He paused and sighed, saying, “I don’t know why, but he started resorting to poison, bought poison from the Colored Glass Pavilion to deal with . I made a careless move and fell victim to his sche!”
“So, you couldn’t tolerate him anymore…” Liu Shii concluded. After a mont, she added, “Could it be that Wu Duosi died at your hands?”
Zhong Lang shook his head and said, “No. The last ti he approached , he poisoned . I then crippled one of his hands! Three months later, I heard he died. The limp body confird it was indeed Wu Duosi. It was because of this; the corpse had a missing arm.”
Liu Shii lowered her gaze and said, “He lost an arm, and in the following years, he challenged people everywhere. He must have made plenty of enemies, and those seeking revenge naturally ca for him when he was vulnerable.”
Zhong Lang said, “Eldest Miss Liu is exceptionally intelligent.”
“Then, how did your conflict with dicine Lord arise?” Liu Shii inquired.
Zhong Lang replied, “Because I was poisoned. I wanted to find a cure, so he approached the Colored Glass Pavilion.”
Liu Shii blinked and asked, “Didn’t the Colored Glass Pavilion provide you with the antidote?”
“No,” Zhong Lang shook his head, “The mistake was that the Colored Glass Pavilion did provide with the antidote!”
He had always been expressionless, like a block of wood, but when he spoke of this, his eyes turned slightly icy. He continued, “Because the Colored Glass Pavilion is mysterious, I could only rely on luck and ca to Mu Jiangli. Mu Jiangli detoxified , and I never wanted to owe anyone a favor. So, I offered to repay him. Mu Jiangli asked to join the Colored Glass Pavilion and work for him for three years. I agreed.”
Liu Shii furrowed her brows.
In this regard, Zhong Lang was indeed like this. She saved him, asked him for five years of service, and he agreed!
Zhong Lang went on, “But later, I discovered that Mu Jiangli was only using my martial arts skills to turn into an assassin. Everything he made do was killing. I left his side.”
“What happened next?” Liu Shii asked.
She recalled her impression of Mu Jiangli. While she didn’t think he was a pushover, did he have such a bloodthirsty nature?
Looking at him, Mu Jiangli didn’t seem to exude a murderous aura. Could it be that he used others to kill for him?
Zhong Lang said, “Before leaving, I left a letter explaining the reasons. It wasn’t like I left without a word. But Mu Jiangli thought I was untrustworthy, so he targeted . After several encounters, he finally poisoned with Colored Glass Drunk!”
He glanced at Liu Shii and said, “When I you, Eldest Miss, in the Zheng dical Hall, it was already when the poison struck for the third ti.”
“So, you survived the previous two tis? You really are resilient,” Liu Shii exclaid.
Zhong Lang nodded. The grievances were all laid out, and he didn’t speak further.
He was usually this taciturn, like a closed jar. If not necessary, he wouldn’t utter a word.
Liu Shii understood his temperant. After a mont of thought, she asked, “Then why do you think Mu Jiangli wanted to kill you?”
Zhong Lang flatly replied, “I suspect he did sothing unspeakable, sothing he wanted to keep hidden. He feared that if I continued working with him, I would learn his secrets.”
From his expression, it was evident that he genuinely believed this.
Perhaps that was the only possibility?
Still, Liu Shii wanted to ask Mu Jiangli herself to hear his side of the story.
Seeing Liu Shii silent, Zhong Lang spoke again, “Eldest Miss, since Mu Jiangli is here, why not let settle our personal grievances with him?”
