Chapter 675: Reversal

Jing Tian reached out his hand to wipe the bloodstains on his lips. He sneered, “Do you really think you can trick us with this trick? If you really want to make an authentic illusion, at least do some work on the waves. We were supposed to be sailing for hours, but the size of the island through the window didn’t change? It was too fake. You could only fool Nanxing, who has no life experience. But you did remind me that I should train her observation skills more in the future.”

Tong Zhuo nodded. “You’re right. I was too careless. However, how could you be sure that you hadn’t moved from the banquet hall?”

“I wasn’t sure at first, but you were too impatient. You appeared in front of Nanxing and me again and again, listening to our conversation without any hesitation. Was that necessary? It’s obvious that you’re trying to hide something, and you’re not giving us a chance to think. Although I’m not familiar with this place, I know my own body well. I’m not one to be unconscious for long. Plus, we have a lot of people on the island. You have to be a God to sneak us away without a fight, but you don’t look like you’re that capable,” Jing Tian said disdainfully.

Tong Zhuo’s expression didn’t look too good.

Jing Tian glanced at Tong Hui and me. He said slowly, “I should be your biggest variable, yes? You made ample preparations to capture Nanxing, but you didn’t expect me to barge in and ruin your plan. You had no choice but to take me along.”

Tong Zhuo’s expression changed. He sneered, “I didn’t expect you to be so smart. In that case, I might as well be frank. Nanxing’s blood is a top-grade medicine. The Tong family didn’t have Phoenix blood every generation, but they had always revered Phoenix blood like it was god’s gift. They had never studied its value. What a waste of a god’s gift. I have managed to obtain this secret by chance. Therefore, how can I let Nanxing go? You’re a talented person, and I’m also a person who cherishes talents. Why don’t we make a deal? Give Nanxing to me and you can name any conditions you want. Brother, there is plenty of fish in the ocean, so why must you insist on having her?”

Jing Tian’s expression turned cold. “In your dreams! Nanxing is your cousin! Do you think she’s the monk, Tang Sheng?”

Tong Zhuo laughed. “That is actually not a bad analogy.” He turned around and smiled at me. “Cousin, you should have the spirit of sacrifice. Your blood can benefit many people. How meaningful is that? I must take you with me. Since that’s the case, why don’t you follow me willingly? Why create this mess for everyone? The person you’re threatening is your biological uncle, the first person to discover your value. You should be grateful!”

“Shut up!” I roared. The dagger that was pressed against Tong Hui trembled involuntarily. My blood was boiling.

A cold hand suddenly grabbed my wrist. That hand was bone-chilling, but it was like a steel bar. My dagger slipped.

I couldn’t help but feel shocked.

I had always thought that Tong Hui was a weak and sickly person. However, I didn’t expect him to have such strength. His fingers pinched my acupoints. Half of my arm numbed and my heart was filled with horror. I raised my leg and kicked his wheelchair away. My knees gave way, and I knelt down.

“Nanxing!”Jing Tian rushed towards me. Tong Hui aimed the dagger at him.

I watched helplessly as the dagger stabbed into Jing Tian’s lower abdomen.

“Jing Tian!” I was so scared. I didn’t know where I found the strength but I moved to hold Jing Tian.
