Chapter 1564 Hitting a wall

Fang Zilan's expression was cold. "I am the same age as the Chakravartin among the Ten Kings of Hell. Mine is a plum branch, while Chakravartin's is a sun wheel. Therefore, besides me, the only people who know how to draw a plum branch are the young master and Chakravartin."

"The King of Wheels is far inferior to you, otherwise he wouldn't still be the last of the Ten Kings of Hell." A Wan shook her head. "No matter who buried Cangjian Villa, that person will become notorious and become a figure that people in the martial arts world will be afraid of. You also know that the Ghost Gate has always been proud of being able to make people in the martial arts world tremble in fear. If it was really done by the Ten Kings of Hell, why would they give you such an opportunity to become famous?"

Fang Zilan's lips curled slightly, "Does Little Awan think that I have the ability to kill Master Zhen and everyone in Cangjian Villa?"

"It's not just Master Zhen and the people in Cangjian Villa." A Wan sighed, "I heard that Wan Jun, the young master of Wanhua Villa, was proposing to Master Zhen at Cangjian Villa, intending to marry Master Zhen's only daughter Zhen Mi'er. Therefore, he was also buried in the fire. A few days later, the entire Wanhua Villa was also wiped out, and the only symbol left was your purple plum branch. After two consecutive tragedies, you completely became a big devil that everyone in the world hates to kill, and it's rare to see a big devil in a century. No one has surpassed this reputation so far."

Fang Zilan smiled and frowned, "Wanhua Villa, Wanjun?"

"Although Wanhua Villa is not as famous as Cangjian Villa, it is also a legend in the martial arts world." A Wan opened up and couldn't stop talking. "Wan Jun, the young master of Wanhua Villa, lost his father at a young age and was brought up by his mother. However, all his martial arts and medical skills came from his master, Pharmacist Xu, who was known as the God of Medicine in the martial arts world. Pharmacist Xu was also a strange man. He was a wandering doctor in the martial arts world, and later joined the army to learn martial arts. By chance, he came to Wanhua Villa and became the face of Wanhua Villa."

She paused for a moment, stood up and brought over some tea, handed a cup to Fang Zilan, drank one herself to moisten her throat, and then continued, "However, Pharmacist Xu has a strange personality and rarely goes out. He has only accepted Wan Jun as his apprentice in his life. There are many different opinions in the outside world. Some say that he owes Wanhua Villa a big favor, and some say that he has a secret affair with Madam Wan, otherwise how could he treat Wan Jun as his own son."

There was a hint of disgust in her eyes as she spoke. "If you ask me, those people just can't stand seeing others doing well, and they have to slander and trample on them to feel comfortable. Can't people with strange personalities be noble and righteous? The orphans and widows of Wanhua Mountain Villa were bullied a lot in those years, and none of the heroes who had always been on good terms with them helped them. If it weren't for Pharmacist Xu, Wanhua Mountain Villa would have ceased to exist long ago. It's a pity that Pharmacist Xu passed away early. Although the young master Wanjun was very promising and ambitious at a young age, his death also destroyed the backbone of the entire Wanhua Mountain Villa, and it was only a matter of time before it was destroyed. It's just..."

"It's just that Wanhua Villa was destroyed followed by Cangjian Villa, and it seems more like I was implicated innocently." Fang Zilan added, thoughtfully saying, "I was able to kill Manor Master Zhen and Wan Jun when I was only fourteen or fifteen years old?"

"Although I was young at that time, I have heard how terrible you are." A Wan sat upright, a little further away from her, "You kill people purely on instinct. No skills or tricks exist in front of you. And everyone knows that you are good at wiping out the roots, and you can kill an entire family at once. People in the underworld say that you have killed more people than the ten kings of hell combined."

The elder who governs the rules glared at him, and Fang Lihui smiled frivolously, "Miss Cong hasn't said anything yet, but your uncle is so impatient. Could it be that he knows something?"

The elder who enforced the rules was choked by Fang Lihui and was speechless for a moment. He then continued to ask frivolously, "Or is it that the child in Miss Cong's belly is related to her uncle?"

"Fang Lihui, stop slandering me!" The leading elder who enforced the rules could no longer sit still, and slammed the table and said indignantly: "Everyone knows that you are the most dissolute among the children of the Fang family. Do you know how many romantic debts you have?"

Fang Lihui suddenly laughed out loud, "My fellow uncles, as the elders who enforce the rules of the Fang family, how many romantic debts do I have? I will not escape from acknowledging all that should be acknowledged, but don't even think of putting the debt on my account if it has nothing to do with me. You guys are tired of this all the time, but I am. If there is nothing new, I will not accompany you."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Cong Rong who was still standing in the hall, suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice: "Miss Cong, while I am still able to talk, you'd better tell the truth. Otherwise, if you are brought to court in the future, what will happen to you? Do you need me to tell you?"

The head of the elder who enforces the rules had a flash of shock on his face, and then he said sternly: "Fang Lihui, you actually still want to go to court, you..."

"What about me?" Fang Lihui interrupted him coldly with a look of disdain, "I have a clear conscience and am not afraid of going to court. But you, do you dare?" As soon as he said this, several elders who enforced the rules stared and clenched their fists, but no one dared to speak back.

Seeing this, Fang Zilan, who had been drinking tea in silence, put the teacup heavily on the table. The crisp sound attracted everyone's attention to her again, but she said nonchalantly, "I've finished my tea."

Fang Lihui laughed in silence. Just as he was about to say something, Cong Rong fell to her knees with a plop. "Please, Master Fang, save my family!"

Despite the sudden change, Fang Lihui didn't even raise his eyelids, and calmly instructed the butler beside him to add more tea for Fang Zilan.

Seeing him like this, Cong Rong spoke anxiously, "To be honest, someone threatened my family and asked me to come to the Fang Mansion to cry and slander Mr. Fang. If I didn't come, my family..."

She cried as she spoke, and her words were intermittent and unclear, but Fang Lihui had already made up his mind and asked, "Whose child is the one in your belly?"

Cong Rong suddenly felt like she was hit in a vital spot. She held her stomach tightly and shook her head, saying, "I can't say..."

"Ms. Cong, you can't tell me why I should help you save your family?" Fang Lihui smiled faintly, with an indescribable coldness.

"I..." Cong Rong bit her lips tightly and turned to look at Fang Zilan. She reached out and grabbed Fang Zilan's skirt, but was very careful not to use force, and begged humbly: "Master Fang, I beg you, please help me..."

Fang Zilan was silent for a moment, then asked, "Where are your family members now?"

Seeing that there was hope, Cong Rong hurriedly said, "He is in Qingshui Village outside Beijing, being held by the village head."

Fang Zilan glanced at Awan, and before she could say anything, she stood up and said, "I'll go find Deputy General Cao right away!"

"Master Fang is as helpful as ever." Fang Lihui raised his eyebrows and teased, but Fang Zilan snorted, "If not, why would Master Fang invite me to watch a play?"

Fang Lihui's expression was stern, "Master Fang, I..."

Fang Zilan interrupted him calmly, "I will settle the account with you after I have dealt with Miss Cong's matter."
