Chapter 156 I Hate You
Chapter 156 I Hate You
Ning Xinian fainted after saying this, blood flowing from his nose and eyes, seemingly because he could not withstand the immense power.
"What do you mean?" He Jingtang couldn't help but ask, "Does it mean we've been wronging Him all along?"
He had always known about the mysterious deity that Song Baiyuan worshipped, and he believed that the series of suicides within the company were definitely related to this cult.
But now it seems this "god" is implying that they were deceived by a fraudster?
"Uncle, can you tell us the whole story of how you met that master?" Yan Xun still remembered Lou Yanchuan telling his uncle that his parents suffered such a misfortune because they had abandoned their faith.
Song Baiyuan no longer knew what was real and what was fake. Many images flashed through his mind, and in the end, he recounted his first encounter with the "master" in detail.
“However, the serial suicides have nothing to do with me.” Song Baiyuan rubbed his forehead. “I know you don’t believe me, but I find this matter very strange.”
After a moment of silence, He Jinqiu finally spoke of her "older brother" at home.
As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Yan Xun, as if worried that Yan Xun would not be able to accept such a strange thing happening in her home.
Little did they know that in another timeline, it was Yan Xun who discovered this matter.
After hearing the whole story, He Jingtang was even more dumbfounded. "So your family also encountered this master?"
"Isn't that really strange?"
"What else did you do?" He Jingtang looked at Song Baiyuan again. "You'd better tell me everything."
“How could I possibly do something like murder for money?” Song Baiyuan scratched his head, seemingly surprised that this matter could uncover so many secrets. “I just followed that swindler’s instructions and placed some specific things downstairs in the company building and in other places he specified.”
“You guys…” He looked at the five people in the group, “You guys were all chosen by him.”
"No??" He Jingtang couldn't understand. "You just believed him just like that?"
“If someone gives you instructions and you always get something in return, you'd believe them too,” Song Baiyuan said calmly. “Besides, aren't you guys famous now?”
Yan Xun carefully considered the course of events.
The master first appeared before He Jinqiu was born. He mentioned Jia Ye's faith and also buried He Jinqiu's brother underground.
The second time was after his parents died, when he said that his parents had betrayed their faith and that Song Baiyuan needed to atone for their sins according to Jia Ye's requirements.
According to the meaning of "Jia Ye", He is a god who sees through the truth, and defiled beliefs will make it difficult for Him to descend and will be hindered.
It means that Lou Yanchuan had always known of the existence of the deity Jiaye, but in order to prevent the deity from descending, he used some evil methods to corrupt the mortals' faith in Jiaye, making it difficult for the deity to come to the mortal world.
Considering that Lou Yanchuan frequently visits Song Baiyuan's office... and that there seems to be a mysterious belief within the company.
Yan Xun thought for a moment—
"So, the Fairy Bodhi collaborated with this swindler, using evil methods to steal part of Jia Ye's faith. It's like transferring your faith in Jia Ye to the Fairy Bodhi?"
As Yan Xun finished speaking, he noticed that his task progress bar had started to spike.
[Hidden Quest: Jia Ye's Gaze (5/5)]
The task of Jia Ye's watchful gaze has been fully completed.
Once the hidden quest is completed, Yan Xun can leave the instance at any time.
But he still couldn't understand why Lou Yanchuan would do this.
Yan Xun wanted to continue thinking, but then his assistant, Xiao Zheng, called him, saying that he had an urgent matter on his end and asked if Yan Xun could come over.
Xiao Zheng's voice was stammering, and he sounded very nervous.
"What time is it."
Xiao Zheng gave a time and place.
"You must come alone."
Yan Xun said, "Okay."
He hung up the phone and saw that everyone in the room was looking at him—
“This is definitely a trap!” He Jingtang disagreed.
"Why would Xiao Zheng suddenly call you over?"
Song Baiyuan also felt it was very dangerous, especially since Xiao Zheng's phone call came at such a convenient time.
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing," Yan Xun said.
He Jinqiu looked at him and said, "I'll go with you."
"No need, I'll be back soon," Yan Xun said after thinking for a moment.
With one hand in a cast, Mu Yuanming glanced at Yan Xun a few times before turning his gaze away. "Go quickly and come back quickly."
Yan Xun put his phone in his pocket, walked to the gate, glanced back at them, and said, "Let's go."
……
The address Yan Xun took a taxi to.
That place was none other than the top floor of the brokerage firm's building.
It took him quite a bit of effort just to get around the security guards to the top floor. When he got there, he saw Xiao Zheng timidly hiding in a corner, and Lou Yanchuan smiling and waving at him.
Yan Xun ignored Xiao Zheng and walked straight to Lou Yanchuan. "Did you also orchestrate the serial suicides?"
Lou Yanchuan made a shushing gesture.
He seemed to be listening to something, and soon he said to Yan Xun, "I just fulfilled their wish."
He took out his phone and showed Yan Xun a video.
'Why can anyone do anything if they're red?'
The man in the video looked familiar; he was a man who had appeared in the previous series of suicides.
"Of course! Anything is fine!"
'As long as I can become famous.'
The scene quickly changed; it was still the same person, but with a terrified expression—
'Money? Or something else? Can you change your request? Anything but this is fine!'
However, as he spoke, his body moved uncontrollably towards death. Even before he died, he shouted "For Jia Ye!" as if he were a puppet.
Lou Yanchuan watched for a while, and seeing that Yan Xun's face was expressionless, he also stopped smiling. "It's boring."
"I killed Fairy Bodhi, and you don't even care?" Yan Xun asked, raising his eyes.
"What's there to care about?" Lou Yanchuan said, and in Yan Xun's sight, he jumped onto the edge of the top floor.
He just stood there, arms outstretched, thinking, "She's going to die sooner or later anyway."
“She absorbed the power she stole from Jia Ye…” Lou Yanchuan gestured as if a balloon was inflating and bursting, “and then she was burst to death.”
Yan Xun truly didn't understand this person anymore.
It seems that Lou Yanchuan is the final boss of this instance.
He originally thought that Lou Yanchuan deliberately plotted to seize Jia Ye's power in order to make himself stronger.
Judging from the other party's attitude, he seemed to not care about this matter at all.
"You seem strange?" Lou Yanchuan stood at the edge, looking down at Yan Xun.
"It is a bit strange."
Yan Xun said.
Lou Yanchuan looked like he was about to cry. "Brother, I did it all for you."
Just as Yan Xun was about to say not to get too close, he suddenly felt someone approaching from behind. He turned around and saw Xiao Zheng crying as she plunged a knife into her own body—
"Yan Xun... I hate you..."
Xiao Zheng cried loudly as he stabbed the knife into Yan Xun's body.
"Only when you die will you not be with anyone else."
