章 257: Section 257: Contradicting Oneself

Shen Yue desperately hoped that his intuition was wrong. But the moment he saw everyone's faces, particularly the worry creeping up again on Cai Shuzhen's face, he knew that his intuition was extremely likely to be accurate.

In the room, he was probably the last to know about Shikong's treatment plan.

Shikong explained the plan to Cai Shuzhen the night before, but she was plainly not in agreement, hence she turned to Shen Yue for consultation.

The reason Shikong had thoroughly narrated past events was to indirectly tell Cai Shuzhen that he wasn't being evasive. He hadn't truly exterminated the Gu toxins in Li Wancheng back then, and to ask him to treat Li Jixian now, they could probably only revisit the path that Li Wancheng took.

Killing Li Jixian through a lightning strike, and then guiding his soul back through Shikong's chanting of the sutras!

How could Cai Shuzhen possibly agree to such a plan?
