C350 (1/2)

After Qi Yang heard these words, his eyes widened. He wanted to say something, but was stopped by the hair on the Xanthium, making it impossible for him to breathe.

”Do you think I'm following you just to be a lackey? However, someone like you, who does not learn or know anything, can also participate in Chinese Medicine Competition this time around.

Xanthium chuckled, ”Thank you for giving me this chance.”

”You, you …”

Qi Yang uttered out a few words with great difficulty.

”Ah, right. I forgot to introduce him to you. Actually, I'm from the Miao Boundary.”

Without waiting for Qi Yang to react, Xanthium immediately pummeled him to death.

”That was tiring.”

Xanthium Mao looked at Qi Yang's corpse, dragged it to the side and hid it well.

”Say, if you don't mind, you might be able to live a little longer. This is really the truth. If you don't seek death, you won't die.”

Xanthium patted his hands and left the room.

On the other side, Hua Rou was still continuing to search for the truth, wanting to find the person behind all of this.

”Miss, you should rest for a while. It's been two days already, don't tire your body out.”

a steward who looked like a housekeeper asked with deep concern.

”No, I must find it!”

Hua Rou was still not willing to give up. She then looked at the butler and said: ”Uncle Hua, don't worry, I will take good care of myself, but this matter, I need to find out what it is. Now, help me keep an eye on it, I will go and see Shi Lei.”

Because such a huge thing had happened, Manor Owner was also very concerned about Shi Lei's situation.

Even though everyone knew that the Five Poisons Cartilage Powder was hopeless and had declared Shi Lei's death, no one was willing to give up just like that.

However, Hua Rou rejected Manor Owner's good intentions. Other than the time that she needed to go out and find the culprit, she would rather not have anyone else around him.

”I'm worried. If someone else sneaks in, wouldn't it be very dangerous?”

This was what Hua Rou had said to the Manor Owner.

With such a powerful Hua Rou, even the Manor Owner had no choice but to agree.

When he arrived at Shi Lei's room, Shi Lei was still lying on the bed as usual. His lips were still pale white, and it was impossible to tell if he had any chance of survival.

Even though he was still breathing, Shi Lei had lost all consciousness.

Hua Rou took out a bucket of water from the bathroom and placed it on the bedside table, then carefully wiped Shi Lei's face.

However, as if he had felt something, Hua Rou's movements paused for a moment, and after a few seconds, he continued to do his own thing.

Hua Rou looked at Shi Lei and said, ”When will you wake up? Although everyone is saying that I myself know that the Five Poisons Cartilage is something that cannot be saved, but I know that you are not an ordinary person, so you must definitely be able to think of a way to save yourself.”

While talking, Hua Rou started to cry.

”Say, you saved so many people, if you can't even save yourself, isn't it very useless? I don't want to travel with useless people. ”

He cried for a very long time, as if he was trying to tell others about his bravery in front of outsiders.

”Alright, you should rest up. I'm going out. Remember to be strong.”

With that, Hua Rou walked out.

After the sound of the door closing, Shi Lei, who should have been poisoned and heavily injured on the sickbed, suddenly acted as if nothing had happened and sat up from the sickbed.
