Chapter 72 The Patriarch in Danger



Chapter 72 The head of the family in danger

Gu Yaner's face was pale. If it were before, she would have fought back, but now she had no capital to fight back, so she could only grit her teeth and endure it.

She couldn't help but feel regret in her heart. If she had known that this would be the result, she would not have mixed with Zhao Yingying and the others. Jiang Jiusheng was really too weird!

From the beginning to now, she always felt that all this was related to Jiang Jiusheng, but she couldn't find the reason. Even if she found it, she was afraid that she would not have the capital to deal with it now.

...

Jiang Jiusheng bought some things to prepare for the training and went back, only to find out that the academy had postponed the time for the training.

"Why postpone it for no reason?"

"There have been some unusual movements in the mountains recently. The academy is worried that we will be in danger after we go there, so it has been postponed." Jun Si explained.

Hearing this, Jiang Jiusheng understood a little, "Do you know what the unusual movement is?"

"It seems that there are monsters giving birth to cubs near the place where we usually practice. The territory is extremely sensitive. The instructor is worried that if we anger the monsters after we go there, they will attack us in groups."

Luo Zishang sighed, "I think this is a good opportunity. If we are lucky, it would be nice to contract a monster. How rare is it to get a monster cub now? Not to mention the sky-high prices of monster cubs sold on weekdays, you can't even buy them."

"Do you want to try?" Jun Si raised his eyes and glanced at him.

"That's not necessary. I know my own abilities." Luo Zishang smiled awkwardly. Their current cultivation level was considered good among the young men in Tianlong City, but it was not good enough in the mountains. Although

the monster cubs were good, it would be more terrible if they were eaten by monsters without the ability.

"That's fine."

Jiang Jiusheng didn't take it to heart. It just so happened that his father's illness had not been cured yet. It would take some time. In addition to taking medicine, acupuncture would be the best effect.

"I heard that something happened in Baibao Pavilion today. Are you okay?"

Jun Si looked at the person in front of him. The pair of watery and bright eyes were the most beautiful he had ever seen. He was amazed when he saw them for the first time.

"I'm fine. I just taught the annoying person a lesson." Jiang Jiusheng smiled slightly. "I'm not the same person I was before. I'm not someone who is easily bullied."

In her eyes, Jun Si is a kind-hearted person. Although he looks cold and unkind, he has a good nature. He must have helped her because he knew about her past experiences and couldn't bear to see them. She wanted him to know that she would never fall into that situation again.

Looking at the lively face of the girl when she talked about this, Jun Si's eyes flashed with tenderness that he had never noticed. He chuckled and said, "Let me know when you need help in the future."

"Hmm?" Jiang Jiusheng raised his eyes.

Jun Si restrained his emotions, raised his eyebrows lazily, showing his uninhibited nature, "I'll protect you, and there's also Old Qin here, so why not use it?"

Jiang Jiusheng: "..." This sentence seemed familiar.

In the next few days, Jiang Jiusheng began to practice in seclusion. He had already practiced the Speed ​​​​Step to a small success, and there was still a little distance to reach the great success, so there was no need to rush.

Improving cultivation was even more urgent.

Five days later, he finally broke through to the third level of the Marrow Refining Realm.

Compared to her smooth sailing, the Zhao family was in chaos.

"The head of the family is now infected with this disease and can't see anyone at all, not to mention that this matter has caused the whole family to be laughed at. I think he is not suitable to continue to be the head of the family."

"That makes sense. Only by changing the head of the family can the impact of this matter be reduced."

Zhao Yangzhou listened to the discussions and became so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. "Don't forget, the reason why the Zhao family has been getting better and better in recent years is because of my leadership!" "

Your contribution to the family is obvious to all, but the impact it has caused now is also real. Head of the family, you and your wife are already like this. How do you think you can lead the Zhao family in the future?"

The person who spoke was wearing a veil, and he looked so evasive that he even covered his mouth and nose when he spoke, worried that he would be infected by Zhao Yangzhou and the others. It would have been fine if

it was just a willow disease, at least it had no effect on the words, but the lady said it was a poison and it was contagious, which made everyone even more scared.

Zhao Yangzhou looked at the expressions of the people, and a strong sense of powerlessness surged in his heart. If this disease could not be cured, he would have to give up the position of the head of the family. He was in unbearable pain all over his body now. If it were not for his strong willpower, he would have been unable to hold back at this moment.

Thinking of all this, he almost wanted to strangle Zhao Yingying to death!

If he had known that Zhao Yingying would cause such trouble, it would have been better to clean up the family directly!

"Give me a little more time. If you still can't find a cure, I will give up the position of the head of the family."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of others lit up, and they immediately decided that it would only be seven days at most.

Zhao Xiuwan, who returned to the house, was anxious after learning about this, "Master, how could you agree to them giving up the position of master?"

"Do you think I want to? If you hadn't let Yingying go, how could I have fallen to this point?"

Zhao Yangzhou, who had been patient to the extreme, could no longer hold back and roared angrily, "It's all your fault! A loving mother spoils her children. She only gave birth to a daughter in so many years, and taught her to be like this. What's the use of you?"

Zhao Xiuwan was scolded and kept silent. Even though she loved Zhao Yingying, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed at this moment.

If it weren't for her, they wouldn't have fallen into this situation. Not to mention that her whole body was itchy and unbearable, once she lost her status as the master's wife, so many people would laugh at her!

"The miracle doctor you mentioned before, doesn't have a cure?" Zhao Yangzhou asked. Zhao

Xiuwan shook her head, "No, he said it was indeed poisoning, but this poison is extremely strange, it is not something that ordinary people can cure, even he can't do it."

"Who did Yingying offend?" Zhao Yangzhou couldn't help but get angry. If they could catch the person who poisoned her, they could find a solution, but now there is no clue at all, that is really hopeless.

"Master, I heard a piece of news. Lu's Auction House said there is a kind of elixir that can cure Liu's disease."

"Really?"

"I have sent someone to ask, and it is true, but the elixir costs one million taels."

"How much?" Zhao Yangzhou turned his eyes away in disbelief, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

Zhao Xiuwan looked unhappy. "You heard me right. It's one million taels. No matter what I say, I'm determined to get this price."

"This is clearly intentional! Is the Lu family crazy? Who gave them the courage?"

Zhao Yangzhou's face was as gloomy as water. He knew the people in the Lu family, and none of them had any ability. Now that they saw that they were in trouble, they wanted to make a fortune?

"Master, don't be angry. This pill is not from the Lu family auction house. Someone just consigned it to them. The price was set when the pill was placed there."
