Chapter 138

Lin Zaozao's analysis made Ji Fantian's expression stunned again.

Although Lin Zaozao didn't guess completely right, it was about eighty or ninety percent correct.

"Ji Fantian, looking at your expression, I think my guess must be about right! I don't want to guess anymore now, can you tell me the identities of Gu Shan and Ruo Qiu? I want to know."

Facing Lin Zaozao's serious gaze, Ji Fantian took a deep breath and said seriously:

"Zaozao, Ye Yi is the Third Prince of Canglan Country, Xiao Liuli is the Fifth Prince. As for Ruo Qiu, he is the richest man in Canglan Country, as well as the young master of the Canglan Country's top shop.

As for Gu Shan, he is..."

Before Ji Fantian could finish speaking, Xiao Taohua interrupted:

"Gu Shan was originally cultivated by the royal families of Canglan and Fengshuo with the financial power of both countries as the sharpest human-shaped killer.

However, Gu Shan didn't want to keep killing people and be an emotionless human-shaped killer. So with Ye Yi's help, he did his best to escape from the Purgatory Valley controlled by Canglan and Fengshuo."

After Gu Shan escaped from Purgatory Valley, he quickly established his Eighteen Floors in the Jianghu, and was known in the Jianghu as the Demon Venerable."

Xiao Taohua's words made Lin Zaozao's eyes wide open in surprise.

"Xiao Taohua, are you saying my cute Gu Shan is a human-shaped killer, or the Demon Venerable in the Jianghu?"

"That's right. Zaozao, are you scared?"

Facing Xiao Taohua's mocking gaze, Lin Zaozao only felt sad.

No wonder Gu Shan said he had eaten human flesh before. What kind of environment would force him to eat human flesh!

Thinking of this, Lin Zaozao felt extremely distressed.

Under normal circumstances, who would be willing to become a human-shaped killer, and who would want to eat human flesh!

Also, the Purgatory Valley that Xiao Taohua mentioned must not be a good place.

It seems that when she becomes the Empress of Han Country, if there is a chance, she should deal with that Purgatory Valley!

"Gu Shan must have suffered a lot in that damn Purgatory Valley!"

Lin Zaozao bit her lip and said coldly.

"That's right. Gu Shan was the sharpest killer forged by Canglan and Fengshuo. But he defected during a mission.

As a traitor, how could the Queens of Canglan and Fengshuo let him live?

If it wasn't for Ye Yi, Gu Shan would have died when he defected."

After Xiao Taohua finished speaking, his eyes were full of lingering fear.

When he first started roaming the Jianghu, if Gu Shan hadn't helped him, he would have been tricked into Purgatory Valley.

Purgatory Valley is exactly like its name, a human purgatory. If he had really walked into Purgatory Valley that year, with his skills at the time, he didn't even know if he could make it out alive.

While Gu Shan was not only able to come out alive, he was at the top of the list. He could even escape with so many top killers under the surveillance of Canglan and Fengshuo.

Those means and guts were really beyond ordinary people!

It was a pity that Gu Shan, Ye Yi and others had the same fatal weakness - their brothers, living and dead.

The killers in Eighteen Floors who were like neither living people nor dead people forced Gu Shan to only passively maneuver between Canglan and Fengshuo.

Seeing Xiao Taohua's gloomy expression, Lin Zaozao sighed slightly and looked at Ji Fantian in puzzlement and asked:

"Ji Fantian, there is one thing I just don't understand. Among you five, Ye Yi is the Third Prince of Canglan with power in his hands, Murong Hai has military power, Ruo Qiu has money, Gu Shan can gain the upper hand for you in assassinations with his skills. As for your medical skills, they are the safeguard for your rebellion.

You seemed to have all the necessary conditions for a rebellion, so how did you fail?"

Facing Lin Zaozao's confusion, Ji Fantian couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Zaozao, when we launched the coup, we all softened our hearts!"

Ji Fantian's words made Lin Zaozao's eyes wide open in surprise.

"What did you say? You softened your hearts during the coup?!!!"

Hearing Lin Zaozao's sharply raised voice, Ji Fantian didn't even have the courage to raise his head at this moment.

"No, how can I say this about you guys! Since you were rebelling, how could you soften your hearts!

Let me tell you, being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. Being able to soften your hearts during a rebellion, I am really convinced by you five guys!"

Seeing Ji Fantian's silent appearance, she couldn't help but continue:

"Ji Fantian, once you decided to rebel, you should have been mentally prepared. Once the rebellion fails, all the people behind you will suffer. For example, your Divine Doctor Clan, Murong Hai’s family, etc.

In matters of life and death, how could you soften your hearts! Those who accomplish great things, how can they care about personal feelings!"

Hearing Lin Zaozao's unrelenting words, Ji Fantian thought for a while before explaining:

"Zaozao, by the time we reached the last step, our loved ones had been controlled by the Queen of Canglan. Once we made any moves, our loved ones would undoubtedly die.

Behind us five people, including relatives, there are over ten thousand people. The lives of ten thousand people were held in the hands of the Queen of Canglan. How could we bear to sacrifice them?

So, we only hesitated for a moment, and the situation reversed, our rebellion failed."

Seeing Ji Fantian's lost expression, Lin Zaozao couldn't help sighing deeply. From a rational point of view, if it had really reached that critical point for the greater good, Ye Yi and the others should indeed have sacrificed a small number of people to salvage the situation.

But it was understandable that Ye Yi hesitated when facing his own relatives.

After all, no one is perfect!

Also, Ji Fantian did say that there were over ten thousand lives held by the Queen of Canglan.

Over ten thousand people is really not a small number. Still, that Queen of Canglan is indeed ruthless!

Forget it, it's too late to say anything now. The rebellion has failed, what's the point of analyzing it now!

"Fantian, so the poison on you was also given by the Queen of Canglan?"

"That's right. The poison she gave us is called 'Insoluble'. Insoluble poison is not made from medicinal materials, but grown from human bodies."

"Poison grown from human bodies? How?" Lin Zaozao asked puzzledly.

"In order to obtain the best poisons, pregnant women are slowly poisoned through their diet during pregnancy. If the fetus in the woman's belly can be safely delivered, then the baby has a certain drug resistance.

Then the newborn baby continues to be fed poisons until mutations occur in their bodies. When they die, their corpses become the best poisons."

"Zaozao, the different colored eyes of your two younger brothers Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan were caused by them being used as medicine boys, which changed the color of their eyes.

Luckily, the experiment on them was stopped at the last step by Ye Yi's rescue. Otherwise, they would have died long ago."

"Ji Fantian, what is the relationship between Lin Wuwu, Lin Wanwan and Ye Yi?"

Facing Lin Zaozao's confusion, Ji Fantian opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer.

"Sister, the mother of Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan is my Imperial Mother's sister. And their father is my father's brother. They are also my brothers by blood."

In the past, my aunt the imperial concubine and her husband escaped from the Canglan Imperial City, and they were later killed by the assassins sent by my Empress Mother.

After my Third Brother got the news, he ran over there and secretly brought those two children back.

However, later on, that pair of twins was still discovered by my Empress Mother. To vent her anger, she used Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan to concoct medicine.

It was not until the eye colors of the twins had changed that my Third Brother realized my Empress Mother was using them to concoct medicine.

But before my Third Brother could send the twins away, my Empress Mother actually ordered the guards to restrain me and forced my Third Brother to choose between me and the twins. "Xiao Liuli stood at the door and said softly.

"Your third brother chose you, right?" Lin Zaozao sighed lightly.

"Yes. At that time, the blade of the guard had already been placed against my neck. As long as my Third Brother chose the twins, I would have died on the spot.

My third brother couldn't bear to do that, so he gave up on the twins. But he didn't really want to abandon them either.

He discussed with Murong Hai in secret to have him throw the twins into the mountains. As soon as my Empress Mother's spies left, he would have the Murong clan bring them out from the mountains.

However, unexpectedly, the twins met the Wolf King in the mountains! At that time, they were still young. For the children who were taken away by the Wolf King, there was no way for them to survive.

But we didn't expect that after Wuwu and Wanwan were taken away by the wolf pack, they were still alive. Later on, even though my Third Brother found out that they were still alive, under my Empress Mother's surveillance, he didn't even dare to get close to them.

It wasn't until you brought them back home that my Third Brother had the opportunity to get close to them.

Lin Zaozao turned around and looked at Xiao Liuli, whose tone was choked with sobs, signaling him to continue.

"Sister, my mother's throne of Empress was built upon the deaths of her dozens of brothers and sisters.

If she could have been a benevolent empress when she obtained the throne, it would have been fine. Unfortunately, she could never be satisfied with the position and power that she had consolidated.

Therefore, her children also naturally became the tools she utilized. My elder sister, my third brother, me, and my other siblings, we were all just tools for her to use.

Even though we were born to Mother Empress, she never loved us one bit. In her eyes, we were just pieces she could utilize.

Lin Zaozao saw the lost look in Xiao Liuli's eyes and didn't know how to console him for a moment.

After all, even though the Canglan Empress was the ruler of a nation, as a mother, she was truly too cruel and heartless.

"Xiao Liuli, since your mother is so vicious, do you still love her?"

Lin Zaozao tentatively asked.
