"Be careful, my Lord!!!"
The change happened in an instant.
Just as Jiang Pengji turned around, Hua Yuan, who had picked up the dagger, suddenly had a ferocious look on his face. He held the dagger in his hand and was about to stab Jiang Pengji in the back.
Wei Ci and the rest were a little further away and could not rush to escort the Emperor at this distance. They could only shout out a warning.
The idle audience sitting in front of the screen was scared out of their wits. Before they could scream, Jiang Pengji, who was ambushed by Hua Yuan, seemed to have grown a pair of eyes on the back of her head. She unsheathed her God Slaying Sword and hit Hua Yuan's wrist with the back of the sword, knocking the dagger out of his hand.
Looking at Hua Yuan, who looked like a completely different person, Jiang Pengji said, "You're out …"
Suppressing the primary personality in an instant, this secondary personality that called itself "Liu Xi" was really tenacious and scheming.
At this moment, Hua Yuan's expression was ferocious. His gaze was fierce, and he let out a beast-like growl from his throat. The retainer reacted and quickly subdued Hua Yuan. How could Hua Yuan, who was almost at the end of his rope, compare to a few strong retainers? Naturally, he was suppressed to the point where he couldn't get up.
"Give it back — give it back to me!!!"
Hua Yuan, no, Liu Xi, the secondary personality, stared at Jiang Pengji's face with hatred and hatred.
Jiang Pengji asked him calmly.
"Return what to you?"
"Return my body to me. I am Liu Xi. I am the ruler of the world. I am … You are not, I am!"
He opened his fingers and tried to grab the corner of Jiang Pengji's clothes, but she looked at him with pity.
"You don't even know who you are. Don't you think that's too sad?"
How could the other party be willing to listen to what she said? He tried for a long time but still couldn't get close. In the end, he could only roar in pain. The red veins that covered his eyes made him look especially terrifying. Even when he was out of control, he was still quite strong. The squire had no choice but to use extreme measures.
One of them pressed down on Hua Yuan's head and forced him to lower his head.
"You monster!!! You've taken over my body! You're the monster!!! "
His voice carried the hoarseness of a wild beast. Even though he was restrained by several subordinates, he still used all of his strength to resist.
"Go catch her!!! She's a monster! "
Lu Zheng and Wei Ci caught up to them. They were so frightened that their breathing was in disorder. Their faces were still full of shock.
"Is the Lord alright? Why did Hua Yuan suddenly lose his mind? "
The scene from before was truly too thrilling. Who could have imagined that Hua Yuan would suddenly launch a sneak attack?
If not for the lord's superb martial arts, she would have been ambushed.
Just thinking about that scene, Wei Ci's face was as pale as a wall that had been painted white.
Jiang Pengji comforted them with a gentle voice.
"Don't worry, a mere madman can't hurt me. Don't you know how powerful I am? "
Not to mention that Jiang Pengji was always on guard, even if she was defenseless, the opponent would not be able to hurt her at all.
Wei Ci secretly glanced at the deranged Hua Yuan and suggested in a low voice.
"Your Highness, you should hand him over to Ci and Shao Yin to deal with."
He still had a lingering fear from the scene just now. He was really worried that something bad would happen again.
Jiang Pengji waved her hand and refused.
She would be even more worried if the two of them were to face the crazy Hua Yuan.
"It doesn't matter. I have something to say to him. I'll be fine after I'm done."
Wei Ci and Shao Yin could not argue with her, so they could only obey her orders and retreat.
Before the entourage retreated, he used hemp rope to tie Hua Yuan up. He used a lot of strength and almost lost a lot of weight.
Jiang Pengji looked at Hua Yuan, who was unable to break free, and the corners of her lips curled into an unfriendly smile.
She used a volume that only the two of them could hear and asked, "You said you are Liu Xi?"
Hua Yuan's second personality stared at Jiang Pengji with a venomous gaze, as if he wanted to use his eyes to kill her.
"I said you are pitiful. You really are pitiful. You've lived such a painful life that you can't tell the real from the fake." Jiang Pengji did not mind. Instead, she smiled and squatted down to eye level with him. "Liu Xi died at the age of 12. The person in front of you who is using the identity of Liu Xi is someone you don't even know. Tell me, are you 'Liu Xi' or the 'me' in front of you? "
This personality, to be precise, should be the "Jiang Pengji" in Hua Yuan's imagination.
The reason why he called himself "Liu Xi" was that Jiang Pengji's real identity had never been made public.
"What do you mean?"
The second personality panted as if he wanted to see through Jiang Pengji's facade.
Jiang Pengji said, "I mean there is no Liu Xi in this world. If there is no Liu Xi, then who are you? "
"You lied to me!"
Jiang Pengji sneered. "Whether I lied to you or not, shouldn't you know best in your heart?"
As she spoke, she reached out and touched the space between his eyebrows with two fingers.
It was a simple action, but it made the other's body tremble uncontrollably.
"What are you trying to do?"
He tried to turn his face away from her hand, but he failed repeatedly.
"Go to sleep. Everything will be over when you wake up."
As soon as she finished speaking, the second personality felt a force pulling him out of his body. His limbs and bones were in excruciating pain.
Demon … sorcery?
After a while, Jiang Pengji's hand clenched into a fist, as if she was holding something in her palm. She exerted a little force and crushed it.
The second personality only had time to let out a short and sharp scream before he quickly calmed down.
After that, Jiang Pengji's gaze did not leave Hua Yuan. She watched as his eyes turned from cloudy to clear and his rationality returned.
When he realized what had happened, Hua Yuan could only smile bitterly.
"I, Master Lanting, have failed to live up to your good intentions."
Jiang Pengji had kindly given him a chance to kill himself to preserve his dignity. She did not expect the second personality to jump out and cause trouble.
After all the twists and turns, she still had to do it herself.
"If there is a next life, open your eyes wide and reincarnate into a good one."
She did not like Hua Yuan, but most of her disgust was directed at the second personality who stirred up trouble.
Compared to her, the main personality was somewhat innocent.
Hua Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Thank you!"
As he was about to die, he did not mourn. Instead, he smiled in relief.
To him, death was liberation and a new lease of life.
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling white light flashed before his eyes. His neck felt slightly cold.
Before he could even feel the pain, his head had already fallen to the ground.
"Go and bury his body. Build a new grave next to his parents'. If we leave him alone, he will most likely become dinner for the beasts nearby. "Jiang Pengji sheathed the God Slaying Sword and ordered her entourage," Gather a complete corpse for him. "
When they descended the mountain, Wei Ci saw that his lord was still pursing her lips. He thought she was still angry about Hua Yuan.
"My lord, you don't seem to be in a good mood … Is it because of Hua Yuan?"
Jiang Pengji said, "Half of it is, and the other half is not."
According to Wei Ci, Hua Yuan had lost his mind in his previous life. However, the fact that he had split into a "Liu Xi" in this life made Jiang Pengji somewhat concerned. She had personally come to take a look, thinking that there would be some clues. She did not expect it to be simple schizophrenia.
