Chapter 82 So Lin Fan must die, there is some love in it

"Yeah, it's all my fault."

"If I had hesitated a little when I was in Jingyang City, I would have chosen to believe him, listened to him a little more, and not stabbed him with the sword."

"Perhaps he will not lose all hope, nor will he fall into depravity and fall into the mortal world forever..."

"If I had understood it earlier, faced my fear and terror earlier, understood the truth earlier, everything would still be in time."

"But I was afraid, I retreated, I was terrified, I didn't dare to face the truth that I had already guessed."

"I appear brilliant and dazzling in front of others, but in fact I am just a timid and cowardly coward..."

"I have never felt sorry for anyone in my life, but I just felt sorry for him."

The woman laughed at herself.

She gently touched her heart and felt waves of pain coming from it, as if she was pierced by countless sharp thorns, the pain was so severe that she seemed to be suffocating.

Many memories of past lives flashed by like flowing water.

Finally, the picture freezes on the young man in white who is covering his chest, slowly falling to the ground in the courtyard, and looking at the sky with his eyes open.

Those eyes were dead and empty, yet peaceful, as if they were just letting their life and energy fade away, like a body without a mind.

During the great catastrophe of her inner demon, she stretched out her hand, trembling, trying to cover the bleeding wound, but the boy never looked at her again.

It was not until that moment, with tears welling up in her eyes and blurring her vision, that she realized that the fate of everything in the world had actually been determined in the past.

Even if she could become an immortal, even if she could find the cicada of time, she still could not change anything.

"From now on, we are no longer connected, the spring mountains are as dark as ink and the grass is as white as smoke..."

The woman was in a daze, sighed with regret, and all the thoughts in her mind disappeared.

After a long time, she finally seemed to calm down.

She stood up and walked slowly outside the hall, looking into the distance.

This is an island surrounded by clouds and mist, located in the mountains overseas.

Looking from the sky, the ocean is calm, without wind or waves, deep blue, dotted with stars and scattered with many small islands of various sizes.

The island in the middle, with its steaming mist and lush ancient trees, looks like a primitive ancient forest. It is particularly majestic, like the moon surrounded by stars.

Occasionally, there would be some ferocious and strange birds flying across the horizon and disappearing into various areas of the island.

The Island of No Return, as its name suggests, is an island area located offshore of Kyushu and is shrouded in fog all year round.

It is said that once the creatures and monks come here, it will be impossible to leave, because they will get lost on the way and cannot find their way home.

After she stabbed the target with the sword in Jingyang City, she was afraid that her adoptive parents would notice something was wrong and rush back, so she did not dare to stay for long and left in a hurry.

But she was sure that although the sword was slightly off target due to the trembling of her hand, it did pierce his heart from beginning to end.

The blood, stained with fairy charm, was extremely dazzling. It spurted all over the courtyard and even dyed her clothes red.

She fled from the Prime Minister's Mansion in a trance, and immediately ran away into the distance, thinking that this would anger the Prime Minister's Mansion and that they would send countless experts to hunt her down.

But the days that followed were calm, no one talked about the incident, and no one came after me.

It seemed that no one knew about the accidental assassination of the son of the Prime Minister.

She also didn't know what the final outcome would be.

She had no idea whether Jiang Lan was alive or dead.

Since then, she left Kyushu and went overseas.

Although they encountered some accidents and dangers on the way to the sea and were caught in endless fog, they finally landed safely on the Island of No Return.

Although her immortal heart was dug out, after her rebirth, she relied on her belief in revenge and her strength and talent far exceeded her before. Even those old monsters who had practiced for many years and had profound Taoism were no match for her.

It was for this reason that she lived in seclusion on the Island of No Return and occupied a separate island. She was honored as the Great Island Master by foreign monks who mistakenly entered this place.

There are rumors that beyond the endless fog overseas, there are three islands of no return. In the middle of one of them, there is a hidden strong man with great strength and artistic ability, like a true immortal on earth...

These are the respect and admiration that outsiders have for her.

Her strength was indeed as outsiders said. After only ten years, she reached the ninth level of Yuhua Realm and was invincible in the world.

Twenty years later was the last time she was born again, left the Island of No Return, and walked the world.

The land of Kyushu is full of twists and turns and the situation is turbulent.

Zhongtianzhou is ruled by the Great Xia Dynasty, while the remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult are lurking in secret, ready to make a move.

Nanhuang, Beihai, Dongyuan and Xiling were also not peaceful.

The Taoist sects from outside the realm intend to arrive and seize the dragon energy of Jiuzhou, open up the ancient road and connect it to the rest of the world.

She had no intention of interfering in the affairs of Kyushu. She still harbored hatred and only wanted to destroy the Prime Minister's Mansion and everything that had ever been related to him.

But I never thought that after I set foot in the Great Xia Dynasty, I would learn that he had already died...

She was so paranoid that she flew into a rage and broke into the Xiangguo Mansion Mausoleum, where she dug up Jiang Lan's grave. Unfortunately, even the body was incomplete, with only a few bones and clothes left.

She was so angry that she destroyed it with one palm, leaving no bones behind, and turned it all into powder.

Then, amid the shouts and angry gazes of his adoptive parents, he laughed loudly a few times and walked away.

How could he be killed by someone else if he didn't die by his own sword?

It would be too easy for him to die like this.

He clearly vowed to marry me when he grew up, but why did he break his promise and go back on his word? Was it because he was a mortal and I had a heart of an immortal?

But if he really wanted my immortal heart, how could I not give it to him?

But he said nothing, and even deceived and betrayed me, betraying my trust in him.

The woman sighed softly. She indeed had such thoughts and ideas at that time.

That night many years ago at the Xiangguo Mansion, he promised himself that after their training was finished, they would sneak out of the Xiangguo Mansion and go to a place only they knew to catch fireflies in the clear night.

So, he finished his training early, and in order to get rid of the annoying little tail that always liked to follow them, he slipped out of the Prime Minister's Mansion alone and waited for him at the agreed place.

The night was deep and everything was silent. She sat on the edge of the field, propped up her head, and looked boredly at the fireflies fluttering up there. She wondered why he was so slow to come. If he didn't come, what would be the point of enjoying the scenery alone?

She heard footsteps in the distance. She stood up happily and turned around to see a gleaming arrow whizzing towards her...

When she woke up again, she was already in a simple and dilapidated blue brick and tile house.

An old woman who was hard of hearing and collected herbs saved her in the mountains.

According to the old woman, it rained heavily that night, the wind was blowing hard, there were thunders on the mountain, and lightning flashed one after another, illuminating the dark sky, as if God was angry.

She thought the gods were punishing her and was terrified, but she also had a vague idea that something big might have happened in the mountains.

So, facing the heavy rain, we went deep into the mountains, and under a tree that was struck by lightning and caught fire, we saw bloodstains washed out by the heavy rain. It was strange to say, although the rain was heavy, the fire caused by the tree had never been extinguished, illuminating the area.

The old woman dug under the tree for a long time and finally found her who was buried deep inside. However, she was covered in blood at that time, and when she was picked up, she was as light as a feather.

What's even stranger is that there aren't any injuries on her body. It looks more like her injuries have healed...

Only she knew at that time that her heart was gone. It was incredible that she could still survive without a heart.

As for where her heart went, that goes without saying.

From that moment on, hatred, anger, grievance, pain, coldness... all the emotions overwhelmed her. She vowed to take revenge. She wanted to make Jiang Lan suffer unbearably and make him pay a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times the price.

It was the hatred at that time that supported her throughout the last weak and painful years, until she finally achieved nirvana and was reborn from the ashes.

It was not until Jiang Lan's actual death that she had no way to vent the anger and hatred in her heart and fell into a state of confusion.

She gradually realized that something was wrong, but at that time, she no longer had the courage to pursue the truth of the past. Although she had a vague suspicion in her heart, she did not dare to face it and chose to retreat...

She was trapped in an obsession from which she could not extricate herself, and her stubbornness seemed to have led her into a dead end from which she could not escape.

What finally overwhelmed her, causing all her persistence and stubbornness to collapse and drive her into madness, was the little tail she looked down upon in the past, who said with mockery, "You really don't deserve him."

When she came to her senses, Li Mengning had already resolutely gone to seek revenge on the enemy who killed Jiang Lan. After being defeated, she committed suicide without hesitation.

…

"In the previous life, I didn't know that Lin Fan was a man of great fortune. I gave him a lot of time to grow. It took a lot of effort to kill him later."

"But it will be easy for me to kill him again in this life."

The woman withdrew all her thoughts, her heart ached slightly again, and she gently waved her slender white hand.

A piece of veil fell from not far away and was worn by her on her face, covering her fairy-like face, while her eyes became even more indifferent.

As she walked lightly, the bronze palace in front of her seemed to tremble slightly.

Then ripples spread, and a dark void crack appeared. She stepped into it and disappeared in an instant.

Since the Time Cicada has lost its function and she can no longer go back to the past, there is no need for her to force herself to change her past destiny.

She didn't know what she should do in this life, or how to face him, but she understood that blindly escaping and being timid would only lead to repeating the mistakes of her previous life.

And the most important thing for her right now is to kill Lin Fan.

…

Anyang City.

City Lord's Mansion.

This is a magnificent and sprawling mansion with buildings in clusters. Inside, pavilions and palaces are lined up one after another, and the scene is magnificent with clouds and mist rising up.

A white jade chariot landed steadily, and the servant standing in front of the mansion hurried forward to lift the curtain for it.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

However, the woman driving the chariot waved her hand, signaling them to step back, and said respectfully to one of them, "Master, we have returned to the Anyang City Lord's Mansion."

Chu Chan, who was meditating, came to her senses when she heard this. Was it so fast? She felt that only a short time had passed. The journey was smooth without any setbacks.

It’s good to have a relationship with the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Even when entering Anyang City, you don’t have to encounter any inspection.

The guards in front of the city gate came forward in person to let her pass, not daring to delay her at all.

Chu Yun, who was following behind the chariot, leading a green ox, now vaguely understood and comprehended his sister's thoughts.

During this period, the news that True Lord Zixia's cave was going to be unveiled spread far and wide. Anyang City was extremely lively, with people everywhere. It was really crowded.

Outside every city gate, there are long queues waiting to be inspected every day.

As a result, when they arrived, the guards outside the city gate immediately made way for them when they saw the flag of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and did not dare to ask any more questions.

Chu Yun was still a young man after all. Looking at those cultivators and creatures looking at him with envy and jealous eyes, he couldn't help feeling a little proud and complacent.

The guards in front of the city lord's mansion gate saw Chu Yun leading a green ox, but they did not dare to look down on him at all. They stepped forward to take the green ox from his hands and take it to the stable.

Chu Yun hesitated for a moment but did not refuse. Even Da Huang assured him, so he naturally had nothing to worry about.

"Come on, Xiaoyun. Follow me to see the Master."

Chu Chan spoke from the front.

She lifted her skirt and stepped down from the sedan chair with the help of several maids. Her posture was decent and elegant, unlike the casual and natural manner she had shown outside Zixia Temple before.

Chu Yun responded, lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and did not look at the City Lord's Mansion carefully.

Although he had a poor brain before, he had lived in Anyang City during his childhood.

There has always been a vague fear and yearning for the City Lord's Mansion, because it is the center of power in Anyang City.

Among them, the city lord can decide the rise and fall and survival of many families with just one decree.

"Miss Chu Chan, Master Jiang has already ordered people to prepare the banquet." The housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion came over personally and led the way.

Chu Chan smiled politely and said, "Thank you, butler, for leading the way."

Deep inside the City Lord's Mansion, in a quiet courtyard, the jade table was already filled with delicacies.

"Young Master..."

When Chu Chan came over, Jiang Lan was holding up the wine glass and sipping it by himself.

Su Qinghan didn't want to meet Chu Chan, so he didn't come.

Jiang Lan naturally didn't care about these.

He did not tell Su Qinghan about the token of Master Zixia, and Su Qinghan himself was not very interested in Master Zixia's inheritance. Apart from practicing dual cultivation with him, he spent the rest of his time practicing diligently.

"Chan'er is back?"

Jiang Lan put down his wine glass, smiled slightly, and motioned her to come over.

Chu Chan did not avoid him either. She followed Chu Yun behind her, slightly lifted her skirt, and sat in his arms. She wrapped her snow-white arms around his neck and rested her head on his chest.

From a distance, Chu Yun saw the young nobleman in white clothes with wide sleeves.

Just as he had guessed, his every move revealed an air of dignity and respect, and he was handsome and elegant, and women liked him very much at first sight.

And seeing his sister sitting in his arms like that, he couldn't help but face twitching. He quickly lowered his eyebrows and pretended not to see it, but a sour feeling still arose in his heart.

He clenched and unclenched his fists under his robe several times before he calmed down.

"You just came back and you're already so annoying." Jiang Lan smiled, patted Chu Chan's back gently, and motioned her to sit down.

"I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so much that I wish I could grow a pair of wings and fly back to you."

"Sir, please let Chan'er hold you for a while longer..."

Chu Chan's beautiful eyes were sparkling, her red lips pressed against his neck, and she spoke in a sticky voice.

Jiang Lan ignored her and looked at Chu Yun. He was a little surprised, but he still asked calmly with a smile on his face, "Is this your brother Chu Yun, Chan'er? He is indeed a young hero with a handsome appearance."

In the original plot, Chu Yun was persecuted by his fellow disciples in Zixia Temple, and his body was thrown off a cliff.

When Chu Chan found him later, he had already turned into a pile of dry bones.

But now Chu Yun is alive and well. Not only is he not dead, but he seems to have become more mentally alert.

In the dark, many things have indeed changed.

Jiang Lan had previously speculated that after Chu Chan accidentally sent the jade pendant token to Chu Yun, it might cause unexpected changes.

"Xiao Yun, what are you doing standing there? Come and greet the Master."

"This is the Young Master Jiang I mentioned to you." Chu Chan looked at Chu Yun and said.

Chu Yun reacted and immediately stepped forward and said, "Chu Yun greets Mr. Jiang."

"Sir, Xiaoyun is a child whose brain has just recovered and she hasn't seen the world. I hope you can forgive me if I am impolite." Chu Chan said.

"It's okay. Since he is your brother, I will naturally treat him like my own brother." Jiang Lan smiled, but felt strange in his heart.

While he was looking at Chu Yun, he was also exploring his fate.

As he expected, this was a person with great luck, commonly known as the son of luck, surrounded by purple fortune.

By judging his fate, Jiang Lan was able to conclude that Chu Yun should have been recognized by Zixia Zhenjun's mount and became the true successor of Zixia Zhenjun.

In the original plot, Lin Fan did not get the recognition of the mount, which believed that Lin Fan obtained the jade pendant by trickery and was not a descendant of the Chu family.

"But I remember you said, Chan'er, that Chu Yun had some problems with his brain? I also sent a message to my father, asking him to find a doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau, but now it seems that Chu Yun is fine..." Jiang Lan asked.

Since Chu Yun is a man of great luck and is Chu Chan's younger brother, as long as he can be used by her and provide her with luck, that would naturally be great.

But Chu Yun, as the son of luck, may not be so easy to subdue.

Chu Chan was moved and simply recounted what happened to Chu Yun, but she did not hide the fact that Chu Yun was persecuted by his fellow disciples in Zixia Temple.

"It seems like this is really a blessing in disguise. However, the abbot of Zixia Temple is indeed too much to allow his disciples to harm their fellow disciples."

"Don't worry, Chan'er. I will definitely seek justice for your brother."

After hearing this, Jiang Lan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of anger seemed to appear on his face.

Chu Chan hurriedly said, "Young Master, there is no need to get angry over this little thing. Chan'er has already told Xiaoyun to seek revenge and justice for himself after he has the strength to cultivate. He should not rely too much on others."

"Chan'er is right. If you rely too much on external things, it will not be good for your own practice."

Jiang Lan felt a little relieved after hearing this and nodded slightly.

Chu Yun, who was standing by, was stunned. He did not expect that Jiang Lan would care so much about his sister and consider him so much.

It seems that what my sister said before was not false.

He felt even more bitter and sad, yet also somewhat indescribably relieved.

Jiang Lan, the second-generation rich man, had a very bad reputation. On the way here, he had worried that the other party was playing with his sister, and when he got tired of her, he would throw her aside.

But judging from the current situation, it seems that... there is some affection involved. No wonder my sister is so intimate.
