Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1881 - 1884: Memory Lies

Staring in shock at the gracefully alluring Baihua Palace Master Weisheng Zhimei, who left with a mischievous smile, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu hesitantly entered the room and said in surprise to Shen Qiang, who was lying on the bed browsing his phone, "The guest you mentioned is Weisheng Zhimei?""Shh!" Shen Qiang smiled, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Keep your voice down; be careful of ears on the walls."

Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu smiled, then lowered her voice, "She calls me sister. Are you going to take her back to the Mountain Villa?"

Shen Qiang smiled at me, shook his head, and said, "No chance, at least not in the short term. She's too entangled in her status and power to extricate herself. She doesn't want to make our relationship public, nor does she want to give up her position as Palace Master. So let her be; we'll talk when she's tired."

Upon hearing this, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu laughed, "I figured, no wonder you didn't want me to disturb you last night, turns out she was coming."

Shen Qiang laughed and put down his phone, "No, I told you not to disturb, so why did you come here so early?"

"The test results are out." Placing a test report in front of Shen Qiang, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu raised an eyebrow, seriously saying, "From the report, there's a 99.9% chance that Pan Zheng is Purple's biological father."

Shen Qiang laughed and corrected, "Biological father."

After looking at the test report, Shen Qiang tucked it into the Storage Ring and frowned, "It isn't a surprising result, but it does confirm our suspicions are correct. This means Purple is Pan Zheng's daughter."

"When she was very young, she used a paintbrush to capture the details of Pan Zheng and her mother's life. Then, due to some reason, she was separated from Pan Zheng. In her memory, there are only those segments of painted scenes, or rather, only those paintings she still remembers."

Upon hearing this, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu said with compassion in her eyes, "I never thought Purple was so pitiful; her mother died when she was so young, and her father abandoned her..."

Looking at the maternal instincts overflowing from Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, Shen Qiang frowned, "What are you thinking? Regardless of the tragedy in Purple's childhood, she has grown up now, she's an adult. What she needs is not comfort but understanding what truly happened."

Ke Bizhu paused, surprised, "What's there to understand? That Pan Zheng is a big villain, threatening you, controlling the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, appearing righteous on the surface, but doing all kinds of evil behind the scenes. It must be like that; otherwise, why would Purple want to kill him!"

Shen Qiang frowned at this, "Indeed, everyone has an inner demon, but most of the time, people manage to control it. So don't always think Pan Zheng is necessarily the villain; perhaps there's more to it, as there are too many suspicions."

Ke Bizhu frowned, "Where are the suspicions? Is it about the posture of the woman falling off the cliff in the painting? Maybe Purple drew it from memory incorrectly, or perhaps that's how it should have been at the time."

Shen Qiang smiled and seriously looked at Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, "What you said might be possible. I don't know how to refute you, but you must understand that memories can lie. For example, if someone is nice to you every day, over time, you take it for granted. But if one day, they're suddenly not nice, or something disappoints you, you'll think they're a scumbag."

"And such memories can be very deep, lasting for years, with you only remembering their faults and never recalling their kindness."

Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Shen Qiang laughed, "Didn't you find it odd looking at the pictures in that comic book? None of the scenes have smiles. Do you really think if Pan Zheng were the villain you imagine, he wouldn't do anything to make Purple happy?"

Ke Bizhu feeling wronged, "Well, maybe you're right, but Pan Zheng is a decent cultivator. At that time, he had the ability to save his wife, but he didn't. Not only that, but even more hateful, he abandoned Purple. It's a fact; otherwise, he should have lived with Purple."

"You can't blindly trust him because he's like you. What I said is the fact; he didn't save his wife and abandoned Purple. This is an undeniable fact."

Shen Qiang frowned, after a moment of silence, "I don't want to argue with you about this; I will find out the truth."

Purple was displeased, "Shen Qiang, you've changed. I thought you were a good person, deeply hating evil, but now you're less decisive."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Just because of what you guys said, I should go kill someone? Whose fault is it if I kill the wrong one? Can you bring them back to life? Have you thought about it? Killing Pan Zheng is easy, and then what? The whole thing is unclear; everything is conjecture."

"Oh, slap the back of one's head, this person is bad, I'll kill him, that's something only a crazy person would do."

"You're making excuses for Pan Zheng!" Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu was upset and a bit angry.

Looking at her, Shen Qiang smiled, "Because I didn't follow your heart, you're upset. You'll remember this for a long time and forget my smile, so couples break up after many arguments because they no longer remember the happiness each brought."

Staring at the stunned Ke Bizhu, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "So, memories lie, don't trust them too much."

Ke Bizhu remained silent, suddenly pondering, just as she was about to speak.

With a rustling sound.

Ye Guyun suddenly appeared on the balcony, biting a spicy chicken claw.

Ke Bizhu was stunned.

Shen Qiang asked in surprise, "Where's Purple?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Guyun looked awkward and said, "I don't know; everything was fine, then she tricked me, saying she would make me the tastiest pork jar meat. We were having a great time in the valley, and just as it was almost ready, she told me she needed to go to the bathroom. The pork jar meat needs to be eaten right away; otherwise, the flavor worsens."

"Then the pork jar meat was ready, and I just ate, ate, ate. After I finished eating, she was gone." Ye Guyun spread her hands, "You can't blame me; I never thought Purple sister would trick me."

Ke Bizhu frowned, justifiably upset, "Eat, eat, eat, that's all you know! You can't even handle such a small thing!"

Ye Guyun immediately pouted, on the verge of tears.

Seeing this, Shen Qiang got up, dressing as he spoke, "Don't blame her; let's leave it at that this time. Be more careful next time. After all, Purple is at the Dao Fruit Stage with a complex background; she's genuinely intent on escaping Ye Guyun, and there's no stopping her."
