While Yun Lintian was treating Guchang, several hundred meters away from the village, a young man clad in red frowned slightly upon hearing the report. He had two long horns, more majestic than Hongniu Kangyi’s ones. Evidently, he was someone from the Crimson Ox Clan.
“Are you sure they died in that old bastard’s hand?” The young man asked in doubt.
“I am certain, Third Young Master. No one aside from him has the ability to kill four servants in one shot.” A two-horned middle-aged man lowered his head slightly as he responded.
The young man, Third Young Master Hongniu Wei, nodded and waved his hand. “You can leave. I’ll take care of it.”
The middle-aged man bowed his head and went out.
Hongniu Wei turned to a man sitting beside him and said with an apologetic smile. “I’ve made you laugh, Young Master Du.”
If Yun Lintian was here, he would immediately recognize this man. He was no other than Du Huanfeng!
Du Huanfeng chuckled. “You don’t need to feel sorry, Third Young Master Hongniu. Your subordinates were obviously inferior to the opponent, yet they still went to that place. I’m not surprised to see them ending like this.”
Hongniu Wei let out a sorrowful sigh. “They are indeed as stupid as you said.”
“What are you going to do? You can’t just swallow this breath, right?” Du Huanfeng asked with a grin.
Hongniu Wei could see Du Huanfeng’s intention at a glance, but he pretended not to see it and asked. “How could it be, Young Master Du? I will definitely make them pay. However, I’m curious. How did Guchang exert his strength? He has obviously been poisoned with the Life Eroding poison.”
“Life Eroding poison? You sure play it big, Third Young Master Hongniu.” Du Huanfeng was surprised slightly. After all, the Life Eroding poison was extremely rare.
At the same time, he was curious about how this Guchang managed to suppress the poison. The Life Eroding poison was one of the deadliest poisons in this world. Ten out of ten would surely die once they got it. Du Huanfeng didn’t believe there was a miraculous doctor on this Western Continent.
Hongniu Wei spread his arms. “Looks like it failed now… Never mind, we should talk about our business first.”
Du Huanfeng nodded and asked. “What do you think of my proposal?”
“Of course. I’m satisfied with your proposal. However, I want to remind Young Master Du a bit. The weddings between Pei Xiewen and Bi You will be held at the end of the month. At that time, there will be a lot of people around the place. We certainly cannot sneak in. Once you’ve been discovered, I’m afraid my strength is not enough to help you.”
Du Huanfeng leaned back slightly and said calmly. “Third Young Master Hongniu doesn’t have to worry about it. As long as you can send me there, I naturally have a way to go in without them knowing.”
Hongniu Wei nodded and said with a smile. “Then I’m relieved.” He let out a soft sigh and said. “I don’t know if we will have a chance to see the legendary Tree of Life with our own eyes… Anyway, don’t bring your hope high, Young Master Du.”
Du Huanfeng shrugged. “It doesn’t matter. Our Myriad Pill Palace has been searching for it for countless years, and we still haven’t given up on it yet. I don’t think I’m more special than others, but it’s better to try than do nothing.” 𝚍ｏ𝚟𝚕.ｏｒｇ
Hongniu Wei gave a thumb up. “Young Master Du is so humble.”
Du Huanfeng smiled faintly and said nothing further.

“The first session is done. It will take at least a week for Senior to recover half of it and a month for a full recovery. So, I will stay here for the time being.” Yun Lintian put away all the silver needles and said calmly. In fact, he could completely expel the poison within a week with the help of the Profound Spiritual Liquid, but Yun Lintian didn’t want to expose his secret further.
Guchang nodded his head. He obviously felt all the pain and temporary weakness had reduced several degrees. At this rate, he would definitely be able to fully recover.
He looked at Yun Lintian and asked in doubt. “Do you have a master? Your medical profound art is the best I’ve ever seen at your age. I believe no one in the same generation is as good as one-tenth of you.”
“Please forgive me, Senior. I cannot tell you my master’s name.” Yun Lintian gave an apologetic smile.
Guchang motioned with his chin and said. “It’s okay. I’m merely asking.” Suddenly, he thought of something. “I totally forgot about it. I got the news that the marriage between the young master of the Great Roc Clan and the young miss of the Heavenly Fox Clan will be held at the end of the month around the place that is rumored to be the Tree of Life’s position. It seems to be difficult for you to go there at that time. As you know, most people here hated humans. Once you revealed yourself, I can’t imagine the consequence.”
Yun Lintian’s brows involuntarily creased together. What a troublesome. It seemed he had to go there before the weddings happened.
Thinking of this, Yun Lintian decided to take out a small bottle and hand it to Guchang. “Please take a sip of this from time to time. It will help Senior expel the poison faster.”
Guchang took the bottle and looked at the content inside with curiosity. In the next moment, his expression changed completely. He raised his head to look at Yun Lintian and hurriedly pushed the bottle back. “This is too precious. I cannot accept this.”
Honestly, Guchang was embarrassed. Not only did Yun Lintian help him, but he also gave him a precious treasure. Meanwhile, he didn’t give anything in return.
Yun Lintian pushed the bottle to Guchang and said. “Please use it at ease, Senior. So I can leave here faster.”
Guchang didn’t pick the bottle up. He stared at Yun Lintian and asked curiously. “Why did you spend so much effort to help us? We clearly knew each other for a few hours.”
