"What a pity, there is still one person from the Du family alive,"

Ling Yuan's heart skipped a beat and she raised her head abruptly: "Are you trying to seek revenge on him?"

"Did I tell you that I want revenge?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something. She looked towards Ling Yuan involuntarily and suddenly smiled.

"Speaking of which, you seem to be particularly concerned about the Wei family's affairs. Why? From the tone of your voice, do you know who I want to seek revenge on? And you are worried that I will go after him? Do you know him?"

"Haha, you are such a joker, how could I know him? It was just a conditioned reflex after hearing him."

"Besides, who you want to seek revenge on is your business. It seems to have nothing to do with me, right? If you really want to go, can I stop you?"

Meng Ling gave her a deep look, obviously not believing her words, "Haha, a conditioned reflex? You still dare to say you don't know him? If you really don't know him, how could you have such a reaction? Would strangers have such a reflex?"

Ling Yuan's eyes darkened. "Why? Miss Meng, are you trying to get to the bottom of this?"

Meng Ling sneered, "As far as I know, among the families implicated by the Du family, I and this Du family member are not the only survivors. In other words, under Wei Yuchen's cruel means, there are more than just the two of us who survived."

Ling Yuan paused, "So? What do you want to express?"

"If we really wanted him dead, do you think he would be alive now? Could it be that I am the only one who hates him, and no one else?"

"After all, the number of families that were implicated by the Du family back then was at least 20, if not 30. This number may seem small, but if you put them together, it would be terrifying!"

Ling Yuan pursed her lips, raised her eyes and glanced at her quickly, then lowered her eyes without saying anything.

Meng Ling didn't take it seriously. "But it's a pity. I only found out that these survivors belong to the Purple Phoenix Palace and are managed by the leader of the Shamen. But the leader of this Shamen is so elusive that I don't know him. I wonder if Miss Feng knows him?"

Ling Yuan frowned slightly, obviously not expecting that she would shift her attention to the Zihuang Palace.

Zihuang Palace, my godfather’s Zihuang Palace?

The leader of the Sha Sect, could it be... Shangguan Qingxi?

When this woman was mentioned, Ling Yuan frowned unconsciously. Although Wei Jie had explained her origins to her, Ling Yuan still couldn't like her. As for why, even she herself couldn't tell. She frowned and snorted in displeasure.

"I didn't invite you here to discuss these people who have nothing to do with me. Meng Ling, shouldn't you explain why you suddenly appeared near my Fengchi Villa after severing ties with me for so many years? What do you want to do?"

"Haha, you were the one who started this. What? Now you say you want to end it, so it has to end?"

"So what do you want?"

"I wonder if Miss Feng is interested in continuing to cooperate with me?"

Ling Yuan raised her eyebrows. "Miss Meng, do you think that I will still need your help like I did four years ago? After all, it doesn't seem as difficult to find out the news of the Dragon Empire as it was a few years ago."

Of course Meng Ling knew that the Dragon Empire no longer had as many restrictions as before in its treatment of survivors on the four continents. As long as you were not infected, you would receive unified arrangements from the Dragon Empire. Although you could not move around freely in the Dragon Empire, you would still be given proper arrangements.

Who could have made it so that the person who brought such disaster to the Four Continents was none other than his own son, Long Haotian?

Even if Long Haotian disliked the Sifang Continent, he had no reason to abandon the people of the Sifang Continent. It was because of his special favor that the people of the Sifang Continent were able to settle down in a city near the Dragon Empire.

Of course, those who can enter that city must either be highly skilled in martial arts or have a certain status and position. Otherwise, they will become a delicious meal for those zombies before they even get there.

"Then you must be curious, why am I here?"

Ling Yuan raised her eyebrows calmly, "Yes, I am curious. Not only am I curious about this, but I am also curious about how you became Long Kun's man and how you placed Long Kun's last hope on Wei Yuchen. I am very curious about all these, but..."

"But what? If you have any needs, just let me know. As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely satisfy you. But the prerequisite is that you have to cooperate with me."

Ling Yuan laughed, "But I don't have the same conditions to exchange with you?"

When Meng Ling heard this, she immediately said to her, "No, you have a condition, the prescription. If you give me the antidote prescription, I can tell you everything you want to know."

Ling Yuan curled her lips in disapproval, "Then how can I prove that what you told me is true?"

Meng Ling was not vague and immediately said, "Ms. Feng, you and I have worked together for so many years. Don't we know each other well enough? You doubt me, so should I also doubt your prescription?"

Meng Ling originally wanted to retort her, but she didn't expect that Ling Yuan raised her chin confidently after hearing this.

"Whether my recipe is genuine or not, you don't need to decide for yourself. Just ask someone to try it and you can find out. But yours is hard to say. We had a pleasant cooperation back then, and I am confident in your character."

"But even so, isn't it over just like that? After four or five years of separation, how can you expect me to believe that you are still the same Miss Meng?"

"Besides, you broke up with me without explaining why, so how can I trust you and continue to cooperate with you?"

Ling Yuan's words made Meng Ling fall silent for a moment. Fortunately, she was not in a hurry and just glanced at her calmly.

For the first time ever, the two of them fell into silence for a quarter of an hour because of the past.

Just when Ling Yuan thought that this woman was going to let the matter go, she unexpectedly broke the silence and looked at her indifferently.

"First of all, I am very grateful to you for not mentioning words like 'rebellion' or 'betrayal' to me after we met again. Instead, you chose the word 'unclear' to summarize it."

"Besides, I'm very curious, how did you know that I was Miss Meng? And after we met, you came to see me openly with your current identity. Aren't you afraid that I will betray you again?"

Ling Yuan couldn't help but smile when she met her serious and cautious gaze.

"To be honest, you may not have betrayed me back then. You just cut off all contact with us. Although I don't know how much you know about me, I think you must know a lot."

"But after so many years, Fengchi Villa has not been disturbed by any external forces. Just for this reason, I have to toast you!"

"As for why you appeared here and how I recognized you, I naturally have my own channels."

"And the reason why I invited you here so openly to meet you is because you did not do anything excessive to my Fengchi Villa back then."

Meng Ling thought of countless possibilities, but she never thought that this girl would use the word "trust" to block her next words.

For a moment, the two people sat opposite each other, feeling mixed emotions and feeling uncomfortable.

"If I tell you that it's not that I haven't thought about exposing you, but that I don't even know who your alias is, would you believe it?"

Ling Yuan chuckled and shook her head slightly, "I don't believe it. With your influence in the Dragon Empire, even if we used pseudonyms at the beginning, we can still feel some unusual clues from those materials."

"Even if you can't be sure, your presence here has already proved your guess, don't you think?"

Meng Ling let out a breath of turbid air with a hint of regret, "As expected of Ling Yuan, she actually reacted so quickly."

Ling Yuan's beautiful eyes narrowed instantly because of her words, "Ling Yuan?"

"You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me, girl. There are not so many coincidences in the world. The eldest lady of Fengchi Villa was able to stop the initial virus at the Four-Party Festival, and the Phoenix Princess Ling Yuan of Fengwang Mansion also stopped the zombie poison in the Never-Sleeping City not long after. And these two people are of similar age."

"But their morphological features are very different!" Ling Yuan pointed out the biggest difference between them bluntly.

After hearing this, Meng Ling stroked her chin and nodded thoughtfully.

"That's right. This has always been something that I can't figure out. Whenever I bring the two of you together, I'm stuck on this question."

"But you have to know that the same road has countless forks in the road. If every road can lead to here, it means that I didn't go wrong. But if I didn't go wrong, why can't it lead here?"

“People tend to look for reasons in the external environment, but ignore the fact that things themselves are actually full of impossibilities. What I want to do is to turn the impossible into the possible, and the possible into the certain.”

Meng Ling's profound reasoning deeply impressed Ling Yuan, "So, how did you get out of this dead end?"

After hearing this, Meng Ling couldn't help but laugh, "What's so difficult about this? Who are you, Ling Yuan? Who is Feng Yan? They are both masters of medicine and poison. If they want to change their bodies and control their figures at will, isn't that easy?"

Ling Yuan had been expecting this for quite some time, and had never expected that she would end up with this answer. However, she couldn't say that this explanation was wrong. After all, she had actually used drugs to change the bodies of Feng Yan and Ling Yuan several times back then.

Fortunately, the face on her face was Feng Yan's, and she only suspected the relationship between Feng Yan and Ling Yuan, and did not associate Ling Yuan with other aspects again. Especially, it was Ling Yuan four years later. I am afraid that no one except Wei Jie could recognize her.

"Even so, wasn't Ling Yuan dead four years ago?"

"But you are still alive, Ling Yuan is still alive, and you are standing in front of me alive and well, aren't you?"

"reason!"

Meng Ling's lips curled up slightly, and she said coldly, "Do you even need to ask? The person who killed the zombie poison in the cradle the first two times was you, Ling Yuan. Over the years, no one has ever developed a method or medicine to fight against the zombie poison. Even though we have the most powerful alchemist, we have not succeeded."

"But suddenly, the poison was cured, and it came from your Fengchi Villa. I can't think of anyone else except you. Besides, you died so miserably back then, and now you're back alive. It doesn't seem strange, right?"

Ling Yuan:……

I guessed countless answers, but I never thought that the method she used was the simplest process of elimination?

Haha, I really don’t know whether I am happy or in tears.

"So you think that no one except Ling Yuan can resist this poison?"

"I'm afraid you don't know yet? The antibody drugs you developed in the City That Never Sleeps really work. Ordinary people would develop diseases within an hour after being bitten by zombies, but those who took your drugs could survive for three days."

Ling Yuan raised her eyebrows. Three days? She really didn't know that.

"The zombie poison has undergone several changes over the years and has become more dangerous than before. Not only has its mutation speed increased, but even the zombies' agility has been improved again and again. It's so fast that they don't even have time to study it."

"But no matter how hard they research, they still can't reach the strength of Ling Yuan and Feng Yan when they were ten or eleven years old. Tell me, besides you, Ling Yuan, who else can figure out the antidote?"

Ling Yuan looked back at her and rolled his eyes at her teasingly, "So? Should I admit that I am Ling Yuan?"

"No, whether you admit it or not, you are Ling Yuan and Ling Yuan is Feng Yuan. This is an established fact. Look, don't both of their names have the character 'yuan' in them?"

"Haha, that's what you think. If I don't admit it, what can you do to me? Besides, Ling Yuan is dead, and the only one alive is me... Feng Yuan!"

"I'm afraid... it's too late,"

Ling Yuan's eyes turned cold, "What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing, I just want to warn you that you have been targeted. Unfortunately, the other party knows that you are Ling Yuan, that you are an expert in poison, that you have extraordinary medical skills, and everything about your past."

"This person is extremely cruel and has regarded you as a thorn in his side. He can't wait to get rid of you!"

Meng Ling's words made Ling Yuan's eyes darken instantly, "Is it you?"

"Haha, if you say so, it's not wrong. The other party targeted you because of me. However, if you want to talk about the source, you have to trace it back to Hong Xie. After all, if Hong Xie and Long Kun hadn't always mentioned you, how could she have kept you in mind?"

There were so many ambiguous things in Meng Ling's words that Ling Yuan felt that his brain was not enough. After mixing them into a paste, he turned his head blankly.

"What do you mean? Are you following this person now? Is he the person directly responsible for the destruction of the Never-Sleeping City?"

Meng Ling just smiled and said nothing, "A tall tree attracts the wind, especially since this person is Hong Xie's closest relative. Tell me, how could she let you go?"

The most important thing is that the devil deeply loves Long Kun, and Long Kun’s death, unfortunately, is closely related to Ling Yuan. If she is remembered by that man, I am afraid that her future days will not be easy.

However, compared to Ling Yuan, her ending seems... not much better, right?

"Can you give me the prescription?" She has revealed so much, is this enough?

Ling Yuan glanced at her coldly, with a scornful smile on his lips.

"Prescription? Meng Ling, Meng Ling, do you think I will give you the prescription after you tell me all this? Now that you are in the same group with Hong Xie and Long Kun, do you think I will be stupid enough to tell you the prescription and wait for you to research new poisons and then destroy the world?"

Meng Ling's face instantly turned the color of liver. "Little girl, you actually went back on your word?"

"Haha, I never promised you to give you a prescription. As for what I said just now, you told me on your own initiative. I didn't put a knife to your neck and force you to say it."

"You, how much have I helped you secretly over the years? Is this how you repay me?"

"I am grateful that you helped Feng Chi, but I absolutely cannot allow you to betray me personally."

"I am afraid of owing others. Here, to express your gratitude for Fengchi Villa, here is the antidote for the poison in your body. Take the antidote, and we will have no relationship from now on."

Meng Ling's body shook slightly, and her face instantly turned pale. "You're just going to let me leave like this?"

"Do you want to stay and have a cup of tea before leaving?" Ling Yuan stood up suddenly and looked down at her. "Don't think I don't know why you are here."
