Chapter 658 The Murderer
Tong Hui looked at Ma Ji in shock. This was the first time he showed an expression of shock.
We looked at her in the same shock.
What did she say? She was working for Tong Zhuo?!
She had just confessed to him, but she was also working for Tong Zhuo?
I also found out about the complicated relationship between Tong Zhuo and Tong Hui.
Tong Hui suddenly laughed out loud. “So that’s why.”
His voice was like an owl, turning from laughter to wailing and then to whimpering.
Ma Ji looked at him quietly, waiting for his voice to gradually weaken. Then she slowly said, “Because he used your life to threaten me. If I didn’t betray you and serve him, he would find someone else to deal with Sir. That person wouldn’t be as gentle as me. To make sure that Sir stays alive, I promised him to stop sharing with Sir the results of my experiments. Sir, Mr. Tong Zhuo promised me that once my drug is successful and his illness is cured, he will allow me to take you away and settle down in a place with mountains and rivers. This is the condition that he listed for me. Unfortunately, there is no way to achieve it now.”
Ma Ji lowered her voice and looked sad.
Tong Hui wiped his face and looked at Ma Ji. His voice was a little hoarse. “Does that mean he has no chance of recovery now? How far have you gone with the research?”
Ma Ji shook her head gently, “Even now, you are still hoping for his recovery and yearning for the drug that will help you dominate the world. You don’t even care about my safety. I am not worth mentioning, am I?”
She looked at Tong Hui humbly, her eyes begging
Tong Hui snorted lightly. “Voodoo witches like you are all vicious. Your sister is filled with resentment because she couldn’t get me. She cast a blood curse on my son. Do you think the lives of your entire clan are worth more than my son’s life?”
Ma Ji looked like she had been struck by lightning. She looked at Tong Hui with a bright gaze, and her voice trembled. “Did you kill my entire clan?”
Tong Hui sneered, “Of course! Killing your whole clan didn’t make me feel better either!”
Ma Ji said in a trembling voice, “They are innocent. They have no enmity with you. The one who provoked you is my sister. That’s one hundred and fifty-eight lives lost, ranging from an old man of seventy years old to a three-month-old child. How could you bear to do that?” Tong Hui sneered, “Why wouldn’t I do that? Why should I keep the witches and their clan alive? You people are vicious and cruel. It was a consensual affair, but your sister refused to accept the breakup. How dare she use my son to threaten me? If your sister didn’t curse him, he might not have contracted the family disease at all. It was your sister who harmed my son. I want your entire village to be buried with her. Is there anything unreasonable about that?”
Ma Ji’s entire body was trembling, and tears were streaming down her face. She sobbed uncontrollably. “It was she who saved you. Without her, you would have been killed in that primeval forest a long time ago! Was she wrong to have saved you?”
Tong Hui refused to answer and snorted coldly.
Ma Ji’s voice was filled with pain. “She was only eighteen years old. She was young and ignorant. It was the first time she had met someone from the outside world. She fell in love with you and gave herself to you. Was she wrong? She ignored her entire clan and secretly looked after you. She hauled you back from the brink of death. Was she wrong?”
Tong Hui glared at her. “But she cursed my descendants and me! She’s selfish and inhumane! She’s just a monster and a scourge. If I didn’t kill her, she’d continue to harm the human world. I did the world a service!”
