In the end, it's the Supreme Emperor who is truly pitiful. The Taihuang Demon is pitiful for having waited ten years for her beloved. But what she got in return was her lover with someone else. Ten years of affection that is hard to forget.
And the Supreme Emperor? His beloved woman was raped by the family's people. In the end, she died miserably for him. She even asked him not to seek revenge against the family.
Eventually, he severed his emotional ties in pain and despair. This kind of agony is indescribable.
Even the position of Sect Hierarch that he now holds—years ago, his Hierarch forced him to truly forget all emotions, making him kill his own Hierarch, his mentor who was like a father and mother to him.
Killing a mentor, achieving heartlessness, being emotionless.
