Chapter 754: Have You Turned into a Spirit?
pushed the headless corpse that was stiffening in its place.The body lay on the ground, a gaping wound in its neck... blood still spurting from it.And Xiu Mei had already turned and walked off the sta...When someone else said it, Tang Dehui didn't care.
But the speaker was Lu Chu Yue, the jewel in the palm of the Lu family!
Since she has spoken, Fang Yu's fate is inevitably sealed.
Tang Dehui's face eased considerably, even breaking into a smile.
Fang Yu, this thorn in his side, the object of his hatred, was removed without any effort.
What pleased him even more was that Lu Chu Yue stood up for Tang Cong, which also showed her attitude.
From now on, the Lu family and the Tang family are one family.
This is the best news of all.
"Thank you, Chuyue," Tang Dehui said. "This kind of thing should be done by us."
"It's fine, Uncle. Tang Cong is my fiancé, and we'll be family in the future. Anyone could have done this." Lu Chu Yue replied.
These words were even more encouraging for Tang Dehui and Jiang He Yue.
The couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with smiles.
Ten minutes passed, and the door to the ward was knocked on.
A man in a blue robe walked into the ward, still holding a small medicine bottle in his hand.
"Miss, here is your ointment for cleansing wounds," the man said, bowing his head respectfully as he presented the bottle of medicine to Lu Chuyue.
Lu Chu Yue took the medicine bottle and walked to the bedside, reaching out to untie the bandage on Tang Cong's face.
"At the start of the month, things like this... perhaps we should have the nurses in the ward handle it" Tang Dehui asked.
"No need, Uncle. Let me do it." Lu Chuyue said.
Then, Lu Chuyue slowly untied the bandage from Tang Cong's face, revealing his swollen and purplish cheeks.
At this moment, Tang Cong was no longer the handsome and dashing man he usually was.
Seeing this face, Mr. and Mrs. Tang Dehui's hearts sank. The hatred in the other party's eyes was even deeper.
However, seeing Lü Chuyue carefully and attentively applying ointment to Tang Cong's wounds...their hearts filled with immense satisfaction.
Soon, they will be a true family with the Lu family.
And Fang Yu, this person, will also disappear permanently after tonight.
They needn't hold a grudge against a dead man, planning how the Tang family could secure their position as the foremost secular family in Beidu... that would be the right path.
Soon, Lu Chu Yue applied ointment to Tang Cong's wound and rebandaged it.
"Within three days, the wound will heal." Lu Chu Yue handed the medicine bottle back to the person standing behind her, and said.
"Thank you, Chuyue." said Mr. and Mrs. Tang Dehui.
At this moment, Lu Chuyue's willow-shaped eyebrows furrowed slightly.
It is 10:40 PM.
Liang Shu should have some news by now.
To date, I have not received any messages.
Could it be... that we failed
Lu Chuyue did not rule out the possibility of this assassination attempt failing.
But even if the assassination attempt failed, at worst Liang Shu had the ability to retreat unscathed.
There has been no news yet... what's going on
Lu Chu Yue looked at the time, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
Then, she took out her phone and glanced at it, but there were no messages or calls.
Something doesn't feel right.
Lu Chu Yue opened the phone book, just about to make a call.
At this moment, a phone call came in.
"What's wrong" Lu Chu Yue felt a bad premonition and asked.
"Little…Miss… Liang Gege… is dead." A trembling voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Chuyue's face changed drastically, and her heart tightened suddenly.
She had never imagined it would turn out like this!
“You…are you sure” Lu Chu Yue took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm, and asked.
"Well, I'm at the last place where Brother Liang sent a signal... There's only a pool of blood here, and the ground is sunken... It shows signs of a fight... But I didn't even find Brother Liang's body..." The voice on the other end of the phone was already trembling with grief.
For them, martial arts families, as long as they do not clash with other martial arts families, and only complete a few tasks in the mundane world, death is extremely rare.
Now, the bloody reality is right before our eyes.
Even if they didn't believe it, they had to believe it.
"Miss, what should I do now" a trembling voice asked on the other end of the phone.
Lu Chu Yue’s breathing was heavy, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
Things have gone far beyond her expectations.
Liang Shu was her most trusted subordinate. She had considered the possibility that assassinating Fang Yu might fail, but she never dreamed that Liang Shu would be counter-killed... even her body couldn't be found.
“You… first confirm if the pool of blood on the ground is Liang Shu’s… As long as his body isn’t found, there’s a possibility he survived… I’ll be back to Lu’s house soon, and you can report to me in person then.” Lu Chu Yue said softly.
After hanging up the phone, the couple saw Lu Chu Yue's face was grim, no longer with the previous serenity. They looked at each other, their eyes full of horror.
After some thought, Tang Dehui finally mustered the courage to ask, "Chuyue... is something wrong"
Lu Chu Yue glanced at the couple, her eyes filled with icy killing intent.
This startled the couple, leaving them trembling and taking several steps back.
"I'm sorry, Uncle and Aunt, I have something urgent to attend to and can't look after Tangcong tonight." Lu Chuyue took another deep breath and bowed slightly.
Then, she turned and left the ward with the attendant.
After leaving the ward, Lu Chu Yue asked the servant beside her: "Has father returned"
“The housework returned home at eight o’clock this evening.” The servant replied respectfully.
"Good." Lu Chu Yue nodded, then turned her head away, a faint blood color flashing in her eyes.
If Liang Shu really died, she would do anything to make Fang Yu pay for it!
……
Building No. 101 in Beidu, a bamboo house deep inside.
In the one-story living room, there is a dining table woven from bamboo.
On the table, there were two dishes of stir-fried vegetables and three bowls of white porridge.
Fang Yu, Ye Shengxue, and Xiao Fengling were sitting around the dining table.
"We're having a late-night snack, what are you doing here" Fang Yu frowned and said to Xiao Fengling.
"For all my hard work keeping this home running for so many years, am I not even allowed to eat at the table" Xiaofengling retorted bravely.
Fang Yu looked at Xiaofengling, his expression suddenly becoming very serious.
"You seriously telling me you can smell these dishes Do you really have the desire to eat them in your heart" Fang Yu asked.
Seeing Fang Yu suddenly become serious, Xiaofengling said timidly, "What's wrong... I won't eat it if you don't want me to..."
“Answer my question,” Fang Yu said.
“I… of course, can smell the fragrance.” Xiaofengling replied.
"When you smell something delicious, does your mind start craving it" Fang Yu asked with a frown.
Xiaofengling lowered her head and poked at her fingers, whispering, "I kind of want to eat it... but it's fine if I don't."
Seeing Xiaofengling's pitiful appearance, Ye Shengxue on the side felt pity and said, "Mr. Fang, since Sister Fengling wants to eat... then I will make an extra one from now on. It doesn't take too much time anyway..."
"Whether she eats or not isn't the problem, the problem is why she would want to eat." Fang Yu stared at Xiaofengling and said.
Ye Shengxue didn't know that Xiaofengling was just a spirit artifact, so she didn't understand Fang Yu's words.
But for the other party, it's very strange.
How could a spirit gradually become like a human
If eating is just a mimicry behavior, then I can understand.
But Xiaofengling said that she could smell the fragrance and a feeling of wanting to eat it would arise in her heart... That was very strange.
"Could it be that you've really turned into a spirit" Fang Yu reached out and pinched Xiaofengling's face, muttering to himself.
"It hurts so much!" Xiaofengling struggled desperately.
"Forget it, I'll just observe slowly later." Fang Yu let go of his hand and buried his head to start eating porridge.
Xiao Fengling secretly glanced at Fang Yu, lifted the bowl in front of her and took a sip of porridge, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
……
The next morning, Fang Yu left Beidu and arrived in northeastern China.
It has been almost ten days since Ling'er fell into the hands of the old turtle.
Therefore, he had to see how Ling'er was doing.
Through the tree trunk, Fangyu once again entered Lao Gui's opened small world.
Before reaching the mountain spring, Fang Yu did not see the figures of the old turtle and Ling'er.
Fang Yu looked around, releasing his divine sense.
Soon, he spotted the old turtle's figure inside a cave nearby.
Fang Yu walked into the cave, and inside was a quite spacious space.
The old tortoise, in human form, stood at a wooden table, upon which were various bottles and jars emanating an extremely pungent smell of medicine.tly kill thousands of members of the Tianhu clan!This person... is different from other human cultivators.Do not engage in combat, we must find a way to escape this place!Before the arrival of Taiyin...
