Chapter 1487 If There Is a Next Life

do Would she have to betray the organization herself"Luckily I didn't find anything! The Dragon Girl let out a long sigh, it seems this Xiao Jie is using an alias, or he might not even be from the Dr...Probably about this level when a professional diving worker enters the water, huh

As Li Nanfang and Langya were greeting each other, Duan Xing who had been waiting for the opportunity, leaped into the river. The moment he plunged into the water, a triumphant thought crossed his mind:

It's not her fault she's smug, after all, even when Duan Ling entered the water haphazardly, the splashes he made weren't much different from a professional diver.

She jumped into the river ahead of Li Nanfang when he wasn't paying attention because she saw that her brother-in-law genuinely didn't want her to go with him.

It's not so much that I'm afraid she'll become a burden, but rather that something might happen to her.

Although the Duan family's reputation as the Four Phoenixes is illustrious, perhaps only Duan Xiang is truly capable.

As for Duan Xiangning and the other three, they were just kind people who wanted to curry favor with the Duan family. That's why they called the four sisters together as "Four Phoenixes".

Of course, Duan Xing's intelligence and talent in Si Huang are the highest, and she has a good nature. As long as Lao Duan is willing to spend his heart and soul on her cultivation, she may one day become a top figure in the Tai Mei circle.

These are all secondary.

Most importantly, as the segment leaped into the water with a carefree air, he was immediately engulfed by the icy coldness. Suddenly and inexplicably, he thought: "Grandpa, why insist on me seeing Shen Yun in person and taking that notebook myself"

As they were about to leave Duanjia Mountain Villa, Duan Lao had solemnly instructed this to Duan Xing and Li Nanfang, holding their hands tightly.

At that time, Duan Lingxi didn't think much of it.

Because she felt it was normal and confident that with her omnipotent brother-in-law's help, she could overcome all difficulties and complete the mission successfully.

This is also the reason why Li Nan repeatedly asked her to stay, and she insisted on not staying outside.

Only when she was about to jump into the water did she suddenly remember what Old Duan had said, and she realized something was wrong.

What's not right

His body rapidly descended, quickly reaching a depth of over twenty meters. Duan Xing might have been affected by the icy water temperature; his mind was unusually calm and his thoughts were racing faster than ever before. This gave him a possible thought: "Grandpa, he might want me to die."

Why did Lao Duan want to let Duan Lingxing die

She gave him her first kiss the moment she saw Li Nanshan.

Duan Lao could allow Duan Xiangning and Li Nanfang to be together, but he absolutely would not allow two granddaughters from the Duan family to serve one man.

Thus, for a top-tier family like the Duan clan, it would absolutely be a disgrace.

In an instant, Duan Xing again thought of more: "If I die here, Li Nanfang would blame himself for failing to protect me properly, and he would carry an extremely heavy psychological burden. He would have to go to great lengths to repay the Duan family."

Even after his memory returns, he'll still be like this.

It's not just me; Xiangning could also end up in the same situation as I am.

Only then will the Duan family achieve a better outcome.

Both of the two phoenixes in the Duan family's Four Phoenixes died before Li Nanfang's eyes, which best serves the Duan family's interests.

Otherwise, there would be no need for grandpa to send me along with my brother-in-law. He knows this place is so dangerous, and I'm nowhere near capable enough to handle the situation right now.

Hee hee.

"That's how it is."

Suddenly, I understood these fragments of thoughts, and a chuckle escaped my lips. My whole body relaxed.

With hands raised high above her head, she slowly lowered them and spread them wide.

The whole person felt like they were floating on the surface of a sea beneath the heavens, their body completely relaxed—but this wasn't the calm surface of a vacation spot. This was the bottom of a river with complex terrain, where currents and whirlpools could appear at any moment, dragging her into the depths of the Dragon River, a place that held secrets about life and death.

In such a harsh environment, only those with a tenacious will to survive would adopt this posture.

Duan Xing wished he was dead.

Since grandpa insists on letting her die, then she can't die.

Her death brought unspeakable benefits to the Duan family.

And she, had no choice at all, because she was the daughter of the Duan family, born with the burden to serve the Duan family's interests, even if it meant sacrificing her life.

No choice.

She would face her death with a serene indifference—no matter how much resentment she felt, how reluctant she was to leave this world, or even that innocent affection she possessed.

Actually, with her scattered intelligence, she should have thought of these things long ago.

She didn't expect that it was because many things happened at home, which made her have no time to think about this matter carefully. Instead, she was secretly delighted to be able to go on a mission with her brother-in-law.

A girl in the budding stage of love has a particularly sharp decline in intelligence.

Now she understood: "No wonder Grandpa drove Uncle Four and my dad away from the most crucial meeting, forbidding them to participate. Afterwards, he also instructed us not to leak the plan, fearing that my dad could see through his intentions and obstruct him."

Of course, when Lao Duan convened the meeting, he didn't specify who should be sent on the mission. He only said that a core member of the Duan family must accompany Li Nanfang throughout the process, find Shen Yun, and get the notebook.

Now that I think about it, besides Duan Lingxi, who else could come

The prime suspect in the intelligence leak case, Duan Chuhang, definitely cannot come.

Besides himself, who else in the Duan family could shoulder such a heavy responsibility

Second generation

Just look at his protruding belly, you can tell if he's up to the task.

Duan Jia Lao Si, Lao Wu brothers

Cut it out.

Those two guys who are usually quite noticeable at the Duan's place would probably want to bury their heads in their laps if they knew how dangerous this situation was.

Besides them, it could only be the Four Phoenixes of the Duan family.

Duan Xiangning has already been taken away by the military. Duan Xiang, the most capable, has a broken leg, and Duan Ning is too timid by nature—when you come down to it, only Duan Lingxing can hold his own.

Therefore, Duan Lingxing came.

Then she sank to the bottom of the water, dozens of meters deep, and died there.

"Grandpa really is resourceful."

Duàn Zīngxīng suddenly felt the water flow tremble, and a smile crossed his heart: "Though it's rather ruthless, for the future of the Duàn family, this is the only way. Alas, even now I'm still just a little Xū. As long as I don't use that place, I'm just a mere Xū"

She didn't know, before the seawater began to surge in and whirlpools formed beneath the Canglong River, how currents could suddenly begin to swirl so rapidly.

Anyway, she just thought about it.

Not only did I think about it, but I also regretted it.

I regretted that morning when I was urged by a ghost to whistle at Li Nanzhang, why didn't I just get on the ride.

Only when one is hurt, cries, and bleeds can she truly be called a woman.

This was the perfect life she had ever lived.

“If God gave me another chance, I would definitely get on it instead of foolishly blowing on it for so long. Anyway, from grandpa's point of view, there's not much difference between this and that—"

Sprawling his arms wide, Duan Xing just as he was about to let himself drift with the current, his head suddenly slammed into a rock.

Pain shot through her, and instinctively she opened her mouth and screamed: "Ah!"

Glug.

The icy, bitter river water immediately poured into her mouth.

She was a strong swimmer and didn't panic when being submerged. She would instinctively close her mouth, and her hands and feet would start working hard.

After a few tries, she gave up.

Since she had already decided to die according to her grandfather's arrangement, why struggle to the death when it came

Encircled by a death wish, Duan Lingxing suddenly opened his mouth wide, using all his might to shout in a piercing voice: "Li Nanfang, I love you. In my next life, I want to be your woman. I want—to sit on you!"

She screamed underwater, dozens of meters deep. No matter how loud she shouted, her voice couldn't travel more than three meters.

And when she cried out these words, she had already emptied her lungs of all air.

After exhaling all that air, even if Duan Lingxin didn't want to die, the chance of floating to the surface was gone.

Because she dove too deep.

The river water flowed back, and when the current suddenly accelerated it slammed against a protruding stone on the bank. When it rebounded quickly, it had already formed a whirlpool.

A whirlpool, much like a tornado, will grow larger and larger whenever it encounters the right conditions. Eventually, it becomes a force that is beyond human control.

Besides, Duan Zero didn't intend to fight back.

Buried in a growing, increasingly frantic vortex, Duan Lingxing felt like a leaf blown down by the cold wind, tumbling and swirling towards an even darker, colder, deeper place.

If there's a next life, I'll definitely sit on you.

This was Duan Xing, caught in the vortex. The last thought that flashed through his mind as his head crashed heavily against a rock once more.

Then, there was nothing but darkness.

Before dawn, the sky is always particularly dark.

It was during this time period that Duan Xiangning arrived at the bank of the Canglong River.

She, too, came from the dense forest area of the Sanba Line on horseback.

The person who answered her was the same person who had received Li Nanfang and the other two.

Unlike Duan Lingxing, Duan Xiangning learned how to ride horses because she lived in Jiangbei as a young mistress for several years.

Although Ma Yan wasn't particularly skilled, at least he didn't end up like Duan Lingxing, tied to a horse's back. At most, he'd cling tightly to the horse's neck, silently reciting riding techniques in his mind. He'd thrust his hips forward as much as possible to avoid chafing his inner thighs.

Accompanying Duan Xiangning to Canglong Mountain were two imposing young men who hadn't uttered a word the entire journey.

Duan Xiangning felt that these two young men were probably the highest-ranking active personnel in the Supreme Guard Bureau.

Only the highest-ranking active personnel would maintain their arrogant indifference in the face of national security threats.

Duan Xiangning wasn't mistaken, these two people were indeed the highest-ranking active members, sent by Jing Hong to protect her safety.

Du Xiangning must come here.

Because she was the "culprit" behind the leak of military intelligence from the Duan family, in Duan Shuchang's absence, she represented the Duan family to meet Li Nanfang and his companion at Longshan. Even if it was considered a meritorious act to redeem herself.

This was arranged by Old Man.

The head of the special investigation team, Wang Yulin, didn't say much.

After a long silence, Ke Jinghong said he had sent someone to escort Duan Xiangning here.

At the time, Wang Yulin didn't think much of it. Since General Jing Hong was willing to help with the logistics, he couldn't possibly refuse without losing face. Of course, he readily agreed.

Along the way, although the two men didn't say a word to Duan Xiangning and remained cold throughout, she could still sense a clear feeling of security from them.

Especially when she rode freely across the Third Line, there were many fierce beasts that appeared and tried to attack her. At those times, the two men would immediately stand by her side, drawing their gleaming sabers from their saddles and waving them left and right, scaring away those beasts.

Although she understood some martial arts, Duan Xiangning still felt pain in her legs when she walked out of the forest. Walking was quite uncomfortable.

"They should be getting in the water here."

The guide pointed to the large rock where Li Nanfang had once sat and said to Duan Xiangning.

"Hmm."

When Duan Xiangning nodded, the guide suddenly picked up his phone: “Excuse me, I have a call to take.”

She didn't mind, waving her hand and slowly walking towards the riverbank.

The two who were responsible for her protection, the highest ranking active duty personnel, looked at each other and just as they were about to chase after her, the leader suddenly said: “You two, who will answer our leader’s call”
