"Your medical skills have reached the level of a master physician?"
Dongfang Ruyi stared at Xiao Chen and asked.
She couldn't help but be astonished once again.
She, a top genius of the Martial Alliance, seemed like an insignificant passerby in front of Xiao Chen, leaving him only to marvel.
Dongfang Ruyi felt a sense of resentment.
How can there be such a person in the world? How can the geniuses of the same generation catch up?
Every single one of Xiao Chen's items could cause a huge sensation if taken out.
"I almost began to doubt that you were the legendary medical sage..." Dongfang Ruyi said quietly.
Xiao Chen just smiled and didn't say anything.
When the old master of the Zhong family woke up, the Zhong family members naturally rushed to serve him.
“He is too weak to speak or move for the time being. Give him this pill, and he should be able to get out of bed in about a week,” Xiao Chen said.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao!" The Zhong family accepted the gift with great gratitude.
The young beauty from the Zhong family looked on with delight, her eyes brimming with gratitude.
"Next, I will talk about those two poisons." Xiao Chen's expression turned slightly serious.
Xiao Yichen's expression tightened.
If Xiao Chen exposes him here, he will be in trouble.
However, as long as he keeps denying it, the other party should be helpless, since Xiao Chen can't produce any evidence that he is a member of the Heavenly King Palace.
"The person who poisoned the Heart-Piercing Powder is right here," Xiao Chen said calmly.
"What?" The Zhong family members were shocked, then their faces turned angry.
The three Illuminati members froze.
“Those three are members of the Illuminati,” Xiao Chen said, pointing to the three men.
Seeing the strange expressions on the three people's faces, the Zhong family head immediately chose to believe Xiao Chen.
"Guards!" he shouted, and many Zhong family warriors rushed in and surrounded the three men.
"How did you know who we are?" The three men stared coldly at Xiao Chen, and one of them asked.
“Illuminati members have a foul odor, making them easy to identify,” Xiao Chen chuckled.
The three men had grim faces and murderous intent in their eyes.
"Illuminati, my Zhong family has never provoked you, yet you dare to be so vicious! You will not leave here today!" the Zhong family head roared.
"Don't speak too soon. If you don't want your old man to lose his life, you'd better put down your weapons." The leader sneered.
"What do you mean?" the Zhong family members glared and scolded.
"The medicine they just gave the patient probably wasn't an antidote," Xiao Chen said.
"If I'm not mistaken, that's the Illuminati's mind-controlling poison."
Upon hearing this, the Zhong family members' expressions changed drastically.
"The Illuminati's mind-controlling poison! Bastards!" someone shouted.
"What is a mind-controlling Gu?" Xiao Yichen asked Song Yucheng.
“That’s the most evil thing the Illuminati has. Once the Gu worm enters the body, they can control the person who is infected through music, and they can also make the Gu worm gnaw on the heart of the infected person at any time, causing them to suffer great pain and die…” Song Yucheng said with a not-so-good expression.
Xiao Yichen's expression brightened.
This is really good stuff...
“Kid, you’ve seen a lot. I really don’t know how the Xiao family could produce someone like you…” The three members of the Illuminati stared at Xiao Chen with solemn expressions.
There's still no news about their spies planted in the Xiao family.
However, they were aware that the Xiao family had gained a new young master.
This young man is too outstanding; he's too much of a threat.
"Since you know how powerful the Mind Control Gu is, don't you know how to do it?" one person mocked.
The Zhong family head's face turned ashen, and he could only wave his hand to dismiss them.
"What exactly do you want? How can we remove the curse?" he demanded.
“Simple…” The three of them smiled.
"What the Illuminati wants is the submission of the Zhong family!"
The Zhong family was stunned, then their anger surged.
Xiao Yichen showed a hint of surprise.
The Illuminati's goal was the same as his.
However, in terms of methods, he was still lacking.
"The first thing I want your Zhong family to do is kill this brat!" The leader sneered, pointing at Xiao Chen.
They could tell that the Zhong family cared deeply about the life and death of the old patriarch, which is why they came up with this method.
“Mr. Xiao is the savior of the Zhong family. How could we lay a hand on him? Impossible!” The Zhong family members all glared angrily, but no one took action.
"Hmph, let's see how long you can endure this!" The three Illuminati members roared, each taking out a flute and playing it on the spot.
"No!" The Zhong family members looked terrified and quickly looked at the hospital bed.
However, Grandpa Zhong blinked but did not react.
"Hmm?" All three frowned.
The leader gave a wink, and the flute player played even harder.
But no matter how much he boasted, Grandpa Zhong was completely unharmed.
The Zhong family members also relaxed from their initial worries and watched quietly.
"What's going on?" The three members of the Illuminati were no longer calm.
They clearly saw with their own eyes that the poison was fed to Old Master Zhong...
There has never been a case where the mind-controlling gu had no effect once it entered the abdomen.
"I'm sorry, it was probably neutralized by my antidote pill, after all, Gu poison is still poison," Xiao Chen said calmly.
"What?" The three of them paled.
What kind of antidote pill is so powerful?
It's already amazing enough that it can cure the Heart-Piercing Powder of the Bright Light Society and the Life-Taking Incense of the Heavenly King's Palace, how could it possibly kill Gu worms?
"Thanks to Mr. Xiao!" The Zhong family looked relieved.
With a wave of his hand, the Zhong family head sent the martial artists who had retreated rushing back.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the three members of the Illuminati exchanged glances.
"go!"
The leader shouted, and the three of them immediately took action, breaking through the encirclement.
The moment that aura spread, the Zhong family was shocked.
"They're all S-rank Lightbringers!"
Unexpectedly, the Illuminati sent three King-level experts...
With the Zhong family's top expert lying in a hospital bed, even a single King-level expert like the Zhong family head couldn't defeat these three.
They didn't linger in the fight; after repelling some of the attackers, they leaped up to a higher place.
"Kid, we'll remember you!" The three men stared at Xiao Chen and said this before using their lightness skills to escape.
"Call the relevant departments immediately and have them assist in apprehending the rebels as quickly as possible!" The head of the Zhong family gave the order, then leaped up and chased after them.
"Stay here, don't follow us," Xiao Chen said to Dongfang Ruyi, secretly giving her a wink. With a faint smile, he vanished from everyone's sight in a few flashes.
“Young Master…we…” The Song family father and son looked at Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen glanced deeply in the direction Xiao Chen had left, his gaze turning cold.
"Leave now," he said.
The two were very obedient and immediately followed him outside.
For the time being, no one paid any attention to them, except for Dongfang Ruyi who kept an eye on them.
As Xiao Yichen left the Zhong family home, his expression grew even colder.
"Once you get back, immediately begin to gather all the strength of your Zhong family—all of it!" he instructed.
"Young Master, what are you trying to do?" Song Yucheng asked.
"That kid Xiao Chen has too many secrets. I want to get many of his things!"
"I will personally contact the main hall and mobilize powerful forces... Ten days from now, I will not only take down Xiao Chen, but also change the landscape of Jiang City and make all forces, large and small, submit!"
