Chapter 4221: Ugly Face, Even Uglier Heart

"Senior Brother Wei Su," Ni Hanzhi said, gritting her teeth with hatred, "Have even you been deceived by this woman?"

Wei Su directly turned his face away, no longer wanting to say a word to her.

For someone who had been caught red-handed yet still tried to argue and make excuses, Wei Su had nothing more to say.

A Purple Forest Guard reached out and pulled her to her knees. Qiao Mu, with a flick of her finger, sent a Truth Jade Talisman flying towards her, its power instantly piercing her brow.

The jade talisman returned to the little Crown Princess's hand. Ni Hanzhi, kneeling on the ground with her eyes downcast, was now under the control of the Truth Talisman.

Wei Su asked coldly, "Ni Hanzhi, why did you kill your master?"

Ni Hanzhi suddenly lifted her head, her face contorted, and she blurted out, "It was all his own doing."

"All he did was tell me I was wrong. I'm his real disciple!" Ni Hanzhi roared furiously, "He kept lecturing me about being willful and telling me I should rein in my temper. Why should I rein it in for others?"

"What's so great about that Crown Princess?" Ni Hanzhi's face twisted, "She boasts about being able to refine Resurrection Pills, but in the end, she couldn't even save her own master."

"Besides, if my master hadn't told her the formula for the Bodhi Resurrection Pill, I bet she would have been completely helpless!"

"What's so amazing? She talks big, as if she's invincible, but doing it is incredibly difficult. She acts all high and mighty all the time. I just added a few strokes to the original drawing of the Bodhi Resurrection Herb, so she'd never find the real Bodhi Resurrection Herb in her life and wouldn't be able to save her master!"

The little Crown Princess's gaze instantly dropped below freezing point. Those two deep, dark pools seemed to be filled with poison, so dark that their depths were unfathomable.

[The leaves of the Bodhi Resurrection Herb are needle-shaped; it never blossoms and never bears fruit.]

She had originally thought that Elder He Wen had poor pharmacological knowledge and drew the Bodhi Resurrection Herb incorrectly, but it turned out this damned woman had altered it.

If she hadn't known the truth, if she hadn't had the forest star and already obtained that Bodhi Resurrection Herb, would she truly, as this wicked woman said, never have found the real Bodhi Resurrection Herb in her life and been unable to save Murong Xun?

Murong Xun was already so tragically dead, why did this woman still hold a grudge against her?

Why couldn't she just come at her directly? Why did she want to involve her master too??

The little Crown Princess felt a suffocating anguish. She pulled out the thorny rattan whip from her sleeve, her face grim.

The barbed whip landed directly on Ni Hanzhi's face. "Ugly face, even more malicious heart."

Ni Hanzhi, however, seemed completely oblivious, continuing to spout, "Whose master was he anyway? Whose side was his heart truly on? I accidentally let slip about the Bodhi Resurrection Herb, and when he found out, he actually turned and left, saying he was going to beg for forgiveness from the Crown Princess."

"He even said he was going to take away my cultivation and expel me from Medicine King Island, never recognizing me as his disciple again!" As Ni Hanzhi spoke, her entire face became filled with a sinister and venomous expression.

"Does Ni Hanzhi want to be a person or not? Does she want to live a good life? If he expelled me from Medicine King Island, what future would I have? What kind of future could I talk about?!"

"What did I do wrong? I was just trying to survive, fighting for my life!"

"If I didn't kill him, he would have crippled my cultivation and driven me out of Medicine King Island. How could I, Ni Hanzhi, live that kind of ordinary, servile life?"

"Those low-class people whose lives are as cheap as grass, they're not even fit to carry my shoes!"

Everyone watched in dumbfounded silence as she knelt there, her face covered in blood, shouting defiantly.
