Chapter 165: Fury
“Didn’t I tell you to secretly protect him?”
“And yet, in Linjiang City, you still let him get hurt like this!”
In the Evil Moon Sect, Luo Yuebai’s residence.
Looking at Su Jingzhen, who was lying on the bed unconscious and still twisting in pain on the bed, Luo Yuebai’s face was filled with rage.
Looking at the two black-clothed Foundation Establishment cultivators standing beside her, their faces were also filled with anger.
But more than that, they were worried.
“Master, please forgive us. We two have been secretly following Su Jingzhen, but his cultivation is already quite strong.”
“If we follow too closely, he will inevitably find us.”“When we lost sight of Su Jingzhen, we immediately rushed to his last known location.”
“But when we arrived, we only found a headless corpse in Peach Blossom Alley.”
“And when we saw Su Jingzhen again, he was already writhing in pain on the ground.”
The two Foundation Establishment cultivators were terrified, not daring to hide anything.
They told Luo Yuebai everything they had seen, without leaving out a single detail.
Luo Yuebai’s beautiful face was still filled with anger.
“Can you investigate the identity of the assassin in Peach Blossom Alley?”
“And who instructed him to come?”
“He dared to assassinate my Evil Moon Sect’s Chief Acolyte on our own territory.”
“It’s truly a slap in the face to the Evil Moon Sect!”
However, when faced with Luo Yuebai’s questioning, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators still looked somewhat embarrassed.
“Master, please forgive us!”
“We only recognized the assassin’s identity as the wandering butcher of Yunmeng City!”
“As for who hired him, we’ve already sent people to investigate.”
As soon as they spoke, Luo Yuebai’s eyebrows furrowed again: “The wandering butcher? That guy is not easy to deal with.”
Luo Yuebai also knew about the notorious wandering butcher.
But after muttering to herself, she turned to the two cultivators, who were still kneeling on the ground:
“Get out! No matter what the reason, you two have made a mistake that cannot be forgiven.”
“Go to the Punishment Hall to receive your punishment. I think you know what kind of punishment you’ll receive.”
Upon hearing this, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators’ bodies trembled slightly.
The two Foundation Establishment cultivators had a hint of panic in their eyes, but they still had to respectfully bow to Luo Yuebai before leaving.
After they left, Luo Yuebai’s eyebrows furrowed again.
Her gaze fell on Su Jingzhen once more.
“Could it be that he was hit by the wandering butcher’s Soul-Breaking Needle?”
As she muttered to herself, Luo Yuebai hesitated for a moment before undoing Su Jingzhen’s shirt.
Indeed, she saw a bleeding wound on his left shoulder.
“Ah, indeed!”
Seeing the wound, Luo Yuebai’s face darkened again.
Then, a subtle wave of energy emanated from her body.
Before long, Shen Yifeng’s figure appeared before her.
Seeing Su Jingzhen lying on the bed, Shen Yifeng’s eyebrows also furrowed.
“What happened to him?”
Shen Yifeng walked up and looked at the pain on Su Jingzhe’s face. After all, he was still a little worried.
“Third Grandfather, he was hit by the wandering butcher’s Soul-Breaking Needle.”
“Although the toxin is strong, with your abilities, you should be able to force it out, right?”
As she spoke, Luo Yuebai told Shen Yifeng everything that had happened today.
After listening, Shen Yifeng’s eyebrows relaxed, and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips.
“It’s not a problem with the Soul-Breaking Needle. I’ve heard of that guy before.”
“The poison that he can use with his strength can’t do anything to this kid. But don’t worry, he’ll be fine.”
Shen Yifeng had already guessed what had happened to Su Jingzhen today without needing to investigate.
He directly reached out and pulled off Su Jingzhen’s clothes, revealing the Pink Poisonous Woman mark on his chest.
“The toxin from the Soul-Breaking Needle is nothing compared to the Pink Poisonous Woman’s mark.”
Seeing the Pink Poisonous Woman mark, Luo Yuebai’s expression suddenly froze.
She never would have thought that Su Jingzhen had also been poisoned by the Pink Poisonous Woman.
“When did this happen?”
Luo Yuebai was completely unaware of the Pink Poisonous Woman’s involvement.
Before she could say anything, Shen Yifeng spoke again, “Moreover, regarding the pain on his face, you don’t need to worry too much about it.”
“You must have already investigated him, and the blood energy in his body should be extremely depleted.”
“It’s just that he has learned the secret technique of ‘Bloodthirst’, so this is just a normal aftereffect.”
“At most, it’ll take an hour, and he’ll be able to recover on his own.”
Although Shen Yifeng didn’t teach Su Jingzhen much, he seemed to know Su Jingzhen inside and out.
Without needing to personally examine him, he could imagine Su Jingzhen’s physical condition.
After all, the wandering butcher was someone he had heard of, and their combat power was not weak.
Su Jingzhen being able to kill such a professional assassin was quite impressive.
Before Luo Yuebai could respond, Shen Yifeng laughed and said, “Alright, take good care of him.“
“When he wakes up, you young people can have a good chat. As for me, I won’t be bothering you anymore.”
Shen Yifeng’s words seemed to have another meaning, and without waiting for Luo Yuebai’s response, he laughed a few times and left Luo Yuebai’s residence.
At this time, Luo Yuebai didn’t pay attention to Shen Yifeng’s teasing.
Her gaze was fixed on the pink spider mark on Su Jingzhen’s chest.
“What other secrets does this guy have that I don’t know about?”
She muttered to herself, and then directly grabbed Su Jingzhen’s hand.
A thread of spiritual power quietly entered his body.
At this time, Su Jingzhen was in the weakest state of his blood energy, and the secrets within his body were almost completely exposed under Luo Yuebai’s investigation.
When she discovered that Su Jingzhen had opened four secret repositories, Luo Yuebai was shocked and couldn’t close her mouth.
“I previously thought I had a high opinion of him, but I didn’t expect him to have reached such a level in his body cultivation.“
“Could it be that body cultivation can be truly achieved?”
After discovering the secrets within Su Jingzhen’s body, Luo Yuebai had some doubts about her own understanding.
However, she didn’t care about that now.
“It seems that I need to arrange for someone stronger to be by his side.”
Luo Yuebai muttered to herself again.
Then, she quietly kept watch by his bedside.
About half an hour later, the pain on Su Jingzhen’s face finally dissipated.
His face was still pale, but he had awakened.
When he opened his eyes, apart from Luo Yuebai’s stunning figure, what surprised Su Jingzhen was a string of golden characters.
