"Just now..." Shangguan Jun paused.
"Exactly just now!"
"This..."
"Either tell what happened and hand Yun Xin over to , or... Shangguan Yunduo's illness will not be treated!"
Luo Chao beca very irritable and glared fiercely at Shangguan Jun: "You old ghost! I'm warning you not to threaten anymore. Worse cos to worst, fish perish and the net shatters, don't believe ? Try !"
Shangguan Jun was furious, this little bastard actually dared to curse him, but...
Using the Shangguan family intelligence, he certainly knew that Luo Chao had joined the Iron Sword Sect long ago. He also knew the destruction of the Tongyun Sect was not unrelated to Luo Chao.
Although he wasn't sure how Luo Chao managed to wipe out the Tongyun Sect,
But!
There was one thing Shangguan Jun was very clear about now, that was nowadays Luo Chao was no longer as helpless as he once was; he had a certain strength by his side.
Of course, this power is not enough to make the Shangguan family retreat, but the problem is Shangguan Yunduo's illness still relies on him.
What good is tearing their faces?
"Kid, if you don't clean up your mouth, I'll have you thrown out sideways!" Shangguan Jun said coldly.
"Why don't you try?" Luo Chao retorted.
"Cure Yunduo, I'll tell you... the truth!"
"You..."
Luo Chao was stunned, then stared hard at Shangguan Jun, his voice cold: "I hope you're not lying to ."
He did not say "Why should I believe you" because even if the other party patted their chest and promised, or even swore to heaven on their knees, he would not easily believe them—oaths are the most unreliable.
If Shangguan Jun deceived him, he'd do sothing regrettable to them!
The truth?
When Shangguan Jun said this, Shangguan Yunxin was also stunned.
Recently, she could sense sothing odd from her grandfather's words and expressions, as if...
As the Patriarch of the Shangguan family, there were certain secrets unknown to her.
She could also feel the secrets were related to her sister.
Could it be...
The truth that grandfather ntioned pertains to her sister?
The treatnt began.
This treatnt thod was not new; Luo Chao was already well-versed in it.
The silver needle pierced the Baihui Acupoint, the Power of Water perated the cerebral cortex, then traveled through the neural network deep down, eventually reaching the core area of the brain where the prison of emotional factors was trapped.
After previous multiple treatnts, the prison already had a large crack, and what Luo Chao needed to do was to use this as a foundation to completely shatter the prison.
Using the icy cold Power of Water to freeze it, the prison gradually turned into an ice blue color, the hue deepening and expanding continuously.
Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on Luo Chao's forehead.
Finally, the entire prison was frozen.
Power of Wind!
Suddenly!
The Power of Wind, never used in previous treatnts, infiltrated into the silver needle, traveling to the diseased area.
Power of Wind — Execution!
Target — Prison breach!
Crack...
The Power of Wind transford into a sharp blade, striking the previously damaged crack.
It was as if one could hear the sound of glass shattering, with the breach as the center, dense cracks spread quickly throughout the entire prison.
Splurt!
Shangguan Yunduo suddenly opened her mouth, spurting out a mouthful of blood, her eyes rolling back as she passed out.
"You... Yunduo!" Shangguan Jun's face changed in shock.
"She's fine; she'll recover after so rest." Luo Chao said calmly.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not leaving Bianzhou."
After saying this, Luo Chao stared coldly at Shangguan Jun, "Where is Yun Xin?"
"Are you sure Yunduo is entirely cured?" Shangguan Jun was still uneasy.
"Yes."
"Do you believe in souls?"
Shangguan Jun suddenly asked, not giving the shocked Luo Chao ti to answer, he then inquired: "Do you believe... that two souls can exist in one body?"
Suddenly!
Luo Chao's face turned pale, he abruptly turned his head to look at Shangguan Yunduo who fainted on the chair.
"I think, with your intelligence, you should have already figured it out, perhaps even..."
Shangguan Jun's expression turned a bit forlorn as he murmured, "You might have suspected it before, just didn't think of this aspect, even if you had, you wouldn't dare believe it, right?"
"I still don't believe it now!"
"You say out loud you don't believe, but inside you've already accepted it."
Despite Shangguan Yunduo's recovery, Shangguan Jun appeared more downcast: "You should have realized earlier, Yunduo and Yun Xin have never appeared together. Like you said earlier, Yun Xin used Yunduo's phone to call you, in fact... the phone has always been with Yunduo."
"Then why when Yun Xin contacted before, her phone number was different from Shangguan Yunduo's?!"
"Very simple, because back then, Yunduo and Yun Xin were two people. When she's Yunduo, she uses Yunduo's belongings; when she's Yun Xin, she uses different ones."
However, during the treatnt of Shangguan Yunduo, as the prison was gradually opened, the originally distinct two souls began to be dominated by Shangguan Yunduo.
The key was knowing that the soul belonging to Shangguan Yunxin realized it was disappearing, thus struggling to express its personality, but this ti was very limited, so it could only use that phone to call.
This explains why, as the treatnt showed results, Shangguan Yunxin appeared less and less.
The last ti Shangguan Yunxin called for help was also because she sensed she was disappearing, but she didn't understand why.
There's another thing worth noting!
When Luo Chao fought with the Shangguan family's experts in front of that building, his senses were consistently locked on Shangguan Yunxin inside, it was clear he didn't detect her leaving.
The result, later Shangguan Jun allowed him to enter, but upon entering he didn't find Shangguan Yunxin, instead he saw Shangguan Yunduo!
Neither Shangguan Yunxin nor Shangguan Yunduo knew this secret; they believed there really was a sister or sibling, when in fact... everything was arranged by Shangguan Jun.
"Why? Why deceive them?!" Luo Chao roared vehently.
"Because since childhood Yunduo was so gifted, destined to beco the Patriarch of the Shangguan family. I was uncertain once she knew the truth, what kind of impact it would have—the entire Shangguan family, only a few know the secret."
"Which ans, Yun Xin she..."
"From today, Shangguan Yunxin will cease to exist."
Shangguan Jun stared deeply at Luo Chao, saying: "I will announce Yun Xin's death publicly; your marriage contract with her will also be canceled. From now on, you and my Shangguan family will have no relation."
Luo Chao clenched his fists tightly, he wished he could punch Shangguan Jun dead!
This old bastard!
Turns out it was all a sche from beginning to end!
Forced him to get engaged to Shangguan Yunxin, ostensibly to cleanse the Shangguan family's disgrace, actually just to use him to prepare for Shangguan Yunduo's treatnt.
Once Shangguan Yunduo's illness is cured, it signifies Shangguan Yunxin will vanish, and the marriage contract will automatically be nullified.
Yes!
If the concept of souls is true, it would an this body housed two 'souls'; when one soul is healed, the other would disappear completely!
Shangguan Yunxin pleaded for help over the phone, unaware...
He 'killed' Shangguan Yunxin.
