Chapter 175 Who could it be?
Xie Jingxiu was seriously injured.
This was the news that Zhao Ziyi quietly passed on.
Cen Pianpian was so anxious that she ran to her ancestor and cried for several times, asking her ancestor to tear Cheng Shuyan into pieces to avenge Xie Jingxiu.
However, even Xie Jingxiu's master kept the matter under wraps for the time being, and the ancestor of the Cen family naturally didn't bother to get involved in this trivial matter.
She broke into the Cheng family's residence several times, but was stopped by the guards outside.
"Oh, she showed no mercy when she was plotting to frame Xie Jingxiu, but now that something's happened, she's really getting anxious."
This is what Zhao Ziyi wrote on the note that was passed in.
After reading it, Cheng Shuyan did not comment.
No matter what kind of person Cen Pianpian is, Cheng Shuyan can see her deep love for Xie Jingxiu.
I'm just afraid...
Cen Pianpian is just one of the chess pieces in this game.
She had no idea that her actions would have such serious consequences.
Otherwise, with her love for Xie Jingxiu, she would not have gone to such lengths to use Xie Jingxiu's life to frame Cheng Shuyan.
Jian Qing walked over to sit beside her, looking worried, and said, "Mingshu, if that kid Xie Jingxiu really can't be saved, the Xuanfeng Sect won't let it go. Do you really have a plan?"
Although Cheng Shuyan told them that this was all part of her plan, Jian Qing still couldn't help but worry.
"Don't worry, mother. I have made my own preparations. If the Xuanfeng Sect holds me accountable, you and father won't have to interfere too much."
"Okay, go to bed early." Jian Qing looked at her deeply, said nothing more, and left her room.
Cheng Shuyan sat alone and began to review the whole incident in his mind.
Cen Pianpian is just a chess piece that was pushed out, so who is the person behind the scenes?
The only thing Cheng Shuyan could be sure of was that the person behind the scenes wanted her life, but could not do anything to her for various reasons.
Therefore, she could only rely on Cen Pianpian's help and let Xuanfengmen deal with her.
But when she thought about it, she didn't seem to have such a deep hatred with anyone that would be worth him going to so much trouble to kill her.
Now I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark, which is too passive for her.
The person behind the scenes wanted to use this incident to kill her, so why didn't she want to use this incident to lure that person out?
Her sword strike would not kill Xie Jingxiu, at most it would make him suffer more. When Uncle Shen arrived, he would naturally be able to find a way to cure him.
But since the person behind the scenes wanted her life, he would not just watch Xie Jingxiu survive.
Therefore, the period before Uncle Shen arrived was probably the most dangerous time for Xie Jingxiu.
She just needs to wait patiently for the person behind the scenes to come out.
……
Upon hearing that Xie Jingxiu was seriously injured and that the Cheng family was involved, all parties in the world of immortal cultivation were secretly speculating whether there was any hidden story involved.
The world of cultivating immortals seems calm on the surface, but in fact it is full of turbulent waves in secret.
Naturally, each family sent people over, ostensibly to visit the seriously injured Xie Jingxiu, but in reality they were all there to gather information.
As the eldest brother of this generation of Xuanfeng Sect, Xie Jingxiu was accompanied by people of equal status from all parties.
Naturally, they are the old acquaintances that Cheng Shuyan knows.
Pei Xuan from Zixiao Sect, Meng Tingwan from Tianyin Sect, Lin Ziqi from Luoyang Sect, Song Xu from Tianjian Sect, and Helan Ci from the Helan Family.
The rest are forces that Cheng Shuyan is not very familiar with.
She could understand the others, but Helan Ci was also here, which was something Cheng Shuyan didn't expect.
Based on her understanding of Helan Ci, this man has a cold face and a cold heart, and doesn't seem like someone who would be willing to get involved in these things.
Now she is trapped in the yard and has no idea what is happening in the outside world. She only knows the general idea.
But it seems that nothing important happened, otherwise Zhao Ziyi would find a way to pass the news to her no matter what.
It’s just right to have a lot of people. Only when the water is muddy will people have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
But who would have thought that for several days in a row, Xuanfengmen was calm.
Just when she almost thought that man was going to give up this great opportunity, Cen Pianpian once again came to Cheng Shuyan.
She ran out of the yard angrily, with tears in her eyes, but she did not hide her hatred for Cheng Shuyan.
After the lessons from the previous times, she learned her lesson this time. She no longer thought about breaking in and just stood at the door cursing.
"Cheng Mingshu! You bitch! Brother Jingxiu was so badly injured because of you, how dare you still live!"
When Cheng Shuyan heard the familiar voice, he stretched lazily, then walked to the door with a smile, looking in a good mood.
"What's going on? Junior Sister Cen is so anxious. Is Xie Jingxiu about to die?"
Her appearance made Cen Pianpian even more furious, and he actually drew his sword and pointed it at her.
"You'd better pray that Brother Jingxiu is okay, otherwise I will definitely extract your soul and refine your spirit!"
Oh, do you think she is afraid?
Cheng Shuyan took a few steps forward, his neck resting on Cen Pianpian's sword, and drops of blood dripped down instantly.
"Oh, Junior Sister Cen, please don't get angry. Extracting souls and refining spirits are the methods of demonic cultivators.
You are the most valued disciple of the Cen family. If you become a demon, how will the Cen family maintain their reputation? "
There was no need for Cheng Shuyan to do anything, the guards would naturally stop Cen Pianpian.
"Junior Sister Cen! Don't be impulsive. The Sect Leader has not yet made a decision on this matter. Fellow Daoist Cheng is still an honored guest of our Xuanfeng Sect."
After hearing these words, although Cen Pianpian was unwilling, he could only suppress his anger temporarily and slowly put away the sword in his hand.
However, she did not give up. Instead, she took a step forward, leaned close to Cheng Shuyan's ear, and said in a low voice:
"Oh, Cheng Mingshu, listen carefully! You can still survive in this tortoise shell today, but don't get complacent too soon.
One day, I will tear you into pieces and leave you with no place to bury your body!"
Her voice, filled with resentment, sounded like a demon from the Netherworld, making one shudder.
Although her voice was soft, everyone was a cultivator and naturally had sharp ears and eyes, so they heard everything she said clearly.
Even the guards couldn't help but feel frightened when they heard her malicious tone.
After Cen Pianpian finished speaking harshly, without waiting for others to react, she turned around and left in the direction where Xie Jingxiu was.
Cheng Shuyan looked at her back and a sneer came out of her mouth.
When did Cen Pianpian become like this?
She had never noticed before that the aura lingering in Cen Pianpian's body was so similar to Xie Jingxiu's.
The man behind the scenes...
It seems that this is not the only time he wants to take her life.
That person had even existed since her previous life.
So, the reason why Xie Jingxiu killed her family on their wedding day was also that person's doing?
That person probably realized for some reason that she was not really dead, but lived again in this life with her memories, so he started planning to kill her again.
Things are really getting more and more interesting...
