Mingshi Yin bowed and said, Please forgive me, master. I lost my composure for a moment.

Lu Zhou glanced at Mingshi Yin before he shifted his gaze to Zhao Yus bloody forehead. He said, The blood ginseng and the snow lotus are so precious, but you actually entrusted them to another person.

Zhao Yu said, annoyed at himself, If I knew this would happen, even if you beat me to death, I wouldnt have given it to him. The more I hope that something like this doesnt happen, the more likely itll happen. It was like this previously as well!

Previously?

As the saying went, Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

Mingshi Yin felt speechless. He turned around; he could not be bothered to look at Zhao Yu.

They were also natural treasures Medicinal herbs, Zhao Yu said in a small voice.

Lu Zhou nodded slightly. Two things: one, summon that person with the surname Xi to see me; two, bring me to your mother.

Zhao Yu was overjoyed upon hearing these words. Without saying another word

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Zhao Yu kowtowed thrice before he rose to his feet. He ignored the pain on his forehead and hurriedly said, This way, please.

Subsequently, Zhao Yu led everyone to a quiet courtyard.

Lu Zhou stopped at the arched entrance and sniffed the air. Theres a very strong scent of medicinal herbs here

My mother needs medicinal herbs all year round. Her condition has worsened over the years so we grew many herbs here as well, Zhao Yu explained.

Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes. How filial.

When they walked inside, they saw several female attendants walking in and out of the building.

Zhao Yu ordered someone to send a message to Xi Qishu before he led Lu Zhou into the building.

When Xi Qishu received Zhao Yus message, he did not pay attention to it at all. He took a swig from the wine cup before he said cheerfully, The things I took from that brat are really amazing. After eating them, I can feel my energy surging, and it hasnt shown any sign of slowing down at all. Moreover, I can feel my cultivation improving as well.

The person seated next to Xi Qishu was Xian Gao, someone whom Xi Qishu treated like a brother. He said, Elder Brother, you deserve those things. Anyway, what are you going to do now that the brat wants to see you?

Xi Qishu said dismissively, Just because he wants to see, do I have to see him?

The duo laughed heartily.

Elder Brother, why dont I see him? I heard he still has a fire lotus in his possession, Xian Gao said.

Previously, Zhao Yu had obtained the fire lotus first. The snow lotus and blood ginseng that he obtained later were given to Xi Qishu for safekeeping.

Xi Qishu nodded. Go. However, hes still a Duke whose title was personally conferred by the emperor of Great Qin. Dont go too far.

Dont worry.

With that, Xiqi Shu nodded and said, Go. However, he is still a Duke personally conferred by the Qin emperor. Dont go too far.

Dont worry.

With that, Xian Gao flashed and headed to the Zhao Residence.

At the Zhao Residence.

Lu Zhou looked at the unconscious woman before he checked her pulse with two fingers.

A vague idea appeared in Lu Zhous mind after his divine power coursed through the womans Eight Extraordinary Meridians. After he withdrew his hand, he looked at Zhao Yu, who wore an expectant expression on his face, and asked, Are you sure those medicinal herbs are used to treat people?

Zhao Yu nodded. Then, he asked anxiously, Old sir, is there something wrong with the medicinal herbs?

Lu Zhou did not say anything. Instead, he brought the Golden Taixu Mirror out and secretly used the Concealment Card before shining the mirror on the woman on the bed.

When the light shone on his mother, Zhao Yu saw black gas emerging from his mothers body. His eyes widened in shock. H-hows this possible?

Lu Zhou turned around and shone the mirror on the herbs on the table.

Similarly, the medicinal herbs were emitting black gas as well.

Hows this possible? This was prescribed by Doctor Zhong. The attendants follow my orders strictly, Zhao Yu said as he continued shaking his head.

Lu Zhou said, This mirror can distinguish the truth, but it cant reveal peoples hearts.

Zhao Yu felt his mind go blank. If he could not understand the implications of Lu Zhous words, then he would be really stupid beyond saving. It was not that he had never doubted the people around him. He had changed the attendants in the residence many times and even personally recruited them.

Lu Zhou put the Golden Taixu Mirror away before he said, You dont need the blood ginseng, snow lotus, or fire lotus to treat her.

Zhao Yu regained his senses and asked, Truly? When Venerable Master Fan came to have a look at my mother, even he said she needed blood ginseng and the other herbs.

Venerable Master Fan?

Its not only Venerable Master Fan, but General Xi, General Bai, and the imperial physicians in the palace said the same thing. They told me I need those three things to treat my mother, Zhao Yu said. He still found it hard to believe Lu Zhous words.

You dont believe me? Lu Zhou asked.

Zhao Yu hurriedly waved his hand. No, no, no, I definitely believe you, old sir!

Lu Zhou turned around and raised his hand. A golden lotus bloomed above his palm before floating toward the woman.

Zhao Yu stared at his mother and the golden lotus, too nervous to breathe.

Following that, the golden lotus spun above the woman, bursting with vitality energy. It quickly dispersed the black gas.

Suddenly, the sound of fighting rang from outside.

Outside the building, two figures exchanged palm strikes.

Who are you? I want to see Young Master Zhao, Xian Gao said as he looked at Mingshi Yin.

Mingshi Yin looked at the person in front of him for a moment before he said, Youre Xi Qishus man?

How dare you address my brother by his name! Get lost! Xian Gao said before launching a palm seal.

Mingshi Yin held up his astrolabe and blocked the green palm seal. He said, Xi Qishu should come here himself.

If it werent for Young Master Zhao, do you think youd still be alive? Xian Gao asked.

At this time, Zhao Yu ran out, waving his hand as he said, Its a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding! Stop fighting!

Xian Gao said, Young Master Zhao, Elder Brother sent me here after receiving your message. I didnt expect that you have guests here. I apologize for my disrespect.

Zhao Yu said, Hes a friend. Why isnt General Xi here?

General Xi asked me to deliver a message. He has found clues. However, he needs the fire lotus to lure the thief out. So Xian Gao trailed off meaningfully.

Zhao Yu frowned. The fire lotus?

Young Master Zhao, dont worry. Were just using it as bait. With Elder Brother and I making a move, well definitely catch the thief, Xian Gao said.

How do you know I have the fire lotus?

This was a rhetorical question.

Xian Gao quickly recovered before he said with a smile, Young Master Zhao went to the Unknown Land to look for three things. Its impossible for you to return if you only obtained two things.

Mingshi Yin shook his head and said with a sigh, What a terrible acting skill and shoddy excuse.

Xian Gao said, slightly angry, Young Master Zhao, believe it or not, the blood ginseng and the snow lotus are almost within General Xis grasp.

Zhao Yus expression turned solemn as he said, Tell General Xi to come and see me.

Are you joking, Young Master Zhao? Xian Gao was slightly taken aback.

Xian Gao, Ill say it one more time. Tell General Xi to come and see me, Zhao Yu said.

Xian Gao cursed in his heart. Outwardly, he said, Understood. Ill return and convey Young Master Zhaos message.

Before Xian Gao turned to leave, he glanced at Mingshi Yin and smiled coldly. Just as he was about to turn, he heard a thunderous voice.

Stop.

Huh? Xian Gao felt chills running his spine. When he turned to look, he saw a Fiend Monks Hand seal that was dozens of feet tall shooting toward him at lightning speed.

Bam!

The Fiend Monks Hand Seal landed on Xian Gao. He was shocked. He felt as though all the power in his body was being suppressed.

Bam!

The Fiend Monks Hand Seal continued pressing Xian Gao down.

Xian Gao said through gritted teeth, You dare to

Before Xian Gao could finish his words, the Fiend Monks Hand Seal closed around him.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 1,500 merit points.

With these, Xian Gao went from having nine Birth Charts to zero Birth Charts. He looked up as fear gripped his heart tightly. When he tilted his head slightly, he saw Lu Zhou standing calmly in the courtyard.

Zhao Yu was also shocked by this scene. He asked, Old sir, y-y-you W-why Y-you Hes General Xis man; you cant kill him.

Lu Zhou waved his hand expressionlessly.

Bam!

The Fiend Monks Hand Seal tightened one last time around Xian Gao.

At the same time, Lu Zhou asked, Is he better than Tuoba Sicheng?

Lu Zhous meaning was clear: he could even kill Tuoba Sicheng, a Venerable Master; was there a need for him to spare someone like Xian Gao for someone like Xi Qishu?

Crack!

Ding! Killed one target. Reward: 2,000 merit points.. Domain bonus: 1,000 merit points.
