Eternal Thief

Chapter 890 Regrets of the Past (2)

Edward was intrigued seeing Margret showing this kind of sentiment, "Don't tell me she rebelled against you because of her man?" 

Margret glared at Edward, "No, she was very obedient. By the time she married, she was only 22, and her cultivation was Qi soul manifestation at that time while her sword law was in the intermediate realm. 

"But after her marriage, her cultivation and element law proficiency came to an abrupt halt. At first, I thought she was just distracted, and since she was already so ahead of others, I didn't think much of it. 

"However, when a year passed, Snow herself noticed that something was strange going on with her. She told me that she could no longer cultivate like before, nor could she comprehend the sword or ice law any further. 

"I was naturally skeptical and told her to cultivate by my side. When another year passed, and she still made no progress, I realized that something had gone extremely wrong. 

"Because not only can she no longer cultivate, but it started to regress instead, only by little, but I could tell it was happening. I tried feeding her all sorts of herbs and pills but to no avail. I even tried to use the Blood Scepter and took a risk of revealing it to her, but still nothing. 

"It was like she had lost all her talent, and there was only one explanation: it started to happen after she consummated with that man, and her fantastic physique seemed to have stopped working altogether." She revealed while she unknowingly gritted her teeth. 

Both Edward and Albert were shocked as they hadn't expected this sort of twist. 

"How peculiar. This could only mean that all that talent was only until she was a virgin. Such a waste." Edward sighed, but a hint of gloating was present in his voice. 

Margret sneered, "Hmph, stop with your fake empathy. I know you must be over the moon since that girl could've thrown you from your high pedestal eventually."  manhua

"Hah, like now I hadn't?" Edward scoffed, "She seemed quite important to you. So, why kill her?" 

Margret eyes turned cold, "Since she was no longer the Snow I knew, I gave up on her and left her alone. She also didn't seem bothered that much and even happy that she could live with the man she loved. It left me baffled and angry at that time, but I just cut my connection to the world. 

"But after 34 years, it came to my attention that Snow now had a son, and from him, a girl was born who caused a phenomenon on birth. A white neon sword approximately a hundred miles in diameter appeared in the sky, which caused a sensation. 

"When I heard this, you can imagine my surprise, and I headed to the Silver Ice clan that very moment to meet that child. I saw Snow after three decades, and her cultivation had regressed to the river realm. But she seemed to be truly happy and blessed. 

"She welcomed me like a mother, and she just couldn't stop talking about her child and granddaughter. It was also the first time I met Alina. She was so tiny and fragile I could've cursed her like a bug, yet so beautiful. 

"She had a birthmark of a white sword on her glabella, and do know she was emitting the aura of a soul realm cultivator!" Margret stated with a solemn tone. 

"Absurd!" 

"Impossible!" 

Both old monsters jumped on their feet when they heard this, and their expressions were pure and utter disbelieving. 

Margret solemnly said, "That was the same reaction when I had seen it with my own eyes. I knew at that moment that this child was even more brilliant than Snow and the most talented person in the entire world. 

"Learning from failure with Snow, I naturally wanted to take her away with me at that very moment. But it was then things started to get hectic. Snow and that man opposed me, and it was then I found another thing that Snow had been hiding from me all these years. 

"I only know half of the truth behind Snow's decline in cultivation, while the other half was thoroughly hidden by Snow. The thing was, she had lost all her talent, but it wasn't gone. Instead, it was transferred to that man after they consummated! 

"He was as strong as me, and when I tried to use force to take away Alina, he finally showed his true prowess. He also knows about the Blood Scepter, and it was at that time I understood that Snow had betrayed me a long time ago, and she put me through all that misery." 

Hatred shone in Margret's eyes, "I couldn't let it slide; I just couldn't! So, I used everything at my disposal to kill that bastard and that traitor. But it came with a steep price. So, I ended up using a secret technique to alter the Silver Ice Clan members' memories.

"I needed a decade to recover from my injuries, so I sealed Alina's talent with Blood Scepter and banished her for ten years with certain memories planted in their butler. 

"But it was all in vain because when Alina returned, I saw the same look in her eyes that I saw in Snow when she was in love with that bastard. I even tried to tell her about the story of her grandparents' betrayal, but that girl never trusted me. 

"So, I didn't unseal her talent as well. But even without it, she was still so talented in the sword that she quickly rose to prominence. I also thought that she could forget about that boy she fell in love with as time passed. 

"But that cursed love seemed to have run in her veins just like Snow, and she was never able to overcome it and fled to him the first chance she got. So, I tried using other means by revealing it to the Dream Shatter and asked him to kill that kid." 

A depraved smile appeared on Margret's veiled face, "But that boy turned out to be the sky stealer, and what happened afterward, you guys should know." 

Edward and Albert were speechless for a long time after they found the truth about Alina and Snow. They hadn't expected this at all, and they even felt pity for Margret. 

"You've really suffered in all these years…" Albert sighed ruefully as he didn't know what else to say. 

Edward wasn't the one to show emotions as he was the ruthless type, "You should've killed her when you saw things were not going your way. Now, that girl is with our arch-enemy. What if he had a way to break that seal?" 

Margret showed deep resentment before a maddening smile appeared on her face filled with hatred and malice, "Hmph, didn't I say I learned from my past mistakes? The moment someone tries even to probe the seal or that thief took her virginity, she'll die a horrible death in his arms, and that I can guarantee with my life!"
