Yi Fenyun originally did not want Xue Fanxin to know that it was him and did not want her to see him like this, but things were not as he had expected. Not only had his identity been recognized, but even Xue Fanxin knew about him.
He was indeed not of the Yi family’s bloodline, so he had been destroyed and abandoned by the Yi family. His cultivation had been crippled, his meridians had all been broken, his dantian had been destroyed, and he had been infected with the plague poison.
Initially, he wanted to die, but he was unwilling. He hated, hated the ruthlessness of the Yi family. He wanted revenge and wanted to destroy the Yi family.
Even if he and his father were not of the Yi family’s bloodline, he and his father had been doing their best for the Yi family for so many years. The father and son had sacrificed so much, and even if they did not contribute, they had suffered. However, the Yi family did not give them any face and forced them to die.
His father had died in the Yi family’s dungeon and had been tortured to death.
His other relatives were almost all dead. If not for the sudden appearance of the plague poison, even if he was already a cripple, the Yi family would not have let him off so easily.
He had thought that he would die from the plague poison, but there is always a way out. At this moment, the Ninth Lord’s Estate released the news that they would distribute the antidote for the plague poison for free.
Hence, he came. No matter how much he did not want Xue Fanxin to see him like this, he had to come.
This was because he wanted to live. Only by living could he take revenge.
Xue Fanxin could tell that Yi Fenyun was embarrassed and feeling inferior at this moment, so she slowly guided him. “Yi Fenyun, do you still remember the peach blossom pastry?”
This was the second time Yi Fenyun had heard Xue Fanxin mention the peach blossom pastry. Previously, he had not felt much, but now, he felt that something was wrong. He slowly raised his head and asked, “Why are you mentioning the peach blossom pastry again?”
“Your injuries are not light. There are many problems of all sizes. You need to be treated quickly. Let’s go to the residence. I’ll tell you about the peach blossom pastry as I treat you. How about that? Mother Ruan, Liu Qing, quickly prepare the guest room and let my friend stay. Also, get me some food and drinks.”
“Yes.” Mother Ruan and Liu Qing immediately went to do their work and prepared a guest room.
Xue Fanxin personally brought Yi Fenyun into the residence. “Follow me. If you still treat me as a friend, then don’t reject me.”
Yi Fenyun originally only wanted to get the antidote and leave, but now that his identity had been exposed and he had been seen by Xue Fanxin, although he was a little troubled and embarrassed, he still followed Xue Fanxin into the Ninth Lord’s Estate.
Because he really wanted to know about the peach blossom pastry.
When Yi Fenyun followed Xue Fanxin into the Ninth Lord’s Estate, the spies outside the Lord’s Estate immediately returned to report. One of the spies went to the palace, and the other went to the Yi family.
The Yi family’s spies reported everything that had happened outside the Ninth Lord’s Estate.
Upon learning of this, the Yi family head and elders were shocked.
“What did you say? Yi Fenyun actually knows Xue Fanxin?”
“What’s so strange about Yi Fenyun knowing Xue Fanxin? Back in the Heavenly Saint Empire, Xue Fanxin was involved with the branches of the four great clans over there and had a good relationship with them. It’s said that when Xue Fanxin left the Heavenly Saint Empire, she gave out pills wantonly. Just the ones she gave Yi Fenyun were quite a few. Fortunately, Yi Qingshan and Yi Fenyun didn’t hide anything from the Yi family and handed over all those pills.”
So what if Yi Qingshan and Yi Fenyun handed over those pills? As long as they were not of the Yi family’s bloodline, they deserved to die.
Although Yi Qingshan and Yi Fenyun were only from the collateral branch, they knew quite a few of the Yi family’s secrets, so they had no choice but to die.
