Chapter 55 The cruel truth
"This little thief has grown wings and is now teaching me a lesson." Yan Lingji's face darkened. Was she being looked down upon?
"I dare not, I dare not. Thank you very much for your help this time." Yang Chong waved his hands repeatedly.
No matter what, Yan Lingji did help her a lot this time, and Yang Chong must remember this friendship. Of course, Yang Chong also owed a favor to Yan Lingji, and Yan Lingji's help was largely just out of gratitude, but it was also a response after all.
"If I didn't go, wouldn't you have lost? It's called a gamble on your life, but it's a life-and-death situation. Are you gambling? You're simply courting death." Yan Lingji then remembered what she wanted to say before.
Not to mention Yang Chong's situation at that time, even with Yang Chong's current strength, if the same thing happened again, Yan Lingji did not think that Yang Chong could win. You have to know that there were three Luowang's first-class killers in Weijia Village before, and there was also Zongheng, who was powerful and cooperated with each other as well as Luowang's first-class killers. Any one of them had the strength to kill Yang Chong.
"If I don't go, I will be dead in the future." Yang Chong smiled complacently, not caring about the previous danger at all. No matter how dangerous it was, it was over. If he needed to choose again, Yang Chong would still make the same decision, because he had no better choice at all, and he won the bet.
Now he has opened up two of the eight extraordinary meridians and touched the third one. His martial arts can be considered to have made some progress. Jingwei has also retreated. She has to escort Yanri back to Xianyang and has no energy to take care of herself in the short term. The threat of the Jingwei sword will have to go away for at least three months. This is the reward for his life-threatening gamble.
"What's the matter with your wife?" Yan Lingji asked with a frown. Yan Lingji knew that the silver-faced female killer had an engagement with Yang Chong, but it was just an engagement. However, she remembered that Yang Chong called her wife.
Did something happen during the time Yang Chong was trapped in Weijia Village? You know, a fiancée and a wife are not the same thing, the difference between them is huge.
"A wife is a wife, but, hehe, she probably can't take care of me for now. I'm just very curious about how she will kill me next?" Yang Chong said with a smile, even looking forward to it.
The pressure that Jingwei brought to him at the beginning was quite a lot. Of course, the gentle world she created was also tempting enough.
Yanri helped him a lot, which was an unexpected surprise. Now Yanri had suffered heavy losses in his skills, and if he wanted to return to Qin, he could only be escorted by Jingwei. The round trip took a long time. More importantly, Yanri directly revealed Jingwei's identity for self-protection. Jingwei's suffering these days was in vain. To be honest, Yang Chong took a huge advantage for nothing. In a sense, it was really a free gift.
Thinking of the days and nights at Weijiazhuang, Yang Chong felt a sense of nostalgia. The extreme ecstasy of being on the brink of death was exciting just thinking about it. It could be described as a clash of ice and fire.
For now, the pressure from Jingwei has been temporarily relieved.
However, who exactly is Yanri? Although he is also a top-notch assassin of Luowang and his martial arts are among the best even among the top-notch assassins, he is somewhat different from the top-notch assassins like Hei Bai Xuan Jian and Jing Wei.
Whether it is Hei Bai Xuan Jian or Jing Wei, they are just tools to execute orders, but Yanri is the one who can give orders. This is interesting. Could it be that the "legendary" character is really like this?
However, if that happened, since Yanri had absorbed so much internal energy and true essence from me, I don't know if he would become weak. If so, it would be even more interesting.
Yang Chong, feeling relaxed, could no longer control his wandering thoughts.
Looking at Yang Chong's expression which kept changing, sometimes nostalgic, sometimes complacent, and sometimes dissolute, Yan Lingji's hesitation gradually turned into determination. Although some things were cruel, they had to be faced. It was better to tell Yang Chong now than to wait for Yang Chong to find out himself. Moreover, it would be fun to hit Yang Chong now given the way he was now.
Moreover, Yang Lin and Qi Fu must have had a big plan for Yang Chong. If Yang Chong knew about it earlier, he could have taken precautions in advance. Otherwise, who could have prevented the backstab from his relatives? "I have something to tell you, but you must stay calm after hearing it!" Yan Lingji looked serious and stopped calling herself "sister".
"What makes you so serious? Could it be..." Yang Chong looked at Yan Lingji hesitantly, and his gaze inevitably fell on Yan Lingji's lower abdomen.
Yang Chong's scrutinizing gaze made Yan Lingji feel a little uncomfortable, but thinking about what she was about to say, she still looked at Yang Chong with a stern face. However, Yang Chong's next words directly broke her defense.
Yang Chong didn't finish his words, but Yan Lingji already understood. She angrily slapped Yang Chong on the intact shoulder and said, "What are you thinking about? I'm talking about your business."
"My business?" Yang Chong was stunned.
Yan Lingji is rarely serious, so Yang Chong was a little uncomfortable with her sudden seriousness.
"Of course it's your business. In this world, I only know you. Apart from your business, who else can it be? Listen carefully, although this matter may be a little cruel to you, I must tell you that after all, a short pain is worse than a long one." Yan Lingji said.
"Is Yan Lingji going to leave me?" Yang Chong, who was completely relaxed, was very interested in playing some verbal games with Yan Lingji.
"Could you please stop interrupting?" Yan Lingji was annoyed. Those damn Koreans were so rude.
"Okay, please go ahead." Seeing that Yan Lingji was about to get angry, Yang Chong realized that it was time to quit while he was ahead.
"This matter is related to your true life experience." Yan Lingji took a deep breath and mobilized the words of her not-so-much intelligent organization. The content of the words could not be changed, but the way of saying them could be adjusted to minimize the damage.
With Yang Chong listening intently, Yan Lingji continued, "The real surname of your Yang family should be Jiang or Lu, and you are descendants of the former royal family of Qi."
"Really? Didn't I say that I am the descendant of the Six Tribes of Emperor Yan? The Six Tribes of Emperor Yan and the former royal family of Qi State are from the same lineage." Yang Chong said.
"But that's just the Yang family, not you." Yan Lingji made up her mind. Unable to think of a more gentle way to express it, she simply chose the most direct way.
"You are not from the Yang family, nor are you Yang Lin's son. His real son is Qi Fu from your Xiliu Village, and you are just Yang Lin's adopted child. You are just a scapegoat for him to replace Qi Fu and deal with the enemies of the Yang family." Yan Lingji said.
