Chapter 152 - 149: Using the Enemy’s Plan Against Them 1



“‘l’nls poison IS colorless ana cnrncult to discern. Even wnen cussowea m tea, it’s hard to notice. Only by carefully smelling the strange scent in the tea can one detect the subtleties within. Once this poison enters the body, it becomes fatal to a martial artist at the Spirit Martial Realm level.”

“How so?” Jin Cheng was shocked and eager for more information.

Yang Chen said with a solemn expression: “Since this poison is called Cui Ling San, it’s because it prevents martial artists from refining spiritual energy and integrating it into their body. Without refining spiritual energy, they naturally cannot convert it into True Qi and improve their martial arts cultivation. A master in the Spirit Martial Realm relies on the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth as sustenance. Young Master Jin Cheng, if you haven’t consumed spiritual energy for years, your physical condition would naturally become abnormal and uncomfortable.”

“But I feel like I can still absorb Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi,” Jin Cheng said, puzzled.

“That’s just an illusion. The true brilliance of Cui Ling San lies here. The word ‘cui’ indicates the real mystery of Cui Ling San. Those who are poisoned don’t even know they have been poisoned,” Yang Chen simply said.

“This…” Jin Cheng’s expression turned serious.

According to Yang Chen, all the symptoms Jin Cheng displayed could be explained.

Yang Chen hinted further, “Moreover, I should remind you, Young Master Jin Cheng, that since you were poisoned through tea, you must be cautious of the people around you.”

He only pointed this out; it was up to Jin Cheng to consider his advice.

Jin Cheng’s expression changed visibly.

But soon, he calmed down: “Brother Yang Chen, is there a solution?”

“It’s not difficult to solve. I can easily prescribe dozens of remedies for you, Young Master Jin Cheng,” Yang Chen said with a grin. “And the medicine is effective immediately. However, I want to know, won’t you use your illness to counteract the enemy’s scheme?”

Hearing Yang Chen’s words, Jin Cheng suddenly felt enlightened.

Counteracting the enemy’s scheme…

What a brilliant idea!

Jin Cheng laughed heartily: “Brother Yang Chen has awakened me from my slumber with just one sentence! So far, I still have no clue as to who poisoned me. However, your words have indeed made me realize an opportunity. If I counteract the enemy’s scheme and investigate the culprit who framed me, it may not be difficult.”

With this thought, he started to appreciate Yang Chen even more.

A boy of only fourteen or fifteen years old could come up with such a brilliant strategy, which was truly astonishing.

Yang Chen didn’t care about Jin Cheng’s opinion of him. He had made this suggestion out of goodwill.

At this moment, he took out a brush and ink, wrote down the treatment method, and handed it directly to Jin Cheng: “Here is the prescription to cure your stubborn ailment, Young Master Jin. It will take effect within three days, and there will be no side effects. However, the medicinal ingredients are relatively rare, and that is beyond my control.”

Jin Cheng glanced at the prescription Yang Chen had written down: “I will gather the necessary materials. Although they are rare, it’s not a problem for me. Alright, Brother Yang Chen, you may leave now.”

This surprised Yang Chen: “Young Master Jin Cheng, aren’t you going to wait for the results before letting me go?”

“Sometimes, trust doesn’t have to be established by waiting for results, otherwise, it would be too disheartening. I trust Brother Yang Chen. Uncle He, take Brother Yang Chen to meet his clansmen, and have someone escort him out of the city. Make sure those vile villains don’t have any opportunity to take advantage of us,” Jin Cheng ordered.

The vile villain he was referring to was naturally Huang Chiyang, who had a feud with Yang Chen.

Yang Chen was secretly grateful.

Jin Cheng was indeed a person worth befriending. Realizing this, he also said, “If that’s the case, I won’t put up pretenses!”

He Liancheng, who had entered the room at some point, said: “Young Master Chen, please!”

Jin Cheng smiled: “I hope the Gravity Pills can arrive sooner. When they reach you, my brother, let’s talk again!”

“I also hope that Young Master Jin will find the true culprit behind your poisoning soon,” Yang Chen said indifferently, then left with He Liancheng.

Not long after, He Liancheng took Yang Chen to Yang Wu and the others.

As Yang Chen had predicted, Yang Wu, Yang Jinhe, and the others were placed under house arrest by Jin Cheng. Despite this, their treatment was relatively good – at least the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion did not mistreat them.

Seeing Yang Chen return safely, Yang Wu said with a bitter expression, “Yang Chen, I’m sorry. If it weren’t for me, you would never have been imprisoned and humiliated by those guards.”

“Haha, Yang Wu, it’s all in the past, so don’t worry about it. I’m fine now, aren’t I? And it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as I made a valuable new friend,” Yang Chen laughed.

Yang Wu saw that Yang Chen was indeed unharmed, which made him feel relieved.

“However, the Clan Leader…” Yang Wu looked at Yang Jinhe with several wounds on his body and felt even more guilty.

Yang Jinhe waved his hand, “Yang Wu, it’s only natural for young people to make mistakes, and the greater the ability to correct them, the better. It’s not too late for you to realize your mistakes now. One day, you will have a place in the Yang family, and by then, you will know how valuable today’s lesson is. A true man knows when to endure. Don’t take today’s events too much to heart.”

Upon hearing Yang Jinhe’s advice, Yang Wu felt better, nodded forcefully, and kept the lesson of the day in mind.

Yang Yuan was not so kind to Yang Wu. He stepped forward and scolded, “I’ll deal with you properly when we get back.”

By comparison, Elder Yang was more observant, looking intently at the guards behind Yang Chen, and asked, “Yang Chen, who are these people?”

Yang Chen responded with a faint smile, “Young Master Jin and I hit it off well, and he was concerned about our safety on the way, hence, these guards. They will escort us out of the city to a safe place to prevent any villains from taking advantage of us.”

“This…”

Both Yang Jinhe and Elder Yang were astonished.

They could somewhat guess that the situation was related to Yang Chen’s successful treatment but were amazed that Yang Chen managed to befriend Golden Eagle Young Master from Liaocheng in such a short time. Especially since Yang Jinhe knew very well that Golden Eagle Young Master was a high-ranking figure in the Liaocheng City Lord’s Mansion.

For someone from the Great Wilderness, the City Lord’s Mansion was an astonishing concept.

Golden Eagle Young Master’s status was unparalleled in the Great Wilderness.

Yang Chen had only been in Liaocheng for two days and had already befriended the Golden Eagle Young Master. It was unbelievable and seemed like a dream.

Particularly since Golden Eagle Young Master was so considerate as to send them on their way with guards, it could not have been more timely..
