503 Exposing Yu Guang (2/2)
Even Chen Zikuang was shocked. The pressure seemed to not be beneath the Golden Elixir realm. It was comparable to that of a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. He never imagined that Mo Wen actually had such frightening cultivation. Didn't Zi'er say before this that Mo Wen was just a Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art practitioner? How could he suddenly reach the Golden Elixir realm?
Chen Zikuang naturally did not doubt his own daughter. But he was also aware that something had certainly gone wrong. Maybe Zi'er had also been kept in the dark. He could not believe that a person who was at the Qi Nucleation realm a month ago could reach the Golden Elixir realm within a month. It was practically nonsense.
Mo Wen extended a hand and directly caught Yu Guang in his palm. The corner of his mouth curled into a cruel smile. With the flick of a finger, tens of golden needles flew out, directly shooting into Yu Guang's body.
The next moment, Yu Guang seemed to have fallen into Avichi. He started screaming shrilly. Even those who did not know what it meant to be better off dead than alive immediately knew once they saw Yu Guang now.
Chen Zikuang frowned. Yu Guang was still a member of the Medical Sect. He still came to Intentionless Sect to treat the old grandfather. If they could find incriminating evidence on him, that was still fine. If they could not and he had been tortured for no reason, the Intentionless Sect would most probably not be able to escape responsibility.
However, he did not say anything. This matter involved the safety of his father's life. With such a serious matter, not one suspect could be let go.
”Stop...ah...ouch...b*stard....stop it I said...stop…” Yu Guang kept on screaming. In less than fifteen minutes, he had already softened up. He kept begging for mercy, and had admitted to poisoning the old grandfather.
”Soft boned.” Mo Wen coldly smiled. He probed slightly with his palm, then took a paper bag from Yu Guang's clothes and simply threw it onto a table nearby.
Since Yu Guang had to administer the poison every day, the poison would surely be hidden in a place where he could easily retrieve it. It would not be too hidden, otherwise, it would be troublesome for himself. Mo Wen did not need him to admit it. He could just directly find the poison.
Chen Zikuang's eyes narrowed. He walked with large steps to the table and opened the paper bag. In the paper bag was a smaller package. And in that smaller package was some green powdery substance.
”As expected, it was you, you crook!” When Chen Zikuang saw this, rage flared up in him. He was so angry that his blood began to boil. Wasn't the green powdery substance the poison from before? This Yu Guang appeared to be treating old grandfather on the surface, but in secret, he was actually always poisoning him. Chen Zikuang could not wait to quickly kill Yu Guang.
For the Intentionless Sect and Chen Zikuang, this was a huge insult! It turned out that the culprit had been beside the old grandfather all along.
”Mo Wen, please give him to me. I want to skin him and pull out his tendons, then grind his bones into dust.” Chen Zikuang was purple with rage. He had treated Yu Guang as an honored guest. He had always hoped that Yu Guang would manage to cure his father. But he had never imagined that he had allowed such an ungrateful soul to be by his side.
Mo Wen casually threw Yu Guang at Chen Zikuang's feet. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. He crossed his arms, appearing as if he was watching a show.
”Zikuang, you interrogate him and see why he wanted to harm me. See whether it is related to the Sacred Flame Sect.” Old Grandfather Chen opened his eyes again and slowly woke up. This old grandfather looked as though he was unconscious, but in reality, he was more conscious at times than people who seemed to be fully conscious. Once there were any stirrings, he would be aware of it.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zikuang seemed to have figured out the key to the problem. Yu Guang was only a doctor from the Medical Sect. He had no grievances with the Intentionless Sect, so why would he secretly poison the old grandfather? There was certainly some conspiracy at play.
As expected, after a round of inquiry, Chen Zikuang discovered that this Yu Guang, who was from the Medical Sect, had always had connections with the Sacred Flame Sect. When Old Grandfather Chen was injured and poisoned, Yu Guang coincidentally appeared in the Intentionless City by the arrangements of the Sacred Flame Sect.
It could be said that back when Old Grandfather Chen was in the Beast's Lair and was heavily injured, returning poisoned, the Sacred Flame Sect had already arranged for a series of conspiracies and traps. All of this was to eliminate the Intentionless Sect and devour its centuries of heritage.
Once this was all revealed, Yu Guang of course faced disaster. Chen Zikuang did not kill him on the spot, instead locking him up. As for how he wanted to deal with Yu Guang, no one else knew.
”Little friend Mo, I thank you for your help in this matter. Even I was kept in the dark. The members of the Sacred Flame Sect are certainly vicious.” After Yu Guang was taken away, Old Grandfather Chen turned his gaze to Mo Wen. He had a look of gratitude in his eyes.
