113: Ma Xianhong's memories

Lin Yuan stood in place, his gaze fixed on Qu Tong.

He casually waved his hand, and several long swords transformed into streaks of white light, rushing towards Qu Tong.

Qu Tong had no time to react and was instantly pierced through.

Qu Tong grunted. If it were anyone else, after taking those few sword strikes, her life would have been long gone.

But for Qu Tong, such injuries were merely trivial.

As a red Qi enveloped Qu Tong's body, her body visibly healed rapidly.

“Truly worthy of the All-encompassing Hands,” Lin Yuan remarked.

Lin Yuan had initially been worried that Qu Tong, being able to change her appearance and memories at will, might send a substitute for this operation.

Heh heh heh… I didn't expect to run into her myself.

“Immortal Master Lin Yuan… Do you really think you can kill me?”

Qu Tong looked at Lin Yuan with a triumphant expression. As long as her Qi remained, she was immortal.

A cold sneer appeared on Lin Yuan's lips.

“Heh heh heh, I’ve never heard of such an impolite request.”

“Looking at you, you're barely good enough to be Platinum Star's punching bag.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Platinum Star appeared in front of Lin Yuan.

“ora! ora! ora! ora! ora!”

Platinum Star unleashed a barrage of punches on Qu Tong, delivering hundreds of blows in a matter of seconds.

Qu Tong had long since been beaten beyond recognition.

Qu Tong, lying on the ground, was once again enveloped by red Qi.

Although Qu Tong could recover from her injuries and truly couldn't die, it didn't mean she couldn't feel pain.

She could feel every punch landing on her body.

She couldn't die, but the pain was very real.

Lin Yuan looked at Qu Tong with a playful expression.

“Today, I want to see who can last longer, you or Platinum Star.”

You, Qu Tong, can't die, right? No problem, I'll just exhaust all your Qi and see who outlasts whom.

Qu Tong was panting heavily. If this continued, she would truly be not far from death.

Moreover, this would also cause her spirit to completely break down.

She finally realized the vast difference in strength between her and Lin Yuan. It was a chasm. The other party hadn't even gone all out, and she already had no way to retaliate.

“Wait! Lin Yuan! Stop! I really can't take it anymore! Can you make him stop?”

Qu Tong was thoroughly terrified by Platinum Star's beating. She now genuinely had a psychological shadow of Lin Yuan himself.

“Immortal Master Lin Yuan, I have no grievances with you. What exactly do you want? Everything is negotiable.”

Lin Yuan smiled calmly and pointed to Ma Xianhong behind him.

“Give Ma Xianhong his memories back.”

Qu Tong immediately started feigning ignorance.

“Immortal Master Lin Yuan… What are you talking about? What memories?”

Hearing this, Ma Xianhong walked excitedly to Lin Yuan's side.

“Lin Yuan, what's going on? What do you mean? What memories?”

“I beg you! Can you please tell me the truth?”

Hearing Ma Xianhong's pitiful plea, Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

“Sigh… Ma Xianhong, I told you your brain was messed up, but you really didn't think about it?”

“The one who caused your memory loss is your good older sister!”

“The cultivation furnace being able to help you find your memories, it was all her modifying your memories and forcing you to do this.”

“I said before, everything you've done is meaningless, it's all just paving the way for her.”

“You are merely Qu Tong's puppet.”

Ma Xianhong looked at Qu Tong with disbelief, as if he had suffered a heavy blow.

“Is it really as he says?”

“Sister! Say something! Sister!!”

Ma Xianhong's tone grew increasingly agitated. Facing his questions, Qu Tong remained unmoved.

In her eyes, Ma Xianhong was merely a pawn.

Why should she explain these things to a pawn?

Ma Xianhong looked at Qu Tong, and the answer formed in his heart. He knelt weakly to the ground.

“Qu Tong, what have you decided? I don't have much patience.”

“Oh dear… Immortal Master Lin Yuan… don't be so anxious. How about this, we make a deal?”

Lin Yuan sneered, “Are you threatening me?”

Qu Tong chuckled, “Since you know about the All-encompassing Hands, you should also know that I can destroy Ma Xianhong's memories at any time.”

“And you can't kill me in a short time… If I don't want to give them to you… what can you do to me?”

“Guess if the Company's people arrive as reinforcements, will you still be able to get Ma Xianhong's memories?”

Lin Yuan immediately snorted coldly upon hearing this.

“Hmph, Qu Tong, do you think you can have me cornered?”

“Heh heh… Immortal Master Lin Yuan, it's merely a matter of mutual benefit.”

“As long as you are willing to do something for me, I can give you Ma Xianhong's memories.”

Lin Yuan sneered, “Qu Tong… do you really think your plan of hiding your identity can truly deceive everyone?”

“Lin Yuan… What do you want to do?”

Qu Tong's heart immediately sank with a bad feeling.

“You've been planning for so many years, with your hidden pieces in various forces, and your people within the Company. It wasn't easy to achieve this, was it?”

“Tell me, if people were to find out about these plans of yours, what would happen?”

Every word from Lin Yuan made Qu Tong's heart tighten.

Where did he find these clues about her?

Cold sweat constantly appeared on Qu Tong's forehead.

If others truly found out about her hidden pieces and her identity scheme, all of Qu Tong's arrangements over the years would go to waste.

Even Qu Tong herself would be exposed.

Then her plan would truly be completely shattered… Thinking of this, Qu Tong closed her eyes in pain.

“Heh heh… Immortal Master Lin Yuan… This game… you won! I lost!”

“Alright! Immortal Master Lin Yuan, let's do as you say.”

“I just hope… you will keep your word.”

Lin Yuan said indifferently:

“As long as you don't infringe upon my interests in the future, I can overlook your affairs.”

Qu Tong nodded.

“Alright… I hope Immortal Master Lin Yuan truly stands by his word, after all, I am now the fish on the chopping block.”

Qu Tong then tapped her forehead and retrieved another light blue orb, roughly the size of a melon seed.

“These are Ma Xianhong's memories… take them.”

Ma Xianhong immediately ran up and took the orb with both hands.

Although the orb was small, it was extremely important to Ma Xianhong.

These were the memories he had been searching for, now in his hands. Ma Xianhong's heart was filled with mixed emotions at this moment.

Qu Tong, after giving Ma Xianhong his memories, immediately made her escape.

If Lin Yuan were to go back on his word, she wouldn't be able to escape even if she wanted to…
