Chapter 366: Challenging The State Minister (Part 1)
Liu Sanniang looked at Yang Cheng, who also looked up and met her gaze. It was obvious to everyone that he was gloating.
Even the State Minister said that he was innocent, so what else could others say?
Liu Sanniang walked towards Yang Cheng. Her expression remained cold as she stared at him for a while before replying slowly. “I see sin, ambition, and pride.”
Yang Cheng frowned.
Liu Sanniang extended her hand in front of Yang Cheng and released her power to envelop him. Yang Cheng was gloating at this moment, so he was naturally not on guard. If others could hear his mind, they would definitely be able to hear him laughing arrogantly.
Liu Sanniang’s power was sharp and overwhelming. By the time Yang Cheng sensed it, he was already too powerless to resist it. He widened his eyes at Liu Sanniang. The smile on his face turned into fear. He leaned back slightly, trying to avoid Liu Sanniang’s sensing.
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “I saw it. Your name is Yang Cheng. Behind your greed and ambition, there are countless sins. You, who was born to a concubine, hate your identity to the core. In terms of intelligence and talent, you are not inferior to your brother. The only thing you are inferior to him is in your identity. To swap bodies with him, you have to pay a huge price. You are willing to pay the price as long as you can become the legitimate son.”
“When that monk came to see you, you agreed without thinking. As long as you can change your identity, no price is heavy enough. The price was the lives of your wife and your child. You prepared for a year to execute the technique and you finally made it.”
“Money and power, you can have anything you want. After decades of carnal dissipation, your health has deteriorated. Even if you weren’t executed, you wouldn’t have long to live. Therefore, you destroyed the formation and returned to your own body. This is undoubtedly a good thing for you. You have countless treasures hidden under those graves. They can provide you with wealth for the rest of your life. At the same time, you also have a healthy body. You’re very satisfied with the outcome.”
“You returned to your body. That also means that the body you occupied for thirty years is now returned to its original owner. You want to see how desperate and painful he is. You want to tell him that you will live well and that his wife and daughter will be yours. His pain and despair will satisfy you.”
After saying that, Liu Sanniang retracted her hand.
Yang Cheng was covered in sweat and panting heavily. Liu Sanniang did not do anything to him, but he felt like he was stifled. He was too overjoyed earlier and did not stay on guard. When he realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.
Yang Cheng’s reaction shocked Wu Changxian and the others.
He panicked and said with a trembling voice, “You, you’re talking nonsense. What are you up to?”
Xu Yue’s face darkened. “What did you do to him?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xu Yue. “Did what I could.”
Xu Yue frowned. “As a member of the Mystic World, how can you spout nonsense? Their souls are compatible with their bodies. If you insist on spouting nonsense, you’re doing evil.”
What Liu Sanniang said was in conflict with what he said, which made him quite displeased.
Wu Changxian looked at Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “If you don’t believe me, you can dig up the Yang family’s ancestral grave and see if there’s money inside.”
Yang Cheng was furious. “It’s immoral to dig up someone’s ancestral grave.”
Liu Sanniang sneered. “Is there really a human buried in the ancestral grave?”
Yang Cheng looked at Liu Sanniang’s cold gaze and couldn’t help but shiver. He had experienced many things in his life, but this was the only time he felt terrified.
He did not know how to describe the feeling just now. He had strength, but he could not move. He felt that he had been seen through. There was no secret in front that could be hidden from Liu Sanniang. She knew everything he had done in his life.
Wu Changxian looked at Yang Cheng who was frightened out of his wits and waved his hand. “Someone, go to the Yang family’s ancestral grave immediately to check. If necessary, dig it and see if there is money underneath.”
Liu Sanniang walked up to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi looked at her as if he had seen hope. He felt a warm force wrapping around him and chasing away all his distress. He felt a lump in his throat and couldn’t help but close his eyes.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “I feel endless despair and pain.”
“You were talented and blessed with a good future. But one day upon waking up, you realize that you became a different person. This was a disaster for you. Bit by bit, your world collapsed.”
Tears streamed down Yang Yi’s face. He felt that someone could finally relate with the grievance and pain he went through.
“Justice will be served. No one can take away what belongs to you. No matter in which body, you are always you!”
Liu Sanniang retracted her power. Yang Yi was not guarded against her at all because he desperately wanted someone to see through him and understand him.
Yang Yi looked at Liu Sanniang with a blurred vision. He could vaguely see that there was a layer of Buddha light on Liu Sanniang. He revealed a relieved smile.
Xu Yue frowned and said coldly, “Body-swapping is a forbidden technique. Miss Liu, are you confident in what you said?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xu Yue. “State Minister, are you doubting me?”
Xu Yue snorted. “How can a forbidden technique be performed so easily? I’m not doubting you. I’m just asking for the truth.”
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “As a cultivator, if you take the wrong step, you will become a sinner. Do you know that the consequence your word brings will cause you karma?”
Xu Yue’s face darkened. “I think you’re the one doing evil.”
Xu Yue looked at Yang Yi and Yang Cheng. “In this world, no one can perform forbidden techniques so easily.”
Body-swapping? That was simply ridiculous.
What did Liu Sanniang know? What kind of sect was she from? She actually dared to challenge the Cloud Breaking Sect.
Xu Yue’s face darkened.
Liu Sanniang walked to Yang Cheng and reached out. Yang Cheng immediately aged. He looked shocked. “You, what did you do to me?”
Liu Sanniang then walked to Yang Yi’s side and patted him on the shoulder. Yang Yi immediately felt vigorous. He looked at Liu Sanniang with gratitude.
Liu Sanniang looked at Xu Yue. “State Minister, why don’t you take a look at the two of them again to see if there’s anything unusual?”
