Chapter 773: Chapter 721: When the Wall Falls, Everybody Pushes
Bai Zhi was incredibly strong and had trained with the Ancestor for several years, on top of the Bai Family’s heritage that had been passed down for so long.
Even so, she was only able to hold her own against Han Sheng to the extent of not being completely defenseless.
Bai Zhi, after all, had too little training time. Thinking of this, she waved her hand, scattering medicine powder everywhere.
A powder capable of rendering one powerless. Normally, it would take effect within a few minutes. Yet, Han Sheng seemed completely unaffected, his speed as fast as ever…
With each attack, his palm strikes brought a gust of wind. Bai Zhi already had internal injuries, and quickly began to struggle to keep up.
Bai Zhi was becoming more and more exhausted.
Suddenly, Han Sheng struck out with his palm, and in that instant, Bai Da, from seemingly nowhere, gathered the strength to rush forward and shield Bai Zhi.
Bai Da spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, which sprayed onto Bai Zhi’s clothes.
Bai Zhi caught him immediately.
“Why…” Why did you desperately save me?
“Xingxing, you’re my daughter.”
Xingxing, you’re my daughter.
I’ve longed for so long, to lay the whole world at your feet.
I’ve schemed and plotted, all to give you a good life.
But I didn’t expect that, in the end, I’d only be shooting myself in the foot. To think that you weren’t my daughter.
As kind as I was to Nan Xi, I hated you just as much.
I purposefully overlooked you, deliberately let Bai Yu bully you.
I intentionally made you incapable of everything.
I even hurt you with my own hands, inserting needles into your body.
I thought I was taking revenge on Nan Jin, yet I didn’t know; I was hurting you, my dearest Xingxing.
Xingxing, I know you won’t believe me, but I truly love you.
I’m willing to give up everything for you.
Xingxing, I want to give you the world.
Xingxing, I want to protect you.
Even if you don’t need it.
Every time I think of the suffering you endured, I want to kill myself.
It’s all Dad’s fault, it’s Dad who hurt you.
But Xingxing,
Dad loves you, truly loves you.
Even just seeing you, makes life meaningful.
Dad wants to do something for you, whatever I can, even if you don’t need it.
Now, that Dad is able to save you, it’s a good thing.
Really good.
“Xingxing, run…”
With every word Bai Da spoke, he coughed up a little blood. Bai Zhi hardly had time to think; she just laid him down and quickly pressed several acupoints on his body.
Grabbing the golden needles, she engaged with Han Sheng once more.
She didn’t feel the slightest bit guilty, nor did she feel sad.
Bai Zhi’s movements got faster and faster. The golden needles were fired relentlessly, not caring where they struck, just continually shooting them out.
Han Sheng was hit. Watching Bai Zhi’s seemingly crazed fighting style, he was helpless for the moment.
Eventually, because of his physical condition, Han Sheng was forced to temporarily retreat…
He started to gasp for breath, his heart contracting non-stop.
He couldn’t hold on any longer.
Thinking of this, he only had one thought; he must, he absolutely must capture Bai Zhi…
With this thought, Han Sheng’s eyes filled with determination, and he charged at Bai Zhi with all his might, delivering a powerful palm strike.
Bai Zhi was sent flying and crashed to the ground.
But at the same moment, she also shot her golden needles out.
When Bai Dan and the others pushed the door open, what they saw was Bai Zhi flying out, and Han Sheng falling to the ground.
Seeing the newcomers, Han Sheng immediately leaped out of the courtyard and disappeared into the night sky.
Bai Dan, Han Feng, and Xu Yan had all arrived.
Bai Zhi’s lips curved upwards, revealing a smile.
“He’s not going to fare any better. Don’t worry…”
The golden needles she used had been coated with medicine powder; his injuries would only worsen.
Then, Bai Zhi’s gaze turned to Bai Da on the ground.
“I really can’t stand it. I didn’t want to owe him anything, but I ended up owing him anyway.”
It made her feel very uncomfortable inside.
“Xingxing, don’t talk anymore, I’ll take you to see the Ancestor.”
Moh Li directly walked over and picked up Bai Zhi.
Today, Moh Li was supposed to be at home. But because something happened at the Moh Family’s side, he hadn’t managed to rush back in time.
It was then that Moh Li realized that whenever Xingxing needed him, he was never there.
Bai Zhi nodded her head and fell into a complete faint.
Moh Li carried her directly back to the study and, in the shortest amount of time, took Bai Zhi to the hot springs at the back mountain.
Everything before Bai Zhi’s eyes was pitch-black, she didn’t know where she was, didn’t know what had happened.
She tried hard to open her eyes and realized that she seemed to have returned to the past.
It must be the past of her previous life; she had died.
Bai Yu and Bai Ye were becoming more and more arrogant until finally, Han Sheng had them all arrested.
During the cleanup operation for Nan Xi, it was discovered that she was not the Guardian.
In the end, a paternity test was directly carried out between Man Yi and Bai Da, and only then did he realize that Bai Zhi was his Xingxing.
And he had personally killed his own daughter.
As a result, Bai Da went mad, truly mad.
He started calling everyone Xingxing.
Bai Yu and Bai Ye were directly taken away for research purposes. As the male protagonist to the female lead, even more so.
Similarly, she revealed the secret of her transmigration.
In the end, she died directly in the laboratory.
In the end, she still achieved nothing and was not the main female lead.
Just as Han Sheng found the Guardian’s location and fought a decisive battle to the death with the Ancestor, the sky became incredibly bright. Everything began anew…
And the one who could make all of this start over again was Moh Li.
Moh Li took out his Jade Pendant and directly drew Bai Zhi’s soul towards it, and because of the Formation, everything started over.
Bai Zhi watched scene after scene, feeling a myriad of emotions and not knowing what to say.
So, it turned out that, in her previous as well as this life, it was always Moh Li who was saving her.
…
Bai Zhi was unconscious for half a month.
Many things happened in half a month.
The laboratory was discovered, shocking the nation.
Nan Xi’s own body wasn’t looking good, and even though she was rushed to the hospital in an emergency and a life was saved, the injuries were too severe.
There was no chance of full recovery, and it was estimated that her body would be scarred and pitted in the future.
Meanwhile, Han Sheng’s actions were eventually made public, and only then did everyone realize
that the seemingly kind old man had committed so many atrocious deeds.
Suddenly, as the saying goes, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall falls, everyone pushes.
Matters that nobody talked about before were being exposed one after the other.
Moreover, every single one of them was an unpardonable crime. Suddenly, it was every man for himself…
Han Sheng was wanted, but had also disappeared and simply couldn’t be found.
But at the same time, his subordinates were being arrested one by one.
The hypnosis case, child abduction of father and daughter… and various scams.
These half-month news were all about this incident; because of this, the country began a nationwide investigation, a scrutiny of various personnel.
Bai Dan and Old Han became even busier, while Bai Xin and Li Mo had come to the treehouse early in secret to take care of Bai Zhi.
Bai Fei was released from custody, but found out that Bai Zhi might never wake up.
Bai Da had been placed in the hospital, seriously injured, but with no worries for his life.
