Chapter 568 This time I've been exposed in a huge way, the fortune teller is also you? [2 updates]
Madam Xu and the steward were just taken to the court by Yunshan.
The head of the Xu family was still lying on the ground, lifeless.
Those medicinal herbs certainly cannot be used to make any deadly poisons, but that is from the perspective of ordinary ancient doctors.
Ying Zijin only needs to change the weight of the medicinal herbs and the order in which they are placed in the furnace to refine new pills.
This pill is highly beneficial for healthy people.
However, the head of the Xu family was already in a weakened state. The overly nourishing medicine not only failed to cure his poison, but also caused his body to succumb to its excessive potency, leading to his death.
Fu Chen hurriedly followed: "Aunt... this is Miss Ying."
He then said to the girl, "Miss Ying, this is my aunt."
Ying Zijing looked up, her face now fully exposed to view.
Fu Xi's fingers trembled even more violently as she struggled to control her emotions: "Get out."
Fu Chen was taken aback: "Huh?"
Fu Xi didn't want to say another word. With a wave of her hand, she created a gust of wind that blew Fu Chen away.
Ying Zijing paused for a moment.
Fu Chen landed on his bottom, nearly breaking into eight pieces, and was somewhat dizzy.
Before he could react, the door slammed shut.
The next second, Fu Xi's internal energy completely enveloped the room.
His martial arts skills were not as high as hers, so he had no way of knowing what was going on inside.
The room was very quiet.
Fu Xi took a deep breath and knelt down in front of the girl.
Her voice trembled, and her throat choked with emotion: "Disciple Fuxi greets Master."
This is clearly not a face.
But Fu Xi knew that this was the master who had brought her out of the slums.
Ying Zijin taught her for three years, passing on to her the arts of alchemy and acupuncture.
This enabled her to establish the Fu family and the Tianyi Sect.
Although it's not the same face anymore, her master is now more vibrant, more lively, and more down-to-earth.
In other words, he is a living, breathing person.
Unlike before, it was like a heartless, unyielding rock, unshakable by anything.
"Don't kneel." Ying Zijing remained silent for a long time before speaking softly, "A lot of time has passed, and I don't like this kind of cumbersome etiquette."
“My master has given me a second life.” Fu Xi did not get up, but bowed again. “Don’t even mention kneeling, it would be right for me to give my life to my master.”
The kindness of a wise teacher is truly greater than heaven and earth, and even more profound than that of one's parents.
She was an orphan from a young age, and the only person who ever taught her was Ying Zijin.
Time seemed to have turned back to a long time ago.
Ying Zijin remained silent and did not speak.
She had thought about dying, but she never imagined that she would return to Earth and meet her old friends again.
This was all beyond her expectations.
She never even imagined that someone would remember her for so long.
Ying Zijing picked up a tissue and gently wiped away Fu Xi's tears.
She is even more soft-hearted when it comes to women.
If Caesar Laurent tried to make her cry, she would ignore him completely.
Fu Xi finally recovered. She stood up and asked earnestly, "Master, is this your real name?"
Ying Zijing threw the tissue into the trash can: "Yes, my surname is Ying, and my given name is Zijing."
Fu Xi murmured, "That's wonderful."
In her lifetime, she will still be able to know what her master's real name is.
The door was pushed open at that moment.
Fu Xi's expression changed, and she suddenly turned her head to look.
Upon seeing the man, she let out a soft sound of surprise: "Huh? It's you?"
She remembered Fu Yunshen.
Because no one has visited the ancient medical community more times than Fu Yunshen, and each time he comes, he is on the verge of death.
She was still wondering if he would survive.
Fu Yunshen nodded slightly and smiled: "Senior Fu Xi, thank you for your help."
Fu Xi frowned but did not answer. Instead, she looked at the girl first.
Ying Zijing took the hot juice from Fu Yunshen's hand: "He can know."
Fu Xi didn't ask why, but simply replied respectfully, "Yes, Master."
The moment that name was uttered, there was an instant, deathly silence.
Fu Yunshen remained calm, his eyebrows twitching slightly.
Fu Chen, who had followed him in, was truly shocked and collapsed to his knees: "Master, Master?"
Ying Zijin was the master of his Fu family ancestor.
Holy crap?
This is truly unbelievable.
Fu Chen knew very well that even if he could cultivate to the point of preserving his youthful appearance and increasing his lifespan, he would absolutely not be able to change his bone age.
According to the records of the Dan Alliance, Ying Zijin's bone age is 18, almost 19.
What's going on?
Fu Chen's mind was completely blank.
Fu Yunshen turned his head: "Going to eat?"
"Eat steak."
"Yes, a hug?"
"Um."
He bent down, picked up the girl, and walked outside.
Fu Xi stood frozen in place, as if struck by lightning, for the first time ever.
Fu Chen finally calmed down for a while, then saw Fu Xi's expression and asked in surprise, "Ancestor? What's wrong?"
Fu Xi clutched her chest and murmured, "Slow down, I need to slow down."
Her master, that iron tree, actually blossomed?!
Fu Xi felt that this was even more fantastical than seeing her master again in her lifetime.
Fu Chen: "..."
He felt that he was the one who needed to slow down.
Why is a girl younger than him considered his ancestor?
Moreover, he even told Fu Xi to choose Ying Zijin as her successor.
Fu Chen wanted to slap himself.
But these are not the main points.
The main point is that his plan to sleep and slack off has failed once again.
**
Fu Yunshen also owns many properties in the ancient martial arts world.
Houses in the ancient martial arts world are different from those outside; they can't be bought with money alone, you have to rely on your strength.
This place is by a lake, and there are a few swans on the lake.
On the other side, Yunwu was fiddling with the barbecue grill.
The two sat down in the courtyard.
Ying Zijing yawned and lazily looked at the stars.
“Yaoyao, I have a question.” Fu Yunshen turned to the side, pinched her face with his hand, and said in a low voice, “Look, you are Vera Hall, you are Gwen Brown, you are Fu Xi’s master. I’m under a lot of pressure.”
These identities all happened to emerge in the same era.
17th century.
Although the first two are in O continent, the last one is in China.
Ying Zijing didn't speak, but her eyelashes fluttered.
Fu Yunshen had already guessed it when Ilna called out Gwen Brown's name to her during the ISC International Finals.
She also told him that she had died once for her best friend.
Fu Yunshen's IQ has never been low; on the contrary, it is astonishingly high.
In addition, since they spend so much time together, if he can't see something, she might need to question whether her judgment is flawed.
"I just want to know, how many other identities do you have?" Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow. "You wouldn't happen to be... the fortune teller, would you? You can tell fortunes too, huh, Yaoyao?"
This time, Ying Zijing didn't push him away, but she wasn't swayed by his voice either.
She said calmly, "I forgot to tell you, the second time we bumped into each other in front of the pharmacy, I felt you looked familiar."
This statement is true.
Just like when she met Yue Fuyi, Ling Mianxi and Yu Xuesheng, she also sensed a certain familiarity.
But none of them felt as strongly as Fu Yunshen.
“This is not a very good way to change the subject.” Fu Yunshen chuckled as he pressed his forehead against hers. “However, my abilities are indeed beyond those of ordinary people. Sometimes I feel like I learn things very quickly, and some skills seem to be innate.”
"Well, maybe the difference between you and me is that I don't have any memories of the past."
"That's good." Ying Zijin leaned on his shoulder. "You won't have to feel guilty anymore."
She also knew why she liked him.
Because only in front of him can she be a child.
**
The commotion on the Xu family patriarch's side had already alarmed the entire Xu family.
But nobody cared; on the contrary, they were happy to see it happen.
With the death of the Xu family head, his power was disintegrated, which was just the right time for them to take over.
Fu Xi killed many of Xu family guards, including the elders.
However, the Xu family's ancestor could only keep quiet because his ancient martial arts cultivation was only a little over two hundred years old, and he was not as strong as Fu Xi.
Anyway, the Xu family wasn't wiped out.
With the death of the Xu family head, a new family head was chosen very quickly.
Xu Bai successfully ascended to the position of family head.
The guards reported to him what had happened that day.
"Poisoned to death?" Xu Bai frowned. "Are you sure it was the ancient doctor who poisoned him?"
"Confirmed." The guard clasped his hands in a fist salute. "They invited Ying Zijing, the newly promoted genius alchemist of the Pill Alliance, but the Xu family head died after consuming the medicine she concocted."
"Tsk." Xu Bai said indifferently, "This matter has nothing to do with us. The ancient medical community will make its own decision. Pass down the order: from now on, Ying Zijin is not to be provoked by anyone."
"The Xu family will withdraw from all struggles and focus on development."
He didn't know who the woman who broke into the Xu family today was, but she was obviously there for Ying Zijing.
The Xu family suffered heavy losses this time, with the deaths of three ancient martial arts masters.
Xu Bai then asked, "How did the Fifth Elder die?"
The guard shook his head: "We haven't found out yet, but it's probably that woman who killed him."
Xu Bai nodded and then stopped worrying about it.
After he had sorted out the affairs, he began to eliminate all of the Xu family head's henchmen.
**
The massacre of the Xu family was a shameful affair, so naturally, it wouldn't be spread far and wide.
The only information the ancient medical community had was that someone in the Xu family had died.
Most importantly, the head of the Xu family died after taking Ying Zijing's medicine.
This caused a huge uproar.
Because Ying Zijin's reputation is indeed quite high now, the Dan Alliance held a meeting overnight.
The deputy leaders and hall masters all participated.
"Ancient doctors can only use their medical skills to save lives, how can they kill people?" Master Fang sneered. "She has violated medical ethics and the rules established by our ancient medical system. How is she any different from those insidious ancient doctors like Shi Fengyi?"
"I suggest that we abolish her internal energy so that she can no longer practice medicine."
I recently had a really strange dream, the plot of which was similar to fighting monsters and searching for weapons in a game.
The worst part is that I restarted this dream five times in one night. The first four times I died in the dream, but I finally succeeded on the fifth. I have no idea what I was even sleeping through T^T
