Chapter 497
The youth still had a cold smile on his face and was about to proceed.
The next second, his entire right arm turned black in an instant!
It was like being burnt, but even more terrifying than that.
“Click, click, click.”
It was like a carbonized crystal that shattered to the ground.
After landing on the ground, it quickly turned back into black dust and slowly dispersed.
An arm, just like that, was gone.
Before the youth could be stunned, he felt the pain that tore through his heart.
“Ah…!!!”
A miserable scream of the utmost intensity alarmed the entire S-cla*s mercenary group.
All the mercenaries rushed out, shocked by the scene before them.
The youth fell to the ground, writhing in pain.
Ying looked up, “You guys, you want it too?”
Several mercenaries shivered and shook their heads desperately.
“My lord, rest your anger, rest your anger.” The mercenary leader knew that things had gone too far, and he apologised, “This brother of mine didn’t mean it, you mustn’t take it personally with him.”
“I have already prepared the Fire Origin Essence for you, I can give you half of it first, for the remaining half, you can just take devil’s head in exchange.”
“Talking terms with me?” Ying Zidian raised his eyes, and under his black robe, a low laugh rang out, “I can kill you all and take the Fire Essence directly, so why go up against devil? Isn’t that right?”
devil was able to win the number one ranking straight away in his first year of officially stepping into the industry, his strength could not be bad.
But no one knew Devil’s true strength.
But no one knew Devil’s true strength, because killers were about sensitivity and surprise, not about attacking the enemy head-on.
If a killer finds the right spot, he will basically kill in one move.
A number one killer with unknown strength and an S-cla*s mercenary group with known strength, of course the latter is easier.
She had always been lazy.
The mercenary group leader opened his mouth with some difficulty, “My lord, you are using strong words-”
Before he could even say the word “taking away”, his expression changed drastically in an instant.
The girl raised her hand, and it seemed that there were airflow fluctuations and a breeze attacked him.
A kind of invisible and tasteless poison, scattered in the air.
Almost none of them had much resistance, “Boom, boom, boom”, all the mercenaries of an S-rank mercenary group fell to the ground.
The only mercenary leader who was okay looked at the mercenaries who were blue in the face and breathing hard, and his legs went weak.
With a wave of his hand, not an inch of gra*s would be left!
The group was exterminated.
This, was the most powerful thing about the Poison Master.
Moreover, he knew clearly the strength of these brothers of his, but none of them were able to fight back.
The First Poisoner, only the First Poisoner!
Ying Zidian gathered his sleeves, his indistinguishable voice sparse and cold, without temperature: “Now, still want to negotiate terms with me?”
The mercenary leader’s teeth chattered and he fell to his knees, banging his head on the ground, trembling all over: “My lord, it’s because we are blind, it’s because we don’t know any better, we didn’t do it on purpose, absolutely not!”
Ying Ziji glanced at him, “Who told you that the one Missy hired was a fake?”
She was well aware of the intimidating power of the top one of the major hunters’ list.
Especially the Poison Master and Hypnotist.
Even if it was an S-rank mercenary corps, they would definitely not dare to directly mess with these two list ones.
“You, you don’t call me Missy ……,” Rita raised her hand, wanting to pat the girl, then remembered the scene earlier and immediately withdrew it, “I, I’m scared.”
Did she deserve it?
No, she didn’t deserve it.
Ying thought about it and fished out a lollipop from her sleeve opening, “Eat it.”
“Huh?”
“Calm your nerves.
Lita took the lemon-flavoured lollipop in a trance-like manner, “Oh.”
Ying’s gaze fell back on the mercenary leader, “You have three seconds-”
She had to use her Divine Reckoning ability sparingly on the O Continent side.
After all, the name Divine Reckoner still made more enemies on O Continent.
There was no telling where the family that had pa*sed down killing her as a last wish from generation to generation was now.
The mercenary leader’s body trembled even more: “Because, because you haven’t come out for a long time, my unblinking brother wanted to try the real thing, absolutely no one!”
Ying Ziyi faded: “Three, two-”
“It’s Evan Bevan!” The mercenary leader shouted in a moment of life and death, “He was the one who told us that Miss Lita had hired an impostor.”
“My big brother.” Rita bit into her lollipop and frowned, “He’s always been close to the Taylors.”
“Hmm.” Ying nodded, “I’ll go get the Fire Origin Essence.”
Although Fire Origin Essence was rare, it wasn’t a precious herb, as many people didn’t know how to use it, but at most made it into a necklace to hang on their bodies.
Before she left, Ying Ziji threw a medicine bottle over, “After ten seconds, return to normal.”
“Thank you, thank you, my lord.” The mercenary leader tremblingly took the antidote and started feeding it to the mercenaries.
At the same time, there was a sigh of relief.
The First Poison Master’s temper seemed quite good, unlike other hunters who would kill the innocent indiscriminately.
One thing about the underground world was very similar to the ancient martial world, there were no rules, it depended on fists and strength.
Many people knew Rita and knew from the nok forum that she had invited the First Poisoner.
No one dared to come forward at all, they just watched the two walk out.
Ying weighed the stone-sized fire source essence in his hand and pondered for a moment, “Pity.”
Lita’s breath finally dropped: “What’s a pity?”
“It’s hard to find materials for making poison.” Ying Zigui slowly, “It’s too wasteful.”
Besides, quite a few of the herbs that could make top-notch poisons had been destroyed before she left Earth last time.
She didn’t know where the rumour had come from that a poisoner was bound to be covered in poison.
At least she wasn’t.
Of course, there were so many poisoners who tested their poison on themselves who had poison in all parts of their bodies.
There are also poisoners who hide poisonous spiders, centipedes, snakes and other poisonous things all over their bodies.
That’s what makes a person inhuman.
Too ugly.
She didn’t like it at all.
“Yeah.” Rita hesitated, “These materials are really hard to find, I put a bounty on the nok forum for you and there was only so much of it, it’s really a waste to use against them, you shouldn’t have released the poison.”
Without the materials, the poison could not be made out of thin air.
With her around, those mercenaries wouldn’t dare to take on the Bevin family.
Ying narrowed her eyes slightly, “Make a stand and draw a snake out of a hole.”
Only then did Lita remember the impostor she had found last time: “I’ve checked on my side and found nothing, you’re from China, could you be from the ancient medical community over there?”
Ying shook her head, “Not very likely, seventy percent unlikely.”
“Good, I’ll look again.” Lita sneered, “He fooled me and impersonated you, he must not be spared.”
She picked up her phone and started tapping the screen, “Beauty, the lollipops are delicious, what brand are they, I want to buy a few boxes.”
“……”
**
In just one night’s work, the happenings in the underground world spread all over the nok forum.
Posts floated all over the hidden section.
The last time such a spectacle had appeared was when the account with the id named God Reckoner appeared on the forum.
[Crap, really the number one poisoner.]
I happened to go to the Underworld that day to buy weapons, and I saw it with my own eyes, and I was scared sh*tless.
I saw it with my own eyes. I’m not sure if this guy is a man or a woman.
I don’t dare to take a picture, I can’t tell because of the black Arabian robe.
I’m not sure if I can do it.
[@Please take a pill]: in reflection, in self-imposed seclusion, look at the good-looking young lady resting, please do not disturb.
The Bevan family naturally got the message quickly.
Evan’s expression went cold and his voice was gloomy: “The number one poisoner, and she really found it by a maiden?”
What gives Rita the right?
“Big brother, what can we do now?” Yvonne was anxious, “There is no poison under this heaven that the First Poison Master can’t solve.”
The research of poisons, of course, was still the strongest poisoner.
“She’s the one Rita hired, so in the end the credit must go to her?” Evan sneered, “Come on, let’s go pick up Uncle Taylor and the others first.”
This time, those who followed the Taylor family head to the O Continent were not only Lin Qingjia and the ancient divine doctor, but also two pill boys.
The group arrived at Bevan Castle and got off the bus.
Lin Qingjia looked up and surveyed her surroundings with a little more interest.
She had been to O Continent, but went to the Alchemy Realm, and hadn’t turned around outside.
“Nephew Evan, I’d like to introduce you.” The middle-aged man said, “This, is Miss Lin Qingjia.”
Evan looked over and a glint of amazement surfaced in his eyes, “Miss Lin, how do you do.”
Lin Qingjia nodded slightly and shook hands with him, “How do you do.”
“This is Doctor Gu.” The middle-aged man added, “He is Miss Qingjia’s senior uncle, and he is also very skilled in medicine.”
Evan was respectful, “Divine Doctor Gu.”
Doctor Gu was an older man with white hair and beard.
He didn’t pay any attention to Evan, he just said, “Qingjia, let’s go in.”
Evan’s face turned blue.
“Nephew Evan, don’t be angry.” The middle-aged man shook his head, “This ancient divine doctor has an eccentric temper, and he will still come because of Miss Qingjia.”
Evan just had to bear it and followed inside.
Once inside, there were two more people in the hall.
One of them was Rita and the other was dressed in a long black robe, unidentifiable as a man or woman.
Evan remembered those posts on the nok forum, his expression changed and his legs shook.
The First Poisoner, just like that, had come.
“You’re here too?” Rita looked up, “Come along to see what ails Father.”
She was quite eager to see how good the ancient healer was.
Before Evan could say anything, the Ancient Doctor took one look at the girl, who was shrouded in black robes, and suddenly sneered, “What, do you think it won’t work with the old man around, and you’ll have to invite someone else to heal you?”
“Invite me and disrespect me, Qingjia, let’s go!”
Chapter 498
There is an unwritten rule in the ancient healing community, but one that all the major reputable ancient healers have identified.
The same patient, treated at the same time, can only be treated by one ancient doctor.
Ancient Medicine originated over three hundred years ago and has since developed many schools of thought, which have become somewhat different from the oldest Ancient Doctors.
The ancient divine doctor is over eighty years old and does not belong to any of the ancient medical families.
However, because of his excellent medical skills, he has a high status and reputation in the ancient medicine community.
Every year, Divine Doctor Gu would hold an apprenticeship conference in the ancient medical community, but he was so proud of himself that he had never accepted any apprentices until now, as he had always adhered to the idea that he would rather have a few than none.
The only close junior is Lin Qingjia.
It was indeed because of Lin Qingjia that he had promised to come to this side of the O Continent for a visit.
“Divine Doctor Gu.” Lin Qingjia’s expression changed, knowing what divine Doctor Gu was thinking, and immediately stopped, “There are no rules of the ancient medical community on this side of o continent.”
She didn’t underestimate the Four Great Zaibatsu of o Continent like the older generation did.
The fact that the Four Great Zaibatsu of o Continent could make mercenaries possess the cultivation of ancient martial artists by virtue of external forces was originally very terrifying.
How bad could the medical skills of a divine doctor who could make the Bevan family personally go and hire him be?
However, it was also true that the medical methods of the entire world had to lag behind the ancient medical world.
She had also met a few professors of medicine who were regarded as the top in the world, and their medical skills were far inferior to those of the ancient doctors.
Ancient medicine was able to force out the deepest impurities in the human body through internal energy and acupuncture, which was also known as cleansing the muscles and marrow in martial arts dramas, but modern medical techniques could not.
Lin Qingjia’s gaze fell on Ying Zidian, with a bit of contemplation and inquiry.
“Since the old man is here, it must be the old man’s rule.” The Ancient Divine Doctor’s eyes were cloudy, but a brilliant aura appeared as he looked straight at Ying Zigui, who was drinking tea, “Since you want to join me in the consultation, I’d like to ask you.”
“Do you know what Ancient Medical Origins is, do you know what Golden Needle Crossing Acupuncture Point is, and do you know what the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate is?”
“Or have you read the Principles of Ancient Medicine and the Taiyi Divine Needle and the Five Dragon Needle Technique?”
Hearing these familiar names, Ying Ziji put down her teacup, finally looked up, glanced at the Ancient Divine Doctor, and faintly: “I don’t know, I haven’t read them.”
She really didn’t know when these very basic ancient medical methods were worth bringing out and talking about specifically.
It seemed, then, that the current ancient medicine was indeed weak.
“Don’t even know these, and you want to treat patients with the old man? I am not talented, I know all of these.” The ancient divine doctor snorted, coldly, “The words are here, you, can only choose one person to treat.”
Evan was so anxious that he wanted to tell the divine doctor to shut up.
But he couldn’t even lift his legs because of the fear in his heart as Ying sat here, and he could only stand in place and shiver.
Even more so, Evan just wanted to faint.
Only Lita calmly blew on the Chinese tea that Ying Zidian had brought her, took a sip and snorted, “What, the number one poisoner in the nok, and you can still say what you want? How old are you?”
At these words, the middle-aged man’s face changed instantly, his calm expression shattering into shock, “The number one poisoner?”
Evan wiped his sweat, his legs trembling, before he spoke up, “Ty, Uncle Taylor, Rita invited it, the nok forums are all over it.”
The middle-aged man had been in the ancient martial world these days, and hadn’t even paid attention to the news from the outside world, and was still not at all aware of the shaking of the nok forum.
The ancient divine doctor frowned, still displeased: “What’s nok?”
He didn’t really want to come to this side of the O Continent.
Not only was there nothing good not to mention that he had to carry around a black and unpleasant translator, it was too much incompatible with his image.
Lin Qingjia was also surprised: “Poisoner? Or is it Pung One?”
She did know about nok and those hunter lists, but hadn’t cared too much about them.
The Xie family was also the only one in the ancient martial world that cared much, as the Xie family had made many enemies.
The nok hunter list, also represented the force value on the o-continent side, after all, there were very few Chinese people on the list.
“Got it, then apologize quickly.” Lita’s temper was not good at all, she tossed the silver gun in her hand and sneered, “This Miss Lin …… you are at least exposed to modern high technology, you still don’t know that the First Poisoner destroyed an S rank mercenary group in a second yesterday?”
“Oh, you guys don’t understand, let me put it another way, it’s more than twenty ancient martial artists with fifty years of cultivation, right?”
“You guys take a look instead, are you any good?”
Lin Qingjia and the Ancient Divine Doctor came to o continent this time, also in only brought a team of escorts, all of whom were guarding outside.
The ancient divine doctor was highly skilled in medicine, but he did not know ancient martial arts at all, and did not have any semblance of cultivation on him.
But it does not mean that he is not clear about the division of ancient martial arts cultivation.
Divine Doctor Gu’s expression finally changed and he lost his voice: “What?”
Ying Ziji gathered his black robe, didn’t say anything, got up and walked straight out.
This time, even Evan and the middle-aged man gave in to panic.
The First Poison Master!
They couldn’t understand the temper of this big man, what if he P*ssed them off and waved his hand to destroy the Bevin family?
The Bevin family was not afraid of killers, marksmen or ancient martial artists, but only of poisoners and hypnotists, two types of hunters who could attack in groups.
It is impossible to defend against them.
“Sorry, it’s our fault.” The middle-aged man was busy catching up with a low posture, “My lord, please don’t take it to heart, they don’t know your strength, the ignorant are not guilty.”
This sentence, through the simultaneous translator intact, reached the ancient divine doctor’s ears, his face turned blue, but this time not a word could be said.
Destroying an S-rank mercenary corps with his bare hands, killing him was easy.
“Miss Lin, I didn’t expect that this niece of mine had actually invited the number one poison master.” The middle-aged man paused and looked at Lin Qingjia again, very euphemistically, “If there is no way to live in peace with the First Poison Master, we can only ……”
The latter words were not finished, but Lin Qingjia knew what they meant.
To leave, it would be them who left, not the First Poison Master.
They didn’t deserve it.
Lin Qingjia wrinkled her brows and whispered, “Ancient divine Doctor, difficult disease.”
This time they had come, curing the Bevin family was secondary, the priority was to study the poison in the Bevin family head’s body.
Divine Doctor Gu had never suffered this kind of suffocation before, but there was nothing he could do.
He could only hold back the anger in his heart, choosing to take a step back and grit his teeth, “It was my fault, I make amends.”
But the Ancient Divine Doctor’s heart remained disdainful.
What kind of poison master was as strong as their Old Ancestor of Ancient Medicine?
Ying Zidian stopped and turned his head, his voice sparse and cold: “Only this once.”
These four words caused the middle-aged man to break out in a cold sweat, and then he made his apologies, “Yes, definitely, there will never be a second time, this way please.”
Ying did not follow him, but walked side by side with Lita.
The middle-aged man was a little embarra*sed and confused in his mind.
Why had Lita been able to hire the number one poisoner?
Lin Qingjia pursed her lips and followed.
The ancient divine doctor’s face did not look good, but he also had to step away.
The group arrived at the separate ward of the Bevin family head.
The Bevin family head was lying on the bed, his face pale, with a ventilator hanging on one side.
Lita lowered her voice: “Your medicine is working well, my father is breathing much better.”
Ying nodded his head.
The middle-aged man bent once more and saluted, “My lord, please.”
Lin Qingjia’s expression froze for a few moments.
The Four Great Zaibatsu of O Continent and the Three Great Families of Ancient Martial Arts were equals, but in front of this First Poison Master, the middle-aged man was able to put his posture so low.
It seemed that they had really underestimated the strength of the hunters.
Ying sat down and didn’t use the golden needle, he just pressed on a few acupuncture points of the Bevin family head and looked at his features again.
The ancient divine doctor looked on with cold eyes and snorted secretly.
Just this?
It looked like an amateur’s technique.
How could he still want to cure a disease?
He watched how the number one poisoner cured his patient to death.
At that moment, a mobile phone rang.
Rita looked up, coldly: “Who left the mute on? Looking for death?”
“Sorry.” Lin Qingjia stepped back outside the ward and answered the phone, “Father, it’s me.”
Lin Jinyun on the other end didn’t know what to say and Lin Qingjia’s expression changed, “That ……”
After a pause, she added, “Okay, when I’m done with things on this side of the o-continent, I’ll go back as soon as possible, I’ll trouble father to take care of mother more.”
She hung up the phone, her lips pursed tight.
**
This time.
Ancient Martial World, Lin Family.
Lin Jinyun looked at An Ruojin, who was holding her legs and shivering continuously on the bed, and took a deep breath, “I told you to protect Madam properly, what are you doing?”
The two guards knelt on the ground, fearful, “Family head spare my life.”
It was useless even if they said that An Ruojin had deliberately sent them away.
If they didn’t protect her, they didn’t protect her.
“The Lin family rules cannot be broken.” Lin Jinyun was indifferent, “Scrap your own cultivation and leave.”
The two guards’ faces were ashen and defeated, their bodies trembling.
Their cultivation levels were all over fifty years, and it hadn’t been easy to cultivate so far.
But there was no way.
Lin Jinyun tried to speak to An Ruojin, but An Ruojin only chanted under her breath, facing the wall alone with an expression that was frightened one moment and frantic the next.
Indeed, she was no different from a madman.
He stretched his hand, but could only give up.
The Grand Elder sent someone to call him.
Lin Jinyun followed the escort forward.
“Jin Yun, this is a list of the female family members of the great clans.” The Grand Elder placed a pamphlet in front of him, “Take a look, if there’s one you like, we’ll place a bride-price request as soon as possible.”
In the beginning, he would let Lin Jinyun marry An Ruojin because he wanted to turn Lin Qingjia into a member of their Lin family.
An Ruojin, apart from her face, did not have a single place that was worthy of the position of the Lin family’s matriarch.
But beauty, in the ancient martial world, was the lowest level of existence.
With strength, it can be obtained at your fingertips.
Now that An Ruojin had become this insane and foolish, she still didn’t repudiate her wife?
“Grand Elder.” Lin Jinyun’s expression sank, “You are pushing people too far and giving Qingjia a chill, she has sat a lot of contributions to the Lin family, and this is how you treat her mother?”
Hearing this sentence, the Grand Elder was really silent.
After a long time, he faintly: “Then let’s wait until Qingjia returns.”
The Grand Elder was happy to see An Ruojin turn out like this, he had wanted to change the Lin family’s main mother for a long time.
How deserving.
I wonder who did the good deed of solving a problem in the Lin family’s heart.
Lin Jin Yun stood up, “Jin Yun bids farewell.”
After leaving the Grand Elder’s house, Lin Jinyun looked icy and called for a team of guards to come: “Investigate, who actually hurt the madam, and when you find out, bring it back immediately.”
This was clearly a slap in the face of the Lin family, and absolutely could not be spared.
The Lin family did not cause trouble, only development, but which ancient martial artist did not have human lives on his hands?
The guards clasped their fists, “Yes, Family Head.”
**
This side of Bevin Castle.
Five minutes later, Ying Zigui finished his inspection.
Sure enough.
Just as she had speculated, the poison that the Bevin family head had been poisoned with was similar to the poison that Master Fu had been poisoned with at that time.
I’m afraid that it belonged to the same alchemical product.
Ying Ziyi pondered for a moment and reported a few more herbs: “These.”
Lita immediately wrote them down, “I’ll go and buy them.”
The ancient divine doctor was about to say that these were not even considered medicinal herbs, but swallowed back raw when he came into contact with Lita’s icy gaze.
“House Master Taylor, we would also like to see what ails House Master Bevan.” Lin Qingjia said, “Of course, it’s up to you to decide who treats him.”
“Giggle.” Rita sniffed and snorted lightly, “Then you guys will have to treat that too.”
“How not?” The Ancient Divine Doctor stroked his beard, still condescending, “The old master has pa*sed on to Mr. Yuxuan.”
For the ancient medical community, the o-continent side had limited knowledge, at most the status quo, the ancestral generation didn’t know anything at all.
So when the name came out, the members of the Taylor and Bevan families were bewildered.
Lin Qingjia smiled and did helpfully explain, “My master and the Ancient Divine Doctor, both under Master Yu Xuan, who in turn taught the old ancestor of the Fu family.”
“The Old Ancestor of the Fu Family, is the first ancient doctor, but has not been seen for a long time.”
Hearing the last sentence, the middle-aged man then dawned on him, “Then Miss Lin is really something, having such a powerful master discipline.”
Ying Zigui raised her head and gave the ancient divine doctor an extra look, pondering.
Is this …… her third generation apprentice?
