Chapter 724 The Truth! Cutting himself, piece by piece [1 update]
Changshan had been a member of the Sword Knights for over thirty years and served as their deputy commander for twenty-five years, so he was naturally very familiar with the insignia of the order.
The four knightly orders correspond to the Minor Arcana in the Tarot deck.
The Knight of Swords leader corresponds to the King of Swords card.
All other knights under his command must obey his orders and must not disobey in any way.
Changshan's expression changed instantly, and his body trembled violently.
He stared intently at the longsword insignia, then suddenly let out a heart-wrenching scream: "Commander...you're the commander?!"
How could the newly appointed leader of the Sword Knights be a mere greenhorn who has just arrived in the City of the World?
After Fu Yunshen followed Yu Shaoyun into the Yu family, Changshan retrieved his information, including that from China.
The president of a conglomerate, the seventh young master of the Fu family.
Born into wealth, where did he get such superb skills?
Changshan was drenched in cold sweat, his entire body was soaked, and his head was buzzing: "It's over..."
The conditions for using the memory retrieval gun are very strict.
The limited number of users who could read the data made this invention a useless invention that was neither useful nor worth discarding.
One of the conditions is that it must be done until the person being read has a mental breakdown.
Conversely, those with strong willpower cannot have their memories read.
Therefore, the memory reader is completely ineffective against someone as naturally cautious as Zhu Sha.
The human brain is too complex; even with today's advanced technology, it is still impossible to fully understand it.
Fu Yunshen toyed with the small silver gun, a smile playing on his lips: "I'll fire a shot at you, and if I see any useful memory fragments, I'll slash you. How about that?"
"No!" Changshan's face turned deathly pale as he shook his head desperately. "I don't want my memories read! No!"
He was also well aware of the stringent conditions required for using the memory-reading gun.
But the identity Fu Yunshen revealed was too much of a shock to him, and he was completely unable to suppress his breakdown.
Fu Yunshen didn't give Changshan a chance to struggle at all. He grabbed Changshan's shoulder with one hand and pulled the trigger with the other.
"Bang!"
A flash of white light, and Changshan fainted once again.
"Let me try," Qin Lingyan said happily, taking the memory-reading gun. "I've never played with this thing before."
He connected the memory-access gun to the computer, his fingers flying across the keyboard, and quickly brought up the video.
Ying Zijing stood next to Fu Yunshen and watched with him.
The timing of Yu Shaoyun's siege is very clear; we can directly adjust the timeline to that year.
The video clearly shows a valley, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, with a gentle breeze.
The valley was a scene of bloodshed.
This valley is also a resort area, far from the city center, so it would take some time to get help.
Blood was everywhere, and the ground was littered with corpses.
The image is taken from a top-down perspective.
This proves that Changshan was present when Yu Shaoyun was besieged more than 20 years ago.
But as the footage was broadcast, Fu Yunshen quickly discovered a blind spot: "The one attacking them wasn't him, it was his mother."
Those attackers were clearly targeting Fu Liuying, but they were constantly blocked by Yu Shaoyun.
Changshan and the others saw Fu Liuying as worthless and naturally assumed that the target was Yu Shaoyun.
Fu Liuying grew up in the Fu family and was always a well-bred young lady. She was skilled in perfumery, but she was indeed much less skilled in combat.
"Wait." Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes and pointed with her finger. "Here, turn thirty-five degrees to the right and zoom in."
Qin Lingyan immediately did as instructed and began adjusting the resolution.
On the right wrist of the assassin in black, there was a clear black skull symbol.
Fu Yunshen raised his head slightly, his eyes icy cold: "It really was them."
The video is still playing.
Another group of people approached Yu Shaoyun and Fu Liuying.
However, this second group of people, though also dressed in black, were sword-wielding knights dispatched by Changshan.
The black skeleton forces were very powerful. Yu Shaoyun held on to his last breath and killed the last man in black before falling into a coma.
Before he lost consciousness, he witnessed the swordsman deliberately forcing Fu Liuying away.
Similarly, this scene was also witnessed by the Yu family's guards.
It effectively created the illusion that Fu Liuying had betrayed Yu Shaoyun.
Little do people know that what people perceive as the truth is often the most deceptive lie.
For the residents of the City of the World, the Sword Knights are undoubtedly more credible than Fu Liuying.
Fu Yunshen's fingers tightened little by little, his eyes filled with coldness and ferocity.
If it weren't for the second group of people brought by Changshan, Fu Liuying could have left the resort valley with Yu Shaoyun.
If time hadn't been wasted, Yu Shaoyun wouldn't have even reached the point of brain death.
The tragedy occurred at this time.
There was no going back.
“My guess is correct.” Fu Yunshen’s peach blossom eyes narrowed. “The siblings only want the Yu family, while the Black Skull faction wants Mom’s life.”
However, it must be said that cinnabar was far too cautious.
Among the memories extracted from Changshan, there was not a single thing that involved her.
Even in Changshan's memory, she was always gentle and kind, showing no sign of malice.
Half an hour later, Changshan finally woke up slowly.
When I recalled what had happened before, I saw those long-forgotten images on the big screen again.
His fear was overwhelming, and he screamed hysterically, "Fu Yunshen!"
It's over, it's completely over!
The truth of what happened back then has somehow come to light.
Changshan never imagined that the secret would be exposed one day.
After all, no one dared to use the memory-reading gun on him, and no one dared to touch him.
What do we do now?
The Sword Knight Commander has the power of life and death over the Deputy Commander and ordinary knights.
Changshan's teeth chattered, and his previous haughty attitude suddenly became humble: "Young Master Fu, your mother's matter has nothing to do with me. I don't even know that group of people!"
“Yes, I believe you don’t know them.” Fu Yunshen smiled. “But that’s my mother.”
Changshan's expression gradually turned to despair.
How could Fu Liuying have such a gifted descendant?
Changshan shuddered: "Young Master Fu, if you want revenge, go find those people. They are the real culprits!"
Fu Yunshen remained silent.
He looked nonchalant, and his movements were careless.
They cut Changshan's body, one cut at a time.
Like sculpting a work of art, every movement is extremely elegant.
Screams erupted one after another.
"Heh, you want to kill me! Even if you kill me, the Yu family won't be yours." Changshan spat out blood, gritting his teeth. "With Sha'er around, you'll die sooner or later!"
He believed in Zhu Sha's wisdom and abilities.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to manipulate the entire Yu family and Fu Liuying so easily.
"Don't worry." Fu Yunshen bent down, took the back of the knife, and patted his face repeatedly. "Your sister will be going down to join you soon. She will be in court. Death will be a luxury for her."
Changshan's eyes widened, but he suddenly calmed down.
He spat out another mouthful of blood and sneered, "You can't possibly deal with Sha'er. Without evidence, you can forget about sending her to court!"
No one can prove that Zhu Sha was involved in this matter except herself.
Moreover, as the former leader of the Holy Grail Knights, Zhu Sha had many admirers.
Killing her would only incite public outrage.
Changshan's confidence grew stronger: "Moreover, Sha'er is Shao Ying's mother. Just based on that, I'm telling you, the Yu family would never do anything to her."
“You still don’t understand that he’s never relied on anyone else.” Ying Zijing slowly leaned down, her phoenix eyes icy cold. “You deserve to die.”
With a forceful movement, she dislocated Changshan's jaw and casually slipped a pill into it.
Changshan let out another scream: "You, you're not that..."
He also watched the test flight ceremony held by the Academy of Engineering.
Ying Zijing is extremely beautiful; everyone who sees her will remember her.
How come this dark horse genius from the Academy of Engineering is also closely related to Fu Yun?!
The next second, an even more intense pain surged up.
Changshan rolled on the ground, screaming in agony.
His body was a bloody mess, and not a single piece of flesh could be found intact.
Qin Lingyan covered her ears.
Of all people to offend, why did he have to offend Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin?
These two worked together so well; one killed the man, and the other handed him the knife.
“It’s dirty.” Fu Yunshen raised his hand and covered the girl’s eyes. “Don’t look, let’s go outside.”
"You all go out, I'll keep an eye on things." Qin Lingyan said with great interest, "Let me take another look."
Fu Yun glanced at him and left.
The door was closed completely.
Outside, the sky was a clear, cloudless blue, and the sun shone brightly.
It was as if darkness did not exist.
Silence fell.
“Before, when life was tiring, I didn’t know how to keep going.” Fu Yunshen leaned against the wall, tilting his head slightly back. “I would take out my mother’s photo and look at it.”
He opened his arms.
In his palm was a rusty pocket watch, clearly quite old.
The photo on the right is of Fu Liuying.
Very young.
She also had a pair of captivating peach blossom eyes, with clear pupils and a charming smile.
Fate was too cruel, denying this beautiful and charming woman the chance to grow old.
“I always heard my grandfather say that the navel is where you are connected to your mother.” He rested his head on his right hand and chuckled softly. “She went through hell to give birth to me, how could I give up my life so easily?”
Ying Zijin's gaze sharpened.
She raised her hand and placed it on his: "I'm here."
Fu Yunshen's eyelashes fluttered, his eyes gentle: "I know."
An hour later, the door was opened again.
Qin Lingyan came out: "She's out of breath. Sigh, I haven't had enough fun yet."
"Is it all cleaned up?"
"Clean, not a single hair was left."
Fu Yunshen gave a faint "hmm".
"Old Fu, will the Sages cause you trouble now that he's dead?" Qin Lingyan asked with some worry. "We can't really fight the Sages' Academy head-on right now."
"Don't worry, the sages don't have that much time," Fu Yunshen said. "To them, the knight team is just a dispensable tool."
Ying Zijing raised an eyebrow and slowly replied, "If I had known, I wouldn't have taken the job."
"Hmm." Fu Yunshen rubbed her head and smiled, "It's not that you shouldn't treat it, just treat it as fun for a couple of days."
Qin Lingyan: "???"
Is this the life of a big shot that he can't understand?
Fu Yunshen glanced at the time: "We're going to the hospital in a bit."
**
This way.
The Jade Family.
When Shaoyun returned home from the training ground at noon, he saw Old Madam Yu chatting with a young couple, smiling broadly.
He frowned, but still called out, "Mom."
"Shaoyun, you're back." Old Madam Yu was very happy. "This is Young Master Lingyu, and this is Miss Ruo."
The brother and sister stood up and bowed to Shaoyun, saying, "Head of the family."
"Young Master Ling Yu is Administrator 006 of W Network," Old Madam Yu exclaimed. "He is truly a promising young man."
Ling Yu replied modestly, "Madam, you flatter me. I merely inherited my father's account."
"Not at all, family background is very important." Madam Yu smiled. "Shaoyun, Miss Ningruo is twenty-three years old this year and is not yet married. What do you think?"
Shao Yun gave the head guard a look, signaling him to ask the two to leave.
Then he looked at Old Madam Yu: "Mom, what are you planning to do now?"
"What are you doing?" Old Madam Yu's smile vanished, her face instantly falling into a sneer. "Sha'er and I went to great lengths to choose a noble lady for your illegitimate son, and you're still not happy?"
Without even thinking, Shao Yun sneered, "Impossible."
He had seen the girl next to Fu Yunshen many times.
With a divine appearance and unparalleled elegance, she possessed extraordinary grace.
Even if Fu Yunshen has no one he loves, he will not allow him to enter into a marriage alliance.
Some tragedies only need to happen once.
"I've made my point here." Old Madam Yu slammed down her cup and said calmly, "Since he is a member of the Yu family, he needs to do his best for the development of the family."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for using the same methods I used on you on him."
Do you really think that once you join the Yu family, you can have freedom of marriage?
