Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1806 Water Dragon's Chant 10

Liu Yan was stubborn and a bit inflexible, and besides, he was inherently wicked. So when he saw Fang Zhou die at Tang Lizhi's hands through the window, and then have his heart crystal ripped out by Tang Lizhi, he was convinced that Tang Lizhi had killed Fang Zhou and refused to listen to any of Tang Lizhi's explanations. However, he didn't expect that Tang Lizhi's body possessed a very special healing ability. Years ago, he severed Tang Lizhi's heart meridian with a sword, but it still didn't kill Tang Lizhi, allowing him to survive until now.

Now, a stranger has suddenly appeared, and his words imply that he has been deceived. The person who deceived him is very likely the real murderer hiding behind the scenes who killed Fang Zhou. He only wants to confirm this fact from Jiang Xinxin, and he has no idea about his so-called persistence just a moment ago.

Liu Yan seemed to be going mad. He struggled desperately, disregarding his own body, trying to grab Jiang Xinxin and demand the truth: "Your Highness, what did you just say? Did I really see Tang Lizhi kill Fang Zhou, cut open his chest, and take his heart crystal? How could that be false?"

"Who is it? Who is behind this?!"

Jiang Xinxin slapped Liu Yan twice more, "I'm asking you a question, and you actually ask me?"

After saying that, Jiang Xinxin looked at Tang Lizhi, who was also very excited, and said, "Of course, these are all my guesses based on the current situation, but you two are both smart people, just with slight flaws in your personalities. I believe you can understand that what I said is not unfounded, right?"

Tang Lizhi realized at this point that Jiang Xinxin would definitely not give him any face, so he could only nod.

Jiang Xinxin was finally satisfied. "When Fang Zhou was on the verge of death, Tang Lizhi, you were right in front of him. Tell me, why did Fang Zhou have this accident?"

Tang Lizhi dared not hide anything at this moment and said, "That day, when I returned to Zhou Dilou from my travels, I saw Fang Zhou in great pain. I naturally rushed forward to check on him. Who knew that Fang Zhou was actually poisoned by Gu poison? At that time, the Gu poison was very severe. I relied on my own constitution to try to absorb all the Gu poison in Fang Zhou's body into my own body so as to detoxify him."

"But none of us expected that Ah Yan would return at the crucial moment. And he actually thought I was the culprit who caused Fang Zhou's suffering, so he attacked me directly. Even though I was trying to do two things at once, I still failed and couldn't save Fang Zhou. I could only take Fang Zhou's heart crystal and nurture it in my body for the future..."

Liu Yan simply didn't believe Tang Lizhi's words and questioned, "You said Fang Zhou was poisoned by Gu and was on the verge of death. At that time, you didn't want to kill him but wanted to save him. But you even took Fang Zhou's heart crystal. Is there any way to bring someone back to life in this world?!"

"You really are a heartless, ungrateful wretch! Fang Zhou put so much effort into you, but it was all for nothing!"

However, Tang Licheng noticed that Jiang Xinxin seemed to believe him, so he couldn't help but ask her, "Your Highness, why aren't you surprised when you heard that I wanted to resurrect Fang Zhou?"

Jiang Xinxin casually made up an excuse: "My sect's inheritance is said to be martial arts, but after I entered the martial world, I realized that the kung fu I practiced was not ordinary martial arts. Therefore, in my opinion, since you say that your physique is different and you have a way to nurture Fang Zhou's heart crystal in your own body, you must indeed have a way to revive Fang Zhou."

Although Liu Yan did not believe Tang Lici's words, after witnessing Jiang Xinxin's methods, she couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope. "Your Highness, can Fang Zhou really return to the world?"

Jiang Xinxin nodded, not intending to deceive Liu Yan, "Think about it, if Tang Lizhi really killed Fang Zhou heartlessly, why would she take Fang Zhou's heart crystal at the critical moment and use her own body to nurture it?"

"Since he did it, he must have some ability, and he must have already considered the whole picture."

"However, the matter of being resurrected from the dead is too extraordinary and even seems bizarre. I'm afraid that having the means alone is not enough. The most important thing is actually Fang Zhou's own luck."

"In my opinion, it's not a big deal that you two brothers have become enemies, but the entanglement between you two has implicated too many innocent people, and it has probably already dragged Fang Zhou into it."

Now, not only Liu Yan was filled with regret, but even Tang Lizhi was filled with remorse. He had only wanted to persuade Liu Yan to turn over a new leaf, and he felt guilty towards Liu Yan for concealing the possibility of Fang Zhou's resurrection...

Now things are really messed up. Liu Yan's actions in seeking revenge against Fang Zhou for his death have probably not only implicated him, but also affected Fang Zhou!

The two were filled with regret and grief, but Jiang Xinxin sneered inwardly. She also felt a little sorry for Fang Zhou, because just now, she sensed that most of the divine soul he had gathered in the Heart Crystal had disappeared.

Tang Lizhi was more rational than Liu Yan, and besides, Jiang Xinxin's presence was too strong. He quickly sorted things out and asked Liu Yan, "Yan, I can't give up hope now. No matter how small the hope is, I want to try my best. Are you willing to help me?"

Liu Yan never imagined that he might be the culprit who harmed Fang Zhou. He couldn't accept this. Tang Li Ci's invitation came at just the right time. However, while Liu Yan agreed to put aside his past grievances with Tang Li Ci and work together to revive Fang Zhou, Jiang Xin Xin was unwilling to see Liu Yan still alive and kicking after harming so many people and stirring up so much conflict.

Jiang Xinxin slapped Liu Yan twice more and asked, "Have you forgotten what you did? Did I give you permission?"

Tang Lizhi continued to speak up for Liu Yan: "Your Highness, A Yan is not a bad person by nature. As you know, everything about the Nine Hearts Pill of the Ghost was not A Yan's intention. Please give A Yan a chance to forgive her."

Jiang Xinxin took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone and placed them in front of Liu Yan, then released him. "Write down your crimes one by one!"

"For example, the origin of the Nine Hearts of the Gorilla, the people you organized and how many you distributed, the forces and individuals you contacted, and the evil deeds you committed—write it all down in detail for me!"

Liu Yan wrote for the entire day, only stopping when the sun was setting. If it weren't for the supplies in Jiang Xinxin's cave, there probably wouldn't have been enough paper for him.

Tang Lizhi looked at the nearly two-foot-thick stack of papers beside him and felt that things had gotten out of his control. However, he still wanted to plead for Liu Yan, at least he wanted Liu Yan to do his part in reviving Fang Zhou and not leave this world with regrets.

Jiang Xinxin disagreed at all: "He is indeed somewhat pitiful, but aren't those innocent people who died tragically because of his selfishness pitiful too? Not to mention those from the distant past, just take your close friend Feng Chuanxiang from Jiangcheng whom you met recently. Has he done anything evil? Why should he have to lose his life because of Liu Yan's scheme?"

Jiang Xinxin argued vehemently: "Besides, you suspect me of killing someone by attacking their spirit, but how do you know I'm not doing this for Fang Zhou's benefit?"
