Tan Manxing looked at Tan Zhi, who looked like a wronged little rabbit, and walked over to hold her hand.
He looked at Zhou Yixuan with a warning in his eyes.
"Zhou Yixuan, do you have anything else to say now?"
All the evidence is right in front of him, what else can he argue about?
Zhou Yixuan knew that the situation was hopeless. He glanced at what Tan Manxing was holding and explained silently.
"Yes, I lied to you. Half of what I told you about my life when we first met was a lie."
"My parents were indeed murdered by someone, but it wasn't the Red-Faced Cult. On the contrary, I founded the Red-Faced Cult."
These words shocked everyone except Tan Manxing.
"The Red-Faced Faction isn't as dangerous as I said. They're pretty obscure. You can just swap out the characters I mentioned earlier."
"It was that so-called noble and upright hypocrite who brutally murdered my parents for the unique secret manual inherited from my family."
There was still deep pain in his eyes when he mentioned this matter.
He could have had a happy life but they ruined it.
Now he wants to destroy them, so what?
"I know you don't understand the underworld, so I lied to you so I could blend in with you."
Tong Leren was very confused when he heard this and couldn't help but interrupt.
"Then why did you join us? According to what you said, you just want revenge. We have nothing to do with this matter, right?"
Zhou Yixuan looked into Tan Zhi's clear eyes and continued to explain.
"At first I just wanted to investigate your purpose, but then I realized you might know what I'm looking for."
He knew that he had done a lot of wrong things, and facing the sincere people in front of him, he let go of the bottle in frustration.
"I don't want to kill you. This powder will just make you lose your strength."
Gudong——
The bottle rolled on the ground and landed at the feet of the boy.
He looked at Tan Zhi with red eyes, then looked at Tan Manxing whose eyes remained cold, and Zhou Yixuan who lowered his eyes and remained silent.
The lackey picked it up and handed it to Tan Manxing.
"Miss Tan."
Tan Manxing glanced at him with complicated eyes, took the bottle, opened it and fanned it against his nose.
After confirming that this was indeed the case, she looked at Zhou Yixuan.
"You are no longer worthy of my junior sister. Leave now."
She could, for the sake of Tan Zhi, not pursue what had happened in the past few days.
When Zhou Yixuan heard this, he suddenly looked up and smiled.
"Miss Tan, although I may have lied, you are definitely hiding something. I want to take this box away."
He paused and added.
"You all together can't beat me."
"Okay, okay, Zhou Yixuan, you're quite good at hiding your skills. It seems like I'm the only one here who doesn't know martial arts."
When Tong Le Ren heard this, he couldn't help but speak angrily.
Seeing that Tong Leren still had the mood to complain, Tan Manxing did not rush to take action.
"Zhou Yixuan, what do you want to take?"
The box contains neither a martial arts manual nor a priceless treasure. What does this thing have to do with his revenge?
Zhou Yixuan seemed to have given up something, and spoke without hiding anything.
"Over the years, I have secretly cultivated power and have almost dealt with those hypocritical sects, but the mastermind behind the scenes has not been found."
"The information I've uncovered indicates he's in cahoots with officials, and he was last seen ten years ago."
"I don't know what news leaked out of Xiangzhen recently. The man's men suddenly appeared here."
"After following him, I discovered that he was looking for something that could grant him immortality. This thing was in General Li's hands."
When Tan Manxing heard this, he clenched the thing in his hand.
"There's nothing here for you."
"impossible!"
He retorted in disbelief.
"I never lie."
She said this calmly and opened the box in front of everyone.
Lying quietly inside is a purple bead, which is rich in color and very beautiful.
But it is definitely clear that this thing cannot be eaten.
“How could it be…”
Zhou Yixuan stared at the bead, with a bitter look of disbelief in his eyes.
If the thing wasn't there, how could he lure the thief out?
The last hope was gone, and his already dim eyes darkened completely.
"Give me the stuff. I want to check it myself no matter what."
When he raised his eyes, there was no life left, only the obsession to fight to the death.
He would avenge the murder of his relatives no matter what.
Tan Manxing looked at Zhou Yixuan who showed murderous intent towards her and silently put the beads into the bag around her waist.
"Since you want it, let's compete."
She gripped her whip and assumed a fighting stance.
Looking at the situation, Tan Zhi raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, then shouted and walked out from behind Tan Manxing, standing between the two of them.
"I don't agree!"
"Senior Sister, you go first."
"Senior Sister, I beg you, you go first."
Tan Manxing looked at the pleading look in Tan Zhi's eyes, hesitated for a moment, gave Tong Leren a look, and was the first to leave through the secret passage behind him.
General Li should have considered that someone would come in the future, and the cemetery is not dangerous.
Tan Manxing listened to Tong Leren's footsteps and looked back.
Tan Zhi still maintained the same posture as before and stared at Zhou Yixuan.
She looked at Zhou Yixuan calmly, and their eyes met silently in the air.
"Miss Tan, aren't you worried about what he might do to Tan Zhi?"
Tong Leren asked, scratching his head.
"No, he likes Azhi."
She shook her head lightly. She did not miss the love in his eyes when he looked at Tan Zhi.
At least he wouldn't touch Tan Zhi even if he killed them.
Besides, this was Tan Zhi's decision. Although she was a senior sister, some decisions should be made by herself.
Of course, she was still worried about Tan Zhi's safety, so she turned a corner and quietly stopped at the back.
She wasn't sure what would happen over there, so she simply woke up Xiaobai on her wrist and let it go to the front to get some fresh air.
It was not until this moment that Tong Leren discovered that what he thought was a silver bracelet was actually a little white snake!!!
"Miss Tan, it's actually alive!"
"Um."
She looked at the surprised Tong Leren and nodded calmly.
Tong Leren suddenly felt bored seeing how calm she was, and whispered something before going to study the stone gate in front.
"I'll go research the exit."
Tan Manxing looked at his back and pursed her lips slightly. She didn't know why Tong Le Ren believed her.
And I am willing to help him like this.
But she couldn't deny that she liked his always smiling personality.
Perhaps because of her childhood experiences, she has a cold personality and doesn't like to laugh.
But only she knows how much she loves to see these warm and sunny smiles in her heart.
Therefore, she likes Tan Zhi, her junior sister who is always full of sunshine.
