The Hidden Truth
It was late at night.
Dark clouds covered the sky and the night was silent.
Because of the fight, the lights in the pavilion were dim. When they shone on the Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone, it reflected a soft seven-colored light. Chang Mingyang's pupils shrank.
"Who did Chang Chixiao get this Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone?" Chu Xingyun's voice woke Chang Mingyang up.
"The Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone is a cultivation treasure. Because of the Ancient Star Sect's control, it's very rare. A few years ago, the Wanjian Pavilion cooperated with the Ancient Star Sect. This Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone came from then."
Chang Mingyang was very careful with his words. He shook his head and said, "I don't know who made it. If Sword Master Luo Yun needs Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stones, I can do my best to help you collect them. I will not disappoint you!"
Hearing this, Chu Xingyun's smile became even wider.
He knew that Chang Mingyang was lying. He wanted to hide the origin of the Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone. However, Chu Xingyun was happy to see that.
Only when there was a secret could there be an inside story.
If the origin of the Seven Star Spirit Accumulating Stone was clean, why would Chang Mingyang lie?
Chang Mingyang stared at Chu Xingyun. He didn't know what Chu Xingyun was thinking. He kept a smile on his face and seized every chance to live.
Then, Chu Xingyun suddenly moved.
He reached out his right hand and pinched his fingers in the air. With the sound of Spiritual Energy breaking through the air, he tore Chang Mingyang's clothes apart and landed on his chest.
In an instant, a shrill wail was heard. It sounded like it came from the depths of hell. It was enough to make one's hair stand on end.
Chang Mingyang's face was filled with pain. He fell to the ground and kept rolling. On his chest, there was a thumb-sized wound. However, there were a few weak threads of spiritual power connecting his internal organs.
When he moved, all his internal organs moved. Even the meridians in his body were connected to this point.
"This finger technique is called Heart Ripping Finger."
Chu Xingyun's voice was cold as he said, "As long as I lightly touch the wound, the threads of spiritual energy will continuously pull at your internal organs and even tear a small wound in your heart. Although it will be extremely painful, it won't be life-threatening."
"Three days ago, I also used the Heart Tearing Finger on that tall and sturdy man. He focused on cultivating his body, and his will was as strong as a rock. He lasted for a total of ten attacks, and then he begged me to kill him. I'm very curious, how long can you last?"
His casual voice made Chang Mingyang hold his breath.
Almost in an instant, his mind collapsed. He knelt on the ground and wailed, "Sword Master Luo Yun, I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything. Please don't do it."
"That's good." Chu Xingyun retracted his finger and looked calmly at Chang Mingyang. He said, "Speak. Tell me everything. If there are any lies, I don't mind doing it again."
Chang Mingyang listened with cold sweat. His heart was about to burst out of his body.
One had to know that there was a spiritual array around the pavilion that completely isolated it from the outside world. No matter how loud his wail was, no one would hear it, let alone help him.
If he wanted to live, he could only do as Chu Xingyun said!
"This Seven Star Spirit Stone was made by the Pavilion Master," Chang Mingyang said in a low voice.
"Fan Wujie?"
Chu Xingyun was stunned.
He roughly knew what happened back then from Chang Mingyang. This time, he interrogated Chang Mingyang because he wanted to know who the Ancient Star Sect sent.
But he didn't expect that this Seven Star Spirit Stone was made by Fan Wujie.
"Could it be that Fan Wujie also made a move?" Chu Xing Yun murmured to himself. However, there was no expression on his face. He sat down and calmly listened to the conversation. His expression did not change.
Seeing that Chu Xingyun was silent, Chang Mingyang continued, "The origin of this matter started eighteen years ago. At that time, the Ancient Star Sect's number one beauty, Liu Mengyan, was forced to marry the son of the Ancient Star Sect's Sect Leader because of her family's order. But this woman was unyielding and didn't agree to this marriage at all. In a rage, she left the Ancient Star Sect and fled to Wanjian Pavilion."
Chu Xingchen had also said this, so Chu Xingyun's expression was calm after hearing it.
But Chang Mingyang's next words made his expression freeze.
"After Liu Mengyan fled to Wanjian Pavilion, Fan Wujie was naturally the first to know about it. At that time, Fan Wujie's son was young and vigorous. He also took a liking to Liu Mengyan and asked Fan Wujie to marry Liu Mengyan using the marriage alliance as an excuse."
"The moment this news was released, the two large factions were shaken. Because of this, some fights even broke out. In the end, both parties chose to agree. After all, to the two large factions, one is the son of the pavilion chief, while the other is the top genius of the Ancient Star Sect. This marriage will definitely allow the two large factions to end their fight and form the strongest alliance that will benefit each other."
"And then?" Chu Xingyun urged. His face was gloomy.
It turned out that after Liu Mengyan escaped from the Ancient Star Sect, she was treated this way.
She was forced to marry the Ancient Star Sect's son for the sake of the Liu family's benefit. She left the Ancient Star Sect in a fit of anger.
After coming to Wanjian Pavilion, she was taken a liking to again.
In the end, for the sake of the alliance between Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect, she was forced to marry Fan Wujie's son. Once again, she became a tool for power and a sacrifice.
Such a life was completely controlled by others. There was no freedom to speak of!
"Back then, in order to avoid the marriage, Liu Mengyan left the Ancient Star Sect. This time, she naturally wouldn't compromise, so she ran away again. In the process of running away, she killed the Sect Leader's son!"
Chang Mingyang took a deep breath and said slowly, "Because of this, the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect were completely shaken. Both sides sent out countless experts to track down Liu Mengyan's whereabouts. However, this was a family scandal after all. Both sides didn't publicize it. Everything was carried out in secret."
"Liu Mengyan was originally a genius. She knew the ins and outs of the two big forces, so she hid very well. About a year later, the two big forces found out that she was hiding in the Liuyun Dynasty and had already married someone else. She even gave birth to a bastard child."
"In order to prevent Liu Mengyan from escaping again, the two big forces joined forces and set up an inescapable net. First, they took over the Liuyun Dynasty to prevent any news from spreading. Then, they captured Liu Mengyan. As for Liu Mengyan's husband, he was also your target to capture and even kill. Am I right?" Chu Xingyun's voice was trembling.
This was the truth back then!
What Chu Xingchen knew was only a part of it!
"In name, Liu Mengyan had already married into the Wanjian Pavilion. As for Liu Mengyan's husband, the Pavilion Master naturally wanted to kill him. However, in the end, Liu Mengyan forced him to kill himself to save the bastard child's life."
"Other than the bastard child, everyone else involved died, including Liu Mengyan's husband. He also died an unnatural death. I heard that even his corpse wasn't complete. He was chopped into thousands of pieces."
Since he had already decided to tell the truth, Chang Mingyang didn't hide anything and told him everything.
Chu Xingyun's face was stiff. He could imagine the bloody scene in his mind.
Now it seemed that Liu Mengyan had already expected this scene. That was why she took the risk and used the "Frost Sealing Spirit Sun Array" to completely freeze Chu Xingchen.
The person who was chopped into pieces was only a substitute.
After a moment of silence.
