Chapter 94 Extreme Urgency

Once Long Chen had carried Manhuang Hou dozens of miles away, he threw him to the ground . Manhuang Hou was already so heavily wounded that just that caused him to spit out more blood .

Having been hit by the arrow Long Chen had thrown so powerfully, his organs had already been shaken into pieces . But as a Blood Condensation expert, the blood in his body contained a great deal of life energy, so he wouldn’t die immediately .

“Zhou Weiqing, tell me, how should I kill you?”

Long Chen looked down at this man who was once a powerful expert in his eyes, his voice filled with an icy coldness .

If it was just a personal enmity between the two of them, Long Chen wouldn’t mind giving him a quick death . But thinking back to the corpses of those villagers and the sorrowful expressions of the villagers, his hatred of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d exploded .

He didn’t know just what manner he could kill Zhou Weiqing that would relieve his anger . He only coldly contemplated this, thinking of a suitable method .

“Long… Long Chen, don’t kill me! I’ll tell you all my secrets! I was also forced, so I was also helpless!”

Currently, Manhuang Hou was as pale as a sheet of paper . He could feel his life force quickly fading . Right now the only one that could save him was Long Chen who was a Pill Cultivator .

In order to save his own life, this proud and arrogant n.o.ble no longer cared about anything and even begged Long Chen for mercy .

“Does saying that have any meaning at this time? I already know that everything was planned by the fourth prince . As long as I return to the capital, everything will be revealed . There is no need for you to talk,” coldly snorted Long Chen .

“No, no, Long Chen, the situation is definitely not as simple as you think! As long as you promise to let me go, I’ll tell you something extremely urgent that definitely won’t disappoint you!” hastily said Manhuang Hou .

Long Chen coldly said, “Speak . If it really is helpful to me, I won’t mind leaving you alive . ”

Manhuang Hou celebrated and hastily said, “Your household has already been captured and placed into prison . They’re currently waiting to be executed . ”

“What?!”

Long Chen’s expression changed and he harshly shouted, “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you dare try to trick me?”

“No! I definitely don’t dare trick you!”

“Once Aman returned to the capital, he should have definitely gone to protect my family . How could they possibly be captured? Furthermore, even if Aman didn’t inform him, how could grandmaster Yun Qi just watch without lifting a finger?” raged Long Chen .

“Aman truly did rush to your family as soon as possible, but he wasn’t able to protect your household . ”

“Why not?” Even with Long Chen’s calm, he was still panicking now .

“Cough, cough… I…” Manhuang Hou wanted to speak but an intense bout of coughing overcame him .

Long Chen coldly snorted . Manhuang Hou was getting smart and resorting to petty tricks . He threw down a medicinal pill . “Take it, it’ll heal your wounds . ”

“Many thanks young master . ”

Manhuang Hou hastily swallowed . He had always kept an eye on Long Chen, and he knew he was just like his father and would take his promises seriously .

But he only agreed to let him go and hadn’t promised to heal his wounds . If Long Chen left, he wouldn’t even be able to support himself for more than a couple hours before the spiritual qi in his blood was exhausted .

And within those few hours, he was completely unable to walk out of this forest to find help, so he would definitely die . There was no choice but to admit that Manhuang Hou truly did have a cunning side .

“If I tell you everything, you have to keep your promise and not make things hard for me . ” After taking that medicinal pill, Manhuang Hou was surprised to see his damaged organs were slowly healing back, meaning Long Chen’s medicinal pill truly was very effective .

But he once more repeated himself in order to be cautious . In Long Chen were to back out his promise, it would be impossible for him to survive .

“Don’t worry, I will use the Long family’s reputation to guarantee it,” coldly snorted Long Chen .

Hearing that, Manhuang Hou was relieved . With Long Chen’s pride, the chance of him reneging on his promise was low .

“Once Aman returned to your home, he immediately alerted your mother . But they were unable to leave the Long household . ”

“Why not?”

“Because they had all been poisoned,” answered Manhuang Hou .

Long Chen’s expression became incredibly unsightly . “Who did that?!”

“You mother’s family did it . They’re actually spies of the fourth prince . They had always been secretly controlling the Long household . When Aman returned, he was too weak and he was also too hungry to have any strength . As soon as he warned the Long household, they were all poisoned with an extremely invisible poison . Normally it will conceal itself in the body . With your experience, you should also have heard of the Soul-Scattering Powder?” carefully probed Manhuang Hou .

Long Chen’s expression became even gloomier . The fact that Manhuang Hou had said the Soul-Scattering Powder meant that he was telling the truth .

Soul-Scattering Powder was an extremely rarely seen medicinal ingredient . Its poisonous nature wasn’t actually strong, but it could confuse a person’s spirit, causing them to enter a suspended animation state of fake death . Other than some people with strong Spiritual Strength, there were few that could block it .

And this kind of medicinal ingredient was colorless and odorless . Ordinary people were unable to recognize it . As soon as they smelt the Soul-Scattering Powder, they would immediately sink into a deep sleep .

Long Chen had never thought that the fourth prince’s schemes would be so profound . His hatred of his mother’s family also grew as he recalled their hypocritical faces . At this time they had landed a fatal blow against his family .

Thinking of his mother who had been captured, a burning urgency filled him . He wanted to rush back to the capital immediately to save his mother .

“What happened with grandmaster Yun Qi?” Long Chen suddenly felt that something was strange . Was grandmaster Yun Qi not blocked?

“At that time, grandmaster Yun Qi was in seclusion to refine pills . Furthermore, this matter was done extremely covertly . Grandmaster Yun Qi didn’t know of it, and once he knew, your family had already been imprisoned . At that time, he personally went to the imperial palace to demand that they release him, but the Empress Dowager showed him the photographic jade evidence of you killing the Grand Xia’s prince, and so grandmaster Yun Qi was also helpless,” explained Manhuang Hou .
