"Xiao Ning, don't think you're the only one with extraordinary talent, I'm not bad either!"
Xue Lian straightened his body and met Xiao Ning's gaze without flinching. His tone was firm as iron, with an unquestionable confidence.
Xiao Ning was so shocked by Xue Lian's sudden words that he was speechless for a long time. He stared blankly at the familiar yet strange person in front of him, his heart full of doubts and confusion. Every word Xue Lian said just now kept echoing in his mind, and his thoughts were tangled like a tangled mess.
"Impossible! How could Sister Rouxue lie to me? You said you didn't kill anyone, how could you..."
Xiao Ning finally came to his senses and yelled at Xue Lian in a rage. However, just as he was about to say "How is it possible", he suddenly stopped as if he was cast under a spell.
Because at this moment, a memory came to his mind - he remembered his time with Xue Lian. Thinking back carefully, he had never seen Xue Lian kill anyone with his own hands. Even though Xue Lian had persuaded Ye Ziqing to deal with others before, it was Ye Ziqing who actually did it, and Xue Lian was at best just fanning the flames behind the scenes.
Thinking of Nangong Luoyu, she once brutally massacred more than a hundred people in Tianjian Villa! Even Xiao Ning himself had his hands stained with blood.
If what Xue Lian said was true, and the people he killed were all extremely evil and unrepentant, and he was not so crazy as to use the lives of innocent mortals as sacrifices to improve his own cultivation, then perhaps he was not as despicable and shameless as Rong Rouxue said.
At this time, Xue Lian stared at Xiao Ning, who was already at a loss for words, and said softly with a slightly slower tone: "In fact, as you guessed, I was indeed secretly behind the affairs of Ye Ziqing and Nangong Luoyu. But how can all this be blamed on me? Even without my intervention, Ye Ziqing would still regard you as his mortal enemy and raise the butcher knife in his hand against you."
"As for Nangong Luoyu, even if I had not given her the magic book, she would still be abandoned by your father, and then she would abduct you, which would eventually lead to a tragic tragedy. Similarly, even if I did not exist, the actions of the demons were destined to happen. It was only a matter of time."
Xiao Ning listened to Xue Lian's words silently, and his previous opinion was shaken. Could it be that he really misunderstood him? However, the moment this thought just emerged, he immediately denied it without hesitation and responded solemnly:
"Don't try to flatter me! No matter what, your actions have caused many bad consequences. How can you easily shirk responsibility? Even so, just because you attacked my mother, I will not let you go!"
After hearing this, Xue Lian couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter echoed all around, as if to break through the depressing atmosphere.
"Hahahahahaha... I don't expect to get your forgiveness. My only wish is to bring Jiang Yinli back to life. As for what you and everyone in the world think of me, I don't care at all!"
Xiao Ning stared at the man in front of him solemnly, his thoughts surging like a tide. Time passed by, and after a long and difficult thought, he finally spoke:
"Okay! As long as you stop wantonly slaughtering innocent people and promise not to harm my family, I am willing to help you with resurrecting Jiang Yinli!"
Xiao Ning's words were powerful and contained a kind of unquestionable strength. In fact, he was helpless at the moment, because he was not sure whether Xue Lian's words were true or not. However, he was very clear about one thing. If he chose to escape from this place with Bai Ziyun, the chance of success would be very small, and it was even very likely that they would be trapped in a desperate situation.
Hearing Xiao Ning's agreement, Xue Lian smiled with satisfaction and nodded his head in approval. Then, he flicked his wrist, and a small and exquisite porcelain bottle flew towards Xiao Ning like lightning.
Xiao Ning was quick-witted and reached out to catch the porcelain bottle. He could not wait to open the bottle cap and took a closer look. He saw a bright red, round and smooth pill lying quietly at the bottom of the bottle. It was the Huaqing Fuling Pill!
Xiao Ning widened his eyes, raised his head in disbelief, and stared at Xue Lian.
Xue Lian smiled and said softly, "Don't be suspicious. Only when you recover to your best condition can you help me better. Don't worry, I haven't tampered with this pill."
After Xiao Ning finished listening, he stared at the pill in his hand that was emitting a strange light, and swallowed it without any hesitation. At the moment when the pill slid down his throat, it was like a clear spring turning into a warm torrent, quickly sweeping over his whole body.
At first, Xiao Ning didn't feel anything unusual in his body, and even thought that this pill might not work. However, at this moment, something strange happened!
He first felt a burning sensation on his skin, which gradually intensified, like a burning flame. Then, a strange feeling of growth came over him like a tide, from bones to internal organs, to every inch of flesh and blood, all of which seemed to have life, constantly extending and expanding.
In just a moment, Xiao Ning could no longer hold on and fell to the ground. The sudden pain was like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart, making him unable to bear it at all.
He rolled on the ground involuntarily, screaming miserably. Xue Lian, who was standing by, saw Xiao Ning in such pain, and a subtle ripple flashed in his eyes.
