Chapter 443: Chapter 319: Then I’ll Transcribe Scriptures for You Too! (Extra Chapter, Seeking Monthly Votes)
He understood!
He understood why he lost so completely!
Besides his deceased parents, who else in the world could understand him so well?
Liang Ning had seen him at his most downtrodden, most helpless; she mastered the details of his life for a full six years!
To catch a clue from him wasn’t difficult at all!
Besides, she died by his own hands back then, and that dagger was the cause of it all!
"No, I don’t believe it!"
He gritted his teeth and shook his head.
"Do you not believe, or are you unwilling to believe?"
Fu Zhen leaned on her sword with both hands on the ground, looking down with disdain: "It’s already July now, and in another month, it will be the anniversary of my death seven years ago.
"Seven years ago, you painstakingly plotted to kill me, thinking it was once and for all, that no one would ever obstruct your future and your plans.
"But when it came down to it, I, this ghost, still emerged to expose you completely. How could you be content?"
Fu Zhen’s eyebrows carried a hint of mockery, just like in the chapel at the northwest corner of Baihe Temple seven years ago, looking down at Liang Ning from above!
Xu Yin avoided her gaze, looking at the ground.
The guards beside him were clearly also starting to become flustered under these facts, and they involuntarily gathered around Xu Yin.
Back then, when deciding to kill Liang Ning, some of these people were involved, and they were all Death Servants raised by Xu Yin, so they naturally knew all about these things.
No one ever imagined that Liang Ning would come back alive, but that’s what happened!
If even someone burned to death could come back alive, what else can’t happen?!
"What on earth is going on?" Xu Yin raised his head, "What exactly did I overlook?"
The matter he was so sure of was overthrown, and now he began to doubt himself.
"You were thorough in your considerations. You, Vice Minister Xu, act meticulously. How could there be any mistake in killing someone who never had any ulterior motives towards you? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had to wait seven years to stand before you again!"
Xu Yin’s facial muscles twitched, and he added, "Then why have you become like this?"
"Of course, it’s because even the heavens couldn’t stand it and granted me a new good appearance!" Fu Zhen sneered.
Xu Yin looked downcast at the ground, "But you looked good originally too."
Fu Zhen eyed him, her lips curving sharply.
Xu Yin looked up again, "Taiping, I was wrong! I was really wrong, can you give me a chance to explain?!"
Fu Zhen squinted her eyes, leaning on her sword and looking at him: "Of course not! Who do you think you are?"
Xu Yin bit his lower lip hard enough to draw blood, nodding: "I know! You hate me. I treated you like that, even if you were to cut me into pieces, it would be what I deserve."
Fu Zhen raised an eyebrow and said idly, "You still shouldn’t have cunningly used the situation to seduce Yongping."
Xu Yin hesitated.
She tugged her lips, "If you hadn’t married her, I wouldn’t have thought later, how could you, if truly for advancement, have married someone like Yongping with whom there were long-standing ambiguous rumors? This doesn’t align at all with the reputation you’ve crafted.
"And if I hadn’t started pondering you from here, I naturally wouldn’t have thought of so many clues later, nor would I have discovered that your marriage to Yongping had ulterior motives.
"If I hadn’t come back, or say, if I hadn’t discovered these things, ’what I deserve’ would certainly not come out of your mouth."
Xu Yin stared at her for a moment: "These years, every New Year’s festival, I went up the mountain to pray, I never missed one for you. All the scriptures chanted for you, I copied by hand! Though I was compelled to marry Yongping, there has always been only a place for you in my heart!"
"Well, thank you then!" Fu Zhen said, "You’ve been so good to me, when you die, I’ll also hire ten people to chant scriptures for you every day!"
Xu Yin was choked.
"Taiping!" He took another step forward, "Why do you—"
He only took a single step!
As he lifted his foot, Fu Zhen’s sword was drawn, and it rested right against his heart!
"Taiping is not a name you should call, but if you’re not convinced, you can try calling it again."
Fu Zhen spoke in a steady voice, her lips even maintaining a steady upward curve.
Of course, the sword in her hand was steadier than her voice, and if it weren’t for those who knew, who could have thought she was facing the enemy who had once let her burn to death with his own hands?
Xu Yin’s gaze stayed fixed on her face for a long moment, "You’ve changed, you’re more composed than before."
Fu Zhen’s tone was lazy, "Though I don’t want to say, thanks to you, you took my life, it was the fall I took because of you that taught me not all men in this world are as open and selfless as the men of our Liang Family. Beneath the sunlight, the ground is full of rats like you, hiding in the gutters!"
As she spoke, she extended her hand, the sword tip instantly pierced his clothes and then his flesh.
Blood quickly soaked the fabric, blooming into a downward spreading crimson pattern.
Xu Yin wiped it with his hand, looked at the warm blood on his fingers, then looked up at her: "This kind of injury won’t kill me.
"If you truly don’t want me to call you that, why don’t you pierce me with your sword?"
"Good question."
Fu Zhen retracted her sword: "Zhi’er, take all of his minions out first."
Liang Zhi was slightly stunned.
He paused, then opened his arms, clapped, and summoned a group of guards inside.
"Master!"
The Xu family guards tightened their grip on their weapons.
At this moment, if they didn’t retreat voluntarily, they would have to fight.
But fighting would be to no benefit!
They only had so few people, although Lian Rong was still behind and would come later to support, facing the Liang Family head-on in a short-range confrontation was impossible to win.
Xu Yin’s chest heaved, and he said, "Leave two people on the rooftop, let me speak with an old acquaintance."
The guards exchanged glances and then withdrew to the rooftop, leaving two behind, while the rest dispersed.
Liang Zhi exchanged a glance with Fu Zhen and then led his men out the door.
The mansion was already surrounded, even if Xu Yin’s men retreated voluntarily, they would just stand a bit farther away, still trapped in this circle.
Liang Zhi stepped out the door, and outside those tied-up Xu family guards were being flogged.
These people, though ordered by Xu Yin, knew they were committing heinous acts yet willingly assisted him, and thus they deserved to die.
"Second Master, General Pei is here!"
Liang Zhi had just taken a sip from a water jug when the sound of hooves came from the alley.
Pei Zhan indeed came galloping quickly. He was followed by a large group of guards.
When he dismounted and rushed to the door, Pei Zhan shouted, "Where’s my wife?!"
