Rescue people from the devil
While several of Luosha's disciples were imprisoned, Chao Rirou was also cleared of suspicion as a criminal.
With Yue Lanxiu around, Chao Rirou felt safe and secure in the prison. Although it was a prison, the food was good and all she liked! Someone must have been taking special care of her.
Chao Rirou knew that Yue Lanxiu must have the ability to save her, but she didn't expect it to be so soon!
Asahirou thought she would be able to see him after she was released from prison, but it has been almost five days since she was released from prison, and there is still no sign of him.
She asked his good friend Xu Rongxuan, but Xu Rongxuan said he was also looking for him!
Sakura also asked around, but to no avail!
It seemed like he had deliberately hidden his whereabouts! Asahirou wondered if he had encountered something dangerous again, and didn't want to implicate others, so he planned to take risks alone again! Asahirou was furious, angry that he always treated himself like a god, thinking he could solve any problem! Little did he know that being overconfident is conceited, and conceit is foolishness, and sooner or later you will suffer a great loss! Don't try to be a god, but accidentally become a ghost!
Bah! Bah! Why was she cursing him? Even if she was angry, it was only because she was worried about him!
After much thought, Chao Rirou decided to find Xu Rongxuan to see if this guy was hiding anything!
Xu Rongxuan was called to Baixiang's place by Zhao Rirou. He knew she was looking for him to ask about Xiu again! Since he had promised Xiu not to tell anyone, he would never reveal a single word even if he was beaten to death!
Xu Rongxuan was sitting on a chair, surrounded by three women. They were interrogating him like a criminal, but he kept his mouth shut. Suddenly, the situation changed!
"Stop saying you know nothing! That expression of yours that says I know everything but won't tell you has betrayed you. If you don't tell me where Yue Lanxiu went, I will commit suicide in front of you!" Chao Rirou took out a dagger and made a gesture of slitting her neck.
"Don't, don't get excited! This is not in line with your style!" Xu Rongxuan tried to dissuade him hastily. Is his acting so bad?
Asahirou took a step back, and with her hands she exerted so much force on her neck that red blood began to flow out. Her tough attitude showed that she was not just talking casually.
Xu Rongxuan's face turned pale with fear. He didn't dare to approach easily, fearing that this stubborn bull would really bleed on the spot! He racked his brains to think about what to do. It's not that he didn't want to say it. In fact, he was also looking for Xiu and was very worried about him. He just didn't know where Xiu had gone! He only knew that he had gone to find Yan Mingchi to save Shui Wulian!
And he didn't say it for their own good! He didn't want them to be in danger!
"If one life isn't enough to make you tell the truth, then add mine!" April Ying had a dagger in her hand and put it against her neck. Blood soon seeped out of her neck, and it was obvious that she was not joking.
Xu Rongxuan was so anxious that cold sweats broke out. He would rather they tortured him than threaten him with death! He really had no other choice!
"And me." Thyme also took out a dagger, but before it touched her neck, Xu Rongxuan knocked it away.
"I surrender! I surrender! I'm really scared of you!" He was really defeated by these three women who didn't play by the rules!
Thyme looked at the excited Xu Rongxuan and thought that if he knew that this was ketchup, he would probably faint from anger!
Xu Rongxuan said helplessly, "He met Shui Wulian!"
Asahirou was unexpectedly stunned for a moment, and then her expression was a little cold, a little angry, a little worried, and a little heavy.
He's at Shui Wulian's? She was so worried about him, but it turns out he went to his ex's place without saying a word!
As soon as that woman showed up, you ignored her, right?
However, Shui Wulian finally showed up and stopped pretending to be dead! How would she explain her actions to Yue Lanxiu? How would she confuse him?
And what about Yue Lanxiu? Will he still trust her? Will he be deceived by her? Will his old feelings for his former lover rekindle?
If he stood on Shui Wulian's side, then she and he would be enemies!
April Sakura and Thyme noticed Asahirou's mood and said nothing.
"But Shui Wulian was captured by Yan Mingchi again! So he was busy rescuing people again! But I really don't know where he went to rescue people! Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you now!" At this point, Xu Rongxuan's face was full of worry.
Zhao Rirou's heart trembled with uneasiness, "Yan Mingchi?"
April Ying frowned seriously, "Rakshasa is pretending to be Yan Mingchi again?" Or... it must not be what she thinks now!
"Xiu said it was the real Yan Mingchi!" Xu Rongxuan shook his head with a worried look on his face.
Asahiro was stunned and a little frightened.
Did the real Yan Mingchi appear?
Is Yue Lanxiu going to rescue someone from Yan Mingchi? Is he going to fight Yan Mingchi?
The thing she feared the most and least wanted to happen happened!
Her first reaction was to stop Yue Lanxiu from going to his death! But how could she stop him?
Going to Yan Mingchi?
"What should we do?" Siyueying looked at Zhao Rirou, at a loss for words. It was a dilemma to help, and it was a dilemma not to help! They really wanted to help Yue Lanxiu, and even if they couldn't, they would do their best! But Shui Wulian, the woman who had been framing Zhao Rirou, honestly, it would be best if Yan Mingchi killed her!
"I'm sorry I can't help you with this! Shui Wulian has tried to kill me many times. If I save her again, will she come and kill me again?" Chao Rirou had an indifferent face to hide her inner unrest.
After saying that, he walked out of the room, exuding a strong aura of indifference.
But he had other plans in mind, unknown to others.
"Because you are an expert, you have to live on a high mountain, right? Aren't you afraid of lack of oxygen?" Yue Lanxiu couldn't help rolling his eyes as he looked at the mountain in front of him, which was high but not up to the clouds, and low but it would take half a day to climb.
As he expected, Yan Mingchi would contact him on his own initiative.
The day after Shui Wulian was kidnapped, Yan Mingchi gave him an address. However, he didn't go there immediately. He had to do some homework before rescuing her. After all, he wasn't dealing with a human being! To call Yan Mingchi a human being always feels like an underestimation of him!
The address Yan Mingchi gave him requires climbing over this mountain! He and Luosha are indeed from the same sect; they both like to build their nests in the mountains! But Yan Mingchi is clearly even more outrageous. What kind of mountain is he looking for? There are no steps at all, it's incredibly steep! Although there are iron chains for handholds and raised rocks for stepping, without the ability to scale walls and climb roofs, I really don't dare to try! So he's not human!
I should have gotten a helicopter instead of a car! No, no, no! Even a helicopter can't do this in this damn place!
He sighed and had to climb the rock obediently. He just hoped that Yan Mingchi would not play a trick on him. His claim of living on the rock was fake, but he really wanted to make him fall to his death!
By constantly greeting Yan Mingchi's ancestors, Yue Lanxiu finally reached the summit. He didn't count how long it took, but he knew he had arrived early in the morning, and the sun was already in the west!
Damn it… The cursing suddenly stopped, and Yue Lanxiu was distracted by the scenery under his feet.
Who could have imagined that one side of the mountain was bare and covered in weeds, while the other was dotted with vibrant red flowers, green trees, springs, waterfalls, pavilions, and a breathtaking beauty! Standing halfway up the mountain was a palace-like building, the epitome of luxury!
Yan Mingchi said he would wait for him in the peach blossom forest, so he should go to a place full of peach trees!
He's clearly a wanted criminal, yet he acts like a hermit! People who don't know him would think he's an immortal!
Fortunately, there are steps on this side of the mountain, otherwise he would have been killed by Yan Mingchi, but would have died from exhaustion from climbing the mountain! Or fallen to his death!
He slowly walked down the steps with admiring eyes, only to discover a winding path leading to a secluded place, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers... He thought this was probably what the paradise in the book was like! Someone who should have spent the rest of his life in prison was living a life like a god! What was wrong with this society?
He heard the sound of a guqin, and he raised his eyebrows, wondering if Yan Mingchi was afraid he wouldn't be able to find the way, or was he urging him to hurry? In short, his every move was under the eyes of that devil!
The sound of the piano was getting closer and closer, and from a distance, Yan Mingchi could be seen sitting in the pavilion playing the piano. Yue Lanxiu couldn't help but whistle, he was quite talented!
Indeed, just by looking at him, you can tell that he is not an ordinary person. He exudes an aura of supremacy over all the world! It's a pity that there is no emperor in this era. Even if he were an emperor, he couldn't kill anyone he wanted!
The music stopped, and Yan Mingchi's voice rang out, "Why doesn't your master want to see me?"
Even his tone of voice was filled with the air of an emperor! Although he sounded as childish as he looked, Yue Lanxiu was extremely curious. Could he disguise himself as a young man in his twenties and sound so lifelike?
Yue Lanxiu approached him slowly, his pace leisurely and relaxed, one of the few people who wasn't afraid of him. "To tell you the truth, I don't even know where my master is! He's always so mysterious and elusive! But when he needs to find me, he'll show up!"
"Then what are you doing here? To see how your lover died!" Yan Mingchi's face was expressionless, but deep in his eyes was a glimpse of amazement. This kid's face, figure, and temperament were all what he liked. He was quite like his master back then! Thinking of his master, Yan Mingchi's heart was filled with emotion again.
"Shui Wulian is not my lover, she is my friend." Yue Lanxiu stopped and stood at the bottom of the stairs and clarified.
He will never forget that he is married and has a proud wife!
Remembering that his wife was Yan Mingchi's apprentice, his desire to understand Yan Mingchi became even stronger! Only by understanding him could he find a way to deal with him, right? Helping his wife escape the demon Yan Mingchi was his primary responsibility!
"What your relationship is has nothing to do with me. What matters to me is how the person who betrayed me dies!" He said this coldly and ruthlessly, without a trace of humanity on his face.
Yue Lanxiu's eyes were filled with cold disapproval, but he quickly brushed it off, "Do you enjoy killing people so much? If that's the case, there's no need for you to see my master."
Yan Mingchi raised an eyebrow, looking arrogant and dangerous. "Are you saying that you will only take me to see your master if I release your friend?"
With a smile on his lips, Yue Lanxiu shook his head and said, "What I mean is, my master is probably not the person you're looking for! I originally thought that you and my master were friends, but I suddenly realized that my master would never be friends with a murderer! My master hates killing the most!"
He said this because he had clearly understood that the person Yan Mingchi was looking for was his master, and Yan Mingchi seemed to have strange feelings for his master! Don't blame him for being despicable, he didn't hesitate to use other people's emotions to save people!
In the past few days, he contacted his master. Although it was his master's wife who responded, she knew the master's affairs best. She told him that Yan Mingchi was a fellow disciple of his master. Because their styles were completely different, his master didn't like to have much contact with Yan Mingchi. On the contrary, Yan Mingchi was particularly kind to his master! According to his master's wife, every time Yan Mingchi looked at his master, his eyes were filled with roses! Like a woman looking at her beloved man!
I got goosebumps again. Although I guessed that Yan Mingchi and my master might be old friends, I never expected that it was an emotion that transcends gender, such as a man pursuing a man!
No wonder the master always lives in hiding and dares not use his real name. With such a top-notch boss coveting him, no one can do anything about it!
The Master's wife also told him that Yan Mingchi not only expressed his love to the Master, but also forced the Master to accept it! He immediately felt extremely sympathetic towards the Master!
Therefore, regarding the whereabouts of the master, let alone asking the master's wife to tell him, even if the master's wife didn't tell him, he would never reveal a single thing!
Yan Mingchi was even more certain that Yue Lanxiu's master was the one he was looking for, because he really didn't like him killing people! He had also promised him that as long as he accepted his feelings, he would never kill anyone again! But he disappeared without a trace! There had been no news of him for so many years!
Fortunately, he has met his apprentice now!
Then it won’t be too far before we meet him again!
"I don't kill innocent people indiscriminately, but I will never allow myself to be bullied! If no one offends me, I will never offend anyone!" Yan Mingchi always looks arrogant.
But Yue Lanxiu could tell he was justifying his actions. Justifying himself proved he cared! Only if he cared would he make concessions!
Everything was within Yue Lanxiu's expectations, but he didn't dare show any satisfaction in front of this dangerous man.
"But it doesn't mean you have to kill people!"
Yan Mingchi laughed when he heard Yue Lanxiu's words. It must be that the master and disciple were equally naive! He remembered his response at the time, "If you don't kill him, he'll think you're incapable of killing him, and then he'll just keep bullying you! He's like a nodule in your life, and one day he'll become a cancer!"
Yue Lanxiu stared, speechless for a moment. Everyone has his own reasons for doing things, which he thinks are reasonable!
"However, if you can give me a reason not to kill her, maybe I will let her go!" Maybe it was because he was in a good mood, but Yan Mingchi still compromised. After all, he didn't want the first sentence after meeting again after a long separation to be, do you still like killing people so much?
Yue Lanxiu's eyes flashed as he walked up the stairs and said, "This is a long story, so I'll try to be brief. I wonder if you know Tang Zhen?"
"The one whose entire family was wiped out?" Yan Mingchi asked without hesitation, obviously knowing something about Tang Zhen's affairs.
"Yes, it happened many years ago, but unfortunately the real murderer has never been found." Yue Lanxiu did not sit across the table from him, but the beauty leaned over and sat down, but still spoke face to face.
"Hasn't he been found yet? I remember he should have been found, and he has been sentenced to death, right?" Yan Mingchi seemed to be asking casually, without any curiosity or interest on his face.
"You seem to know a lot about him!" Yue Lanxiu raised his eyebrows, his eyes always locked on his face.
"Tang Zhen once plotted against me, and I always wanted to return the favor. I didn't expect that before I could even make a move, he had already accepted someone else's big gift package!" Yan Mingchi said bluntly.
Yue Lanxiu recalled Master's wife's previous comments about Yan Mingchi: that although he was a bad man, he never lied. He was daring and never shirked responsibility. He would rather not tell you than lie to you!
According to Yan Mingchi, he has nothing to do with Tang Zhen’s murder?
"The person sentenced to death wasn't the one who sent Tang Zhen the gift package. He was a pathetic person who was wrongly accused!" Yue Lanxiu saw a mocking look of disapproval on Yan Mingchi's face when he said this, but he didn't dwell on it and continued, "The case was just recently retried, and they said the real murderer was someone else. Although the conclusion was correct, the outcome was still wrong! The person they caught still wasn't the real murderer!"
"Oh? Who did they catch again?" Hearing the sadness and anger hidden in his emotions, Yan Mingchi guessed that the man had a close relationship with him.
"They mistakenly arrested Xia Tianhan, and because of this, Xia Tianhan has been involved in a murder!" Yan Mingchi's expression told him that Yan Mingchi was unaware of the matter. To describe him as indifferent seemed more appropriate! Yan Mingchi and Xia Tianhan were probably not familiar with each other, at least not in the form of accomplices!
"You mean Xia Tianhan is dead."
"Yes, he was silenced by his accomplices!"
"Accomplice?"
"He's his accomplice who conspired with him to murder Tang Zhen's family!" Yue Lanxiu paid special attention to his expression after hearing the word "accomplice". He just couldn't tell if he was just too good at disguising himself, or if he was truly as calm inside as he appeared.
"How could Xia Tianhan, with such a simple mind, be capable of planning to kill someone? And who would be so stupid as to find Xia Tianhan as an accomplice? It would be more like finding him as a scapegoat!" Yan Mingchi sneered and expressed his opinion.
"Hearing you say that, you also think that Xia Tianhan was wronged, and you know Xia Tianhan very well, right? You two are very familiar with each other?" Yue Lanxiu followed up with a question.
"I'm not familiar with him. I'd say I've never met him formally, but I've seen how he acts. He doesn't seem like a smart guy!"
Yue Lanxiu studied his every expression and movement, not feeling that he was telling lies.
"But among those who are good friends with Xia Tianhan, there is someone I am very familiar with!" Yan Mingchi added, and his expression became a little more weird when he said this.
"Oh? Who is it?" Yue Lanxiu asked slowly, not wanting to let the other party see his eagerness to know. Judging from his expression, he seemed to have a good relationship with that person.
"You are so smart, just check it yourself!" Yan Mingchi said obviously.
Yue Lanxiu had no way to pry open the mouth for a moment.
"It's okay if you don't say it," Yue Lanxiu said, looking as if he didn't really want to care. He knew that the more he showed concern, the less Yan Mingchi would say it! Maybe seeing that he didn't care, Yan Mingchi would be unable to hold it in and would speak out.
"What if I say that person happens to know who the real murderer is?" Yan Mingchi smiled evilly. He didn't believe that this kid could still keep his composure.
Yue Lanxiu paused, his gaze fixed on him becoming increasingly stern. He said firmly, "You know that too, right?"
Yan Mingchi made an expression that said, "I do know, but I don't want to say it."
Yue Lanxiu had so many life ideals to share, but in the end, they turned into a long sigh. If Yan Mingchi understood those principles, how could he kill people? Helplessly, he said, "Are you really unwilling to say it? Even now, there are rumors outside that you, Yan Mingchi, are Xia Tianhan's accomplice!"
"So what? What can they do to me!" Yan Mingchi said cynically.
It was no surprise that he was so arrogant. Yue Lanxiu tried to persuade him kindly, "If I were you, I would never take the blame for others! And do you really not care about anyone's opinion? If the person you are looking for hears about your murderous deeds again, I wonder if he will hate you even more and stay away from you?" Seeing the arrogant smile on his face fade slightly, Yue Lanxiu knew that he had stepped on his tail.
"Whoever framed me, I will naturally hold him accountable! As for who the real murderer is, it would be boring to tell you directly. I still like to see you investigating cases, especially that worried expression when you can't find the truth. It's charming just thinking about it! But what I'm most looking forward to is your expression after you've solved the case, hahaha..." Bursts of laughter were full of mockery of him.
As expected of Yan Mingchi, even if you grab his tail, you can't just shake it wherever you want! "Do whatever you like! But, don't you want a chance to clear your name? At least don't let your long-lost friend misunderstand you!" Yue Lanxiu continued to persuade.
This Yan Mingchi is also a weirdo! If he knew who the real murderer was, why didn't he just say it out loud and defend himself? Unless he was just making it up... unless he had a close relationship with the real murderer... unless he himself was the murderer, or an accomplice! Unless, as Yan Mingchi himself said, he just wanted to see him in such a state of confusion!
The laughter stopped immediately. Yue Lanxiu knew that as long as he mentioned his master, everything would work in front of Yan Mingchi!
"From the sound of your voice, it seems that there is a way to help me clear the suspicion, but there is a condition. The condition is to release Shui Wulian!" Yan Mingchi's sharp eyes pierced into his heart like a cold sword, seeing through his thoughts.
"I asked you to release Shui Wulian because she can prove who is behind the blame and clear your name! If you kill her..."
Yan Mingchi coldly continued Yue Lanxiu's unfinished words, "Is there no one left who can prove my innocence? As far as I know, Luosha has many disciples who work for him! I will bring them all here and stir-fry them in a big pot. I am not afraid that they will not reveal the truth!"
Yue Lanxiu was secretly surprised. It turned out that this old homosexual knew everything! It wasn't that he didn't know that Luosha was behind the scenes, but he simply didn't take Luosha seriously!
If it weren't for the fact that his master hated killing the most and Yan Mingchi cared a lot about his master's opinion, this devil would simply not bother to prove his innocence!
"You still don't know enough. Shui Wulian is the one who knows the truth and has evidence of Luosha's crimes. The others are just following orders!" Although it was only a guess with some certainty, he had to act very confidently.
"You mean if you want to torture her, just use Shui Wulian alone, right?" Yan Mingchi deliberately twisted his meaning, wanting to see his anxious expression.
But Yue Lanxiu remained calm and unmoved. "I don't know how well you know her, but the Shui Wulian I know may appear weak on the outside, but she's a strong woman at heart! She's very afraid of you and death, but if there's something that wouldn't benefit her at all, she'll insist on keeping it to herself!"
Yan Mingchi narrowed his eyes and remained silent. Indeed, that woman appeared timid and obedient, but inwardly she was not so easily submissive and would resist more than anyone else! She was the first person who dared to betray him after understanding how terrifying he was! "If that's what you said, I'll have to let her go in exchange!"
"What else do you have to say?" Yue Lanxiu said with an annoying smile.
"Humph, I really don't want to kill her that much now." Yan Mingchi said this, and the smile that slowly appeared on his face looked malicious. "But I don't want you to get too cocky! So I thought about it and decided that I can hold her back for now, but I won't let her go. If you have the guts, go save her!"
Yue Lanxiu opened his mouth, but the word "thank you" was stuck in his throat, and the smile on his face died awkwardly.
