Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1838 Water Dragon's Chant 41

Xi Fangtao then understood what Jiang Xinxin had gone through. Upon examining her, she discovered that Jiang Xinxin's internal injuries were extremely severe. She guessed, "A magical artifact that can send someone back to the past is no ordinary artifact. Activating this artifact must have cost a lot. Your Highness stopped this artifact with your bare hands. Presumably, all these internal injuries are caused by the backlash from the artifact."

Puzhu couldn't help but feel regret: "Why is it that no matter what I do, I can't succeed..."

Xi Fangtao quickly grabbed Puzhu's hand to comfort her: "Because you want too much. You want peace in the world, but this is not something you can do alone. Even the current emperor, although he restored the country to a certain extent in the past, still has many people with selfish motives in the court."

"And it's not like you accomplished nothing. I used to be a cult leader, and so many of my men did so many harmful things. You guided me to good and gave me a chance to turn over a new leaf."

Looking at Xi Fangtao, who was still as radiant as ever, but had lost some of her wickedness and gained a more serene air, Puzhu felt somewhat comforted.

But the most important thing right now is Jiang Xinxin's internal injuries. Pu Zhu doesn't know how to heal her, because he has been secretly channeling his internal energy into Jiang Xinxin all this way, but there has been no improvement whatsoever. His magnificent and profound internal energy, once it enters Jiang Xinxin's body, is like a stone sinking into the sea, without causing the slightest ripple. Instead, Jiang Xinxin's body is regulating its own breathing. So, apart from providing Jiang Xinxin with a safe and quiet environment to recuperate, there is nothing else he can do.

But Xifang Tao brought up another matter: "Today I secretly went to Xifeng Garden, which is where Bai Souche and Red Fox are hiding. I didn't expect that someone would find their way there after I left. Moreover, Chi Yun, who is with Tang Lizhi, is Bai Souche's fiancé. He has probably been harmed by those people. I don't know if the antidote in Your Highness's possession can save Chi Yun."

"Furthermore, I also discovered that before Gui Mudan was killed by the princess, she sent an ice coffin to Bodhi Valley. I don't know who is buried in the ice coffin, but it is likely to be closely related to Tang Lizhi. Perhaps it is the remains of Fang Zhou, the Seven-Stringed True Sound, or perhaps it is the physical body of Yi Que Yin Yang."

Pu Zhu never expected that so many things could happen even as the Central Plains Sword Society went all out to wipe out the Fengliu Shop. At this moment, he was truly grateful that Gui Mudan, who had been controlling the Western Peach, had died at Jiang Xinxin's hands long ago.

Now Pu Zhu has no choice but to go in person, so he solemnly entrusted Jiang Xinxin to Xi Fangtao: "Tao, you will take care of Xinxin. I need to go and inform Tang Lizhi, Chi Yun, and about the ice coffin."

Xi Fangtao felt it was her duty to do so: "Go with peace of mind, I will definitely not let anyone harm the princess."

Pu Zhu, of course, trusted Xi Fangtao completely. After receiving her response, she glanced at Jiang Xinxin and hurriedly went out to find Tang Li to resign.

When he arrived at Tang Lizhi's residence, he discovered that the place had just experienced a major battle. The sizable courtyard was completely destroyed, and naturally, there wasn't a single person in sight. Fortunately, he didn't see any signs of injury, otherwise he would have been even more worried.

On her way to the Central Plains Sword Gathering, Pu Zhu encountered a somewhat disheveled Tang Lizhi and Shen Langhun. Tang Lizhi, seeing that Pu Zhu had deliberately come looking for her, guessed that Pu Zhu must have discovered something. Without exchanging pleasantries, she asked directly, "Pu Zhu, do you have any news here?"

Puzhu quickly said, "An hour ago, I met Xinxin. She interrupted the magical artifact that Chai Xijin had activated, which could travel back in time, but was backfired by the artifact and was injured. Tao is taking care of her now. I came here to tell you some news."

Tang Lizhi quickly asked, "Is the princess's injury serious? Is there any other news I need to know?"

Pu Zhu said, "Tao went to Xifeng Garden. According to her, it seems that Young Master Chi Yun was poisoned by the remnants of Fengliu Shop. She doesn't know if the antidote made by Xin Xin can cure the poison in Young Master Chi Yun's body. In addition, before Gui Mudan died, she sent an ice coffin to Bodhi Valley. Tao guessed that the person in the ice coffin was either Qixian Zhengyin Fang Zhou or Yi Que Yin Yang."

Tang Lizhi understood and quickly exchanged information with Puzhu: "If the Western girl's information is correct, then the ice coffin sent to Bodhi Valley should contain Fang Zhou's physical body. I want to go there immediately to retrieve Fang Zhou, so I will postpone my visit to the princess. I hope you can understand."

Pu Zhu could understand this perfectly well. After all, Tang Lizhi still wanted to revive Fang Zhou. Although he thought Tang Lizhi was probably delusional, he hadn't harmed anyone else or damaged any innocent interests, so he could only let him be.

Shen Langhun threw out the bag on his back and said to Puzhu, "Master, this bag contains the body of Yi Que Yin Yang. Before leaving, Her Highness the Princess killed him with her own hands and instructed us to send the body of Yi Que Yin Yang to the government so that the government could hang it on the city tower to comfort the relatives and friends of those who died because of Yi Que Yin Yang."

Puzhu was speechless, and only then did she understand why Tang Lizhi was so certain that the person lying in the ice coffin sent to Bodhi Valley by Gui Mudan could only be Qixian Zhengyin Fangzhou. "That's good. Tao has abandoned darkness and turned to the light. Xinxin promised that if she could write down all her sins, she would be willing to give Tao a place to live."

Tang Lizhi felt somewhat uncomfortable and couldn't help but scoff, "I thought Her Highness the Princess was truly fair and just, but I didn't expect her to be willing to let Xi Fangtao off the hook for the sake of you, the former Crown Prince, and give her a chance to repent!"

Pu Zhu felt something was wrong when he heard Tang Li Ci's words, but he also knew that Tang Li Ci's senior brother Liu Yan died at the hands of Jiang Xin Xin. He wanted to say that Jiang Xin Xin would not simply forgive Xi Fang Tao's past behavior and sins just because of his face, but judging from the result, it seemed that this was the case. As a beneficiary, he could not say anything in front of Tang Li Ci.

However, Shen Langhun stood up to speak for Jiang Xinxin: "Tang Fox, you have probably wronged the princess. The princess always acts according to her own rules. At least until now, I have never heard of her letting any villain go."

Tang Lizhi closed her eyes, suppressing the sudden irritation in her heart. Her mind cleared up considerably, and she quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, it seems I've also been influenced by the 'Rebirth Manual'. This thing is indeed powerful. No wonder Fang Zhou refused to cultivate it even though he felt that people's hearts were the key to deciding actions and that the technique itself was not wrong."

Pu Zhu and Shen Langhun immediately became worried. Tang Lici waved her hand and comforted them, saying, "I already know why Ayan didn't have a chance to repent with the princess. It's because Ayan himself couldn't face the reality that he had accidentally ruined Fang Zhou's last chance at life. On the contrary, the princess made him die a worthy death..."
