The bullet squeezed out of the hole and fell to the floor with a crisp sound.

Immediately afterwards...

Jonathan's eyes snapped open, and he abruptly sat up from the floor, gasping for breath as if he had been pulled out of the water.

"Thick and greasy Xie Te!"

Seeing this, Cipher was completely shocked. She stared at Jonathan, who had come back to life before her eyes, and looked at Luke in disbelief: "What the hell? How could this be?"

Luke's mind stirred slightly, but he did not answer Seifer.

He did think of a possibility.

Fountain of Youth.

Considering that the O'Connor family was involved in the story of defeating their lovely and charming ancestor, and that the O'Connor family members do not seem to have aged, the answer is easy to guess.

The execution just now was simply to verify this point.

Luke got up from the sofa, walked over to the resurrected Jonathan, reached out his right hand, grabbed Jonathan by the neck, lifted him off the floor, and looked at Jonathan, who was now looking at him with eyes full of fear as if he were a demon. He smiled and said, "You two must have soaked in the Fountain of Youth."

Upon hearing this, Jonathan looked at the expression in Luke's eyes and his fear intensified.

Luke's lips curled up in a smile.

at the same time.

Rick O'Connor, Evelyn O'Connor, Alex, and Lin from the O'Connor family also squeezed out the bullets one after another, opening their eyes and panting heavily as if they had been pulled out of the water.

then……

They were completely dumbfounded when they saw that instead of being thrown off the plane after they died, they were left standing there.

Because they understand.

Their biggest secret has been completely exposed.

Unlike the O'Connor family, whose faces were filled with fear, the Hydra agents on the plane, including Cipher, were staring at O'Connor and his group with fanatical eyes.

the reason is simple.

If the O'Connor family could be brought back to life, then why can't they?

Cipher's eyes shone even brighter.

Immortality may not be very appealing to women, but if you add "ageless" before "immortal," then the allure is off the charts.

Cipher's gaze fell on Luke, who was wiping his hands, having just led Jonathan upstairs, and was now coming down the stairs alone.

“Lu Ke…”

"The Fountain of Youth has been taken back to Tarot by Zi Yuan."

Knowing what Cipher wanted to ask, Luke gave him the answer he wanted, then sat back down on the sofa. He continued wiping the bloodstains from his hands with a towel, then said to a Hydra agent, "Go upstairs to the bathroom, clean it up, and throw it out."

One Hydra agent nodded and turned to walk upstairs with another Hydra agent.

Evelyn O'Connor looked at the missing sign of her brother, then at the bloodstains on Luke's hands, and after hearing Luke's words just now, she seemed to realize something, and her voice began to tremble uncontrollably: "What did you do to Jonathan?"

Luke smiled slightly and looked at Evelyn: "Naturally, we should send him to where he should have gone long ago. That place is hell."

Evelyn's eyes narrowed.

The reason he was so certain that the Fountain of Youth had been brought back to the Tarot Dimension by Zi Yuan, who was also Ying Nan, was because he had already learned this from Jonathan's soul.

Back then, the O'Connor family helped Zi Yuan, also known as Ying Nan, deal with the Dragon Emperor. In return, Ying Nan not only gave his daughter to the O'Connor family as their daughter-in-law, but also invited them to share the Fountain of Youth.

Afterwards, the O'Connor family, having bathed in the Fountain of Youth, returned to London, while Zi Yuan returned to the Tarot Dimension with the Eye of Shangri-La containing the Fountain of Youth.

Of course.

Luke also learned something else from Jonathan's memories.

That is……

"You have no idea where the tarot is."

"..."

Upon hearing Luke's words, Lynn O'Connor couldn't help but pause for a moment.

After Luke noticed this, he glanced at the O'Connor family and said in a calm tone, "In that case, you are of no use to me. Execution by firing squad can bring you back to life, but beheading is not an option, just like how you cut off the Dragon Emperor's head back then."

The words fell.

The O'Connors fell completely still.

next second.

As Luke nodded, the Hydra agent beside them, whose gun was once again pointed at them, was about to say something when he suddenly died.

ten minutes later.

The hatch at the bottom of the air fortress opened, and just as the air fortress was about to fly into the airspace of the Eastern Kingdom, several unidentified objects crashed down onto the sea below like objects thrown from a high altitude.

Twenty minutes later.

Luke, who was sitting on the sofa, opened his eyes again. After asking Hela to extract the memories of the others, he now knew what had happened back then.

Simply put.

This is a very cliché story, and it's completely different from the story Jonathan remembered hearing.

Back then, Zi Yuan, also known as Ying Nan, was the gatekeeper of the Tarot dimension.

However, just like Yingli, who fell in love with Wenwu and eventually eloped with him, Yingnan, who was a gatekeeper back then, also fell in love with a Dragon Kingdom general named Lin, and later eloped with him as well.

The couple later had a daughter named Lina, who is now known as Lin O'Connor.

But like all sects, they require their saintess to be a Tarot dimension who cannot marry. Knowing this, they found Yingnan, who had changed her name to Ziyuan, and gave her two choices.

Either die, or help them retrieve the Eye of Shangri-La, containing the Fountain of Youth, which the Dragon Emperor obtained during his conquest of the Dian Kingdom.

Zi Yuan agreed, but when she stole the Eye of Shangri-La, she was discovered by the Dragon Emperor.

General Lin pleaded desperately, hoping to exchange his life for the Dragon Emperor's forgiveness.

The Dragon Emperor agreed.

But Zi Yuan disagreed.

She cast a curse, turning the Dragon Emperor, who had just obtained the Fountain of Youth, into a terracotta warrior. The soldiers who had submitted to the Dragon Emperor also turned into terracotta warriors.

But the Eye of Shangri-La was buried underground along with the Dragon Emperor.

In order to regain the chance to return to the Tarot dimension, Zi Yuan searched desperately for a way to break the deadlock. She finally found a solution and, with the help of the O'Connor family, completely destroyed the Dragon Emperor. Then, she returned to the Tarot with the Eye of Shangri-La.

The reason she didn't bring her daughter Lina back to Tarot is actually quite simple.

Zi Yuan dared not.

Because she found the Fountain of Youth for the Tarot Dimension, she could be absolved of the sin of marrying a saint, but she could not be absolved of the sin of giving birth to a daughter.

Once the Tarot Dimension finds out she has a daughter, her fate will be the same as Yingli's now.

That is……

dead!

……

Chapter 323 The Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend (Second Update!)

Yes.

She will die.

Zi Yuan, also known as Ying Nan, entrusted her daughter Lin Na to the O'Connor family for this reason, instead of taking Lin Na back to Tarot.

Because if the people of the Tarot Dimension discover that their saintess has had children with someone outside, then her only fate is death.

Xu Wenwu's wife, Yingli, one of the gatekeepers of the Tarot and Yingnan's younger sister, is the best example of this.

Yingli was found by the Tarot Dimension after eloping with Xu Wenwu. It was discovered that she had given birth to a son and a daughter for Xu Wenwu and did not intend to kill him. Therefore, the people of the Tarot Dimension disguised her as Xu Wenwu's enemy and assassinated her.

This explains why Yingli, who was able to fight Xu Wenwu to a standstill, was unexpectedly defeated.

Because the one who killed Yingli wasn't some nobody at all, but someone from the Tarot Dimension.

only……

Tsk tsk.

The people in the Tarot dimension don't have the guts to directly confront Xu Wenwu, but they have the guts to assassinate his wife.

Lu Ke shook his head, somewhat amused by this thought.

moment.

His initial indifference towards this tarot dimension quickly turned sour, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust.

It wasn't just because this Tarot dimension ruined the Dragon Emperor's desire for immortality, but also because this Tarot dimension enjoyed making things difficult for women.

"Fortunately."

"I'm not going there to make friends."

"Ah."

Lu Ke thought to himself.

at this time.

After Cipher, who had been directing his men to clean up the bloodstained sofa opposite him, sat down again, he glanced at Luke, who was shaking his head and chuckling to himself, and frowned: "Actually, you should have spared their lives, darling."

Luke snapped out of his daze and looked at Cipher.

"reason?"

"Even if she doesn't know about the entrance, using her as a hostage is probably better than beheading her."

Meeting Luke's gaze, Cipher said rationally, "Keeping her alive is more useful than killing her."

Lu Ke shook his head in disagreement: "Theoretically speaking, yes, but she has no value to me. In fact, killing her would be more useful to me than keeping her alive."

It is true that Lin Na is Ying Nan's daughter.
