Despite this, Meng Yao only smiled, not at all angered. With a snap of his fingers, one of the Wen Sect's cultivators came over on his knees. Both hands above his head, he positioned a long box before Meng Yao's hands.

Meng Yao opened the box and took out a certain object, "Sect Leader Nie, why don't you take a look at what this is?"

It was Nie MingJue's saber, Baxia!

Nie MingJue was infuriated, "Get lost, now!"

However, Meng Yao had already taken Baxia out and was holding it in his hand, "Sect Leader Nie, Baxia had been in my hands quite a few times in the past. Don't you think it's already too late for you to be angry now?"

Jin Guangyao tightly shut his eyes.

Before coming to the cloud Reccess, Nie Mingjue had finally started treating him somewhat normally again, -choosing to ignore that past incident little by little.

But this cursed book showed no mercy.

It mercilessly tore open old wounds that people had desperately tried to bury.

And it was not only Jin Guangyao suffering because of it.

Almost everyone present had their scars exposed, their pain dragged back into the light, or their hidden truths laid bare before the entire cultivation world.

Jin Guangyao had never truly expected anyone to understand his pain.

He had long grown accustomed to enduring everything alone.

Yet even then, it hurt unbearably to watch all his dreams, struggles, and years of hard work crumble into nothing before his eyes.

Nie MingJue spoke one word at a time, "Take your hand off it!"

As though purposely trying to enrage him, Meng Yao weighed the saber in his hand and commented, "Sect Leader Nie, your saber, I'd say, can pass as a top-tier spiritual weapon. With that said, compared to the saber of your father, the previous Sect Leader Nie, it's still somewhat inferior. Why don't you take a guess at how many times Sect Leader Wen has to slap it for it to break this time?"

Within a split second, all of the blood in Nie MingJue's body rushed to his head. Wei WuXian's scalp was also numb by the sudden anger. He commented in silence, Just brutal.

The thing in Nie MingJue's life that he loathed and regretted the most was the death of his father.

"Did you truly stoop this low just to gain Wen Ruohan's trust?" Wen Qing questioned suspiciously while staring at Jin Guangyao.

She and Wen Ning had also once hidden their true intentions while helping Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng under the Wen Clan's watch-

But Jin Guangyao's methods felt far more ruthless.

"Or," she continued coldly, "were you simply taking advantage of the situation to humiliate Sect Leader Nie?"

Even Lan Xichen looked visibly shaken by Jin Guangyao's actions.

Someone as intelligent and calculating as Jin Guangyao could easily have avoided reopening such painful wounds.
