After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 705 - 695: Xu Zhiyi’s Heart

"Indeed, it has gotten much better. If it’s not due to the dicine, then it seems that one’s mood also has a significant impact." Xu Maochun said with a smile, glancing at Jiang Lingxi standing beside him.

This person, sotis, is also a good redy, more effective than any dicine.

Jiang Lingxi noticed Shen Yunqing’s eyes on her wrist and simply hid it behind her back, "My hand hasn’t fully recovered yet, taking a pulse might affect it. Let’s wait until my hand is better."

Shen Yunqing had no choice but to swallow back the words he was about to say.

After drinking tea, Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing bid farewell to the grandparents. However, on the way back, the two of them switched seats.

It was Shen Yunqing driving, with Jiang Lingxi sitting in the passenger seat.

"What is Your Majesty thinking about?"

"You’ve noticed." Jiang Lingxi glanced at him, lightly sighed, "You say, if it’s true that Xu Zhiyi was killed by Wu Hua, and Xu Zhiyi wasn’t a Mage but just a doctor, why would she disguise herself as a patient to murder Xu Zhiyi and then take away his heart?"

These doubts were naturally difficult to discuss in front of Xu Maochun, the deceased’s father. Now that it was just the two of them in the car, there were no concerns.

"I’ve thought about that too," Shen Yunqing pondered, "Is it possible that Wu Hua indeed had a physical problem at the ti, encountered Xu Zhiyi for treatnt, and was later killed for discovering the secret of Wu Hua’s body? However, the act of taking the heart indeed lacks logic."

"It’s a pity the person is dead."

Of course, this pity is only that the main party cannot give her answers.

"It’s probably morning at Wu Jue’s place now, right?"

Shen Yunqing checked the ti, "Almost."

"Then I’ll call Wu Jue now."

When the call to Wu Jue connected, Jiang Lingxi got straight to the point, "Wu Jue, Yunqing and I t soone today who was likely killed by Wu Hua. That person died eight years ago and had the sa markings as those on the back of my hand. His heart was taken by Wu Hua after death."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Lingxi heard the sound of sothing being knocked over and breaking on the other side of the phone.

"Wu Jue? What’s happening over there?"

"I’ll hurry back as soon as I can."

Jiang Lingxi detected the urgency in Wu Jue’s voice, "Have you finished everything on your side?"

"Almost, the remaining wrap-up can be handled by Hemier. I should get to the Imperial City by tomorrow."

Jiang Lingxi: "...Alright, then co to Xiyuan to find Yunqing and when you return to the Imperial City."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lingxi reviewed Wu Jue’s reaction, "Wu Jue’s reaction to this matter seems a bit big; he probably really knows sothing. He said he can return to the Imperial City tomorrow."

"Let’s wait to ask him when he returns; such things are not easy to discuss over the phone."

"Mm."

Both Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing thought it would be good if Wu Jue could return by noon or afternoon tomorrow.

Unless you hung up the phone and imdiately boarded a plane.

But unexpectedly, the next morning, when they woke up, they saw soone sitting properly in the main hall outside.

Sumr Solstice: "Master Wu Jue arrived an hour ago."

"You really hurried back non-stop. Has your health improved?"

"Improved, but not fully recovered yet." Wu Jue said with a bitter smile, "But the information Your Majesty brought this ti is too important, I had to co back as soon as possible."

"What information? About Xu Zhiyi?"

"Exactly. Your Majesty might rember when Changning returned to the country with you, I asked her to bring back a heart as well?"

Jiang Lingxi felt a flash of inspiration, "Could it be that the heart is not Wu Hua’s?"

Wu Jue pressed his lips and nodded.

"I thought so; Wu Hua was black inside and out, even her blood was black, how could she have such a beautiful heart. That heart originally belonged to Xu Zhiyi?"

"Exactly," Wu Jue said solemnly, "Since ancient tis, practicing evil techniques has never been harmless, ultimately turning a person into sothing neither human nor ghost. Wu Hua is such an example. Her heart was the first to be eroded by necromantic energy. But in her view, if the heart couldn’t be used, she would replace it to continue using it. However, not everyone’s heart can be used; it must be fully grown adult hearts, brimming with vitality, and must belong to soone benevolent and selfless, possessing a noble spirit to resist her body’s other parts’ daily infiltration by necromantic energy, allowing it to be used longer."

Jiang Lingxi continued his statent, "So, she set her sights on Xu Zhiyi. The Xu family has long been a household of traditional Chinese dicine saving lives, and Xu Zhiyi was an adult with a definitely healthy heart. His benevolence and selflessness, as a doctor, were unquestionable, making him the perfect heart donor!"

Wu Jue slowly nodded, "Yesterday on the phone, Your Majesty ntioned you and Yunqing saw Xu Zhiyi’s body?"

"That’s right, Xu Zhiyi’s father, Elder Xu Maochun, is an old acquaintance of mine; we have each other’s contact information. Yesterday I had an advertisent endorsent event, and he happened to see the markings on my hand in the video, which mirrored those left on Xu Zhiyi, so he contacted ."

"The elder didn’t want his son to die in vain; he has been striving to seek the truth over the years and even froze Xu Zhiyi’s body, contacting without wanting to give up any possible clue. I called you yesterday right after leaving the Xu family."

Shen Yunqing handed a cup of tea to the two who had talked for quite a while upon eting, summarizing, "This is truly a case of destiny at work."

Jiang Lingxi took a sip of tea, "By the way, Wu Jue, when you initially had Changning bring back the heart, what was the plan?"

"Firstly, to bring him ho; secondly, for ancestral worship. I just didn’t expect his body would have been preserved by his family until now, so it should be returned to the original owner."

Saying so, Wu Jue set down his teacup and pulled out his phone to send a ssage to Changning.

"I’m having Changning bring the box back, and I’ll trouble Your Majesty to take to the Xu family."

Jiang Lingxi decisively nodded, "No problem."

It wasn’t until Wu Jue got up that Jiang Lingxi realized what he ant by not being fully recovered.

The upper part of his body appeared normal, but from the waist down, it seed as if a hundred-pound boulder was invisibly bound to him; his movents were heavy and slow, almost tripping over the coffee table.

Shen Yunqing quickly supported him, "It’s truly arduous for you."

Dragging such a body and arriving so fast!

Jiang Lingxi looked at Wu Jue, "I saw a tech news article on my phone a few days ago, saying there’s a certain chance a person could be revived after being frozen and then thawed. Xu Zhiyi was frozen by his father after death, and his heart was preserved and returned by you after Wu Hua’s death. So, is it possible for him to awaken once reintegrated with his body?"

"If conventional dical thods aren’t viable, then how about with the addition of Mage techniques?"

After all, the four of them alive and well in this hall, rely also on the enigmatic art of the Mage!
