"Why?" Guan Yueyue asked Qingyu, sobbing, "Junior brother, why did you help her?"
Guan Yueyue was known as the Fairy of Medicine and Poison. She believed that few in the world could match her skill in poisoning. She could quickly detect ordinary methods of administering medicine. The only thing that could make her lower her guard was the medicine Qingyu gave her to treat her heart ailment. She quickly realized that Qingyu had mixed other sleeping potions into the medicine. She also understood why Qingyu had been pestering her and not allowing her to leave the valley since the wedding banquet.
Faced with Guan Yueyue's accusations, Qingyu did not answer; his expression was unusually cold.
Feng Guang laughed and said, "You don't need to blame Qingyu. Qingyu did nothing wrong. Tell me, what's wrong with avenging your dead relatives?"
Guan Yueyue's eyes widened in disbelief. "Qingyu...you...you knew everything?"
"Senior Sister," Qingyu looked at her coldly, "you knew all along that Yi Wushang was Nangong Li, didn't you?"
“I…” Guan Yueyue didn’t know how to answer. She knew that Nangong Li had many lives on his hands. She also thought that as long as Qingyu never knew that Yi Wushang was Nangong Li, everything could develop in a good direction.
Qingyu's desire for revenge was not wrong, but her mistake was that she shouldn't have met Nangong Li. However... she didn't regret it.
Guan Yueyue sobbed, "Qingyu, I'm so sorry."
Qingyu remained silent.
Feng Guang said gently, "The Wen family has seventy-one lives, my Zhejianlou has one hundred and thirty-four lives, plus your Guan family's sixty-one lives. Yueyue, tell me, isn't it too easy for your beloved to only die once?"
"Xia Fengguang!" Nangong Li, who was already weakening, suddenly called out her name as a warning when he heard her writing a passage.
Feng Guang laughed and said, "Why are you so agitated? These are things you've already done, why are you afraid of letting people know?"
"You mean... sixty-one lives of my Guan family?" Guan Yueyue asked, stunned.
"Yes, the reason you became an orphan is because Nangong Li slaughtered your entire family."
“Nangong Li…” Guan Yueyue asked blankly, “Is what she said true?”
A metallic taste rose in Nangong Li's throat again. Looking at Guan Yueyue like this, he could neither deny nor admit it. The veins on his forehead bulged, and he was suppressing something.
Guan Yueyue suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart. She had transmigrated here and didn't have any real feelings for those so-called family members. But once the name "family" was attached to them, her conscience wouldn't allow her to treat it as a complete fabrication.
Unlike Guan Yueyue's sorrow, Feng Guang laughed heartily, "Nangong Li is the leader of the Demonic Sect, so it's only natural that he would kill people. What's so strange about that?"
Nangong Li was not afraid of death or pain; his only fear was that Guan Yueyue would leave him. He said weakly, "Yueyue, listen to me... I have my reasons. Fifteen years ago, the sect leader was my master. He ordered the massacre of the Guan family. I... I had no choice..."
He was always full of vigor, but at this moment, he even used the most humble tone.
Feng Guang shook his head with a tsk tsk, "Your master gave the order, but you were the executioner, weren't you? Yueyue, think about it, back then it was Nangong Li who took the knife and stabbed your biological parents. How do you feel about that?"
She emphasized the words "biological parents" in particular, and Guan Yueyue's eyes dimmed instantly.
"Xia Fengguang, shut up!" Nangong Li struggled to his feet. "You think I killed the people from Zhejianlou, so you want revenge? Have you ever thought about why I slaughtered the people from Zhejianlou in the first place?"
Yes, with the Zhejianlou (Broken Sword Pavilion) around, it can provide him with great convenience as Yi Wushang in the righteous path of the martial arts world. Why would he suddenly want to kill all the people in the Zhejianlou?
