232: Tsukihime defeated Ding Chunqiu in an instant and surrendered.

"No, I don't know."

Moon Princess's eyes darted about, not daring to meet Duan Zhengchun's gaze.

She always felt that she had no secrets at all before Duan Zhengchun.

"Hmph, speak. Who gave you the mission?" Duan Zhengchun's tone was cool yet filled with an undeniable authority.

Moon Princess took a deep breath; Duan Zhengchun was too unfathomable.

Facing such a person, Moon Princess felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time in her heart.

"We were unlucky to fall into your hands today. Go ahead and do it. I will not tell you the client's information." Moon Princess's voice was cold and weak.

"Oh? Don't you want to save him?" Duan Zhengchun raised an eyebrow, looking towards the extremely weakened Nether Marquis beside them.

Hearing Duan Zhengchun's words, Moon Princess's expression froze, doubting if she had misheard.

"What did you just say?"

"You have a way to detoxify him?" Moon Princess looked at Duan Zhengchun with disbelief.

Seeing Moon Princess's expression, Duan Zhengchun knew he had succeeded.

"Of course. It's just a minor poison; I can detoxify him at any time."

"What is your condition?"

Moon Princess stared intently at Duan Zhengchun, her tone cold, carrying a trace of icy aloofness.

"You..."

Duan Zhengchun did not beat around the bush and directly stated his condition.

Hearing Duan Zhengchun's words, the previously listless Nether Marquis suddenly widened his eyes, a fierce aura erupting from his body.

"Don't agree to him! Even if I die, I won't let you do that sort of thing!" Nether Marquis roared in a low, furious voice.

Moon Princess was not surprised by Duan Zhengchun's condition. Before coming, she had already understood his situation.

He was a complete lecher, with many women around him.

She just hadn't expected this guy to still be unsatisfied and actually want her too.

However, if she didn't agree, Nether Marquis would die. Nether Marquis still had a great vengeance unfulfilled. If there was a chance, she couldn't let him die.

"If you recklessly stir your Qi and blood again, the poison will soon attack your heart. By then, not even a deity could save you." Duan Zhengchun spoke calmly, looking at the agitated Nether Marquis.

"Nether Marquis, calm down. You still have a great vengeance to fulfill."

"I'm just following him, it's not like I'm dead." Moon Princess looked at Nether Marquis with a calm expression.

"It's not impossible for me to become your woman. Detoxify Nether Marquis and tell me who killed his entire family back then."

"As long as you can do that, I'll agree to your condition." Moon Princess took a deep breath and looked calmly at Duan Zhengchun.

"Is that your condition?" Duan Zhengchun looked at Moon Princess with a strange expression.

"What? Can't do it? If you can't, then there's nothing more to say."

"Anyway, when I embarked on this path, I was already prepared to be killed at any time." Moon Princess's tone was calm, devoid of any emotion.

"That's not it. I thought you would propose a difficult condition, but it's just this?"

"This is too simple for me. Let me detoxify him first."

As Duan Zhengchun spoke, he raised his hand, and in an instant, Nether Marquis was pulled before him by a force.

He raised his hand and unleashed a stream of pure Northern Darkness True Qi. The True Qi, overwhelmingly domineering, coursed through Nether Marquis's body once.

It directly forced the poison within his body out.

Nether Marquis spat out a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood, and his complexion immediately became ruddy.

The black blood fell to the ground, emitting a sizzling sound, corroding a pit into the earth.

This showed how potent the poison was. If not for Nether Marquis's strong strength and extraordinary physical constitution, he would have died earlier.

If it were Moon Princess, she definitely wouldn't have lasted this long.

Using the same method, Duan Zhengchun forced the poison out of Moon Princess's body.

The Qi of both immediately stabilized considerably, and their complexions returned to normal.

"Nether Marquis has two enemies. One is Xiao Yu, and the other is Old Man Tian Quan. It was Old Man Tian Quan who killed Nether Marquis's entire family back then." Duan Zhengchun directly stated Nether Marquis's two enemies.

Upon hearing Old Man Tian Quan's name, Nether Marquis's face showed an expression of disbelief as he shook his head frantically.

Old Man Tian Quan was his savior, his Master. How could he possibly be his enemy?

"No, you're lying! How could my Master be the one who killed my family? It's impossible, impossible!" Nether Marquis roared emotionally.

"You lost your memory, not your brain?"

"Sometimes, what the eyes see isn't necessarily true."

"Back then, Old Man Tian Quan stayed at your home because he coveted your family's treasure, so he killed to seize it."

"To cover up the truth, he set fire to your entire family. You just happened to survive. Originally, he intended to kill you."

"However, you lost your memory upon waking up and mistakenly believed he had saved you."

"Old Man Tian Quan discovered you mistakenly regarded him as your savior, so he went along with it and devised a malicious plan."

"That was to, on one hand, claim he would help you find the culprit for revenge, and on the other, groom you into an assassin."

"And you, seeking revenge, trained day and night, which is how you achieved your current level." Duan Zhengchun calmly recounted Nether Marquis's information.

Hearing Duan Zhengchun's words, Nether Marquis was completely stunned.

If it were about other things, he wouldn't believe it. But Duan Zhengchun could describe the events of that year so clearly. It must be known that only he and his Master were present at the time.

Moreover, he had only ever told Moon Princess about this matter, never mentioning it before a third person.

How could Duan Zhengchun know so clearly? Could it be that his Master really is Old Man Tian Quan?

"No, no, impossible, impossible! Why is it like this? Why is it like this?"

Nether Marquis's emotions spiraled out of control as he roared at the sky. At this moment, his mentality completely collapsed.

The culprit he had been investigating for so many years was actually right beside him, and was the very Master who raised him.

Moon Princess also hadn't expected the outcome to be like this.

She clearly understood the position Old Man Tian Quan held in Nether Marquis's heart.

Now, receiving such a result, no one could accept it.

"You're not saying this deliberately, are you?" Moon Princess looked at Duan Zhengchun, suspicion in her eyes.

"What benefit would that bring me? If I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as crushing an ant. Why would I need such a method?" Duan Zhengchun looked at Moon Princess with an expression as if looking at a fool.

Moon Princess was provoked by Duan Zhengchun's gaze.

"What kind of look is that?" Moon Princess asked, her face darkening as she stared at Duan Zhengchun.

"Figure it out yourself..."

Duan Zhengchun retorted, leaving Moon Princess momentarily speechless, unsure how to rebut.

She glared at Duan Zhengchun angrily. Somehow, her former self could remain calm in the face of anything.

But today, after encountering Duan Zhengchun, any casual remark from him could break her defense, unsettling her state of mind.

She could no longer remain calm as she used to.

"Alright, the conditions have been fulfilled. From today on, you are mine." After saying this, Duan Zhengchun glanced at the corpses on the ground and frowned slightly.

With a casual wave, instantly, Ding Chunqiu and his group of Disciples turned to dust and dissipated.

The smell of blood in the air also vanished.

Such a nonchalant method caused Moon Princess and Nether Marquis's pupils to contract sharply.
