no longer hides his evil intentions, and then he smiled lewdly: "God is really eye-opening, that old thing is really dead...... Hehe, now, you can follow Lao Tzu with peace of mind! As for your daughter with extraordinary potential, just throw Lao Tzu's son as a concubine!"
