Chapter 285: Chapter 285: Xia Xin is Injured
Jiangli had not yet spoken when Daoist Changmin had already drawn the horsetail whisk he was carrying on his back and swiftly lashed it toward Jiangli’s face.
He struck with decisive cruelty, not giving Jiangli a chance to react, as if he wanted to slap Jiangli’s face.
Jiangli’s eyes darkened as she was about to raise her hand, but suddenly a cry of alarm came from the side.
"Ancestor, be careful!"
Before Jiangli could act, there was darkness before her eyes, and someone rushed over.
The next second.
There was a loud smack.
The horsetail whisk in Daoist Changmin’s hand had struck someone’s face.
Jiangli looked at Xia Xin in front of her, her expression darkening as she grabbed Xia Xin and examined his face.
Daoist Changmin’s strike was vicious. Although it was just a horsetail whisk, it left several long gashes on Xia Xin’s face.
Xia Xin was somewhat dazed. Seeing Jiangli staring at him, he hurriedly covered his face.
But as soon as he touched the wound, he couldn’t help but scream in pain, "It hurts!"
Jiangli’s face darkened as she said, "Are you stupid? Do I need you to protect me?"
Xia Xin was startled by her words and stared at Jiangli for a few seconds before feigning stupidity with a smile, "Right, right... Ancestor, you’re so powerful..."
"If you don’t feel like smiling, then don’t. It’s hideous."
Jiangli rolled her eyes at him and pushed him behind her, her cold, knife-like eyes falling on Daoist Changmin.
With an expressionless face, she asked, "Whose disciple are you, and who is your master?"
Daoist Changmin looked up, about to offer a sarcastic retort, but upon meeting Jiangli’s eyes, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat and contract rapidly, as if it had been placed in an ice cellar, contracting instantly due to the cold.
It was as if his entire being was being seized.
For some reason, Daoist Changmin began to feel a trace of fear toward Jiangli.
"Why should I tell you? You, who tarnish the reputation of Xuanmen, are not worthy of knowing my master’s name."
Daoist Changmin glared, his demeanor ferocious, yet his voice considerably weaker.
It was clear he was bluffing, strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Hearing this, Jiangli didn’t get angry. Instead, she laughed.
Seeing her sudden laughter, Daoist Changmin felt uneasy. He opened his mouth, intending to speak.
But Jiangli simply said, "You won’t talk, is that it? Fine, I’ll do it for you."
Daoist Changmin’s heart skipped a beat, "What... what are you going to say..."
"Didn’t you call me a fraud? Then let me do a divination for you, shall we?"
There was a flicker of dark light in Jiangli’s eyes.
Daoist Changmin’s heart hammered in his chest.
Before he could speak, Jiangli fixed her gaze on him and approached step by step.
"You are an orphan, who lost your parents early and were raised in a relative’s home. But due to your fascination with fire, you caused a fire at home, resulting in the death of your relative’s child. Afterwards, you blamed him, claiming he was responsible for setting the fire! Since childhood, you’ve been ruthless, venomous like a snake or scorpion, never hesitating to harm others. Apart from that child, after joining the Taoist Temple, you often deceived people, selling things worth one coin for a sky-high price. Moreover, three years ago, you caused the ruin of a family, leaving them destitute and dead! At that time, the woman was pregnant, and you told her husband that based on his face, he should be childless, incapable of having offspring! Believing his wife had been unfaithful, in a fit of rage, he killed her and the unborn child. Later, after a police investigation, it was discovered the child was indeed his! Yet you couldn’t be convicted by the law; do you think nothing happened? Who gave you the audacity?"
"You..."
Daoist Changmin’s heart pounded with terror, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.
"How... how did you know..."
These were his darkest secrets.
How did Jiangli know?
The onlookers around them, upon hearing Jiangli’s words, were left in shock, initially unsure about the truth.
But with Daoist Changmin’s outburst, everyone knew that Jiangli must be right.
