Su Qian's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
No wonder... No wonder when she saw him in a wheelchair in the restaurant last time, she felt that his eyes were familiar, but she couldn't remember who he looked like.
"You are surprised, right? Surprised as to why I have become like this, and why I am in Shangjing."
"Yeah?"
Su Qian was surprised at first, but she was no longer surprised after he revealed his identity.
Now it is very clear that Yan Xuanye sent people to torture him until he was neither human nor ghost. Then he somehow sneaked out and came to Shangjing City just to seek revenge on her.
No...someone must be helping him.
He was injured, and when he arrived in Shangjing he was still sitting in a wheelchair, which shows that his leg must have been seriously injured.
Even if he is not disabled, he is lame.
How could a cripple come to Shangjing alone?
There must be someone helping him behind the scenes.
Su Qian thought about it and concluded that there was only one person, Jiang Xuewei.
Wasn't she the boss behind Hong Ziweng?
"Jiang Xuewei brought you here, didn't she? She was the one who sent you last time at Zhuming Pavilion, wasn't she?"
Hong Ziweng laughed angrily and said, "So what if you knew?"
"It's a pity you'll be dead soon."
Su Qian sat up straight under his gaze and confronted him, "Everything started because Jiang Xuewei sent you here. She was the one who harmed you, so why are you trying to kill me?"
"Don't you think you're a little ridiculous?"
"If she hadn't sent you to Mingxiang Pavilion to use you to destroy my innocence, how could you have become like this, neither human nor ghost?"
"She treated you as a pawn. You've already been fooled once. Do you want to be fooled again?"
Su Qian was stalling for time, thinking about how to let Lu Huan know her situation so that he would come and rescue her.
Hong Ziweng seemed to have been brainwashed. He could only see her, and he only hated her in his heart. "No matter what you say today, it's not up to you."
Su Qian continued to stall for time: "If you kill me, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive! If Lu Huan knew, he would definitely avenge me!"
"And Yan Xuanye... He attacked Qingzhou for me. If he knew I died at your hands, what would he do to you? I'm sure you know this yourself."
Hong Ziweng sneered and said, "Do you think Lu Huan can come alive to save you?"
Su Qian was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Hong Ziweng: "I'm afraid he has already been burned to death by now, hahahahahaha."
His laughter was extremely wild. Su Qian looked at the world outside through the window and smelled a strong burnt smell.
She asked Xiang Hong Ziweng in disbelief, "What did you do to him?"
She roared, "If you have any complaints, come to me! Why drag others down with you!?"
Su Qian's chest was heaving with anger. She had already felt sorry for Yan Xuanye. These days, she often dreamed of him being injured on the battlefield or being chased by someone. She felt very guilty.
Unexpectedly, Lu Huan would be implicated again.
Hong Ziweng's left hand caressed her delicate cheek, his movements gentle, but his expression fierce and ruthless. "You care about so many people, but... you've implicated the two people who love you. You must feel guilty."
Both of them... were implicated by you?
Did something really happen to Yan Xuanye?
Su Qian: "Speak clearly! What did you do to them?"
Hong Ziweng: "As for Lu Huan, I don't think he'll survive... We set fire to his ancestral temple. You know how much he values his mother."
"To save his mother's tablet, he rushed into the fire alone..." Hong Ziweng grinned. "Do you know how big that fire was? Come... I'll take you to the window and take a look."
After that, he grabbed Su Qian's hair and limped to the window, "Look at the fire... Look for yourself, do you think he can still get out alive?"
The smoke billowed and spread in all directions. Su Qian looked from afar and saw only red.
She couldn't believe that Lu Huan actually entered the fire scene alone. In such a fire, even if he survived by chance, would he be safe and sound?
Hong Ziweng was still laughing at her stupidity. "In this situation, you still want to wait for him to save you? He can't even save himself. Tell me... how can he save you?"
Su Qian did not respond to him because she saw Zi Tan crawling forward not far from the window. Her shoulder was covered in blood and flesh, making it difficult to look directly at her.
Based on her interactions with Zitan over the past few days, her eyes told Su Qian, don't move!
Hong Ziweng beside her continued to chatter away, expressing his resentment. Su Qian straightened her body, not daring to move...
Zi Tan was originally holding on with all his might, but later collapsed due to exhaustion. Now... he is at the end of his strength.
She took one last look at the fire in the eastern ancestral hall, and spat out two streams of black blood, flowing straight out of her mouth...
Zitan, with a mouthful of black blood in his mouth, spoke his last words in a blurry and intermittent voice, "Master... Zitan... I will come again in my next life... to repay your kindness."
After she finished speaking, she used all her strength to throw away the dagger that had cut her flesh before.
Hong Ziweng was so agitated that his body heaved violently. The dagger that was supposed to have stabbed him straight in the heart only grazed his cheek...
Although it was not a fatal wound, Zitan felt relieved when he saw the poisoned dagger scratch his skin and blood gushing from the wound.
