You Are My Only Sunshine

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: So Much Hate, So Much Regret
 

As if reading his mind, the man who was beating him gritted his teeth and said, “Ling Chongsheng, don’t blame me! If you should blame anyone, blame yourself. You shouldn’t have betrayed Mr. Chu! And you shouldn’t have thought about leaving the Heavenly Sect!”

“So it’s all my fault?” Ling Chongsheng asked with a cold laugh, blood streaming down his face.

“Yes, it’s all your fault—” Following that, more fists pounded on his body.

Although the others felt somewhat reluctant, all of them silently looked on.

Even if Ling Chongsheng had been good to them, treating them like brothers, they were all members of the Heavenly Sect, and their master was Chu Zhongtian.

The person who provided them with benefits was also Chu Zhongtian, so of course, they couldn’t possibly sacrifice their own interests for Ling Chongsheng.

Therefore, they had no choice but to sacrifice him!

Ling Chongsheng had truly not expected that his so-called brothers, whom he valued wholeheartedly, would be so indifferent.

Not a single person stood up to speak for him…

All were silent, even if he was being beaten to death, they just watched in silence.

It was hard to believe he hadn’t wanted to betray them, that he was willing to die to protect them.

Even knowing that Chu Zhongtian had betrayed him, he had still considered coming back to save him.

But what was the result?

He had actually come to give his life for a bunch of ingrates!

Thinking of this, Ling Chongsheng was filled with hatred and regret.

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have been soft-hearted; he wouldn’t have come back…

But fortunately, he had kept one move in reserve; he hadn’t been so naive as to truly believe they would definitely take his side.

It should be about time now.

Just as he was almost beaten to death, Ling Chongsheng suddenly laughed proudly. Chu Zhongtian saw this, and his brow furrowed slightly, “Enough.”

With that command, the beating immediately stopped.

Ling Chongsheng’s body was thrown aside, and then he fell to the ground like a piece of torn cloth, covered in blood.

Chu Zhongtian stepped forward, looking down at him from a height, and coldly said, “How about it, now do you know what the consequences of betraying me are?”

“Heh…” Ling Chongsheng slightly raised his eyes, opening his mouth weakly, “Chu Zhongtian, you… you will come to a bad end…”

Chu Zhongtian let out a cold laugh, “Talking tough even on the brink of death. Chongsheng, although we are half-brothers with different fathers, I truly saw you as a brother. Why couldn’t you obey for the sake of a woman? I was at ease with you managing the Heavenly Sect; together as brothers, we could have conquered even greater territories. But instead, you chose to be a deserter. Did you think I would let you off that easily?”

Ling Chongsheng spat out a mouthful of fresh blood in anger!

He regretted his foolishness; he should never have stayed to defend the Heavenly Sect for him!

He considered him a true brother, trusted him unconditionally, and so helped him with everything.

All these years, he had even managed the Heavenly Sect with no complaints or regrets.

Other than reaping the rewards, what had Chu Zhongtian done?

And now, everything had become his fault.

And he had ended up in this plight…

Ling Chongsheng truly regretted everything to his core.

It was all self-inflicted, well deserved! If he could do it over, he would definitely not be so foolish; he would definitely kill him!

“Chu Zhongtian, don’t be smug… Heh, soon, you too will come to a bad end!” Ling Chongsheng cursed viciously.

Chu Zhongtian frowned, a suspicion suddenly arising in his heart, “What have you done?”

“Haha, hahaha…” Ling Chongsheng didn’t answer, but just laughed with pride.

Chu Zhongtian felt an increasingly unpleasant premonition and, grabbing the collar of his shirt, demanded sharply, “I’m asking you, what exactly have you done?!”

But Ling Chongsheng still didn’t answer, just staring at him and laughing with pride.
