After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 367 The Difference Between Miao Yin And Long Yan

Elder Jinbian saw the dazed expression on Long Yan's face and knew that she had lost her mind.

Therefore, he could only awaken her with even more cruel facts.

Perhaps the decline of the Dragon Transformation Palace was already destined, but the Long Family still existed, and he and Huoyun were still there.

"Miss, the ancestral hall of the patriarch has been prepared. Won't you go back and take a look?"

"No... it's impossible..."

Long Yan couldn't accept this fact.

Reason told her that Elder Jinbian couldn't possibly be lying.

He was loyal to Long Yi and wouldn't joke about Long Yi.

Her father, he must really be gone.

However, Long Yan also didn't believe that Zhang Chi would deceive her, but subconsciously, memories of their time together flashed through her mind.

As she looked at the situation with suspicion, the images in her memory naturally became distorted.

When they first met, Zhang Chi attacked her from behind and knocked her unconscious.

This was a huge doubt. At that time, Zhang Chi was only at the Qi Refining stage, and even if she suppressed her cultivation, her foundation in the Divine Soul realm was still there. How could she have been knocked unconscious by Zhang Chi with a single blow?

At that time, she only thought that she had been careless and not cautious enough. Now, she wondered if it was possible that a more powerful Demon Race soul was controlling Zhang Chi to accomplish all of this?

After Zhang Chi left the Sword Sect, the Left River League encountered trouble. Was it a coincidence or was it planned in advance?

And as soon as he arrived at the Talisman Treasure Sect, the Talisman Treasure Sect was destroyed. As soon as he arrived at Gold Spirit City, a place that had been peaceful for many years suddenly had activities from the Demon Cult.

As she carefully recalled every step Zhang Chi had taken, Long Yan felt more and more that something was wrong.

Once could be a coincidence, but so many times, were they all coincidences?

In Long Yan's heart, the seed of doubt began to take root and sprout.

Of course, at the same time, images of her and Zhang Chi together also appeared in Long Yan's mind, and the person in those images was so beautiful.

But good and bad thoughts alternated, and Long Yan's heart was in turmoil.

"I can't tell, I really can't tell!"

Elder Jinbian looked at Long Yan, who was crying in despair, and could only shake his head helplessly.

He had also come from his youth and could understand Long Yan.

During this time, Long Yan had finally emerged from the shadow of Zhang Chi's disappearance and intended to face the future positively, waiting for Zhang Chi's return.

But not long after, she encountered this blow, and it was normal for her to find it difficult to accept.

But she was the future of the Long Family, carrying the heavy burden of reviving the Long Family's heritage. How could she indulge in sadness?

Elder Jinbian said helplessly, "Miss, I understand your sadness, but now is the time to make a decision. Some things, you may not believe just by listening to me. It's better to go back and see for yourself."

These sincere words made Long Yan regain some clarity.

Yes, she should go back and take a look.

At this moment, her own safety was no longer important. No matter what, she had to go back and verify one thing: whether her father was alive or dead, she could only believe it when she saw it with her own eyes.

"Pack up, we're going back immediately."

Long Yan forced herself to regain her composure. She didn't plan to make a big fuss about this matter, but Miao Yin still received the news and knew that they were returning early. Miao Yin came to visit, wanting to hitch a ride on the return journey's immortal boat.

At this moment, Miao Yin's eyes were also swollen, obviously, she also knew about the destruction of the Celestial Melody Pavilion, and she had cried in sadness before making the same choice as Long Yan.

She wanted to go back and investigate the matter.

As for the rumors, she didn't believe a single word.

The remaining people did not follow along. The Project Fire Seed was meant to preserve the fire seed.

Now that the Dragon River Alliance was undergoing major changes, no one knew what would happen in the future, so it was best for them not to go back at this time.

Miao Yin and Long Yan were exceptions because of their special identities.

Sitting on the immortal boat, the three of them were very quiet, with only Elder Jinbian continuously urging the boat to accelerate.

They flew the flag of the White Tiger Sect and didn't need to stop along the way.

The two women, who usually confront each other, now find themselves in a similar predicament.

Their families have encountered a major upheaval, causing the collapse of their loved ones' personas.

Long Yan couldn't help but look at Miao Yin and ask, "How much of those rumors do you believe?"

"Which ones are you referring to?"

Miao Yin's voice remained cold as she looked at Long Yan with indifference.

She was always a detached person, but she became more affectionate because of Zhang Chi.

Now, it seems she is returning to her original self.

"The incidents at the Celestial Melody Pavilion and Zhang Chi..."

"Do you suspect Zhang Chi?"

Long Yan fell silent.

She didn't want to suspect or admit that she was doubting a man she once deeply loved, but the truth was that she had already started to doubt.

After a moment of silence, Long Yan said with lifeless eyes, "I don't want to suspect, but I can't help it. I can't fully trust him, nor can I completely doubt him."

It was because she was caught in this state that Long Yan was in immense pain.

Every moment, her heart was tormented and questioned.

Sometimes it was her father interrogating her, sometimes it was Zhang Chi.

She was on the verge of collapse.

That's why, at this moment, she took the initiative to speak to her love rival.

Miao Yin was cold and said, "Whether it's complete trust or suspicion, why bother disguising your true feelings? In fact, you already almost believe that Zhang Chi killed your father. You just want a definite answer."

Miao Yin hit the nail on the head. She was always accurate in her judgment of people and never held back in her words.

Long Yan didn't mind her ruthlessness because she realized that Miao Yin's analysis was correct.

Even though she didn't want to believe that Zhang Chi was capable of those things, she also didn't fully trust him.

If she had absolute trust, she wouldn't doubt and would think that everything was just a misunderstanding, even if it was Fire Cloud and Golden Whip who were involved.

It could even be her father mistaking someone else.

Unfortunately, she had already started to doubt.

"What about you?"

"I don't doubt Zhang Chi. Zhang Chi has no reason to harm anyone at the Celestial Melody Pavilion."

"Aren't you afraid of the possibility?"

"If something were to happen, I would take my own life as an apology."

Miao Yin's attitude was resolute.

Whether she brainwashed herself or not, once she made up her mind, it wouldn't change.

Of course, she knew she could be wrong.

If she was wrong, she would only have death as her apology to the Celestial Melody Pavilion.

However, until there was concrete evidence, she wouldn't doubt Zhang Chi.

"You've won again."

Long Yan said lifelessly.

Miao Yin had won in terms of trust in Zhang Chi and her unconditional love for him.

"Perhaps, from the beginning, I was wrong."

Long Yan looked at her own hands, hands that once tightly held Zhang Chi.

But she knew that their love had become impure since she started doubting Zhang Chi... (End of this chapter)
