Ch 61 Part 3 – Pei Mufeng (III)

Su Junmo finally stopped talking. Instead of going on, he looked at Meng Qi and asked: “Meng Qiqi, what do you think?”

“Xue Chengxuan’s youngest sister is a member of Feng Alliance’s Xue Clan.” Meng Qi didn’t have any particular thought. “But if her age is still young, it’s not too strange if she encountered a stronger cultivator and got poisoned.”

“The poison that harmed her is from the Devil Realm.” Su Junmo continued. “Xue Chengxuan is almost certain. It is a venom extracted from a fifth-rank devil beast, then mixed with some poisonous plants that only grow in the Devil Realm. The poison is potent enough to kill Xue sister, but in the end, she was sent back alive to Xingluo City.”

“Seems to be a provocation for the upcoming Medical Cultivator Conference, isn’t it?” Meng Qi said.

“Right?” Su Junmo replied. “I think so too. Now the best medical cultivators from the four realms are gathering in Xingluo City, and the culprit poisoned Xue Clan’s most favored daughter. This is clearly making an enemy with Feng Alliance and slapping the face of the whole medical society!”

“Yeah.” Meng Qi nodded.

“Xue Chengxuan has always been well-mannered. I have known him for so long, and this is the first time I saw him getting angry. He was so angry that his face turned blue. Tsk…” As Su Junmo spoke, he glanced at Meng Qi cautiously.

“Su Junmo!” Sikong Xing couldn’t stand it anymore. “What do you mean by looking at Meng Qiqi like this? Who is Xue Chengxuan? Does he have anything to do with Meng Qiqi?”

“It was before we went to Huajiang Manor.” Meng Qi explained with an indifferent tone. “I’ve only met him once. He is Su Junmo’s acquaintance.”

“Hey, I’m not talking about this. Meng Qiqi, I thought you probably don’t want to hear about him.” Su Junmo said.

“Why?” Meng Qi asked.

“Didn’t he…show a bad attitude towards you before?”

Meng Qi was stunned for a moment before she finally remembered. That day in the Xuanyun Villa’s courtyard at Huajiang Manor, after Meng Qi refused to go saving Lu Qingran, Xue Chengxuan indeed alienated her quite a lot.

But Meng Qi couldn’t understand. So what about it? She and Xue Chengxuan were not close, only a first-time acquaintance. But it was true that they had similar ideas.

“I’m fine.” She waved her hand, “I’m not so narrow-minded.”

“Um…” Su Junmo said hesitantly, “Xue Chengxuan is waiting for his father and other clan elders to arrive at Xingluo City. They should be able to solve Xue sister’s poisoning. It’s just, Meng Qiqi…” He looked at Meng Qi: “Since someone deliberately made such a provocation, I’m afraid that this Medical Cultivator Conference won’t go on smoothly. Do you…still want to participate?”

“Let’s take a look first.” Meng Qi replied. They were already in Xingluo City, and she also had her own purpose. Although Xiao Qi’s jackdaw grass’ poisoning was finally cured, that was only the lightest injury on his body. The complicated internal injuries that Meng Qi couldn’t even fully identify were the biggest problem.

The brightest minds in the medical society of Three Thousand Worlds would come to gather at the conference. Meng Qi hoped to find a clue to treat Xiao Qi’s internal injuries there.

“Alright.” Su Junmo nodded, “But you must protect yourself well. I have a hunch that this is just the beginning. Since the other party dared to provoke even the Xue clan, they definitely won’t stop so easily.

“Okay.” Meng Qi agreed. She knew that Su Junmo spoke so much to explain this matter was because he was worried about her. Meng Qi smiled, “Thank you for your concern.”

“Then you girls should rest soon.” Su Junmo was about to return to his room when hurried knocks suddenly came from the courtyard gate.

“Excuse me, is Young Master Su here?”

Su Junmo stopped. He said to Meng Qi in a low voice, “It’s from Xue clan.”

Su Junmo stepped forward to open the courtyard gate. A young cultivator stood over there. He hurriedly bowed towards Su Junmo and said: “Young Master Su, please forgive me for disturbing you at such a late night. But my family’s young master asked you to come.”

Su Junmo nodded and asked, “Does something happen?”

“Our Miss’ poison is a bit troublesome.” The young cultivator’s complexion was not very good. “Our Young Master asks Young Master Su to have a look.”

“Okay.” Su Junmo agreed.

Meng Qi listened on the side. Her curiosity suddenly stirred. According to what Su Junmo said just now, Xue family’s young Miss was poisoned by a fifth-rank devil poison. This definitely was not a big problem for Xue Clan.

But Xue Chengxuan suddenly had to call Su Junmo in the middle of the night. There must be something tricky about the poison!

Meng Qi suddenly felt itchy, and her fingers subconsciously moved slightly.

She wants to go too!

She really wants to see this devil poison that troubled even the Xue clan’s heir!

Meng Qi took a deep breath and made up her mind. She pursed her mouth, and before Su Junmo could speak, she already walked towards him. “Can I go too?” Meng Qi raised her head and asked.

Su Junmo “…”

“Then I want to go too.” Sikong Xing immediately jumped to Meng Qi and stared at Su Junmo with bright eyes.

Su Junmo “…”

It wasn’t impossible to bring them, especially because Xue Chengxuan already knew Meng Qi.

But why does he feel like an old father who was going to bring his two daughters to play!
