Chapter 252
Goodbye!
In the quiet cell, two names were clearly heard. Hearing this, Ling Yidao, who was standing outside the cell with a mocking smile on his face, was stunned. But then he leaned lazily against the mottled and moldy wall beside him and looked directly at Yin Fengxiang in the cell.
"Nie Wenhao, Duan Yuechan?!"
"Exactly!"
"Hehe... I was wondering what big shot you would have me kill~! So it's those two old things..."
Ling Yidao's words were filled with obvious contempt. It was as if killing them was no more than stepping on an ant. Seeing Ling Yidao's expression, Yin Fengxiang, who had been slightly restrained, couldn't help but smile.
"That's right, for an expert like you, it's naturally a piece of cake!"
Yin Fengxiang wasn't flattering Ling Yidao, just stating the facts. But Ling Yidao didn't care about such praise; he glanced at Yin Fengxiang sideways, but then twitched the corners of his mouth.
"However, I find it strange why you care so much about those two old things? After all, even if you don't make a move, there will be others to deal with them~!"
Ling Yidao was naturally aware of Nie Wenhao and Empress Dowager Duan colluding to force a rebellion. And precisely because he knew, he also knew that although Nie Wenhao and Empress Dowager Duan were currently missing, they would never give up based on their personalities!
And although the two were full of tricks, their opponents were not pushovers. Especially since he had personally fought Yin Fengzhan, Ling Yidao knew clearly that even if Nie Wenhao and Empress Dowager Duan made a comeback, they would never be Yin Fengzhan's match!
So, at this moment, Yin Fengxiang's arrangement seemed redundant to Ling Yidao. But looking at Yin Fengxiang's persistent appearance, it was clear he was determined, even willing to trade his private treasure—this had to make Ling Yidao curious!
Ling Yidao was a smart man, so he intuitively felt that Yin Fengxiang's reason for doing this, even at the cost of all his remaining chips, must have an inside story!
And based on his understanding of Yin Fengxiang, this matter was likely related to that woman surnamed Nie!
Therefore, thinking of this, Ling Yidao became even more eager to know Yin Fengxiang's purpose. But at this time, hearing Ling Yidao's questioning, Yin Fengxiang just looked at him quietly, then turned and walked back to his original position and sat down.
"Take money, eliminate disasters for others... If I remember correctly, that's what you told me when we first met! And now, I am willing to pay, and you have agreed, so why ask more?! This is not something a killer should do, right!"
Yin Fengxiang clearly didn't want to say. Hearing this, Ling Yidao moved his brows reflexively, then laughed.
"Haha~, well said! However, now, it seems you don't have the right to bargain with me!"
"Hehe~, that's true! But I believe you are an outstanding killer! So you shouldn't make mistakes that a killer shouldn't make!"
"Good! Very good! It seems I really like you, so much so that watching you locked in a cell and waiting for an unknown fate makes me feel a bit heartbroken... Hehe, how about this? Let's change the deal: you give me the money, and I save you, how about that?"
Ling Yidao was a very casual and cunning person. He could even be brothers with you one second, but the next second, he would make you lose your head without warning! And it was precisely because of this that when they were in the stone chamber of Qingtansi Temple, so many people were afraid of him!
But at this time, hearing Ling Yidao's words, Yin Fengxiang smiled ambiguously and raised his brows.
"Ling Yidao, you have been with me for so long, you should know my personality... Life, death, I have never cared about them! And what I care about, you should also know, so I am waiting for you here for this one thing, and it is my only thing. And the location of the hidden things is in that waist pendant, you should know, so I won't say more..."
As he spoke, Yin Fengxiang reached into his bosom and took out something like a waist pendant, then threw it to Ling Yidao outside the cell, and then said:
"Ling Yidao, we have known each other for a while, I trust you. So, now I hope you can keep your promise and do what you said!"
Not knowing when he had put away his smile, Yin Fengxiang looked cold. Ling Yidao lowered his eyes to look at the waist pendant in his hand, then looked up at Yin Fengxiang, turned his wrist, and put the pendant into his bosom.
"Don't worry, although I'm not a good person, I value my word... However, speaking of which, that old thing surnamed Nie is very cunning. No one knew where he went after he escaped last time. Now that you want me to kill him, I wonder if you have any clues about him?"
Ling Yidao asking this clearly meant he was serious. But Yin Fengxiang shook his head.
"You don't need to look for him deliberately! I believe he will appear on his own before long! And when that time comes, it will depend on your ability!"
"Hehe~, you are quite confident!"
"It's not that I am confident, but that I know Nie Wenhao too well! Having operated for a lifetime, he will never give up!"
"Hehe~, good! Since that's the case, then I'll wait!"
As he spoke, Ling Yidao smiled at Yin Fengxiang and was about to leave... But just as he turned around, Ling Yidao couldn't help but say with a smile:
"Hehe~, actually, even if you don't say it, I know you are doing this for that girl surnamed Nie... However, I have always found it hard to understand, she's just a woman, why would you go to such lengths?! Hey, I can't figure it out anyway, but now, I'm even more curious about what you are trying to hide with such painstaking efforts?"
While speaking, Ling Yidao, who had already turned around, glanced at Yin Fengxiang sideways. Only then, looking at Ling Yidao's curious yet deliberately self-talking appearance, Yin Fengxiang smiled slightly and said in his usual gentle and calm manner:
"You really don't understand, because you have never encountered it. But I guarantee, if one day you meet a woman, you will do the same thing as me! Because you and I are very similar in this regard... As for what I want to hide, hehe, since you said it's hidden, it's naturally a secret. And since it's a secret, I naturally won't tell anyone!"
"Hehe... you really are an annoying person!"
"Likewise!"
Yin Fengxiang replied calmly. Hearing this, Ling Yidao laughed again, then flashed and disappeared in the prison...
Regarding Ling Yidao, Yin Fengxiang believed he would keep his promise. After Ling Yidao left, Yin Fengxiang, sitting in his seat, relaxed his expression slightly, but then smiled lightly.
"Hehe..."
Yin Fengxiang laughed lightly. While laughing, he couldn't help but close his eyes slowly, and then scene after scene flashed through Yin Fengxiang's mind...
He remembered that in that bright forest, a beautiful woman suddenly walked into his world...
He remembered that by that clear stream, that beautiful woman skillfully treated the snake bite on his leg. Her expression was so serious, her gaze was so natural, and at that moment, he heard his heart, which had been silent for more than twenty years like a pool of stagnant water, suddenly beat...
She was kind, but not weak. She was smart, but not cunning. She was upright, but also so affectionate and tolerant...
And she was not the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, but she was the best in the world!
It's just a pity that she was never his. So, he had complained, felt helpless, and struggled... But in the end, he chose to fight for it!
Of course, he admitted that his methods of fighting were a bit extreme, and he didn't even hesitate to have blood on his hands, but he never regretted his actions!
Even on that afternoon, he didn't ask for marriage from his father, and his father didn't tell him without hesitation like that day—
"What?! You want to marry Nie Jinxuan?! No! Absolutely not!"
"She is the Fourth's woman. Even if they have separated now, she has been married into the royal family once. How can I let a woman marry my fourth son first, and then marry my second son?! There is no such thing in the world, I absolutely cannot let such a thing happen, and I will never let the Dongling royal family lose face like this!"
"So, I tell you, you can marry anyone you want, but not Nie Jinxuan. As long as I am alive, I will never agree! You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible!"
She was the only beauty in his life! So, as long as he had a shred of strength, he wouldn't give up hope! Therefore, if time could turn back and life could start over, he still wouldn't change his choice!
And now, it's all over.
So, he wanted to do one last thing for her in the last moment of his life, which was also the only thing he could do!
And Nie Wenhao and Empress Dowager Duan... He knew that if she knew it was him who caused Ling Yidao to kill them, she would definitely be sad! But he couldn't care about that anymore, because if they didn't die, once they told that secret one day, she would suffer for a lifetime.
He had no future. So his only hope now was that she would be worry-free for the rest of her life... Therefore, even if he was covered in blood, he was willing!
So
Goodbye, Jinxuan...
Goodbye, my only true love in this life!
