"I'm going to kill every single one of them," Gang Reyong said coldly, as if merely stating a fact.
"..." Jian Ruxue could only sigh in helpless resignation.
In the end, she was nothing more than a follower of Gang Reyong, powerless to go against his orders. The only resistance she had left was in her thoughts.

[Flashback of Jian Ruxue]
To the beautiful mountains and blooming sakura trees, to that peaceful, serene world she once knew.
Back to her childhood, training alongside her senior brothers and sister.
She had always been a quiet child, but one brimming with curiosity. She even had a pet parrot she adored and fed with care. It was her joy, her light, but that happiness had been short-lived, just like the parrot.
She remembered being deeply depressed, until she met her master, who responded to her grief with a single, simple sentence:
"Such is life."
