Chapter 88: Disaster Strikes from the Sky While You're Sitting in the House (Part 2)



Tang Chen, overjoyed, carefully took the Phoenix Coronet in his hands. He raised it to see if he could put it on by himself. But in a split second, the pearls on the Phoenix Coronet flashed with a cold light and fell to the ground. A large gash appeared on Tang Chen's arm, and blood flowed out.

Wang Yanzhou didn't react for a moment, and stood there with a smile on his face. When Tang Chen fell to the ground and lost consciousness, he seemed to be still in the moment when Tang Chen held the phoenix crown.

The people who were shopping in the store saw someone lying in a pool of blood. They were in a panic and fled in all directions, fearing that they would be affected. Liang Shuyi wanted to find Tang Chen and take her away temporarily, but she found that the person on the ground was her: "A Chen!"

After noticing the blade's gleam, Chen Xin chased after him and hasn't returned yet. Seeing Wang Yanzhou dazed at this moment, Liang Shuyi ignored everything else and stepped on him: "Why are you dazed? Save him!"

When Chen Xin returned from outside, everyone in the store had already fled. Seeing that Tang Chen was in trouble, Shopkeeper Jin hurriedly took care of the situation in the store while sending for a doctor. Chen Xin and the doctor provided emergency treatment to Tang Chen and quickly transferred him to the clinic. Although the bleeding had stopped, not to mention the excessive blood loss, it would take some effort to replenish it. The biggest problem now was that the blade had been poisoned. The poison was fierce, and if they waited for them to find the antidote, Tang Chen would have already passed away.

"My Lord, the blade is poisoned and an antidote is urgently needed."

"Except for leaving guards at a few important locations, chase down the rest. Once you get the antidote, kill them all without mercy."

"yes."

When Hei Ya regained consciousness and freed himself from the ropes, returning to the inn, he heard that Tang Chen was concerned about the incident at Huangfang. When he arrived at the clinic, Liang Shuyi was standing at the door, weeping uncontrollably. Tang Chen's face was as pale as paper, and his breathing was gradually weakening.

"……hateful!"

Seeing Heiya just coming back and about to leave, Liang Shuyi sobbed and asked, "It's already this late, where are you going?"

"Find an antidote."

Wang Yanzhou, who was guarding Tang Chen in the room, heard the word "antidote" and came out with his sword in hand, pointing the tip of the sword directly at Hei Ya's heart: "Do you know who did this? Tell me!"

Black Crow looked at the dying person in the room, his hands clenched into fists: "...Yes, Princess Shuyang."

"Shu Yang? Fine, since she doesn't like Yan Shaoqing, then I'll let her go somewhere better." After saying this, Wang Yanzhou looked back at the person on the bed and sheathed his sword. The next time the cold blade is drawn, it will be sacrificed with blood.

"Shuyi, take good care of her and wait for me to come back."

The two men who set out to find Shu Yang for the antidote did not discover her whereabouts until the evening in a secret place in the city.

Shu Yang knew she couldn't trap Black Crow, so after Liuying reported that Black Crow had escaped, she didn't say much. Her goal had been achieved, and now she just had to wait for Black Crow to come to her.

After knocking down the guards outside the door, Black Crow kicked the door open and said, "Bring me the antidote."

Shu Yang was leisurely sipping tea while pretending to be crazy and said, "What antidote? I don't know what you are talking about."

It has been a long time since Tang Chen was poisoned. Even if Chen Xin and several other famous doctors in the capital were present, without the antidote, Tang Chen's fate would not have changed at all.

The situation was critical at the moment, and Hei Ya didn't want to waste words with Shu Yang anymore. The hidden sword in his sleeve quietly slipped into his palm; Hei Ya subdued Shu Yang with a backhand. With a force, a long and thin blood mark appeared on Shu Yang's white neck, and blood beads slowly emerged from the wound.

"I don't want to say it again, yes or no."

Seeing Shu Yang in Hei Ya's hands, Liu Ying didn't dare to act rashly because her own martial arts skills were not up to par. After Shu Yang felt the pain in his body, he turned his head away and asked through gritted teeth, "Is she really that important to you?"

At this moment, Black Crow truly lived up to his name. At this moment, he truly became the face of death, fear, and doom.

"She is my only 'relative' in this world. I can't allow anyone to hurt her!"

Hearing this, Shu Yang suddenly turned around and looked at Hei Ya: "She, she is your sister?"

Shu Yang had only thought about getting rid of this woman who had suddenly appeared beside Black Crow and occupied most of his time. He hadn't considered that he actually knew nothing about Black Crow. He was so anxious right now. If that woman was really his sister, if something happened to her, she would have no chance in her life!

Thinking of this, Shu Yang took off the small porcelain bottle hanging around her neck without saying a word. Seeing this, Black Crow also slowly removed the hidden blade from her neck.

"Here is the antidote, take it."

At this moment, Hei Ya no longer trusted Shu Yang as much as before. The porcelain bottle was right in front of him, but he had no intention of taking it.

Shu Yang knew that he had crossed his bottom line this time. Without saying anything, he took out a small, tear-shaped pill from the porcelain bottle and swallowed it. Then, with a hint of apology, he said, "Don't worry, it's not poison. The poison I used is very toxic. If you want to save her safely, you'd better return with the medicine quickly."

After watching Hei Ya hurried away, Liu Ying rushed over to help Shu Yang treat the wound on his neck. Shu Yang knew he was in the wrong, but thinking that Tang Chen would only suffer a little, it wouldn't matter, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, Hei Ya's departure didn't mean that no one would come to question him anymore.

Wang Yanzhou, who had been observing the situation secretly, asked Hei Ya to take the medicine back to the clinic first after confirming that he had obtained the antidote. He then stood in front of Shu Yang with a long sword in his hand and Deng Huo.

"Why, are you relieved now?"

When Shu Yang heard this strange yet familiar voice, his pupils suddenly contracted: "This voice is!"

Wang Yanzhou looked around the room and slowly walked up to Shu Yang. "Shu Yang, I haven't seen you for a few years. You seem to have improved a lot."

After Shu Yang confirmed that the person in front of him was undoubtedly Wang Yanzhou, he quickly bent down and bowed deeply to him: "Greetings to the Emperor's uncle. I never thought I would see the Emperor's uncle in the capital. Please forgive Shu Yang for not coming to greet you from afar."

Wang Yanzhou lifted Shu Yang's chin with his scabbard and said disgustedly, "How dare you touch my people? Who do you think you are? Your mother, the crown prince, or your father?"

"...Shu Yang does not know what crime he has committed. I hope the uncle will explain it clearly."

This person, like her ruthless mother, puts on a charming and kind face, but she delights in the vicious and sinister deeds of travelers. "I am afraid that Shuyang has grown old and has forgotten even the rules of etiquette. Is what you did today the behavior of a princess of a great country?"
