In her previous life, Su Jin Xia was deceived and persecuted, dying miserably. Reborn, she not only seeks revenge and corrects injustices but also protects the one she loves.
However, when lo...
Time is of the essence; the Moonfire Grass only has one day and one night left.
Xia Lingyun immediately led Su Jin to a secluded courtyard and opened the door to the main house.
Su Jin stepped into the room, then turned to Xia Lingyun and said, "You don't need to come in."
Xia Lingyun was furious, but she decided to give up and didn't go in.
Shen Qianxue then stood at the door with Xia Lingyun.
"Phoenix Lord, what exactly do you want to do?" Xia Lingyun's eyes were full of doubt and vigilance.
Xia Lingyun wasn't afraid of Su Jinxia, believing that Su Jinxia alone couldn't cause any major trouble. What he feared was that Shen Qianxue was backing him up and had ulterior motives.
Shen Qianxue was truly wronged.
"Don't worry, Master Xia, our affairs will not be affected," Shen Qianxue replied affirmatively.
Xia Lingyun felt a little relieved.
Su Jinxia had already gone into the room.
The room was large, somewhat dark, and very quiet, as if no one lived there.
Su Jin continued walking inside, searching for Xia Tianhui.
Suddenly, a figure darted towards Su Jin at lightning speed.
Su Jin dodged aside, and an old man with gray hair appeared in front of her.
It must be Xia Tianhui.
Xia Tianhui bent slightly, assuming an attack stance. He was dressed in fine clothes, but his hair was disheveled, and his expression was ferocious, making him appear insane.
He attacked Su Jin again.
Su Jin continued to dodge, not fighting back, but observing Xia Tianhui's moves and internal strength.
To Su Jin's surprise, Xia Tianhui was actually using the Lone Shadow Technique.
"Are you Master Xia?" Su Jin tried to communicate with Xia Tianhui.
However, Xia Tianhui was like a mad dog, only capable of attacking.
Su Jin immediately flipped over and got up, tearing down the gauze curtain from the beam, turning it into a rope, and quickly tied Xia Tianhui up and threw him on the ground.
Xia Tianhui struggled and finally managed to speak.
"Let me go! Who are you? Let me go! I am the master of Xia Ke Manor, you bastard, let me go!"
Looking down at Xia Tianhui, Su Jin felt as if he had gone mad.
Could it be because of the Lone Shadow Technique?
But he still knew he was the master of Xia Ke Manor and was still conscious.
That makes things much easier!
Su Jin slowly stepped forward, her starry eyes narrowing and becoming long, revealing a fierce light and a strong killing intent, her tone chilling.
"Who am I? You don't know who I am? You killed me, you killed my whole family, and you still don't know who I am?"
Inside the room, a sudden gust of wind arose, causing utensils to fall and make a clanging sound, and the rolled-up curtains throughout the room danced wildly in the wind, as if ghosts had arrived.
Xia Tianhui's cloudy eyes revealed fear as he stared at Su Jinxia, watching her walk towards him step by step, clearly looking like she was there to take his life.
"Tell me! Who am I? If you don't tell me, I'll kill you!" Su Jinxia continued to approach.
Xia Tianhui shrank back in fear, retreating to the corner of the wall. He shook his head, trying hard to think.
"I'll kill your whole family! I'll kill your whole family! Yes! Yes! I'll kill your whole family! You Han brat, you heretic, you dare to challenge me! If I don't kill you, then my Xia Ke Manor will be the number one sect in the martial world!"
"Hahahaha...hahahaha..."
Xia Tianhui laughed wildly, feeling proud of himself for killing the entire Han family and overpowering the Lonely Shadow Society to become the number one sect in the martial arts world. This was the greatest and most glorious achievement of his life!
"If it's an unorthodox and heretical path, why do you cultivate it?"
Xia Tianhui was stunned, and said without much confidence, "I'm just trying it out, just trying it out."
Su Jin snorted coldly.
Cultivating the Lone Shadow Heart Technique requires abandoning one's original internal energy, which causes great damage. How could it be just a trial?
It is said that Xia Tianhui's martial arts skills were mediocre, and many masters had reservations about him, which is why he abdicated in favor of his son at an early age.
It seems he wanted to relearn the Lone Shadow Technique in order to achieve greater success.
They talk about crooked and evil methods while secretly practicing them—it's disgusting!
Su Jin strode forward, grabbed Xia Tianhui by the neck, and said sternly, "Not the Han family? Look at me carefully. I'm from which village? Don't you remember? More than a hundred people died overnight. I've come to find you. I want to avenge them!"
The stronger the wind blew inside, the more utensils clattered and smashed all over the floor. Xia Tianhui huddled up, becoming increasingly confused.
Outside, Xia Lingyun's eyes blazed with fury, wanting to rush in and stop Su Jin from continuing her interrogation.
Unexpectedly, Shen Qianxue grabbed his arm and stopped him.
The two were locked in a stalemate at the doorway.
Inside the room, Xia Tianhui's head was throbbing with pain. He twisted his withered body and muttered, "It wasn't me. You've got the wrong person. I didn't kill them. It was the Yuan family. They did it."
Suddenly, Xia Tianhui's eyes widened in terror. He seemed to realize he had said something he shouldn't have, and quickly shook his head. "No, no, no, it's the Lone Shadow Society! The disciples of the Lone Shadow Society went mad and committed the heinous act of massacring a village. They deserve to die, they deserve to die! I am righteous, I am acting on behalf of Heaven, the whole world is grateful to me! You can't kill me, you can't kill me!"
Yuan Family Gate?
Su Jin automatically ignored Xia Tianhui's second half of his sophistry.
The Yuan family was one of the sects involved in the extermination of the Lone Shadow Society, but shortly after the Lone Shadow Society was wiped out, they were also exterminated by their enemies.
"Did you also orchestrate the massacre of the Yuan family?" Su Jin lifted Xia Tianhui up and continued to interrogate him.
Xia Tianhui shook his head frantically, "No, no, it's not, it's not..."
He vehemently denied it, but at that moment his eyes showed a hint of clarity, behind which lay a guilty conscience.
"Do you know the consequences of lying?" Su Jin tightened her fingers.
Xia Tianhui, his tongue lolling out and struggling to breathe, immediately changed his story, "It was me, I did it! Only the dead can keep secrets! They know too much!"
