Chapter 132
Yang Lixuan.
This name had disappeared from the Jianghu for thirty years. By the time Li Miao arrived in the Great Ming, he was already dead.
If it weren't for Ji Tianrui, Li Miao had carefully read the Ming Sect's files and even flipped through the previous ones, he might not have been able to say this name today.
In this Jianghu, the speed at which people and reputations disappear is very fast.
One year after death, gradually no one will talk about it. Ten years after death, the name will be forgotten.
Jianghu reputation relies on word of mouth; few people write it on paper or archive it. Yang Lixuan had been dead for thirty years; Li Miao being able to know this name was already due to the convenience of being in the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Speaking of Yang Lixuan, this person was a very standard "Ming Sect Leader."
He never did a good deed in his life; he was either exterminating a sect or on his way to exterminate a sect.
Even when he was using the toilet, he was thinking about whose sect he should exterminate today.
The Mongols had a way of treating captives: kill those taller than a cart wheel. He also knew this trick, but he pushed the cart wheel down first, laid it flat on the ground, and then compared the height.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard's sect extermination was splitting earthworms vertically. But if it fell into his hands, it would be "modified flower knife."
If it weren't for this, thirty years ago, the five major sects of Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Kunlun, and Kongtong would not have besieged the Ming Sect's main altar and beheaded him. And there wouldn't have been the matter of Ji Tianrui resisting the five major sects and succeeding as the Ming Sect leader later.
During the Miaowang Tomb trip, Li Miao already had some guesses about Ji Tianrui's identity.
This Yang Yueze, as a descendant of the person involved when Ji Tianrui came out of the mountains, might know Ji Tianrui's origin.
As soon as Li Miao said this, Yang Yueze fell silent.
Seeing him not speaking, Li Miao laughed.
"If you want to be a tough guy, hold on until you die."
"You've said what you said, suffered the pain, and your Wu Gong is ruined. If you hold on now, wouldn't it be a waste?"
These words were truly reasonable; Yang Yueze couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Who is your excellency? With such Wu Gong, why is there no name in the Jianghu?"
"If I had known your excellency was here, I would never have come to Shaolin."
He knew very well that he had become half a cripple, and revenge was hopeless. Moreover, his life and death were now in Li Miao's hands.
He could only hope that Li Miao really had a grudge against Ji Tianrui.
Thinking of this, Yang Yueze no longer remained silent and told Li Miao everything one by one.
This took half an hour.
Li Miao finished listening to his words, sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, twisting his fingers while thinking carefully.
"Your grandfather's death back then was indeed a bit suspicious."
Yang Yueze snorted coldly.
"With so many people from the five major sects coming, how could my grandfather not have received the news? If he wasn't prepared, he would have escaped. If it weren't for Ji Tianrui secretly poisoning him, making my grandfather have to stay and circulate his energy to expel the poison, and then resisting the experts of the five major sects with a weak body, how could he have died so easily?"
"After my grandfather died, Ji Tianrui began to clean up his confidants. If it weren't for my grandfather vaguely sensing something wrong after being poisoned and sending my parents away in advance, I wouldn't be here."
Li Miao said again.
"But, Ji Tianrui poisoned your grandfather, yet it was the experts of the five major sects who killed him."
"Master Xingchi was also one of them."
"But why does it seem like you don't have any malice towards him?"
Yang Yueze calmed down and said.
"Once you enter the Jianghu, life and death are the boundaries."
"My grandfather was not a good person, and he was prepared to die at the hands of others."
"We Yang family members, whether doing good or evil, bear the consequences ourselves. We won't be like those hypocrites who find so many excuses to whitewash things after doing them."
"Although the five major sects used wheel tactics that day, it was open and aboveboard, and they fought one by one; my grandfather died happily."
"If Xingchi falls into my hands one day, I will definitely kill him. But his grudge can be avenged or not."
Speaking of this, Yang Yueze gritted his teeth.
"Only Ji Tianrui, that bastard Ji Tianrui!"
"Using such a villainous act as poisoning to secretly harm my grandfather, plotting to seize the Ming Sect, and making my grandfather die unclearly! In the last battle before his death, he couldn't even use seventy percent of his power! He became a laughingstock in the Jianghu for nothing!"
"He died with his eyes wide open!"
"This grudge, we Yang family members must avenge!"
Yang Yueze said this viciously and wanted to continue scolding Ji Tianrui.
Suddenly, he stopped, his eyes scanning his own crippled lower body.
He suddenly flushed red, and the veins on his neck bulged.
"Your excellency, I have said everything I should say; now I only ask for a quick death!"
Li Miao raised his eyebrows and looked at him strangely.
"You've suffered the pain and said the words. Why do you suddenly want to die again?"
"You are still useful; I can spare your life."
Yang Yueze was suddenly anxious and said sharply.
"Your excellency, I really don't want to live anymore!"
"Consider it me begging your excellency; today I provoked you, and you have vented your anger, so we should be even."
"Now I only ask you to do it and kill me! I have notes about Ji Tianrui that I recorded in my bosom; you can take them. Apart from that, I am really useless to you!"
However, the more he said this, the less Li Miao wanted to do it.
Things related to the Ming Sect often involve witchcraft.
Death often implies other plans.
Yang Yueze saw that Li Miao was slow to act and became increasingly urgent.
"Your excellency, do you think I am a good person?"
"Although I don't walk the martial arts world much, I have truly killed many good people in recent years; your excellency should have heard of it! The Sun family in Beizhili, the Wang family in Qi and Lu, the Qi family and Zhou family in Huguang, all were bloody cases I committed; I didn't hold back on the old, young, women, or children, and they all died extremely tragically."
"Your excellency doesn't need to worry about killing the wrong person; you are acting on behalf of heaven, and I have no complaints!"
These things he mentioned were all famous unsolved cases in the Jianghu in recent years, and Li Miao had heard of them, so he thought what he said was true.
However, Li Miao still said lightly.
"If you don't explain the reason why you suddenly seek death, I won't do it."
"Your Ming Sect has too many tricks; I am a guest, if something unclean comes out of your corpse, how can I explain it to Shaolin?"
As soon as Li Miao said this, Yang Yueze fell silent for a moment.
Suddenly, he shed tears.
"I, I have no feeling in my lower body..."
"I am going to be incontinent."
Yang Yueze looked at Li Miao, his eyes red.
"We Yang family members can do evil, can die, but cannot be humiliated."
"I cannot stain the name of my Yang family."
"Your excellency, kill me."
"Just consider it me begging your excellency!"
Li Miao glanced at his lower body; sure enough, water stains had faintly seeped out.
"Fine."
He raised his hand, and a sharp true energy shot out, piercing Yang Yueze's heart.
"Using your Ming Sect's Profound Heaven Finger to kill you, you can also die with your eyes closed."
Yang Yueze covered his chest and moved his lips.
"Thank... you..."
"Ji... Tianrui..."
Li Miao looked at him and said.
"I will send him down; you just wait."
Yang Yueze nodded, fell down with a bang, and lost his breath.
