No one knows when it began—
But the world was split in two.
Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.
Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...
Ning Fan has returned to Jinfeng City.
Along the way, he didn't communicate much with Li Tiandao.
Li Tiandao certainly didn't want to say too much to Ning Fan. He knew Ning Fan was smart, and he was also worried that some of his words might expose his plan.
The same goes for Ning Fan.
Since Ning Fan had already guessed Li Tiandao's thoughts, what he had to do now was to make Li Tiandao think that he had not discovered it.
At the same time, Ning Fan also knew that what he was facing now might be the most difficult trouble he had ever encountered.
Everything he did would be seen by Li Tiandao.
In other words, it would be very difficult for him to take action without telling the other party!
This is an enemy so internal that it cannot be contained within.
He is also extremely smart and can control him to a certain extent.
It's difficult!
This is a much greater threat than the Diancheng.
Fortunately, Ning Fan has already thought of a solution, but it will take some time to think about how to implement it.
…
Top city.
A woman was squatting on the ground in her yard.
In front of me is a field of bright red flowers.
One of them withered away for unknown reasons.
The woman was tilting her head, checking the condition of the roots.
If Ning Fan saw this woman, even if he had experienced countless storms, he would definitely be so excited that he would be speechless.
This is his mother, Fang Yan.
Even though Ning Fan felt that this might not be his real biological mother, the mother-son relationship they had shared for more than ten years could not be fake.
He could also truly feel Fang Yan's love for him.
At this time, Fang Yan was wearing a pure white dress. Although she was a bit older, after returning to Shangcheng these years, her spirit and energy were obviously much better than before.
Just as she was trying to figure out why the flower withered, the yard door was pushed open.
Fang Yan knew who came in without even looking up.
The person who came in was a middle-aged man who was not much different from her age.
The man first glanced at Fang Yan who was fiddling with flowers and plants, then walked unceremoniously to the rocking chair beside him and sat down.
"Ling Mo's patience is almost exhausted."
The man said as he swayed, "His current body is almost at its limit."
Fang Yan pinched off the withered flower.
"It's too late to save her."
The man frowned slightly: "Are you talking about flowers or people?"
"It's all the same."
Fang Yan slowly stood up and threw the withered flower in her hand into the trash can beside her: "The nutrients of this flower have been taken away by other flowers. There is no chance of saving it."
"Where's that person?"
The man asked.
Fang Yan finally looked at him.
"People, too."
The man frowned even more fiercely.
He stopped shaking and said with some dissatisfaction: "You are also a member of the Li family. You know very well that we don't have the opportunity to make mistakes again. If we lose our usefulness, Ling Mo will kill us all, including you!"
"Isn't our last name Fang?"
Fang Yan whispered, "Didn't our ancestral teachings say we can't use the surname 'Li' anymore?"
"you……"
The man stood up angrily and said, "If it weren't for you, how could we be so passive?"
"oh."
Fang Yan smiled and said, "Should I go tell Ling Mo that if it weren't for me, he would have died long ago? Or, in other words, if it weren't for me, Diancheng might not have existed long ago."
Bang!!
A slap hit Fang Yan's face hard.
Before she could respond, the man grabbed her neck and pressed her against the courtyard wall.
"Fang Yan! Your family has been very kind to you, right?"
The man's face was grim. "You caused such a big disaster back then. We haven't done anything to you since we brought you back from the lower city, right?!"
The man pointed at the courtyard and the ornately decorated building.
"We didn't care about the mistakes you made, and we continued to provide you with a life of luxury!"
"You've lived in that filthy downtown for so long, you should know that the life we live now is something those cockroaches and rats wouldn't even dare to imagine in their lifetime!"
"And after returning from that disgusting place, not only did you not make any contribution to the family, but you are even here gloating over their misfortune!"
"Fang Yan, I have a question for you!"
"Is the blood flowing in your body still that of the Li family?!"
Fang Yan's face turned red because her neck was strangled.
However, even though the feeling of suffocation made her unable to speak, she still looked at the man in front of her with a playful look.
Even, with a bit of morbid madness.
Bang!!
The man punched the wall next to Fang Yan's face, breaking it.
He was very angry.
But his only remaining rationality did not make him take more extreme actions.
“Cough cough cough!”
The man let go of her hand, and Fang Yan immediately squatted on the ground and started coughing violently.
The pinch marks on her neck were clearly visible.
Just now, the man almost broke her neck.
"I'll only give you three days for Ling Mo's matter."
The man looked down at Fang Yan: "His new body may not be perfect, but it must at least be able to withstand his power temporarily."
Fang Yan coughed for a while, then slowly raised her head: "If I don't agree..."
Having said this, she suddenly paused.
The resistance in his eyes turned into doubt.
"Why temporarily?"
