YM778.TV Chapter 167
Moreover, it was a complete and utter defeat, without the slightest chance to fight back.
The combat techniques he had honed for many years were completely useless in front of Lu Qing and were utterly crushed.
The overwhelming, dragon-like, tiger-like fist power was terrifying.
It enveloped all directions, sealing off everything, leaving no room for his stealth and escape techniques.
No matter which direction he fled, he would inevitably be covered by the fist power.
In front of Lu Qing, the “Master of the Qian Family” felt like a fly trapped in a spider’s web, with no escape.
What kind of monster was this?
A sliver of fear rose in the “Master of the Qian Family\'s” heart.Looking at the "Master of the Qian Family" lying on the ground like a dead dog, and then at Lu Qing standing tall on the wall, all the guests were utterly shocked.
Regardless of whether this “Master of the Qian Family” was real or fake, the terrifying momentum he had displayed earlier was real.
Everyone estimated that even if he hadn’t reached the level of a Martial Grandmaster, he was not far off.
His swordsmanship and movement techniques were also exceptional.
Among those present, except for Wei Xinghe and the young man in plain clothes, no one dared to claim they could withstand a single move from him.
Not to mention, he also possessed a mysterious technique capable of shaking even a Grandmaster\'s mind.
Such a powerful assassin couldn’t escape Lu Qing\'s pursuit and was easily captured.
From the assassin\'s escape to Lu Qing’s return, only a few moments had passed, right?
The guests realized that compared to the previous city gate battle, Lu Qing\'s strength had significantly improved.
“What happened to the Young Master?”
Lu Qing ignored the guests\' awe-inspiring gazes. His first glance saw that the unconscious Wei Zian’s face was unusual.
“Lu Xiaolangjun, you came back just in time. This villain’s sword is poisoned, An\'er was cut, and the poison has entered his body, rendering him unconscious. Zhi Yue said the poison is called Blood Fiend Poison, extremely vicious. Please, Lu Xiaolangjun, save An\'er!”
Mrs. Wei was overjoyed to see Lu Qing return and hurriedly pleaded.
“Let me see!”
Lu Qing immediately went to the stage upon hearing this, not daring to delay.
“Master Wei, please keep an eye on that assassin. I have broken his limbs and dislocated his jaw, so he should pose no threat.”
After saying this, he activated his ability and looked at Wei Zian.
He saw a greyish hue emerging from Wei Zian’s body.
[Wei Zian: The Young Master of the Wei Family, noble status, resolute and cheerful personality.]
[Cultivation: Initial stage of the Postnatal Qi and Blood Realm.]
[Poisoned by the Blood Fiend Poison from the Seven Killers Tower, in critical condition, life hanging by a thread.]
It was indeed Blood Fiend Poison.
Lu Qing\'s heart tightened, knowing the situation was urgent.
He quickly took out a small wooden box from his arms, opened it, and took out a jade bottle and a needle pouch.
First, he opened the jade bottle and dropped several drops of the medicinal liquid into Wei Zian’s mouth.
Then he removed Wei Zian’s upper clothing, and quickly inserted more than ten silver needles, using acupuncture to help stimulate the medicinal power.
Seeing this scene, the “Master of the Qian Family” showed a mocking expression in his eyes.
The Blood Fiend Poison of their Seven Killers Tower was not so easily resolved.
This boy was indeed overestimating his abilities.
Unfortunately, his jaw was dislocated, preventing him from speaking; otherwise, he would have mocked them.
The “Master of the Qian Family” looked on expectantly.
The reason he had left so decisively earlier, aside from avoiding being surrounded, was also because Wei Zian had been poisoned by his Blood Fiend Poison, an almost certain death.
The Blood Fiend Poison was terrifying; even their own antidote was only effective within a quarter of an hour after ingestion.
After that, there was almost no hope of saving the victim.
He had embarked on this assassination mission with a determination to kill, without carrying the antidote.
He wanted to see the expressions on these people\'s faces when Wei Zian succumbed to the poison.
As an assassin, he had already put his life and death aside upon being captured.
If he could see these people in grief and despair before he died, it would be a great satisfaction.
On the other side, under Lu Qing’s full application of acupuncture, the medicinal liquid containing Earth Vein Spirit Liquid quickly dissolved and exerted its power.
The Earth Vein Spirit Liquid had incredibly miraculous effects, capable of bringing the dead back to life, regenerating flesh and bones, created by beings far beyond the Precelestial realm.
Although the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid in this medicinal liquid was heavily diluted, it was supplemented with Hundred-Year-Old Ginseng to replenish vitality.
Its healing effect was outstanding, truly a life-saving medicine.
Therefore, no matter how terrifying the Blood Fiend Poison was, it was rapidly neutralized by this life-saving elixir.
The black gas on Wei Zian’s face faded visibly.
He quickly improved, his complexion becoming rosy.
Moments later, he opened his eyes, looking around in confusion.
“Mother, what happened to me?”
“An\'er, you’re awake!” Mrs. Wei hugged him, crying with joy.
Wei Xinghe explained, “You were poisoned just now and almost couldn’t wake up. It was Lu Xiaolangjun who saved you.”
“Really saved?”
The guests were incredulous.
They had clearly seen that Wei Zian’s condition was critical.
The Blood Fiend Poison was terrifying, knocking people unconscious instantly, even Zhi Yue’s antidote pill had little effect.
Unexpectedly, such a potent poison was swiftly neutralized by Lu Qing.
There’s a saying, “illness comes like a landslide, recovery like pulling silk.”
Detoxification is the same; poisoning is easy, but detoxification is troublesome.
Yet, Lu Qing neutralized it easily, showcasing his superb medical skills.
His martial prowess was profound, and his medical skills were equally impressive.
Looking at the still slightly youthful face of Lu Qing, the guests found this young man increasingly mysterious and unfathomable.
As for the “Master of the Qian Family” who had initially hoped to see a good show, his eyes were now filled with disbelief.
He couldn’t believe the Blood Fiend Poison he had spent a great price to acquire was so easily neutralized.
This was even harder for him to accept than being captured by Lu Qing within moments.
Unfortunately, with his jaw dislocated, he couldn’t speak even if he didn’t believe it.
After Wei Zian woke up, Lu Qing checked him again.
Seeing that the Blood Fiend Poison had been completely neutralized and the wound on his arm had healed, he finally relaxed.
Wei Xinghe also breathed a sigh of relief. After comforting Wei Zian for a while, he approached the “Master of the Qian Family,” looking at him coldly.
“Who are you, and why did you want to kill my son? Where is the real Master of the Qian Family?”
All the guests looked over.
Wei Xinghe wasn’t a fool and could naturally tell that this “Master of the Qian Family” was a fake.
Other guests could see it too; the real Master of the Qian Family was entirely different from the one before them, especially in terms of strength.
The “Master of the Qian Family” just coldly looked at Wei Xinghe, saying nothing.
Seeing his obviously abnormal mouth, everyone remembered that Lu Qing had said earlier that his jaw had been dislocated.
“Master Wei, I have removed the poison capsule hidden in his mouth, so he cannot commit suicide by poisoning himself. We can fix his jaw.”
Lu Qing said from the side.
Wei Xinghe stepped forward and fixed the “Master of the Qian Family’s” jaw.
He immediately sneered, “Why kill him? As an assassin of the Seven Killers Tower, we kill without needing a reason. As long as someone offers a bounty, we can take even the head of a king. As for that fat Qian Family Master, since I had to impersonate him, I naturally killed him first!”
Everyone’s hearts chilled.
They felt the audacity of the Seven Killers Tower assassins.
“Who offered the bounty to take my son’s life?”
Wei Xinghe was angry but forced himself to calm down and continued to ask.
“I don’t know. The rule of the Seven Killers Tower is that assassins only take tasks without asking reasons. Only the headquarters knows who offered the bounty. I only kill for the reward, nothing else.”
Hearing this, the “Master of the Qian Family” was also filled with resentment.
The information he had received from headquarters only mentioned that the Wei Family had a Martial Grandmaster at the Internal Organs Realm and a severely injured old ancestor.
But it didn’t mention a monster like Lu Qing.
With such a huge gap in intelligence, there were only two possibilities.
One, the headquarters deliberately gave him wrong information.
Two, the client concealed the information to avoid paying a higher reward.
But regardless of the reason, he was terribly screwed.
Damn it, if I survive this, I’ll find out who set me up!
The “Master of the Qian Family” swore bitterly in his heart.
“If you know nothing, then there
is no need to keep you alive!”
Seeing that he couldn’t get any useful information, Wei Xinghe, in his anger, decided to kill him to vent his anger.
“Wait, Master Wei.” At this moment, the young man in plain clothes stopped Wei Xinghe, “May I ask a few questions?”
“Of course, Zhi Yue.”
Wei Xinghe stopped and made way.
He was very respectful towards the young man in plain clothes.
Had it not been for him alerting Old Doctor Chen and Lu Qing that day, the Wei Family might have already been annihilated.
Earlier, he also reminded them to seal Zian’s blood and gave an antidote pill, otherwise, Zian might not have lasted until Lu Qing returned.
So, Wei Xinghe naturally had no objections to such a small request.
The young man in plain clothes stood before the “Master of the Qian Family,” who still coldly looked at him, seemingly indifferent to life and death.
However, the young man’s next words made his face change instantly.
“I have heard that in the Seven Killers Tower, there are countless assassins, but the most famous are the 36 Heavenly Gang and the 72 Earthly Fiends. I wonder, which one are you among the 36 Heavenly Gang?”
