In their previous lives, Su Yin, her mother, and her sister-in-law were brutally mu*dered by a mob. In a twist of fate, all three were reborn together.
Before the mob could reach their villag...
Jiuyou quickly stood up and chased in the direction that Guard Lin pointed. When he reached the corner of the street, he saw several pedestrians walking in the alley.
"Which one?"
Guard Lin took a look and shook his head at the other party, "No."
Jiuyou did not stop and continued to chase forward, searching the surrounding streets with this street as the center.
Guard Lin had been chasing after him. When he saw Jiuyou stop, he quickly ran to his side, panting heavily, "Maybe I saw it wrong."
Jiuyou did not respond, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes scanning the area.
"When you go back, draw the man's appearance and send people to wait in this area." Jiuyou ordered.
Guard Lin dared not disobey, "Okay!"
Jiuyou looked back at him, with a warning in his tone, "This is your chance to make up for your mistakes."
Guard Lin's body trembled, and at that moment it seemed that his innermost thoughts were seen through.
Deep down in his heart he was unwilling to do so.
First, if that person is found, it means that he has neglected his duty and did not tell the Marquis the information in the first place.
Second, because Xu Lanzhi's repeated self-righteous behavior led to her being severely punished, he had resentment towards her in his heart. When he heard the news of her death, he felt a sense of relief that she deserved it.
He really disliked Xu Lanzhi. This woman was arrogant, domineering and looked down on everyone. On the contrary, the Marquis's wife was what a Marquis's wife should be like.
He couldn't understand why the Marquis was so blind. He didn't want a virtuous wife like the Marquis's wife, but instead wanted a pretentious woman like Xu Lanzhi.
Now that his thoughts have been seen through, Guard Lin no longer dares to think that way. If he still dares to do so, Jiuyou will definitely tell the Marquis the truth, and by that time, he will have no way out but death.
"I see."
"I have something to do, you go back by yourself."
Jiuyou turned and left. He still had to go to the branch of the Dark Pavilion to urge them to speed up the progress.
Dark Chamber Headquarters
The ten hall masters gathered together. Today the Pavilion Master brought all of them together. Every hall master had a puzzled look on their face, not knowing the Pavilion Master's purpose. Some began to tentatively ask the people around them.
"Today is the tenth day of the lunar month. If you don't take the antidote, you will... Hey, how come there is no movement until now, and you have gathered everyone here. What do you think the Pavilion Master means?" The Tenth Hall Master spoke, his eyes sweeping over the faces of everyone present.
The Sixth Hall Master's eyes rolled around and his gaze fell on the Seventh Hall Master. "Seventh Hall Master, you have been with the Pavilion Master for a long time. Do you know why?"
The head of the seventh hall looked tired. In order to complete the task assigned by the pavilion master, everyone in the seven halls was mobilized and did not dare to delay for a moment.
The Pavilion Master said that he would give them half a year, so they must complete it within half a month, otherwise everyone in their entire hall would have no way out.
The Pavilion Master is definitely capable of killing an entire gang of people in one breath.
Therefore, everyone in the Seventh Hall was extremely exhausted during this period, especially him as the hall master, who could only rest for one or two hours a day at most.
Now that he was named, the Seventh Hall Master looked at the Sixth Hall Master with his eyes turning blue and black, "Look at what I have here."
"You've been so tired lately, Seventh Brother, you should take care of your health." The Sixth Hall Master said these concerned words, but there was no concern in his tone, instead there was a hint of gloating.
The one who could torture him like this must have been given a task by the Pavilion Master.
The Sixth Hall Master looked at the others, "Have you heard any news?"
No one in the field responded to him.
The Sixth Hall Master suddenly felt bored and shut his mouth.
After they waited for an hour, Su Xinguang came out with a group of medicine boys.
The ten hall masters all knew these medicine boys. They would often pass messages on behalf of the Pavilion Master. As soon as they came out, they knew that the Pavilion Master had given instructions.
Su Xinguang stood in the first place, and the other medicine boys stood behind him. He waved his hand, and the medicine boys immediately distributed the porcelain bottles to the hands of each hall master.
"Hall masters, this is the antidote for this month." Su Xinguang said.
After the ten hall masters got the antidote, they took it one after another. If they didn't take it, they would die in a few hours.
As for the people under them, they had already distributed the antidotes for this month. Unfortunately, those antidotes were useless to the ten hall masters. Because the poison they took was different from that of the people below, the antidotes were naturally different.
Su Xinguang deliberately chose this time point just to make these hall masters take his special poison as soon as possible. As long as he could control the ten hall masters, there would be no need to worry about the people below.
Now he is too weak to sit on the seat of Pavilion Master with dignity, but it won’t be long before he will stand in front of everyone in broad daylight.
After seeing them all take the antidote, Su Xinguang was satisfied.
The so-called Qianji poison is the poison originally in their bodies, plus the poison they mix themselves, which undergoes a change and forms the so-called 'Qianji poison'.
This was something he had spent more than ten years to prepare in his previous life.
No one in this world can cure this poison except him.
Soon after taking it, the ten hall masters immediately noticed the difference.
Su Xinguang noticed the slightly changed expressions of each hall master, and his lips curled slightly. The ten hall masters were indeed second only to the Pavilion Master, and they were all top-notch masters in both martial arts and internal strength.
The Second Hall Master grabbed a medicine boy and asked, "What's going on?"
“This is not a cure at all.”
The hall masters were furious.
The medicine boys were trembling with fear.
Facing the cold and stern aura of the ten hall masters, Su Xinguang's face turned pale, but he still spoke calmly, "Hall masters, calm down. This is the latest poison refined by the Pavilion Master."
"What!"
"Pulling machine poison?"
"What is the Pavilion Master going to do?"
"Why did you suddenly change the poison?"
Su Xinguang continued, "Please rest assured, all the hall masters, the previous toxins will be absorbed by the latest Qianji poison. From now on, all the hall masters only need to take the Qianji poison antidote once every three months, which will save each hall master from taking it every month."
"The Pavilion Master is doing this for the consideration of all the Hall Masters and everyone in the Dark Pavilion. Are you not going to accept the Pavilion Master's kindness?"
After the last sentence was spoken, no one in the hall dared to refute it.
The Sixth Hall Master smiled and said, "The Pavilion Master has really taken great pains for us. I, Old Six, will definitely remember this kindness in my heart."
Other hall masters spoke up one after another, but some remained silent and were unwilling to say more.
They are not stupid, so they naturally know what this poison is, and this is to better control them.
They could clearly feel that this time the poison was more powerful than the previous soul-stimulating powder.
The Sixth Hall Master asked Su Xinguang with a smile on his face, "Little Medicine Boy, does the Pavilion Master have any other instructions?"
