The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 52 Taking the Opportunity to Set a Fire

Just as Qi Yuxuan was about to get up to find the Healer, Yun Feiyang and Liu Qingluo said to him, "Young Master, since Ah San said that the poison might have been put in by the female demon Qiu, you should go directly to that demon to find the antidote. It will definitely save Miss Li."

“There’s no rush. What Ah San said may not be true. Although Qiu Ziyue is a bit unruly, her dancing skills are extremely high. There’s no need for her to use such underhanded tricks. We can’t frame others without solid evidence. I’ll go find Lei Xinzhen first and then we’ll talk,” Qi Yuxuan said.

As Qi Yuxuan was leaving, he walked to Qi Yushuang's side, his heart filled with reluctance.

"Yu Shuang, you must wait for me to come back!"

Qi Yuxuan said softly, then turned and left the mansion.

He mounted his horse and galloped off toward the Hall of Righteousness.

The two guards knew that Lei Xinzhen was a man who would only show respect if Qi Yuxuan went in person.

Upon arriving at Juyi Hall, a man in his forties was sitting at a stone table, sipping tea. He was none other than the legendary healer, Lei Xinzhen.

"Immortal Doctor Lei, we have come to ask for your help."

Qi Yuxuan said respectfully, his tone tinged with anxiety.

Lei Xinzhen glanced at Qi Yuxuan, then smiled slightly: "Oh? What brings Young Master Qi to my humble abode?"

Qi Yuxuan stepped forward and explained his purpose.

What is the condition of that young woman who was poisoned?

Lin Mohan described in detail the symptoms of Qi Yushuang's poisoning.

Upon hearing that Qi Yushuang had been poisoned, Lei Xinzhen secretly plotted in his mind that his opportunity had arrived. He could use this opportunity to frame Qiu Ziyue and leave her with nowhere to stand.

Lei Xinzhen slowly said, "Saving lives is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, and I am willing to go."

Qi Yuxuan thanked him.

The two men rode swiftly to Qi Yushuang's side, only to find her pale and weak, clearly in a very dangerous state.

Lei Xinzhen stepped forward to take Qi Yushuang's pulse, and then took out several herbs from his medicine box and prepared a decoction.

After drinking it, Qi Yushuang's complexion regained some color, and her breathing became much more stable.

“This is only a temporary symptom-relieving drug,” Lei Xinzhen said. “The poison is called Flower Beauty and Moonfall Powder. If a person comes into contact with this poison, he will become weak all over and eventually die of exhaustion. Even a person with a beautiful face will wither away and die of old age. To completely cure the poison, we still need to find the person who made the poison.”

Qi Yuxuan exclaimed, "Thank you so much, Senior Lei. We will find the person who made the drugs as soon as possible."

Just as he was talking to Lei Xinzhen, a scout rushed over and whispered a few words to the guard Yun Feiyang, who then reported back to Qi Yuxuan.

"Young master, I have something important to tell you."

Qi Yuxuan asked, "Speak, what is it?"

Yun Feiyang took a deep breath, steadied himself, and slowly said, "We have made new progress regarding Miss Qi's poisoning that day."

"Someone saw the female demon Qiu and a woman backstage sprinkling poison on a dress."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuxuan's heart skipped a beat, and his face instantly turned ashen.

His hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force. He was furious, practically spitting fire. "What did you say?!"

Qi Yuxuan's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth, his eyes flashing with anger.

The scout nodded and continued, "Liu Xu and that Qiu fellow secretly sprinkled poison on Miss Qi's dress backstage before leaving the scene."

Qi Yuxuan's anger erupted again, and he said through gritted teeth, "Qiu Ziyue... she actually did such a thing!"

He turned to Yun Feiyang and said, "Okay, let's leave it at that for now. Let me think about it and then decide what to do next."

Yun Feiyang nodded and stepped aside.

Lei Xinzhen smiled slightly, thinking to himself, "Qiu Ziyue, let's see how you explain this. Your good days are over."

Lei Xinzhen wanted to seize the opportunity to stir up trouble, so he smiled slightly at Qi Yuxuan and said, "Young Master Qi, I didn't want to say much, but seeing Miss Li suffering from the poison makes me feel very depressed, so I might as well share my views on this matter, if that's alright."

Qi Yuxuan looked at Lei Xinzhen with suspicion and politely said that he would like to hear the details.

Lei Xinzhen sighed, seemingly hesitant to speak, but finally decided to say, "Young Master Qi, there are actually some unknown secrets behind Miss Yushuang's poisoning."

Qi Yuxuan frowned and asked, "What secret?"

Lei Xinzhen said in a deep voice, "Qiu Ziyue is not as simple as you think. Under heaven, we have been practicing martial arts for decades, while this little girl in her teens can use mystical arts to cause chaos. There is no reason why the rumors in the martial arts world say that she is a female demon."

Seeing Qi Yuxuan remain silent, Lei Xinzhen continued, "Her mystical arts are probably an evil art, harming people, trafficking people, poisoning—how many things has she done?"

Qi Yuxuan stared at Lei Xinzhen in shock, thinking, "Is Qiu Ziyue really that kind of person? How could she be like that?"

Lei Xinzhen shook his head, his eyes filled with regret: "I know this is hard to accept, but that's the truth. She wanted to gain your trust so that she could control the martial arts world. It was all a conspiracy of hers."

A surge of anger and unease welled up in Qi Yuxuan's heart. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh: "I don't believe it! I want to see the evidence with my own eyes!"

Lei Xinzhen nodded and said, "Young Master Qi, have you really fallen for that little girl? I advise you not to be soft-hearted. For the sake of the righteous path of the martial world, we must get rid of this female demon as soon as possible."

Qi Yuxuan gritted his teeth and nodded: "I will find out the truth. Thank you for the reminder, Senior Lei."

Lei Xinzhen patted Qi Yuxuan on the shoulder, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes, before turning and leaving.

On his way back, Lei Xinzhen's smile became even more pronounced.

He knew that as long as they lit a fire, their five gangs' plan would already be more than half successful.

Thinking about Lei Xinzhen's words, Qi Yuxuan realized that the news had spread throughout the martial arts world that Qi Yushuang was poisoned by Qiu Ziyue.

This news pierced Qi Yuxuan's heart like a sharp sword, leaving him unable to remain calm.

Qi Yuxuan thought and thought, but for a moment he didn't know what to do, so he thought of discussing with the other three handsome men what to do.

Qi Yuxuan fired the signal flare that the three of them had agreed upon; once the signal was fired, the four of them would gather together.

Soon, the four handsome men gathered together.

"Brother Yuxuan, what happened?" Muguangcheng asked with concern.

Qi Yuxuan took a deep breath and slowly said, "There's a rumor in the martial arts world that Yu Shuang was poisoned because Qiu Ziyue poisoned her. Have you heard of this rumor?"

Twilight City frowned and shook his head: "I've heard the rumor too, but I don't believe Miss Qiu would do such a thing."

At this moment, Yin Lihen and Chu Yujue also walked in; they had obviously heard what Muguangcheng said.

Yin Lihen remained nonchalant and said, "Rumors in the martial arts world are often hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood, so we can't believe them easily. Besides, I find Miss Qiu very lovely, and given her strength, she doesn't need to resort to such underhanded tactics. Why would she poison someone?"

Chu Yuqiu nodded in agreement: "That's right, the martial arts world is always full of rumors. Some of them may be rumors deliberately spread by people with ulterior motives. We need to analyze them calmly and not be misled by these rumors."

Qi Yuxuan nodded, his doubts lessening slightly, but he still couldn't completely let go: "But this rumor has spread like wildfire. What if it really was that female demon who poisoned us?"

Yin Lihen said, "Brother Yuxuan, stop calling her a female demon. Don't forget, she's still your bet wife. Miss Qiu won the last two rounds, and there's still one round of sword fighting left. If she wins again, you'll have to marry her."

"You want me to marry her? Dream on, unless I'm dead," Qi Yuxuan said angrily.

After a moment of contemplation, Twilight City said, "Brother Yuxuan, I understand your feelings. However, the most important thing now is to find out the truth. You can go directly to Qiu Ziyue and ask for her opinion. Don't let others influence you."

Chu Yuqiu agreed, "Yes, let's go ask Miss Qiu and see what she thinks."

Yin Lihen added, "Besides, my judgment is sound. I trust that girl; she won't deceive us. If you're really worried, we can go with you."

After listening to his three friends, Qi Yuxuan gradually calmed down. He knew that perhaps facing Qiu Ziyue would truly provide the answer.

After considering for a while, Qi Yuxuan said, "Alright, let's set off immediately and go ask that female demon."

The three handsome men nodded in agreement.
